Dying doesn't suddenly make u a legend. Ur husband did nothing and was tagged baba go slow by a large percentage of Nigerians and even refused to relinquish power to his dying breath. Make we hear word abeg. Criminals

fkaz: Former first lady Hajiya Turai Yar ’Adua has stated that Nigeria would have been a different country today if her husband had not died.
Speaking during a memorial lecture organised by students of Umaru Musa Yar’Adua University (UMYU), Katsina , Turai extolled the virtues of the late president .“If Umaru were alive, the history of Nigeria would have been different because he had focus,” she said in an emotion-laden voice.
Turai said even though the late president had health challenges while serving as president , “he gave his best for Nigeria ” and “ Umaru was a very honest man”.
According to her, “the late Umaru always said, ‘I am here to serve, not to make money. I am here to leave alegacy for you, not property’.”
Turai, who lauded the organisers of the memorial lecture, said she was happy to be in their midst because the event was commemorating someone she loved dearly, adding that “each time there is an occasion in memory of Umaru , I must be there no matter how small the organisers are”.
She decried the low turnout at the lecture but said, “I will not blame them because they have other commitments… Umaru believed in commitments and gave his best in everything he did.”
The memorial lecture was organised as part of activities to mark the 2013 edition of UMYU’s Student Union Government Week

We agree with u. But he's dead, can we wake him to rule Naija? Nope.

Were u guys expecting things not to be different ? Two men with different goals, ambitions, agendas, visions and style of leadership, the question should be if nigeria could have been better than it is today or worse than it is with Yar'adua as president

I still have respect the late president,he eradicated corruption to a large extent,d man really worked for the betterment of nigeria. If not for his sickness,he would have transformed nigeria.

ok,we don hear,2moro maddam Abacha go talk her own story.

See their hypocritical mouths. No be all of una dey call Yaradua names when him be President? Say him too slow, bla bla bla? Na now una mouth they twist go one side dey say another thing. Mtchewwww.

Sincere 9gerian: it ws d reduction of d pump price of fuel from #70 to #65 dat triggered d increase in subsidy payments. Yar'adua used dat reduction to gain some level of legitimacy,following wide condemnations dat trailed hs election.
D FIFA under 17 world cup in Nigeria in 2009 preventd yar'adua from total removal of subsidy cos he didnt want Nigerians to protest while we had foreigners in our midst. He travelled 2 saudi 2days b4 d policy could be effectd & never came back. (olusegun adeniyi - politics,power n death)

NONSENSE! And the new year celebrations didn't prevent the man whom u lick the as$ always from reducing it further?

Your husband is still better than the puppet we have as president even at his death. RIP sir!

For the fact that yardua publicly declared his assets on resumption when jonathan couldn't ,reduced the price of petrol while jonathan increased it,doused the militancy tension by granting amnesty to Niger delta riff-raffs and entrenched a civil society where opposition parties won elections or re-claimed their mandates at the court,independence of the judiciary and the electoral body,then I have to subscribe with Turai that her husband would have been a better option that Jonathan !

Absolutely

Yar Adua declared asset and was on the "Rule of law" agenda which Retardeen says he doesnt give a damn for

Immortal!:
Yes, we know he was very active in spite of his health challenges, lyk u sed, cos u(Turai) were virtually ruling d country!

The revisionism has started already. The same man that was so slow in decision making that folks ordering snails in bukas would call it Yar'dua

Stop tripping.Yardua PERSONALLY admitted the 2007 elections was a fraud.Did jonathan admit the 2011 was fraudulent ?

venorite: True talk, God should give us another dieing president who has nothing to gain but legacy to leave

Look no further, Buhari's in the picture!

Ijogz K: This is the same reason why you got 95 in your Jamb score..


Eediot!

How does the post affect you
Accept my sincere sympathy, I can see your frustration is on the high...don't worry you will scale through in next year's UTME

emmysenior:

And this is the reason why you spilled over 6 times and you were finally given certificate of attendance.

No mind the guy jare na frustration cause am...

Tee_Seven: Thank you ma'am. What else would you have said! I'm sure Madam Dame will probably say her LAME duck is the best president Nigeria has ever witnessed!

This got me rolling on the floor!

I totally agree with u...ur husband was a visionaire, he. Had great plans 4 the country,pity his health failed him

My respect still goes to the late president, because it was during his tenure i traveled by plane for the first time in my life for only N7000 by aero and even heard of further promo as low as N3000 in subsequent year but i no try dat one o coz e too cheap not to get fuckup inside... Mehn..! it was an amazing experience, me inside heloplane

This woman is a deluded, arrogant and blatant egomaniac. If you really loved your husband that much, why didn't you encourage him to resign and attend to his failing health.
You were more interested in being in charge of the government thinking it will last forever.
Sorry to disappoint you, it is obvious people are more interested in other things unlike you lots that have lost touch with reality.
And just so you know, your opinion about the present government is as relevant and important to Nigerians as your early morning fart......very USELESS!!!!

So this thief sef still get mouth to talk? The most corrupt and power-drunk First Lady in Nigeria's history, cutting oil deals and whatnot all over the place, and illegally arrogating presidential powers to herself while her husband was incapacitated. Seems she is still bitter that her husband was not allowed to stay the course of his presidential term on a life-support machine while she called the shots. Better allow the poor man to rest in peace and retire quietly to your cocoon before your blabbering gets you into well-deserved trouble.
