PhenomenalMorgan:
PDP’s 16 years of waste will make things tough for me – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has said it will be difficult to turn things around as a result of 16 years of the Peoples Democratic Party’s, PDP, misrule.

Buhari stated this at a dinner the All Progressives Congress (APC) women and youth organised to celebrate his re-election on Saturday night.

Buhari will officially be inaugurated for his second term having been declared winner of 2019 presidential elections a week yesterday.

He did not fail to fault the 16-year rule of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which he said, “wasted the nation’s resources”, his regular remark during his first term.


According to him, the country witnessed “rampant infrastructure decay” in spite of the huge resources earned during the period.

He said nothing was achieved which has left much for him to do, adding that he has achieved more than the 16 years of the PDP.

According to him, “our achievements are being downplayed and not drummed up in the media.

“Show me one thing the PDP achieved in 16 years and I will point out 16 achievements of ours.”

How many explanations would a single statement have?

We heard earlier from some of his urchins on this forum that he was referring to "looters".

Why do they have to explain what he means all the time?

A govt driven with infrastructural development does not need running around to beg investors they will come ... these govt seems to be committed to infrastructures if they can keep it up investors will troop in like never before. dangote refinery holds hope
if buhari says " tough" he is only referring to looters & there beneficiaries..perhaps you belong to the later
You are wrong. Buhari said "the next four years will be tough". Where did he mention looters? How did you come about looters?
Buhari's infrastructure is financed on loan from Chinese Exim Bank. There are trains in North Korean and many eastern European countries mind you, why are investors not going there because of infrastructure?

Every major financial institution has predicted very tough times for the Nigerian economy in Buhari's next four years.
You people labelled them looters.

Buhari himself has come out to tell you with his own mouth, yet you are still finding a way to excuse him.
Everything he says you people must find explanation for; but you come around to urge people to accept poverty and misery.

Who did this to you?

You are not being realistic.

The stock market is driven by sentiments, all kind of sentiments.

If it is not driven by political sentiment how come the same Nigerian Stock Exchange gained significantly when Buhari was announced winner in 2015?

That was when they thought he was capable of doing what he said he would.

Everyone is now aware that he lacks capacity and very disappointed the election was stolen.

You people should stop this nonsense. There was no election in the north. The figures were simply allotted and ballot papers thumb printed to reflect the figures.

Opposition strongholds were militarized and votes were voided massively.

It is almost four years now that you guys were so sure he would be 'history', but he is still here.

You gave Saraki two weeks, then a month, then months on months, swore by Bourdillon, 'he is gone', you boasted, he is a betrayer, he killed his father, bla bla bla. But he is still here.

You said he won't survive the CCT trial, he is still here. You said the Offa robbery is the end, but Idris Ibrahim and Jimoh Moshood are gone, Saraki is still here.

What else is needed to show you that the guy is some kind of warrior. Well, today's election will show.

APC's best bet with all the 'remote control' (arrest and detention of candidates) is Kwara South senatorial district.

King Solomon 'the wise',

Does it not occur to you that what drives you is different from what drives the 'Christian minority' in Adamawa?

Do you not reason that they are not interested in popular opinion like you? Do you suppose they can be blackmailed into accepting your deception? The bombing of Numan and leaving behind Leah Sharibu should be ignored?

What some of you view as Christianity is not based on any conviction. That is why is it so easy to take 'wise' decisions because of temporary reprieve and financial inducements. You hardly give any thought to what happens when money finished.

If a 15 year old girl could stand her ground in the face of existential danger because of what she believes, do you suggest that the elders who taught her the faith should abandon her to her fate to be seen as being 'wise'?

Why would a pastor professor enter the community in the night like Nicodemus to cajole a 'minority' for votes if they are not important? Why can't he restrict himself to the 'majority'?
Politics › Re: 2019: Why APC Failed.... by porka: 9:03am On Feb 22, 2019
APC is the most incompetent, intolerant, divisive, vindictive organization in the entire world. Their obsession with "dealing" with every human being that opposes them while leaving the most important business of governance is a system that has never benefited anyone anywhere.

You can never see an APC member or sympathizer who doesn't concentrate on getting someone down at all cost. Their main objective of being in office is to 'deal' with opponents. It serves the purpose of covering up their incompetence.

From Buhari to El Rufai to Osinbajo to Lai Mohammed etc. Imagine a government devoting more than 3 years trying to get its own Senate President down at all cost. A president who is more concerned with getting back at his alleged traducer in 1980s by indefinite incarceration.

A governor of a state with millions of people to attend to will be so jobless by picking up social media comments as if his life depends on them. A vice president whose only reaction to negative criticism is to resurrect a concluded murder case against a critic.

When there was no one to 'deal' with anymore, they began to 'deal' with each other; since there's no programme to implement.

Did you read the article at all? Do you need help to understand it?

If you are having difficulty in understanding the fews words in that article how will be able to process complex concepts?

Do you want it translated in to your local dialect for clarity?

Look up the meaning of additional in the dictionary or have someone explain to you.

At the time the piece was written, the project cost was put at between $9b and $10b. The company had already raised $4.5b from consortium of banks. It's own commitment was $3.5b. They were looking for additional, $3.3b from both local and foreign financial institutions.

Can you now see that your 50/50 debt/equity ratio is too elementary for this type of transaction?

grandstar:
Nigeria's population growth rate is estimated at 2.6%. An economic growth rate of 2.38% does not even meet up with the population growth rate which simply means Nigerians are getting poorer.

From 1999- 2013 the economy grew by 6% annually which led to a doubling of the GDP during that time.

The country needs to grow by at least 7% to create enough jobs to cater to those entering newly into the labour force annually.
They have not even reached 2%

All they can manage at end of 4 years is 1.93%

You are just saying what you don't know. CBN said 60% of the Investment came from him, they only helped him with 40%. You don't even know anything about Economy, Someone would start a Project like that and he is not going to invest much of his Own Money? at least he must be ready to supply 50% of the Capital, so he supplied 60% of the Capital.
You are talking to the wrong person.

You people are so uninformed. Everything is CBN. All you people know is not more than the CBN, that's why you think everyone who is successful must have stolen money from the CBN while only rich people can eat rice.

In real life, things don't follow the 50/50 ratio they taught you in your 100 level. They probably taught you that to help you with the background. Things are more sophisticated than that out there.

The question is, are those infrastructures viable and useful to the economy? What would u rather do, borrow money from FHA to build your personal house or continue living in a rented apartment?
Shallow still

You are borrowing to finance other borrowings. You are borrowing from the international markets to finance domestic borrowing That's not building your own house. You are simply moving from one rented house to the other.

They have told you several times that the socalled infrastructure are inherited which require little or no financial outlay again.

Even that one is captured in the valuation.

His networth dropped because of the loss in the share price of his companies and the value of the naira to the dollar.

He didn't invest so much his own money, much of the investment is credit/loan.

Sai Baba. Despite earning 60% less than Jonathan due to fall in the price of crude oil from 110 dollars per barrel under Jonathan to a paltry 50 dollars under APC administration yet Buhari has done much more. Baba 2much projects, na next level we dey go jare. God bless Buhari.







Jonathan sank us into recession by looting us dry during the time of plentiful.

Despite Buhari administration earning 60% less yet he's come up with plenty projects such as

Our railways at itakpewarri, Lagos-ibadan, kaduna-abuja etc,

The production of low cost fertilizers,

Zik maoseleum

Baro inland port,

Rice mills,

Foreign reserve increase from #26b to #43b,

Construction of our express highways such as enuguonitsha, Lagos-ibadan etc.

Social policy schemes such as tradermoni, npower etc

And most especially, stabilizing us through this recession which happened because jonathan failed to save despite earning 60% more than Buhari coupled with the fall in the price of crude oil from #110 per barrel in 5 years under Jonathan to a paltry #50 per barrel under Buhari administration yet Buhari was able to keep us afloat while having many projects to his name thereby surprising Ngozi Iweala and Charles Soludo who predicted recession because jonathan failed to save during the time of plentiful.

fasterwell:
Before u ignorantly praise Jonathan for this project, let me lecture u briefly

Rail system in Nigeria was originally initiated and designed by OBJ but due to lack of funds he changed it from standard guage to narrow guage.

But when Yar'Adua took over he ordered the review of the project and insisted that it must be a standard guage. That review was concluded in late 2009 when he was sick.

When Jonathan took over in 2010, everything concerning the design was ready and all that was expected of him was to approve it and award it for work to commen e 9
This is false.

Stop 'educating' people on what you don't know.

Obasanjo's rail projects were all standard gauge. No single narrow gauge among them. The recently commissioned Kaduna-Abuja was one of the projects and it is a standard gauge.

The British already built the existing narrow gauge, why would Obasanjo be building another narrow gauge again 100 years after?

Yaradua's excuse was the funding. They were to partly debt finance (loan from China Exim Bank) and partly paid with crude oil. His motive remain unknown.

He said the arrangement did not follow the 'rule of law'. Many people applauded him then because of their rabid hatred for Obasanjo. The popular opinion then was that he was ''dealing" with Obasanjo, to the admiration of a lot people.

You used vanguard, Thisday, leadership and Daily trust newspaper as the sources of your information yet NO SINGLE LINK ON HOW TO SEE THIS NEWS FROM THOSE SOURCES, the only link you gave was from All African News (which look more like a blog than a reliable news paper), even in it, it was quoted the project suppose to commence in 2012 and completed in 2015 (36 months), yet NOTHING was done within the timeframe. If this story has anything to ponder on, I think it futher emphasised the level of corruption perpetrated under the last administration (ghost project). And for you, I think It's better you restrict yourself on the apolitical aspect of your auto interest/business rather than trying to put into it worthless political news from that jungle.

@AutoReportNG here is my little advice to you:
Please don't destroy your young brand with the shamelessness of the PDP. Even if you are a PDP sympathizer, kindly find a new handle for that.

In 10 days Atiku will be defeated and his IPOB supporters can go back to screaming Zoooooo all the way to Jupiter.
Even you too should be advised to desist from playing God and stop issuing threats based on a future event which outcome you do not know.

What will happen in 10 days' time is known only to God. As you may or may not know, playing God is very dangerous.

Democracy thriveson on free and open expression of opinions.

The guy has put up an information backed up with some newspapers publications. He only called for other people's views. You may either buttress or disprove his assertion with your own opinion.

Suppressing dissenting views and promoting fascism can be very tempting when you have temporary powers, but it won't be forever. Nothing is designed to last forever.

What you guys have been doing for four years is looking for people who don't share your opinion to threaten and 'destroy their brands' (you have even started threatening foreigners with 'body bags'), but everything that has a beginning must have an end.
