I'd rather be led by an illiterate who knows that "stealing is corruption"
Than to be led by a prof who says "stealing is not corruption"

One more thing,your myopia should bother you more.

WHAT IS THE BEAUTY OF DEMOCRACY?

- I will make an attempt for you.
Its beauty is that empowering capacity to be flexible and chose, after 4 years a different party and see what they have to offer towards the betterment of the state.

I can only view with suspicions someone that subcribes to a leadership that reins itself into power and wishes to rule for upwards of 4yrs or 6yrs (with no felt changes or improvements) and still clamouring for more years.

Anyone that subcribes to this inclination on a good day, unconsciously will suppport a maximum leadership.
He will support dicatorship that rules endlessly.

Buhari said, "He will stabilize oil price..."

Honestly, just like you, I've reasons to doubt that.
But then, the beauty of democracy empowers me to give him a chance and see how he's going to do that.
Even if he doesn't achieve it, at least let's sEe his attempt or blueprint.
Some great leaders only legacies to their nations are their blueprints and vision.

When you don't exercise these rights and chose to drink from one soup for 10yrs, sometimes you will realize you shortchanged yourself because you were ruled by vain ethno religious emotions.

Its so good so many Nigerians have woken to the truth and not ruled by geo ethno tribal sentiments which hitherto blinded their eyes to the damaging shortcomings of this govt.

There's a govt-
That met over 30trillion in excess crude account and now, has a little over 3trilion with no credible accountability on what depleted the figure.

There's a govt-
In 6yrs, can only boast of achievements in agriculture and the rail system.

There's a govt-
That privatised NEPA and a year after, no improvement is felt across the land.

There's a govt-
That controls EFCC but hasn't prosecuted a single corrupt case to its logical end since inception.

There's a govt-
That wants to wipe corruption but says "stealing isn't corruption"

There's a govt-
Whose chief media spokesmen are people with corrupt charges on their neck who were pardoned by their leader (who just came up with a plan to deal with corruption)

PLEASE NIGERIANS, OUR COUNTRY HAS BEEN A HUGE JOKE IN THE COMITY OF NATIONS.
COME FEB 14TH, LET'S PUSH GEO ETHNO RELIGIOUS SENTIMENTS ASIDE AND VOTE TO REDEEM OUR NATION.

MAY GOD BLESS NIGERIA.

I am gonna make it tangible and simple enough for you.

1) Did Buhari not plot a coup?
2) Did he not overthrow a democratically elected government?
3) Were Nigerians not treated like animals without human rights?
4) Did Buhari not jail Ekwueme, Mbakwe, Ambrose Ali and others, while Shagari was given a presidential treatment that was termed house arrest?
5) Did Buhari not serve under Abacha and proclaimed him a saint?
6) Did Buhari not refuse to appear before Oputa panel?
7) Did Buhari not make those divisive and inflamatory comments?
Has he not refused to present his certificates to INEC and chose to use affidavit and plaques to prove that he is educated?

Guy, I don't know why any sensible nigerian will agree to go back to our old generals once again. They are the reason we are here today as a nation. Buhari hasn't done anything with his spare time since retirement. He didn't become a successful businessman. He's not successful in farming. He hasnt been very successful in politics either.

You ever wondered why he was a "huge success"" in the army only? Quota system. Favouritism. Nepotism. Man know man. Fulani-Hausa grip on our system. Buhari wouldnt rise above a warrant officer II, if he were Ibo, Ijaw, Ikwere or Ibibio.

I am not about to play God here and now, so I will give GMB credit for his unwavering spirit and determination to rule his fatherland one last time. Kudos. If it be the will of God, nobody can stop Buhari. Destiny may be delayed but it will never be denied. But if it is not God's will, I hope Buhari, APC and supporters will be magnanimous enough to accept the people's verdict.

God bless Nigerians.

makzeze:
Nigeria's outgoing president Goodluck Jonathan steps down for Buhari come May 2015.

Nigeria's former vice president Namadi Sambo handsover to Osinbajo come May 2015.

Nigeria's newly elected President Muhammadu Buhari just sworn into office at eagle square Abuja come 29 May 2015.

Newly elected vice president of Nigeria Prof. Yemi Osinbajo took oath of office come May 2015.

Only in Nigeria will a presidential candidate present this as certificate, what happened to the original copy? He can't get the war college to give him another copy?

And why did he go with Shekau?

How Obasanjo’s Report Indicted Buhari in 1999

06 Jan 2015

Ojo M. Maduekwe

In the face of deepening world economic crisis, the ability of the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari, to manage the Nigerian economy and fight corruption, if elected president, has been called to question.

THISDAY over the weekend, exclusively took hold of the original copy of a report by the Petroleum (Special) Trust Fund (PTF) Interim Management Committee, instituted on July 7, 1999 by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Based on this report, the PTF under Buhari's supervision was mismanaged. The report was however neither made public nor was it acted upon by the former president.

In its summary, the Committee had advised Obasanjo to "set up a high powered judicial panel to recover the huge public fund and to take necessary action against any officer, consultant or contractor whose negligence resulted in this colossal loss of public funds."

According to the report, the sum of N25,758,532,448 was mismanaged by the Afri-Project Consortium (APC), a company contracted by the PTF as management and project consultant. Buhari as PTF chairman was said to have also "delegated to them the power of Engineer in all appropriate project requiring such power," which made them assume absolute powers to initiate, approve and execute all projects by the PTF.

The mismanagement that took place in the PTF under Buhari's watch was said to have been carried out by the APC (the company) in their capacity as management and project consultants. Both their management services fee and budget for several projects carried out during the existence of the PTF were greatly overpriced.

While carrying out its obligations, the Committee made up of Dr. Haroun Adam as Chairman, and Alhaji Abdu Abdurrahim, Mr Achana Gaius Yaro, Edward Eguavoen, Mr. T. Andrew Adegboro and Mr. Baba Goni Machina as members, engaged three management consulting firms to verify all payments made to PTF from inception to September 30, 1999.

On verification, according to the Committee, "it was found that they (the consulting firms) had overcharged PTF for their services to the tune of N2,057,550,062". Also, while intervening on behalf of the PTF in the road and waterways, education, food, health, and other sectors, the APC, according to the report, inflated all the prices.

For instance, intervention in the health sector, was said to have totalled N9 billion. Projects in this sector were said to have been executed by the APC and PTF in-house staff, and loss of billions of naira were recorded due to price inflation of products and services.

To purchase spectacle frames, which could have been done locally at a price between N80 to N880, the APC, under the watch of the PTF chairman, bought them at an inflated price of N1,900 each. Ambulances were said to have been purchased at N13 million per unit, instead of N3 million. And then price inflation of drugs were done to the tune of N1.5 billion.

The report also said that the PTF lost money to the tune of N3.5 billion from its bank account operations. The PTF operated its bank accounts under three different categories: Administration, Project and Treasury accounts, and the loss of money to these accounts were said to have been due to "overcharge on Cost of Turnover (CoT), non-payment of interest on current account balances as stipulated by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), short payment of interest on deposited funds, and other various discrepancies."

While discharging their duties, the Committee discovered that an average income of N182 billion accrued to the PTF from its inception to the date of filing their report. According to the Committee’s report, the PTF used about 70 per cent of that income on highways and urban road projects.

The report stated further that, "In this project sector there was total variation of contract sums of N68 billion. These variations were not done with properly priced bills of quantities and approved civil contracts procedure as stipulated by government regulations.

"Taking the experience of what has been discovered after verification of various contracts awarded by PTF the minimum potential recovery will be about 15%. This estimated percentage will be about N10 billion. The verification of this project sector was about to take off when the committee members were replaced."
