Not a bad advice.

Dewze:
You would want PMS to be costlier in the North than in the South? That itself sounds sectional.

Whynoetruth and you peeparty,

Sir I understand, let's wait till he finish the appointments. As for me, I don't if Buhari appoints anybody from Edo, all I want is he work in Edo. For most part of GEJ tenure, the COS was Oghiadomen (from by tribe), how did it affect the common Edo man? Tony Aneni and Onolememen were minister of works from Edo states, you need to see the state of our federal roads.
All I want for my state is development. If Buhari don't do it, we will meet in 2019.

aristosoft:
I said this during election and permit me to say that again.

There were two parties. One has no agenda. The other one's agenda is to destroy the agenda of the agendaless one.

Hence, APC and PDP, figure out which is which among them.

oluamid:
Chisos! I can't believe my eyes! The OP has only gone short of calling GEJ the promised messiah. Why, oh why, would anyone compare a govt of 3 months and that of 6 years in terms of appointments.

It's simple logic and even experience has shown that most of the appointments Buhari has made will still be changed. There will be a lot of chopping and changing in the course of his 4 years tenure. Besides, it's only 40 appointments out of which many are of the President's personal team. Have some patience.

Who is the bigot here? The president who is yet to make his full complement of appointments or the 'critics' who are against the small number of appointments made only because 'their sons/daughters' are yet to be appointed and not because they question the competence of the appointees?

When GEJ was in power it wasn't every one of the over 400 tribes in the country that made it into his cabinet. I wonder why we expect Buhari to do the impossible.

Criticize but be objective. The APC/GEJ's critics didn't start their criticism of GEJ on the first day of his administration, they waited until they had a clearer picture of his agenda and where he's headed. Let's give the president a benefit of our doubts.

If the president fails to deliver we'll hold him to account, however, let's allow him to attempt his best first. Don't jump the horse.

Ciao.

Nigeria's challenge is more in the structure, we operating in a wrong structure, Hausa and Yoruba know it very well but because they are benefiting from it they cannot do anything

IsraeliAIRFORCE:

agabaI23:
Sorry I had to quote everything because everything you wrote is on the money. We have been wondering. But I predicted this trend long ago. I told whoever wanted to hear that Tinubu and the rest would be sidelined and the Kano-Katsina axis will assume control. It happened with YarAdua not long ago. OBJ who installed him was sent to the trash can and UMYA went on like he was instructed to deconstruct anything OBJ left behind. The wants power but have no idea what to do with power for the benefit of the people. The reason is that all the know about leadership is to be worshiped while they hand out crumbs to their followers without any effort to develop or make them have a mind if their own.

nduchucks:
As for me and my household, we'd rather have the entire appointments made by the President offered to people from a single state, town, or even hamlet, if the end result reduces the level of corruption by only 20% and results in a significant reduction of looting with impunity.

Any sane human being should not wish the kind of looting of the treasuries to the detriment of current and generations unborn, upon this great country.

kenny987:
Yes, a clear sign of one of those that sit on the truth and try to suppress it. When it bites them in the arse and comes to light all they can do is scream and yell like banshees. It is ur mother, father and all u hold dear that are silly idiots.

How dare u unfold those diseased and mangled, leprous fingers of yours to mention my moniker to type rubbish? In that your almajiri school under tree were u not taught to engage people with courtesy? Better return whatever device u are using to the owner and stop stealing! U hate truth and it will continue to find u out! Uncircumcised oaf!

PUSH1:
How can an economy someone built in 6 years crumble in just 3 month. Nigeria youths be wise.

bashsani:
Wow! A nice theory but not a fact

histemple:
The APC is presently working with Jonathan's policies and following his recommendations religiously.

I recall when former president Goodluck Ebele Jonathan anounced that Nigeria needed the cooperation of neighbouring countries to fight Boko Haram whose operations transcends borders, Buhari / APC called him names and said he was clueless. But that was Buhari's first assignment upon resumption of office.

The only thing I like about Buhari is sincerity. While his party men are busy ascribing Jonathan's achievements in power, agricultural sector etc to him, Buhari shocked them by declaring that they were the manifestations of GEJ'S efforts, as he was yet to start working.

NovusHomo:
You are doing your best to sound like an intellectual but your logic is out of this world. So, since jail terms have not stopped armed robbers, looters should not be jailed and, of course, looting should continue. This certainly explains GEJ's mindset. Thanks for reminding us.

Truckpusher:
This your thread calls for a solemn reflection of what we believe as a people and the general attitude of the people towards the leadership.

The APC sold Nigerians a dummy and every Tom,Dick and Harry across the geopolitical zones of this country believed in it or partially believed in it but again they should have been wiser to know that the moment a supposedly good man starts wining and dining with thieves and looters then there must be a connection or someone is simply using someone to achieve his dreams and aspirations. But I put it to you that if not for the colossal waste and absolute nonchalant attitude of the PDP ,Nigerians wouldn't have listened to Buhari and his bunch of criminals that he rode on their backs to mount the stool of leadership just to propagate his islamaofacist ideology and egocentric nature.
The PDP had it all but greed , selfishness and highhandedness brought them to where they are right now - It is just unfortunate that at a point when the most evil party lost power was a time when one good man was around in the person of Jonathan - But again when your family has a bad name it rubs on every child that is born into that household irrespective of his or her natural mindset and outlook towards life.
Nigerians will pay for our impatient nature which was totally necessary at the time we became impatient and that doesn't change the fact that Buhari is a mistake.

phyllosilicate:
I am not bias, Jonathan first chief of staff is from my tribe. Let's be fair to both Buhari and Gej. Can you list the hierarchy under Buhari, the service chiefs, NSA, SSG and COF and AGF compare them with that of Jonathan appointments as at 2011.
.
+Let's us not go into the judiciary and EFCC yet as Buhari hasn't appointed new ones.

phyllosilicate:
why are you toeing the line of insults. Here is the hierarchy under Jonathan.
President - Ijaw
Vice president - hausa
Senate President - Idoma
Speaker - Hausa
Deputy senate president - Igbo
Deputy speaker - Igbo
Secretary to the state Government Igbo
.
Also

The coordinating Minister/ minister of finance - Igbo
Minister of Power - Igbo
Minister of Aviation - Igbo
Minister of Health - Igbo

.
Then you saw nothing wrong.

chiefmidwife:
Nigerians are educated illiterate..hw can a reasonable person vote for an extremist and dictator, is it because we hv no other good candidate from north
We will live with our mistake according to FFK
Also the people giving Buhari bad advice for northern agender are Nasir Elrufai,Emir of Kano,Tambuwal ACF,and NEF

IdisuleOurOwn:
Of course, you did make a promise.
The promise was that whenever you open a wailing thread, you will invite me to come and laugh at your wailing.


Freemanan just give you a tip of an iceberg.

tpiander:
what's the meaning of the thread title?

phyllosilicate:
when the deputy senate president, deputy speaker, secretary to state government, minister of finance, minister of power were Igbos there was no problem.

Freemanan:
Your logic can be stunning when it comes to analyzing APC and their utterances. Saying campaign promises can't be fulfilled because of previous administration loot and malady is simple logic for all to understand, so it beats me that you can't put your intelligence at play on this. Well Maybe because It's APC...

Let me put it for you in layman language then.

SEE EHN, THE PAST GOVERNMENT OF GOODLUCK JONATHAN AND HIM PREDECESSORS TIFF MONEY AND MAKE THE COUNTRY SCATTER TO THE EXTENT SAY BUHARI NEVER EVEN START HIS OWN PROMISES. HE IS BUILDING AND REPAIRING THE YAMA YAMA WEY HIM MEET, SO AFTER THEN, HE WILL START. SO NA WETIN THE STATEMENT MEAN BE THAT.


IF YOU STILL WANNA CREATE A THREAD ON THIS, THEN YOU NEED JESUS OR EXTRA TERRESTRIAL HELP. ADIOS AMIGOS..

bakila:
Will you in truth to your conscience say that Jonathan and his cohorts did not steal? Who are you to stop the government from informing the citizens the state of their country as managed or mismanage by Jonathan. Nigerians have begun to see light, the days of PDP's impunity to its members and Nigerians is the last chapter of our history. State you views as loud as you can as the opposition, Nigerians don dey see light, if you wail with you eye closed na you sabi.
