OF COURSE, THE PRESIDENT SPOKE TO NIGERIANS FROM EAGLE SQUARE!

Contrary to the trending outbursts on the social media that it was "anathema", for President Buhari to have failed to deliver a written speech at the second term low-key swearing-in ceremony at the Eagle Square, Abuja, on Wednesday, 29th May, 2019; the President actually spoke to Nigerians through the journalists who play the critical role of ensuring accountability from government as stipulated in Chapter II Section 22, Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999.

In a question and answer session with the “Watch Dogs” at the Eagle Square, shortly after he took his fresh oath of office, President Buhari made the following statement: “Today is for oath-taking. It has to take place today because it is the constitution. Every other thing including the inauguration speech is moved to June 12th."

THE PRESIDENT SAYS “I AM NO LONGER BABA GO SLOW”!
The uncomplimentary toga of "Baba Go Slow", has been cast away because the President  is set to complete all campaign promises which are ongoing in respect of fool-proof security environment across Nigeria's 774 LGAs, an enviable position among the 20 top global economies by the year 2020, and an intensified war against institutional corruption, in martial "quick time"!

Unperturbed by the pressures generated through a frivolous litigation which sought to annul his second term swearing-in-ceremony because of the pending appeal against his victory at the Appeal Tribunal, the President unequivocally told Nigerians in a 24-minute interview on the NTA Network on 27th May, 2019, that he would initiate new directions, fast-track all government activities, and prod his new management team to keep on their toes for quick results! He equally promised to put up his best performances to justify the new mandate given to him by the electorate - majority of whom are the down-trodden in the political equation!

BUHARI ALSO SPOKE TO NIGERIANS IN A FRESH DECLARATION OF HIS ASSETS!
The President also declared and presented his sworn assets to the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB), before the swearing-in ceremony, according to the law to signify the end of his first four-year term. The assets which showed no significant difference to that of 2015, communicated to Nigerians, no doubt, the lofty ideals of transparent, faithful and righteous leadership qualities of a man of integrity!

According to his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, the number one frugal citizen did not build new houses, neither did he purchase new Shares nor operate new bank accounts at home or abroad. The 2015 declaration consisted of the following items which can still be verified by interested Nigerians according to the media aide: 270 cows, 25 sheep, five horses, birds and economic trees, five houses in Kaduna, Daura, Kano and Abuja, a mud house also in Daura, a plot of land each in Port Harcourt and Kano; an orchard, and some cars.

BUT FIFTH COLUMNISTS SAID THAT THE PRESIDENT FAILED TO DECLARE A NEW 2019 MERCEDES-BENZ S-CLASS S 560 (Maybach), purchased at a cost of USD $ 170 dollars, or N 61.2 million naira (at conversion rate of N 360.00, per dollar), and specially-designed for him, and which was unveiled as he drove into the Eagle Square venue on the 29th May 2019!
We are yet to confirm the veracity of the claim, but assuming that a new vehicle was added to the presidential fleet, did it make the vehicle the president's property?
Nigerians cannot be hoodwinked by the President's detractors who have refused to repent and follow the path of honour to build a brand new Nigeria devoid of the politics of calumny! When the President assumed office in 2015, he refused to purchase new vehicles contrary to requests by advisers but claimed that those he met on ground were still good to go and thereby saved billions of tax payers money which could have gone into corruption and deliberate wastage as was done by the consecutive 16 wasted years of PDP administrations!

THE OPPOSITION PEOPLES DEMOCRATIC PARTY (PDP), said that the President could not deliver a speech because the ruling All Progressives Party (APC), "was overburdened by the guilt of the rigged presidential election", though, government had earlier informed, not only Nigerians, but the entire global community through the erstwhile Minister of Information, that, 29th May, 2019, would be low key and for oath taking only in compliance with the Constitution; while all other inauguration activity - including the President's speech - for a fresh Four-year term would hold on June 12!

Following very wide consultations, President Buhari, announced last year, his decision to change the annual celebration of DEMOCRACY DAY from May 29, to June 12 in commemoration of the June 12,1993, Presidential Election, massively believed to have been won by a business icon,Chiel MKO Abiola, but annulled by the military junta of retired General Ibrahim Babangida and had promptly forwarded a bill to that effect to the National Assembly (NASS), for Constitutional amendment and passage into law!

BECAUSE BUHARI IS CARRYING THE ANOINTING, HIS ENEMIES SHALL BE DASHED INTO PIECES!
"Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. (Psalm 2:1-12). THE LORD HAS SPOKEN: LET NO MAN CONTEND WITH HIM!

THE PRESIDENT IS SWORN IN AGAINST ALL ODDS - HE SHOULD PUT HIS ALL INTO THE NEXT LEVEL!
The President who was sworn in by the Acting Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Tanko Muhammad, took the oath-of-office at a low-key ceremony at the Eagle Square, on the 29th May, 2019, shortly after his Vice, Professor ‘Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, had been sworn in, exuded good health, vigour and vitality, but however, did not give a prepared inaugural address at the ceremony, which according to presidential sources, has been reserved for JUNE 12, 2019, which is the new and constitutionally-enacted Democracy Day!

Expectations of better performances at this NEXT LEVEL as promised by the President himself, are very high, both at home and the Diaspora. President Buhari should emulate South Africa's President CYRIL RAMAPHOSA'S example by swearing in his NEW CABINET, without any delay. Mr. Ramaphosa was sworn in on Saturday 25th May, 2019, and swore in his cabinet ministers on Thursday, 30th May, 2019!

WE believe that President Buhari has already laid a very good foundation to build on without further waste of time and that his new team should hit the ground running to implement the party's three cardinal promises of adequate security, very buoyant economy, intensify the war against institutional corruption, focus more on unemployment and agriculture in order to eradicate poverty and by extension, insurgency, terrorism, banditry and all forms of crimes/violence for the economy to  achieve the year 2020 target date of a place among the first 20 global economies!

In spite of the multi-farious challenges faced by APC Government in the last four years, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), said that Nigeria's economy grew by 1.98 % in 2018, which the body regarded as the nation's fastest pace since RECESSION! IMF also forecast a growth of 2.1 % in 2019, but we believe that the new economic team would perform better than the forecast!
Nigeria's POROUS BORDERS, which are wide open in more than 400 areas of the nation's land mass (and through which terrorists and bandits had infiltrated to kill our people and destroy our collective psyche), MUST be quickly addressed by the President and all measures, including the deployment high technology of CCTV CAMERAS and DRONES, to all States in border areas, to seal these enemies of our beloved nation off permanently!
There is no doubt that the nation's security outfits are seriously overwhelmed, overstretched and heavily overlaboured but they have been very faithful to discharge their onerous duties this far to the best of their abilities BUT they need greater encouragement in additional manpower, sophisticated weapons, more of authentic intelligence information gathering and better WELFARE packages, to build up new incentives and patriotism!

BUHARI SHOULD SIGN THE PEACE CORPS OF NIGERIA (PCN)  BILL NOW!!!
DO WE STILL NEED TO REMIND PRESIDENT BUHARI TO SIGN THE PEACE CORPS OF NIGERIA (PCN), BILL WHICH WAS SUBMITTED BY NASS MONTHS BEFORE HIS FRESH ELECTION INTO LAW? IT IS ON RECORD THAT THE OVER THREE MILLION PATRIOTIC YOUTHS OF THAT NGO, VOTED OVERWHELMINGLY FOR HIS VICTORY!

NOW IS THE TIME TO FAVOUR THESE LEADERS OF TOMORROW BY GIVING THEM IMMEDIATE EMPLOYMENT THROUGH HIS SIGNATURE ON THE BILL AS HE RETURNS FROM OIC OFFICIAL ECONOMIC ASSIGNMENT IN SAUDI ARABIA! THE 8TH NATIONAL ASSEMBLY WILL REMAIN IN SESSION TILL 11TH/12TH JUNE, 2019.

The PCN, members will definitely augment the shortfalls in the strength of the overall security personnel and can be quickly deployed to all sensitive areas (especially, SOFT TARGETS), for information and intelligence gathering duties, including BORDER PATROLS! "A stitch in time saves nine"!
