mere promise but aganga states in 2011 that importation of fuel will stop by 2014 according to report,mind u we are in 2015.
Promises nke?
A lot of nairalandlers have keyed into the present administration's agricultural plans and are reaping the rewards.
A visit to paddy farms will show you.
A visit to the agric section will convince you.

The video is there for you to watch. The General and Shekarau performed more than Ribadu. If I am to score them, GMB 85% , Shekarau 75% and Ribadu 70%
I just watched it.
They were graded by articulation, content and delivery:
1st Shekarau
2nd Ribadu
3rd Buhari

Don't deceive NL youths who didn't watch it then or remember the ratings after the debate.
Little wonder the APC media team are shielding him from an obvious catastrophe which a debate will bring.
Doubt me? Remember his answer to the question on present administration policy yesterday? .........That is what is termed loose cannon in PR.
Oh and by the way,when I meant Ribadu floored him I mean "ribbed" or "stroked".
PoliticsRe: Video: NN24 2011 Presidential Debate by tswitch: 12:42pm On Feb 03, 2015
Is this not the same debate Ribadu floored the Rtd. General?

Try to keep arguments reasonable and objective please.
PoliticsRe: Muhammadu Buhari Live – How Impressed Was I ? by tswitch: 12:37pm On Feb 03, 2015
@ OP: I scanned through you post and read the last paragaraph. Some conclusions come to mind as your position:
1. You are bias maybe because you are rooting for him- Pa Buhari or it takes very little to impress you........mediocre alert.

2. You are obviously not engligtened or aware of the ongoings in your country (that is assuming you are Nigerian and have the nations's best interest at heart) for you not to be aware that all plans and manifesti Pa Buhari cited/read out are already in progress and most already at advanced stages by the present administration.

I sincerely hope the former is the case as it will be a shame to imagine you being out of touch with present realities.

PoliticsRe: I’ll Ban Importation Of Rice, Tomato If Elected –Buhari by tswitch: 12:18pm On Feb 03, 2015
It is obvious Pa Buhari is not in touch with the
present day Nigeria!
Well General local rice production is about 50% and
the FG saved about #500billion on rice importation
last year. Ask your brothers up north in paddy
farms for details.
The FG annouced just last week they are stopping
the importation of Tomato paste to improve and
increase local capacity.
Do you have an idea of the present administration's
agricultural revolution? What your campaign team
needs to focus on are new ideas and possibilities
instead of flogging the proverbial dead horse.
The truth is the Retired General has nothing new to
offer all he mentioned in yesterday's prepared
speech is already in progress and the only thing the
Nigerian populace would have voted him for was his
"kwaruption" stance which he has quickly pull the
drain on by saying "he wont probe past
governments".
Only advice from a concerned citizen "retire in
peace and stop being drawn by the strings of the
master puppeteer".

boladez:
Hi all, I usually advice that facts should drive conversations. I am not an expert in construction but the 35k kms road network sounded too low for a country like ours.

I checked google and one site says 200k kms and another says 100k

The truth is as many other things in Nigeria, we probably do not have the accurate information.

In my opinion 35k kms is too low to be the total paved road network while the 100k kms tarred by GMB may be exaggerated...what do you know really either may be right!

Google is your friend!

Highways[edit]
Nigeria has the largest road network in West Africa and the second largest south of the Sahara, with roughly 108,000 km of surfaced roads in 1990. However they are poorly maintained and are often cited as a cause for the country’s high rate of traffic fatalities. In 2004 Nigeria’s Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA) began to patch the 32,000-kilometre federal roads network, and in 2005 FERMA initiated a more substantial rehabilitation. The rainy season and poor equipment pose challenges to road maintenance.[1]

Figures from CIA World Factbook (1999):
Total: 194,394 km
paved: 60,068 km (including 1,194 km of expressways)
unpaved: 134,326 km (1998 est.)
note: Some paved roads have lost their asphalt surface and are in very poor condition or have reverted to being gravel roads. Some of the road system is barely usable, especially in high rainfall areas of the south.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Roads - total network (km) in Nigeria
Total road network includes motorways, highways, and main or national roads, secondary or regional roads, and all other roads in a country. A motorway is a road designed and built for motor traffic that separates the traffic flowing in opposite directions.This page has the latest values, historical data, forecasts, charts, statistics, an economic calendar and news for Roads - total network (km) in Nigeria.

You provided the answer to your quetion with the wiki link pasted.
FG roads are about 35,000KM.
Others roads can be state or local government owned.

So going violence is PDP way of showing that they too have supporters in Lagos according to your logic?

The point being made is -APC do not have 100% control of Lagos votes.
No right thinking individual or group condones violence of any form and the issue of violence relating to the aforementioned point is an obvious digression.

Leadership as we all know is by example.
How will a confirmed bigot and non acheiver herald change?
The questions that begs to be answered is what exactly is the "change" he symbolises?

Sir, in your supposed fight against corruption how will you view insolence and flagrant disregard for the laws and statutes of our great nation when you are guilty of same?
Your actions and inactions exhibited by your indifference to the clamour of the millions of Nigerians requesting you fulfill all due diligence and provide your certificate as done by all other presidential aspirants for the past one month has sealed your electoral fate.

That it is okay to ignore the health and moral implications of being a child bride to a man with kids older than they are?
That it is okay to be "yoked" with an illiterate cattle rearer who lacks the basic skills to succeed in his business(150 cows for almost a decade,less than 1million Naira in his account and had to borrow to build a house!-his words not mine)?
That it is okay to associate with criminals and low lifes (the likes of Tinubu and Lia Muhammed et al) and flout every beliefs they stand for all in the quest for elusive power?
Good news!
Mrs Buhari has woken up from her dream to face the cold reality that there is no way her husband will ever win an election in Nigeria!
