TAKE AWAYS FROM #BuhariAddressNigerians:

Since @MBuhari's FIRST & ONLY PRESIDENTIAL MEDIA CHAT, on December 30, 2015, which he BUNGLED, today, is the second time, I'll stay glued to a screen to listen to the septugenarian. WHY? I lost interest in his speeches, the first time.

2/ I, insist that @FemAdesina, @GarShehu, @toluogunlesi & @BashirAhmaad, et al, MUST NEVER POLITICISE @MBuhari's BELATED #COVIDー19 SPECIAL PRESIDENTIAL BROADCAST.

PMB WEPT UNCONTROLLABLY for this job. Therefore, addressing 201,623,008 Nigerians, over #COVIDー19 is STATUTORY.

3/ As a LOVER & ADVOCATE of GOOD GOVERNANCE, I hereby, share my TAKE AWAYS, from @MBuhari's SPECIAL PRESIDENTIAL BROADCAST, as @channelstv puts it.

4/ In @MBuhari's 65 BULLET-POINTS National Broadcast (whether recorded live or pre-recorded), among other things, he gave several DO's & DON'Ts on LOCKDOWNS, SOCIAL DISTANCING, STIMULUS PACKAGES for Hapless Nigerians, et al.

5/ This latest development, remains what many a concerned global citizens, not excluding the BALLISTIC @Imamofpeace, have been calling on @MBuhari to do, since Nigeria recorded #COVIDー19 INDEX CASE on FEBRUARY 27, 2020. It took @MBuhari BELATED ONE MONTH- MARCH 29, 2020, to act.

6/ As this is no time for BLAME GAMES or POINTING FINGERS, as I; former Nigerian Vice President @atiku & @OfficialPDPNig NOTED on FEBRUARY 28, 2020, below are MEASURES the @MBuhari's admin can take, to SENSITIZE NIGERIANS & ALLEVIATE THEIR SUFFERINGS, amid the ONGOING LOCKDOWN.

7/ Amid #COVIDー19 LOCKDOWN, Govt's palliative measures, at all levels, bordering on health, national security, fiscal & monetary policies MUST be geared towards:

1. PROTECTION OF LIVES OF NIGERIANS & FOREIGN RESIDENTS

2. PRESERVING LIVELIHOODS & BUSINESSES TO AVERT DEPRESSION.

8/ #COVIDー19 DO'S & DON'TS

As itemised by Prez. @MBuhari here👇

google.com/amp/s/business…

1. @NOA_Nigeria, @FMICNigeria, @Fmohnigeria & @NCDCgov MUST COLLABO TO PRINT LEAFLETS, FLIERS, POSTERS TO EDUCATE & SENSITIZE NIGERIANS, PARTICULARLY, IN RURAL COMMUNITIES, ET AL.

9/ #COVIDー19 DO'S & DON'TS

As itemised by Prez. @MBuhari here👇google.com/amp/s/business…

2. IG OF @PoliceNG, ABUBAKAR ADAMU; CHIEF OF @HQNigerianArmy, TUKUR BURATAI, & ALL HEADS OF SECURITY AGENCIES MUST SENSITISE THEIR MEN & OFFICERS AGAINST USING BRUTE FORCE ON NIGERIANS.

10/ #COVIDー19 STIMULUS PACKAGE NIGERIANS NEED URGENTLY

Among other things itemised by @MBuhari:
1. THE MOST IMPORTANT STIMULUS PACKAGE, STRUGGLING NIGERIANS NEED, 95M+ WHO ARE EXTREMELY POOR & LIVE ON $1.90 DAILY IS DIRECT BANK DEPOSIT CASH TRANSFER OF AT LEAST N5,000-N10,000.

11/ END- 2. ALIGNING WITH EX-VP @atiku, @renoomokri, ET AL, I URGE @MBuhari's ADMIN TO ON OR BEFORE APRIL 8, 2020, SOURCE, PROCESS, VERIFY & UNCONDITIONALLY TRANSFER N5000-N10,000 TO HAPLESS NIGERIANS WITH BANK VERIFICATION NUMBERS (BVN).

LET THERE BE TRANSPARENCY ON THIS.

Namaste @threadreaderapp, please, UNROLL. Thanks.
