PoliticsRe: Nigeria: The Economic Upside- Kemi Adeosun by leonbob: 12:37pm On Mar 08, 2016
pjecly:
@Leonbob.......Mention any of the "unguarded statements" made by PMB abroad
Then, You are among the set of pple that belong to the waillers, Wailing about his interview abroad.
The question is this.....Should he disregard the question if he's asked?
you can call me all you want but I am objective in my analysis cuz am not a zombie that swallows everything, right or wrong.
many uninformed Nigerians know only how to support but do not know how to make demands on their leaders and this is very sad

unfortunately we are presently towing the same path PDP supporters towed which led to the mess the party got Nigeria into.
PoliticsGumi Advises Buhari To Reverse Tough Economic Policies by leonbob(op): 11:00am On Mar 08, 2016
- Sheikh Ahmad Gumi says Buhari needs to reverse
economic policies
– The Islamic cleric says Dasuki does not deserve to be
detained

Dr. Ahmad Abubakar Gumi has blamed President
Muhammadu Buhari for the current economic hardship and
has warned the president to reverse the austere measures
he has taken in order to make Nigerians happy.
In an interview with Leadership, the Kaduna-based cleric
also spoke on the continued detention of Sambo Dasuki,
the former national security adviser and other officials who
served during the administration of Goodluck Jonathan. He
said they were only errand boys and that putting them in
prison was against the principle of justice.

‘‘Of course there is the oil glut and the price has gone
down but still, half of the problem is because of the
government policies on the economy. I’ve heard one of the
economists say, one, there is no clear-cut economic
blueprint by the government.

“Secondly, people will be so surprised that to know that
during Jonathan’s regime, a lot of money was brought out
from the government’s coffers and distributed widely
across the country and this improved the circulation of
currency among the populace.
“So, what Nigeria needs now is not just to tighten the
mouth but to spend more judiciously on even the private
sector. There are airlines that are collapsing, give them a
lot of soft loans, banks are collapsing, give them money.
What truly Nigeria needs now is first aid. Let food be
cheap and available, let fuel be cheap and available, let
education be a priority.”

He urged President Buhari to stick to the constitution
which makes every suspect innocent until proven guilty.
He said it would be unjust to arrest former president,
Jonathan as the circumstances surrounding the supposed
misappropriation of fund were not clear to anyone.
“Dasuki was the NSA, an adviser to the president and was
directly responsible to the president, so I think detaining
Dasuki for even one second for whatever he did, is wrong
and unfair. God is not unjust,” he said.
Gumi recently caused a stir when he claimed Sheikh
Ibraheem El-Zakzaky, the leader of the Islamic Movement
in Nigeria of running a parallel government in the North for
40 years.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria: The Economic Upside- Kemi Adeosun by leonbob: 9:21am On Mar 08, 2016
my problem with this administration is their lack of readiness to rule and more annoying is their inability to carry the populace along

why would a president announce his plans only when he's abroad making unguarded statements
angry

On the contrary, I think it's pple like u who expect others to keep unrealistic promises that politicians deceive.

You can also ask Obama, Putin, Hollande and other world leaders why they haven't ended terrorism in the world....the answer is simple, unconventional warefare is not the type that works with promises and deadlines.

Thank you, who's next? kiss
can't believe you actually types these expected better than this from someone of your calibre but its unfortunate that you are also one of the 'illiterate' electorates in this country (no offence pls)

if a general retired who fought in a civil war could open his mouth to affirm something he's not sure of just to get votes, is that not more pathetic than expected?

you expect a general of his pedigree to talk with more sense and precise military intelligence when it comes to insurgency but what we had was a general turned politician who lied to us just to get into aso rock which had eluded him for years.

its quite unfortunate that you could easily be described and more unfortunate that you are still being deceived!

so if Obama, Putin and the rest could not stop insurgency according to you, it means they lied about their campaign promises? no one is saying insurgency can be stopped but can be reduced but our president promised during his campaign to STOP and put an end to insurgency!

pls its high time we educate our electorate to wise up and demand fulfilment of every single campaign promises made by our politicians and my man, stop supporting mediocrity its not good for your health cheesy

Mcbussy:
Nah so deadline easy to meet?... Just d way US and British forces met d deadline on Alqaeda in Iraq, or Taliban in Afghanistan, right?

Some people have no clue about counter insurgency. I think people should read more on unconventional warfare or guerrilla warfare. These kind of wars hardly end...thats just d bitter truth.
so what you saying is that the guy that promised to end insurgency within 3 months if assuming office was stoopid to say so? or we that demand he keeps to his word are stoopid?

my friend stop being a stooge demand that our politicians keep to their promises and stop deceiving people like you

I think PMB is overwhelmed by the multiplicity and complexity of Nigeria's problems that the guy is lost, short of ideas and practically chasing shadows

PMB cannot come to terms with the vast difference between when he left as military head of state and now that he's Mr President furthermore age is not helping him cheesy
PoliticsPartisan Politics: The Gullibility Of Supporters by leonbob(op): 10:03am On Nov 18, 2015
This thread is strictly to jolt to life members of the Nigerian public to their responsibilities and the power they hold as members of any political party they choose.

I have been following rather actions and reactions of party followers in the Nigeria polity for some time now.
its with a sense of regret and sadness that I came to terms with the level of gullibility the party followers display just to express their unflinching support for their political parties.

the players in the polity mainly politicians and followers seem to have been narrowed down to the politicians with the followers used as tools instead of being partners in determining key decisions in the parties.

prevalent spread of poverty, illiteracy and greed has dethroned the followers or supporters from the chair of decision making to puns which can be easily discarded after use. many supporters are mere figure heads who are comfortable shouting slogans they have no understanding of and fighting on behalf of a politician who has no plan to improve the supporters or their community as a whole.

party supporters must learn to hold their politicians accountable instead of shielding them from every criticism by allowing them prove every word they utter during the campaign periods. its high time the supporters started allowing reasoning dictate their actions and reactions.

politics is a tactical game where all the elements struggle to dominate the others but here in Nigeria we allow the politicians whom we owe dictate and dominate us.

PoliticsRe: Former Pres. Jonathan, PDP Were Not Mentally Prepared For Defeat – Buhari by leonbob: 8:06pm On Nov 16, 2015
APC is more mentally unprepared for the victory they illegally got cuz PMB was more shocked when he was congratulated than GEJ who knew he lost.
Every move by this government confirms that their opposition mentality is still predominant in their thoughts with fight at every step of the way, show of shame in the NASS and the eventual selection of "noise makers" as ministers whom PMB termed "saints" ridiculing himself and the party before committee of nations. TSA scandal at the early stage of this new administration within 2 months of TSA some people had made 22bill from doing nothing.
APC = PDP

its very unfortunate that we have leaders, past and present, that are clueless senseless greedy and visionless.
when the leadership fails to deal wisely, the followership is bound to run wild.
this problem is not PMBs but the totality of all that has ever led this nation. our priorities are wrong, our choices are self centered. people dying as a result of bomb explosion is no longer any worry to the government of the day, meanwhile these are the people that defied sun and rain to vote these scumbags into power. people die like chickens and nobody gives a fvck huh

One of my muslim friend traveled throughout the Middle East; he shared with me with sadness how dark skinned Africans were treated negative in Mecca, Saudi Arabia during Hajj. Islam has become more Arabism than Islam, but most Africans Muslims want to overlook the Arab racism in Islam. In Islam you will always find the dark skinned Africans people subservient to the Arab light skinned ruling class.
