Seven Key Areas President Buhari Must Tackle.


Now that He has gotten what He have been fighting for, for the past 16years, This is the time for him to start working and forget all praises that was showered on him during and after the election.

Yes, He have to realise that and buckle up, because millions of Nigerians are expecting a lot from Him, the earlier he realise that the better for his government.

Even though, I didn’t say that, I am sure that he doesn’t need any advice from anyone to do what he knows how to do best... Always working round the clock.

Having said that, listed below are Seven key Areas I think he should place his priorities.

1. Be A Real Role Model.

I will say His reputation and past records has earned him this victory and He should do nothing less than what he's known for, better still, He should set a new standard for Himself and his government. Anything less will make his government vulnerable.


2. Thighten the Security Sector.

He should do everything in his capacity to restructure the security department of this country, starting from the Nigerian Army, Nigeria Police Force, Air Force, Nigerian Navy and other security arms. Boko Haram has seriously ridiculed the security arms of this country and He have to do something quick to send a message to them that His Government is in for a serious business. He should do everything in his power to #bringbackourgirls, if at all they (219 Chibok Girls) are still alive, after they were kidnapped from their school in chibok last year.
Fixing the security sector will encourage more foreign trade and also restore Nigeria lost image in peace keeping mission.

3. Reduce Cost Of Governance.

The cost of running Nigeria government is quite alarming compare to other developed country. Currently federal wage bill is at $9billion, while the budget is at $5billion deficit. He should reduce the money spent in unnecessary things such as keeping many guests houses, keeping many aides that are not necessary, keeping long convoys, staying in costliest hotels, chartering planes when not absolutely necessary, servicing politicians that do not add value to the society, engaging in Epicurean life, among other indulgences, If He can achieve this I am very sure that we will have enough money to do the necessary things.

4. Remove Subsidy.

What petroleum subsidy have caused for many Nigerians is far more than it's benefit. Subsidy in my own opinion is just an avenue to make the rich get richer and poor to get poorer (All na Scam). Subsidy in Nigeria use to gulp over $4.2billion every year, all in the name of importing fuel that is not available for most Nigerians.
If at all it is part of his transformation agenda, this is the right time for him to hold the bull by it's horn, Yes Nigerians might want to revoke his decision, but he should find positive ways to pass across his message, now that he have his love in their heart.


5. Rebuild Nigerian Economy.

Building strong structures and systems that will make small and medium enterprise to strife in Nigeria and removal of multiple taxation will really help the economy of this country. Nigeria economy have to be diversified.

6. Power Sector Must Work.

For Nigeria to experience rapid development and leave up to its expectation among the developing countries, then, the power sector must work. Currently in Nigeria, lack of power supply is one of major reasons SME's are not growing. He have to control the billing systems and build structure around it.
The inefficiency of Power sector in Nigeria has impose a huge cost on the economy, which have to be address with immediate effect. The epileptic/crippled power supplies must be fixed.
  
7. Rebuild Nigeria External Image.

To rebuild Nigerian external image, the president elect must fight corruption in the land according to the rule of law of the federal republic of Nigeria and also with great wisdom.

May the Lord grant on to Him (President Mohammadu Buhari) the great wisdom, knowledge and understanding to be able to rule this country in the right direction.


God bless the federal republic of Nigeria.
Bakare O.L.
