Delary:
My friend, who is working with one of the federal government parastatals, married an intelligent lady who is teaching in a private school. before the marriage, they dated for six (6) years. during this time of dating, the lady comes around to do his laundary, cooking & sweeping; this she made a serious point of duty and frawns at the guy any time he makes an attemt to do any of the above chores. now that they are married, even before the lady took in, she had started complaning that the guy is stressing her up with those three chores (Recall: cooking, laundary & sweeping). the problem is that the guy closes work by 4pm while the wife closes by 2pm. d man comes back from work ensures there are water for d house then he goes to take his bath and retires to his bed to take a nap. so, most times, d intelligent wife comes to complain that he left d entire work for her and they usally have misunderstanding on dis.
Please, give ur candid advive to this couple to save their young marriage. THANKS IN ANTICIPATION!!

The Emerging Buhari Doctrine, By Oluwafemi AkinfolarinPremium Times June 18, 2015 The Emerging Buhari Doctrine, By Oluwafemi Akinfolarin2015-06-18T12:13:41+00:00 Guest Columns, Opinion Comment (6)
To summarise the Buhari doctrine. Be low key, speak only when necessary, act behind the scenes and face problems head on after carefully reaching a decision based on examining all available facts.

The past few weeks, post May 29th, have been a whirlwind of activities in Nigeria. A new government has taken over power and political operatives have been jostling and readjusting to the anticipated changes to the existing order by the government of Mr. Buhari. It has been a season of political intrigues with the rejuvenated PDP entering into alliance with rump parts of the APC to seize the senate and deputy senate leadership positions. Through all these early shenanigans and other acts, a tentative picture of the Buhari’s style of governance is slowly and steadily emerging – a style which though in its infancy promises to be a strong departure from that of the previous administration. What is slowly forming is what I will term the Buhari doctrine, a codification of beliefs or principals that will direct how the current administration governs.

The first aspect of the doctrine is simple. Focus on and resolve one issue at a time. The president takes up a singular problem and forces into place the various factors that are needed to successfully resolve the particular issue. A case in point is the ongoing Boko Haram anti-terrorist campaign. Immediately upon coming into office, Mr. Buhari met with the National Security Adviser, followed with another meeting with the chiefs of the various arms of the military. Having then gotten a picture of the situation, he moved the military command to Maiduguri, formed a cohesive coalition of willing states (who were merely grudgingly engaged under the past administration), released funds for operations in the three ravaged states and used the platform of the African Union (AU) to push a pan-African plan to defeat Boko Haram, whilst receiving financial support ($5m) from the US and promises of the supply of military equipment from the G7. The future of Boko Haram has never looked bleaker at any time in the last eight years than in the coming months.

A leg of the doctrine of Mr. Buhari is getting a full grasp of a situation before making a decision. He is careful and deliberate in decision making and not swayed by public opinion. A clear example is the ongoing clamour for him to announce his list of ministers which he has ignored in the past two weeks. The issue is straight forward. At the tail end of the Jonathan administration, a transition committee was formed. The committee was supposed to smoothen the handover between the outgoing and incoming administrations, and the fulcrum of this exercise was the handover notes from each ministry and the presidency. That wasn’t handed over by the Jonathan administration until the May 29. Despite the pressing nature of things, Mr. Buhari gave his transition team a further two weeks to review the handover notes and make recommendations at which point he would then decide what to do. The point is, when he is ready after his own due process, the ministerial list will be announced. Same with corruption, rather than arbitrarily arresting everyone and anyone, Mr. Buhari is slowly building a case for his assault on corruption in Nigeria. The president has asked for a meeting with the foremost authority in the Nigerian oil and gas space, the Oslo-based Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), the head of whom will be in Nigeria this week. The EITI has in the past stated that oil companies are owing the federal government about $7.5b (N1.48 trillion) in unpaid royalties between 1999 and 2015. The body has also stated that out of the $1.85billion value of eight oil blocks sold between 2010-2011, the federal government had only been paid $100m. Astronomical losses. Here again, we see the president slowly and deliberately building a case for the actions he will take in that sector. Once he has all the necessary information, the culprits will be slammed with the maximum punishments. No rush to wrong judgment here.

Another part of the doctrine of Mr. Buhari is the maintenance of a significantly low key presence, while reducing the cost of the presidential office. Since taking power in May, he has embarked on three foreign trips, and on each trip he was accompanied by two governors, a personal confidant (Mr. Dambazzau) and a tiny retinue. Contrast this with the last administration whose trip to African neighbour, Kenya, practically shut down their airspace with the number of accompanying private jets. He has also on a number of occasions visited the national mosque without the normal fanfare. The message here is that the president is not more important than any other person and should not be disrupting the lives of fellow citizens whenever he ventures out of Aso Rock.

The final aspect of the doctrine is, stealthy work behind the scenes. Recently, the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission started work on a review of the remuneration of members of the national assembly and other political office holders. Would this sort of review ever happen without the tacit approval of the president, I doubt it. The public is suddenly inundated with precise data on how much national assembly members earn and what makes up the cost; information that wasn’t available in the last dispensation. Another point is the rumour going round that the president is about to appoint Colonel Hamid Ibrahim Ali as the new boss of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). The mere rumour of the appointment has already resulted in a number of people paying substantial funds back into government coffers in the past few days. A couple of days ago, the lucrative contracts awarded to the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) and the Niger Delta militants by the immediate past administration were cancelled. The military has been ordered to guard national pipelines. No noise. Just quick decisive action.

To summarise the Buhari doctrine. Be low key, speak only when necessary, act behind the scenes and face problems head on after carefully reaching a decision based on examining all available facts. Does that remind you of a certain other president of the only remaining global superpower?

Mr. Buhari will move at his own pace and ensure he makes the right decisions, then execute ruthlessly and without hesitation. He will not be present on the screens of our televisions, hectoring us day in, day out but we will feel his presence as the fear of his silence quickly forces corrupt people to be less corrupt.

Thank you.

kaboninc:
Maybe you should revisit that sensational news report.

The FEC approved the purchase of those jets because they were discussions about it. These jets were first conceived in 2009 - 2010. Then for the 2015 budget, there was another request for a jet. However, one thing you must know is that requests for jets and subsequent deliveries takes years because these are not off the shelve products.

Then again, one of those jets was grounded due to safety reason and another had to be replaced. So GEJ wasn't trying to 'increase' his fleet as you all will insinuate.

Did he attempt to reduce it?

kaboninc:
Jonathan did not buy even one of those jets. It takes years for orders and delivery to be made. Those newer jets were already captioned in the budget since 2010 by the Yaradua government.

Most of those gets are not even in use.

Go get your facts first... But, assuming he didn't buy them, why didn't he use his sense?

Uniquexty:
Exactly what i had in mind. So after every action, the friend (in quote) returns with tales. You see why the girl laughed. Immaturity

The OP I feel is this "friend" in question. He feels that by buying her stuff like La Casera, taking her to some eateries, even, a new Injoo Hot Fire qualifies him for the grand prize.

But, no!

Our girl has other things in mind which might include, but not limited to a higher bidder.

bataderemi:
Why is everything happening to everybody's friends these days? And theses friends always seem to know stuffs they're not meant to

We are in the age of confidential proxy.

adonbilivit:
OK this happened to my friend. so he proposed to his girlfriend after dating for over a year. she neither said yes nor no but just laughed out loud. this has been bothering my friend. He feels she might be thinking he is not man enough probably because he is only 24.

N.B: he is a graduate and financially stable. the sex is good too.

How do you know the sex is good or, are you hiding something from us?

Adesuyi07:
am very disappointed that some of d pple that commented above didn't read nor understand d response of d woman. if it was properly assigned to him and she has prove of allocation due to d monetisation policy , I think Wike or what he calls himself is v wrong on this. A simple letter like d woman said should've been written.

They just talk because it's cheap to talk.

ice25:
lady, save the self the self injury which u are about inflicting on your self. that your marriage is rocky right now doesnt mean everyother person's own has to be same. that's a married man for Pete sake.

how about communication, whatever happened to it? communicate with your husband and try to understand why. if he refuses to open up, then try doing things in a positive difference ways. something must definitely work

a war may start where you wish but might not end where you will.


starting extramarital affair is so easy but for how long and to what gain......

just doom!!!

& she's just 21, with a three month-old baby... Already thought of walking out... Mere anarchy is indeed loosed upon the world!

Good day.

cramjones:
What a shame! No wonder Africans will continue to remain backward. How can you come in and sack people just like that? Just imagine we have a new Maryland governor and then he sacks everyone in University of Maryland because he did not like the former governor.

I fear, we may remain so backward compared to the rest of the world even in the next 50 years. We have a bunch of clueless, dumb, wicked, insensitive, idiotic, corrupt and foolish stinky leaders.

What a shame!

-CramJones

You got him/ them alright but adding *leaders", I disagree.

Dollyak:
I meant compared to the alleged 8 billion.

The 8.64 billion was never for just one but for all 469 members... Do the maths... & do you remember what minimum wage is? Are you aware the have about 6 other allowances which makes a Senator take home about 30 million monthly?

Dollyak:
Nice. 500k is really fair.

Really?
