Happy #DemocracyDay.
This is a great time to review the performance of our current democratic ruling party.
Now do you remember these promises? Let's review them one by one.

The first promise is "ban all government officials from traveling abroad".
This was not fulfilled. Buhari spent a whopping 103 days in London, at a stretch for medical treatment.
He also kept the presidential jet at Stansted, accumulated parking fees

Second promise was "revival of Ajaokuta Steel Company".
No point wasting our time on that pipe dream.

Third promise is an "employment scheme to employ 740,000 graduates across 36 states and the FCT"
A little was done to actualize this, but it largely entered voice mail.

Fourth promise was "720,000 jobs by the 36 states per annum".
Even Stalin, at the height of communism, collectivization and GOSPLAN wasn't allocating jobs in such a cavalier manner.
You don't allocate jobs like you allocate plots.
It was nonsensical.

Fifth promise was "provision of allowances to discharged, but unemployed NYSC members for 12 months".
Please if you know ANYONE who is a beneficiary of this scheme, present evidence, to collect $10,000 from me.

Sixth promise is "real GDP growth of 10% per annum".
Facts are stubborn things. Fantasy meets reality.
Nigeria's real GDP Growth (%)
2015: 2.7
2016: -1.5
2017: 0.82

Ladies and gentlemen.
The ruling party has simply not performed - they haven't even taken governance seriously for a day.
To paraphrase Bob Marley, "chase those crazy bald heads out of the town".
With your PVCs, get them ready.
