Oh, thank God for this thread. Many of your people argued that Jonathan lied.
You don go dabble into oil price sliding to $35 a barrel, come dey shout for help from barcanista. We go beat you here today because barcanista travelled.

We have showed his achievements in the other thread and you ran out here to say they are mediocre achievements.

Now, why will people queue to buy milk, sugar ..Is that fighting corruption/indiscipline?
Is queuing an achievement?

Sell your candidate. The only thing Buhari has told us is that he will give food to school children.

I laugh in Lunch box.

Edited.
OP, You are lucky today, help came from above ^^

OP you are insulting those of us who went through the horror of the Buhari evil regime in 1984 to 1985.

It is evil to want to re-write history just to sell a dummy politician.

No one in any country of the world like to spend days in queue trying to buy bread to feed his family. today the Syrians are queuing to buy bread due to the war in Syria, some are bombed while on the queue, It will be criminal to claim that the Syrians queuing for bread today like it.

Under Buhari not only did people queue for bread, we queued for cooking oil, we queued for washing soap, we queued for salt. many people collapsed and died from exhaustion in the queues. And this was a time when Nigeria was not at war.

And to worsen things soldiers were flogging people mercilessly on the queues, who likes to be flogged? why do you think Fela called Buhari a craze man in animal skin?

Your claim that profiteering was reduced shows your lack of understanding of economics, just like buhari, people go into business to make profit.
Using the military to break the locks of peoples shops and auctioning private goods at less than the cost price was not only wrong, it was evil. At the end of the day shops like Kingsway, Bata, Leventis have to close shop. People like you go to malls today to gloss around, the same malls Buhari killed by auctioning away their goods and rendering bankrupt in 1984.

Children who did not suffer through the economic stupidity of Buhari in 1984 and 1985 can vote for him, but people like us who saw the effects of his stupidity leading to scarcity of simple things like bread, sugar, oil, salt and soap and the closing of many factories will never vote for Buhari to come and repeat his economic stupidity.

It was so disheartening when I read an article here cheering GEJ for his Issueless speech Yesterday..It pains me so much when I see people that have passed more technical and rational reasoning process in life falling for this crap

On the story of queues for commodities he did not lie. The only problem is that he was criticising something that was good and most gullible Nigerians cheered him..

NPN the ruling party before Buhari regime had looted treasury, oil prices were also down to $35 a barrel due to the international manipulation and foreign exchange was scarce.

Buhari and Idiagbon were not going take foreign loans and devalue the currency. They were so sure that the problem of foreign exchange was a temporary one and could always be rode through that they rationed foreign exchange and all imported consumer goods had to be rationed. They also started partnering with local manufacturers Nestle, Cadburys, e.t.c to expand local manufacturing capacity..

Profiteering was reduced..

So Jonathan is right, we queued but unlike him we liked it because we knew our naira was just N2 to the $1 and that all the ''essential commodities" were soon to be made in Nigeria...

IBB came later and destroyed everything with introduction of SAP..Ever since then our Naira has been sinking

Prof Iyoha a renonwed Economist said Nigeria has received more than $600,000,000,000 in Oil revenue but nothing tangible to show for it...Just Imagine the Burj Khalifa in Dubai cost $1.2Billion imagine what Nigeria would have done with that fund if not corruption..

And some Goof ball here will say Buhari only Agenda is only corruption..The truth is that if Corruption can be curb we will achieve so much as a Nation..In china if a politician his caught stealing public fund his family member will buy the bullet that will be use to Kill him.!!

Its so annoying when I see people say GEJ till 2019 based on mediocre projects,there is no problem if you want to Vote for GEJ but please be objective when your doing so,never based your decision on ethnic and religion..You may be risking a decision that may affect our later generations...

Let any professor come here to disprove my narrative on how we enjoyed Buharinomics

barcanista:
Good morning brother Ngwakwe, I know how it feels to sell a bad product.

Justcash:


What you typed made no sense. You break into people's shops, flog a heck out of their lives, grab their products and give them away at a price that you prefer. What kinda KANGAROO economic principle are you trying to defend?

This has nothing to do with age. It is pure common sense. That coercive economic philosophy will ruin any economy as fast as the speed of sound.

Ngwakwe:


You are just like the Chairman, House Committee on Finance, Abdulmumin Jibrin, who has no real life working experience.

You have no slightest knowledge of the suicidal government you intend to defend except through googling and search engines.

barcanista:
If only you know that the Chairman, House Committee on Finance is not responsible for the planning and execution of economic policies. His job is to ensure that the Finance Ministry and MDAs implements budget as passed, ensure that the financial laws of the Land is adhered to strictly by relevant government agencies, he serves as a watchdog on behalf of the House to ensure that the government does not cheat the system in implementation of budget and its policies, he is to ensure that all laws that are hindering the progress of the financial sector is in place, amend relevant laws among many functions. In fact, he doesn't need to be an economist or a financial expert. All he needs is analytical thinking, intelligence and political will among many other attribute.



Ngwakwe, thank me later

A man who has not been able to add value to himself in 3 decades is promising to add value to Nigeria, how.

People really believe osinbajo will be another idiagbon, I laugh.

I'm kinda lost here.

Please someone one correct me.

I thought GMB's regime lasted from Dec 31, 1983 to Aug 27, 1985.

How is GEJ's suffering in 1983 GMB's fault?

[s]I am not talking of his duties and responsibilities in government rather was comparing his admirable educational qualifications with his inability to comprehend the N115 milion worth questions he contracted Enwegbara to compose.

It was a shame that he couldn't even cross examine the Finance Minister on any of the point raised on the said questions without asking for permission to google for what to say.

He has no real life experience just like you.[/s]

Came to a mechanic workshop to fix my brakes and do general servicing. I feel so happy seeing how involved and informed most hitherto indifferent Nigerians have become. These artisans are indeed gonna make their voices heard in the forthcoming elections.

Very interesting what a couple of guys (presumably working in the NASS under the office of the senate president) are saying regarding Jonathan's speech yesterday!!

Honestly, it would take the combined goodwill and support of "Witches and Wizards" the world over (not just Nigeria's) for Jonathan to win fair and square a single zone in this country!

This is good!!!
