I don't need to read white_washed packaging of Buhari. I witnessed the beginning and fall of his junta intrusion into Nigeria political space, merely to save his thieving a.ss from going to jail. After being found liable by Justice Ayo Irikefe and senator Saraki tribunals for missing $2.8 billion us dollars in 1978. As a thief he is, he struck in the wee hours of the night of new year eve. And stole the highest office in the land with guns. Buhari is an arm_robber. 5 Likes |

Seun:Most of u making comments here were not born when Buhari started his transformation in the 80's,and will most times quote the distorted stories. I was in existence when Buhari came to power and I can tell you that public sanity which I exhibit till date was learned from W.A.I.(War Against Indicipline)Up till date I find it hard to throw trash out the car or on the road,I find it hard to talk loudly in a public bus or even to engage in malpractice of any kind because of the short time Buhari led this great Nation. Suffice to say,only corrupt people should be afraid of a Buhari led government because he will put the necessary amenities in place,but the greedy will try to steal more. I will never fear a Buhari led government because I am an upright man,though I may give up smoking weed,I think its worth the sacrifice for a better tomorrow. 3 Likes |

U re entitle 2 ur opinion. But least u 4get easily,the economic measures of GMB were interupted by his successor. These measures were best for the challenges on ground then.Nigerians we need to try some other persons as it is now if we love our unborn generation.GMB might not be the best but our only option. |

Pedagogue: Buhari had no track record of Performance, his honesty was built in the Media 1. The exchange rate was 76k to $1 when he took over, and was 89k to $1 when he left( 17% depreciation under 20 months) 2. The hospital were described as death boxes during his regime such that even if it was open, people will be dying there. The doctors were arrested and thrown to prison when they protested 3. The universities and Polytechnics were not only locked for along time, ASUU was proscribed. he stopped university feeding and he is now promising primary school feeding. NANS was proscribed and its leaders jailed. 4. International reputation was worse then 5. Billion took flight in your APC minds. The of $ 20 B talking point has been cut off. Goes to show that the other accusations and monies brandied as missing are all figment of your imaginations. Goodluck has plugged holes. IPPIS has blocked ghostworkers 6. Many People's businesses closed down. 7. He forced people to sell at ridiculous low price far below the cost price in the name of price control 8. He broke into shops of people and old off their goods at ridiculously low prices 9. His voodoo economics blocked raw materials importations, industries died, jobs were lost, poverty was rife 10. He was the first president to export crude to be refined outside for subsequent importation into the country 11. he has nothing to show for his 20 months in governance 12. He sacked 30, 000 soldiers to cut cost 13. he sacked government workers to cut cost 14. He was clueless 15. N25B was stolen under him as PTF chairman. Obasanjo confirmed it 16. He used his relatives company to execute PTF projects aand acceded all powers to the company sidelining the PTF board 17. $2.8 B was stolen from NNPC under him when the naira was less than 55k to $1 Remember, 20 months as a military dictator, is longer than 48 months in civilian dictatorship - no house to approve project - no senate to approve appointments - no legislature to debate bills - no unfriendly house to sit PIB - his words were laws as soon as they exited his lips - naira was far superior to the dollar even if it was not supposed to be Say no to backwardness GEJ till 2019 GEJ till Buhari shows his certificate GEJ till Buhari can solve questions in Algebra beopened, africanqueen111 Louislewis, Juliaann, agabai23, sleekp1, ceo4eva, gunuvi, Mogidi, VICTORCIZA, Truckpusher, aljharem, ola6, customized13 Biafranqueen, tomakint,iamodenigbo1, gramci, stebell, meforyou1, datolee, ichidodo, iconize, aljharem, Truckpusher, Phockphockman, Juliaan, brokenTV, aryzgreat, shizzle11, chukwudi44, longeria, Idumuose, Papabrowne, taharqa, LeOstrich, mogidi, Descartes, collynzo9, pointB, Sincere9gerian, arysexy asadike,ogologodimkpa,nwafuluozoh,customized13,sincerenigerian BlackTechnology, anonimi, PhockPhockMan, KwoiZabo, nigerianvenom, ichidodo, biafranqueen, iamodenigbo, firefire, Descartes, Mogidi, Tomakint, Idumuose, atlwireles, Nigerianvenom, chukwudi44, priscaoge, tonte, Sunnybobo3, truckpusher, theassassin, jujuboy, jesusiscoming, Brownlord, Mogidi, anonimi, noblezone, tit, ishiamu, firefire, blacktechnology, datolee, Billyonaire, taharqa, ujoinme, uchidodo, publisher, gramci, Longeria, jmaine 12 Likes 4 Shares |

Have you heard that, GEJ is already packing his belongings from Aso Rock? Professor Wole Soyinka "I will not vote and I will not encourage anyone to vote for the continuation of this government, simply because your colleagues numbering over 200 were kidnapped,” he said. The playwright, who last December described the Jonathan administration as being worse than Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar, stated the President’s inability to locate and free the abducted girls represented leadership failure. He noted that shortly after the girls were kidnapped, Jonathan failed to address the situation and went about as if nothing had happened. Soyinka said it was, therefore, outrageous for anyone to say he was supporting the re-election of Jonathan. He added,“It took the Jonathan government 10 days to even accept that the Chibok girls were missing. After that dereliction of duty; after that failure of leadership, after that betrayal of our future, for anyone to think or to put words in my mouth suggesting that I will vote or encourage anyone to vote for this regime is a travesty of intelligence.” Speaking on the theme, “The Road to Sambisa”, the literary icon stressed Jonathan had not only betrayed children, he had failed as a leader. “There has been a failure of leadership. Our children whom you represent today have been betrayed,” he said. http://www.punchng.com/news/jonathan-doesnt-deserve-re-election-soyinka/ A word to the wise is sufficient. Please vote wisely, vote for the future of your children , vote wisely |

danies1941: You need to read what Seun posted again, this time read it slowly and fully. It contains external perspective of the disastrous Buhari regime. You may be alive during Buhari's regime but it is very clear from what you have written that you were too young at the time to even know what was happening. Asking why Nigerians should starve in the midst of good climatic conditions puts you as someone who is and has been isolated from the reality of what Nigerians have endured during the onslaught of Buhari. Why do you think Nigerians queued for days to be able to get bread, sugar, rice, vegetable oil, salt and soap. Do people queue for days to buy basic necessities if there is no scarcity of such goods? Or are you going to claim that Nigerians were not queuing for days to buy those things as if we were in a war ravaged country? Buhari grossly lack the competence required to solve the economic problems of a third world country like Nigeria, his performance in the 80's and the fact that he has not even seen the need to improve himself in the last 30 yrs confirms that we should be looking for someone much better than Buhari 1 Like |

GENERAL MUHAMMADU BUHARI UNMASKED!!! 1. He was the only Head-of-State, apart from Major-General Aguiyi Ironsi, that never promoted himself to the position of General in Nigeria Army while he was in power.(That's integrity) 2. He has zero tolerance for corruption. 3. He launched the war against indiscipline and Environmental sanitation, a legacy that is still with us till this day. 4. He paid up all our debt during his regime. 5. During his regime inflation rate came down from 23% to 5%. 6. During his regime,Naira was so strong that N1 was equal to $2 and £1was equal to N2. 7.As the HOS he stood firm against world powers when they were trying to meddle in Nigerian affairs, because they pressurize him to borrow money from IMF/World bank in other to devalue the Naira and make it worthless. 8. Drug trafficking incidences was very low because he actually dealt with drug dealers and drug peddlers because he believes they are tarnishing Nigerias image abroad. many nations with similar conviction also copied his mode of punishment to drug peddlers and till today drug peddlers are executed in countries like Thailand,Vietnam,Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore to mention a few. 9. As a Petroleum Minister and General Manager of NNPC under Obasanjo between 1976-1979, he built the only 3 refineries we have in Nigeria today.He constructed 20 oil depot throughout Nigeria and laid 3200km of oil pipelines. 10. As the chairman of PTF under late General Sani Abacha. He managed the PTF with transperancy by publishing the annual report promptly. 11. He used the excess crude oil given to PTF to construct road all across Nigeria that it was even said that he constructed and rehabilitated more roads than the Federal Government itself. 12. The PTF under him also supplies textbooks, notebooks, Buses to tertiary institution, drugs was supplied to hospitals He also rehabilitated our mass transit system supplying public buses all over the country. 13. He controls his home as a good father and head of the home. His wife was never found causing trouble or dabbling into state matters. 14. He was the one that discovered late Prof. Dora Akunyili and he was the one that suggested her name to the authorities before she was given the DG of NAFDAC. 15. As Head-of-State, 66% of his governors and ministers then were christians, though he and his deputy, Tunde Idiagbon, are practising muslim. 16. He is the only Nigerian leader, serving or former, that doesn't have any foreign account, or house or landed property in Lagos or Abuja and no asset abroad. He has just two houses- located in Kaduna (built by himself) and Daura (inherited from his father). 17. As PTF chairman, he refused to take salary or allowances because he was already on pension as a former Head of State. 18. He is the only former Head of State that collects only 10% of the acrue N23m paid monthly to former leaders. Little wonder he has to obtain bank loan to purchase the APC presidential nomination form (Hon. Dino Melaye confirmed from the ministry of finance that GMB collects just 10 percent of his monthly entitlement). 19. He has no oil rig, not even a petrol station as a former HOS and PTF chairman, petroleum minister/NNPC GMD. 20. He has never been convicted of any crime though many panels were setup to discredit him but none have a shred of proof to indict him 21. As the HOS, he flew to Maiduguri to command and motivate the GOC and the army in the battle to crush insurgents, and in 2 weeks, a terrorist sect from Chad by the name Maitasine was crushed. He didn't negotiate with terrorist or think it was a politically motivated invasion. He didnt handle them with kid gloves but was decisive with them. 22. During his regime there was no religious or tribal violence. 23.During his regime, he scrappled the idea of Christians workers and soldiers working on sundays . 24. Because of his abhorrence for corruption and uprightness, he is popular called 'mai gaskiya' (the man who says the truth ) by the Hausa masses. 2 Likes |
