Ever since making his declaration to run for the presidential elections in 2015, General Muhammadu Buhari has come under fire from some Nigerians who see his candidature as one that would further polarize the country along religious and ethnic lines.

Professor Wole Soyinka, Nigeria’s literary icon, had, in the past, warned Buhari against putting himself up for election into the presidential office in an article he wrote titled The Crimes of Buhari’.

One of such notable persons that has joined the fray of those asking Buhari to rethink his decision to vie for presidential office is Sheikh Ahmad Gumi, a popular Islamic cleric. The Sheikh had asked Buhari what it was that he did not do at the time he was a military head of state that he now wants to complete.

Gumi noted that Buhari’s candidature is one that portends trouble for the country given his open support for Shari’a, a topical issue that is attractive only in the north. He noted that Buhari had, in the past, suggested the idea of expanding the implementation of Shari’a, which could jeopardize the religious freedom of Nigerians and further put the country into restiveness.

“The APC should field any other candidate other than Buhari. His time has expired. The natural thing to do when there is an allergic reaction is to avoid the allergens. Buhari is an allergen to Christians. Can’t we be treated with non-allergens?”

Sheikh Gumi further noted that Buhari’s rigid personality and inability to entertain advise from those around him is not the hallmark of a good leader.

“Buhari also cannot be advised. That is legendary. He believes in himself only. So if before ascending to power, he is unapproachable, when he gets power he will just turn into another Pharaoh as nobody has the monopoly of wisdom and no man is indispensable.”

i reserve my space waiting for them to start another
PDP APC debate or
North vs South or
Christian VS Muslim

Opinionated mofos

Send confusion in their camp O Lord, like that of the tower of Babel.

A word is enough for the wise.

Gbam!!

PDP sponsored post again

I have always noted that voting Buhari into power is tantamount to voting Shekau and his gang into power..

Buhari can pass for a leader in the stone age not in the 21st century..

Buhari should give it up because he will definitely fail in 2015 if he contest I can stake my house and cars on that..

With all of Jonathan's faults, he is still a far better candidate than Buhari.

If APC is truly a progressive party then fashola must be their candidate.

Fashola is TOO YOUNG according to APC
Amaechi is TOO YOUNG according to APC

All these TOO YOUNG people are ONLY suitable for Vice President...according to APC

hmmm! That this is coming from a renowned Islamic cleric makes it even more interesting.
Under normal circumstance, both Buhari and Jonathan have no business in Aso-Rock! They both are nothing but stumbling block for worthy potential players.

the candidate for APC Fashola/ one popular Christian from the north

For the first time, I am on thesame page with this guy.
Let someone tell Buhari that he has lost his political goodwill and hence, he call never win any election in Nigeria again.
APC will only be asking for more innocent blood when he (Buhari) looses, come 2015. ApC must have mercy on vulnerable Nigerians.

He said some days ago, buhari popularity is as a result of his support for sharia and nothing more.

My question to APC, are they saying Fashola who they are praise as the best governor and technocrat is nor worthy of this ticket? PDP brought Yar dua and Goodluck two governors to win election, what stop APC from doing same instead of living us with two useless option ( Buhari and GEJ ) we now have to choose between a rock and a hard place

Should APC do this, then the election is won already cos I will personally make sure every aged member of my family vote him. But Buhari. .
That is a BIG NO.

There are some elements of objectivity in dis Sheik's assertions. My intensified prayers since the inception of the brouhaha for the forth coming elections hv always been let God's will be done. '' For I know the thoughts I think towards u, says the LORD, a thought of peace and nt of evil to give u an expected end''. that expected end is to hv a country where peace and justice reign. Yes, peace in the northern n southern hemispheres. Peace amongst xtians and muslims.

How long shall we leave in nightmare as bona fide citizens of Nigeria?!

I dnt care whoever occupies the no one sit of power come 2015 as far as the person will be embraced by both xtians and muslims, Hausa Ibo n Yoruba.

A leader who will promote national unity and cohesion withouth imposition of self-conceited will on another religion viz avis delivering the dividends of democracy 2 d populace is wat I personally yearn for.

Oh Prince of Peace reign peace upon our land! Yes, the heart of a king is in d hands of God. May Go touch the hearts of our political kings to always remember that they aren't gonna take any of the ill-gotten effects outa dis earth.

May God help us!
