Buhari’s 100 Days Of Incompetence And Abject Failure, By Femi Aribisala by Technocracy: 7:08pm On Sep 08, 2015
After the 2015 election, I predicted on Twitter that when critical decisions are to be taken, Yemi Osinbajo, the token Southerner in Aso Rock, would be sent to go and buy “guguru and epa.” This has proved prescient. The vice-president was barred from attending a national security briefing on the grounds that he did not have security clearance. But who can have more clearance than a man elected by the people? How did Buhari himself get his? On August 30th, 2015, the vice-president was again publicly embarrassed when armed men shut down the Aso Rock Chapel, preventing him from worshipping there. After shouting myself hoarse, warning Nigerians not to elect Buhari as president, I decided to keep quiet and watch things unfold from the sidelines. Fela said about Buhari’s first-coming: “The people wey no sabi dey jubilate, the people wey sabi dey shake their head.” It is now 100 days since Buhari became president and many of my worst fears have been confirmed. President Buhari is a ticking time-bomb that might precipitate the disintegration of Nigeria! Presidential dictatorship In the middle of a national economic crisis, the president has been comatose. He made himself the Sole Administrator of Nigeria; a role not envisaged by the Constitution. These 100 days, Buhari has been the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Petroleum, as well as the Attorney- General. He has been the Minister of Education, even though we are yet to see his school-leaving certificate. He alone has been the minister in all the ministries of the federal government. As a result, the country has ground to a halt. There has been no national direction, no economic policy; no government. Only bombastic anti-corruption rhetoric. Not surprisingly, the economy has gone from bad to worse. Official reports from the National Bureau of Statistics indicate that while like Nero, Buhari fiddles as Nigeria burns, our GDP has plummeted to 2.35 percent; a 40 percent decline under Buhari. Job- creation has dropped by 69 percent. The CBN, in its Monetary Policy Committee Report of August 2015, complained that: “lack of fiscal directives is behind (Nigeria’s) current economic woes.” This is a big indictment of the administration. The coming of Buhari has brought about stagnation in domestic and foreign direct investments. The stock market has nose-dived, with investors scared away due to uncertainties arising from the government’s indecisiveness in the face of national economic adversity. One-chance presidency It is now clear that Buhari obtained votes from Nigerians during the election through false pretences. Contrary to his highfalutin campaign promises, he has not stabilised the international price of oil. Instead, it has fallen drastically from $60 to $40. Buhari has not made the naira equal to the dollar. As a matter of fact, it has depreciated considerably under his short watch. He has not used his vaunted military experience to defeat Boko Haram. On the contrary, the insurgency has become far more deadly, with over 1,000 innocent Nigerians killed within just three months. Buhari’s promised free meals for school-children, allowances for discharged Youth Corpers, and 5,000 naira monthly allowance for indigent Nigerians have all turned out to be poppycock. He has not even mentioned the coal industry in Enugu, how much more made any moves to revive it. His boast to APC governors that he will recover billions of dollars of stolen funds within three months has proved to be hogwash. With the election over, he quickly backtracked on Chibok, saying: “We do not know if the Chibok girls can be rescued.” In my years as a public policy analyst, I have never seen a government anywhere spend its vital first 100 days doing absolutely nothing like this one. In defence of the president’s ineptitude, Lai Mohammed said in a recent interview that: “Buhari never promised he was going to do anything in 100 days, that’s the honest truth.” This admission by the mouthpiece of the APC confirms conclusively that President Buhari has wasted 100 days of Nigerian lives. Stolen achievements Such improvements as are noticeable are legacies of the Jonathan administration. It is the height of deception that the do-nothing Buhari government has been trying to take credit for them. Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) Chairman, Sam Amadi, stressed that the recent improvements in power supply are the result of the efforts made by the Jonathan administration. That should put paid to bogus attempts to attribute them to the effects of Buhari’s “body language.” Neither does “body language” bring about a turnaround maintenance of our refineries. The credit for this goes to “clueless” Jonathan, and not to “Baba Go-Slow.” If we are now celebrating the end of polio in Nigeria, it has nothing to do with Buhari, and everything to do with Jonathan. If we are indeed well on our way to self-sufficiency in rice production, it is because of the activities of Jonathan, and not because of the inactivity of Buhari. In three months, the Buhari administration has added nothing to past achievements. On the contrary, it seems inclined to bring things to a standstill. Media blackmail Instead of providing effective leadership, Buhari has opted for a campaign of calumny against the Jonathan administration. Day-in, day-out, we are regaled with outrageous declarations without substantiation about how bad the previous government was, and by how much it ran down the economy. Only the gullible would fail to realise this is just a pathetic attempt to divert attention from the incompetence of the Buhari government. Buhari claims he inherited an empty treasury. Nevertheless, he found over $30 billion in our foreign reserves. He says: “Jonathan’s ministers stole 150 billion dollars,” without telling us where he got this outlandish figure from. We are told one million barrels of oil were stolen every day under Jonathan, without any shred of evidence to back this up. Buhari even went on record to claim Jonathan diverted $700 million from the $1.1 billion Chinese loan for the Lagos/Kano rail project. But the evidence shows the loan was for three different projects, with only $400 million earmarked for Lagos/Kano rail. Governor Oshiomhole of Edo State says a senior official of the Obama administration revealed that a Jonathan minister stole $6 billion dollars, no less. This has been denied by the Americans. He claims a consultancy fee of 140 billion naira was paid for the Second Niger Bridge project. However, the Bureau of Public Procurement says the total cost of the bridge is 108 billion naira. Oshiomhole should face his State and desist from further cheap newspaper blackmails. Someone needs to remind the APC that election campaigns are over. Once bitten, Nigerians are now twice shy. APC won by manipulating the media. It cannot expect to rule using the same trickery. Anti-corruption media distractions Buhari’s so-called fight against corruption has already become a farce. The first salvo was to lock up former Jigawa State governor and prospective 2019 PDP presidential candidate, Sule Lamido and his two sons in jail with extreme prejudice. Then when Saraki rocked the boat by steamrolling himself to the Senate presidency without APC endorsement, his wife was peremptorily invited for lunch by the EFCC. The Senate has now retaliated by putting the EFCC Chairman himself on trial on allegation he stole trillions of recovered naira. The truth of the matter is that any anti-corruption probe is likely to open up a can of worms. Buhari is surrounded by corrupt politicians. Indeed, the APC is so corrupt, the president has not been able to find 36 “clean” ministers among his colleagues in over 100 days. That is some kind of a negative record. After claiming he did not have the 27.5 million naira required for the APC presidential nomination papers and had to borrow it, Buhari now claims he has 30 million naira sitting pretty in his bank account. How does he account for this discrepancy? Some of us are also wondering where he got all the money used to finance his expensive election campaign. If the president wants to probe, he should go right ahead and do so. However, the current shenanigans of trying people in the media, and declaring everybody PDP guilty without trial, only attests to the lack of sincerity. APC governors, including Amaechi and Kwankwaso, are also accused of corruption. Fashola of Lagos is alleged to have spent 78 million naira setting up a personal website. These are the president’s political buddies. We are waiting to see if his famous probe will also reach them. Fighting corruption on the pages of newspapers cannot surely be the only preoccupation of a government. One trenchant observer said: “Probing is not governance neither is body language a substitute for economic policy.” Northern agenda With 100 days in office, Buhari’s ethnic chauvinism is no longer hidden. We have now discovered that what he meant to say on his inauguration is: “I belong to every Northerner, and I belong to no Southerner.” The president went on official trip to the U.S. without an economic agenda, but with 29 Northerners and only four Southerners. While there, he declared that: “The constituents (that) gave me 97 percent cannot in all honesty be treated on some issues with constituencies that gave me five percent.” We now understand his thinking. Fulani herdsmen continue to kill innocent farmers while Buhari sees no evil and hears no evil; after all, he called them “my people” to Lam Adesina of Oyo State. Of the 32 critical appointments he has made so far, 27 are from his native North and only five from the South. Not a single appointment from the South-East. When queried about this blatant discrepancy, Femi Adesina from the South, and not Garba Shehu from the North, was craftily trotted out. Tongue-in-cheek, we are told the appointments were made strictly on merit. But since when did the North acquire a monopoly of merit in Nigeria? How can the region with regularly low cut-off JAMB scores suddenly become the citadel of the most meritorious public servants in the country? Do-nothing government The Buhari administration is shaping out to be the most incompetent and inconsequential in the history of Nigeria. It is full of sound and fury signifying nothing. What exactly was the point of electing a “Mr. Do-Nothing” as president of a country of 170 million people? After 100 days, it should now be abundantly clear that Buhari is not qualified to be president of 21st century Nigeria. The president has neither agenda nor direction. His cardinal objective is apparently the prosecution of Northern hegemony. The APC desperately needs to organise an intervention, before Buhari drives the country into the ditch. How can an ethnic champion be expected to lead Nigeria into the future? It is time to admit it. Electing Buhari as president was a big national blunder.

Osibanjo hasn't come out or complained about anything yet and our 'predictive' Aribisala is already claiming to be that powerful seer.
When APC made their promises I am sure they never said they will fulfill all in 100 days.

Where was Aribisala when the nation collapsed in the previous administration which we are all still feeling the impact till this day? There is always a flip side and what is on the other side outweighs Aribisala's points which are arguable though especially concerning the Vee Pee

I am liking this Femi guy the more... It seems He and Fayose are the true sophisticated south westerners, they don't reason (Obsequiousness and servitude mentality) like the average ones. #Buhari's newphilosophy is "I belong to northerners and I do not belong to southerners" --Femi 2015.

The nation collapsed you say? Your lots have blatantly refused to give credit to the previous administration, even when its glaringly obvious that nigeria was on a path to greatness under the previous administration. While Jonathan was working with the economic team, boosting agricultural production, working a roadmap to sufficient power generation and boosting direct foreign investment in the country, your likes were peddling falsehood, propaganda and messages of hate on social media. Jonathan is out of office now, and the onus is on buhari to consolidate on his achievement, but what have we seen so far? A ridiculous celebration of mediocrity by the ruling party. It wont take me by surprise if the ruling party celebrate buharis ministerial list, thats if he ever comes up with one. And mind you femi aribisala is a nigerian, he is not taking panadol for anyones headache m nigeria belongs to us all

Presidential dictatorship
In the middle of a national economic crisis, the

Buhari has been the Minister of Finance, the
Minister of Petroleum, as well as the Attorney-

There has been no national direction, no

of August 2015, complained that: “lack of fiscal
directives is behind (Nigeria’s) current economic
woes.” This is a big indictment of the
administration. The coming of Buhari has brought
about stagnation in domestic and foreign direct
investments. The stock market has nose-dived,
with investors scared away due to uncertainties
arising from the government’s indecisiveness in
the face of national economic adversity.
One-chance presidency
It is now clear that Buhari obtained votes from
Nigerians during the election through false
pretences. Contrary to his highfalutin campaign
promises, he has not stabilised the international
price of oil. Instead, it has fallen drastically from
$60 to $40. Buhari has not made the naira equal
to the dollar. As a matter of fact, it has
depreciated considerably under his short watch.
He has not used his vaunted military experience
to defeat Boko Haram. On the contrary, the
insurgency has become far more deadly, with
over 1,000 innocent Nigerians killed within just
three months.
Buhari’s promised free meals for school-children,
allowances for discharged Youth Corpers, and
5,000 naira monthly allowance for indigent
Nigerians have all turned out to be poppycock. He
has not even mentioned the coal industry in
Enugu, how much more made any moves to
revive it. His boast to APC governors that he will

(NERC) Chairman, Sam Amadi, stressed that the
recent improvements in power supply are the
result of the efforts made by the Jonathan
administration. That should put paid to bogus
attempts to attribute them to the effects of
Buhari’s “body language.” Neither does “body
language” bring about a turnaround maintenance
of our refineries. The credit for this goes to
“clueless” Jonathan, and not to “Baba Go-Slow.”
If we are now celebrating the end of polio in

regaled with outrageous declarations without
substantiation about how bad the previous
government was, and by how much it ran down

this is just a pathetic attempt to divert attention
from the incompetence of the Buhari
government.

Nevertheless, he found over $30 billion in our

But the evidence shows the loan was for three

earmarked for Lagos/Kano rail.
Governor Oshiomhole of Edo State says a senior
official of the Obama administration revealed that
a Jonathan minister stole $6 billion dollars, no
less. This has been denied by the Americans. He
claims a consultancy fee of 140 billion naira was
paid for the Second Niger Bridge project.
However, the Bureau of Public Procurement says
the total cost of the bridge is 108 billion naira.
Oshiomhole should face his State and desist from
further cheap newspaper blackmails. Someone
needs to remind the APC that election campaigns
are over. Once bitten, Nigerians are now twice
shy. APC won by manipulating the media. It
cannot expect to rule using the same trickery.
Anti-corruption media distractions
Buhari’s so-called fight against corruption has
already become a farce. The first salvo was to lock
up former Jigawa State governor and prospective
2019 PDP presidential candidate, Sule Lamido
and his two sons in jail with extreme prejudice.
Then when Saraki rocked the boat by
steamrolling himself to the Senate presidency
without APC endorsement, his wife was
peremptorily invited for lunch by the EFCC. The
Senate has now retaliated by putting the EFCC
Chairman himself on trial on allegation he stole
trillions of recovered naira.
The truth of the matter is that any anti-corruption
probe is likely to open up a can of worms. Buhari
is surrounded by corrupt politicians. Indeed, the

including Amaechi and Kwankwaso, are also
accused of corruption. Fashola of Lagos is alleged
to have spent 78 million naira setting up a
personal website. These are the president’s
political buddies. We are waiting to see if his
famous probe will also reach them.
Fighting corruption on the pages of newspapers
cannot surely be the only preoccupation of a
government. One trenchant observer said:
“Probing is not governance neither is body
language a substitute for economic policy.”
Northern agenda
With 100 days in office, Buhari’s ethnic
chauvinism is no longer hidden. We have now
discovered that what he meant to say on his
inauguration is: “I belong to every Northerner,
and I belong to no Southerner.” The president
went on official trip to the U.S. without an
economic agenda, but with 29 Northerners and
only four Southerners. While there, he declared
that: “The constituents (that) gave me 97
percent cannot in all honesty be treated on some
issues with constituencies that gave me five
percent.”
We now understand his thinking. Fulani
herdsmen continue to kill innocent farmers while
Buhari sees no evil and hears no evil; after all, he
called them “my people” to Lam Adesina of Oyo
State. Of the 32 critical appointments he has
made so far, 27 are from his native North and
only five from the South. Not a single
appointment from the South-East. When queried
about this blatant discrepancy, Femi Adesina
from the South, and not Garba Shehu from the
North, was craftily trotted out.
Tongue-in-cheek, we are told the appointments
were made strictly on merit. But since when did
the North acquire a monopoly of merit in Nigeria?
How can the region with regularly low cut-off
JAMB scores suddenly become the citadel of the
most meritorious public servants in the country?

The Buhari administration is shaping out to be the
most incompetent and inconsequential in the
history of Nigeria. It is full of sound and fury

1. I am not a Northerner
2. Did you really know the state of the Nigerian economy from August of last year?
3. If yes, you will understand that Buhari's decision now is not against the nation but to make things go well.
4. What are the hurtful decisions Buhari has taken that will affect the economy except you are telling me Osibanjo not allowed into security meeting will do or his not having access to the chapel will?
If you are an entrepreneur you will understand that the failure of the last govt and their consistency in feeding us with unrealistic figures about the economy has brought the nation to a virtual halt. We are gathering again as a nation when we should actually be feasting but some people who felt they were more privileged than others decided to steal our commonwealth. Thank goodness Aribisala didn't say Buhari has stolen thus far. The money stolen under the regime he supports put Nigerians to pain and penury. Aribisala should be truthful to himself first as he still wallows in delusion.

And mind you femi aribisala is a nigerian, he is not taking panadol for anyones headache m nigeria belongs to us all

I keep hearing about the boost in agriculture but we still eat rice from Thailand, chicken from Cotonou, apples from Cotonou, fruits are being brought in from SA now. Did the boost in agriculture happen only to a few including you? Worked on power generation likewise like OBJ who actually started loads of IPP projects. What happened to all the stolen wealth under his watch, or are you one of the beneficiaries? What is your understanding of mediocrity or it is one word you have associated yourself with due to its popularity on social media?

Femi Aribisala is either blind or simply insane.Buhari's 100days have given hope to an average Nigerian that this country can still be great.In my state you can now walk into any petrol station and buy fuel at the pump price of 87naira. The state governments have their bail out funds.Corrupt people are all sick and silent. The refineries scam is exposed.Our stolen money is likely going to be recovered.International communities are reconsidering doing business with Nigeria.Boko Haram people are begging.Aircrafts are no longer sending dollars to South Africa.Oil cabals are paralysed.
....Haba...Aribisala...u no dey fear God? Even Jonathan himself will accept that Change is here!

hobermener:

The nation collapsed you say? Your lots have blatantly refused to give credit to the previous administration, even when its glaringly obvious that nigeria was on a path to greatness under the previous administration. While Jonathan was working with the economic team, boosting agricultural production, working a roadmap to sufficient power generation and boosting direct foreign investment in the country, your likes were peddling falsehood, propaganda and messages of hate on social media. Jonathan is out of office now, and the onus is on buhari to consolidate on his achievement, but what have we seen so far? A ridiculous celebration of mediocrity by the ruling party.

I would agree with you if you can tell me that all the outstanding issues and problems that obj left behind were resolved by GEJ in 100 days. And you expect buhari to consolidate on what? Unemployment, lack of electricity (I am probably the greatest beneficiary of the tremendous improvement on power from virtual 24 hours of darkness to about 16 hours daily. I don't care who had provided the facilities but who ensured that the power company's released what they were hiding from me under GEJ), continuous retrenchment by companies etc.
