THE FIRST HUNDRED DAYS
Roosevelt’s quest to end the Great Depression
was just beginning. Next,he asked Congress to
take the first step toward ending Prohibition—
one of the more divisive issues of the 1920s—
by making it legal once again for Americans to
buy beer. (At the end of the year, Congress
ratified the 21st Amendment and ended
Prohibition for good.) In May, he signed the
Tennessee Valley Authority Act into law,
enabling the federal government to build dams
along the Tennessee River that controlled
flooding and generated inexpensive
hydroelectric power for the people in the region.
That same month, Congress passed a bill that
paid commodity farmers (farmers who
produced things like wheat, dairy products,
tobacco and corn) to leave their fields fallow in
order to end agricultural surpluses and boost
prices. June’s National Industrial Recovery Act
guaranteed that workers would have the right
to unionize and bargain collectively for higher
wages and better working conditions; it also
suspended some antitrust laws and established
a federally funded Public Works Administration.

Owners’ Loan Act, in his first 100 days in

Alphaoscar:pls read this and stop that blame of 16 years misrule that's why they are voted out so that new government can come in and save us not blame.

sexyexcalibur:in Jesus name amen |
seriously 95% of people on Nairaland are fools. see the way they are hailing the action of DSS for arresting and detaining a serving member of the house without any charges. so any one that is arrested these is guilty? hmmmm no wonder why they called Nigeria zoo. I have finally come to accept that name that it fits the country cus in a real world all this can never happen. if you know he is guilty then take him to court. |
kettykin:my brother God bless you. God will punish buhari |
I am very disturbed that Buhari
does not yet have an economic direction. Neither
is there an anchor. There is no clarity. What we
are getting are mixed messages, bits and pieces
here and there. I am hearing sweet statements
and poetic promises, a lot of rhymes and
alliterations, from APC leaders and ministers.
There is no proper articulation so that we can
have an idea of where we are headed. There are
so many dots that are not connecting. I have
this impression everybody is just doing their own
thing without any overarching strategy to
connect these dots. I can’t see coherence. I
can’t see a roadmap. I can’t see what to hold on
to.
Agreed, Buhari is not an economist. But you
don’t have to be an economist to lead a nation
to prosperity. All you need is a damn good
economic team worth its onions. The team must
have an anchor. We are neck-deep in an
economic crisis and this requires emergency
reaction. Even though Buhari is a strong
character who stands by what he believes in,
there must also be some flexibility. Economic
crises are better tackled with a combination of
antidotes. It is good that Buhari is a patriot and
an honest man. It is good that Buhari means
well. But meaning well does not solve these
problems. He must also do well. The economy is
in limbo, let’s be honest about it.
Mr. President, it’s time to wake up and smell the
coffee. We need to see your development
blueprint. We want to understand your policies,
programmes and strategies. We want to see the
goals and the goalposts. Your party says one
thing today, you say another tomorrow. That you
met a mess on ground is the same reason the
majority of voters chose you. If they wanted the
mess to continue, they would have maintained
the status quo. And while we cannot expect you
to clear the mess in 10 months, we need a
mental picture of where you are taking us. I
have no doubt that you can turn out to be the
best Nigerian president ever, but where is the
beef? |
good one |
its on record now that Nigeria have the highest
number of foolish people on earth if not how can
a sensible person vote buhari as President? |

una never see anything. some people are still defending this government. |
wow |
good move |
Tell them |
hmmmm |
very good. it has not even started until una start protest for street. |
he just nailed it. tribalism is killing Nigeria if not buhari can never rule Nigeria. |
that's what buhari taught them |
nice one |
this man is crazy |
am just observing |
hmmmm this man is really mean so he used government money to travel all the way to equatorial guenue just to collect award? I pity Nigeria |
obi was good and obiano is trying |
I wish him safe return. let him enjoy it while it lasts |
hmmmmm nice one |
nice one |
you see Igbo people with wisdom. upon the fact that he is a lawyer, he still have knowledge of economics that our minister of finance does not have but they will not listen to him cus he is an Igbo man. the day Nigeria will move forward is that day tribalism against the igbos will stop because the igbos hold the future of this country. |
nice one |
I support that |
still dominated by Hausa and Yoruba people just few Igbo people, this is the only reason Nigeria can never move forward as a country.Igbo people are pace setters any where they lead. |
let them keep it up after all buhari sent them so are the doing a good job. whatever buhari and his people does is good |
hmmmmmmm |
laughable. One of the greatest scam after subsidy claims and immigration scam.
