When it comes to political appointments and Nigerian presidents, the new guy is always worse than the previous one.

Where is the logical connective in what you just said

Only when you vote based on tribe, religion and sentiment.

Well, a loaf of bread costs more every time the country goes through inflation and the price never goes back to the initial cost.
Every time Govt tries to intervene, but they make it worse
With that logic in mind, you have a tool to work with.

Yaradua was better than obj.

jumper524:
Yaradua was better than obj.

but cost of commodities never came down,I think I get what he is saying.

What would be your metric? I am not saying you're wrong, though.

Yaradua was not worse he was an improvement on OBJ
Obj was an improvement on abacha

Don't let Jonathan and Buhari play you ...

Watch igbos voted Jonathan in 2011 , and haven't really voted since ....we will vote again in 2023 ... expect minimum of 5.5 million votes from Igbos or south east alone next year

Imo 1.3 minimum
Anambra 1.4 minimum
Abia 1 million minimum
Enugu 900k minimum
Ebonyi 500k minimum

Expect rivers and Delta to be over 1.2 million each ... expect akwa Ibom and cross River to be 1 million each ... expect Edo to be 1 million ...obi is expected to get 60% of all this south south states

Expect Igbo voters in Lagos to be over 1 million this time around

Obi would score 12.5 million votes ... would that be enough ? I doubt ...but obi would make so much of an impact that it would change Nigeria political landscape win or lose

in terms of lame Nigerians analysis.
But in reality, my brother I think the worst president should start from the first president who despite finding things easier, didn't set up a long term visionary prospect that would secure the future of the country.
The country is not where it is today because of current leaders, it is where it is today because of lack of vision from previous leaders.
Lagos, kano, and anambra today are not oweing workers because it's past leaders had set a standard and planned the future of the states properly but same can't be said of other states.
Kogi would always say late prince Audu is there best leader and would have done better than yahaya Bello because he didn't owe salaries during his old term as governor but that can't be said if Audu was still alive and governor cos the truth is that just like yahaya Bello, he too would owe salaries and the reason is simple, growth in population in 2 while growth in productivity in 1.
Now that's the same scenario of Nigeria presidency.

If obj had curb away almajiri system and regulate birth rate base on income at his early stage while he was president and same time set up real standard amongst those northern illetrates.
I'm sure by now those bringing terrorism from west African to Nigeria would find it much difficult to penetrate because there would be little reason to compromise amongst the northerners.

Citizens don't need governments interventionist social programs when people have a good employment and are paid more that a living wage.

The unemployment rate and the erosion of trust between the government and the governed is the worst thing to happen to a country.

I don't like Govt. interventions but some people would rather have "Big Brother" handling things. ie compulsory environmental sanitation on the last Saturday of the month led to some results, queues, etc.
Nigerians can't see themselves stopping at the red light, you need some traffic police to get people to do the right thing. New Govt, New rules and they often exacerbate the problem
