Why is there a Conspiracy of Silence among Nigeria's social critics, human rights activists, "progressives" and the media?

Why is the media silent while Nigerians are suffering fuel scarcity, regular power outages and increased terrorist attacks?

President Muhammadu Buhari is Nigeria's President. Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has had his day. He will not be held responsible for government and governance of Nigeria today.
Why is President Buhari so slow?
Why is President Buhari carrying on as if he has forty year tenure and not four years?
Why is there no sense of urgency?
Why? Why, President Buhari?
President Buhari must awake, arise and been to govern. He should stop foreign trips for a season and allow the Minister of Foreign Affairs to represent him at the international fora he is due to speak. He needs to sit down and work.
President Buhari must work very hard so as to fulfil his numerous Presidential Campaign Promises, including:
1. Payment of N5,000 Monthly Unemployment Allowance to our 25million Vulnerable Youths;
2. One Meal Each School Day to all our Primary School Pupils nationwide;
3. Defeat of Boko Haram before the end of December, 2015;
4. Stabilisation of the international market for crude oil. And I am not being cynical on this one. President Buhari has the moral authority as an elder Head of State and his standing as Nigeria's President to host a meeting of all Crude Oil Producing Countries (including the United States of America, Russia, Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom and the OPEC countries), the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and China, the major Crude Oil Consuming country, and impress on all of them the danger to the world economy if the price of Crude Oil continues to slide. He can actually stabilise the international market for the commodity;
5. Zero-Tolerance for corruption. President Buhari should refrain from perpetually talking about how corrupt Nigerians are and what he plans to do to bring corrupt public officials to book. He should just do it. He should prove that he actually belongs to everyone and that he belongs to no one. He should demonstrate in no unmistakable terms that no Nigerian, including former military rulers and retired military officers, who revel in obscene wealth which they cannot account office w they acquired same, is a sacred cow. The President should use his good office to pressure the National Assembly and ensure passage into law of the "Forfeiture Of Assets Which Cannot Be Accounted For Act" and the "Protection Of Anti-Corruption and Anti-Money Launderers Whistle-Blowers Act"; and, ultimately
6. Make the value of the Naira to the U.S. Dollar 1:1. Again, I am not being cynical here. If President Buhari really works hard, combats corruption without fear or favour, he could eventually be the President who actually achieves a Foreign Exchange Rate of One Naira to One U.S. Dollar ($1:N1) by 29th May, 2019.
God bless President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR.
God bless Nigeria.
