The petty minded people always look for downfall of serious and factual ones. Why so much attack on Buhari? I could see the fear of this man in you all from top to the bottom.

eaglewingz:


Thank you, people with little knowledge of history will come and say buhari did this and this during his regime when he actually did nothing. Idiagbon was the one actually pulling all the strings in that regime and that was why Babaginda was able to overthrow buhari when Idiagbon was out of the country.


Don't decieve yourself, buhari has no good moral stand,they try to make us believe that he was the one that fought corruption in his regime but the fact remains that Idiagbon was the chief actor in that campaign and buhari was just a figure head.

Moral stand my foot. what happened when he was PTF chairman?

Buhari and his group overthrew one of the best civillian governments of all time. That government had some all time best governors like Mbakwe, Nwobodo, Jakande etc.
The worst part of it all was that after overthrowing the civilian government, he sheepishly handed over power to Babangida without a single gun shot

papaejima1:
This should dispel every doubt in the minds of people that Buhari cannot lead this nation in this turbulent times.

A head of state who knew a coup was being plotted against him and chose not to act to stop it because he hates shedding of blood.

What became of arresting and trying the perpetrators and if guilty jailing them?

So if elected to rule this nation and knowing BH wants to carve out their own country and kill all unbelievers and just because you hate shedding of blood will fail to act and allow them their own country?

I can't believe this. Am beginning to see a lot of flawed reasoning coming from this man.

Sibabasibaba1:
Do we now need any other evidence that Buhari was the chief planner of the 31 December 1983 coup? Buharistans always tell white lies that their pay master never plotted any coup but was in fact INVITED by the planners of the 1983 coup to become Head of State because of his honesty. Now judge them from this Buhari's comment:

“Yes. Remember how many people he killed subsequently for trying to overthrow him? But when I came in, there wasno bloodshed. I think a couple of policemen were killed and [Brigadier Ibrahim] Bako also died in an ambush. “But deliberately, nobody was killed".

Indeed, the comment above does not suggest that Buhari did not know about the coup. It does not suggest that Buhari was only invited to lead Nigeria by the coup's dramatis personae as we have been erroneously made to believe.

By saying "deliberately, nobody was killed", Buhari is stating clearly here that 'we met and agreed that we should not shed much blood. We should only kill if there is resistance by Shehu Shagari's guards.

Indeed, this has vindicated Tanko Yakassai's revelation that Domkat Bali told his wife in 1983 that "they were meeting in Buhari’s house to stage a coup. Buhari was the GOC in Jos at the time, and he told her not to tell anyone" ( see: http://premiumtimesng.com/news/150148-exclusive-why-dying-yaradua-was-sneaked-into-nigeria-without-jonathans-knowledge-tanko-yakasai.html).

So, when Buharistans tell you again that their principal never plotted any coup, refer them to how their principal 'deliberately' did not want people to be killed during the coup.


The problem of Buhari is his blind followers. They present him as a flawless and perfect man who has the magic wand to solve Nigeria's huge problems. So, they perpetuate lies to sell him even when history is there to show that Buhari has too many flaws. Buhari is an idealess, visionless criminal coup plotter who as a young man in his early 40s could not achieve anything in his 20 month despotic reign.


We can't allow a man with analogue ideas to rule us in this digital age. To paraphrase Bill Clinton on Bob Dole, it is not the age of Buhari that is our problem, it is the age of his ideas'.

Buhari the daft General, a serial loser,no wonder Idiagbon was in charge during his regime.

I wonder where's confidence is coming from now after three decades.

old foool,u mean we should support a blood thirty animal like buhari?

He's trying hard to paint himself as as a peaceful man. We can't be deceived. He's a blood thirsty demon.

No one is afraid of a serial loser, I only fear for those Innocent Nigerians that will be maimed and killed in the north by Buhari's supporters when he loses again.

PhockPhockMan:
Former Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari has stated that he was aware that Ibrahim Babangida was planning to overthrow him in 1985.

Buhari, a retired major general and presidential aspirant on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), told TheCable: “It is true that I learnt he was planning a coup against me. And I sat and discussed it with him in my office.

“He brought the news that he went to Kano and people complained that I pulled a pistol during a council meeting. I said Ibro ? I called him Ibro because I was just senior to him by a few months ? I said whoever wants to sit on this chair let him come and sit here. And he decided to do it.”

Reminded that the punishment for coup making was death and he could have put Babangida on trial, Buhari told TheCable: “Yes. Remember how many people he killed subsequently for trying to overthrow him? But when I came in, there was no bloodshed. I think a couple of policemen were killed and [Brigadier Ibrahim] Bako also died in an ambush.

“But deliberately, nobody was killed. I was in the front, the real front in the Nigerian civil war. I had seen enough of death and I know what God means by human life. Any human being, God values their life. And anybody who hopes to meet God, he should be careful about killing.

“When there is law and due process of law took place, the question is clear. Like the cocaine convicts that were executed, the decision was taken in supreme military council.”

eye4eye:
Rubbish!

The PDP, and saTAN ambassadors planting rubbish in the press to cause a rift so Babangida can support the Otuoke dunce. I bet this interview did not happen as it is being reported by Punch. Buhari is too smart to say such things.

The ist thing this phockpussyman does when he wakes up is to scan the internet on Buhari news and bring them to nairaland.
Why so much addiction and stalking? He hasn't even won the APC primary yet. This shows you are bothered and he's a pin in ur sorry phockphockass.
I swear na Buhari matter go kill you.

theshadyexpress:
Imagine the leader of the most populous black nation pulled a gun in a security council meeting.this man is indeed a terrorist.....he can never rule dis country.
And some people will want me to believe APC is not a party of boko haramists

May GOD judge them all

jamace:
This has further confirmed my belief that Buhari is not man enough to handle Nigeria. Imagine a military man and Cin C for that matter allowing himself to be swept from office with ease, like a house boy. In fact, when I saw him shedding tears after losing election in 2011, I said to myself, "Buhari is a complete weakling and should never be entrusted with a position of leadership".
I like Buhari's moral stance but he lacks the courage, charisma and gut required of a president to move Nigeria forward at this moment.
