Politics / Buhari Cannot Deny Jonathan's Achievements - Mustapha Abdulrahman by Aksonman: 1:22pm On Aug 22, 2015
Mustapha Abdulrahman


Words they say are cheap and nothing is as
sweet as beating up the weeping boy as all,
including weaklings suddenly gain strength and
bury their own weaknesses in the collective
attack. Unfortunately, it bellies current failures
and provide a ready platform for discuss even
when we know the lie in it.
No situation affords the above assertion better
expression than what has become the order of
the day in casting former President Goodluck
Jonathan in bad light; selling him as a total
failure even in the face of realities. We know that
the heart does not lie but the tongue is deceitful;
so one wonders why even respected men choose
to live the lie because that is the vogue.
Examples to prove the point are legion and
glaring for which one would have been tempted
to gloss over them except for the fact that
Nigerians have started acting too early as if we
are suffering from collective amnesia on the issue
of Jonathan’s performance given the
circumstances.
Most painful is the fact that we have soon
forgotten the accolades that attended the
reformation of our international gateways and the
advertorials that graced newspapers showering
praises on how things had changed. The question
that rushes to ones lips is “Are we being fair to
Jonathan by painting him with the tar of general
lack of performance? Can we stand the pricking
of our conscience over the issue of realities of
crediting one man with the success of another
just to scurry favour?
There were certain things that had left our
memories which the Jonathan administration
restored to our collective psyche and never in the
annals of the country’s history was freedom of
expression given such a handle as under his
regime. He paid dearly for it with the abuses
which it appears people have been fixated on
long after he gracefully left the stage.
It is incontrovertible that in every sense of it, his
transformation agenda really transformed the
country in all sectors though the rot in the system
which had endured over the years seemed to taint
his efforts; but if truth be told, he left giant
marks which his traducers have been working
assiduously to rubbish without success and in the
process; celebrate their own ignorance and lack
of direction.
Rather than fall into the common mistake of
attacking ideas and people, it is more honourable
and respectable to take some issues and address
them to prove that Nigerians will be lucky to have
President Muhammadu Buhari leave marks on the
political and developmental space like Jonathan
did. Without even starting, cries are all Nigerians
are getting from the present regime which
unknown to them, is preparing grounds for the
explanation of its would be failures.
Jonathan approached governance with a
developmental mind with the best intentions for
the country. He placed national interest above
self, a reason he chose a different path by
conceding victory no matter how it was won just
for the country to be at peace. A retrospective
look will reveal how his opponents in no distant
past took their losses at the polls and the
hundreds of Nigerian lives, property and
animosities that went into it. That alone places
him head above all Nigerian politicians and bellied
his considerations for the country. Simply put, he
transformed the Nigerian psyche, giving us an
opportunity to think straight once more.
Another funny thing that has become the order of
the day for example is the praises being showered
on President Buhari over the improvement of
power supply across the country. Yes, power
generation and distribution have generally
improved but it was not a feat that was achieved
overnight because it is not like putting on your
generator at home and getting light immediately.
Power involves intricate processes that include
building of infrastructure, the turbines, gas supply,
the generation, wheeling, transmission and
distribution before Nigerians get the power in their
homes. The question is what has the present
administration done from May till now to have
put those things in place? It is simply the result
of what Jonathan did that Buhari is getting the
praises for. It is like a hunter who shot a game
that in the thrashing of death goes somewhere
else to die and picked by a nursing mother and
everyone starts to sing her praise for killing a big
game. Jonathan updated the transmission
backbone of the country which was unable to
carry above 3000 megawatts; built substations,
massively brought in transformers and completed
generating stations across the country that
radically increased the generation capacity of the
country.
At a point, notwithstanding that gas is not like
crude oil that thieves could puncture the pipelines
to steal, yet each time power peaked within his
tenure, saboteurs would cut the gas supply and
power will drop. What has the present regime
done to stop that other than those who were
doing it have simply stopped because power has
changed hands? Anything that is seen in
improvement of power in the coming years
remains a credit to Jonathan; even Buhari knows
that.
Another funny assertion is that refineries in the
country coming back on stream three months
after the new regime took over were the
handiwork of Buhari. The simple question to ask
is how long does Turn Around Maintenance
(TAM) of a refinery take? What for example is the
average time and process of replacing the
Catalytic Cracking Unit (CCU) of a refinery like
happened with the Port Harcourt refinery?
Answers to these questions would show that it
takes an average of 18 months for TAM and even
longer to procure and install CCU since it is not
an on-the-shelf part; yet gullible Nigerians are
plied with sweet stories of what is not. The fact
again is that Jonathan’s regime turned around
the refineries and any result coming in that sector
goes to only one person, Jonathan.
Prior to the coming of the Jonathan
administration, road travel had but died across
the country. How many kilometers of motorable
roads did we have before then? Travelers between
Lagos and Benin, Edo State slept more on the
road than the days they made the journey in a
day. The Ore axis if it had mouth, would have
testified to how many travelers it swallowed
through accidents, not to talk of those it hosted
in traffic snarls while armed robbers had field
days. Yet those who ply the route now can attest
to the difference. Soon too, maybe, those would
be credited to the vaunted “change”. Roads
across the northern parts of the country are even
better now as more works were done there. Some
bridges conceived in the 70s and left in the
drawing board breathed the air of realisation
under Jonathan while the South East which has
the worst roads also got some relief. There is no
part of the country that did not feel the road
rehabilitation and construction. We await Buhari
to surpass those records.
Airports across the country could be said to have
had the best of it as modernisation spread evenly
for the first time since our independence under
Stella Oduah as Minister. Even today, no one can
without covering his face in shame; say Jonathan
did not reform our airports from Lagos to Kano,
Sokoto to Kaduna, Calabar to Owerri, Benin to
Abuja and Enugu airport which started enjoying
international flights. Jonathan had a fair mind so
much that developments other heads of State had
vowed would be executed over their dead bodies
are now functional when they are still alive.
Rail transportation which is supposed to take
pressure off our roads died long time ago. Also,
the political and military class used it as the
worst conduit pipe to drain resources for years
without anything to show for it. Infact, rather
than shop for tar list to nail Jonathan with, one
thought that the present regime would probe the
rail contracts prior to the time Jonathan revived
it. Today, Lagos to Kaduna, Kano route is back
on stream, Port Harcourt-Maiduguri is also back
on stream among many long hauls. The speed rail
between Kaduna and Abuja is nearing completion
while modern coaches and heads have been
brought into the country, yet people are behaving
as if they are not seeing.
Can one remember the amount the country lost to
food importation even with the land mass that it
is blessed with? Have we forgotten that fertilizer
importation, allocation and distribution created
emergency billionaires while the real farmers that
needed them never had access to that necessary
farm input? Can we remember how rice farmers
craved for patronage and milling machines
without getting positive response from the
required quarters? Do we not know now that we
are inching towards self-sufficiency in rice
productions? How many people know that Nigeria
is the highest cassava producer in the world? So
many milestones the mind could not fathom in
the past were achieved in agriculture under
Jonathan. We thank God that Buhari is a farmer;
we shall see how far he would consolidate on
what Jonathan did.
One thing that needs be said is that even though
the achievements are like work in progress, the
effect of those projects are going to be positively
felt decades from now and therefore beyond
Buhari’s tenure, so posterity should be kind
enough to credit Jonathan with his good works.
Coming to the issue of statesmanship, he still
stands head above everyone which has lionised
Jonathan in the African continent and beyond.
How many sitting heads of state ever conceded
defeat at a poll they superintended? What would
have happened if he decided to contest the
results with all the proof of underage voting and
the lopsided distribution of permanent voters
cards? Have we forgotten the assertion of the
“baboon and the monkey to be soaked in blood”
should a particular candidate lose the elections?
He is not in the category of desperate politician
who wants to be in power by all means. We can
remember not in the distant past, the sharing of
the treasury to elongate constitutional given days
in power by some who today are masquerading
as political saints, yet Jonathan sacrificed the
office for peace.
He had the army, police and other security
apparatchik at his control to have foisted himself
in power or even put up credible challenge to the
election results but refrained from doing so
because of the thousands that would have died
from the aftermath. Putting the nation first, he
saved lives.
From the foregoing, should we attack a man
because he refused to pull punches? Should his
peaceful disposition be taken for weakness and
therefore pummeled with the notion that he lacks
power to go into an offensive or defend himself?
Caution should be exercised when aiming a
sledge hammer on the skulls of the innocent.
Every Nigerian has been a victim of the fraud in
government; while some looted the treasury
within very short periods of time and are
answering statesmen today, others try to hide
theirs in bantes and aso oke, casting the
impression of piety and modesty but we know
that their worth when they assumed power is not
what it is today after selling our common
patrimony to themselves and cronies in the name
of privatization and yet they bask in the euphoria
of being protected from probes.
Probe is good but why not being fair to all and
probe every regime, at least within the era of
democratic rule? It appears the probe is just
another name for going after Jonathan who pre-
scientifically had warned his ministers to brace
up for persecution. Apply the golden rule and
probe all instead of picking and choosing
In the event the suspicions of reasonable minds
that Jonathan is the target hold true, know that
the seed of discord has been sown unless the
plot is to tar a certain section of the country in
order to exclude them from power in the future.
Humiliating Jonathan is humiliating the office of
the President and the consequences can be dire
after all, there had been probes without
consequences in the past.

Politics / Buhari's New Nigeria: Peace, Progress And Propaganda by Aksonman: 4:02pm On Jul 26, 2015
Very apt. undecided

http://www.thebreakingtimes.com/buharis-new-nigeria-peace-progress-and-propaganda/

Buhari's New Nigeria: Peace, Progress And Propaganda.

For Nigeria, a new era started on May 29th 2015; for the first time in our nation’s history an incumbent President from the ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) was successfully voted out of office and a new President from the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) sworn in. President Muhammadu Buhari after three failed attempts at the polls is now Nigeria’s democratically elected President at the ripe old age of seventy two. President Buhari is no stranger to governance as he had been Nigeria’s military Head of State between 1983 and 1985, after deposing democratically elected President Shehu Shagari in a coup.

President Buhari’s emergence and the journey so far, though too early to evaluate, has thrown up interesting contradictions in the Nigerian polity. The 2015 election campaigns that secured victory for many APC candidates nationwide was the most competitive, vibrant and expensive in Nigeria’s history. The APC’s mastery of the effective use of Propaganda gave them an edge that the over-confident PDP could not surpass. Both parties used Propaganda, but the APC’s was on an advanced scale, thanks to input from the likes of David Axelrod, an American political consultant whose savvy Public Relations strategy ensured Barack Obama’s two term victories at the US polls.

However, APC’s victory at the polls cannot be entirely attributed to Axelrod’s contribution; as a matter of fact the APC had already laid foundation for its victory as far back as 2012. The anti-subsidy removal protests and the massive rallies at Freedom Park-Ojota (Lagos) can best be described as APC’s first unofficial gathering, then known as Occupy Nigeria. The PDP and Goodluck Jonathan never really recovered from the propaganda based seed that was sown at Ojota in 2012, in spite of good intentions behind fuel subsidy removal.

When the APC was formed in February 2013, it did not relent, rather the party consolidated on its use of propaganda at every given opportunity. Sadly, national tragedies like Boko Haram and their nefarious activities in Northern Nigeria were somewhat infused in APC’s propaganda trajectory-and it worked.

Several dictionaries define ‘Propaganda’ as “information, ideas, or rumors deliberately spread widely to help or harm a person, group, movement, institution or nation.” Unknown to many, Propaganda also has hypnotic value, able to brainwash entire populations and make them dance to the rhythm of propagators. Majority of Nigerians that voted in the 2015 general elections were under that ‘propaganda spell’ cast by both PDP and APC. Fortunately or unfortunately, the then ruling PDP failed to offer effective counter-propaganda or a superior argument that would have diluted APC’s hypnosis and replaced with common sense.

The elections have come and gone, a new President sworn in and the mass-hypnosis is gradually wearing off, even as the APC struggles to sustain it.

As at the time of writing this article, President Buhari still has no cabinet in place, and word just got out that he may be presenting his ministerial list by September. Propaganda has its limitations; from May 29th till date many propaganda stories have been planted online and offline to cover-up obvious lapsed in President Buhari’s early approach to governance.

During the campaigns, General Buhari promised to declare his assets publicly; after inauguration, assets were declared quite alright, but privately. We heard news that President Buhari had ordered the sale of excess Presidential jets in order to cut cost, many jubilated, and that story was false too. Nigeria’s National Petroleum Company (NNPC) announced that the nation’s refineries were about to resume production, quickly word got out that the ‘fear of Buhari’ must have jolted our refineries back into action. It took Mr. President himself to appear on national television and ‘confess’ to not having a hand in the revitalization of our nation’s refineries before that narrative died off.

APC spokesman and Chief propagandist Alhaji Lai Mohammed had much earlier issued a statement outlining several early achievements of President Buhari that have already surpassed Goodluck Jonathan’s five-year rule. Notable was the claim that President Buhari had weakened Boko Haram and is currently swinging his hand in 360degrees motion about to give the terror sect a final death blow. Meanwhile, Boko Haram has killed almost a thousand Nigerians in roughly two months since Buhari took over as President.

During President Buhari’s recent visit to US President Obama at the White House, we were told (by his media team) that our President would become the first Nigerian ruler to lodge at the official guest house for the President of the United states called Blair house. Obviously, another propaganda story as many have come to realize that former President Olusegun Obasanjo and even Prime-Minister Tafawa Balewa once lodged at that same Blair house. In an interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, President Buhari signified his willingness to go into negotiations with Boko Haram’s “credible leaders” in order to secure the release of Chibok girls. Former President Jonathan at some point in his administration also expressed similar sentiments but was vilified by the same APC and their supporters. Besides, during 2015 election campaigns, Buhari and his APC promised to ‘crush’ Boko Haram; now it’s Negotiation?

From the look of things, President Buhari’s achievements in his first fifty days (or so) as President have been in form of Northern appointments, cute pictures and unverifiable populist stories. Perhaps the latest witch hunt on former allies of Ex-President Jonathan can also be added to Buhari’s list of early successes.

The Nigerian secret police (DSS) few days ago laid a 48 hour siege on the residence of former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki. To make matters worse, the leadership of DSS went further to release a statement accusing Dasuki of Treasonable culpability, justifying their undemocratic actions with claims of discovering incriminating evidence inside Sambo Dasuki’s home. An unbiased summary of the DSS’s statement suggests that the former National Security Adviser and middle aged man-Sambo Dasuki, was planning a one-man Rambo style onslaught on Aso Rock.

The reality on ground is that Nigeria has been on a standstill since Buhari’s APC government took over. The Nigerian Stock exchange continues to bleed, prices of goods and services are skyrocketing and Nigerians have gotten accustomed to regular fuel shortages once again. Nigeria is clearly operating on Retrogressive Auto-Pilot.

APC supporters and other prominent individuals have (rightfully) urged Nigerians to give President Buhari more time to fix Nigeria. There should also be a corresponding call to President Buhari and APC’s media team to stop dishing out unnecessary propaganda narratives to Nigerians. Nigerians also need time to recover from the intense propaganda they were subjected to at the 2015 elections, and come to terms with the sad reality that most of APC’s outrageous campaign promises will not be met.

In local parlance,but seriously, Fayose should be tied before he starts running to the market unclad to look for Buhari.

Don't be silly, APC has just told a ridiculous LIE to gullible supporters and you are here attacking Fayose?

Has Fayose not done a patriotic duty by exposing APC's lies? If a fraudulent APC/Buhari wins the 2015 elections, won't he exercise powers over Ekiti people too?

So, I ask what's wrong with Fayose exposing APC's lies to his people and the nation in general?

Politics / APC's Social Media Fails To Improved Buhari's Popularity - Thisday Report by Aksonman: 9:57pm On Feb 08, 2015
Jonathan and Buhari

The upcoming presidential election in Nigeria is no doubt the current trending topic in Nigeria today and Impact social, a company who specialise in analysis of social media and its impact on politics and policy has over a 4 day period, employed the use of a social media tool which tracks every single conversation, live. All Twitter, Facebook, blogs, 50 million websites, forums etc can be read by them. Information is subsequently graded into Positive, Negative and Neutral to estimate the social media electorate’s view on the most mentioned candidates (JONATHAN/PDP and BUHARI/APC)

Find below the findings of the company’s recent research highlighting social media’s sentiments on the candidates representing PDP & APC.

GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN/ PDP
Positivity towards GEJ personally remains a key driver of the PDP campaign (70% positive / 30% negative). There are still some negative issues weighing down the GEJ camp (Buhari, Chibok, postponement of the election) but again these are “compound” with no single issue driving significant levels of negativity. There is work to do on some of the key issues (infrastructure, education) but in this period messaging on the economy has taken up (6%) of the conversation and is seen as a key GEJ / PDP strength. There is positive sentiment towards the PDP itself with a consistent message around support for GEJ. This period might be characterised as one of good control from the PDP / GEJ camp and shows good potential to keep pressing home the big issues Nigerians care about. This analysis was conducted using random, representative samples of over 40,000 tweets, facebook posts, blogs, forums and news sites in Nigeria which mention PDP or GEJ. Our analysis methodology is proven to be at least 95% accurate.

GENERAL MUHAMMED BUHARI
The conversation is dominated by a general discussion of politics which is neither positive or negative. There are lots of “noisy” side issues being discussed, but these are not being used as a campaign platform to gain traction. Indeed there has been some frustration voiced that APC is not focusing on important issues. It might be said that the campaign lacks consistency and content. Interestingly, momentum around endorsement and vocal support has not carried through despite being prominent on the campaign trail the week before. If anything the lack of message penetration by APC will give

encouragement to the GEJ campaign teams to keep its focus on key drivers (economy, infrastructure, agriculture and education) as it appears that APC has little impact on these issues. This analysis was conducted using random, representative samples of over 32,000 tweets, facebook posts, blogs, forums and news sites in Nigeria which mention APC / Buhari Our analysis methodology is proven to be at least 95% accurate.

Politics / Lagos State INEC Frustrating Non-indigenes From Collecting PVC. by Aksonman: 10:11am On Jan 29, 2015
People are talking.

Majority of uncollected PVC's in Lagos state (over 50%) belong to non-indigenes especially Igbos in Lagos.

APC has planted its agents as INEC Adhoc staff. PVC's with non-Yoruba names have been set aside, and when their owners emerge they are deliberately frustrated or delayed, some asked to pay money.

I have confirmed this incident from at least 4 people and I call on the authorities to look into it.

If you are facing same thing in Lagos, please share.

Politics / 3 Main Characteristics Of Buhari's South-West Supporters. by Aksonman: 10:40pm On Jan 27, 2015
MOST Yorubas will vote Goodluck Jonathan; the only Yorubas passionately supporting Buhari are:

1. Radical Muslim Yorubas

2. Yoruba members of RCCG (secretly praying for Buhari to die in office so that Osinbajo takes over)

3. Yoruba closet tribalists & Tinubu disciples.

Luckily again MOST Yorubas are free thinking liberals and are solidly behind GEJ.

Click 'LIKE' if you know I'm saying the truth.
