The Buhari admin counts exiting a recession that it put
Nigeria into as its greatest achievement of 2017! They are the definition of
cluelessness! We exited recession by growing at 0.5% meanwhile our population
grew by 2.6%. Do the math.
PMB lists stabilizing Naira as one of his achievements!
Naira they met at ₦199 to $1 and is presently ₦365 to $1 has not been
‘stabilized’, it has been murdered! The Naira is in such bad shape that $1 can
give you a Naira for every day of the year.
And how can the propagandist Buhari regime list bumper
harvest as an achievement, when the latest Global Hunger Index published by the
US based International Food Policy Research Institute, indicates that hunger
has increased in Nigeria?
And stating that “the Nigeria Customs Service recorded its
highest-ever revenue collection, crossing the One Trillion Naira (N1,000,000,000)
mark” is nothing short of fraud.
What the Buhari administration and the Nigerian Customs
Service failed to tell Nigerians is that this amount is less than half what the
Nigerian Customs Service generated in 2014 when you factor in the devaluation
of the Naira.
In 2014, Customs generated ₦978 billion. That ₦978 billion
was equivalent to $6.5 billion then. when you convert the ₦1 trillion Customs
generated in 2017 using official rate of 365 Naira to one dollar, that amount
is equivalent to $2.7 billion!
In other words, rather than the lies the Presidency fed
Nigerians, the Nigerian Customs Service generated less than half of what it
generated in 2014 and this fact cannot be hidden with their infantile
propaganda. Please verify what I have said.
You go through these 17 so called achievements and you soon
realize that there is nothing tangible, like a road built or a refinery started
or jobs created. All their farcical ‘achievements’ are non tangibles.
Let me add that Nigeria is broke. The Buhari administration
has borrowed more than any government before it. Our total debt stands today at
slightly over $64 billion. For almost 3 years, they’ve been secretly paying
subsidy.
Finally, the Buhari administration forgot to add that
according to the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics, 10 million Nigerians have lost
their jobs. Perhaps they should have made this their 18th achievement!
