ILIDEFI: That's with the assumption that the middle belt will still vote massively for him, after being decimated by herdsmen. Even the SW won't give him as many votes as they gave him in 2015.
The truth is, had Buhari carried the SE and SS along in his appointments and utterances, he would have silenced many voices from the 2 zones.
You may not agree with me, but Jonathan didn't enjoy massive support from the South East prior to 2015 election. It took Ọhaneze close to the election to declare support for Jonathan cos according to them, he didn't do very well for the SE. Even in terms of voters turn out, less than half of those who voted in the SE in 2011 turned out in 2015. That voters' apathy was a result of some subtle distaste with PDP.
Sincerely, a genuine concern from the presidency for the SE and SS would have nailed PDP badly. Not in the mood to analyze an election that's three years away. But after all is said and done, PDP has not yet a candidate to defeat PMB in 2019. |

MizMyColi: Of course,
The expected monikers made the list.
I speak for myself when I say that I am a certified true Tecno Fan.
If anyone cannot fathom the reason I love their devices the same way I cannot fathom the reason that they love their football clubs (which does not offer them any value in the real sense of it), then that is their cup of Chinese tea.
Let those who are paid to hate - hate Let those who are paid to market - market Let those who enjoy being true fans - fan.
You see, I have promoted Tecno on and off Nairaland.A close colleague bought the Camon C9 after I laid out the pros and very minimal (almost non existent cons) before her.
I received the device from slot and checked it on her behalf.
Why would I put my reputation on the line for a product I'm not sure of?
To all Tecno fans out there, please stay true to your passion. If one day, Tecno decides to recognize us by making us online brand ambassadors, good and fine, better sef!
You all know yourselves. Whether you are a marketer or fan, please try to desist from puffery, most marketers in general are guilty of this, but such only kills the brand instead of endearing it to the public.
It was at the release of boom j8 that I became the fan that I am today, as such, I cannot really hold brief for previous devices.
I remain passionate about Tecno phones even if I'm using an iPhone at the moment (courtesy my husband) cos my Tecno and BB was stolen on the same day.
That said, I will get one when I am boxed up enough. And I will hype and praise it on NL as I deem fit. If it hurts you so much, it's your cup of mandarin tea and there is nothing I can do to relieve you. Chai, you too get mouth. O lenu gan! How the go dey go? |

Result of bigotry - religion and ethnicity.
If the leader doing the wrong things is a Christian from South, CAN and majority of Southerners will rally support.
If he's a Muslim and from North, expect majority of his fellow Muslims and northerners to do same.

It's fulfilling seeing children of hate and anger wailing from one thread to another about the commissioning of the rail project. Wail as you like, PMB's name is perfectly affixed on the commissioning plaque and NOTHING can change it.
Many of similar projects abandoned by the IB will be completed and commissioned in the next one or two years, surely you have manay years of wailing ahead. |

[s] Samguine: Before the 2015 elections, President Muhammadu Buhari was touted as the messiah that will fix all Nigeria’s problems. He was repackaged and presented to Nigerians as the best invention since sliced bread.
Fast-forward to 2016 – Nigerians who voted for Buhari are now reawakening from the spell cast over them during the elections. There is widespread poverty in the land and the middle class may soon become extinct. As at June 2016, the President’s approval rating stood at 39 percent as against a very high rating of 80 per cent in October 2015. People want to see the President work for them. Here are 5 things President Buhari can do to endear himself to Nigerians one more time:
1. Cabinet reshuffle
The President’s cabinet is filled with professional politicians and not technocrats as expected; a little shake-up will really boost the President’s image. A lot of Nigerians will be happy to see him sack Minister of science and technology, minister of Agric, Minister of finance, Minister of interior, minister of education and his spokespersons. The President also needs to move a few others to ministries best suited for their skillset.
2. Visit the South-South and South East
Before the election, the President stunned Nigerians by dressing up in clothes depicting different Nigerian cultures. He did his best to show Nigerians that he wanted to be President of Nigeria and not President of his region. Today, the story is different. ‘’King of the North’’ – that is now one of President Buhari’s nickname. Some will argue that he is more sectional than any other President Nigeria ever had. What better way to shut up critics than to pay a visit to the South-South and South-East?
3. Commence distribution of N5,000 cash
Poor Nigerians expected Buhari to make their lives better but today they’re suffering the most. Parents now exchange their kids for bags of rice and cartons of noodles – the country is experiencing a technical recession. A lot of jobs have been lost and no new ones created. Nigerians all over are waiting to see President Buhari’s magic move that will end their sufferings. What move can be more magical than distributing free money that was promised during the elections? . Distribution of N5,000 to poor and vulnerable Nigerians may not solve every problem but it will sure help President Buhari regain the support of millions of Nigerians.
4. Focus on doing good rather than looking good
The Buhari administration has become one that is bent on looking good rather than doing good. We see more photos of the President doing mundane everyday things than we hear him speak. Nigerians want to see the President flag off new projects, they want to hear him roll out new policies and not pose for photos with newspapers.
5. Stop talking about the past
‘’Shut up and face front’’- is what President Buhari badly needs to hear from his advisers. Over one year into his term as President, Buhari is still talking about the previous administration. He has even managed to talk about the military coup that removed him from office in 1985. So far, Buhari has shown more interest in Nigeria’s past than her future. Young Nigerians do not want to hear the President talk about ‘what was’, they want to hear him talk about ‘what will be’.
--------------
No Presidency is perfect but President Buhari can do better. If Nigeria must make progress under Buhari, then the President must up his game.

I love it.
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
This destruction of oil facilities is already turning out to be blessing in disguise for the FG and Nigeria as a whole. The proof is the 70% non oil revenue in the N559B shared by the states for June. We can expect the trend will continue as more sources of revenues come into the frame soon.
The way the civil war of 1967-1970 taught the Igbos many hard lessons such that they eventually turn out to become manufacturing/industrial hub of Nigeria economy, is the same way this sustained militancy will help the govt hasten her diversification efforts.
The only unfortunate thing for these avengers and their communities is, they will be the ultimate losers at the end while Nigeria becomes the ultimate gainer. |

Looks decent enough.
May many of this come to Nigeria.
Kudos to all that had one thing or the other to do with this project.
From OBJ who birthed the idea to Yar'Adua who renegotiated and funded part of the project. From GEJ who also paid part of the counterpart funding (he could have actually completed the project in 2014 if he paid all) to PMB who crossed all the T's and put dots on all the I's. |
