The hallmark of a great leader is getting it right, fort time and all the time.
The whole decisions taken by this APC govt has always been based on policy reversal or outright denial.
If only the govt can focus on what they want to do rather than spend 90% of their limited time looking for who to witch haunt.

Its all about bitterness and vile in their belies I guess once the name of GEJ is mentioned some of them feel like killing themselves. Government is continous, you cannot reinvent the Will.

I want to ask something... the last administration had 42 ministries and presented a budget of 4trillion and this current administration has 24 ministries with a budget of over 6trillion. Am I missing something here? Can someone educate my ignorance?

Bro the previous government never had 42 ministries at any point in time. Buhari has told this lie so much that he believes it. The government had between 26 and 29 ministries with 42 ministers some being ministers of state. Buhari had been operating with 36 ministers so we can say he runs 36 ministries (following in his footsteps). The reduction in 6 is because the 6 slots from the 6 geopolitical zones were not utilized in this administration.
Thank You

The minister of education is an Educationist, hence knows the rudiments so needed in carrying out such appointments. infact, he was a former VC, how come the president acted in error?
I thought the education ministry has a permanent secretary who is very seasoned, how come these ridiculing flaws ain't thrashed before coming to the public. It only shows many don't want the president to succeed, some of those in his cabinet inclusive. He should just be careful except he's acting the sole administrator we use to know him as then.

The education minister is ADAMU raised to power 2

vislabraye:


But the good thing is that he had to swallow his pride to rescind his decision. He must gave been following wrong advice all along because sycophants are all around him.

And how sure are you he is right on his stance as regards the currency because clearly that's the only policy that this administration hasn't done a reversal, but funny enough I still see a reversal in his stance on the currency in time after much losses to the economy and untold hardship to the populace. Then you will ask yourself why we had to pass through all this delays and sufferings if they will eventually do the same (what's the point), just like in the case of the apointment of ministers.
The world is gearing up for another round in oil price fall.

bros, this eating of the humble pie wouldnt have been necessary if Buhari‘s advisers were actually active.
If those in ministry of Education were actually educated on how university system works, there wouldnt have been any need for eating any pie at all.
Some mistakes are silly and avoidable. This thing shouldnt have happend “if“ we have a president who is well educated on “civil“ matters.
Our economy is suffering today because we have a president who nobody advices. All those close to him are either pretenders or they are afraid of telling him the real situation ofthings in Nigeria. Or most probably he doesnt like hearing the truth so they tell him how PDP destroyed Nigeria for 16years but they will not tell him that his government‘s core are made up former PDP members.
All APC media guys should stop decieving Buhari and start writing and WAILING like Dele Momudu & Pat Utomi are wailing now.

No leader any where in the world is above mistake except the Heavenly leaders..............many worst cases have happened in Nigeria and nobody said sorry....illegal withdrawal of Tambuwals' security details as the Speaker HOR, kidnapping of a seating Governor, Chris Ngige, using Federal might, Wike conniving with UNN VC Batho okolo to sack Prof. Enejere without any reason, sack of Former. Enugu deputy Governor simply cos he has a poultry farm in the government house, the list is numerous...........saying sorry to the people He is leading alone is a sign of CHANGE

A saint is not someone who has never sinned but one who realizes his sins, feel sorry and determine never to do it again.

Most of you applauded him here on nairaland even when "wailers" pointed it out that it was a wrong call and very tribalistic in a case where 6 or so of the newly appointed VC's were from Kano.

And how sure are you he is right on his stance as regards the currency because clearly that's the only policy that this administration hasn't done a reversal, but funny enough I still see a reversal in his stance on the currency in time after much losses to the economy and untold hardship to the populace.

Oloshi! same way you gave blanket order to cbn that has crippled the economy. What single policy have you gotten right after 10 solid months

****

A President made an error, he apologised and corrected himself..... what else is he expected to do/say?
Obama made an error on closing Gitmo, till today, its still not closed because no one wants to accept the freed inmates, did they impeach him based on that?
America said "No Boots on ground in Iraq anymore", TODAY, they are sending soldiers back into Iraq, so what's the big deal?

These are just two examples that shows that a "responsive Govt" has the right and duty to "re-examine its policies", in the light of new information!

If your economy is crippled, Go take a swim where the water is very, very deep!
Millions of Nigerians who do legitimate business (aside importing fake and sub-standard goods with our scare forex), are smiling.
You can bet on that.

"These APC rubbish has exposed many Nigerians for the soulless hypocrites they really are.
During GEJ tenure, fuel scarcity was seen as a sign of ineptitude on the part of Jonathan but today under Buhari, fuel scarcity has suddenly become the fault of oil marketers. We now sleep at the filling station just to buy fuel and kerosene at exorbitant prices if you are lucky to even get the products at all.
During GEJ tenure, we swore we would never sleep until we # bringbackourgirls . Today, we no longer wanna bring them back. Aunty Oby has since retired. Govt is no longer a continuum, you know.
Back then, under GEJ, once boko haram strikes, we would call for Jonathan's head but today, we now dismiss victims of boko haram attack as 'soft targets'. Hearing us call them 'soft targets', you would be forgiven to think those innocent victims weren't Nigerians who deserve protection from their own govt. Fulani terrorists now kill and maim Nigerians while we limit the blame on just the security agencies alone forgetting that President Buhari is the man we employed to keep us safe.
Today, some of my atheist friends who almost lynched Jonathan for praying to a wall in Israel then are now the ones reminding me that President Buhari had a right to practice his religion when I drew their attention to the photo of him (Buhari) praying in Saudi Arabia dressed like my 'Ogboni' uncle.
I remember how we almost sent 'Amadioha' after Jonathan for attending a campaign rally in kano less than 24 hours after dozens were killed in Nyanya bomb blast. But when hundreds of people mostly women and children were burnt alive in
# Dalori by boko haram, the next day, Buhari was laughing, dancing and cutting cake in Ogun state, yet, there was no outrage.
If you are among those now celebrating all the things you frowned at under Jonathan, it is high time you had a one-on-one with your conscience.
Supporting your President and urging him on even when it is very clear that he is progressing in error, is not you being a patriotic citizen. That is you being a hopeless pathetic soulless sycophant!"

Nice job. I. Concur. Zombies won't admire this at all.

He had to swallow his pride. It was not out of inherent virtures in him.
Also, there is zero indication that his executive decisions and this particular decision have come from the advice of "sycophants" around him

And 500bn budget for the poor without any ministry to administer it the poor... Bonanza time for cronies and financiers

when a leader claims he knows it all. dats how he will keep making mistakes. always seek advice before taking action, it will help reduce d mistakes u will make.

Very good point.
In a sane clime, the education minister would have since resigned or gt fired before the president ever comes down this low to lick his vomit! The president was obviously misled by the education minister filled with religious and tribal zeal that he quickly replaced all 12 VCs with his friends from from ABU. That what happens when one is tunnel visioned.

[size=13pt]The reason these people don't get to PMB is because PMB runs the government like a medieval court.
Like the king, access to whom is controlled by some, and to whom aids and advisers do not have the freedom of opinion that professionals should have.

I got an insight into this when Pat Utomi on NTA's One on One said that this is what even some of his northern friends have told him - The medieval court system.

Think about a tyrant man and his family. Advice and suggestions are only meekly (probably timidly) given by his kids, and that is if they even know what he wants to do before he does it or even lets them in the know.

It's really not a dignifying condition under which a professional should work, which is why I particularly feel for the finance minister as I think we may not ever really get to experience the true signature of her brains or personal style on her office.
Her appointment was an opportunity for her to announce that to the world.[/size]

That's what you get your decision is clouded with ethnic sentiment. Trust me someone with a good educational background wouldn't have made such mistake.

eLcastro:
At this point of the game..within buhari.,he must be hailin GEJ on how he ruled Nigeria...

Exactly sir.

Buhari knows that in 100 yrs, he can never ever measure up.
That's why he is still campaigning against Jonathan 12 months after he won the election.

LEAGUE OF IGNORANTS!

I remember vividly when the decision was first made, all the zombies came out and applauded the decision just because of their hatred for GEJ. Now the decision has been rescinded and they are quick to also applaud PMB again. Confused and direction less government with confused followers. How can a President of a country just wake up and make harsh decisions without even consulting the Constitution with all the advisers at his disposal and even with the Vice President being a Professor of Law. Just imagine Obama coming in to scrap all the policies of George Bush.

I agree 100% .

This the main problem with Buhari.

No minister or adviser can shine under him.
The man is a relic from the medieval era , who is aversive to modern trends and thought processes.

He has taken on the role of the petroleum minister, the finance minister, the CBN governor and the foreign minister, even dough he doesn't understand how these ministries operate in a modern and complex nation.

The result is confusion all over.

This our president self. He can never be stable. Always behaving liks NEPA.

I weep for My country Nigeria.

Its a clear case of the mouth being faster than the brain.

another idiot.

All those who still say good things about Jonathan or compare him with Buhari are imbeciles and destined for hell fire! My anger is borne out of Jonathan's unconcerned attitude to many glaring cases of primitive corruption under his watch, especially the $2.1 billion arms scam, fuel subsidy rip-off and immigration job scam by Abba Moro in which many souls perished!! God is really angry with him and his sympathizers!!!

How would he know when he did not attend university rather a school set owner... Back and forth government...

If at all this daft and dumb man had allowed Osibanjo to guide him,things would have been a little bit different-

That's how he'll sell this country one day and be asking for refund afterwards.
