I don't know why buhari is complaning.

First he said,"nigerians should not expect miracles"

next he said " there is no limit to what a 72 years old man can do"

he also said "the national treasure is empty"

and now he is saying "he does not know why people want the minister job"

but when he was campaigning, his mouth was very sweet ooo
Correction: he actually said: "there is a no limit to what a 72 years old man can do"

Meanwhile a busy-body Lagos lawyer has filed a suit against Buhari for delaying in appointment of Ministers.

This is comical. Wetin pesin no go see for dis naija sef grin grin grin

.:
Controversial Lagos Lawyer and Activist, Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, Esq., of ‘Kogun Chambers, has filed a fresh suit against the government of President Muhammadu Buhari over what he tagged extreme delay in the formation of his cabinet and for running the affairs of Nigeria as lone ranger as well as in a dictatorial manner.

In a suit he filed today at the Federal High Court, Lagos, a copy of which was made available to DAILY POST, the lawyer said the continued stay of action of President Buhari on the appointment of his Ministers was contrary to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The President seems seriously pained that Nigerians are piling pressure on him to get moving.

Can't really blame the people, because the impression given was that immediately he assumes office, action will follow without any delay.

I do sympathise with the President, though. The man seems to be walking on egg shells, and he does not want to break any.
My believe is that President Buhari, should just get moving. He should go ahead and appoint his ministers, if it turns out that any of them is involved in past misdeed, he should not drop him, he should make an example of such fellow.

With the culture of corruption and graft that has characterised governance in Nigeria since Babangida's time, Buhari will have to wait till 2019 and beyond to get perfect Ministers, without blemish. Even, after then he still will not find enough to make up his cabinet. That is the bitter truth.

PoliticsI Dont Know Why People Are Anxious For Ministers – Buhari by cuteboy2(op): 8:24pm On Jun 22, 2015
:
Abuja— President Muhammadu Buhari explained, yesterday, that he was yet to appoint his ministers because his predecessor’s transition committee submitted its report on the previous administration to him late. Buhari, who spoke to newsmen at the Summit of the African Union in Johannesburg, South Africa, said he was being careful in order not to make mistakes in appointing individuals especially to key positions such as in the finance and petroleum ministries.

His words: “I don’t know why people are so anxious about ministers. But eventually we will have (them). But the main reason is that I have an interim committee which I agreed with the former President Jonathan that the ministers of the outgoing government should hand over their notes or their documents to this interim committee so that a position can be prepared for the new government to start from with clear records from ministers.

“I was waiting for this report because I would like to know the position of things in the government especially in terms of finance and petroleum industry. So, I am not in a hurry to get ministers.

“I want to get ministers after at least I have seen the report because I don’t have to appoint a minister today and sack him the next week because this report would give me what actually happened in terms of security, and economy of the country.

“And since I have to have ministers from politicians and technocrats, I wouldn’t (like to) make the mistake of getting somebody, who has been involved on account of accountability.“ Buhari added that he, Jonathan and former Head of State, Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar, had agreed to let the former ministers hand over their notes to the interim committee he had formed

Earlier Presidential Transition Committee had indicated that subsidy will be removed. This was reported in Vanguard newspaper of today, 22 June 2015. The Transition Committee is yet to deny the report.

Difficult to know what to believe again. Too many conflicting policy statements from the new government. It is not healthy.


vanguard: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/06/buhari-to-remove-oil-subsidy/#sthash.xfkFqSxK.dpuf


ABUJA—President Muhammadu Buhari plans to totally remove fuel subsidy and use the proceeds for the provision of free and compulsory primary/secondary education across the country. The administration is also said to be working on unbundling the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, to make it more efficient in the production and delivery of products to Nigerians.

These proposals form part of the strong recommendations made by the transition committee raised by Buhari to work out a blueprint for his administration. Asked if the proposal for total subsidy removal had been discussed with labour, the source said that members of organized labour in the country were consulted by the committee and they made presentations on what should be done over the matter. The source said: “ Labour is part of the decision; they have accepted the proposal of fuel subsidy removal. “A committee is likely to be set up by the federal government to work out the modalities of what is to be done in that respect. “But the truth is that total removal of fuel subsidy has been recommended with adequate provisions for palliatives on free education and social welfare for the unemployed”, a member of the transition committee said.
PoliticsBuhari Has No Plans To Dismiss Oil Subsidy, Femi Adesina Presidential Spokesman by cuteboy2(op):
President Buhari has not made any decision to eliminate the oil subsidy for Nigerians, according to a phone conversation SaharaReporters had with Femi Adesina.

Mr. Adesina, the Special Adviser to the President for Media and Publicity, told Sahara Reporters that “those reports have not come out of the President’s Office, so I cannot confirm them.”

It was previously reported that President Buhari planned on carrying out recommendations from reports out of the Transition Committee, including the removal of oil subsidies to fund education and food for students across the country.

In addition to these recommendations, earlier reports said that President Buhari planned to decentralize and split the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), to ensure the production and delivery of petroleum products is efficient and cheap.

Mr. Adesina also could not respond to rumors that President Buhari planned to run the Oil Ministry himself, to maximize efficiency and prevent corruption in that sector.

I like the idea of the Presido, chilling out on weekends in his farm to take a break from the tedious task of running Nigeria.

These breaks at his homestead are healthy for him, rather than what we used to hear before his inauguration that he is going to London to rest.
We should encourage this.

What I would worry about is if he tries to micro-manage the running of the farm now that he has a huge job to run Nigeria, and deliver on his campaign promises as the first picture seems to suggest. He should appoint capable and trusted hands to run things for him.

Kudos to the Presido. Carry on.

Pirates who hijack and rob ocean going vessels do not hide in the creeks and villages of Akwa Ibom.
They operate in the high seas especially in sea approach to Lagos, Port Harcourt and around Benin Republic. Lots of imported petroleum products are hijacked at high seas this way with active connivance of Nigerian Navy senior officers.

Criminals who steal crude oil and ship them out using large tankers clearly aided and abetted by Nigerian Navy and JTF operate offshore Rivers and Bayelsa states. There is no JTF commander (usually, officers of the rank of Major General or Brigadier General) or Navy Commander of Eastern and Western Naval Command who is not involved in these illegal stealing and sale of Nigerian crude oil from pipelines. This is why the lobbying to be posted to these "juicy commands" is usually very fierce.

These so-called bombings of Akwa Ibom creeks to kill pirates is a ruse and a big fraud to deflect the attention of Mr President from their lucrative business.

Many thanks for your concise narrative.

Most of us Africans are too emotional in a very crude, raw primitive way and not ready to make the NEEDED long term sacrifice, as individuals & societies for our personal & collective success.

There is a reason why China COLLABORATED rather than confront or antagonise its worst enemies- Japan, Britain, USA- while it invested in massively educating its people to develop its own technological capacity to generate wealth!!!
True bro.

And like I added later "if Mandela had allowed emotions to rule his heart, he could have reduced South Africa to ruins as well. Thank God for that wise Madiba. He tempered the anger and impatience of South African blacks yearning for economic empowerment. For this he received many accolades including the Nobel Peace prize".

I agonise a lot about the condition and plight of the black man everywhere. Whether in Africa or in America where they have been there for over 2 centuries. They simply don't seem to get their acts together in areas where they have total control. Either, they are messing up what others have laboured to build, or they fall flat on their faces if they have to start from scratch.

Sad thing is that the secret to building a prosperous and successful society (modern nations) is not hidden in a text book. You don't even need to have a great education to know it. Living examples like China, Singapore, etc are all there for them to simply copy. Yet, they won't. Are we eternally doomed to failure and backwardness?

Largely desolate based on what criteria/data?

Kindly share. Thanks.
I think what @bushdoc9919 meant by "desolate" is that some of the huge track of land held by white farmers were not cultivated, whilst many blacks had no farm holdings at all.

It was a ZANU-PF key promise during the war of liberation from white rule. Mugabe had to implement land reforms, but he went about it in a land grab manner. Taking very productive land under cultivation and giving them to ZANU-PF party officials on cronyism basis.

The black party officials who took them over simply wanted to do land speculation (re-sale to make profit). They never cultivated the land or kept livestock to generate economic activities the way white farmers did.

Many white farmers still wanted to stay, but there were consistent raiding of white farms, killings and rapes as a form of retaliation by so-called ZANU-PF war veterans. Mugabe did nothing to stop it. Eventually, one after the other the white farmers relocated to South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, America, or UK. Some even came to Kwara State in Nigeria as late as during Gov Saraki's time.

And off course, with the way white farmers were being treated, most of whom were of British descent and were loyal to the old racist Rhodesian regime which Britain supported, Britain did their own damage by engineering economic sanctions. Over time, this tipped Zimbabwe over the scale. A very big lesson, that we have to pick the fight we can win in the long run.

If Mandela had allowed emotions to rule his heart, he could have reduced South Africa to ruins as well. Thank God for that wise Madiba. He tempered the anger and impatience of South African blacks yearning for economic empowerment. For this he received many accolades including the Nobel Peace prize

Just to prove that these people are all trillionaires. Let us do some Zim mathematics:

Let us assume every Zim should be worth at least 1US $

If 40 cents (0.4 US$) = 100 trillion Zim $
Therefore, 1US$ = 100 trillion Zim $ /0.4 = 250 trillion Zim $.

The Central Bank of Zimbabwe has announced a plan to completely phase out the Zimbabwean currency. Beginning on Monday, Zimbabwean bills can be exchanged for U.S. dollars at the rate of 175 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars for every $1 US Dollar.

That means a holder of a 100 trillion bank note will only get 40 cents in US Currency.

Zimbabwe abandoned its currency in 2009 for a system based on the U.S. dollar and the South African Rand.

At the time even street hawkers refused to accept the country’s highest note of $100 trillion. At the peak of the nation's inflation, Zimbabweans had to carry plastic bags full of money to buy basic goods like bread and milk. Prices of goods were rising at least twice a day.

Some members of President Robert Mugabe’s party, the ZANU-PF, have called for the return of the Zimbabwean dollar.

However, even the country’s Finance Minister, Patrick Chinamasa, has repeatedly said that the U.S. dollar “is here to stay.”
