Why Majority of Nigerians Are Ignorant of the Achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari and RT. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, the Federal Minister of Transportation.

Why Majority of Nigerians Are Ignorant of the Achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari 

President Muhammadu Buhari is performing well in his administration. But many Nigerians don't know a lot of his achievements, because of either lack of good public relations or poor public relations of his Ministers and DGs. 
RT. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi is the Honourable Minister of Transportation, but he seems to prefer to be the DG of Nigerian Railways. Railway transportation is just one of the sectors of the Ministry of Transportation. Can he tell us what his ministry is doing in air transportation, road transportation and water transportation? 

Majority of Nigerians are ignorant of the achievements of the Federal Ministries, because of poor public relations. 

President Buhari is blamed for the failures of even local governments! Because of the failures of the state governors who cannot even clean up their streets. They are often showing the commissioning of both completed and uncompleted constructions of roads and flyovers in their states in the midst of dilapidated streets with heaps of stinking refuses and surrounded by  poverty-stricken destitute children and women begging for alms by the roadside.
Construction of roads and flyovers are not the fundamental needs and priorities of majority of Nigerians. Projects to tackle poverty and unemployment should be the priorities of state governments. 

The administration of President Buhari has created more new jobs for Nigerians than the previous administrations of the Nigerian government. But ignorant Nigerians still blame him for the failures of their incompetent state governors and incompetent local government administrators.  
One Igbo man even blamed President Buhari for his own impotence when his wife insulted him for failing to give her orgasm!

Nigerian Lesbian Gospel Singer Rocks America

15 Jun 2009 13:25 Africa/Lagos

'Come Out' Album's Message: God Loves You Just as Gay as You Are

LOS ANGELES, June 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Gospel singer and an out lesbian member of clergy in the Gospel Truth Music Ministry (http://www.rizigospel.com/), the Rev. Rizi Nasele Timane' is unveiling her new album "Come Out," a collection of original songs that call for full human rights for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. As part of the album's promotion, Timane' is touring the United States during the summer of 2009.


The album's title song challenges the fundamentalist notion that God and the Bible condemn homosexuality and strives to educate the public about what the Bible really says and does not say about homosexuality. "I have extensively studied the Greek and Hebrew translations of the Bible, and I found that, when interpreted properly, the Bible does not condemn homosexuality at all," stated Timane'.


"I'm the first out lesbian reverend and gospel singer from Nigeria, West Africa," Timane' continued. "I was one of the first people to identify as openly gay in homophobic Africa, and I know firsthand how that rejection translates to drug addiction and suicide." According to the Massachusetts 2006 Youth Risk Survey, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth are up to four times more likely to attempt suicide than their heterosexual peers. Additionally, San Francisco State University's Chavez Center Institute has found that LGBTQ youth who come from a rejecting family are up to nine times more likely to attempt suicide than their heterosexual peers because of the negative treatment endured.


"For LGBT persons, this painful struggle with religion or spirituality and sexuality is responsible for depression, low self-esteem, drug addiction, self-abuse, isolation and the entering into of false heterosexual marriages," said Timane'. "Worst of all, it's responsible for thousands of suicides each year in the LGBT community, especially amongst our teens and young adults. It is my hope to put a stop to these negative traits and suicides by re-educating our community."


"Anti-LGBT arguments like the one contending that California's Proposition 8 ensures children's wellbeing by providing them with a mother and father are totally absurd. In the case of Proposition 8, the state's laws permit adoption by gay and lesbian parents as well as single parents and even allows courts to assign a single grandparent, aunt, uncle or even a non-blood relative to be a child's guardian or caregiver," continued Timane'.


"The goal of my new album is to enable any LGBT person seeking God to know that God loves them just as gay as they are," states Timane'. She also wants to help those who are struggling with their spirituality and sexuality, just as she did for many years, to finally find complete reconciliation and affirmation.


Gospel music lovers and Timane' fans will be able to attend live performances at the following times and events:


-- June 20 at 2:50 p.m., Rhode Island PrideFest in Station Park


-- June 27 at 3 p.m. and June 28 at 12:30 p.m., San Francisco Pride Celebration in Civic Center Plaza
