Is it old age or something that is disturbing Pa Ahmed Joda? How can Nigeria's 2015 budgetary deficit be N7trn? How much is even our overall annual budget? Our 2015 budget is N4.5trn, revenue is expected at N3.2trn and deficit N1.3trn. So what is Joda saying? Is he talking of Budgetary deficit for real? Does Joda even know what Deficit is? This APC people are clowns!

Someone should tell Ahmed Joda that there is difference between Budget deficit and FG Debt.

The Total Debt of Nigeria as at May 11 is N12trn. This debt consists of all the debts of the FG and the 36 states and FCT. Joda should

........ I actually appreciate ur criticism buh I bliv u r nt privy to d information at Joda's disposal. it makes any fault u find against him baseless. U cant deny joda is a seasoned adminstrator nd an experienced civil servant. Dont act lyk u knw better than him all because of politics.

I wonder d reason anyone wld fault d government on dz. Nigeria loses 400 barrels of crude oil everyday as a result of oil theft. D economic consequence of blockn dz leakage cant be over-emphasised.

Maxymilliano:
Tinubu did not inposed Lawan and that was why Remi 'Surutu' Tinubu snubbed Saraki during inauguration ...


Boroficce talk something else jare .

......buh in dz case u dont knw better than he does. its better u dont criticise what u dont understand.

Shey make hin no sleep ni, PMB no be robot na

roqchiq:
I don't understand all the noise APC is making over Senate Presidency. I thought the Legislative is supposed to check the activities of the Executive. This should be the change preached by the party. The way I see it, we now have a Legislative not tied to any one party.
Lai Mohammed is talking about the development not going to support the party's agenda, How?? Is it the APC's agenda or Nigerian Agenda that is at stake
Is it a National Assembly or a Party Assembly
Frankly, both PDP and APC should park well, nobody should own the Assembly, it is a National Assembly.

Now we have a National Assembly, they should focus on Nigerian Agenda and not on PDP or APC agenda.....fullstop!!!
The C in C, has pledged to work with the leaders, that is enough.

......You are nt totally wrong buh the party needs a house that will push the agenda/manifesto of their party. Buh we av a situation whereby d leadership of d house wz installed by the opposition. PMB needs a legislative backing dah will be in sync with hz agenda.

ebamma:
Committed to transparency and accountability?,
This pathetic thief,
Kwara state is a good example of how transparent and accountable you are,
This APC will even be worse than PDP,
At least PDP
didn't claim to be Saints,
This APC are not only corrupt but are also, claiming to be saints

.... u dont get it, PDP installed him, nt APC. hz corruptn baggage is one of d reasons APC dont want him.

So u dont wanto lose top military officers buh wen we lose 30 pple to bomb blast u can blame buhari.....

baralatie:
wish list?

you actually mean he went to broker a possible Eu loan or Foreign loan facility!

...yyh d german leader wz quoted as sayn dat 'wish list'. check for d thread sef, read it here sm days ago. Dont be in a haste to criticise. Probably u av a different opinion as to wat he went dere to do.

Dont tell me u dont knw he wz invited. He got d invitation even b4 he wz inaugurated. He wz tld to come with hz wish list. Dont criticise wah u dont understand!

Its nt lyk he bowed to pressure, even d article doesnt say so. D law requires dey verify d documents, its a laid down process. Pple were nt jez being patient.

Declaration of assets hz a laid down process. Critics were nt just patient. Yaradua declared hz assets a month after inauguaration. GMB is simply going thru d same process. There is actually no reason for d criticism he got on dz issue.

otipoju:
I dont know why you guys are in a hurry. When someone gives you a dirty car, you first clean it, start it, let it warm for a while before putting it into gear and driving it to your intended destination.

Is it wrong to scan the entire villa to remove all spy gadgets that have been placed there by either local or foreign interests.

Is that not the wise thing to do? Especially when you know you have enemies both internal and external.

As to appointment of Ministers and advisers and new service chiefs?

Is there not a due process that has to be followed? The last I checked , those he intends to appoint have to be screened by the senate who have not yet convened their inaugural sitting. So do you expect Buhari to put the cart before the horse?

He has his list and in order not to heat up the polity or be unduly influenced, he has kept it close to his chest and will present it when the NEW senate sits.

Has Buhari been busy in the past one week?

The answer is a resounding Yes. Those trips to Chad and Niger were not jamborees but strategic moves to discuss concrete plans with allies in order to rid Boko Haram once and for all.

He also met with the current service chiefs who briefed on the existing game plan. He has given them instructions to move the command center to the epicenter of the action itself....signalling to Boko Haram that Nigeria has crossed the Rubicon and there is no retreat no surrender till victory is secured.

Osibanjo has executed tasks delegated to him as the vice and he is doing pretty well , a far departure from the ghost worker we had before in Architect Sambo.

Everything will move into full swing with the appointment of Ministers who will be given their specific job functions and targets and performance apraised. But these can only be after the New senate sits.

......perfect response! I really dunno d reason pple cant be patient. Dey want him to make major pronouncents, dey dont knw it requires adequate planning.

Is it wrong for him to attend jumaat service being a muslim?. GEJ wz never criticised for attending sunday services na. Wetin dey worry pple sef!!!

Pple will jez sit down nd criticise what dey dont understand, formulate various conspiracy theories nd draw conclusions based on their assumptions.

Did u by any chance check d colour of her panties?.....@op

Buhari is no merlin, he wz sworn-in jez 4 days ago. Wat exactly were u expecting u av happened in d space of 4 days? Make heaven fall?

Pple tho! Even d lawmakers he's going to work wit are yet to be inaugrated nd u're crying foul. Imagine bloody civilians finding fault in hz approach to end insurgency, sm1 dah singlehandedly led troops to end maintasine nd also d chadians. Pple nw proving dey knw better than d general, most of dem dont even av any military background

DONMAYOR19:
But I thought that the former general already had a plane to nail boko haram base on all the lies he called promise before the election?

I'm even typing with last bar of my battery all because no light, and we have president in this country.

We are already in one chance with this brainless illiterate one.

...... so u expect him to solve d problm of power 3 days after inauguration? Remember, GEJ cldnt even solve d problm in 6 yrs nd u expect buhari to jez come nd wave a magic hand?

Av nt come to terms with d fact dat sm nigerians are waiting for buhari to fail. Wats actually their gain if he fails?

egobetatoday:
Gejs time was even too much. i wish we could reduce governance to 2 yrs so that we dont have to waste 4 good yrs under bad government.
well , if i were GMB i will take these as criticisms needed to make me achieve results. what Nigetians are asking for are just basic necessities now. is it too much to ask for equiped hospitals? Gmb shld know tha5 nigerians are getting wiser so the one Gej see na small one compared to what he is going to see. to make matters worse he wont be able to do any thing unlike in 1984 with all his decrees. Now he is in for it. But he shld also know that the person after him will see worse. it cant get better until nigerians get what we want. hopefully, it should get to a point where people are not willing to contest for public offices because they know they are only going there to serve and not to be served. only service oriented people will be willing to at that point.

...... u're obviously right with ur submission, u've nt askd too much. GMB sure knws wat is required of him, he's nt a novice in dz game. All am sayn is we shldnt raise our expectations too high, dont expect him to solve all nigeria's problems in 4yrs. He's no magician, d reason he said he wont perform miracles. Nt expectn miracles doesnt mean we shldnt expect performance.

light004:
He made promises that are tantamount to miracles and people questioned the rational behind some of those promises but the party came out to defend them. It's a big shame if those promises are not fulfilled as stated during the campaign. That'll amount to falsehood and deception but let be watchful

.....y nt mention these promises dat are tantamout to miracles. Give me d exact quotes of d miracles he said he wud perform. Buhari is so experienced dat he wont make careless promises. He's sm1 dah knws wat it takes to be d president judging by hz track record. I watchd him closely during d campaign, he chose hz words carefully. He neva promised heaven on earth. Tanoids jez want him to make mistakes by raising expectations nd use it against him, forgettn dat wr r all Nigerians. If buhari succeds, its for d benefit of all. Dz pple ar already out criticising every step d guy takes, d guy hznt even gotten to power!! U dont criticise jez for d sake of it. We all shld jez pray buhari succeds, anyfyn dah apns will affect us all.

Buhari never said he wud perform miracles. Ion even understand d reason pple will expect miracles frm him. Tanoids are jez twisting GMB's words to suit their purpose. Buhari hz been sincere wiv every word he hz said. Promising change means doing things differently nd nt miracles. Jona wz given enuf tym b4 he wz being castigated, nd I bliv GMB deserves time too. Pple shld jez wait till d guy is sworn in.

OREMUSSANCTUS:
Great man
Tinubu can never be like him
He's to corrupt to be like baba Awo

..... I think tinubu hz surpassed him in terms of political achievement nd tlkn abt corruption, baba wznt also clean.

Dotun..... OAU..... GEOGRAPHY.......#TEAMOYO

Any media house shld abide by d ethics of their profession, its simple. There are other media houses dat criticised buhari buh theirs werent as gross as dat of AIT nd dey were nt barred. Its nt lyk he doesnt wanto be criticised buh be professional abt it. AIT were simply unprofessional nd buhari as we all know is a strict disciplinarian, he acts according to d rules. Pple shld watch doz AIT's damaging documentaries again nd determine if dey truly deserve to be barred or nt.

I actually dont c anytyn wrong in all he said,he spoke well.

U wud probably prefer he wz made d chairman of EFCC so u pple will av enuf reasons to criticise APC...... bad belle!!!

Even if tinubu demands for oil well, d press cant be privy to such information. Its jez a figment of their imagination cz most pple percieve tinubu to be corrupt.

I actually dont understand d essence of dz thread. Who tld u he's nt prepared for d task ahead? As d leader of d party he shld spearhead d campaign of hz party nd dats what he's been doing. Is anyfyn wrong wit that? U dont criticise wat u dont understand. He's nt been sworn in, yet u want him to act as d president. Y nt wait till he's d president nd see if he's prepared for d job.

Sai baba.....APC

tonytony208:
tinubu's corrupt personality is enough to show me what apc will do. Fashola's exposed corruption is another indication. Abdufatah Ahmed and his Godfather Bukola Saraki are busy bleeding kwara dry. Okorocha is busy deceiving imo people; about 60% of projects he commissioned within 4 years have collapsed. Believe me, i already have an idea of how apc government will look like

..... I understand ur point buh I bliv politics gives room for d gud, d bad nd d ugly. D opposition wldnt be dz formidable without dz pple u mentioned. Buhari only needed a strong platform to contest nd he hz it nw. Am aware dere r corrupt pple in APC buh everyfyn boils down to d leader(buhari). Jonathan hz more corrupt aides nd pple still bliv in their transformation, nd we all knw he treats corruptn wit kid gloves. So y nt give Buhari a chnace nd lets c wat he'll do differently. Lets c ow he'll deal wiv corrupt pple in hz cabinet, we av seen ow jonathan does hz. Power shld change hands bro!

GMB na fine man tho
