Good day Nairalanders,

"Having been reading a lot of comments on this forum about the on-going political campaign, I decided to do a summary of Mohammed Buhari's history in Politics so nairalanders are more enlightened. Since now we clearly know the candidates for next year... GEJ and GMB!!


"Muhammadu Buhari (born December 17, 1942) is a Nigerian politician and a retired Major General in the Nigerian Army who was the military ruler of Nigeria from December 31, 1983 to August 27, 1985. The term Buharism is ascribed to the Buhari military government. He also ran unsuccessfully for the office of the President of Nigeria in the 2003, 2007 and 2011 elections. His ethnic background is Fulani, and his faith is Islam; he is a native of Daura in Katsina State of Nigeria.


His actions towards discipline

"His administration subsequently initiated a public campaign against indiscipline known as "War Against Indiscipline" (WAI). Aspects of this campaign included public humiliation of civil servants who arrived late for work whilst guards were armed with whips to ensure orderly queues at bus stops


His actions towards economic stability

"His government is revered for its ability to keep the country afloat by making progress through sheer economic ingenuity even when it rejected IMF loan and refused to adopt IMF conditionalities to devalue the Naira. His government is praised for its gain in reducing inflation by refusing to devalue the nation's currency, the Nigerian Naira, curbing imports of needless goods, curtailing oil theft and using counter trade policy to barter seized illegally bunkered crude oil for needful goods like machineries, enabling it to export above its OPEC quota



His actions towards corruption

"Corruption was said to have been at its lowest ebb in the Buhari/Idiagbon regime), Buhari's political notion was based on an anti-corruption platform and struggled to remove immunity protections from government officials

"Buhari's admirers believe that he was overthrown by corrupt elements in his government who were afraid of being brought to justice as his policies were beginning to yield tangible dividends in terms of public discipline, curbing corruption, lowering inflation, enhancing workforce and improving productivity
The public fully backed their assault on the corrupt elite, if not their methods. The trials and WAI (War against Indicipline) campaign also had a psychological impact on other “don’t know how he got rich” individuals in Nigeria. For the first time in Nigeria’s history it became unwise for those with ill gotten to flaunt their wealth – for fear of attracting the attention of Buhari’s anti-corruption drive.
Among those convicted were prominent politicians such as Anthony Enahoro and Jim Nwobodo. The tribunals effectively put Nigeria’s political elite in jail.



Later years as PTF Chairman

"Buhari served as the Chairman of the Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF), a body created by the government of General Abacha, and funded from the revenue generated by the increase in price of petroleum products, to pursue developmental projects around the country. A 1998 report in New African praised the PTF under Buhari for its transparency, calling it a rare "success story"


His view on Bokoharam

"In May 2014, in the wake of the 2014 Chibok kidnapping, Buhari strongly denounced the Boko Haram insurgency. He "urged Nigerians to put aside politics and all other divisions to crush the insurgency he said is fanned by mindless bigots masquerading as Muslims"


Buharism
"Buharism rejected the forceful approach of the Washington Consensus, but rather held that for a crisis-wrecked country to successfully improve its Balance of Payments through devaluation, there must first exist a condition that the price of every country’s export is denominated in its own currency. As such condition do not exist, Buharism believed that, for any country that Washington Consensus conditions do not exist clearly enough, there are alternate and superior approaches to solving the problem of its economic crisis. Therefore, instead of applying devaluation to get the then crisis-wrecked Economy of Nigeria back on track, Buharism rather employed a policy of curbing imports of needless goods, curtailing oil theft and improving exports through counter trade policy of bartering seized illegally bunkered crude oil for needful goods like machineries, enabling it to export above its OPEC quota"

Please can someone explain these issues that usually arise on almost every Nairaland Thread

1. First to comment (please what so special about commenting first? Is it a ritual)

2. Space booked (Please what does this term mean)

3. Comments about France (?)

4. Being on "front page" (?)

Uzeustace:
Well, I have not heard from them ohhh, I checked it out and they said if you do not receive a reply after 31st December, it means you are not been considered for the job! So 1 month to know wetin dey go happen...

Abi ooo.. 4 weeks left

I got the sms.....bt no email yet

Lolol... This world gets more wired day by day. I wonderr how the private part of the dolls wuld be...

Nice one..... Next Quack Architects

Got an invite from Philips Co also

My friend got the email also.

I am also trying to get more info on the subject.

WOO.. I am really learning a lot from this thread... funny..

I actually thought OP meant Body odour... It was until i started to read peoples responses I knew what he meant

Also funny is the number of people viewing this thread at the moment. .. Over 150 Guests and 100 Nairaland members.

My suggestions.
1. Everything starts from the inside.... eat healthy, take anti-biotics,, drink LOTS of water,, take good care of your body
2. Urgently see a female doctor you can relate to
3. Track your history.. When exactly did the odour start? What changes happened in your life at that point in time? This can help you find out the source of the problem.
4. When you sleep at night, make sure that area is free of heat, and has access to air.
5. Bath often ( my GF has her bath EVERY NIGHT, she can count how many times she has missed a night bath in her life lol)
6. I would suggest you stop eating food such as Garlic, Ginger, for the mean time. Because when we eat them, our body releases the waste via our pores and secretion (that's why Indians and Chinese smell a certain way when using the gym..lol)

Hope she gets through this (including other people,boys and girls going through similar issues)

and God bless you.

Thank you.

Anytime i admire the large area of road in the United States of America, I wonder if it is hard to achieve that quality of construction even in a small Kilometer here in Nigeria. Is it hard. Cant we just do it right for once.

I am going to do a documented post of a road around my area lekki Ikate area.. In the past 1 year, that particular road has been repaired/patched up 7 TIMES!!!!!!... Like seriously... Is it that difficult??

They patch up today,,,

Rain falls tomorrow,

Pot-holes start to form..

The so-called authorities wait for the pot-holes to fully develop, and spoil residents vehicles,,,,

Then they come with their equipments (usually on a work day, and cause HUGE TRAFFIC!!!![/b])

Then they patch up again,,,, ...............................The viscous cycle continues....................................

I am currently taking pictures of the development of the condition of the road and the pot-holes for documentation and to show the stupidity in the manner of approach those in charge deploy.

Hi wale, i wrote the online test , infact, i wrote 2 test , project coordinator and operations manager , i want to know if anybody had same experience...though i have not heard from them ...

@Truerebel

I think you should ensure new and current staff in the future get to sign a contract that prevents them from tarnishing the organizations image even after leaving the company. That way stuffs like this wouldn't surface...Running a company isn't easy.

Please what is PMed

Any update from anyone

cookie27:
The no-carb diet is actually very possible. I used it to lose about 27kg of fat. At my heaviest, I was 88kg. Now, i'm around 60-61kg.

Nice achievement.. Any pictures?

cookie27:
Beans are a heavy source of carbs even if everyone thinks they are proteinous. They have more carbs than proteins.

ohh I didnt know this.

Best news i have gotten from Nairaland in a long time!!!!... Please lets ensure this Bill gets passed ASAP!!!!!! Yes we know Nigeria is a consumer nation, but the way these foreign companies milk us is alarming!!!!. Next up Julius Berger, Huawie, SPAR, PayPAL, MTN, Aviation companies...etc..

Lilimax:
But Akamu contains carbohydrate

True... Its really hard to do a strictly no-Carbs diet here in Naija. If you are able to pull it off, i think you would have to spend a lot of money.

moca:
Which one is fried dodo? Is that akara?

Dodo is also called plantain..

Though i can now see that any thing that's "Fried" is a no-go area for a no-carbs diet
