filled the mind while hearing or reading President Muhammadu Buhari score himself as excellent. Mr. President came away with the ‘A’ for his scorecard, unabashedly claiming: “I have not failed Nigerians”. Haba Mr. Presido!
Buhari came to power for the second time as a civilian president on the mantra of change. At least that was what Nigerians thought they heard him say during electioneering campaigns for the 2015 presidential election. But most Nigerians have found themselves in chains instead. If indeed that was what Buhari promised but Nigerians mistook the same for change, then the President is right. He has not disappointed.
Many Nigerians high and low believed a no-nonsense Buhari should be able to deal with corruption and insecurity. As of 2015, Nigeria was confronted only by the Boko Haram insurgency, which was confined mostly to the Sambisa forest in Borno state, save for some incursions of insurgency in some isolated parts of the country. Farmers-herdsmen debacle was sporadic and also isolated.
Corruption is yet another area where the nation has grown worse in all its ramifications. Impunity and corruption have both grown as correlates and Siamese twins. Much more spectacular cases of corruption have been recorded in the Buhari years with little or no consequence if at all. There are dozens of examples.
To further break it down for Mr. President, here are incontrovertible comparisons between Nigeria he inherited and Nigeria he has transformed.
Then the ultimate; CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele is now tightening the noose on ‘bullion van’ politicians with his naira redesign policy to deal a blow on vote trade. The old notes are expiring in a matter of days as legal tenders and Tinubu says the policy is targeted at stopping him from winning the 2023 presidential election.
Acute and ongoing failure...
I was very sure it wasn't mr simon
