WorldBank Loan: @MBuhari as a Northern @NGRPresident. When Bigots See a Reflection
MBuhari's chances of becoming @NGRPresident 2019 are increasing by the day. The irony is that the ignorant and vitriol opposition is the one campaigning for him. Strengthening his Northern base with their daily dose of propaganda both online and offline, they are first to accuse Buhari of being a Northern President, every action is interpreted in the tribal, religious or primordial prism, if Buhari gets a loan from Islamic Bank to develop South Nigerian roads he is accused of trying to Islamise Nigeria.
Another out of the many examples is the recent propaganda about the World Bank. So seriously you don't expect the WB to focus on one of Africa’s worst humanitarian crisis because you so hate Buhari and the Hausa Fulani’s? when you guys accuse Buhari of tribalism just consider the reflection in your mirror, you are referring to your bigoted selves.

The Countdown: 21 Nuggets on Muhammadu Buhari and 2019 Nigerian Presidential Election- Raji Faruk Ayotunde
1. A number of folks have asked me about 🇳🇬2019 @NGRPresident election. My choice of candidates so far until we get a surprise candidate. ⛔= No way. 💛= Maybe. 💚Strongly support. 💕Reluctantly.

@MBuhari 💕
2. In 2011 and 2015 I 💚Strongly supported @MBuhari to the elective post of @NGRPresident as a matter of fact I supported GMB candidacy physically, financially and in other ways in 2011 under the Congress for Progressive Change and opposed the then proposed merger with then ACN
3. My then opposition to the proposed CPC/ACN merger was born out of the principle that the CPC would over time become a party that would attract everyday people, it may lose in 2015 but slowly attract transparent grassroots across Nigeria like Labour was doing in Ondo State.
4. Despite the opposition by several supporters of the CPC to the merger with ACN the political reality was that defeating a ruling party as entrenched as the @OfficialPDPNig the, would involve a marriage between the good, the bad and the ugly and the grassroot base of @MBuhari
5. Fast-forward 2015 a combination of CPC @MBuhari grasroot base, the political machine of @AsiwajuTinubu, a massive chunk of opportunistic @OfficialPDPNig vampires who were smart enough to notice the electorate’s desire for change, they read the last rites to @GEJonathan & PDP.
6. @GEJonathan the opportunistic alliance of @MBuhari's base, the good, the bad and the ugly produced @APCNigeria Presidency and a first historic defeat of the ruling party in Nigeria @OfficialPDPNig
7. Expectations of several core CPC base was that @MBuhari would use his first term in office to carry out a needed radical reform especially has he had nothing to lose bearing in mind his age, track record on transparency, his patriotism and love for Nigeria and experience.
8. @MBuhari failed very high expectation that he would do things radically
different, he may have performed by some standards but not to the standard of those of us who hold a higher performance indicator. Yes, better than the PDP days, not radically different from the PDP days.
9. Party Politics: @MBuhari did not provide leadership to his @APCNigeria knowing that he was in bed with a coalition of good, bad and the ugly, he compounded things by letting his Uncle & few trusted clan mates to run his government in the early days. By his own admission he failed.
10. Emergence of @bukolasaraki : I am not a fan of Saraki, in fact I think he should be housed in the hottest part of Kirikiri for his corrupt tendencies, but he contributed to the emergence of @MBuhari as @NGRPresident but PMB mismanaged Saraki's emergence as @NGRSenate President.
11. The moment @bukolasaraki was able to emerge as @NGRSenate President in spite of @MBuhari's posturing of (I belong to no one) his Presidency and agenda became demystified to an extent, those corrupt ones we assumed will take flight discovered GMB as PMB was vulnerable.
12. @MBuhari assumed office as @NGRPresident, first move was to alienate his core supporters, his new friends and his Uncle started making appointments for him, appointments indicated unrivalled nepotism especially those from Northern Nigeria. It was embarrassing to put it nicely.
13. When some parts of Nigeria started screaming about marginalisation, we told them to look at the so called Northern appointment, Dr Tilde put it so well as 'family affair' most appointment representing the North had traits of Cousins, wives, associates of Northern ruling elite.
14. From day 1 core ‘BUHARISTS’ not later day debutants ‘BUHACHOPS’ started warning the @MBuhari Presidency about mismanaging the peoples mandate, we were labelled ‘attention seekers’ ‘just looking for appointment’ but @aishambuhari confirmed our position that today's PMB is not GMB.
15. If @MBuhari and @APCNigeria had carried out half of the roadmaps presented to Nigerians, it would have radically transformed Nigeria. What Nigeria needs is a ‘shock treatment’. Nigeria has Cardiac arrest and we cannot continue to apply semantics, whilst those elected to find a lasting solution keep doing the opposite, keep repeating same failed experiment.
16. Today what is left of APC are PMB himself 1. VERY FEW Core GMB Loyalist’s, 2. Disgruntled APC members who are (Rightly or Wrongly) not happy with PMB but too scared to leave. 3. APC Members who do not want to lose power and hoping their turn will come. 3. PDP members disguised as APC loyalist.
17. It is sad that even the worst of PMB is good enough to run for a 2nd term, it confirms the distressing state of Nigeria. 1. Good people can’t be attracted to politics. 2. Not 1 person good enough amongst today's candidate to challenge PMB on transparency. We are truly in deep trouble based on the very limited electable choice.
18. PMB can redeem himself if he rededicates himself to the radical transformation of Nigeria. Be more open to people outside his comfort zones. Open more channel for self-criticism & stop depending on praise singers, history wont forgive him if he fails Nigeria.
19. The question is not about PMB wining in 2019 the question is what will be his legacy after 2019. He needs to entrench party politics, help in democratising his own party, attracting young folks and also learn the spirit of give and take in politics, bring back the GMB that we all know.
20. It is in the interest of PMB and his legacy that the opposition party must be given a level playing feed to operate, that he PMB has failed to mentor anyone YOUNG and ready enough to take over from him in 2019 does not speak well of his leadership qualities. Never too late to make amends.
21. With ache, gritted teeth I Raji Ayotunde Faruk who have been following GMB since 2003 Strongly supported him in 2011 and 2015 can only 💕Reluctantly support him in 2019 to stop the VAMPIRES of yesterday, who are now gathering momentum and forming axis of evil until we get it right 4🇳🇬

Five Types Of People To Avoid On Social Media
Think of social media as a place where all sort of people go to find things that interests and intrigues them at variance. The type of characters you will find on social media these days are endless; the attention seekers, the quiet observers, those hawking something, those criticizing and complaining about everything. The list is endless as you would expect, the world itself is composed of several kinds of people and the only passport anyone needs to appear on these platforms is access to the Internet.
It is completely acceptable the way social media can be accessed by anyone but for you whose primary purpose is to socialize decently, you’d have to choose your type of engagement on the social media.
Here is a list of 5 types of people to avoid on social media:
The Snoopers
You see, the theme and direction of your timeline or your page on social media should be yours to control, after all it is your account. But there are some people on social media who want you to say or show more than you want to. You post something like, ‘for seasons come and go‘ and they start to investigate, the next thing they’d ask is, ‘did your lover leave?‘ or ‘or are you heartbroken?‘ If you post something about your work, say, ‘read the fourth article I published on XYZ website,‘ they’d be the ones to ask how it is possible to write four articles in a short space of time.
Yes, people can care to know how you do what you do or how you live your life, but you should have a space that you own totally. You should avoid anyone who is eating too deep into your space and digging too deep into your business.
The Sycophants
Oh these ones would tell you anything to make you happy, even when you make a wrong statement or a bad post. They are the type of people that support others to bully people on social media. You’d see them mostly clustered around celebrities and politicians on social media. They are there, always paying lip service. Even when the star does something wrong, they are there to urge him/her on. People like this should be avoided, especially on social media.
The Mockers
Social media is a fine place to get to socialize with your friends, a place to make new ones and grow your network. People can be really nice and friendly on social media but there are some who are not really interested in breathing the air of friendliness. They’re primarily on social media to show their grand posture while every other person is a joke to them.
Be careful with your responses on social media because some people there are not interested in the explanation you have to give. What they want is to get you to gaffe and then they mock you. You should avoid this type of people because no matter how hard you try to explain, they do not care. They need an object under their microscope of mockery, and you should not offer yourself.
The Wailers
Somehow social media has become a place where people take their complaints to these days. To be honest, it has proven to be fairly effective. But one has to be wary now because for some people, it is a way of life.
I recommend strongly that you search for positive energy any where you can get it, even on social media. That is why you should avoid those that continually spreads negativity around. You don’t want to be in a situation where one of the people you’re following on Twitter, often posts things that demotivate and laden your heart. You need to have a good air around you to be full of life, it is therefore necessary to eliminate anything that threatens that spirit of yours, and an everyday wailer is definitely one to do that.
The Fakers
These ones are probably the most difficult to spot but they are on social media, a lot of them in fact. They are the reason ‘fake lifestyle’ has become a popular topic today. They are the ones who talk about work on social media but they have nothing doing. They are the ones who have the most benevolent bae, who gives them gifts that inspire their posts and pictures on social media, but if you check, they are as single as they entered the world. They are those that hide their troubles to project a perfect life on social media. It would have been fine, since its their life and their page, but for you, if you know anyone in this mould, it is better to avoid them, so you don’t put unnecessary pressure on yourself, trying to duplicate a fake life.

Australian soldier killed in training incident

"The soldier was subsequently pronounced deceased."
