Obasanjo na idiot...quote me anywhere. No be dem dem turn Nigeria to a begging country after embezzled so much.And I read about Ajaokuta steel company how he brought his son as a front to run down a whole system of Ajaokuta that could have taken the whole of Africa out of abject poverty. Monkey. |

BeardedMeat:Thats true man. Governments need our honest, constructive criticisms to remind it of its duties to the people and to get it on its toes. We can't be praising the government all the times...especially when the realities on ground reflect the contrary. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Khd95: Prayers and support. At least OBJ can point to one tangible thing he achieved. Indeed it was a laudable one. OBJ had one thing going which other administrations dont have. OBJ was able to communicate to the masses. Whether they were propaganda or actual truths that is a topic for another day. But you would admit that it went a long way to inform Nigerians. This time around all we hear is that Buhari is planning......he is strategizing......etc.............WHAT EXACTLY IS HE DOING? That is what we need. Tell us something. Carry us along. That is why they call him BABA GO SLOW. 1 Like |

One clear thing the Govt. Of the day has failed to realize is that no one has ever made it to the top by bringing others down. Secondly, There's no excuse to failure. A Govt the ll fail or succeed ll do so regardless of the economic situation they find themselves. Until APC learn to acknowledge d gains recorded by their predecessor, they r not going anywhere. We all know that PDP 16 yrs in government was not perfect, but they were not not completely useless as well. APC should think of how to salvage d sufferings of d masses n not engaging in condemnation of anything PDP left behind. Simply cos GEJ said that PMB is still using the weapons his government procured to fight BH (which is obvious) we all know that PMB has not bought even a single pistol,cos 2016 budget is still under debate. Lia Mohd.rushed to release a statement to run down d weapons GEJ procured. They should be able to acknowledge where PDP has done well and where they failed to do well (even though we already know) That crude oil is sold at $30 per barrel is not an excuse for a responsible Govt to take us 30 yrs backwards. Our electorial system is nothing to wrote home about under their watch, Disregard to court orders with impunity,instead of increasing minimum wage, they Imposed #50 Stamp duty on d already over burdened masses n yet de tell us that they can't pay workers salaries what kind of change is this? 2 Likes |

mrmetoo1:To add to some of the things you narrated. I think one move against wastage and corruption in Nigeria is to immediately move for a 70% capital expenditure and 30% recurrent expenditure. So that anybody coming to serve will know there is no fat salary. There is too much money in the hands of few individuals in these countries while majority are poor. Tax the rich to give to the poor( British system) All the monthly allocation of states should be published and transactions of the state government shd be sent to the EFCC and also published. It reminds me of Akpabio giving Musicians Cars like he is using his personal money. We know what to do to make this country better but greed is the problem. 1 Like |

DropShot: My friend, if Buhari does not consult, he will surely fail. Life and history is chequered with men who towed similar paths, and for your information this is a democracy where numbers rule. Your powers and influence are directly linked to them. Buhari was removed by members of the SMC, his own constituency in 1985. Members who were more in touch with the people than he and Idiagbon. Dictatorship is bad for many reasons and is akin to dulling nerve endings. Destruction creeps in and overwhelms without notice. He ignores his party hierachy to his peril. Must sad history always repeat itself. 4 Likes 1 Share |

DropShot: Wrong again and shows sentiments. Face the game, not the players. No matter how badly the PDP has done it remains your only hope of salvation, of change. It will guarantee you more 'change' than the APC because responsibility is hard. Anyway it will be delusional to think the APC will remain in power forever no matter the performance. Winston Churchill led Britain to war success and then was voted out having considered him not worthy to handle the peace. Bush broke America, Obama repaired it now the people say he is too soft and want to kick 'some a.rse' abroad once again. Such is life. Buhari to repair the purse Babangida to squander once again. Don't you just love the game... and the PDP. 4 Likes 1 Share |

I am a staunch believer that there is a limit where egotistic ignorance and narcissism can take one to. You can not handover a national economy in 21st century to a semi-literate khakistocrat and expect anything positive. When they borrow so much, where do they think is the source of the funds to pay the debts ? The same oil that is now cheaper than cocaine ? People with vision know that this country has no future with the present brand of politicians in power. Nigeria is a blueprint of exactly how illiteracy can mar a people. 1 Like |

scachy: Are you even serious or are you just playing around? No one tried to bring anyone down, all that happened to the last administration was that the truth was exposed. The problem is the truth was very ugly. Then you said Nelson Mandela led South Africa out of the worst economic recession.. wonderful! MLK did that also? As in I'm hearing things I've never heard in my life. I didn't even know MLK was in the position to lead anyone out of any recession, not to talk of out of the worst recession. Ghandi too led india out of a recession, as in this is very brand new mind-blowing information. You left out Malcolm X and Mother Theresa. The APC led government still has 3 years and some months to determine failure. They met a mess and they have to climb out of it. You think people will make a mess, steal money anyhow and another government will just come in and immediately steer us to paradise?? Keep dreaming. We're in a huge mess and there's no painless way to get out of it, so buckle up and get creative. Obama went through this situation when he came in and it wasn't until his second term before we started seeing wholesome results of all the mess cleaning they were doing. Take it or leave it, the past administration messed up this country bad. If you personally know insiders of the past administration, they'll tell you the same privately. I know them, I know guys that become billionaires during the past administration. One of them told me "things are rough now but if its those guys that were still in power this country would have totally collapsed". No one is saying this present administration has done everything right but they're at least trying to patch the wound that has been inflicted on us. In clear terms, not only was GEJ not perfect, GEJ was a bad president and he had 5 years to prove that to us. |

bakynes: I agree 100%. Imagine at this point, considering what the country is going through some guys are still trying to hide N10bn from just one ministry. Imagine our NASS wanting to spend billions on cars. Our country scares me, it feels the worst of the worst of us have made it to the top and they're bent on destroying the country. When they acquire all the property and all the cars and they leave the rest of the nation in shambles, what exactly have they gained? |

scachy: I'll post a link below to further educate you. Please guys, we need to educate ourselves before we come on a public forum to spew stuff. This article below talks about Mandela's economic legacies. One thing that should strike you is the amount of time that was spent in turning things around. These things take some time before manifestation and this is even going with the fact the SA had the most advanced infrastructural development in Africa. Their main thing they were battling then was the effects of sanctions because of the apartheid. In Nigeria, we're dealing with dilapidated infrastructure, terrorism, failure of sound economic policies for the past years and failure to save and years of theft, of gross corruption and mismanagement. http://www.bbc.com/news/business-23041513 |

You guzzle billions on food for Aso rock, billions for BMW cars, decorations, globetrotting, propaganda, 12 private jets etc. God will punish all hypocrites & wicked men like Buhari & his zombies! 2 Likes |
