Has Nigeria ever work before? If it did, when?

beegodson:
can you just imagine the statement coming from Peter Obi?... He has just proved what he would do if elected; if he claims this is not an economic policy, then Peter and Atiku's job will be to loot monies and make corruption the theme of 2019!
Nigerians beware, these people are showing their true selves; we cannot have these type of people leading us, when a government doesn't tackle corruption which is the major problem of this country, then he wishes to take sides with corruption and leave the people in suffering.
Vote PMB who's on the side of fighting this plague "corruption", for a better Nigeria.

stop sounding unintelligent , what he said is a pure fact. u can't be fighting only corruption while no viable economic policies to match ug growth. even putting places things to delimit corruption is beta than waiting for people to steal and then u keep on fighting fighting till when. its even ridiculous DT d more corruption buhari claims to be fighting d more hunger and hardship comes on Nigerians, DT tells u there is a big lacuna somewhere

When will he talk about the cost of governance- the pensions he and his fellow friends are collecting each month

Even atiku is collecting pension.

The NASS pay packets.

Seems Obi has found his voice.

Nepotistic tendency is the worst corruptible practice to set upon the people. I say steal my money but do not let dunces lead me. Muhamamdu Buhari is a product of corruption namely nepotism, hence he has continued with this demeanor through his appointments.

baganas:
Thanks. You just spoke my mind. Imagine fighting corruption is a disaster. Nigerians up to you. To avert disaster we must all embrace corruption!!!

CHAI.

slap1:
Shameful, primitive thinking. Buharists are disgustingly illogical.

there re actually no buharists. there re no or few people who share buharis approach to matters. those u see commenting in his support here re actually paid posters on Ninthly basis. don't u see their comments are always devoid of any reasoning and same on all issues

Are you enemy of civilization ?

WaffenSS:
I wonder where you people got the notion that running a business is the same as running a country, especially one as tumultuous and impatient as Nigeria.

That's how you were all deceived that only educated people could do it until a certain dunce with a PhD nearly sunk the country.

There's no prosperous country where they demand youthfulness, education, or business acumen to succeed.

The US is being run by a mad, immoral man whose chief claim to fitness for the job was a business success (despite the bankruptcies). Yet, the administration is chaotic and unstable, and key players are jailed left, right and centre.

Macron of France is said to be young, but the country is besought by tone-deaf policies that are resulting in increasingly violent protests in the face of a failing economy.


Atiku is a failing businessman who relies on our non-investigative media and paid shrills to sell the fiction of his success. The man is dining on the proceeds of his corruption while his many businesses fail; he can barely pay his staff.

We don't need a wealthy, educated business wizard but a respected, respectful, strong-willed, visionary leader. But more than that, we need a patient and embracing citizenry, a committed and sincere national assembly, and honest governors.

In summary, we need genuine leadership at ALL LEVELS: executive, legislative, judiciary, media, clergy, business leaders, and schools.


Else, we'll keep floundering.

Most of your writing makes a lot of sense. Where you went wrong, in my opinion, is in your suggestions of our need for genuine leadership across ALL levels. This is impossible to achieve, and you know this.
Nigeria needs a visionary leader who understands that the fundamental focus of all previous governments, including this present one, has been flawed. Nigeria needs a transformative leader who isn't scared of taking huge steps to change how the country is being managed.

Take Buhari, for example. If he had implemented the Oronsanya report and merged many of our MDAs in 2015, his government may have avoided the deep recession we have faced. His Man, El unfair, advised him, but his cabal was against the policy.

Look at the issue of other Civil service reforms. The public education system is destroyed. In economic hardship, people face severe difficulties in paying for education. In capitalist America, quality primary education is a right, but in communist China, the same policy can be found. El Rufai unsuccessfully tried to reform Kaduna's primary education system. This should have been a national policy with mass funding for building new schools. Still, because Buhari and his cabal were not wunwillingake transformative changes, no beneficial agenda was accomplished.

What makes the leadership situation even sadder for me is that if people like El-Rufai and SLS have limited influence in moving this nation forward, what hope will there ever be for the commoner on the streets of this nation?

But who is claiming the money made from our oil sales. America has a big oil reserve so if they are not buying then they are making use of the reserve. We are also making use of oil every day that is refined locally. Where does the money go? I also doubt that oil will seized to sell any time soon because every apart from automobile all electronic boards have use for it they are all imported products

Dumb abokki dullardist, Sunday trust your abookki newspaper reported it.

I pity the supporters of dis pigs. No matter the amount of water u pour in a basket u can not find any water in the basket. That mean no matter d amount of money ur policy brought to the country there ll never be any developments as far as d money is being syphon by d corrupt politicians.therefore u must block d leakages before pouring ur water (money). GOD BLESS BUHARI

Metuh:
So their economic plans decided to work because corrupt officials were hanged



The government didn't put better measures in place? Was the government hanging oppositions alone?



You think China president is like Buhari the dullard right

There is no better economic measures that will work in Nigeria if there is no harsh law against corrupt politicians in Nigeria. They always have their ways to sabotage any measures put in Place to move Nigeria forward. Take Jonathan regime for example.. despite the fact that he had the best economic team at his disposal, they were the idea behind TSA and BVN but they were just in papers until the present administration but it in play.

mumu that was 2011. Please show us that of 2015. Mind u pmb did not win in 2011 and d promises of 2011 are different from those of 2015 which he won. Ipob let me educate u small. U can't hold him responsible for what he did not say in 2015. we voted him base on what he said in 2015. We didn't vote him base on his promises of 2011. Ipob go back to school

In a system such as ours the president has little control over what statws do with their finances. Also, there's little that can be done without legislative concurrence.

So even if we've a capable president, a corrupt judiciary and legislature can and will render his good intentions moot. At the grassroots the people would be forced to contend with capricious governors.

We also know many Nigerians are inherently corrupt, whether by electricity theft, shortchanging the tax collector, cutting corners, using influence to bypass laws, traffic violations, environmental and audio-visual pollution, lack of empathy, lack of ownership and pride, lack of patriotism....a large cultural shift is needed alongside good leadership at all levels.

For a country used to abusing the law, even good leadership would have significant challenges in the face of wanton indiscipline.

I've traveled many countries; Nigerians stand out like a sore thumb for their loudness, impatience, and general apathy to solid laws and rules due to years of conditioning in a poor society.

It's a pity

A strong president would carry out reforms in any sector, whether state or federal.

You mentioned Nigerian's poor behaviour. Are you not a Nigerian? Am I not also a Nigerian? What differentiates you and me from other Nigerians? Is it not the education our parents were able to afford for us?

The only way to change a people's attitude and culture is to replace beliefs and practices with logic. Only through mass education is this possible. In Nigeria today, parents are responsible for this expensive duty. A transformative leader would not blame his people but would focus on improving mass education and changing the culture of their people.

Abokii the muntullar, your daft presidiot, made it clear he will only go for 1 tenure. Whether he said it in 2011 or 2015 is irrelevant. A promise is a promise and the hypocrite couldn't keep it. You wanted to claim he never made such promise, unfortunately for you uncircumsized dimwitt, the internet never forgets and will continue to be the headache of zombiefied baboons and monkeys like you.


Almajiri, go and die!

You are demented mr almajiri. Right now it is your people in your region that are dying of hunger in IDP camps in abookiland.

Let's laugh at poverty-striken skull.

dunkem21:
Let us give Peter Obi dem a chance to tackle our economy.. There's no way this two men that have successfully run businesses in Nigeria not lead Nigera well.

We have fought corruption enough.. Let's fight hunger small.

It is only in Nigeria that someone who don't know how to read and write become leader and yet they expect him/her to do well. Some people are stupidly dumb in this country.
