Really?

Don't be hurling insult at people.
The point is,buhari didn't promise heaven on earth in 100 days according to the video .

Thanks

But Buhari's party and supporters made him look like a god who would just come and wave a magic wand over the country and everything will be fixed in an instant.

Blame his party and supporters for these expressions of disappointment by the citizens because they over hyped the president's abilities and are even still doing so.

I see...

It's a time people believe that the activities of 'village witches' are at the peak.

Cool.
I admire Anambra state - the economic powerhouse of the East.
Hardworking people, business oriented and they are not lagging behind in education also.

And most importantly, their government works.

APC did not disown those so called publications before now because they suited their agenda. Now all we get from them is persistent use of the PDP as an excuse to cover their gross incompetence. We are not fooled.

They keep saying “The PDP left a mess; an ex-minister stole $6bn, etc.

When will APC stop distracting the masses and sit down to govern?

APC - All Promises Changing.

Road Safety Corps may not catch you when you beat the traffic and disobey traffic rules but will you still be in one piece after pulling that stunt?

It is better to be late than be late(dead)

GEJ made mistakes but he isn't the devil they (APC) are trying hard to paint him as.

I think the APC is trying to play with the minds of Nigerians using propaganda as usual.

It seems they are beginning to doubt
their ability to fulfil their promises, that
is why they are trying hard to portray
GEJ's administration in a very bad
light so that their own achievements will look big in the eyes of the people even when it is nothing to write home about in the real sense.

upgrade:
For their mind them holy pass pasuma

This is not about claiming to be more holy than everyone else. It's about sticking to principles.
There has to be a distinction between the church and the secular world.

It's funny how people of the secular world wants the church to accept their ways but they don't want to accept the ways of Christ and his church.
They are quick to frown when the church refuses to do things their own way.

But the church has to stand its ground and stick to its principles as much as possible otherwise it is no longer the church.

So nobody should pick offense at a move like this.

Really?

“Some of the ex-ministers lamented that the Permanent Secretaries proving to Buhari as holier-than-thou were part of the Jonathan administration and they even made input into the handover notes.”

For all these probes to be fair and also to achieve the aim of sanitizing the system, Buhari must not allow himself to be deceived by this holier-than thou display being put up by most of these people flocking to his side.

Christ! I must confess, this is a very long epistle. I usually try to read every topic but I could not finish this one.

OBJ and Soyinka talking too much these days. Old age is fast taking its toll on the two of them.

“Going by election results, constituencies that gave me 95 per cent cannot in all honesty be treated, on some issues, with constituencies that gave me five per cent. I think these are political realities. While, certainly there will be justice for everybody but the people who voted, and made their votes count, they must feel the government has appreciated the effort they put in putting the government in place.” - Buhari on July 22, 2015.

Buhari may be implementing this statement. Even though he denied any intention to marginalize any region, his recent appointments have shown otherwise.
Some people will still try to say that he did not mean it the way we are seeing it but I think he knew what he was doing from the very beginning. Out of the intentions of the heart, the mouth speaks These appointments were not made by mistake.

If Buhari is wise, he will put all this criticisms into consideration before making further appointments.

Everybody crying of marginalisation.

Coming to preach the 'gospel of peace' I guess.

PDP is suffering because of defection by its members.

All these our political parties have no ideology.
The question is, what does PDP stand for? What does APC stand for and what makes them unique?

We can't answer these questions because there is no clear ideology from both sides.

The politicians that make up the parties are only after money and their own stomachs, they go where the money is.
Since PDP is no longer in control, they are all moving away.

If they have the nation's interest at heart, I expect them to remain in their party and constitute a strong and viable opposition to the ruling party by offering criticisms to ensure that the right things are done.

Buhari is trying to say that competent and incorruptible people can only be found in the north.

If the north is so 'blessed' with all these men of integrity who are incorruptible, I wonder why that region is still lagging behind in many areas of development when compared to other regions despite all the federal allocations meant to develop the region?

Oh, I guess aliens have been stealing and misappropriating the funds.

Lamentations everywhere...

The wailing has reached APC too.
Wailing wailers are beginning to emerge from APC.

I wonder why they are suddenly beginning to wail.
Were they not the ones who gave him the presidential ticket and support?
Abeg, they should continue chanting 'Sai Baba' as they have always done.

PUNCH Metro learnt from a police
source on Wednesday that the
suspect died from the burns injuries
he sustained while setting fire to
the tenant, Abeeb Daraloye.

In other words, he killed himself.

dayo 23:
if Oshiomole addvertise vacancy for the post of an houseboy, I bet u go be the first person to apply! Fineboy with empty pocket

ehm... (coughs lightly) Bro Dayo, it is a houseboy not an houseboy. You must have dropped the letter 'H' again.

(Don't be offended please! Just kidding around)

Somebody should tell these two old men to stop acting like kids.

kanaleke:
fathers are greatly devalued.

Like I said, it's not in all cases.
Actually, it wont be totally correct to say that children love mothers more than fathers. It would be wrong generalisation to argue in that line. Men and women bring different attributes to parenting.

Showing love is more than providing money.

There is a kind of warmth and emotional support that mothers give which fathers usually can't provide. The mother seems to understand the children's deeper needs.

In most cases, while the father is away looking for bread for the family, the only person around to listen to the children's complains, and help them through the challenges they face daily is the mother.
That little pat on the back, the little encouraging words and little expressions of love always add up to the children liking their mum's more than the father.
(The above is not true in all cases though. Some people grew up with only their father and he had to learn to care for them the way a mother would. Hats off to such fathers!
And some people also, for some reason, love their dads more even with their mums present)

As for me, I don't joke with issues that concern my mum. I love her because she has been very supportive in every way. If i am to be born a second time, I will still choose her to be my mum.

The man is going to defect to APC.

With all these defections, what is actually the difference between APC and PDP?

And why does APC rejoice when people defect from PDP to APC?
I thought they said that everything in PDP is bad and that they (APC) represent a fresh start?
But here they are - welcoming PDP defectors with open arms.

Mtchew...these APC people have no clear-cut ideology.

They are not serious.

I hope Buhari's anti-corruption fight will find its way to reach the school headmaster who extort pupils, the lecturer who demands bribe to pass students, the parents who pay for their kids to be given pass grade in exams even when their kids don't merit it.

I hope the fight will reach the top officials in the civil service who only give appointment letters to their kith and kin.
I hope the fight will reach the average Nigerian worker who is not committed to his duties and thus always comes to work late.
I hope it will reach the common man on the street who believes that he can always get away with disobeying simple rules such as traffic rules and keeping the environment clean.

I hope the fight reaches every Nigerian and make everyone change for good, otherwise, many years from now, we will still be crying about corruption, because those at the top who are being charged with corruption now all came from these various groups of individuals in the society.

socialmediaman:
I believe the economy will pick up aggressively from October...

Why is this administration always talking in the future tense?
I guess Buhari's 'body language' is warming up for a big impact on the economy by October (even though there is nothing to guarantee that)

Anyway, we are watching and waiting...but we won't wait till forever.

Good write-up.
