You guys did all these three times in the past and it all led to failure for Buhari. You are wasting your energy this time again.

Why create a new topic when you can dispute the facts on the existing topic?


And finally why did u guys abandon barcanista when he was been demolished by the truth.?

barcanista:
They came with insults and name calling. Thank you obiagelli for the thread. I am actually watching thm "enjoy" their much sorted for time, while I am working on a "pro-Jonathan" project.

The problem I have with some people is when they depend on editorials where reports from research works are available.

I have studied Buhari (in and out) before I made the comment and my popular quote "Buhari is too dented to be repackaged"

If all the efforts being wasted on trying to repackage Buhari are expended on Gov. Rabiu Kwankwaso, he will definitely be among the fastest consumer goods and a candidate to challenge incumbency.

I withdrew my sword on Buhari of recent until mid January - February 2015 when all the lies told to repackage Buhari will be exposed and people will see him as a fraud he is.

Buhari's government is
revered for its ability to keep the country afloat
by making progress through sheer economic
ingenuity even when it rejected IMF loan and
refused to adopt IMF conditionalities to devalue
the Naira.[17] His government is praised for its
gain in reducing inflation by refusing to
devalue the nation's currency, the Nigerian
Naira, curbing imports of needless goods,
curtailing oil theft and using counter trade
policy to barter seized illegally bunkered crude
oil for needful goods like machineries, enabling
it to export above its OPEC quota.....

He also moved to silence critics of his administration, passing decrees curbing press freedoms and allowing for opponents to be detained up to three months without formal charges.[10] He also banned strikes and lockouts by workers[10] and founded Nigeria's first secret police force, the National Security Organization.[11] His government sentenced popular musician and political critic Fela Kuti to ten years in prison on charges that Amnesty International denounced as fabricated and politically motivated;[12] Kuti was later pardoned and released by Buhari's successor.[13] In another high-profile incident that sparked a diplomatic incident with Britain, British officials found Umaru Dikko, Shehu Shagari's former transportation minister drugged in a crate marked for shipment to Lagos.[14]

According to the BBC, "Buhari's attempts to re-balance public finances by curbing imports led to many job losses and the closure of businesses."[15] These losses were accompanied by a rise in prices and a decline in living standards.[15] Some may hold contrary view to this assertion and call it mischievous though.

SAP from IMF was not a bad program but the useless military general IBB was totally insincere in implementing the program.

May God punish IBB for destroying our great country.

In addition:

In the face of the austerity measures, worsening economic conditions, and continued widespread corruption (this is questionable as

corruption was said to have been at its lowest ebb in the Buhari/Idiagbon regime) ,

Buhari was himself overthrown in a coup led by General Ibrahim Babangida and other members of the ruling Supreme Military Council (SMC) on August 27, 1985.[18]

Babangida brought many of Buhari's most vocal critics into his administration, including Fela Kuti's brother Olukoye Ransome-Kuti, a doctor who had led a strike against Buhari to protest declining health care services.[13]


Buhari was then detained in Benin City until 1988.[13]

Funny you, go and do a little research on austerity measures in Nigeria. Do disgrace yourself online.


In 1983, the austerity measures forced on the Shagari
regime by the International Monetary Fund and the
World Bank became a major campaign issue in the
elections that year.
