What Nigerians Say About Buhari and his Budget of Corruption in Premium Times 7th Feb 2016 11pm



No Evidence to Probe Former Oil Minister, Diezani – Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari has disclosed that he is unable to prosecute the immediate past Minister of Petroleum Resources, Deizani Alison-Madueke and other petroleum workers over what he tagged lack of evidence.
The President made this known in London, UK, during an exclusive interview with Peter Okwoche of the BBC, after attending a conference on the ongoing Syrian crisis.

Boko Haram Controls Half of Borno, says Senator Baba Kaka Garbai
The Senator representing Borno Central, Baba Kaka Garbai has said that the story that the insurgents have been degraded is nothing but a lie as the terror group still hold on strong to about 50 percent of troubled Borno State.
Garbai who spoke to journalists during a condolence visit to Dalori village where 65 persons were reported killed last week by the "technically defeated" insurgents said, the truth about the accomplishment of the military in Borno State was never truly spoken as the Boko Haram and the Nigerian nation are presently administering about the same territories in the state.UNQUOTE---------NIGERIANS WILL ONE DAY USE THE SAME MOUTH THEY RELIED ON TO INSULT MY GOOD WORKS FOR THE NATION,TO PRAISE MY-HUMBLE SELF-JONATHAN

Please, will the BUHARI presidency ever recover from the mess it is mired? I doubt it.
His media handlers praised him beyond his level of incompetence and now he's toast.

RESTRUCTURE NIGERIA IN LINE WITH THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE 2014 NATIONAL CONFERENCE. THAT IS THE SOLUTION!!!
REMEMBER:
As long the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. Although there WILL be Islamic attacks..
United States -- Muslim 0.6%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1.8%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. There will be MORE attacks at this level
This is happening in:
Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%
From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. There will now be a level of fear from the natural population towards muslims This is occurring in:
France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%
Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris , we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in: Almost DAILY attacks in this range
Guyana -- Muslim 10%
India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 15%
After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:
Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%
At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:
Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
NIGERIA-- Muslim 42.8%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%
From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and ***ya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:
Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:
Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jordan -- Muslim 92%
Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
Palestine -- Muslim 99%
Syria -- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%
100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace. Here there's supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasas are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:
Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
Somalia -- Muslim 100%
Yemen -- Muslim 100%
Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons. Then you have BOKO HARAM, ISIS..Islam with a hall pass!!!

These are my criticisms and I do not need any presidential permission whatsoever to unleash them :
1. The Buhari administration budgeted 39 billion Naira for the propaganda machine led by one Lai Mohammed ,well over the amount budgeted for agriculture in the whole country yet the lip service to the diversification in the economy goes on.
2. The Buhari government budgeted more funds for the Aso-rock medical clinic which takes care of Mohammadu Buhari,his family and cronies more than is budgeted for the whole teaching hospitals in Nigeria put together. As we speak, the president is in Europe getting the best medical attention available to mankind while Nigerians are dying in droves of common curable diseases like Malaria and typhoid.
3. The Buhari administration is planning to expend tens of millions of US dollars in oil exploration in the north where such attempts have clearly failed in the past on a serial basis. This nonsensical venture comes at a time when the over production of oil world wide has caused a crash in crude oil prices and forced many exploration ventures all over the world to be stopped or drastically scaled back. It also underscores the hypocrisy of Mr Buhari who has pledged to diversify the Nigerian economy away from oil and gas.
4. The creation of a ministry of budget and planning was just a ploy in furtherance of the ethnocentric policy of "northernisation" by President Buhari. This President removed budgetry duties from the finance ministry and drafted the current budget with his northern cronies in the so called budget ministry . This selfish master-stroke has made the Yoruba minister of Finance a mere clerk with a big name while the vital aspects of finance has been hijacked by the north.

You made mostly credible arguments and valid points in relation to points 1-3. I partially agree with you on point 4. In respect of point 4, it is true that Budget and fiscal policy now resides with the ministry of national planning. That ministry is headed by Udo Udoma and not a Northerner. Adeosun is in control of federal government finances but does not control macro fiscal policy. She has no power or control over the direction of the wider economy through macro fiscal policy. Her ethnicity should not be an issue here and see no reason why the mention of Northerner or YORUBA was merited here.

Udoma was just an errand boy as far as the budget is concerned.

BUHARI IS A NATIONAL SECURITY RISK ..... BELOW IS COUP SPEECH THAT OVERTHREW BUHARI ON AUGUST 27, 1985 ... WHAT HAS CHANGED?
I, Brigadier Joshua Nimyel Dogonyaro, of the Nigerian Army, hereby make the following declaration on behalf of my colleagues and members of the Nigerian Armed Forces. Fellow country men, the intervention of the military at the end of 1983 was welcomed by the nation with unprecedented enthusiasm. Nigerians were unified in accepting the intervention and looked forward hopefully to progressive changes for the better. Almost two years later, it has become clear that the
fulfillment of expectations is not forthcoming.
Because this generation of Nigerians and indeed future generations have no other country but Nigeria, we could not stay passive and watch a small group of individuals misuse power to the detriment of our national aspirations and interest. No nation can ever achieve meaningful strides in its development where there is an absence of cohesion in the hierarchy of government; where it has become clear that positive action by the policy makers is hindered because as a body it lacks a unity of purpose. It is evident that the nation would be endangered with the risk of continuous misdirection.
We are presently confronted with that danger. In such a situation, if action can be taken to arrest further damage, it should and must be taken. This is precisely what we have done. The Nigerian public has been made to believe that the slow pace of action of the Federal Government headed by Major-General Muhamadu Buhari was due to the enormity of the problems left by the last civilian administration. Although it is true that a lot of problems were left behind by the last civilian government, the real reason, however, for the very slow pace of action is due to lack of unanimity of purpose among the ruling body; subsequently, the business of governance, has gradually been subjected to ill-motivated power play considerations.
The ruling body, the Supreme Military Council, has, therefore, progressively been made redundant by the actions of a select few members charged with the day to day implementation of the SMC’s policies and decision. The concept of collective leadership has been substituted by stubborn and ill-advised unilateral actions, thereby destroying the
principles upon which the government came to power. Any effort made to advise the leadership, met with stubborn resistance and was viewed as a challenge to authority or disloyalty. Thus the scene was being set for systematic elimination of what, was termed oppositions.
All the energies of the rulership were directed at his imaginary opposition rather than to effective leadership. The result of this misdirected effort is now very evident in the country as a whole. The government has started to drift. The economy does not seem to be getting any better as we witness daily increased inflation. The nation’s meager resources are once again being wasted on unproductive ventures. Government has distanced itself from the people and the yearnings and aspirations of the people as constantly reflected in the media have been ignored. This is because a few people have arrogated to themselves the right to make the decisions for the larger part of the ruling body.
All these events have shown that the present composition of our country’s leadership cannot, therefore, justify its continued occupation of that position. Furthermore, the initial objectives and programmes of action which were meant to have been implemented since the ascension to power of the Buhari Administration in January 1984 have been betrayed
and discarded. The present state of uncertainty and stagnation cannot be permitted to degenerate into suppression and retrogression. We feel duty bound to use the resources and means at our disposal to restore hope in the minds of Nigerians and renew aspirations for a better future.
We are no prophets of doom for our beloved country, Nigeria. We, therefore, count on everyone’s cooperation and assistance. I appeal to you, fellow countrymen, particularly my colleagues in arms to refrain from any act that will lead to unnecessary violence and blood shed among us. Rest assured that our action is in the interest of the nation and
the armed forces. In order to enable a new order to be introduced, the following bodies are dissolved forthwith pending further announcements: (a) The Supreme Military Council (b) The Federal Executive Council (c) The National Council of States.
All seaports and airports are closed, all borders remain closed. Finally a dusk to dawn curfew is hereby imposed in Lagos and all state capitals until further notice. All military commanders will ensure effective maintenance of law and order. Further announcements will be made in due course. God bless Nigeria.

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has alleged that his predecessor, Mr Rotimi Amaechi, spent a whopping sum of $150 million dollars to finance the elections of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He said the former governor spent the huge sum between December 1 and 18, 2014 to sponsor the national election campaigns of APC.
The governor made the allegation while speaking at a thanksgiving service held at Saint Peter's Anglican Church, Rumueprikom, Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, on Sunday.
Vowing to recover all the stolen money belonging to the state, he called for a comprehensive fight against corruption and canvassed support for the prosecution of all those who allegedly behind the looting of the state fund. Unquote----Buhari is a curse to Nigeria--
The same Buhari who some few hours ago, blamed poor civil servants who are yet to be paid their Decemeber Salaries for the mess in the budget now says he is open to criticism again via the doors of his GESTAPO DSS?--The song among policiticians in Nigeria today is that, if u want to be free of Buhari Gestapo the EFCC and DSS--join the Apes in APC-in stealing Nigeria dry--Buhari stealing habits can only be comparable to that of Abacha-9jas were fooled by the CIA--into allowing them to impose monsters like Buhari on us-Nothing good has ever come out of his pisoned mouth-it has been one lie or the other--for the past 8 months-

PRESIDENT BUHARI IS NO LONGER CONNECTED to the people. The public grouse over the 2016 budget
is not because it is imperfect; no, but because it is almost senseless. The Buhari 2016 budget is the exact
opposite of perfection, not a grade below perfection, but utterly meaningless. The last thing Nigeria needs
in today's recession, is a budget of ₦1.8 billion for Buhari's food and drinks. The last thing Nigeria needs
in today's recession, is a budget of ₦39billion to run Buhari's office - an amount higher than the budget of the
Ministry of Solid Minerals. The last thing Nigeria needs in today's recession,is a budget of ₦189million to buy
tyres for the cars in Buhari's presidential office. Overall, this is not a budget of CHANGE. It is artifice for THEFT.

It is really sad that Nigeria could descend to this level of madness with a mad Fulani cowhand like Buhari--No President ever, ever attempts to pull his people down when abroad---But Buhari who could not even pass his school cert is calling Nigerians criminals-in London--The very man who stole our 2.8b and has a house in London which he lied about--------now says Nigerians are all thieves! We warned them 9jas but tribal or regional sentiments took the better part of their brains------so helped the CIA to kick Jonathan out--with the aid of the Yorubas in the white house led by Obj at home--Buhari na thief and he should go--period------------Just trying to lie his way through his satanic ideas 4 9ja via the Yorubas-who are prepared to murder their own Mamas ati papas for money. Separation isn te only answer to our woes now that oil is selling at 5 cents per barrel--let my people go!

• "Shocking details emerged from the recently presented 2016 budget that the executive arm of government will spend
the lion share of N5.87 trillion or about 96.5 per cent of the total N6.1 trillion. Then, about N205 billion (or 3.5 per cent)
goes to the other arms of government. The Legislature and the Judiciary will get N115 billion and N90 billion respectively, Vanguard revealed. The breakdown of the budget also indicates that the federal government intends to spend N39 billion
in running the Office of the President with major allocations going to car purchase at N3.9 billion; and, another N189

I have no hope
in President Buhari. He is as bad as the status quo. Nothing he's done in
office points at CHANGE. Buhari just duped Nigerians with mere slogan. If a
budget proposal were deemed as a presidential statement to the Legislature;
vouchsafed as true, Buhari will stand impeachable for fraud. His submitted
education budget shows 10 billion Naira mark higher for civil servants'
salaries in the Ministry of Education than for all parastatals under the same
Ministry of Education. Nobody in the Ministry of Education could justify this
fraud at the Senate Committee hearing. The best course to take now is for the
Senate to reject the useless Buhari 2016 budget in entirety as fraud wrapped in
mystery.

After seven [7[ months without any single policy initiative announced, is it not obvious Buhari is blank?
Buhari just invoked CHANGE for the sound rather than for the meaning and he's made a mess of CHANGE.
What good is criticism, if the person being criticized thinks he needs to give permission to the critics?
