joseph1832:
OP. Kindly remove number one. I believe the number one on that list is mandated by the constitution and its written in black and white in the constitution.

One can not say what he is mandated to do falls under campaign promises....

Are you suggesting he didn't know what the constitution says concerning Asset declaration before he used it in his campaigns?

Thanks

AnyibestDede:
If he achieves 5% of these his promises, 9ja ll be a better place

Am telling you !

Any individual can blv what he/she wants, i voted buhari based on 3 major promises i heard from him. 1. Security 2. Corruption and 3. Jobs.

Emeskhalifa:
Atleast him don dey solve dem na.
Alot of ppl re givin testimonies bou the sudden improvment in the electricity already

So, how many KW has his administration added to the National Grid?

I believe in giving ppl benefit of doubt....giving them time to perform before criticising.

But also the Igbos say that, na okuku ga-abu oke na-ebido n'eju.
A person's performance can be foreseen from his initial steps. Buhari's initial steps were full of excuses and disappointing, but let us give him a long rope. He can either save himself with it or kill himself.


My tutorial for the week is out...Igbo ga-adiririri!

The 1st Igbo language blog is out, it is fun and insightful. Visit, comment, share and criticize.www.odeniigbo..com

We are going to hold him and the party responsible for every of these promises he made
May God guide PMB to realise all of them
God bless Nigeria
God bless FGN

81 campaign lies of buhari

Mogidi:
Buhari is not going to do 2% of what he promised, we saw the lies then, its only now become black and white to the gullible.

How can a reasonable someone wish a 30day old administration a failure? As God liveth, I won't regret voting for this administration the same way I regretted voting for Jonathan. In fact, the worst of this administration will be better than the best of past administration.

Nigeria will be great again: God bless Nigeria.

i voted for buhari...nd i knw dia was no way he could fulfill all those promises nd if given the oppurtunity i wud vote fr him again...it is what we call politics nd he is still a bettr choice than the clueless one that has plunged our country into a financial and security mess.....haters shud go nd die

can he still remember these things?
i doubt. thank God for social media.
we keep reminding him.

UncleJudax:
Are you suggesting he didn't know what the constitution says concerning Asset declaration before he used it in his campaigns?

Am saying he's fully aware what the constitution says, he only reiterate it just to show his willingness to obey the constitution as other past presidents have shown they have absolutely no regard for the constitution.

docphresh:
Seemingly insurmountable and unachievable goals...

he won't achieve all in four years,but if u mean he won't achieve none truout his regime,then na only ur house go experience am

Comeooo, I didn't see N1=$1. & free N5k. to unemployed, or did you edit the list again?
meanwhile do you guys think PMB cares a dine or even rememver this Zimbabwen list of illegal promises

one chance, four years of regrets for Nigerians

joseph1832:

UncleJudax:

My argument is weak? Thats a matter of perspective. And of course anybody can say anything, it only takes somebody to prove what he says.

Yea "talk is cheap" but when that talk yields results by virtue of action its still cheap right?.

if you are waiting to check any of those things when done ehn,, you go old pass olumo rock

All this TAN sef, na una go taya.

SLIDEwaxie:
