There is nothing said in that article that is complete falsehood.

Ministers are not in sync with Buhari and they fear him.

VP Osinbajo is doing his best but it's just too glaring that there is a scheme to sideline him

donphilopus:
Useless you. Anyone who believes this sh1t of a story would also believe that his/her grandmother is still a virgin. Before I even opened this thread, I already had 4 Ministers' names at heart and the reporters didn't disappoint.

Chris Ngige, Kayode Fayemi, Audu Ogbeh, Lai Mohammed, Hadi Sirika all don't have access to the Precidency? They ain't always allowed to see the President? Whenever they greet him, he doesn't answer them because he's deaf? SIGNAL should be dealt with for this malicious report.

I could remember Femi Adesina once told us that the President (Buhari) for the first time since 1999, met with the State House correspondents and even promised to always treat them well. He even mentioned some other jokes the President 'cracked' during the meeting which I have forgotten for the now.

If the PDP continues like this as an opposition, I'm sorry by 2018, they would have been useless as the 'P' in Psychology. Playing opposition of bitterness is all they know. Hadn't been I was chanced, I would have uploaded some pictures of the President laughing/smiling with his aides.

It is now audible to the deaf, visible to the blind, vocal to the dumb and perceivable to the anosmia that PDP has nothing to offer other than lies!

Beeman1:
Nonsense.

God bless PMB

God bless Ameachi

God bless naija.

Don't say nonsense.

That media pronouncement from the upper chamber of the National Assembly is damn serious.

Read the last line. Don't you see its an impeachment threat?

We need to be careful. GMB might break another record being the first impeached president of Nigeria.

Caseless:
Whenever this woman speaks, I get a shroud of hope around me.



The havard economist discobombulated us with her textbook approach to economic problems that were never effective for many years, now so many people think adeosun is like her , and have failed to read her write-ups and answers to questions.


Wailers, read , please!

Wait and see.

All these excitement because of theory! Na waaa.

Let's wait and see.

Praying for the best anyway.

Tufiakwa!

Alu! nso ani. That's what APC is down East here

Shame!

That's all I can say

Very creative.

Kudos to op!

I'm still laughing

Most Zombies are like 5 (but they will quickly deny).

So I give them 1 square

[size=4pt]its a lie o![/size]

[size=1pt]it's a lie o![/size]

Lie!

He didn't say that

Big lie! Buhari did not say that.

When?

Which other paper carried it? Even Vanguard did not carry the story.

It's only those that don't know him that will believe such. He feels too big to condescend to apologising to ordinary Nigerians -bloody civilians, when he already feels abd believes he's a messiah.

Dats Jona's train!

And he's posing as if he and his APC govt has contributed anything.

Dats Jona's legacy!

Shameless

They are grazing and eating expensive ornamental grassing used to decorate FCT and nobody says nothing.

Na waaaa

Realdeals:
Insightful analysis, we await the changes.

It is obvious Lalasticlala hates Kemi Adeosun, this is the third in series of her articles shared on Nairaland, none has grace the FP.

Nothing in the article is revolutionary or strategic ane u want Fp.

Can this administration mention one new initiative pls.

Everything is copy, paste and rename. E.g. YES which is an adulterated version of Youwin.

I don dey tire

INTROVERT:
Season what?

Season IV

Born to rule mentality

sdindan:
Abagworo Onye asi.

this is not the first abeg.

What about Ozisa newspaper from Catholic Archdiocese Of Owerri.

Do your research.

As a child in primary school, I read 'Anyawu' and 'Ogene' papers.

So 'Ikoro' cannot be the first

That gun in the picture is a dane gun.

It uses gun powder and not bullet.

Just a local hunters rifle, pls

These are hunters na

What proof that they are Boko haram? Where flag? Where gun pickup?

Pls, pls, stop killing the innocent

Panic mode!

The APC led govt of federal republic of Nigeria is now in panic mode.

The position of the President and his ministers are drifting apart. In between the Ministers, you here A here and Z there; total lack of coordination, but essentially, no concrete action to base issued statements.

While Lai Mohammed released that the entire economy had spiralled out of hand, the geriatric minister of agriculture offers that govt would stabilise price of rice in less than 15 days!

Just to ask, mr Minister of Agric, have your govt planted any new rice field since inauguration?

Two, given the rate of your Govt's denial of campaign promises, are you really serious you want Nigerians to take you serious this time and hold you accountable for its achievement?

I'm in independence layout right this moment and it is raining and windy. Stopped us from going for 9am service at Dunamis new artisan.

Bros, there's nowhere in Enugu Aquq rapha sells for N80. Go to their depot in artisan. Go to the one near Roban; that should be the closest to you, I think. Last time pure water was N80 was just about after xmas.

You transport yourself to new market from onuasat to onitsha south, new market to buy aqua rapha. That's suspicious you know. We buy yam sam place and stop dat "very cheap" talk b'cos it has added money. They will tell you they spend more on transport.

I'm on ground. Let's bet and meet at artisan 11am and I will snap with you and prove to you that things have gone up

greatiyk4u:
Thanks for ur reply,
Aqua rapha pure water is 80 at. Onitsha south part New market, their motor comes around every morning and that's where I buy..............
At akwata, tomatoe sales for 1500 per basket and onions is very very cheap, we buy "nwa opoko" abakiliki. Yam very cheap at court area around ministry of lands.

Like I said, I buy fuel at mega every friday or saturday at Mega and have never spent more than. 2hrs on queue, wch I use for the week,besides at least every once in a week, masters Energy, MRS, Conoil,Total,sells fuel at normal price.

At presidential road around onuasata we experience minimum of 15hrs power supply daily.

Stop the hatred and say the truth. I agree the economy is not in good shape but not as bad as portrayed

Has transporters increased far in Agbani road, abakpa, obiagun ugwuaji and other places in the town?

Prove me wrong

urbanmonk:
We are in trouble.

Meanwhile, notice that all on Nairaland are on this topic.

Why hasn't it made fp

When the Minister of Finance that should constitutionally hold the function of coordinating the economy wrote a long and windy verbose article that ended up saying nothing, except her desire to run her ministry (job of the perm sec), I knew we are in hot oil.

Bros,

Which side for Enugu be dat?

Garri N4,200 a bag is now N6,500. Rice is N14,000 yesterday at New market. Same for Ogbete. Mamadore veg oil, even kings dat used to be N1,500 is now N1,800. Aqua rapha (pure water) dat used to be N70 or N80 is now N150.

Fuel is N145 today, as I speak, for those that have. Many are shut. Line t Mega Naira triangle requires at least 2 continuous days of queue.

Bros, tell me which side and which market u det buy ya things cos even Afia 9 and Mami, wahala dey

greatiyk4u:
In Enugu where I stay, a bag of pure water is 80, I have never bought fuel more than 87Naira though I bring out like 2 hours weekends to queue up at the NNPC Mega stations
Food stuffs are extremely cheap here, tomatoes and onions,local rice,chicken, eggs, yam and fruits are at all time low prices in the market.
I enjoy a minimum of 15hrs steady power in my area here

Don't be deceived by the enemies of Nigeria, these facts are verifiable....the economy is not in good shape but surely not as bad as paint it online

Shallom

rottennaija:
Yes we do. But we didn't expect magic, we know it only gets worse when it's about to get better.

Mumu!

While you are there defending what you know nothing about, the Minister of propaganda has finally owned up... that the situation has gone out of their control!!!

Economy Gone Out Of Buhari’s Control, Says Lai Mohammed by Nicur: 5:18pm
The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Saturday lamented that the economic situation in the country has gone completely out of the control of government as the global economic meltdown is having a negative spiral effect on it.
