#BBB NEWS| The Fury Against Buhari (And Saraki) By Aonduna Tondu

Through acts of apparent omission, President Buhari and his government have allowed some conniving and desperate elements within his party, the APC, to transform the celebratory victory of the Nigerian people over the ruinous maladministration of the despair-inspiring PDP into an uncertain period of national mourning and gloom.

The high expectations that characterized the immediate post-election period have overnight ominously given way to clouds of melancholic suspicion  and cynicism the angst and fury of which are directed against the president  whose seeming aloofness has provided both comfort and temerity to the gangster-style impunity of an increasingly insolent and hubristic Bukola Saraki and his PDP sponsors led by David Mark and the cast of fellow desperadoes whose consistently bad ways were responsible for their repudiation at the polls by the overwhelming majority of the Nigerian electorate.

Surely, any serious government should be worried by the loss of confidence in it on the part of the citizenry and the new Buhari administration ought to be doubly worried that quite early in their mandate, they stand the risk of alienating especially the common man through deeds that may portray them as either untrustworthy or simply irresponsible.

The fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao netted about $600 million, making it the most lucrative fight in boxing history. 

The bout made the two boxers record breaking amounts of money but Pacquiao’s net take will be significantly reduced after paying off his promoter, Bob Arum and Top Rank, a fee that Mayweather doesn’t have since he owns his own company.

So how much did Mayweather make?  Enough to eclipse the careers of NBA legends in the making.
