BOOM😭😭

Whenever Shagari presented his Budget, the following day, Awolowo would call a Press Conference where he would praise the parts of the budget that are good, criticize the parts that are bad and proffer alternatives....

Awolowo would never say "The Budget is a total

disaster" like Wailers say today..... That's why Shagari considered it worthy to give Awolowo GCFR for his brilliant contributions to the nation even as Opposition Leader!!!
My brother, Wilfred Hemen Martins Ityòikyaa-Nyajo had these to say to some wailers -

Oga, "when a country

is good.." When was the last time Nigeria was good? Goodluck Ebele Jonathan squandered Nigeria's oil wealth and made multi billionaires out of his wife and ministers at the expense of infrastructure, depleting in the process, even money Ngozi Okonjo Iweala had fought hard to save

under the Sovereign Wealth Fund. GEJ did not bequeath any country to PMB. PMB came with his spartan life to gather the pieces of a shattered Nigeria and weave it back. The man has been tortuously doing that these four years. He first implemented the TSA to deny corrupt govt

officials access to Nigeria's lean purse. I can NEVER agree with the few monsters diverting Nigerians' attention from the PDP crimes against Nigeria which have left Nigeria where she is. Remember, when David Cameroon said if UK had been looted the way Nigeria was being looted,

the country would cease to exist, it wasn't PMB or APC in power. Remember, too, that when Professor Charles Soludo said a total of 150 Billion US Dollars (N30 Trillion equivalent, then) had been stolen by govt officials within the period of the GEJ govt and that whoever emerged

President in 2015 would regret ever leading Nigeria, it was not PMB or APC in government. Remember, too, that when Chinua Achebe wrote the book, THERE WAS A COUNTRY, he wasn't implying that before the PMB govt which came in 2015, there was a country called Nigeria. The PDP

infiltrated the 8th National Assembly in 2015 and made sure they connived with PDP traitors in the NA to protect all their loots and use the blood money to fight PMB and ensure he failed in attempt to make Nigeria better. As a result, all the bills submitted by PMB to make laws

and give meaning and foundation to his war against corruption, were lampooned by the brigands in the National Assembly and jettisoned! If you were in PMB's shoes and people who should think before they talk against you are simply dancing to the tunes and whims of your opponents,

The Military used Nigeria's oil boom in the 70's to build an enviable country for all of us. What did Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, PhD, do with Nigeria's oil boom? He shared it with his party members and walked away a hero all because thieves are celebrated and patriots are stoned!
