Politics › Re: How Buhari’s Low Bar Is Elevating Atiku - Farooq Kperogi by truthfulparrot(m):
What really baffles me is the cult like followerdhip of PMB among the informed elites.
How do you explain the fact that the communication minister who is embroiled in NYSC certificate is boasting openly that he will not resign and PMB is still retaining him? Does it not imply that our president is not in control? It is very nasusting when people justify the inefficiency of PMB government by comparing it with past regimes.

How will strong supporters of PMB on Nairaland justify the fact that PMB had not fired Shittu since?
What will Festus Keyamo and prof Sagae have to say......... Shame
Politics › Re: Minimum Wage: FG Warns Labour To Accept Its Proposed Figure by truthfulparrot(m): 6:47pm On Oct 19, 2018
Very soon when hunger and suffering will reset the mind of the gullible Nigerians who want to die for politicians.
Now workers under PMB will not be able to protest any unfavorable policy.

Very soon, the Zombies will realise that they had supported a dictator who will beat them and not allow them to cry

buhariguy:
you must be a newbie or just coming from Cotonou,
According to OPEC report it is not only about the price of oil but the money that was received from the sales of the oil, you do remember that production was reduced to 700,000 per day during the period of the avengers from 2m barrel per day since 1999.
That was why OPEC report shows that thief ibb received $114b from sales not actually the price, thief abacha received $190b, thief obj received $430b in 8yrs, yardua received $280b in 4yrs, gej received $385b In 4yrs, in total of Pdp of 16yrs was $1.1tr without a single project, or maybe the money was flying round whereby each MDAs open 20 bank account just to defraud you and I, but today all money is kept in TSA,
Buhari received $94b from oil sales or proceed, not price because the price and production was low and he was able to touch almost all sector of the economy like housing sector that has never be touched before since 1980.
850km of roads constructed,1550 rehabilitated, 2 airport upgrade to international standard.
17 moribund fertilizer plant revived, irrigation for on/off season for farming,
This agricultural revolution is to reduce the rate of importation,
2 seaport and dry port completed, 2 railway completed, and so many achievement with little resources within 3yrs, that is what Pdp could not achieve in 16yrs with $1.1tr that is enough to build a country like Canada.
So tell which area buhari has failed, except in the area of not sharing the money.
I hope you get the gist.
Are you being paid to defend the indefensible with lies? Watch out for my write up on the performance of the economy between 1999 and 2017. I will soon give out some abstract from my thesis. If only people know that we are on the way to Zimbabwe. At least I am impressed that you did not retort to your usage of vulgar language that is very repulsive. The OPEC figures you gave is very misleading and incorrect. There are acceptable parameters for measuring economy growth in relation to human and social index.Everything is not about politics. The major mistake people like you are making is that you attack the messager of any criticism against PMB without looking at the merit of the message.

buhariguy:
those that called in are Pdp, they can be 5% in the North.
The truth must be told, how has buhari failed economically,?
A man that received $94b according to OPEC report, and he was able to manage the economy more than the man that received $400b in 4yrs without a single project and in 16yrs according to OPEC report, Pdp received $1.1tr without a single project.
So how did buhari failed economically?
Is it his fault that oil price went down to $30/barrel from $120 during Pdp government.
So what did you expect him to do? Except to be stealing like the past in order for cash to flow round to people like you and those who have not see 2,000naira before that are receiving 5,000naira monthly payment would have be crying till they die without hope.
It is either you are grossly misinformed or you are so blinded by your misguided trust in Buhari as I found it nauseating that you rolled out dubious statistics to support the woeful economic performance of PMB. For your information I am one of those that voted out Jonathan because I know he did not do enough to curb the corruption that was going on under him. But to my dismay, worst corruption is going on under PMB.
Please find below link that shows average oil prices between 1976 to 2018.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/262860/uk-brent-crude-oil-price-changes-since-1976/#0
One stupid excuse that ignorant people had been given is that PMB could not perform because of low price of crude oil. For your information the average price of crude oil between 1999 and 2003 is less than 28usd. But Obasanjo did not gave the excuse that Abacha has looted all our treasurery. He quickly assembled a formidable economic team that steered Nigeria to economic recovery that was applauded world wide. He even rescheduled and paid off our debt. The average oil price between 2005 and 2009 is less than 60usd, but OBJ and Yaradua were able to manage our economy to the extent that Nigeria was able to survive the impact of the global economic meltdown of 2008. Though I am not a fan of Jonathan, but we need to appreciate the fact that despite the corruption that was going on under him, he did well in managing our economy to become the biggest in Africa. As at 2018 the average price of oil in the three years of PMB is more than 50usd and yet PMB had borrowed mire money in 3 years than the total money that PDP borrowed in 16 years. I am talking from a position of knowledge without any bias our economy is going down the drain under PMB. Very soon, I will do a comprehensive write up on our economy to enlighten people like you. But the simple way to know that something is not right is the unprecedented hunger and suffering in the land since 2015. Let us not pretend that things are okay because of politics. I still believe that PMB has integrity but he is a weak leader and the people he sorrounded himself with are sabotaging him.
Politics › Re: “the Spirit Of Error” In Nigerian Politics, By Reuben Abati by truthfulparrot(m):
I supported Buhari in 2015, but like I always say I am not a Zombie. Buhari woefully failed to live up to expectations. Infact it is very glaring that he is fast losing support as people with common sense are seeing his hypocrisy and incompetent.
PMB went off the mark when he delayed for six months before choosing his cabinet. The most annoying thing is that he sorrounded himself with people of shady characters and failed to act desisively when his aides were accused of corruption.
His fight against corruption is now a laughing stock. He committed a great blunder by treating corrupt members of APC with kids gloves and using sledge hammer against the opposition.
Efcc as an institution has been grossly compromised. How do you explain the fact that Efcc alledged that Obanikoro took N4.7b from former NSA and gave N1.3b to Fayose and N1.3b to Omisore. Is it not ridiculous that Obanikoro and Omisore are not being harrashed because they are now friends of APC?
PMB performance on the economy is very poor and callous.
If the truth must be told, PMB will not win again in a free and fair election. I listened to a radio call in program this morning and I was supprised that most of the people from the north that called in are very dissatisfied with PMB performance.

This is very sad and pathetic. My heart goes out to the parents.
I am sure that Karma will soon visit and punish all the politicians and religious leaders that played politics with the issue of Boko Haram instead of uniting to fight against the monster called Boko Haram.
Those who opposed the proscription of Boko Haram and said that an attack against Boko Haram is an attack against the north will never know peace.
How do we decend to this low level?

Politics › Re: Kano Government Reacts To Video Of Governor Ganduje 'Receiving Bribe' by truthfulparrot(m): 10:37pm On Oct 14, 2018
sweetgala:
Thank you ooh, thou I am a Buhari supporter I can neven defend this their weak reply.

The video was not doctored however it is not clear the form of transaction ongoing since there is no audio discussion of bribe activity to accompany the video or any text communication between the giver /receiver of the bribe to confirm this ; however the moral onus is on Ganduje to explain what the transaction he was seen engaging in was about and support it with adequate proof if indeed it was legitimate otherwise one can only conclude it is bribe as proposed by the newspaper

What is however clear to the world is that Ganduje received some amount of money and he put the said bundles in his babariga
The publisher explained that the audio was removed to protected the identity of the giver who is presently under threat. The video with audio version had been shown to some media houses and independent verificators. Amnesty International had even issued a statement asking that the journalist and his family should be protected. Why are some people trying to defend falsehood in the name of politics? The reasoning ability of some Nigerian youths is very defective.

Since it's 2819 u re right.
The typo error has been corrected. I will remind you and other doubting Thomas when the 10 predictions came to pass.
Politics › My Predictions For 2019 by truthfulparrot(op):
1) ATIKU will gain more international recognition and endorsements locally and internationally

2) ATIKU will be granted US visa and he will be will be invited by business and pressure groups in US for lectures and briefing.

3) Some prominent aides and supporters of PMB will abandon him before the end of this year.

4) Some APC state governors and Senators will demand the resignation of Oshimole. Oshimole will have problem with the presidency.

5) There will be attempt to remove INEC chairman and postpone 2019 election.

7)Some head of Federal Institutions will be removed because of perceived support for ATIKU.

cool Naira will drop further against dollar and crude oil price will slide to less than 60dollars per barrel. Nigeria may slip back to recession before the end of this year.

9) The court will eventually declare PDP the winner of Osun Governorship election.

10) ATIKU will win 2019 election by over 4nillion vote margin. But their will be attempt to declare the election inconclusive. This will be resisted by Nigerians and international community and..... .
Politics › Re: Atiku Currently Leading In A Reno Omokri Presidential Poll By A Milestone. by truthfulparrot(m): 7:33pm On Oct 13, 2018
Well let us be objective. Most of Reno followers don't like Buhari. Nevertheless I can say with confidence that Buhari has lost at least 45% of those that that voted for him in 2015.Most of my friends that voted for PMB in 2015 vowed not to vote for him in 2019.
Integrity is not enough to govern a complex country like Nigeria.
Politics › Re: A Lifeless Evening With Buhari By Fredrick Nwabufo by truthfulparrot(m): 5:55am On Oct 13, 2018
That is what Sarki and Co failed to realise. Sentiment does not make a good leader. Buhari may have integrity but he obviously lack the intellectual capacity to govern Nigeria. PMB is being held hostage by a Cabal who are taking advantage of his limitations to achieve their selfish ends.

I am suspecting Tinubu oo ...It is like he is going to ATIKulate very soon
Politics › Re: Peter Obi Pops Champagne As Atiku Picks Him As Running Mate. Photo by truthfulparrot(m): 7:30pm On Oct 12, 2018
I am from South West and I will still vote for Atiku. The fact that Atiku picked Peter Obi even at the risk of losing favour of some people from the Southwest is an indication that ATIKU is a man that knows his onions and he is not afraid to take difficult decisions that will be in the best interest of the country.
The combination of ATIKU and Peter Obi will translate to great economic boom for Nigeria. ATIKU is a detribalised Nigerian who will ensure all Nigerians irrespective of tribes and region will have a sense of belonging. Feelers from the international community indicates that world leaders are behind ATIKU and he is consulting widely before making any choice.
In the spirit of reconciliation and restructuring, there is a need to give the Igbo a sense of belonging.

This table INEC is shaking has Buhari's hand in it .

They want to deceive Nigerians that INEC is independent but we know all the results coming from them lately are written in Aso rock in Abuja grin
You are wrong. With the emergence of ATIKU and the support from international community, the guys in INEC knows better and they can now act independently without fear of the ruling party. It will be very difficult for PMB or APC to remove the top officers of INEC now
Politics › Re: Governor Amosun And His Loyalists To Dump APC by truthfulparrot(m): 6:14am On Oct 11, 2018
Most of the politicians supporting PMB are only doing so because they are afraid of PMB sending EFCC after them. PMBs aides has been subtutely sabotaging him. As we get closer to 2019, they will boldly show thier true colours.

Inec officials in zamfara can still say there was primaries so dont bother ypourself
I thought you are a political pundit. I am supprised you failed to decern what is happening. Ordinarily the INEC I know before would have find a way out for APC. But the tides has changed. It is like some power blocks in Nigeria and the international community wants PMB out and INEC will be under pressure to do the right thing and not give APC or any party any undue advantage. As it is now like Jega,the INEC chairman will be forming independent.
I voted for PMB but unfortunately he turned out to be a weak president and he allowed unscrupulous elements to highjacked his government. When it comes to politics PMB is naive and that will cause him 2019
Politics › Re: What If Atiku, Presidential Candidate Of The PDP Visits The USA by truthfulparrot(m): 7:00am On Oct 10, 2018
Mark my words. Before the end of this year, the US government will invite ATIKU to America for briefing.
I learnt that some former western and European leaders played a role in his emergence as PDP flag bearer.
Those that PMB sorrounded himself with are the one sabotaging him by thier actions and inactions.
PMB will be shocked in 2019 as his trusted aides will abandon him during Election. Most people like El-Rufai, Rotimi Anarchist, Oshimole, Tinubu etc don't really like PMB and they know he will move against them if he comes back for second term.... Politicians are not worth dying for.

Oshiomole is a very firm character & it is good for the party . Some governors are dictatorial & it is not good for the party
The emergence of ATIKU is now putting APC on its toes. Shehu Sani was promised automatic ticket for loyalty to APC and PMB. If they don,t give him the ticket,it will send a wrong signal to other loyal APC politicians who will feel that PMB will just use them and dump them. PMB will rather sacrifice El-Rufai than jeopardize his chances in 2019

sarrki:
I swear by The Celestial Master Of Universe
Pmb will win 2019 even in Atiku village aside Ipobs enclaves
Let leave politics apart and look at facts and figures. With what happened in Osun and Ekiti, PMB will find it difficult to defeat Atiku in a free and fair election. I was shocked today when I saw some former die-hard PMB supporters from the north celebrating the emergence of Atiku as PDP flag bearer at Sabo market. One of them told me that he will vote for Atiku this time around because things have been hard economically for him since PMB became president.
The divisions between some APC governors and the National Working Committee led by Oshimole is another factor that will affect PMB chances.
To make matter worst some PMB aides are only pretending to support him and will surely sabotage him subtly in 2019. The actions of the Nigeria Police and the DSS is not helping matter as PMB is fast losing support from the international community......As long as there is hunger and suffering in the land, PMB will be shocked that the people he is relying on to win the election will fail him on the election day!
