Buhari says he would rather invest in agriculture than give N5k to unemployed Nigerians

While speaking during a meeting in Saudi Arabia, President Buhari said he had a different opinion on the N5000 stipend his party promised to give to unemployed Nigerians when they come into power.

Buhari said he would rather use the N5000 to repair the infrastructures in schools and empower mining and agriculture than to give the money to people who don't work;


“This largesse of N5,000 for the unemployed, I have got a slightly different priority. I would rather do the infrastructure for the school that request them and empower agriculture, mining so that every able bodied person can go and get work instead of giving 5,000, N5,000 to those who don’t work.”

In the long run, that would be a better option. We really needed all hands on deck to revive our economy, and Agric is a great place to focus on right now.

So let him invest in the Agriculture na?!
planting season is around the corner and farmers do not have fertilizer yet!
who is fooling who?

STERN said...

This man is really stupid. The budget for schools infrastructure and agriculture is there already and shouldn't be related to money for the unemployed. What will you say of someone who has graduated for 10 years now and hasn't gotten any job? Is it the student's fault or the fault of your failed administration? JONATHAN did this and there was no complain, yours shouldn't be different. Whether you like it or not, a rich kid with 3rd class will still get job before a poor kid with first class in Naija whether you build infrastructure or not. Government in America help their citizens by giving loans to their citizens even the unemployed I see no reason why #5000 should be a big deal for you MR. CLUELESSNESS. Infrastructure doesn't change anything

Unknown said...

As far as am concerned this is a better way of spending that money but this administration has filled us with lies right from the onset so how sure are we that you will truly invest this monies to these sectors of the economy so that tjis unemployed or underemployed youths of Nigeria can be gainfully employed instead of paying people that are not working

WakaWaka President, don't stay abroad to talk rubbish and expect it to work in Nigeria. Now you have realized that your promise isn't visible it has become "My Party Promise". Talk is cheap, Nigerians now know better and certainly won't make such a huge mistake come 2019. Just tell Nigerians what you have achieved in 9months of staying in office. 25 countries, Fraudulent Budget presentation, denial of Promises and Fighting corruption you are also part of. Please come back home, your travels are not fruitful and can't change the fact that Nigerians are paying more electricity bill and getting longer darkness... Price of goods are busy smoking high while you're there making another fake promise.

this is just the start of changed promises as the agent of change will always manipulate deceiving the nigerian youths into believing them with their reverse psychology .....how folly was it for they all to shout change and sai baba when they all should have thought clearly and see that pmb and the apc really had no clue about the economy they just wanted power by all means ....note this is just a tip of the ice berg as the manipulation just began

common sense said...

a lot of stupid youth will say i support , carry go, sai baba ....without seeing the folly of what pmb and apc just did making stupid electoral promises to woo the youths ..they are clueless on the economy please Nigerians should get the dust out of their eyes and see that the apc are just a team of buy all means power grabbers who knew how to manipulate the electorate by feeding them with their selfish desires and tricking us to leave our simple pdp boat filled with rats and into an apc ship full of snakes ........only God will help see that we dont drown

I agree with him. It is better to teach people how to fish than to keep giving them fish. It is better to give the unemployed youths constant employment than to keep giving them 5k. It will make them lazy and we dont have an organised system for us to know those that are actually qaulified to have the money. There will be 419 fraud. People will do fake Oluwole certificates and lie that they are graduates. People can change their mind as long as it is for the better. Even God changed his mind in the bible many times when Moses begged Him not to destroy Isreal. Promises are meant to be broken as long as there is a better plan on ground. So free Buhari.

I totally agree with Buhari because giving out the 5k will create room for corruption, looting, embezzlement and fraud. Moreover, we do not have an organised system like in the UK where everybody's details and finger-prints are in a computer. Buhari can not be everywhere to monitor the disborsement of the funds. As an unemployed graduate i prefer to have a job that will pay me more than 5k. What can 5k really do for a graduate? It can only buy you toothbrush and toothpaste. So free Buhari. Lets be reasonable and stop being biased in your reasoning just because your party lost elections. Haters get over yourselves and have a life.

For crying out loud, these sectors have their own budgets!!! Just come out plain that there is no money to give out now because the country is broke (like u always say)...at least people will believe you due to the fact that you lack economic policies capable of bringing money to the country!!!

So apparently people are still going to work on the side while collecting this money..and the scam begins. They will now start devising numerous ways to get 2 peoples share etc. Abeg forget 5k a month. I say TEAch your people to fish. Don't give them pieces of sardine
