The claim that that in 3 and a half years Buhari has demonstrated clannishness and bigotry is not a statement of fact..
What Buhari chooses to do with appointments not regulated by federal character is his prerogative.

He must b judged strictly on legality nt on subjective morals. A Huge election was won in 2015. Igbos(predominantly) made a choice, nd even shamed kinsmen hu pitched tent with Buhari yet, want 2 reap from where we hv not sown.
As far as appointments regulated by federal character are concerned, Buhari has done right by the law...Name one inconsistent!
The gladiators who won the victory have shared the spoils of war (if i may borrow the greek/roman expression).

The south east has five ministers in his cabinet i e Ngige, Enelamah, Ogbonnaya, Onyeama....what else do you want, for him to take a bride from the southeast?..
Even the so called service chiefs all coming 4rm the north is a lie..we have service chiefs 4rm Cross river,Benue,Ekiti e.g olonisakin.
Over d last 3years,who has been more clannish and bigoted than the igbo against President Buhari..despite his best efforts? They have thrown nothing but pebbles at him ..yet in the highest form of hypocrisy, they falsely accuse him of clannishness and bigotry
Buhari's major promises have been impressively pursued over the last 3years..He campaigned in 3 major points
1.Economy
2. Security
3.Anti-Corruption

ECONOMY
To have kept this country fiscally afloat despite the massive drop in oil revenue and a depleted foreign reserve (which he has now grown) , is a miracle by Nigerian standards.
To have kept this country fiscally afloat despite the massive drop in oil revenue and a depleted foreign reserve (which he has now grown) , is a miracle by Nigerian standards.
To keep allocations and even bailout funds in a govt expenditure driven system given the revenue situation he met is a great feat.
The social investment programs such as the N POWER, school feeding programme, Trader Moni, Ease of doing business executive others, Naira Yuan swap deal(benefitting mostly igbo importers) e.t.c cannot be overlooked.
Today local producers of Rice are reaping from his ban on rice importation, saving the country 5million usd daily and culminating in 11million metric tons of local production..
He did not bring Recession. Recession classically defined, is negative growth in GDP for two consecutive quarters. Nigeria's GDP is oil based therefore subject to positive or negative swing out oil price and production
Aspersions should be cast at the squander mania of years past , most recently 1999-2015 with Aporoximately 800bn usd mismanaged...and not to the man painstakingly cleaning the dirt with a comparatively meagre 49bnoil usd(2017)in revenue for three years..
SECURITY
As at the time Buhari was campaigning in 2014, the bane of Nigeria's security challenge was the Boko Haram menace . They held approximately 14 local govt areas across the northeast and had progressed to the FCT with the Nyanya and Banex bombings.

Today they have been downgraded and reduced to guerilla attacks on soft targets.
The farmer vs Herder conflict in Nigeria is ugly and despicable..and escalated ...however, it is not a Buhari phenomena. A chronological assessment reveals this as true.
If d relative peace being experienced between farmers nd herders in recent months cannot be attributed to its orchestrators being occupied by inner political party wranglings, then credit must go 2 the administration and security agencies 4 calming the storm
On corruption, which is the greatest inhibition to our growth as a people, enormous progress has been made ..unprecedented in Nigeria's recent history..
I will speak more on this when i address the Atiku alternative at a later time..Thank you
