Oh My God, this cabal boys will never seize to amuse me.
Well for those of us that understand the politics of this country.

The Idea of bringing teh half dead man into the country in the middel of the night was not scare jonathan or anyone else,
beleive you me , it was an aborted plan for Turai and the special Aides of teh president (the military boys) to do Army take over rule,

Unfortunately Jonathan was able to change the CSO. ask them what happend when the bee of army wanted to enter aso rock with teh ambulance that brought yaradua back. it was open fire,

Why would teh arrange 200 military men armed to their tooth just to bring a near corpse back to his house,

It was a failed coup my brothers,

God is with us

What do you mean by "open fire", was there actual shooting at Aso Rock?

Yar'Adua fails to show up at the mosque
Ailing President Umaru Yar’Adua failed to appear at the Friday Jumat service in Abuja today, dousing tension in the political and security quarters of the federal capital that he will be ending his four months absence from public space by praying at the National Mosque.

Wide claims that Mr. Yar’Adua will be at the Jumat service caused anxiety among Politicians of the ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) last night who heard that loyalists of the President planned to bring him to the Friday service today.

A presidency source who wanted to remain anonymous said the plan triggered an urgent security meeting that went into deep hours of the night, the resolution of which was a stern warning to elements of the Yar’Adua inner circle to tread carefully and restrain from plunging the nation into a crisis.

“Ï think a riot act was basically read out to the Yar’Adua team with a cautionary note that they will be held responsible for any security breach in the city and in the country” said the source who refused to read any meaning to the sudden news that the president and his inner team had prepared to appear in public today.

Last night party officials described it as disturbing that the president’s planned re-entry into public life was coming three days before the Senate begins the screening of ministerial nominees on Monday, and a day after the 2010 budget was passed. They also questioned the choice of a religious occasion for Mr. Yar’Adua’s re-emergence in public.

One source said, “if the President would be coming out four months after his absence, it ought not to be at a religious event because that will send the wrong signal.” Mr. Yar’Adua, a Muslim from Kastina State participated in the weekly Jumat service at the National Mosque located at the Central business district in Abuja until his illness kept him from public view.

The ailing President was flown out of the country on the 23rd of November 2009 to Saudi Arabia for a heart condition and has since been out of public view. The issue of Mr. Ya Adua’s appearance became subject of interest last week when two national dailies claimed that plans were afoot for the ailing president to make a public outing this week.

God has always helped Nigeria (Infact I believe He has special angels for Nigerians and their prayer points)but we have refused to use the greatest aid He has given to us- our brains. Until we begin to use this asset greatly we'll continue to wander in darkness. Concerning the comments on this thread, what else accompanys a comedy show if not laughter and this 'night of a thousand laughs' featuring 'the cabal' is the funniest so far . Moreover, we were once referred to as the 'happiest people on earth'.

guys lets remember that the same media house that published this report published a report earlier on that  President  Yar'adua is "brain dead", which of the 2 reports do we now believe? Honestly, I think the media guys are the ones enjoying this "position" the most. It means only one thing to them, sales, sales and more sales.
Re: Yar’adua To Attend Jumat Service by truly: 9:52pm On Mar 26, 2010
Nigerian journalists are far more corrupt than politicians!
Yaradua is brain dead!
   We rush to buy newspapers
Johnathan will dissolve cabinet and appoint technocrats!
    We rush to buy newspapers
Then we see cry baby Deziani Madueke on the Johnathan's list
Yaradua is going for Jumat service!
      We rush to buy newspapers
Oh, on the way, we drop by at Nairaland to abuse Yaradua, his wife and friends

But did we pause to consider this
Did Yaradua people tell us the guy would attend Jumat Service?

It is a newspaper that is telling us the man is going to Jumat and no, did not show up, and without proof

Why do we believe everything read in the papers?
Let us remember what the former editor of Punch told us about press stories

There's nothing wrong in his attending, but he shouldn't disturb the peace of Nigerians when he does that. Afterall, before he absconded to Saudi Arabia, he never made any news about his Jumat prayers.

Methinks that he's long dead and buried

Hoping for glance of Yar’adua, visitors throng National Mosque

Written by Mohammed S. Shehu

[President Umaru Musa Yar’adua]

President Umaru Musa Yar’adua
Many people who came to the National Mosque, Abuja yesterday to catch a glimpse of ailing President Umaru Musa Yar’adua left the mosque disappointed. As early as midday, politicians, journalists and even worshipers started trooping into the mosque very early in order to get access to the front row or strategic position to enable them see the president.

Those who couldn’t make it into the mosque formed new rows in front of the VIP entrance to the mosque, all in a bid to see the president.

Although Speaker Dimeji Bankole and Secretary to Government of the Federation Mahmud Yayale Ahmed regularly attend the weekly prayers, the presence of former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Chairman, Ahmadu Ali, Former Head of the Nigerian Security Organization and presidential aspirant Alhaji Umaru Shinkafi, Deputy National Chairman of the PDP (North-West), Bello Haliru Mohamed, some politicians and large number of photo journalists reinforced the speculations.

The rush to see Yar’adua, Weekly Trust gathered, followed early morning speculation that the president was billed to make his first public appearance in months at the Mosque during the weekly Juma’at prayer.

“I just came in to pray but my friend told me the President was coming that is why I have to pray here (front of the mosque) in order to see him,” a worshiper said. Weekly Trust gathered that the action may not be unconnected to a report by a national daily yesterday of concluded plans by loyalists of the president to convey him to the Friday Juma’at service.

The speculation was further reinforced by the unusual presence of anti-riot police and road safety officials at the main entrance of the mosque. Parking spaces were also secluded, further giving the impression that the president was truly on his way to the mosque. Even when the president didn’t show up, newsmen refused to leave the premises of the mosque after the prayers until everyone in the front row came out from the mosque.

Yar’adua has not been seen in public since he was flown out of the country on the Friday November 23, 2009 to Saudi Arabia for a heart condition and his subsequent return to the country in the early hours of Wednesday, February 24, 2010.
