Tese are the
preliminary list of lies from President Buhari's 2016 Independence Day
Speech.
More may be exposed as I detect them.
President
Buhari lied when he said only ₦400 million was voted for housing in 2014. A
total of ₦12,888,821,003 was allocated.
Even the
salary of the staff of the housing ministry is above ₦400 million. President Buhari should be
above lying.
President
Buhari lied when he said Nigeria was 'a pariah' under GEJ. Then British Prime Minister, David
Cameron and incumbent German Chancellor,
Angela Merkel do not visit pariah countries. They and many others visited
Nigeria under Jonathan.
President Buhari
lied by saying 'Investors from all over are falling over themselves to come do
business in Nigeria'. The reverse is true. According to Bloomberg, the
divestment of foreign investors from Nigeria is unprecedented. Not only are
foreign investors fleeing Nigeria faster than jets (an exaggeration on my part
to demonstrate pun as airlines use jets) no fewer than 5 foreign airlines have
left Nigeria. Don't take my word for it. Google it yourself.
President
Buhari lied when he said only ₦12 billion went to roads in 2015. Between 2014
and 2015 SURE-P Government intervention spent over ₦70 billion on roads. Please
again Google this by yourself.
President
Buhari did not say the whole truth when he claims to have generated 5000MWs. He
conveniently forgot to mention that those power stations were built by Jonathan
and other PDP leaders. President Buhari has not built even one station. This is
sheer dishonesty!
President
Buhari lied when he claimed 'nothing was saved during years of prosperity'. He
inherited over $30 Billion in reserves and savings from Jonathan.
As President
Buhari was busy condemning Jonathan he didn't tell you he borrowed ₦2.2
Trillion in a year. That's the only major area of the economy where he beats
Jonathan.
In conclusion,
President Buhari's Independence Day speech contained so many lies,
exaggerations and inaccuracies. Need I remind the President that lying is
corruption! #PMBIndependenceLie
