 Politics › When I Remember This, I Think What A Horrible President Buhari Has Been by coolscott(op): 11:26pm On Nov 10, 2016*. Modified: 2:57am On Nov 11, 2016 |
[size=13pt]Anybody who has the efunctry to, after people minding their businesses where raped and butchered and killed for no identifiable reason, present the suggestion of confiscating lands from the victims and assigning to the assailants, has a special kind of efunctry indeed. Sometimes I forget but when I remember, I think about how unfortunate it is that intellelectually glorified individuals within our polity actually invested their minds, resources and their voices to foist this stupidity upon us. When I remember that our president said the killers must be Ugandans and that the solution to the invading Ugandan problem is the forcefull allocation of land to the Fulanis...[/size] 3 Likes |

[size=13pt]And PH is not so terribly big like Lagos, so APC sympathisers declaring this false from outside the state are doing their party more harm than good by further associating their party with the reputation of falsehood. Not even APC supporters within the state have the courage to defend this largely self-inflicted blow on themselves. By the way, where is the EFCC and the DSS on this. These criminals have mentioned some known names as sponsors of what they were caught doing. [/size] 4 Likes |

[size=13pt]Actually, I know the place very well in Port Harcourt. I lived in D-line for years. When I saw the picture, I recognised the street and even the building. They do photography there too. Now the question is, who's mind is this a reflection of? The president? Oyegun? Tinubu? We all know there is only one person whose vain pride still clings on to the hope of making us all believe that he actually had a hold on Rivers State. [/size] 2 Likes |

drshrewd:This is really funny. With all the heavy evidence that has been submitted against Amaechi. We even remember once Magu said no petition against APC stalwarts had been received by his agency (the EFCC). The next day, a petition against Amaechi stamped as received by the EFCC appeared and got circulated on the internet. Magu who was gleefully talking to the press the day before about receiving no petitions suddenly kept mute, and he has largely kept mute up till today concerning such issues. I think it is actually a shame. Anybody can say whatever they feel but the truth is that the public is seeing these things and it is painting the individuals involved in bad light. ............ Modified ............ I remember now that it was Reuben Abatti that posted the EFCC-stamped document the next day on twitter and it went viral. I now see part of the motivation for detaining him. He has just been released but his name has still not been mentioned in any corruption case. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

guiddoti:Actually, when has Mary Odili been considered an honorable woman even by Rivers people? Her reputation in Rivers State is that of shielding (protecting) her husband when the EFCC was after him after his accepted-as-fraudulent tenure in Rivers state. And don't you know that Amaechi Wike and most guys in Rivers politics today are all products of the Odili faction of the PDP? The Odili faction which reigned in mafiaso, thuggery, and pilfering while they eventually killed leaders of the other faction (the Marshall Harry faction) who were at leastinterested in the constructive political progress and development of our state, as they had already demonstrated with their actions? |

There is absolutely no weight (nothing more than an empty hollow) in what they are doing. The weight is in your getting jealous. That is the actual weight being sought by the west in this whole thing - All the funny thoughts they could evoke in your head, the way a girl may choose to evoke funny feelings in the heart of her male school friend by accepting a ride from an aristo-looking stranger that comes to visit the school. Only this time, the person who is targeting you for those feelings is the aristo whose only interest in going out with the girl is to evoke those feelings within you. America is the Aristo. Why didn't they invite governors from oil-producing states or from Boko-haram affected areas? They know Nigeria and know how you think.

freeze001:[size=13pt]I have always said what he said was a joke, but finding out he said it to the international press and standing beside Merkel in Germany, I consider it a very badly timmed joke. But it reminds me of me sometimes. I may write well on nairaland but in real life, I don't always say what is appropriate. I remember calling my friend about something work-related a few days after his wedding (when I should have remembered they were having at least the week off before he would start to work again).

[size=13pt]When this administration started they said they said that things would change because when the head is rotten, the rest of the body would follow suit. This was said in response to it being indicated that one man may not be able to change the system. They said now the head is clean, the rest of the body would follow suit. Why do they think right now that it is the body that is making the head [/size]rotten?

I came to the conclusion not too long ago, that at this stage, the reason investors stay away from Nigeria may not be so much what is going on in terms of policy change as it is the fact that when they look at the presidency they see he is still the one there.

tuale4u:[size=13pt]Then Buhari must also blame himself for truncating our democracy and sending us into 16 years of military dictatorship (from 1983-1999). We know that the democratic process improves and becomes better with practice, as we expected in 1999 and as we have experienced from that time till now. Truncating democracy in 1983 put us through the era of military regime after military regime, making us new learners in the game in 1999 and participators in a process in which we are still learning and improving. What would our country have been like if we did not experience IBB, and Abacha all these years? What would our country be like if democracy was let to grow. We will never know. But what we know is that his coup in 1983 started the country into the 16-year millitary dictatorship era that we all consider the worse in our country's history, and if he had handled well the affairs of a less complex nation then, the space for IBB to undo and put him aside would not have arisen in the first place. It is reasonable to ask Mr. President to add himself to his list of predecessors if what has happened in the past must be known[/size] 1 Like |

illuminated93:[size=13pt]Actually, in the TV interview that I watched, he did say that he virtually wrote the APC manifesto and talked about how no one has ever sought his opinion on anything since the president took over. He is pained. I just don't know whether it is 1). A self-serving selfish kind of pain... Or 2). An academic (still self-serving) kind of pain... Or 3). A combination of both kinds of pain In the case of 2) above, he might be pained that all his fantasies about implementing all his ideas he has believed would work for the country have been made to remain just that - fantasies. But even for academics, the idea that your very own solutions are being acknowledged and implemented is in itself ego-stroking. That is why I think it is a combination of both pains. I think it is actually true that just about every government in the past has had the presidency run like a medieval court but it is also my opinion that the reason why Pat Utomi was complaining is that he had sold Buhari and the APC to us as being on a pedestal on which they really didn't belong, thus his dissapointment.[/size] Highlight the space beside the arrow =>:[color=#FFFFFF] I really hadn't seen you two posts and reacted to just the first one[/color] |

obailala:[size=13pt]I don't know where you got the idea that the solution to our recession is the printing of forex. I also do not know where you got the idea that that is what he is being faulted for not doing. I have deliberately not said what the apparent solutions are here because it is so apparent it is surprising we are not moving in that direction. With regards to your question being considered foolish, it is just how I speculate it is being considered. This is because the question tends to suggest that a laudable response to identified errors in one place should be the replication of equal and similar errors in other places. In responding to the revelation that the governors fought in court to ensure we spent rather saved, in attempting to provide exoneration, you say "...why didn't GEJ save his own part?" Do you see how that sounds? [/size] That is why I suspect no one touched it - because it indeed sounds foolish. |

obailala:[size=13pt]No. People are saying that the former APC governors pointing fingers at the past administration for not saving have no right to do so since they fought to ensure that we do not save. As per your question (and please don't get offended about this) people consider it rather (again don't get offended) foolish. That being said, the former APC governors pointing fingers at the past administration for not saving have no right to do so since they fought to ensure that we do not save. As far as passing the buck to Buhari for the current state of the economy, of course the buck stops on his table whatever the case. When GEJ was complaining about being too criticized, of course we could not support him on that one because the buck stopped with him as the leader. So for Buhari to not feel responsible for the economy sliding (under his watch) is super childish. Especially as at least basic things that should be done and should have been done seem beyond the realization of the president and/or his team. Now whether one loves Buhari or not, the obviousness of basic things that need to be done, and the obviousness of the absence of almost all of these basic things has been one of the sad, surprising, embarassing, shocking, etc things about this govt. That is why some people don't even bother commenting/complaining anymore. They have come to the resolute conclusion that this government will fail and don't consider it worth their energy or their time.[/size] |

obailala:[size=13pt]Whereas I have not verified that Obj and Yar' Adua were also sued for the same reason... 1). The issue is that the past federal govt was taken to court in a fight to ensure the funds were not saved. 2). What matters is that in their last outing in court the governors won, the result of a hard fought investment in money, time and emotion to ensure that we use up rather than save. The fed govt had to follow/respect the rule of law (by not disobeying the court's decision). 3). Now from where did the people who initiated (and successfully executed) the battle to ensure we use up rather than save, find the moral legs upon which to stand and say it was the fed govt's fault that we did not save? The same fed govt they had to take to court to force to NOT SAVE but rather give the money to them.[/size] |
