Nothing is work. Anyways mr president has already said the hardship is a blessing in disguise. No light, no pms yet they want nigerian youths to be entreprenuers with one yeye ''YES'' program. How can that be possible without an enable environment, even the macro investors are scared of coming to nigeria for business. Failed country

What's amazingbis people even want to givebthe government two years before they start wailing. We complain them call us wailers. The same government that said it will hit the ground running. I think psychos are ruling this country ACN sold out just to oust PDP for selfish reasons but even jagaban know say CPC goons play fast one. A government that instead of putting square pegs in square holes; have resorted to food for the boys type of settlement even in critical sectors of the economy that PDP would have otherwise put in technocrats. There's noting wow about this government than fighting kwarufshan which was only Buharis agenda every other thing is secondary

This is what happens when you paint others bad to look good. When they weren't in power, they criticised everything the past administration did. But when they to power, they finds that it is not easy, instead of taking responsibility for their incompetence and look for the way forward, they keep blaming their past.

My fear is not only about the fake change, but if Nigeria can ever have free and fair election under this Government. A party that stepped on many toes, threatened war if they lose election, and used unspeakable lies to gain power can never allow another party get to power easily.

Nigerians shouldn't just worry about the fake change but how to change the fake change as well

Where were these groans accumulated and reported?

Since IKEDC staff called of their strike, we've been having light in my area, and there's light as i'm typing this.

As for the Fuel scarcity, that too have ended in my area. The only problem is the price of fuel which is being sold at N110/ltr at filling stations. It was initiall at N150 but has been dropping lately.

Pls which area are u talking about? Which filling stations?

FYI, I am not a party person(not PDP, not APC) but I love the truth, and I stand for it!

If these party people have given you some money so that you can come here and type nonsense........my God will PURNISH you and your FAMILY for it! Everlasting punishment.....even on the offsprings(sins of the father)

As far as I'm concerned, a lot of areas in Lagos and even outside Lagos are dark(no light) and even to get fuel, to power generators na war!

Open your eyes and stand for the truth!

Buhari is trying to recover our money from looters........kudos! But he should also think of the sufferings of the masses! I tell u.......he'll keep chasing these guys till his tenure ends.

BUHARI, set a conducive and an enabling environment for the masses and continue your hunt(involve other parties too)

I like your worry, but let me enlighten you. Nigeria problem is like a family managing 1.2 million salary but the company decide to reduce the salary to 300,000.00 from 1,200,000.00. When they we're receiving 1.2 million. No house, expensive school and accommodation with some outstanding loan at d bank.

When Oil is at $120/140, no power plant, no refinery, no road, no industries. At $120, we have excess dollar to finance importation of fuel, but with crash in global oil price from $120/140 now to $26/30/40, importation of oil consume all our foreign exchange. You don't expect Buhari to build refinery under 3 year's not to talk of 10 months. Our hope now is;

1 Diversification

2 Increase in global crude oil price

3 Stop importing fuel and that is till Dangote refinery start operation our refinery at full capacity can only supply 50% of our need.

If PDP cannot diversify with excess crude oil price for 16 year's, stop the importation of fuel, increase our power generation to at list 10,000 MW, they now want Buhari to perform miracle under 10 months.

Algeria foreign reserve is $155 billion during the Oil boom while Nigeria save just $30 billion, nothing to even bank on as a nation.

The cart below is from a Germany Bank, Nigeria is zero.

Change can be positive or otherwise, we need to ask ourselves questions

What question should I as a Nigerian ask myself?

Is it question about how I've not been having light in my area for hours on end?
Or question about why I Dont heave fuel to power generator to run my personal business?

Am I buhari that told me he was a magician but failed to perform any magic?
If anyone must ask any question, it should be buhari, who had failed to deliver on electoral promises.

I think the electricity supply in my area of Lagos has been good this March. We get light almost 24 hours, compared to the one day on next day off , or, two days on one day off rationalized service we had few months ago. Prices of some goods and services have gone up by about 12% to 15%. I am in doubt of a 100% rise in prices stated by someone on this post. Cost of living is getting higher anyway and I hope Government reviews her economic policies to make life easier for us all.

We Nigerian youth need to change our orientation;poverty has prevented many of us thinking straight

Stop blaming the youthd for the present problems in the country, its the leaders who are to blame and yes poverty does affect ones thinking.

Our leaders just don't care for the country, how dyu expect some one who just finished nysc to set up a biz, where s d capital, which bank will give him loan, where's the exposure and know how.

Yet you have perm seconds and dgs who have stolen enuf cash for decades who refuse to retire, if going into biz is easy they ought to lead the way.

The only people who enjoy biz are those who use political or spiritual authority to command patronage.

The rest are just hustlers and petty thieves.

Don't mind them. All they care about is APC/PDP. 16years their beloved PDP was wreaking havoc, stealing money meant for arms, turning NNPC to their personal ATM, paying themselves 65 million per month, looting us dry etc. Now the multiplier effects are troubling us and they shouting APC/PDP.

Brainless Nigerian youths. We are our own worst enemies
