Why Buhari Is A Monumental Failure by Fernandeswagger(m): 5:58am On Jul 30, 2022
Why Buhari Is a Monumental Failure

We have on record a total of 62 promises Buhari made to Nigerians if elected president. Out of the 62, none has been fulfilled. I mean NONE. That is 0/62!

I will put forth the list as meticulously compiled by Hon Celestine Eronmosele, if there is anyone that you feel that Buhari has achieved, point it out and support your claim with facts and let's have a debate with you on that. If not, we can agree that Buhari has not ONLY failed but failed woefully and anyone supporting him or APC govt does not care about your good or the good of your children.

1. Ban on government officials from going abroad for medical treatment: FAILED

2. State and community policing: FAILED

3. Public declaration of assets and liabilities: FAILED

4. Introduction of National Gender Policy and offer of 35 per cent appointment to women: FAILED

5. Creation of three million jobs per year: FAILED

6. The revival of Ajaokuta Steel Company: FAILED

7. Creation of a Social Welfare Programme where a minimum of N5000 would be paid to 25 million poorest and most vulnerable citizens: FAILED

8. Building one of the fastest-growing emerging economies in the world with a real GDP growth averaging 10 per cent annually. FAILED

9. Generation, transmission and distribution of at least 20,000 MW of electricity within four years and increasing to 50,000 MW with a view to achieving 24/7 uninterrupted power supply within 10 years. FAILED

10. Empowerment scheme to employ 740,000 graduates across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. FAILED

11. Payment of allowances to the discharged but unemployed Youth Corps members for 12 months while in the skills and entrepreneurial development programme. FAILED

12. Establishment of a free-tuition and scholarship scheme for pupils who have shown exceptional aptitude in science subjects at O/Levels to study ICT-related courses. FAILED

13. Creation of 720,000 jobs by the 36 states in the federation per annum (20,000 per state) FAILED

14. Creating additional middle-class of at least 2 million new homeowners in our first year in government and 1 million annually thereafter. FAILED

15. Creating a National Conflict Resolution Commission to prevent, mitigate and resolve civil conflicts within the polity. FAILED

16. Building six centres of excellence to address the needs of special education – There is no evidence the government has initiated the building of the centres of excellence for special education in any zone in the country. FAILED

17. Establishing a national mortgage system to lend funds at single-digit interest rates for prospective homeowners. FAILED

18. Creating a national infrastructural development bank to provide loans at nominal interest rates exclusively for this sector – FAILED

25. Early identification of talents and making them participate in games locally and internationally to enable them to become professionals – FAILED

26. Giving up to 20 per cent of the national budget for the educational sector while also making substantial investments in training quality teachers at all levels – FAILED

The government has failed in this promise. It has never allocated up to 10 per cent of the national budget for education since it came into power. Currently, university lecturers are on strike while their Polytechnic counterparts have threatened to also embark on industrial action. The situation of the country’s education sector is far from improving.

31. Implementing a full erosion and shoreline protection across the country – FAILED

32. Protecting the rights of women as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution – FAILED

While the government has not taken any concrete action to protect the rights of women in the country, it has failed to defend women whose rights are grossly violated. For instance, Eunice Olawale, who was killed in Abuja while preaching and Bridget Agbahime and Deborah Emmanuel killed by mobs in Kano and Katsina respectively for alleged blasphemy. Many cases of women’s rights violation still abound across the country including their ridiculous sentencing to the kitchen and the “other room.”
