APC Lied to get to power and fantastically lying to sustain power

No doubt, this is a very tough and challenging period for many
Nigerians. The past one year under this APC led government in Nigeria
has been dotted with lamentations, gnashing of teeth, full of
disappointments, unimaginable hardship, dashing of hopes and complete
reversal of promises. Certainly, the present despicable and lamentable
situation in the country was the least thing Nigerians particularly
those brainwashed 15 million Voters who voted for President Buhari
bargained for. Even though I can raise my head high and say that I was
not among those bunch of ignoramus voters who were deceived into
believing that President Muhammadu Buhari has the capacity to turn
stone into bread as I never fell for those white lies that the party
gushed out to Nigerians. However, much as I had expressed skepticism
and have continued to be skeptical as to the party's genuine capacity
to lead the country to a safer shore but what actually baffled and
keep surprising me is the level at which the party is struggling
desperately to use the same lies or peddling of falsehood they used to
get to power to also remain in power. Or could this be the reason why
there is this maxim that one needs another lie to sustain one lie?

They also mesmerized us with the sweet promises that pump price of
fuel would be reduced to N40 per litre, that Nigerian school Children
would start enjoying one free meal every school day, that workers and
pensioners would receive their pay on or before 25th of every Month
and above all, that the cankerworm called Corruption would be fought
to a standstill among other promises.
General Muhammadu Buhari who later got 'baptized' by charging to
President Buhari was so much repackaged to the point that the dummy
was sold to Nigerians that the Daura born former Army general was the
only clean and incorruptible Nigerian existing. They told us he was
the 'Messiah' to come and the only one that has the panacea to our
economic cum political travails in this country. We were told that
even as a former military head of state, he had no other house
anywhere in the world except the moderate bungalow in his village.
They said Buhari has the magic wand to exterminate corruption in
Nigeria.

There is elasticity to deceit. In order words, there is a limit at
which you can deceive a people. How can we live in a country where
government is run on pure falsehood? Every policy of the government is
shrouded in lies. You lied to us that you were going to appoint
'Angels' as Ministers and ended up appointing the same old known
people. You told us you were going to do certain things like feeding
Scholl Children, paying N500 to unemployed Youths and make one dollar
to equal to one naira only to deny all those promises immediately you
got to power. Government is run on the pedestal of sincerity and
responsibility not on the basis of lies and continued falsehood. This
is the gospel of TRUTH, thanks be to the big TRUTH.
