Pure aggrandization. Nothing special or spectacular in him. The honour is only in death. If he had completed his term like others, we will be hurling insults on him today too. May his soul continue to rest in peace.
He was not a thief like your principal, he left Katsina dept free, saving billions of dollars for them. He granted amnesty to the Niger Delta region, something a normal northerner or north pleaser cannot do.
He was a good president

Na foolishness dey worry because I didn't mention Igbos here in any negative way. I even said lots of Yorubas voted Obi.
In the last election did Igbos not voted for Igbo? Is that not a fact? But because Yorubas voted Yoruba they are now the problem. Tell me how many Igbos that voted Yoruba.
Most of you are too lazy and lack mental capacity to think if not you won't be saying Yoruba people are the cause of Nigerian problems.
From the way you are commenting I can bet with my life that you are probably around 25 years or less, you don't even know Yaradua talkless of Obasanjo.

I don’t read espitles

Make it short or you avoid this moniker.

Today is exactly 14 years since the death of President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua.
Born on August 16, 1951, he died on May 5, 2010 at the age of 59. He would have been 73 now if he were alive.


He was declared the winner of the election held on 21st April, 2007, and served as president for three years.

Nigeria is a dongeon that does not support good people. If you are good person, the system will try to kpai you so, make una no dey blame tinubu. Buhari wanted to be good, they warned him with sickness, he turn to beast and they spare him

Blame Jonathan... He derailed badly from the blueprint and allowed corruption overtake his administration.

Not that, problems should be traced to the root cause if we want a permanent solution. Tinubu only inherited these problems. I'll always give the biggest blame to Jonathan Jonathan because he was handed over a very good government but destroyed it before leaving due to his loss. I always shake my head whenever I see people hailing Jonathan because they don't understand that he's the architect of the problems Nigeria is currently facing, it started from him and unfortunately his successors have not been able to rectify the problem he caused. I'm just praying for Tinubu to be able to do something.
shut up, #205=1$, was bad, if you don't know what to say just fvkoff.

The brain challenged one that said "subsidy is gone",one year on,show what that policy has benefitted the country.With removal of subsidy at least there should have been massive investment in the sector and fuel queues would have been a distant memory.Buy here we are.
It's not by shouting and taking populist decisions that makes you a leader,is looking at all the factors involved and knowing the best way forward.
Nigeria will NEVER recover from that ill fated,psychotic policy done at same time naira was floated.
There is no other way than for government to do what it's about to do,stupidly increase salaries of public civil servants and hope the private sector,now in intensive care,can magically follow to some degree.
But how can the business man or woman in that sector increase wages when their cost of production has shot up through the roof?

The damage done subsidizing our lives based on irrelevant things will be rectified after one year of removal. I deal in the realm of real situations not ideals or unrealistic expectation.

I have been subsidizing rice for half a century so that you can buy it at 50 naira and you think when I remove it after one year you will not keep buying it at 10,000 naira. That's what my irrelevant subsidy had been doing over the years. It renders local content useless. I have to start reinvesting it into supporting local content until they find their feet enough to meet expectations and then price reduction follows and it will take me years to achieve that. China of today flooding our market with their products didn't get there in one year. Who knows China in the 80s, 90s or the early 2000? They were busy developing local content and investing internally, when they are satisfied internally they extend their excess abroad. That is what this country should do not subsidizing lives of generations on irrelevant things.

Don't just argue this with me

It started in the era of those who choose to subsidized the lives of generations on irrelevant things we don't need in this country which are detrimental to local content of this country. To correct the destruction caused by those irrelevant subsidies will take years as long they sustain the effort.

How is he not better to Tinubu.

Even the amnesty alone, Tinubu can never match that for 100 years not to talk of fuel price reduction

Do you think Peter Obi would have gotten rid of the subsidy/ I very much doubt so. The mistake Peter Obi would make would be to carry people along, these same people would make huge demands that would make the removal of any subsidy fruitless. He will also have to deal with a rebellious senate who would do anything to make his government miserable.

Tinubu should have followed the shock therapy route, government should have removed the subsidy by deregulating the price of petrol as already done with diesel and kerosene. Next, the same should be done with electricity prices.

My dear friend,
I respectfully beg to differ. I remembered quite vividly that i was sent on lots of missions in Nigeria between 2000 and 2014.I know a lot about your country, that you don’t know.
First of all, Buhari was grossly incompetent. He had no business being a community leader, let alone a president of the most populous black nation on earth with lot of intelligentsia. Secondly, he was surrounded by sycophants and charlatans like himself, who couldn’t see the difference between politics and the delivery of good governance to its citizens.
The accusations and counter accusations that riddled his administration was a calculated attempt to discredit the previous administration and to distract the citizens from realizing what would’ve been their right to demand answers to his incompetence.
Jonathan was not a saint by any stretch of imagination. But he was a more empathetic leader.
The stealing and killing under Buhari’s leadership was uniquely sordid.
There were very powerful people who were determined to sabotage Jonathan’s government and they did. And because he was Lilly- livered, he didn’t have the balls to do the needful.
Nigeria is a very unique country. When someone of one of the major tribes is in power, regardless of how incompetent and corrupt he is, his fellow tribal men and women will always rally around him with support, as it was with Buhari and with the present leader.
The Jonathan’s story doesn’t fly. You know it, I know it and everyone knows it.

Yaradua three years was far better than buhari 8 years combined and tinubu 1 year in addition... yaradua was one of the best president we ever had

The reason oshomole and his likes became govornor, and then AC which is today apc became strong and took over presidency, don't quote me wrong, he was Gods sent, and did not play politics with the judiciary, which birthed alot of corrupt politicians, and that's the difference between him and a person like gadaffi

he reversed good things. he was just too naive and maybe power hungry grin

GloriousGbola:


yardua reversed the sale of the refineries
yarduas policies chased virgin nigeria out
yardua killed efcc by sacking ribadu and appointing waziri

it is only the young and naive who will swallow this

several issues today are downstream of his decisions

Since the career criminal is not performing like the first class accountant he forged certificates for, you just have to throw this one we saw small improvement in his hand under the bus, na una way.
