Ability to write & read truly does translate to elevated intellect.
Are things generally worst today in Nigeria's history - YES

Were they this bad before May 2015 - No

Swallow your shame.

The difference between a child vs adult and between an educated vs uneducated person in the ability to think and analyse situations.

Once again I give you the same analogy; a tree is uprooted today and the leaves become totally dry after a week, that does not mean the tree was killed the day the leaves got dry (even though the leaves were still fresh a week ago). An averagely sound adult or and educated person should understand the import of this analogy as it concerns the state of the nation today.

Can you call a farmer who eats up the fruits of previous planting season without planting fresh ones to harvest be termed responsible?

If he hasn't got any plantable seedlings in storage somewhere, and then goes ahead to eat up all the fruits he made in the previous planting season, then that doesn't sound like a responsible farmer.

That is Buhari for you.

On the contrary, your farmer has all the features of your GEJ.

By the way, I'm still unsure of the essence of this your farming analogy because I think it even helps buttress my own point. A lousy farm manager distributes all the grains in the barn to the people, the people eat, drink and make merry while feasting on their reserves and praising the farm manager. Fast-forward to the new farming season, there is a drought and a shortage of seeds to plant and even to eat. Coincidentally, the period of this shortage coincides with when a new farm manager takes over; and here we are, the best analysis and conclusion coming from some people who pride in their wisdom and intelligence is that, "when the former farm manager was there, things were good and we were eating, drinking and making merry. But since the new manager came in, we've been hungry. It must totally be the new manager's fault." No reference was made to the drought and no reference was made to the indiscretions and prodigality of the previous farm manager; such an interesting way to reason.

Buhari spent 1st day in office spending $3.5 billion of NLNG savings as compensation to APC governors in the name of bail outs to state who ended up squandering same. He also spent an additional N500 billion through supplementary appropriation. And this he spent from previous harvest without fresh planting.

A very unintelligent argument, such a shallow and unintelligent analysis.

A debt is a debt, the FG from August 2014 owed fuel marketers their subsidies running over N500bn and owing them indefinitely is certainly not economic wisdom or a virtue, especially when the importers had already downed tools leading to massive fuel scarcity.

Secondly, the FG gave out 'loans' in the form of bailouts to states owing salaries in order to ease the sufferings of the masses who were being owed several months of their salary. The FG belongs to Nigeria and represents the interests of Nigerians; if your own smart idea of good leadership is having the FG abandon its own people to die of hunger (even when it could do something), then my friend, your reasoning is quite pathetic. You probably prefer the people to suffer and die of hunger so you can have something to accuse Buhari of; such evil and repugnant way to reason.

Lastly you claimed the bailouts were given to APC states, that is another case of stark self-inflicted shameless ignorance you just exhibited there; out of the 27 states which were rundown and unable to pay workers, 16 were PDP ruined states. And even just recently, we've seen protests from workers in Bayelsa and doctors in Ondo lamenting the non-payment of over 5 months salaries; even Osun state has managed to clear a major chunk of its backlog. Meanwhile these are 2 oil producing, 13% derivation munching PDP states. But even after receiving bailouts, they are still asking for more; there goes the folly in your argument that APC states are taking bailouts.

Really !

Subsidy as at May 2015 was 160 billion, how come Buhari paid 500 billion alongside 750 billion bai out that was embezzled by Imo, Benue & Osun states.

The question which your govt has not answered is for how long do you continue to bail out despite the fact that the states are unable to pay your said 'loans' & asking for more.
Buhari is just spending & spending, borrows & keeps borrowing more to continue spend without creating wealth creation avenues.

Your pointless insistence that bailout is being received by APC states, and then you even go ahead to mention names of some APC states, this speaks volumes of your intellectual capacity. There is absolutely no point engaging with you. Thanks!

Nigeria needs prayers urgently.

When Nigerians were shouting change change and sai buhari ,they didn't think they needed prayers then ,it is now they know they need prayers after voting in the wrong person and party.

Wailing Mourner, you still have seven years of mourning to do.

@ topic, no problems. The end will justify the means.

Governance is not a sprint but marathon.

Price of crude oil which is the main source of Nigeria's income dropped to it's lowest price in more than a decade.

Billions of dollars stollen by IB and his cohorts.

Reserves and SWF depleted by the same Ineffectual Clown from Otuoke.

PMB is on a mission to restructure Nigeria and it will take some time because it's easy to destroy than to build.

If not for PMB, what Greece is passing through would have been a child's play should the thieving cabals of GEJ and co still be in charge.

Did you say PMB is on a mission to restructure Nigeria? hahahahaha.... You must be joking.

He should start with the CONFAB reports.

Obvious comprehension incapacity !

I mentioned states that was indicted for embezzling bail out funds and they are APC states, meanwhile your oga is contemplating more bail out for them.

And by that seven years, the inflow would have dropped to below $1m.
God forbid.
