No we can start holding buhari responsible if he fails. but he won't. I have never made a wrong decision in my life

geesilver:
Fashola we believe you are capable base on your track record in lagos state. All we want is result, we don't care what it takes to get the job done. Ensure that @ the end of this administration we can be guarantee ( least 12-16 hours regular supply of electricity in a day otherwise all your past achievement would be seen as a scam.

Lagos N8bn Sunborn Yacht deal, bad business — APC

At least the way the President addressed the lingering fuel scarcity shows Maturity unlike the minister for information

refreshrate:
Been on queue for fuel over 2hours now

Naira on free fall I bought deodorant spray the other day for 1,200 the last one that finished was 600!

No light

So those of us that have nothing to do with corruption are meant to die off or what?

Was it efcc he was elected to run or the entire country and all departments?

banio:
Fashola is in Abuja but deaf and dumb now

In July 2014, Buhari’s SUV was attacked and damaged. Two SUVs were given to him to replace the damaged one. The two-for-one replacement contravenes section 3(1) of the Remuneration of Former Presidents and Heads of State Act of 2004. According to that Act, Buhari is not entitled to any new vehicles until 2016; and certainly not from the office of the NSA. We can expect to hear more “fabus” on this issue as the case continues to go out of control.

The rate at which important matters disappear in this present regime is alarming. I know I will still be tagged a wailer so let me go straight to the point and list some of the news...

1. The inclusion of Nigeria as a member of the Islamic Military Alliance led by Saudi Arabia... shadowed by Mr. President's birthday

2. The investigative panel promised by PMB to look into the Lebanese ISIS Leader caught at Beirut airport on his way to Nigeria

3. The recent extrajudicial killings of the members of the Shiite sect on their routine procession and the massacre of peaceful Biafran agitators who were protesting for the release of Nnamdi Kanu

4. Fellow Nigerians, how far with the Remita Case?

5. Dasukigate.. ever since he squealed baba's name, everything quiet.

6. Bayelsa Elections

7. N4.7bn conjured up from the empty treasury for the senators to lavish on cars

8. The social media gag bill

9. The girls kidnapped in Bam village. where is Oby
www.thisdaylive.com/articles/boko-haram-kills-four-abducts-teenage-girls-in-borno/226751/

10. 105+34+x number of soldiers rumoured to be missing /killed?

the list is much...

I just need some one to help me understand.

cool speech......but I would have been happier if he had tried to charge the Senate on the way they spend.... billions of naira are to be spent on purchasing cars and no body is saying anything. that is day light robbery.

PhockPhockMan:
But Buhari, in the document titled, ‘I pledge to Nigeria’ had also said that all his political appointees would only earn salaries and allowances as prescribed by the Revenue and Mobilisation and Fiscal Allocation Commission.

He said, “I pledge to publicly declare my assets and liabilities, encourage all my appointees publicly declare their assets and liabilities as a pre-condition for appointment. All political appointees will only earn the salaries and allowances determined by the RMFAC. I pledge, as Commander-in-Chief, to lead from the front and not behind in the comfort and security of Aso Rock, to boost the morale of fighting forces and the generality of all Nigerians.”

Dollarization Of The APC Primaries: How Amaehi Vanquished Atiku #saibuhari

The blogosphere was inundated with reports of the excessive sharing of dollars at the All Progressives Congress which took place during the latter part of last week.

One APC supporter and Special Adviser to Osun Governor on Environment, BolaIlori had blown the scandal open after he saw the beginning stages of the dollarization in action.

He took to his Facebook page and scribbled, “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these cannot represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants to is to say the least obscene. I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to…delegates certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want…those who contributed to the pauperization of Nigeria now revel in dollarization… majority of Ondo delegates are still standing with Buhari but have been reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours…the remaining has gone with dollars ooo.!!!!!”

One has to wonder how Buhari was able to win the primaries in this era of stomach infrastructure where dollars are like the Biblical manna that God sent down from heaven to nourish the Israelites as they made their way to the promised land.

Sources close to the APC with knowledge of the way the Primaries unfolded have revealed that it was Rivers State Governor, Amaechi who flew back to Rivers State and returned to Lagos on Thursday morning with enough dollars to make Benjamin Franklin blush.

It has been revealed that Atiku offered the delegates $5000 each, but Amaechi doubled it to $10000 a pop. Thus turning the tables in favour of General Buhari.

Since his adventure into the APC, Amaechi has gone out of his way to prove himself a party loyalist, always the first to shoki or azonto at the many events the APC holds, which he himself is usually the chief sponsor.

According to party insiders, Amaechi has overtaken Tinubu as the major financier of the party. One does not need to wonder why he is always at President Jonathan’s throat over misappropriated oil wells or other such business. Anything that diminishes from the State’s coffers will have a ripple effect on his funding budget for the APC.

Fuel Subsidy Scam: Senate Releases Names Of Cabal
DEC 02, 2011

Oando Oil, CONOIL, African Petroleum and MRS Oil are among the powerful players in the petroleum sector that have shared over N3.655 trillion between 2006 and September 2011 in pursuit of importation of refined petroleum products.

OP, I am not an E warrior, I'm just extra passionate about the country..

I'd have Waka pass your mention but the question is just too good,to apt to be left alone & I also have never been known to not take up a cerebral challenge... I only avoid the inane ones..

I'm not penning any essay, spent a good no of years sweating through some "easy" ones, been there done that, but I'm going to give two analogies & you can make your inference ;

A. You have a very leaky gallon but you are using a tanker hose to pump water into it, it is leaking like no man's business but the volume of water coming in is far above what is leaving.... it is clear to see the waste but the false sense of comfort is " something still dey inside nah", I dey kampe!!

Suddenly the tanker from whence the water is gushing from is almost all dried up, to trickles, you then realise the error of not fixing the leaks in the gallon, You are now trying to patch the holes, & at the same damn time doing a balancing act to ensure the little that trickles in don't gush out through the innumerable holes still remaining, so you, your kins & your youngins don't die of thirst!!

I can also give more than 2 more but this will serve for now..

Just going to add, this is what happens when visionless leaders oversee the period of plenty, they make the job of a resourceful & patriotic leader an uphill task!.

FG, States, LGs Share N568.4 Billion for Oct

Also, $1billion was proposed for distribution to complement shortfall in expected revenue." The $1billion is a compromise by the FG over its words in September not to augment shortfalls anymore.

Responding to the presentation, the chairman of the States Commissioners of Finance and Ebonyi State Commissioner of Finance, Mr Timothy Odaah, lamented that the statutory allocation was getting smaller and smaller. "It appears this is the worst in terms of returns. This is the least in allocations as far as this year is concerned. We are mourning the dearth of funds and this is a wakeup call for states and local governments to buoy up their internally generated revenue."

While appreciating the "magnanimity" of President Goodluck Jonathan to approve the $1billion from the excess crude account and to be shared among the federal, state and local governments, Odaah expressed disappointment with the returns made by the NNPC.

He said that [size=14pt]the states had requested for $2bn[/size] to complement for the shortfall in revenue but got only $1billion. In September, Odaah and fellow commissioners had walked out of the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF) when the federal government said that the framework of the 2013 budget was no longer realistic and it won't augment shortfall in revenue. Odaah raised issues with the statutory allocations of previous months.

for the rainy day. So when you support your thievish "heroes" as they plundered and stole, the result is bound to be hardship. What we are experiencing now is not a DISTINCT AND SEPARATE UNRELATED INCIDENT. When a nation has low foreign reserves, it's currency value will suffer against strong currencies like the US dollar. Wailers think this is an "excuse". I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU....UNTIL YOU GET FREAKING REAL, AND STOP THINKING LIKE 5 YEAR OLDS, you will remain the butt of every educated person's joke. Thank your lucky stars that your hero was sacked and steady hands took over. There would have been an implosion in this country by now. The entire facade of "fastest growing-rebased-economy would have come full circle. See what is happening to our main source of revenue. THEY SHOULD HAVE SAVED OUR MONEY, NOT STEAL AND WASTE IT. Mtcheew!!
