Did who complain?

MizMyColi:


Thank you, Truckpusher for the compliment, I appreciate.

But please, I do not co-sign the insult on the person of the original poster.
He has shown some civility, let's accord him same

BrainnewsNg:


Ask my OP! Please!!

Or better still! GOOGLE!!!!!!!

fulanimafia:


You're not being objective here. Can you deny the significance of a robust diplomatic relation with such an influential country as the U.S? President Obama invited PMB to the white house shortly after he was sworn in, so as to mend fences for our mutual benefit, after the horrible relationship we had under the incompetent Jonathan that ended up eyeing Amanpour in between lies instead of answering basic questions on power.

As for hatching eggs prematurely, you will agree that the hen has to be pregnant first. The formation of robust policies are dependent on a firm and informed foundation which is the point you seem unable to comprehend.

1. Honoring an Invitation has no effect on Nigerians.

2. For real? How many business deal did Buhari sign in US? How many MoUs did he initiate or sign? Which commitment did he secure (not jiust verbal commitment)? Which policy was discussed or formulated?

3. What kind of diplomatic tie did he strengthen? Is it not embarrassing that Obama left his "visitor" in the US to a Secretary of State (Foreign Minister) and not even his VP? Is that not embarassing?


OP stop embarrassing Buhari... Buhari went to the U§A to embarass Nigerians and also wasted tax payers money.

naijaking1:
# 5 gains of PMB US visit are:
1. Returning home with the much needed American arms to fight and eliminate Boko Haram
2. Acquiring the technological inovation to wipe out terrorism from NE and SS regions of Nigeria
3. Settling the gay rights issues with Obama
4. Returning home with a lorry load of US investments long denied previous administrations
5. Making Obama agree to visit Nigeria on his African trip next week.

Truckpusher:
But here you have some folks defending what can only be classified as a national embarrassment by all measurements available to judge such a Presidential visit by Africa's most populous nation's President.
Damn ! I'm beginning to understand why we shouldn't be one with these nomads in the first place......may God forgive Azikiwe and Awolowo even as the Yorubas are still clinging unto these cows in human skin.

MizMyColi:


1. The word objective has a relative definition on Nairaland, you're really not in the best position to assert my objectivity or not.

2. My contribution to your topic is based on my perception of America as an entity, in relation to Nigeria.

3. You think of Jonathan as incompetent, but I daresay, that while his presidency may have died, his manhood lives on.
What power and what lies are you on about?
These days, I almost literally have to call NEPA (pun intended) to demand that they stop embarrassing me with power supply.
It is funny how you see nothing good in one of Nigeria's finest and yet expect me to close my eyes to the gaffes of this administration.

4. It is unwise for a pregnant animal or human to go about, gallivanting and jubilating about their pregnancy.
The logical thing to do is to quietly nurture the conceived to a point of delivery and then all heavens can break loose at the news of its delivery, don't you think?

Words on a marble .

Truckpusher:
Funny dude , you do really have a way to mock people in the most hilarious manner.
Honestly , I wouldn't make this kind of thread against BUHARI - they are simply mocking him.

barcanista:
It was unfortunate that Buhari had nothing to discuss with Obama. Obama couldn't tolerate staying with someone with no clear-cut developmental plan for his country. Damñ, someone that doesn't even know his party name. He had to leave him for a more important business

fulanimafia:

It affects us because Nigerian-US relations were non-existent under the previous administration, to the point where our current Ambassador was shunned by the U.S authorities because of his past antagonistic stance under Jonathan
You cannot pretend having a poor diplomatic relationship with the U.S does not have adverse effects on any country.

He secured their commitment to explore investment in all sectors of the economy, particularly non-oil, while assuring them of the continuation of the privatization programme BUT under an improved moral architecture. In light of this, PMB promised to review Visa regulations to encourage the investors.

I can see the wailers have turned this thread into their nocturnal coven, nothing of reason apart from the perpetual wailing and grief from the defeat of Jonathan and utter powerlessness in the face of PMB's daring decisions.

Keep wailing

naijaking1:


You just don't understand how important it was for PMB to be 'recieved at Blair House-the first Nigerian leader to be so recieved'
After that you saw the naira appreciated to almost the same level as the dollar, corruption ended in naija, and all of a sudden we're almost as developed as America!!!

Truckpusher:
In as much as I never liked it that an old illiterate fellow is running things in this country in this 21st century I still maintain that Obama's shabby treatment of our representative is a slap on the entire black race but again we have some people from a section of this country that believes that power must be within their reach even when they've got nothing to offer.
What is the essence of asking for a man for help when you're already aware that he's got a huge price for it that you're not willing to pay? BUHARI is a disappointment as an ex head of state but again an old illiterate man won't just see it coming .
Nigerians vote wisely , this diplomatic blunder will haunt us for a long time to come especially those folks from the North.......You won't see it now but just wait until one bomb explodes near you.

barcanista:

So what exactly did he achieve? Which Bilateral agreement was signed to strengthen US-Nigeria relationship? Pls stop giving irrelevant links that has nothing to do with Buhari's visit


Which commitment did he secure? How many MoUs was signed? Which US company has agreed to come? How many investors gave him verbal commitment? Be specific... Stop telling me Buhari promise to give visa or irrelevant links. Straight to the point

You have been parroting this lie to your mindless drones all day.

President Obama left the White House for Kenya on Thursday evening at exactly 8:05pm local time (U.S)
https://www.whitehouse.gov/schedule/complete

President Buhari left the Joint Base Andrews Airport on Wednesday, before Obama left.
http://www.naij.com/495580-president-buhari-leaves-usa.html

As the wailer-in-chief, you owe a duty of responsibility to your minions to inform them of facts so they do not keep ridiculing themselves all day.

MizMyColi:



1. How does it concern us. How does it affect us?

2 & 3. Before you call it an achievement, why don't you wait to see it's workability?

In a sane clime, when an important visitor calls, especially from a very far distance, the honourable thing to do is to escort them when they are leaving, to the bus park at least.

OP, how does this change the fact that a whole President Muhammad Buhari was abandoned by Obama for Kenya? Kenya?!


Isn't that an insult on our sensibilities, is he trying to say that Buhari is not important in the grand scheme of things?
Is it because he mistakenly called All Progressives Congress; ALL NIGERIAN PEOPLE'S CONGRESS? Or Because he openly spoke against gayism (as reported in the news)? Someone should clear my mire here. I don't get it
Tbh, it is unacceptable.

After all ,the ethno religious politics is getting to a point that you can sell your soul to the devil just for self emancipation.

barcanista:

Hahaha Abeg o....@gay movement! On a serious note, Buhari travelled to the USA without a Finance Minister (to help talk to investors), without a foreign affairs minister (to help with strengthening diplomatic ties), without the Petroleum minister (to help bring investors into the sector), without Businessmen (that will also assist in bringing some partners here). He went there on his own with some clueless politicians. Yet he expected Obama to take him serious.

naijaking1:


Someone was just blowing hot about why the ambassador was not allowed by the US authorities to come near; a smart new government would have believed their own countryman, fellow naija, even if from a different party than trust the white house over your own countries' official representative.
The ambassador and his staff know more about American a million times better than PMB and his touring group, they missed an opportunity to impress by not using these staff at their service, thereby disrespecting their own ambassador!
More over, PMB went to the whitehouse with little knowldge of history: from Tafawa Balew's visit to Gowon's rejection of invitation to the whitehouse, PMB missed the mark--a lesson he has learned once they refused to sell him, not dash him arm to fight criminal terrorists in his own country.
In better developed countries, that visit would have been cordinated by career civil servants in the foreign affairs service who understand basic English, and the diplomatic meanings.

fulanimafia:


You can only fool the uninitiated with your skirting around facts. The 'irrelevant' links contain facts that blow your legendary lies into smithereens.

Only those with incurable apathy for sanity would expect an invitation to invest to result in signed MOU's on the same day. Do you even know what an MOU is? I seriously doubt that you are aware of the rudiments of international investment.

Disprove the gains and stop skirting around facts. Or can you deny that President Buhari left the U.S before Obama as you have been parroting?

sameer1212:
If that is your wish, u will be disappointed Nonsense.

naijaking1:


Good point. That's all!
Why is everybody sad, because Obama pushed PMB down to Kerry? Because he did not come with his own foreign minister.
Is this too hard to understand

barcanista:
What did he even say when he was with Kerry? He was busy "Thanking him" "Thanking Americans" and even went on to "thank technology". Smh
