Jihad and buhari-like bigotry will take us back 300 years

cedaraustine:



I might not support him, but don't call him 'the most useless president ever'.

If many people made their point without all this things that put some people off, maybe I might listen more and they get to convince me that Buhari is the man.

I don't care about who much, but Nigeria should be better please.

Yesterday a Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to President, Reuben Abati published in his Twitter the exposing information from Wikileaks about Buhari’s 1983-84 governing years.


The information is provided by the Public Library of United States Diplomacy through Wikileaks

Like President Obasanjo before the 1999 election, General Buhari’s political experience is limited to that of military Head of State. Buhari came to power as a result of a 1983 New Year’s Eve coup against the democratically elected Shehu Shagari. The eviction of Shagari came as a welcome relief as did Buhari’s promise to root out corruption. That relief, however, was short-lived as Nigerians watched despairingly as the Buhari regime’s promises to revive the economy and wipe out rampant corruption withered during 20 months of heavy-handed, largely ineffective rule.

In May 1984, Buhari ordered the brutal expulsion of 700,000 illegal immigrants from neighboring African states, jailed hundreds of political opponents and muzzled a once aggressive press. His loyalty to the military also came into question as he dismissed 30,000 soldiers as a cost-cutting measure. Buhari also soured Nigeria’s relations with Britain, when he was accused of masterminding a clumsy and unsuccessful attempt in July 1984 to kidnap President Shagari’s brother-in-law, former Transport Minister Umaru Dikko. Moreover, Buhari undermined traditional rulers throughout Nigeria, slashing their benefits and questioning their authority.

I have been trying to force my mind to support GEJ because i have relatives benefitting from his corrupt Goverment, but my conscience wont just allow me. Posterity will never forgive us if we allow religion biasness and sentiment to cloud our reasoning and vote for the most useless president ever in the history of this country.

Say no to Corruption!

Nigeria Sai Buhari!

I keep seeing posters saying he overthrew a democratic elected government, what they fail to say or realize is that the government he overthrew was a very corrupt government and not elected but selected. More like he saved Nigeria then. Of course people are not perfect, he may have made mistakes along the line, but overall he was fair. Also looking at his list of governors and ministers, I see more Christians and southerners in his cabinet. Let us give this man a chance, PDP has done it the last 15 years and I will give them an F grade. My 2 cents.

coogar:
reuben abati is worse than chukwumerije.

this guy went from one of the most brilliant writers in nigeria to a barking bulldog. he's doing the exact dirty job ribadu did for OBJ.

buhari's regime was the best nigeria ever had since independence. british/america never liked it cos buhari refused to mortgage the souls of nigerians for a worthless IMF loans.

GEJ & his PDPrïcks do not have 1% of buhari's honesty.

A US ambassador cable released by Wikileaks details how American officials guided Goodluck Jonathan to take the reins of the presidency during Umaru Yar’Adua’s chaotic last days. Diplomatic cables made public by WikiLeaks show that the American ambassador to Nigeria, Robin Sanders, instructed Goodluck Jonathan on how to get rid of former INEC Chairman, Mr. Maurice Iwu. Using the threat that the United States government would not support future elections if Iwu remained the INEC chairman, the ambassador suggested that Mr. Iwu be placed on terminal leave.

In the chaotic period, Jonathan was doing everything to appease the North. He told the Americans that the Northern political leaders were uncomfortable with him as the man at the helm. Jonathan found comfort in the counsel of the former Head of State, General Abdulsalami Abubakar, who acted as his go-between with Northern leaders.


Ambassador Sanders warned Jonathan steer clear of former President Olusegun Obasanjo. She stressed to Jonathan that in order to be an effective leader, he wass not to be seen as being directed by Obasanjo. Jonathan promised to take steps to separate himself from Obasanjo.

The most revealing part of the cable was the point where Jonathan confessed to his ineptitude, “I was not chosen to be Vice President because I had good political experience,” he said. “I did not. There were a lot more qualified people around to be Vice President, but that does not mean I am not my own man.”

Further, he said, “not a politician” and had very limited experience as an administrator".

@datribune, an aged follower of Nigeria govt as f then are aware of what you just wrote above but that might be the avenue to judge Buhari, he is so weak that tunde his vice was the action man. I can vividly remember that before Buhari overthrow Shagari things were better, lets forget all this ranting here, during Shagari regime I bought 14-15 cups of garri for 50kobo at ogbete market Enugu while in Buhari's, it was 10cups. Buhari might be good in military rule but not in this democracy, age is a factor on his side also Nigeria today is more vast than 80's. We need change actually but not Buhari, we need a youth at age of 30's-50's which why I support GEJ for his transformation.

@Datribune, north wants power back to them if we allow it Nigeria will not develop becos of Godfatherism

We know your type, you will rather vote a fisherman

And they keep digging & digging all in a bid to discredit their opponent. Instead of looking for how to bring down ur opponent, why not make noise about the achievements of ur administration that have been felt appreciably by the masses. Nigerians are wiser now.

How many was decently tried

Jailing is never the case

Is more of finding out whether such person really perpetrated such crime


Jailing the snares of his administration without the media both local and international
