Only Lazy Nigerians Are Hungry Under Buhari, Customs Boss Says by Inspire01: 7:41am On May 23, 2018
The Comptroller - General of the Nigeria Customs Service , Hameed Ali , on Tuesday, said only lazy Nigerians would claim to be hungry under President Muhammadu Buhari .
Ali said this while enumerating what he called the achievements of the present administration in agriculture when he led members of the Buhari Support Organisation to the Presidential Villa , Abuja .
According to him , manna does not fall from heaven, hence the lazy must be hungry .
He said , “ What more can we say in terms of growth of wealth? People say we are hungry . Of course , the lazy must be hungry because if you do not work hard , manna doesn ’t fall from heaven .
“ So , when people say we are hungry , there was never a time in Nigeria that food was dropped in the mouth of the people and there can never be .”
He told Buhari that Nigerians were behind him in his quest to seek re - election in 2019.
“ All we want to say on behalf of Nigerians is that we are solidly behind you in this second term bid ,” Ali told Buhari .
The Customs boss attributed Buhari ’ s decision to lead the country even when he is above 70 years to his love for Nigeria.
He said if he was in Buhari ’s shoes , he won ’t take up such a responsibility .
He said , “ I have said it and I will repeat it here , Mr . President , with all due respect, at 70 plus, with good retirement benefits and with your house in Daura, if I were you , I will see no reason to be in this arena .
“But why are you here? It is because you love this great country . You left your comfort to serve Nigeria and that is why those of us who love you for who you are must follow you and ensure that your second term in this country becomes a reality .”
Ali said Buhari ’s administration had changed Nigeria, claiming that the country had grown because of the discipline the President had instilled in the financial sector .
He said the nonchalant attitudes of siphoning money were no longer in existence.
The Customs boss said he had been stepping on toes while carrying out his duties because of the confidence he had that nobody could approach Buhari to stop him from doing his job .

Lol. Some truth in this. Most graduates I know have a nice paying job. On daily basis, job adverts are stamped her on nairaland. It appears the majority of the people crying on nairaland are the dropouts and losers. Even I am looking for workers, cooks and cleaners in my brand new shiny hotel at ota. And I still go to China to buy goods supplying petroleum equipment to small oil coys. I lived in the UK and malaysia and worked for the Aramco division at Otr for years, men the opportunities in naija issa boundless one. No better place to live than this wonderful country

I have never seen a govt anywhere in the world that insults its citizens like buhari's destructive regime. With rising food prices daily no thanks to Buhari's visionless policies and a static income and you expect Nigerians not to be hungry? Virtually 90% of income and salaries today goes to food. I guess those who's agricultural produce were destroyed by buhari's terrorist herders must be very lazy.
But what do I know? North East people might actually be the most laziest set of people in the world.

Buhari is the true definition of lazyness no wonder he blames everyone including the youth for his failures
Re: Only Lazy Nigerians Are Hungry Under Buhari, Customs Boss Says by Xander85: 10:47am On May 23, 2018
These peoples arrogance is breathtaking! I suppose all those millions that have lost their jobs are lazy as well?

And just what is it with these people calling hapless Nigerians lazy all the time? I just don't get it!

Let everyone answer their papa name, only then can we separate the men from the boys and know just who the 'lazy ones' are!

These retirees are feeding fat off our commonwealth, not knowing how the rest of us are managing, but are quick to term the not so fortunate ones who do not have access to the treasury "lazy".
