CITIZENS SCORECARD OF BUHARI: 2015- 2023. (FINAL SCORE CARD).TOO LATE FOR DAMAGE CONTROL BY BUHARI AND HIS UNDERTAKERS!
Committed democrats have scored the two-term eight-year administration of retired Major General Muhammadu Buhari as a complete failure in view of total collapse in political/socio-economic management of the Nigerian Project traced to persistent insecurities which intensified and could neither be tamed nor defeated! Colossal damage to the psyche of the entire population due to a corruption-driven economy and very volatile inflation of food, goods and
services increased, enlarged and aggravated the sufferings of the downtrodden without ceasing!
BUT BUHARI HAD A FORE-KNOWLEDGE OF THE ENTIRE POLITICAL/ECONOMIC/ INSECURITIES SCENARIO OF THE COUNTRY AND BOASTED THAT HE WAS CAPABLE AND DETERMINED TO PROFFER PERMANENT SOLUTIONS AS A MESSIAH! He wasted no time to contest from 2003-2015 before he succeeded in his FOURTH attempt to become President of Nigeria. Following his eight-year abysmal failure, Nigerians can now remember that as a COUPIST Military Head of State from 31st December 1983 - 24th August 1985 whose tenure was short-lived, his DESPERATION was an ego contest between him and Olusegun Obasanjo who enjoyed dual status of military/democratic presidency!
BUT he disappointed over 200 million population of Nigerians and still has the impunity to allot himself a Pass Mark!
PROPAGANDA BOOKS PUBLICATION; FRENZIED COMMISSIONING OF CAPITAL PROJECTS TO COVER-UP FOR A PSEUDO DEMOCRAT!
1) Two Books written by Buhari's Apologists - an Expatriate Journalist and a Nigerian Senator debuted in Abuja Friday 19th May 2023, as the first step in DAMAGE CONTROL PROCESS!
2) The out-going President conspicuously took the centre stage at the commissioning of DANGOTE REFINERY - a private enterprise on 22nd May 2023, in Lekki. When in full operation it is expected to have the capacity to process about 650,000 barrels by day of crude oil making it the largest single train refinery in the world angle the old general is taking the glory for this achievement which a fellow Nigerian embarked upon since 1978 as a young man full of vision!
3) The President on Tuesday 23rd May 2023 commissioned via Zoom, the SECOND Niger 1.6 KM BRIDGE linking Asaba, Delta State with Onitsha, Anambra State and other Southeast States. The bridge was named Muhammadu BUHARI BRIDGE although he claimed he was not privy to that decision!
4) HE CLAIMED THAT THE BRIDGE AND ANOTHER PROJECT BEING COMMISSIONED SYMBOLISED HIS ADMINISTRATION'S SHARP FOCUS ON DELIVERING PROSPERITY ACROSS THE COUNTRY! True or False?
Presidential Zoom Speech At The Bridge Commission.
"I am honoured to hand over this bridge and other projects for public use. The bridge will reduce travel time and promote economic activities in the South East, South South and other parts of the country.
"Those crossing the old Niger Bridge will no longer experience gridlock as it will help to improve the socio-economic activities of the South East.
"IN EIGHT YEARS, I AM PROUD TO SAY THAT WE HAVE DEVELOPED NIGERIA'S STOCK OF INFRASTRUCTURE OF GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT FROM ABOUT 20% TO OVER 40% AND THAT IS NOT A SMALL UNDERTAKING."
Minister of Works, Babatunde Fashola, who also joined the event via zoom said:
"This is a clear case of how infrastructure supports the people. It will take only a few minutes to cross the bridge of approximately 1.5 km travel time is reduced by 50%.
"By this bridge various properties in the area have appreciated."
Whatever Buhari and his Kitchen Cabinet may claim as success of Eight Years of a WOEFUL ADMINISTRATION IS BUT A DROP IN THE OCEAN compared to the myriads of persistent insecurities that have pervaded the entire Nation from his STARTING TO FINISHING POINTS!
According to his statement, they were UNDERTAKERS NOT DEVELOPERS!!!
EXCERPTS OF AN ARTICLE PUBLISHED BY FOREIGN JOURNALIST TITLED "SERVICE CHIEFS AND HEADS," ANTONY GOLDMAN ON 17TH JULY 2015, WHEN MUHAMMADU BUHARI EVENTUALLY CLINCHED THE PRESIDENTIAL SLOT!
"When Muhammadu Buhari swept to power in March’s historic elections, it was on a platform that promised change, security and an end to corruption. In the aftermath of his victory, he met quickly with the leaders of neighboring states and reached out to leaders of the G7, seeking their support and promising new momentum to end the Islamist terror that has gripped many parts of North East Nigeria since 2010. "No part of the country voted more emphatically for Buhari than the North East, where he trounced the incumbent, Goodluck Jonathan, by a margin of nine to one. Where Jonathan was seen as a weak, indecisive and remote figure, the North East saw in Buhari a former soldier pained by the scale of the violence and the distortion of the faith from which Boko Haram insurgents claimed inspiration. "Since Buhari’s inauguration on 29 May, more than a thousand civilians have been killed in a wave of suicide bombing and ambushes. In a particularly bloody Ramadan that appeared to suggest some level of co-ordination with allies in Islamic State, attacks have taken place as far south as Jos and in Zaria and Kano, to the west of the core areas of the insurgency.
"The setbacks appeared to represent a loss of momentum on the part of the Nigerian armed forces and allies from Chad, Cameroon and Niger, who in a three-month offensive launched in February this year helped recapture many of the towns and villages taken by Boko Haram across Borno and Adamawa states in its lightning campaign in late 2014. "Even supporters of Buhari expressed concern about apparent delays in filling key appointments. There were reports of a dip in morale because of the failure to replace service chiefs and heads of other security agencies. Troops remained in barracks as Boko Haram was reported to be regrouping in the Sambisa forest and other remote parts of the North East."
BUHARI HAS FAILED TO FIX NIGERIA!
After eight years Antony has written a "Nunc Dimittus" titled “STATE OF REPAIR : HOW MUHAMMADU BUHARI TRIED TO CHANGE NIGERIA FOR GOOD", to buttress the CONCENSUS that; BUHARI WAS NOT THE EXPECTED MESSIAH AFTER ALL! QED!
According to ex-General Obasanjo, Buhari had a hidden agenda to "ISLAMIZE AND FULANIZE NIGERIA"
BUHARI WOULD BE REMEMBERED FOR THE FOLLOWING DISCREPANCIES:
1) POLLUTING NIGERIAN ROADS WITH COWS, AND COW DUNGS BY CLAIMING EXISTENCE OF OLD CATTLE GRAZING ROUTES IN NIGERIA & REJECTING MODERN RANCHING!
2) FAILING TO DEFEAT BOKO HARAM, TERRORISTS WHO STILL OCCUPY SEVERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREAS IN THE NORTH EAST/WEST GEO-POLITICAL ZONES CONTRARY TO HIS MANIFESTO PROMISES!
3) UNABLE TO STOP KIDNAPPING, GUNMEN/BANDITRY ATTACKS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY!
4) TURNED BLIND EYE TO INCESSANT ARMED FULANI HERDSMEN/FARMERS BLOODY CLASHES WHICH WAS COMMONPLACE AND ALWAYS CLAIMED INNOCENT LIVES!
5) UNABLE TO STOP BOKO HARAM TERRORISTS WHO UNLEASHED MAYHEM ON STRATEGIC GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS/INFRASTRUCTURES AND THREATENED TO KIDNAP HIM FROM THE STATE HOUSE ASO VILLA!
6) STUBBORNLY REFUSED TO REPLACE TIRED SERVICE CHIEFS IN SPITE OF PUBLIC OUTCRY OF ALMOST TWO YEARS!
7) ALL OF THE FOLLOWING NEGATIVE INTERNATIONAL RATINGS AND INDEXES IN RESPECT OF NIGERIA BEING: a. POVERTY CAPITAL, b. MOST-ADDICTED BORROWER & CORRUPT COUNTRY, c. MOST INSECURE COUNTRY, d. DIRTIEST COUNTRY, d. COUNTRY WITH THE HIGHEST RATE OF CHILD/MATERNAL MORTALITY, e. COUNTRY WITH THE HIGHEST RATE OF OUT-OF-SCHOOL CHILDREN, f. COUNTRY WITH THE MOST CORRUPT CIVIL SERVICE AND LEGISLATORS ETC; STUCK LIKE A CANCEROUS PLAGUE ON THE NATION THROUGHOUT GENERAL BUHARI'S TENURE!
But he was complacent and complicit for the reasons of his believe in FEUDALISM, OLIGARCHY, NEPOTISM, TRIBALISM, RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY, AND TRADITION TO THE CORE! But he now craves to be celebrated as a "REFORMED DEMOCRAT" at his Departure Lounge! "Tufiakwa!"
THIS IS THE WORST INSULT TO THE SENSIBILITIES OF NIGERIANS! IT IS ANATHEMA!
WITH PATIENCE WATER WILL COOK THE STONE!
Patriotic Nigerians and true Democrats should wait patiently for 'Bola Ahmed Tinubu who will take over the mantle of leadership of Nigeria from Monday 29th May 2023 to carry out the mandate of Nigerians for A UNICAMERAL PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT AND ALSO GOD'S COMMANDMENT WHICH MUST BE ACTUALIZED WITHIN HIS SIX MONTHS IN OFFICE! At the close of the Regimental Dinner in honour of President Muhammadu Buhari coupled with the commissioning of the Armed Forces of Nigeria Officers Mess on 23rd May 2023 the old General in his closing speech said he could hardly wait for the remaining SIX DAYS TO GET OUT OF OFFICE!
With the EXIT of retired Major General Buhari, the ERA OF MILITARY PRESIDENCY is over for good in Nigeria!
IT'S TIME FOR A FRESH BREATH OF AIR!
