Politics › I Didn’t Know Why I Came To Rule Now –buhari by happney65(op): 8:21am On Feb 06, 2016
President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday said that with the quantum of problems his administration inherited, he sometimes wondered why he had to seek power at this time.

Buhari spoke in London while addressing members of the Nigerian community in the United Kingdom.

Our correspondent obtained a transcript of the President’s address to the gathering on Friday.

Buhari said he wondered why oil, which used to sell for over $140 per barrel, would reduce to $30 per barrel during his time as the President.


Notwithstanding the problem, however, Buhari said he kept praying to God to be merciful to the over 170 million Nigerians who are exposed to poverty, illiteracy and other social ills.

He said, “With the problems we have in this government, I sometimes wonder. At least, this time around, I asked for it, I prayed for it, I went round the country and I asked for it. But the first time under the military, I allowed the military to take decision.

“But I say why me? Why is it that it is when they have spent all the money, when they made the country insecure that I returned?

“Why didn’t I come when the treasury was full? Oil price was over $140 per barrel and when I came, it slipped down to $30. Why me?

“I keep on praying to God to pity Nigeria and its over 170 million people who are exposed to climate change, illiteracy and poverty.”

The President, however, said his administration had succeeded in mopping up over N2.2trn as of January through the Treasury Single Account arrangement.

He said although the TSA was introduced by the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, that administration could not implement it for reasons best known to its officials.

He said his administration decided to implement the arrangement when he came on board and discovered that the country was broke.

The President said, “You know the condition we are in now. I am sure with demands from home, in spite of what your effort is, you know we are really in trouble.

“We have tried to impose what we call Treasury Single Account. The reason is simple. This government did not initiate it, it was initiated by the previous government. But it was so unpopular to the bureaucracy, so the previous government for its own reasons, could not impose it.

“But when we came and we found out that we were broke, we said this is the way to do it.

“I will tell you two examples to convince you. Firstly, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation had more than 45 accounts. Ministry of Defence had more than 70 accounts. Tell me which Accountant-General can trace all these accounts?

“So, we imposed TSA. By the end of December, coming to January 2016, we mopped up more than N2.2trn which would have been used through bureaucratic system to raise vouchers and sign cheques so that they don’t go into the next budget.”

The President said Nigeria owed the United States and Britain a lot of appreciation for stopping the former administration from rigging the last presidential election.

He recalled that ahead of the elections, the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.), urged the service chiefs and the then Inspector-General of Police to tell officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission that they could not guarantee their safety during the polls.

He said the then Chairman of INEC, Prof. Attahiru Jega, however, gave a comprehensive report at a meeting of the National Council of State, where he said he would be able to deliver, at least, 60 per cent free and fair election.

The President said as of that time, the country had never gone beyond 45 per cent.

He said it took the intervention of US Secretary of State, John Kerry, for the last administration to conduct credible election.

He said, “Then we insisted that election must be done according to the constitution.

“At this point again, I must hasten to thank the United States for sending the Secretary of State, Kerry, to go and read the riot act to the previous government and speak to Prof. Jega, the Chairman of INEC and speak to us as opposition that the US would not tolerate any election outside the Nigerian constitution.

“They maintained the pressure from that date until after the election and the formation of the new government.

“I think Nigerians honestly should thank the US for this. The same thing with Britain, they used all their experience and their powers to make sure that the Federal Government did not rig the last election.

“We thank God, we thank these super powers and we thank technology. Why we thank technology is because of the permanent voter cards and the card readers.”

Buhari said the issue of Diaspora voting had been coming up in all the countries he had visited since the inception of his administration.

Politics › APC Will Soon Collapse—olu Falae by happney65(op): 4:11pm On Feb 03, 2016
A Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Olu Falae, has predicted “things would soon fall apart” for the members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Mr. Falae, who is the national chairman of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), mocked the APC for branding itself a “mega party,” but said the party was likely to totally collapse soon.

Mr. Falae spoke at the SDP’s secretariat in Akure, capital of Ondo State, while welcoming Olu Agunloye, a former member of the Peoples Democratic Party and close ally of Governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State, who defected to the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

Mr. Agunloye, a former Minister of Power and Steel as well as erstwhile Minister for Defense, had quietly defected from the PDP to the SDP last weekend in Akure.

Mr. Falae was recently named as a recipient of N100 million from Tony
Anenih, a former chairman of the PDP’s board of trustee. Nigerian investigators have suggested that the largesse was diverted from $2.1 billion budgeted for the procurement of weapons to enable the Nigerian military to better combat Islamist insurgents operating in Nigeria’s northeast. Former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, has been arraigned in court for disbursing the defense funds to numerous political, media and business interest for purely partisan use.

Mr. Falae, who has denied receiving any funds from Mr. Dasuki, described the various political parties that came together to form the APC as opportunists who wish to share Nigeria’s collective resources.

He said the APC was made up of “uncommitted individuals,” adding that their major aim was to share money. “They will disintegrate very soon,” he added.

Mr. Falae added: “They have no plan for this country and they are not progressive-minded people. And that's why they have nothing to show in the last seven months that they have assumed power and leadership control of
the country.”

Mr. Falae had expressed anger that his name was linked to the still unfolding scandal around Mr. Dasuki, insisting that the funds he received from Mr. Anenih were meant to empower his political party to campaign for the reelection of President Goodluck Jonathan. The SDP had struck an agreement to back Mr. Jonathan, who however lost to Mr. Muhammadu Buhari of the APC.


“All Progressives Party (APC) will soon collapse because they are made
up of uncommitted party members who only believe in sharing the
money,” Mr. Falae said.

After being welcomed into the SDP, Mr. Agunloye promised to ensure that the party emerged victorious in governorship elections coming up later this year.

Yes we are supposed to be gratefull..Maybe you should ask Kenyans what happened to them after the postelection crises and uhurru kenyatta is still their president and nothing dey happen..I guess if your Mr Bubu has accepted defeat in good faith in 2011 lives would not have being lost as it did in 2011.As for now any African leader that steps down after defeat should be commended cos its something we don't do here..From Egypt to Libya to West Africa and East Africa,it's the Same..So.if an individual decides to do the right thing he deserves commendation...
