IGNORAMUS.. If you knew anytin bout what is going on in Nigeria currently, you wud hv known easily that MOST of d 17 or so odd Promises you listd above hv either been done or is been done mid-way tru (repeat, MOST of them). If these were the Promises you are holding the President and if your intent was to 'prove' the President has failed in fulfiling them, then you hv Failed WOEFULLY on of yr incredible Ignorance.... Little KIDS

Obiagelli: I watched the score card of the president yesterday and I heard ngozi hammering on 6.5% economic growth and Nigeria becoming the number one point of investment in Africa. My take

Why is the economy not rated on employment rate?
What was the unemployment rate when gej got there and what is now?

Are these people taking us for a ride?

Do they think we are idiots?

What foreign investment are they talking about, where are the investments? I don't know of any company that has built a plant and making exports.
Then you are a Hopeless IGNORAMUS.... I just hate it when ignorant peeps who ought to keep QUITE in public, make Assertions with false confidence

The frustrations of the Jonathan govt and cabinet is becoming evident by the minute. Intolerant they've become that they can't stomach constructive criticism, even be it an aggressive one, there are rules of engagement based on decorum and tact. Abati has fallen to the deepest abyss of rascality(sic) and hooliganism. How did he get to be this way, is a big mystery to me. He's made nonsense of his career and reputation.
Come on, SHUT UP that mouth of yrs tha, joor. This is the CORE of the mata: how can an AU Conference where Nigeria practicali wrote much of d Conference's Agenda (including almost singlehandedly inserting d Saharewi Independence issue back to the main Agenda) be called a 'flop' in respect of Nigeria's participatn by any stretch? How can a Conference in which Nigeria secured the auanimous backing of ALL 53 countries of d AU for its candidancy as a nonPermanent memba of d UN Security Council for anoda 2 yrs afta just leaving that seat just more than a year ago (an UNPRECEDENTED development that hv never occurrd to the best of my knowledge, and one with huge diplomatic advantages for the country going forward, apart from showing sm deft Diplomatic teeth/capacity in murky waters of Africa's continental politics) be said to be a 'flop'? How can an AU conference where Nigeria succeeded in getting endorsements for sm of her candidates for sm Continential and International/UN institutions be called a 'flop'? How can a Conference in which d President was courted by diff personalities and Presidents from both within Africa and Outside (the UN Secretary General, US Sec of State, Presidents of Jamaica, Egypt, Swaziland, etc) such that the President had sm of d busiest side meetings in d conference, be said to be a 'flop', etc etc? How can such a Conference be described as a 'flop' and an 'embarassment' by any sane person just cos of d inability of d President to deliver a mere speech in pleniary cos of sm oda engagements and sm unfortunate miscommunicatns bw officials- a speech that was by d way delivered by d Foreign Minister, a usual diplomatic traditional of many countries in such circumstance, including Nigeria, from time immemorial? Just how? ...Hv you read dat release by Fashakin? Did it mk any bit of sense to you? Couldn't he hv just askd why d President missd that one speech, in stead of engaging in sophistry bout matas that he is obviously severely ignorant of and disgracing himself so doing??.. NO bros, Fashakin got just what he deserved, pressed down, shaken over and well delivered. And for that I thank Abati

Ricky_Ross:

Wetin make the bridge the best in west Africa? How many west African countries have you traveled to? Which group of engineers did the testing/vetting of bridges in west Africa? From tagging this fake bridge suspension bridge to cable bridge, now it is clear people must pay to use it? Which other bridge in west Africa do people pay to use? This is not even a PPP project, the project was done with tax payers money and at the same time people must pay to use it? Bro stop washing your dirty linen in public.

Shame no dey catch you ni? The best road network in Lagos is the Lekki road but it is tolled, nothing is free in Lagos state. In many other Nigerian cities there are far much better roads networks that are constructed by state governors and its 100% free to everyone. See the type of world class roads in Uyo and no one pays to use them. All over the world its only Lagos state that increased school fees by more than 1000%, till date you still defend that stupid decision by the state government. If it were PDP they would be tagged clueless or evil, but since its ACN they are saints.

Look at the world class digital library in Uyo, no one pays to use it, if it were in Lagos it would be tolled as well. Tell me, in which other part of the world is a 1km bridge tooled? I mean a bridge that was built with tax payers money and not JV or PPP?
God bless...

Ease up on the patronizing tone, ok?

Evaluate the article on its own merits, based on the machinations you have observed in recent weeks, and form your own opinion.

This much behooves a commentator like you, who prides himself as a member of the intelligentsia, capisce?
If afta 'evaluating' this article 'in its own merits' and you still find any merits to its arguments, points and/or logic, then you may be even more intellectuali challenged than I thought..

nerodenero: The Leaders from Southsouth rallied-round late Mr.President and together they were able to solve the Niger Delta militancy.It worked because the leaders made conscious effort towards solving the problem in the area.Reverse is the case with the northern leaders.The zeal,ion and desire of the northern leaders to always wanting to rule at all cost will in no distant future become their greatest undoing.It is high time the leaders in the north get wise!

Gbawe: Which mature adult, able to reason functionally, will not it that high recurrent expenditure is the bane of Nigeria's development? What has GEJ done in regards to this problem? I will jog memories here. He said and I quote "leaner government not possible" immediately after being sworn in as President in 2011. In fact GEJ even went further to solidify his position as an enemy of what is best for Nigeria by vengefully disbanding the Presidential advisory committee that had advised him to urgently cut recurrent expenditure, harming Nigeria's progress, by reducing hideous profligacy (ten Airplane Presidential fleet) superfluous and duplicated government offices and general largesse Yet emotional and clannish folks will never have the maturity to recognise this monumental failings against the Nigerian people. A "Performing" President will never be one, with ten airplanes and N1 billion food budget et al , who worsens our biggest problem. As simple and as straightforward as that. Whether clannish and immature folks wish to it it or not, Emeka Anyaoku raise point below about the fundamentally profligate set-up of Nigeria any mature adult will it GEJ is deliberately propping up.

Everything does not begin and end with pointing out what OBJ and Yar Adua did not do, as a cheap attempt by clannish elements, to hide the fact that GEJ is nothing but a failure like those two.
Let us start rising above the petty elements here and begin working with fact-based arguments.

http://timesng.com/news/105324-govts-unwieldy-size-wasteful-expenditure-killing-nigeria-says-emeka-anyaoku.html


Anoda BARE-FACED LIE by a habitual Liar/Propagandist.. Nigeria had had a problem with high Recurrent Expenditure for the longest time, and has been increasing annually for years b4 GEJ became President. As a mata of fact, GEJ inheritd d 2010 budget from Yar'adua with an incredible Recurrent Expenditure of 77.1%!! He had not only STOPPED dis yearly increases but has REVERSED it: he decreasd it from that 77.1% he inherited in 2010 to 74% in 2011, to 71.4% in 2012 and to 68% dis year. He has also reduced each year since he came in, d Deficit per GDP that was also skyrocketing from about 3.4% he inheritd in 2010 to a projected 2.18% dis year (way below the 3% threshold set by d Fiscal Responsibility Bill). Even more remarkably, he has reduced Overhead Cost (which is one of d main indicators of Cost of Governance) from about #531billion in 2010 to about 240bn in 2012- that is he has reduced it by almost HALF!!! All these Cost cutting and Fiscal Displine/Consolidatn, have made the nation's Ratings to be increasd twice in less than 2 yrs by d 2 top Rating Institutions in d world, same time they were downgrading most other more matured economies. But what is even more remarkable, is that he is Managed to do all these without really pushing any massive retrenchment of workers, in fact, he is d President who had implemented certain increases in emulnuments like 18000 minimum wage, Doctors' Special Salary scale, Teacher's Scale, NYSC Alawee increase, etc- that one wud be forced to ask where the Recurrent monies saved hv been going since. GEJ has startd implementing d Recommendatns of d Oronsaye's Committee on rationalisation of d Public Service..... Now, how any person wud then say in public that he

Gbawe: I would like Nairalanders to tell us whether a genuine reform of our oil Industry is not one of the major actions urgently needed to tackle one of the biggest problem of Nigeria. Yet all PDP Presidents, including GEJ, have gone out of their way to avoid this badly needed reform in the Oil sector.

In fact, it can be argued they even abet the problems in the industry. How has GEJ fared in this regard for those who don't do childish sentiments and blind clannish ? Well, the official judgement, by appropriate authority, is laid out below.

Mature posters can judge for themselves whether, after 3 years in power, what is written below is not an indictment of GEJ as an unmitigated failure as per the major problems of Nigeria. Yet same folks who call Fashola "flower-planter" are the ones most ionately touting the "performance" of GEJ when it is crystal clear that GEJ is only engaged in 'window-dressing" of the worst kind since Nigeria's major woes remain just as bad and even worse under GEJ.

@Gbawe, Chief HYPOCRITE, Shut up that yr mouth there. Nigeria just won d award of d BEST IMPLEMENTING country in the word in the Extractive industry by d International Extrative Industry Initiative! That is happening unda GEJ as President. No President in the history of Nigeria has done more in EXPOSING and Opening up the rots in d Oil sector than this President; plus, d critical PIB bill that wud both revolutionize and institutionize TRANSPARENCY in d Oil/Gas Industry has been sent by GEJ ova a year ago to d National Assembly and is bw d 2nd and 3rd Reading state presently (although, yr fellow HYPOCRITES in yr party, ACN, who were dis time last yr constantly making lots of Noise on dis particular bill that GEJ had not sent it to d NA and touting it-rightly- as d most comprehensive way of tackling corruptn and turning around d Oil/Gas industry, hv SUDDENLY kept shut since it was sent; as a mata of fact, many ACN membas in d NA have d with reactionary forces in d north to stall/kill d bill by their nonchalance and/or open hostility to its speedy age)....

That Rail line was conceived since 1978, while actual constructn stated bw 1989-1991, with all previous Govts unable to complete it in more than 30 yrs.

The right thing to have done was to go down the chain of command in the police force. Anybody remotely connected to be rot ought to have been brought before the civil service commission to answer for their incompetence.heads should roll.
I hope you know that those heads that would have to roll will include yr beloved BUHARI?? Hope you know that Buhari, along with practicali every former Nigeria leada, contributd to the TERRIBLE state of what usd to be d Police College structure by not really touching the structure since it was built during d Colonial era? that is until GEJ came along of course...
