KwaraRat:
The bureaucratic processes are there to ensure accountability and transperancy.


It is a check and balance mechanism put in place to ensure that corrupt practices are checked.

If not for the very same Senate, would we have known that Buhari padded the budget?

Abeg shift from here...

KwaraRat:
Less than 2months after he was sworn in, there were calls from several notable northern APC politicians calling for the suspension of the constitution in order for Buhari to do his magic.




And we also heard from that charlatan , Falana who declared that a sitting Governor can be arraigned before a military Tribunal and also subject to criminal prosecution while in office inspite of immunity clause.

What I have to say is that we must resist this tyrant in Aso Rock because if we give him the slightest chance he will steal our land and hand it over to his Fulani kinsmen, grant boko haram paid amnesty, declare NEDC using oil proceeds from the south to rehabilitate his bokos in the guise of reconstructing the ravaged NE.


These are just a few.


But the greatest danger lies ahead , for this tyrant and his legion of shameless supporters can easily force us to accept Buhari as life president in the nearest future.

ashjay001:
So, what should he av done, maintain d former status quo? By allowing politicians to make away with our sovereign wealth?

Why can't u just make ur article objective, instead of ranting with sentiments! This Finance minister u're deriding, has been paying salaries and assisting owing states to pay a backlog of salaries, something d harvard educated madam couldn't accomplish!

Ur hero was dashing out dollarised arms funds to seek re-election, did any of u armchair economist predict d consequence?

A quote is credited to Abraham Lincoln: "give me 4hrs to cut a tree, and I'll spend 3hrs sharpening my ax".

Nobody enjoyed d delay in kickstarting his govt, but I believe he has just 4yrs to prove to us he deserves a 2nd term. Jona was more accepted than he ever was, yet when his incompetence became clear, he was disgraced out!

Take a chill pill abeg!

I saw a topic earlier today on Nairaland,as regards Buhari's quest for what i would term an Absolute power,which was masked as a recommendation of his economic team led by VP osibanjo,to rescue Nigeria from recession.

First and fore-most,lets look at the recession and what caused it,before delving into the main aim of this article.

President Buhari rode on the good will of Nigerians who said they were dissenchanted by the immediate past administration,to win election,and sane minds would av' thought he would continue in such good will,to make the country better,but no,the old haggard tyrant delved into divisive politics of 97% and 5%,as if that wasn't enough,he took almost 3months to appoint ministers who he had earlier tagged "noise makers". It takes just a fool to do that. 3months alone is enough to set the tune for growth or stiffling of an economy,as every financial year is graded into 1st,2nd,3rd and 4th quarters,with each quarter being comprised of 3months,and recession means two consecutive negative quarter growth in a year. It therefore means,between the time taken to appoint ministers,which includes economic team,and them settling down to draft their policies and start its implementations,you av' already set the tune for bad economy,as both local and foreign investors would av' pushed the pannick button. Need i remind any one how many times the stock Market crashed in the last 15months?. In other words,an economic guru can sit at the comfort of his house,and tell where Buhari led Nigeria economy will land.
Yes,late 2014,and early 2015,oil depend nations economy were on red button,because of plummeting crude price at the int'l energy market,and our then finance minister warned about it,and also mulled some recommendations,one of which is to save,Amaechi and Fashola who are now tagged 'super ministers' without nothing to show for it,led the 'share the money' campaign against the her,and the money was shared,and Govs.stole it all. One would av' thought Buhari will move into action immediately,as well as appointing economy gurus,as signs abound that the economy was on red alert,but no,he went into honey moon according to APC,while our economy burns. You don't expect the 5% citizens,to support a government that profiled and stereotyped them,its normal. And hence,the angry ones among 5% said 'our resources,which is Nigeria's chief forex earner and economic main-stay,will be made irrelevant to you,as you av' made us irrelevant to your government'. Then,the clueless and ill-learned Kemi ,and her CBN friend ended the game with their yeye policies that sent both local and foreign investors scampering for safety. All these brougth us to where we are now.
Ministerial appointment;
Buhari left Nigerians mouth agap,when he appointed non compose mentis as ministers. Buhari was blackmailed by Tinubu into appointing naïve and classless Kemi Adeosu,as finance minister,as well as making a confused lawyer Osibanjo,the leader of his economic team. How can a lawyer be the head of economic team?.
Tinubu the proponent of the emergency power,more especially the auctioning of Nigerian assets,as they did after the civil war; It's a known fact that Osibanjo is Tinubu's house boy. Tinubu via Osibanjo is proposing to offset Nigerian assets,which he will under price and hoodwink the government into selling them to hin,as a condition for him to roll out his media machinery and financial war chest once again,as well as prodding his minions in southwest,for Buhari re-election come 2019,haven failed to secured any oil bloc as yet,due to the activities of NDA. This is same thing he did with Lagos,today,greater percentage of both liquid and capital assets of Lagos state,is under him. Buhari,a despot,would clutch on anything to remain in power,and hence,he is expected to give in to this evil demand.
Buhari is a tyrant that shouldn't be allow to control absolute power,whether temporal or permanent. He had often times shown that even as a democratic president,his years of military mentality is still speaking. He had made mess of our judiciary system,and had shown often times that he isn't willing to obey court pronounciations.
Buhari will give in to Tinubu's demand via his proxy Osibanjo,because he would want to retain power come 2019,and he himself loves absolutism of power. If at all he was allowed to excercise such power even for six months,he would seek enlogation. Nigerians and the duo of red and green,must resist Tinubuism,and Buhari's quest for absolute power,a pseudo return to military ditactorship. They even want a clause of suspending contract/assets bidding and acquisition processes,which was provided for,in both BPP and BPE laws,so as to av' unhindered access to acquire our assets,and bambozzle our common wealth. Say NO to thieves in the corridor of power. Kemi should as finance minister,make our economy work,or resign.

DeleteNonsense:
President of the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC,
Ayuba Wabba, says “most countries” are
unhappy that Nigeria is the giant of Africa, and
will therefore be happy to see the country
disintegrate.
He therefore urged Nigerians not to succumb to
external forces working very hard to break up
the country.
Wabba, who made the appeal on Sunday while
fielding questions at a NAN forum, said that the
country’s size, population and natural
endowments are assets that many other nations
are envious of.

He expressed optimism that the current security
challenges and agitations “being fuelled and
funded by forces determined to undermine
Nigeria” would be surmounted.
“Our position is that we will not canvass the
issue of cannibalizing Nigeria into segments for
any reason or any consideration,” he said.
“It is in unity that our strength lies as a country.
We are today the giant of Africa; most countries
are not happy with that. They will do anything
possible to undermine our national interest and
also work towards the disintegration of Nigeria.
“That is a fact, and we see that as we travel
around the world. Even within the committee of
unions, people are envious of Nigeria. We must
not forget how people said Nigeria was going to
break by 2015 and you must not forget that they
are still working on that.
“They are still funding all manner of things and
trying to see that Nigeria does not actually have
peace; it is deliberate. There is no resource
today in the world that we do not have; they see
us as a country that is blessed without
measure.”
Wabba added that some African countries are
concerned that if anything happens to Nigeria,
their own fate becomes uncertain.
“Most of these conflicts are instigated,” he said,
citing the situation in Syria and other parts of
the Middle East.
“Therefore, it is in our own collective interest as
Nigerians, because we do not have any other
country. To continue to show the light and
perspective for others to see.”

sugarboii:
Just negodu. Reasonability doesn't exist, simple

sugarboii:
There you go again, there is no such word as REASONABILITY. For GOD sake stop this ENGRISH

Adeoba10:
Bro.... I think you need to revisit dat previous post, the Buhari mentioned was not our president. The complainant who was an hausa man said His father bears Buhari, n due to grudges between dem, d hausa man decided to use dat as an excuse.

sugarboii:
Nawa for you, You and English blunders are like 5&6. Go school u no go, Just negodu

sugarboii:
oh my goooosh.. Your English teacher should be hanged. WTF, you're even chestbeating on your awkward english. the blunders your spew are pretty breathtaking.

Write in your local dialect next time, English is NO NO NO for you. You're a disgrace man

SUPERPACK:
you need a job young man to emacipate u frm ur hunger induced schizophrenia, you educated illiterate

StOla:
Dude, this was evidently a protest of some sort, where people even burn effigies of rulers in other climes. As you said yourself, he named his goat Jonathan for a picture that does not reveal his own identity and not done in the midst of Ijaw people. Now you know why one suffered for his stupidity, and the other got internet popularity.

The goat man was not stupid enough to go to Otuoke and name his goat Jonathan while residing with Jonathan's kinsmen. Neither did he go to a community not in Ijaw land but populated by Ijaws, to exhibit this pet naming.

Our bigoted Igbo man, painted his dog Buhari and was always parading it in a community reported to be well populated by Buhari's tribesmen.

I am certain that a lot of Igbos have many unsavoury things named as Buhari in the SE, but it affects no one out of that region. This was a calculated attempt to look for trouble, and trouble came to play with the Igbo man.

SUPERPACK:
my people perish because of lack of knowledge and understanding, and i do understand the fact that you talk b4 you think, did i insult you in my post or argue with you, dumb catarrh filled skull.

YorubaFynest:
Ibo christian still showing his anger

YorubaFynest:
Ibo christian. Always so bitter and hateful.

SUPERPACK:
bt h was nt arrested by the president or DSS, bt rather for naming his dog , the surname of his neighbour. so the case is btw him and the neighbour.

YorubaFynest:
It sucks to be an Ibo Chrustian extremist. Always so bitter and full of hate.

Go ans show your intolance in the SE, not in the SW. I hope the nimrod is flogged.

StOla:
Why are some people so self-destructive, suicidal and craving for conflict and anarchy?

The Northerners did not misconstrue his intention. They know him to be a hateful Igbo, the likes of which vent their frustration and misery on this forum and other online media. Now an Ipob member who has forgotten he is not in Aba, has met his match in Buhari's tribesmen. Even if the complainant is claiming to have Buhari as his father's name / surname, it is evident that both defendant and plaintiff are fighting a tribal proxy war over President Buhari.

Can he name his dog Ojukwu or Azikiwe? Imagine a Yoruba man in Nnewi naming his goat Ojukwu, or a Fulani man in Aba naming his dog Nnamdi Kanu and parading it around the IPOB meeting centres? That is the suicidal attribute the Igbos are known for. Imagine using such a revered name in a community populated by Hausa-Fulani? Even if he had named the dog Awolowo, I know his Yoruba hosts may find it repulsive, but would not react violently, resulting in the boldness of the Igbo man who then concludes that Yorubas are cowards and are docile.

Since the Igbo man welcomes bravery and detest the peaceful Yorubas as weaklings, let him celebrate and enjoy the bravery of his Hausa-Fulani neighbours. It is stupidity such as this that was displayed by Igbos in the North, that led to their slaughter in the Northern pogroms as a Northern civilian reaction to the Jan 1966 coup killings of Northern politicians and Army officers.

However, whether the coward directed his friends of hate to eat up his own dog is irrelevant as no case exist here, talk-less of an implication. Nevertheless, the arrested man is safer in that police custody as his bigoted life will be wasted without a second thought, the moment he steps out of police "custodial protection".
We all know the Hausa-Fulani, they don't need to mouth hatred and beat their hollow chest to teach an equally hateful lesson.

See what hate has caused now? His days of peace are over in that community. Except he is released by the police directly at Aba, where his fellow bigoted clansmen will welcome him as a hero who had to runaway from Yorubaland because of Hausa-Fulanis who are his fellow settlers.

After his brain was reset at the police station, hear him declare eternal love for Buhari.

adewumiopeyemi:
why bringing tribalism in this issue..... seriously is wrong...

AlphaCentauri:
no i did not kill them. they got killed by angry whites. now answer me, will you allow yoruba man to govern anambra or imo state ?

hypocrites everywhere

grodt999:
Yes, when they have a long and distinguished career selling drugs without being caught they go on to become a "blessing to the world".

The majority of black drug dealers in Holland and Germany are ibos, if he got away with it and later set himself up good for him.
