Hahahaahah, typical of a zombie to list the weaknesses of the former administration n what he thinks is the strength of the present administration, ur long write up would ve made more sense if u listed the mistakes I mean weaknesses of Buhari n d strenghts of Jonathan as well.
Don't get me started too.
We r talking about mistakes here, so?
Just imagine the state of the Economy n so many other things, n u r here writing a long list of thrash u feel is OK for u n ur fellow zombies.
Look whether u like it or not. Jonathan is far better than Ur Buhari thank u.
And oh, since u decided to b petty enough to talk about their wives, here is a thing, u should ve been petty enough to mention the manner at which ur president speaks, u would need an interpreter for his own citizens to understand him.,



Guy forget! You were beaten hands down by a more critical and intellectual argument! The guys gave u facts without sentiments! You lots blame buhari on one assumption, the state of the economy! Forgetting that this man inherited oil at less than 30dols a barrel! Some of us in the oil sector understand the enormity of differential in national income, nd this same man has still been able to save a sizeable chunk! Haba! Give him some credit,he has fought tooth nd nail to stop loopholes as well! Y not the him a chance after the implementation of the first budget before casting stones! Or u ve blown ur whistle before the match even started! I bet u! Like this man tackled corruption nd insurgents, so he will tackle the economy with all zeal and sincerity, nd that's what I like about him, he might not be the most intelligent leader we could ve gotten! But u can never fault his zeal, commitment, sincerity and integrity towards national interest! I know God will see him tru, irrespective of a lot of ya opinions! Cos in 2015 we prayed like never before! Nd God gave us his best

-Boko Haram is decimated in less than one year, army re-equipped and motivated. Something Jona could not do in six years after spending over $5billion

-local manufacturers and farmers are having the best of times

-power supply peaked under him, even though it crashed suddenly (and we know why)

-subsidy is cancelled and cabal broken

-corruption reduced at the federal level. Recovery of stolen commonwealth.

-new factories are opening up and investors are showing interest

-over N2.8trillion saved via TSA. Billions saved from discovered ghost workers

-states bailed out

-federal govt is liquid and has not borrowed to meet overheads (Jona was looking to borrow a year ago just to pay salaries)

-clean up of Niger Delta commissioned

-N500b earmarked in the budget for the most vulnerable citizens

-a wife that does not infest our national life with crude reasoning and undignified actions

-all achieved without the full budget




What is this rambling? We are not talking about a few mistakes

-Buni-Yadi boys murdered in there sleep, Chibok girls, who he ignored for weeks, denied for weeks and loafed around for the rest of his regime? Mistake?

-billions spent to pray for Boko Haram to fall down and die, mistake?

-unseviceable weapons bought at multiple times the price of new ones that turned out to be instruments of death, was that also a mistake?

-Multibillion Naira contracts to sworn militants to protect strategic national assets was no mistake

-dollar cash withdrawals from the CBN to prosecute elections, a mistake?

Distributing gold plated iphones bought with our money and crested with our coat of arms during his 'daughter's' wedding was an in-your-face insult to me

-wife serving as a permanent secretary from nowhere was an obnoxious behaviour which he condoned. Wife building estates, hotels and acquiring choice property was a sign of mental poverty which cannot be excused.

-billions wasted on oil subsidy, and refineries crippled? Oil deals that made no sense? Billions of dollars stolen? Mistake?

-Met power at about 5kMW, spent billions, sold national assets to some people, gave them unbelievable incentives, dashed them money and left with power generation still less that 5kMW. Was that a mistake?

-Enugu-Onitsha, Enugu-PH, Aba-Ikot Ekpene (abandoned), Ikot Ekpene - Umuahia and hundreds of roads in serious state of disrepair untouched for 6 years, mistake? Remember MC Loph? He died because of a very bad road. And thousands of others.

Gradually they are admitting that their Mandela of Otuoke did not only made mistakes, but he is a mistake personified too.

It took Reno almost 1year out of office to realise that. Is this not the same fake pastor that used his system to initiate a fraudulent letter to indict others.

By the way Jonathan meant well,

You have very low expectations.

If you are prepared to evaluate a person holding the highest office in the land on the basis of " meaning well" Then your expectations must be quite low. Even in something as mundane as entertainment and sports, performance always trumps intention. As for PMB, lets talk about him in 2019 when his first term expires. The best way of comparing anything is to use a standardized basis. Let's use their respective first terms.

Who are ministers that were youths? Names please....!!!!

Ok, women as ministers;..... So? How did help an ordinary Nigerian or the economy? Rather......the women proved to be more sophisticated thieves than the men.

U call a secondary sch extension a university. Virtually all federal universities needed upgrade and renovations but in the quest o deceive dumb followers and enrich some individuals, that was abandoned, and new glorified secondary schs where created. Interestingly, this same people hailing "new unis" were quick to tell us that, Jonathan could not overlook old roads and create new ones when the olds ones needed rehabilitation. I wonder how the logic works for road construction and not for unis.
All the new unis joined together can never match up with what is on ground in OAU as an example which was built with cocoa money. Not to even mention other univerisities. Oil in Nigeria is a curse.

As for YouWin..... cheesy laughable. One of the greatest scam after subsidy claims and immigration scam.

God really blessJonathan government but he wasted all the resource, under OBJ crude oil is at $40, saved $43 billion, pay debt $12 billion, state & federal joint account $21 billion, that is $71 billion.

Ask Jonathan, crude oil at $100/$140, nothing was saved. Algeria foreign reserve is $155 billion while Nigeria is just $30 billion. Jonathan pay no debt borrow more, $1 billion in joint account, reduceo Ur reserve from $43 billion to $30 billion with the Oil boom. Even Libya in war save $61 billion, but we can see private jet and mansions everywhere.

A germany bank table, Nigeria is zero of all.

DONT GET ME STARTED.

Please do tell:

1) which equipment or weapon system did the PMB administration buy for the military in the war against terror? Cos EVERY new system in use (weapons, tactical training, equipment) was purchased by the GEJ administration.

2) How many power stations have PMB built or at least commissioned? Cos last I checked GEJ built and commissioned far more stations than his predecessors combined, along with upgrading and expanding our transmission grid, plus building far more distribution substations across the country and the massive distribution of transformers under Prof Nebo's watch. Did I mention the unbundling of NEPA thus eliminating govt inefficiency and including private sector participation, plus the outsourcing of TCN mgt? Oh btw, GEJ is responsible for breaking the long jinx, increasing generated power from a paltry 1000 plus MW to almost 5000MW. The success has nothing to do with the PMB administration or his body language.

3)Manufacturers having the best time? Yet they're closing up shop and moving to Ghana. Please do tell what this administration has done to cushion the current economic hardships for local SMEs? Any loans, or tax breaks, or at least reducing port tariffs for imported goods needed for manufacturing?.........yeah, I dont think so.
Oh yeah, about agriculture, it was the GEJ administration that was responsible for our improved food security, thanks to the massive produce output till date, elimination of the fertilizer cartel, the e-wallet scheme. The PMB administration is yet to replicate such successes.

4) And the oil subsidy. Last I checked it was GEJ that exposed the fraud there and pushed to end it. Now guess who kicked against it? Thats right, folks like you, the then opposition, and the #OccupyNaija movement (but im sure youve forgotten no thanks to selective amnesia). At least it was still partially withdrawn with proceeds used to fund SURE-P projects from infrastructure to healthcare. But do tell, what has pMB done to eliminate the subsidy, which btw has ballooned under his watch? Here's one funny observations though, under the GEJ administration with high oil prices, there was a MASSIVE fuel glut in the system with fuel everywhere. But under PMB with extremely low oil prices, its fuel scarcity galore.

you fail to understand two facts...

1. You cannot compare 1 year's work to that of 6 years.

2. The present socioeconomic circumstances were already set in motion by the Gej administration. It was like a time bomb waiting to go off. Oil prices had already dropped and was still falling rapidly, the naira was weakened, a fact which was aided by Gej's draining of the foreign reserve which previous administrations before him built up, almost all the states in the federation were owing their workers, BH was reigning mayhem on Nigerians with impunity, there was massive unemployment, etc (In the midst of all these was a Gej that folded his arms and watched his aids and close associates bleed Nigeria dry).

Compare this with when Gej landed in office, then you know that Buhari is miles ahead in terms of achievement, given the intemperate climate he had to work in since his inauguration, coupled with limited resources. I don't want to even imagine what Nigeria would be like if Gej were in power at a time like this...one sentence sums it up tho...it would have been hell.

My biz is running fine and I have employed 3 jobless people like you. I never knew any senator, minister, perm sec or any influential person.

-Met power at about 5kMW, spent billions, sold national assets to some people, gave them unbelievable incentives, dashed them money and left with power generation still less that 5kMW. Was that a mistake?

-Enugu-Onitsha, Enugu-PH, Aba-Ikot Ekpene (abandoned), Ikot Ekpene - Umuahia and hundreds of roads in serious state of disrepair untouched for 6 years, mistake? Remember MC Loph? He died because of a very bad road. And thousands of others.

DONT GET ME STARTED.

5) Corruption reduced at the Federal level.....yet they could pad the budget. Youre aware that PMBs gym alone is gulping over One billion naira, right?

6) What clean up of the Niger Delta? PMB did say he was going to do that.......that was 8 months ago. Till, NOTHING/NADA/ZILCH has been done.

7)Oh one more thing on the power issue...GEJ NEVER EVER met power at 5000MW. Power prior to his administration NEVER EVER exceeded the 1500MW mark. But like I said, GEJ broke that jinx by increasing generated power to almost 5000MW and increased installed capacity.

cool Since when did the oil subsidy end? And which cabal broken? Same cabal that played their hand about a month or so ago causing one of the WORST fuel scarcity in our history? Hell, fuel marketers I know tried pumping out their dead stock of PMS just to survive.

9) Roads in state of disrepair....tell that to roads like the Ikot-Abasi-Ogoni road, Jalingo-Numan-Yola road, Jalingo-Wukari-Zaki Biam-Gboko road, Enugu-Abakili-Ogoja road, Otukpo. Thanks to GEJ, my last trip from Taraba to Akwa Ibom was slashed from 14 solid hours to SIX (6) HOURS. Btw, didnt super minister Fashola admit that GEJ refurbished FAR MORE ROADS than any other administration?

You can continue to make a fool of yourself here, GEJ through YOUWIN empowerd me to start an Agribusiness, I was roaming the streets like you after NYSC, I heard about YOUWIN and wrote a biz plan and submitted, went for interview and was selected. My biz is running fine and I have employed 3 jobless people like you. I never knew any senator, minister, perm sec or any influential person. The programme was purely on merit, your sentiments would never take away that fact. The problem GEJ had was excess loot by his aides, as per his economic policies, they'll definitely live longer than you.

I am sure your monthly turnover with your so called house helps allowance cant not stand 1/4 of my monthly income.
That some few people benefitted from a scam does not disqulify it from being a scam.
This is a faceless forom, it is very foolish of u to assume i am jobless. If u need sponsor for your farming business...PM me.

Please do tell:

1) which equipment or weapon system did the PMB administration buy for the military in the war against terror? Cos EVERY new system in use (weapons, tactical training, equipment) was purchased by the GEJ administration.

2) How many power stations have PMB built or at least commissioned? Cos last I checked GEJ built and commissioned far more stations than his predecessors combined, along with upgrading and expanding our transmission grid, plus building far more distribution substations across the country and the massive distribution of transformers under Prof Nebo's watch. Did I mention the unbundling of NEPA thus eliminating govt inefficiency and including private sector participation, plus the outsourcing of TCN mgt? Oh btw, GEJ is responsible for breaking the long jinx, increasing generated power from a paltry 1000 plus MW to almost 5000MW. The success has nothing to do with the PMB administration or his body language.

3)Manufacturers having the best time? Yet they're closing up shop and moving to Ghana. Please do tell what this administration has done to cushion the current economic hardships for local SMEs? Any loans, or tax breaks, or at least reducing port tariffs for imported goods needed for manufacturing?.........yeah, I dont think so.
Oh yeah, about agriculture, it was the GEJ administration that was responsible for our improved food security, thanks to the massive produce output till date, elimination of the fertilizer cartel, the e-wallet scheme. The PMB administration is yet to replicate such successes.

4) And the oil subsidy. Last I checked it was GEJ that exposed the fraud there and pushed to end it. Now guess who kicked against it? Thats right, folks like you, the then opposition, and the #OccupyNaija movement (but im sure youve forgotten no thanks to selective amnesia). At least it was still partially withdrawn with proceeds used to fund SURE-P projects from infrastructure to healthcare. But do tell, what has pMB done to eliminate the subsidy, which btw has ballooned under his watch? Here's one funny observations though, under the GEJ administration with high oil prices, there was a MASSIVE fuel glut in the system with fuel everywhere. But under PMB with extremely low oil prices, its fuel scarcity galore.
Gej did not expose subsidy fraud. Sanusi did and was subsequently kicked out. It is u who has selective amnesia

All the new unis joined together can never match up with what is on ground in OAU as an example which was built with cocoa money. Not to even mention other univerisities. Oil in Nigeria is a curse.

As for YouWin..... cheesy laughable. One of the greatest scam after subsidy claims and immigration scam. I see your sense of judgment has been beclouded by bitterness but it's bad to call someone a mistake! GeJ meant well and did well like wise GMB means well. The problem is people around them.

It's unfortunate that people don't understand what it means to be the leader of a nation. No such thing exists as saying a Leader 'meant well'. Going by this train of thought, Hitler was also a stand up guy; he 'meant well' for the Nazis.

We need to break out of the mould of mediocrity, Nigeria has no use for and will never have a use for a leader that 'meant well'. I am not a supporter of our over-aged president, however i still feel it is better to have a govt that has made as much noise as this govt has in it's less than one year in office than to have a govt that comes up with ridiculous faux pas weekly.

It is impossible to not notice that there is now a decisive hand at the helm of affairs and not one that just goes wherever the wind blows him. I agree though, PMB is as insensitive as they come; but what did we expect? we voted in a retired Daura general as president! it is my fervent hope that in 2019 or 2023 we will final be given a chance to vote in a president that knows what he's about while also sympathizing with the groans of his citizens (and is below sixty, and has never been Head of state before, and is not terminally ill).

And so it's all good and fine that GEJ 'meant well', but that is not the stuff leaders are made of.

THE FIRST HUNDRED DAYS
Roosevelt’s quest to end the Great Depression
was just beginning. Next,he asked Congress to
take the first step toward ending Prohibition—
one of the more divisive issues of the 1920s—
by making it legal once again for Americans to
buy beer. (At the end of the year, Congress
ratified the 21st Amendment and ended
Prohibition for good.) In May, he signed the
Tennessee Valley Authority Act into law,
enabling the federal government to build dams
along the Tennessee River that controlled
flooding and generated inexpensive
hydroelectric power for the people in the region.
That same month, Congress passed a bill that
paid commodity farmers (farmers who
produced things like wheat, dairy products,
tobacco and corn) to leave their fields fallow in
order to end agricultural surpluses and boost
prices. June’s National Industrial Recovery Act
guaranteed that workers would have the right
to unionize and bargain collectively for higher
wages and better working conditions; it also
suspended some antitrust laws and established
a federally funded Public Works Administration.
In addition to the Agricultural Adjustment Act,
the Tennessee Valley Authority Act, and the
National Industrial Recovery Act, Roosevelt had
won passage of 12 other major laws, including
the Glass-Steagall Banking Bill and the Home
Owners’ Loan Act, in his first 100 days in
office. Almost every American found something
to be pleased about and something to
complain about in this motley collection of bills,
but it was clear to all that FDR was taking the
“direct, vigorous” action that he’d promised in
his inaugural address.





stop the blame game and work thats why APC was voted in .

So Reno is finally admitting Jonathan is dumb.

If Jonathan tried and failed this much, then it is obvious he is dumb.

Only God knows how far down Jonathan would have taken Nigeria if he did not decide to try at all.
