If GEJ had removed subsidy would the money not go like DASUKI GATE? The partial removal of subsidy went down the drain with nothing to show for it, all promises of new refineries and road only appeared in our dreams and imagination.
Stupiiid Jonathan and his ministers Call gej and his ministers stupid and call buhari and his ministers what.dasukigate is just an avenue to keep us busy discussing gej administration why they impoverish us through anti people policies.all of them are involved in dasukigate so why all the hypocrisy.any saint amongst apc should stone dasuki and if that stoner is not a saint may thunder strike him or her dead from above.. using dasuki as an excuse meanwhile nothing is in their brains and it is even unfortunate that returning to school is far from it.mtchewwww |

I keep wondering why a lot of nigerians becloud their sense of judge with partisan sentiment at the expense of the economy. The subsidy removal protest then was in many ways justified since crude oil price was still hovering between 80 dollars to above 100 dollars per barrel. The cost of producing a barrel was 30 dollars and the govt had upto 60 dollars left to share btw itself and its venture partners.
Today, crude oil sells for as low as 38 dollars and still expected to fall further. We can hardly fund our budget because profit margin is as low as 8 dollars per barrel. The gap is so huge that if we continue to fund subsidy with the meagre we make from crude oil, its only a matter of time before the economy comes crashing down.
Jagaban's call for removal of subsidy at this point in time is just the right thing to do economically. The money should be channeled into building our infrastructures like power, railway, highway,schools etc. These sectors will form a solid base for a diversified economy. A lot of nigerians opposed subsidy then because no one trusted the GEJ's pdp led govt. As at that time, other economies were increasing their foreign reserve while we were depleting it. Today, algeria has almost 100 billion dollars in its foreign reserve and a national debt profile of 5 billion dolars. Compare that to our own 29.5 billion dollars reserve and a debt profile of over 15 billion dollars. Who is responsible for this anomaly? Your guess is as good as mine.
The two countries are monolithic based economies, algeria has a well developed infrastructural system.the same cannot be said of nigeria.We have a larger population which by all general economic index should be an advantage. If you are apc agent pllllllllleasssssssssssse please just keep quiet .Take a look at nigeria and score buhari.it is zero per cent. During gejs tenure we never witnessed political assassinations, he never interefered in electoral matters.look at buhari today, first he appointed 98percent hausas I mean core northerners to head inec. bayelsa inconclusive, wike sacked, akwaibom sacked, t, taraba sacked , fayose is also in the line. Of course the world is watching and I bet you buhari has come to pay for his atrocities.his vengeance nature has derailed his zero ideas.buhari said there is no subsidy and we have assimilated that so he shouldn't mention subsidy now . A wicked leader is the worst ever to happen to us . Jonathan had a human face but the arrogant man in aso rock is mean but buhari should not try God He should check our history.when nigerians begin to cry and pray things happen ohhhhh. |

Ofodirinwa:
However, because the distance between government and the people is far and genuine level of affection is low, government sees no utility in continuing to spend the current level of money on the people. In their mind, the people are not worth the money. Government sees more value in “saving” money than in saving the hard-pressed masses.
Yet, what does government actually saveu by this measure? The concept of a government that has the unfettered ability to print its own currency needing to save that currency for fear of insolvency is an anachronism. That his economic advisors would cling to this notion is like a person insisting on taking to the expressway in a horse-drawn carriage. For a government that prints its own currency, attempting to save in that very currency in order to defend against bankruptcy in that currency is a relic of the gold standard abandoned forty years ago. If government thrashed the fuel subsidy based on considerations that it will run out of naira then it based its decision on a factor that have not been relevant since the time of the Biafran war.
In 1971, the world left the gold standard replacing it with “state” or “fiat money.” Under the gold standard, a nation had to save gold to support its currency or risk insolvency. After 1971, bondage to gold was broken. Since then, the worth of a nation’s currency is not tied to gold which means that the ability of a nation to print currency is not determined by its holdings of gold. The worth of the currency is based on the strength of the economy and the amount of money the nation prints is determined by that strength as well as the nation’s future economic objectives. A nation can no longer fall insolvent concerning debts or payments issued in the national currency. As long as the fuel subsidy is paid in naira, then Nigeria cannot go bankrupt paying it any more than the ocean can run out of salt water. In a fiat money system, the problem with the fuel subsidy is not impending insolvency as the government asserts. The serious constraint is inflation. Here we must ask whether the payment is so inflationary as to distort the economy. We have been making the payment for years and inflation has not wrecked the economy. This historic evidence refutes the imminent disaster claimed by government.
In advancing the argument that subsidy would lead to imminent bankruptcy, government reveals its lack of trustworthiness on important matters of fact. Is this the same government that several weeks ago claimed Nigeria was among the world’s best performing economies with a GDP growth rate of 7 percent annually? It seems government has a vast canvas on which it can paint a number of different scenarios of Nigeria depending on the whim of the moment. While government may alter its portrait of the nation, the people are forced to live one reality at a time. Is Nigeria a fast growing economy? If the nation’s GDP is growing so strongly, the subsidy or a similar expenditure on the people cannot be the lethal burden government now maligns it to be.
Nigerians have a collective stake in the ownership of our oil resource held in trust by the government of the day. What we need then is the effective management of this scarce resource that will beget long term prosperity to the suffering people of Nigeria and not the present racket in which those in power abuse access and control of NNPC and oil revenue to warehouse money to fund their election campaigns.
This brings us to another inconsistency. On one hand, government states the expenditure is unsustainable yet on the other it claims the amount now earmarked for the subsidy will be used to fund other people-oriented programs. However, the two assertions cannot exist at the same time . If the subsidy is bankrupting us, then reallocating funds to different programs will be no less harmful. A bankrupting expenditure retains this quality whether used for the subsidy or another purpose. Earmarking the funds to something else will not change the fiscal impact. If government is sincere about using the funds for other programs, then it must be insincere about the threatened insolvency.
The concern about government saving naira is purely superfluous. Officials cry that Nigeria will become like Greece. Those who say this disqualify themselves from high office by their own words. Greece sits in a terrible situation because it forfeited its own currency. Thus, it cannot print itself out of insolvency and it must save or earn euro to pay its bills. Because Nigeria issues its own currency, it does not face the same constraint. Again, Nigeria’s problem with the subsidy is not insolvency. Therefore, to go from subsidy to nothing is not wise economics for it “saves” government nothing. What it does is produce real havoc and misery for the majority of the people while the governing elite worship their mistaken fiscal rectitude. Ironically, by acting like the old gold standard fiscal constraints are real, this government will incur the very thing it seeks to avoid. It will subject Nigeria to a crushing economic contraction. The difference between us and the Greeks will be that their situation is the inevitable result of being a weak member in a monetary union dominated by a strong economy, while our downturn will be a discretionary one artificially induced by the backwardness of our policymakers.
By its action, our government placed itself on the list of conservative governments imposing unwise austerity programs on tired and weak economies. The results have been alarming. Greece, Ireland, Spain, Italy, and the UK have imposed stiff austerity. Each nation that has done so now has an intimate relationship with recession. Must we travel the same path? Why does our government think an independently-minded Nigerian success is inferior to the mimicry of European failure? I don’t understand why we take this road. Our government has allied itself with the goals of the European conservatives and not with the needs of the Nigerian populace. No one plucks a chicken to feed his children feathers. Nor does a man set his house on fire just so people can bring him water. However, this is spirit behind government policy. There has been no nation on the face of the planet that has developed or achieved long-term prosperity by devotion to conservative, ultra-free market economic ideas that dominate this government. America, the United Kingdom, and now China all based their initial thrust toward national economic development on significant government interplay in the economy and on sustained government fiscal deficits. If no nation has grown using these conservative ideas when growth was constrained by the gold standard, why would we shackle ourselves to these ideas when we operate under a monetary system that provides the federal government greater policy latitude to achieve economic development objectives.
Again, we must rid ourselves of the old notion that government saving and budgetary surpluses are inherently good and that deficits are always bad. For government to save naira, that means it brings in more than it pays out. Where does this influx come from? It comes from you and me, the private sector. If the federal government saves more, it means the private sector will have less. Government surplus means private sector contraction. This shows that the administration has its priorities confused. It acts as if the people are there to help government run itself. The more beneficial relationship is that government should be giving people the help needed to better live their lives. The government’s position is akin to a wealthy parent demanding his young children bring home more food for him to consume than the parent gives them to eat. We would deride any parent for such meanness. Yet, this government believes this conduct is wise and prudent.
Another argument government has presented is that removal of the subsidy will stabilize the exchange rate. This makes no sense. True, since marketers convert much of the naira from selling petrol gained into dollars, there is downward pressure on the exchange rate and foreign reserves. However, this pressure is not a byproduct of the subsidy. It is a byproduct of importation. With the subsidy lifted, the marketers will earn the same or more from the sale of petrol. For there to be less pressure on the exchange rate would mean the marketers would seek to exchange significantly less of the same amount of naira into dollars simply because the subsidy was removed. There is no logical basis to assume the new Jonathan tax will have the behavioral impact of causing importers to want to hold more naira. The downward pressure on our currency and reserves will not change simply because the imported items are no longer subsidized. In fact, the higher rate of inflation caused by the removal may make importers keener to change naira into dollars. Thus, the real challenge in this regard is for government to pave the way to increased domestic production.
There is another “philosophical mystery” in the government’s position. They state the subsidy must be removed to end the unjust enrichment of the importing cabal. There is a major problem with this assertion. If this is truly a subsidy, there should be no unjust enrichment. A subsidy is created to allow the general public to pay a lesser price while sellers earn the prevailing market price. Subsidy removal should not increase or decrease the amount earned per litre by the suppliers. If the amount earned by the suppliers will diminish materially, what government had been operating was in part a pro-importer price support mechanism on top of the consumer-friendly subsidy. If this is the case, government could have abolished the unneeded price support while retaining the consumer subsidy. More to the point, government has failed to show how the system it plans to use will be protected from the undue influence and unfair dealings of those who benefited from the discarded subsidy regime. Because it is capital intensive by its very nature, this sector of the economy is susceptible to control by a few powerful companies. Most of the players will remain the same except that a few cronies of the administration will be allowed entrance into the lucrative game. Sending the economy into the gutter is a steep cost to pay just so a few friends can reap a new windfall.
Government claims the subsidy removal will create jobs. This is misleading. The stronger truth is that it will destroy more jobs than it creates. For every job it creates in the capital intensive petroleum sector, it will terminate several jobs in the rest of the labor intensive economy. Subsidy removal will increase costs across the board. However, salaries will not increase. This means demand for goods will lessen as will sales volumes and overall economic activity. The removal will have a recessionary impact on the economy as a whole. While some will benefit from the removal, most will experience setback.
What is doubtless is that the Jonathan tax will increase the price of petrol, transportation and most consumer items. With fuel prices increasing twofold or more, transportation costs will roughly double. Prices of food staples will increase between 25-50 percent. Yet this is more than about cost figures. Most people’s incomes are low and stagnant. They have no way to augment revenue and little room to lower expenses for they know no luxuries; they are already tapped out. The only alternative they have is to fend as best they can, knowing they must somehow again subtract something from their already bare existence. There will be less food, less medicine, and less school across the land. More children will cry in hunger and more parents will cry at their children’s despair. This is what government has done. Poor and middle class consumers will spend the same amount to buy much less. The volume of economic activity will drop like a stone tossed from a high building. This means real levels of demand will sink. The middle class to which our small businessmen belong will find their profit margins squeezed because they will face higher costs and reduced sales volumes. These small firms employ vast numbers of Nigerians. They will be hard pressed to maintain current employment levels given the higher costs and lower revenues they will face. Because the middle class businessman will be pinched, those who depend on the businessmen for employment will be heavily pressed. States that earn significant revenue from internally generated funds will find their positions damaged. Internally generated revenue will decline because of the pressure on general economic activity. The Jonathan tax will push Nigeria toward an inflation-recession combination punch worse than the one that has Europe reeling. This tax has doomed Nigeria to extra hardship for years to come while the promised benefits of deregulation will never be substantially realized. People will starve and families crumble while federal officials praise themselves for “saving money.” The purported savings amount to nothing more than an accounting entry on the government ledger board. They bear no indication of the real state of the economy or of the great harm done the people by this miserly step.
As stated before, the threat of bankruptcy is nothing more than a ghost of something long dead. The real consideration is not whether this sum should be spent but whether it is better spent on the subsidy or on other programs. Nigerians do not need to be wedded to the subsidy. It is not the subsidy that gives life to the social compact; the amount of the expenditure is the better litmus. When attempting to douse popular sentiment, government pretended that the social contract would remain intact because government would spend the money saved from the subsidy on other programs. This would be nice if supported by action. If government were sincere in this regard, it would have used an entirely different strategy. It would have looked on the removal as evolutionary, long-term process instead of as a sudden event accomplished by executive decree. If government had proceeded along these lines, it would have first perfected the plans for the new programs and projects that would receive the funds previously allocated the subsidy. These plans would have been in place and ready to implement. Only then would the subsidy be removed. To say that they will develop programs once the subsidy is removed suggests government‘s heart is not in these alternatives. Government only raised this possibility as a public relations afterthought to douse public opposition.
For instance, the government’s top spokesperson said it was obvious the Administration had guillotined the subsidy since it was not included in the 2012 budget. If we take this as the measure, there is no evidence in that budget of government transferring the bulk of “subsidy savings” to other programs. Using the reasoning employed by government itself, the budget reveals no sympathetic plan to buffer the effects of the Jonathan tax.
Even if government wanted to engage in naira-for-naira alternative social spending, it would take well over a year for the programs to have even minimal effect. Such expenditures would require new legislation. Given the pace of the National Assembly, such legislation would take months even if fast tracked. Then appropriations would have to be made before the process of procurement began. If the federal government were to buy sufficient buses to subsidize urban transport across the nation, orders would have to be placed for the purchase and importation of these buses. Again, months would elapse. If we are aiming at major road construction, the processes of project planning and contract bidding will require well over a year after a project is approved and funds appropriated. Last, government has just established a large committee to oversee this alternative expenditure. We have no need for another such body. If competent, government would not require this help. Moreover, we have seen this tactic before. Time and money will be devoted to running the committee. More attention will go to the committee’s emoluments than to its fundamental work. The actual parameters of the committee’s scope of work are nebulous and ill-defined. Will it have the authority to act or only advise? This looks like another blind alley where government hopes to misdirect our attention. This committee is not meant to accomplish anything except to numb public opposition. Government hopes people will posit confidence in the body because of the eminent people named to it. By the time the public discovers the committee is a zombie creation, too much time would have elapsed and it will be too late to reignite public protests. The people then will resign themselves to their fate. This trick has worked in the past; it will not work today because the people are much too aware and too agitated.
In the end, the federal government has done the nation an awful disservice at the worst time. This is an unneeded and avoidable emergency. Pursuing the grail of elitist economics, the federal government brings economic disaster to our doorstep. Attempting to protect government bank accounts from false bankruptcy, they push the people into real bankruptcy. Government is relying on the fact that the people are long-suffering and patient. They think the people will quickly forget this latest assault and return to the grueling challenge of daily survival. Government thinks people will be so fixated on survival that they will forget government has made survival more difficult. Rarely has a government been this cynical. Not even the reclusive Yar’adua or the dictator, Obasanjo placed this hardship on the people. Of course, Nigerians know that Obasanjo failed spectacularly to lay the necessary infrastructural foundation which could have made the recent removal of subsidy an easier decision for President Jonathan and a lesser burden for Nigerians to bear.
Nigeria in Jonathan is confronted with a government “on top of the people” rather than a “government for the people”. It is as if Jonathan has turned from president to pharaoh and has decreed that the people make bricks without straw. What manner of leader has he become? I don’t know. However, there is only one just way out of this distress. Government must modify the sudden and complete removal of the subsidy. Either we restore the subsidy or use the funds for other social purposes. If we are to use the funds for other programs, those programs shall be placed on parallel track with the subsidy. As more of these programs are ready to go on line, then the subsidy can be lifted in phases. In this way, the public is assured government will not lower its total expenditure on their behalf, thus maintaining the spirit central to the social contract. Fuel price increases will be moderated so as not to cause extreme economic distress. And the people will see and feel the benefit of the alternative programs at the same time of the cost increases, thus further blunting the adverse impact of those increases. Until this change occurs, the people must remain vigilant or else we will sink under the weight of what the federal government has done.

miqos02:
The National leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), and former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to remove fuel subsidy without further delay.
Speaking at the 10th memorial anniversary of late Bala Usman, Tinubu said, with the removal of subsidy, the money can be used to feed school children with the country’s local products, promote agriculture and create jobs.
Tinubu said there were too many demons in the subsidy system, adding that “It is better that we remove it and spend the money to save the people instead of expend the people to save the money.”
The APC national leader noted that if Bala Usman was to be alive, he would have equally called for immediate removal of the subsidy, adding that, “What I have said here is more than talk. It is a call to action”.
Tinubu said, “In a perfect world, I wish we could sanitize the subsidy regime and thus continue with it. However, I have reached the conclusion that there are too many demons in the system for that hell to be turned into heaven.
“It is better that we remove it, not for the purpose of saving money but to use the money more wisely that we might better save the people. Let us begin a process of a thoughtful, but decisive subsidy phase-out.
“While this is occurring, we should simultaneously phase in social programs benefiting the poorest, most vulnerable among us. Programmes such as transportation subsidies, school feeding, improved basic medical care and coverage for the poor, and potable water projects are some of the things that can be done with the same funds."
www.dailytrust.com.ng/news/general/remove-subsidy-stimulate-infrastructure-tinubu-tells-buhari/125009.html I lack words to qualify this man called thief and nungu. Imagine these fools telling us that subsidy has to be removed as soon as possible. Apc , do you still remember what you evil men did to jonathan. Okonjo laid out plans as to what they will do with subsidy if removed from petroleum but you evil men sponsored protests all over nigeria. I ask today where is tunde bakare Where is oby ezekwesili Where is elrufai Where is odumakin Where is seun kuti Where are the miscreants that were sponsored by the evil party to ground nigerian economy for almost one week. Where is the NLC or have you suddenly gone blind and dumb. Nigerians must rise against this wicked party. Buhari deceived us by telling us fuel would sell at even twenty or forty naira. Buhari what is subsidy and without the help of your aides .explain subsidy. There is no subsidy so don't tell nigerians that crap. In the name of the Almighty God, apc if you remove subsidy, God will visit not just you but your four generations . Look at us in nigeria today, , hungry and sick.look at us in nigeria today, sick and dying.dollar is almost 300naira to one dollar. Buhari I watched your campaign in rivers, you promised to make one naira equivalent to one dollar. Heeeiiiii apc look at yourselves, , fathers, grandfathers and think over your lies. So long as jonah was almost killed because of subsidy removal, Almighty God can never grant your party peace.God will shrink your party.you have turned the stupid people including myself that voted for apc to beggars. APC has remained silence over fuel crisis because they want the poor masses to get so used to the high price and when they remove subsidy it will not be felt. Apc wants to shrink nigerians and does not even want opposition which they equally played to get to this point. They have resorted to harrasments of individuals in opposition, nullifying elections and wasting tax payers money.apc wants a one party system which may never work with your sluggish, dictatorial and wicked nature. Apc wants to remove fuel subsidy Apc wants to increase electricity tariff Apc wants to introduce toll fares Apc wants to downsize the work force Apc has refused to allow legitimate business men do their business Apc has zeroed the nigerian economy Apc cancelled PRESSID, a presidential scheme introduced by gej where first class graduates from nigerian universities are subjected to test before awarded scholarships to read courses relevant to national development.infact, a lawmaker from the north called for its ban because the northerners couldnt pass the test that was so transparent. Chaaaaiiiiiiiiii nigeria is in trouble. |

Hbd mr president. Nigerians have never had it so terrible.buhari as the minister for petroleum you cannot even address the masses that voted you into power explaining the reaaons for the fuel scarcity. You may have a junior minister but you can make yourself a true servant leader by addressing nigerians. Buhari you know Christmas is just in few days time yet you want us as christians to suffer. Anybody can call me names I wish you whatever you wish me but I owe nobody any apology because nigeria has become so polarised that I am left with no other comment than this. Apc if you want to cunningly remove subsidy by paying lip service to this fuel scarcity then be prepared because what you did to pdp will be milder than what you will get this time around. Also mr president use today to ponder over your seven months as our president.have we moved forward or have we collapsed. Mr president I must let you know that the world is watching us and the score card is close to zero. As regards the fight against corruption good I have no problem with that but extend it to everyone . dokpesi's arrest I am afraid could be perceived at some quarters as suppression of the media which also helped you climb to power. Buhari as you add a year today , I say may Allah bless you but please re think and know whether you want to be remembered by progeny as the man who starved nigerians to death just to fight corruption that is being fought in most countries of the world without unleashing hardship on the people. Buhari I dont hate but this apc government I detest with passion Mr. PRESIDENT think about nigeria as you eat that cake and wine.think about nigerians who have been pushed into beggarly life. I repeat the hunger in nigeria I have never witnessed since I was born of course after the civil war because I heard about the war. |

Obiano I learnt dangotes trucks were burnt, are you replacing those I feel sad when individuals purposely allow chaos so as to know whether it will favour them.

Have you assured them that they are safe.so money as such could be available for this yet salaries are being owed Civil servants.obiano do not allow me to conclude that the burning of that mosque was in your favour and you have repaired it to buy favour from the abuja people and whip up sentiments .For the first time in that state, I am seeing a governor who is being run down by virtually every anambrarian I hvae interacted with. Obiano I learnt dangotes trucks were burnt, are you replacing those I feel sad when individuals purposely allow chaos so as to know whether it will favour them. A committee of inquiry would even let us know the true identities of the pepetrators of such act; punish them and still support the mosque.obiano knows he stole the mandate of better and more qualified candidates to be there. Obiano dont play with such national issues because you will only be exposing your amateur style of leadership which is more popular on Facebook and infact social media.. |

The OP and other Ekpa people can continue to deceive themselves
Facebook has over 1 billion users globally
Nigerian Facebook users are well over 20 million. You cannot put up 20 comments and tell us that it represents the feelings of Nigerians
It is even more ridiculous when 90% of those making the comments are from one section of the country.
Those people do not represent the majority of Nigerians. This is a fact.
The majority of Nigerians are still trying to take in the enormity of the corruption that took place under Jonathan.
The people complaining here are most likely Ipob youths who do not like Nigeria anyway. So your stupid analysis represent that of nigeria.ipob this and that.look who is from the majority. Was it not this same platform apc also used during elections and campaigns.just chill the voice here is that of the masses. Apc is a scam I can see some people saying we should pray for the president. So jona was what a chancellor that you could nt pray for.i aint praying for them anymore rather i pray against them now. Everybody keeps saying 16 years of pdp rule.analyse it critically and you will see the north also partook in the slaughter through yaradua.let me not talk of regimes in the past, shagari buhari babangida abacha abdulsalmi.tell me their region, North of course and you want to kill gej.nigeria is built on falsehood so lets call for a refrendum and face our lives because this forced marriage aint leading us anywhere. Apc is a failure, a scam and anti people |

http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/195113-worsening-economy-if-you-have-shame-you-will-shut-up-nigerian-government-replies-ekweremadu-pdp.html Lie mohammed I aint got time to read this crap because no truth comes from that mouth of yours.i am sick and tired of the blame tactics apc is using to deceive nigerians. If you cant get it right then you should all be in your villages afterall the youths who are presumed to be leaders of tomorrow are already frustrated. Apc is a wicked party and I bet you that nigerians cannot even wait for 2019.you inherited this and that yet you have continued to consolidate on most gejs policies.the only ones you introduced are all failing.apc to me is just a scam that needs to be jailed soon.ekweremadu has said the truth and so stop giving excuses afterall the buhari coup landed nigeria in its mess.he truncated democracy and therefore can never change.the change mantra you came with is all lies like lie mohammed will always lie.the economy is collapsing and would soon die so why still refer to only gejs administration, what of obj, yaradua, ibb, abacha, abdulsalam and buhari.probe all these and I promise you will never get any saint.i dare this government to try it.all we see is a party working towards a one party system, see your mess in kogi, look at bayelsa, you have gone to rivers, akwaibom, taraba yet we were told of the underaged voters in the north.APC should tell the world what happened to the kano chief returning officer.apc should probe that death or else we will assume they know how it all happened.i was among the nigerians apc deceived thinking the change was for our good , today my business is almost grounded because of stupid policies by a party which has resorted to fighting every perceived enemy rather than improve the welfare of its citizens . If I had an opportunity , firing squad is what you all deserve from a to z.no exception pdp, apc, etc.useless country breeding useless politicians. |

It's now crystal clear that the main aim of APC was to un-sit PDP & GEJ, Buhari whom has been campaigning for good 12years has no blueprint of governing this nation..
Before You Attack Me, please help me with an answer to this question....
My naija person who wants to attack you.you have said the truth. Buhari had no agenda and that was why he dodged the debate.it will be recalled that buhari came last at the only debate he participated in when he lost election.i remembered how he cried on one occasion about corruption thereby deceiving many nigerians to believe in him.buhari wants to see the business of ibo traders crippled and collapsed otherwise while should buhari brothers still be selling dollar and pounds instead of bank.buhari's fight is so selected and pdp has been vindicated of all those adverts that were put up during the campaign.ideally the mallams selling hard currency should not be so but he we are because they have direct access to cbn and na their brother dey rule.i have never seen such economic policy since I was born.i advise nigerians especially those who may want to be president after forty yearasvto keep reading so as to be abreast with good economic policies.soon the world would start asking if we still have a president.
Which Of The Campaign Promise(s) Have Been Accomplish??.. |
