His government brought about a lot of revolution that we are seeing today in ICT in this country, and telecommunications industries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat Obasanjo did in Bureau for Public Enterprise, in ensuring the country diversified economically. This gave way for the reformations in Banking industry, that has fortified the capital intensity of banks in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe go to former president Musa Yar\u2019Adua, his seven point agenda. It is not a hidden thing,everybody noticed his seven point agenda as it touches on Niger Delta transformation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe go to Goodluck Jonathan\u2019s industrial revolution and social amenity transformation. We can notice it from the revitalization of our transport sector.<\/p>\n<p>The PDP stalwart continued, \u201cWhat Buhari says he is commissioning is an already foundation laid by PDP governments over the years, both the railway, the air transport. All these things were planned and put into near completion by the Jonathan administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reformation we had in INEC, Buhari administration want to kill now, by employing their brothers and sisters into INEC, was really done by the past government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou see the World digit Montoring transaction of the federal government, in form of TSA, were put in place by the former government. All the economic blueprints to which Buhari is operating now, they all metamorphosed from what Jonathan has already put in place.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think the APC-led government actually knows what they are saying or if they know, they are trying to be economical with the truth. And you know, it\u2019s a party and government that came into power through propaganda and unnecessary drafted conspiracy theory,\u201d Ukandu added.\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain and member of the Abia state Advisory Council, Alhaji Suleiman Ukandu has taken a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari over claim that successive PDP-led federal governments failed to improve on the nation\u2019s infrastructure.
