A lawyer deputizing a Waec holder... Something is going wrong



#MyLayManView cheesy wink

What is going wrong is the rigged and roguish political structure of 36 states - with 19 states plus Abuja in one time ONE northern region, but only 17 states in one time THREE southern regions.

That structure gave rise to Born to Rule group in the north which southerners must always worship. Born to Rule group can always gather most of the north and buy up a few states in the south for any vote to always remain on top.

The political structure was successively created by Yakubu Gowon, Muritala Mohammed, Ibrahim Babangida and Sani Abacha.

Abubakar regime forced the 1999 constitution which makes it nearly impossible for civilians to recreate a new political structure for Nigeria.

Keep quite. GEJ built the first Federal University in a State that has produced two presidents in the past (Buhari & Yar'adua). So give it up for GEJ. GEJ till 2019.
What is the essence of establishing new universities when, in effect, there are less qualified teachers to instruct at the extant ones? Place more emphasis on substance not numbers so that our universities will stop churning out certified illiterates like GEJ. Take for instance his statement: "we're diverse in terms of different human species." Not only that, the illiteracy is congenital. It started from his parents who named him "Goodluck" as there is no English word like that.

Shame on APC. Even the WASC we cannot verify, APC is just showing us Pictures. That fraudulent Political party are just banking on the millions of blind votes that Buhari will bring from the people he and his likes has kept impoverished, uneducated and has used the weapon of Religion (sharia) to oppress over the years. I just feel sorry for enlightened Nigerians that will vote this man next month.

APC says he has experience. Now lets look at his experience

Military Governor, North Eastern State of Nigeria, August 1975 – March 1976;


Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, December 1983 – August 1985

Now can someone tell me the remote cause of Insecurity in the North East.? If that illiterate mallam value education, BokoHaram would not have surfaced in the first place because he would have made efforts on Education both as governor and head of State in this region.

Dear ethnic bigot, take a map of Nigeria and look at the relative land masses of the North & South of Nigeria. That the North has 19 states compared to the 17 in the South is not too unbelievable.
Your initial assertion is faulty therefore your whole 'story' is despicable.

God forbid! I will never pray to God for such tainted "achievements". Can't you see where mediocrity and subtlety has landed him now? He's the only General who allegedly failed all the military exams he attempted in Nigeria, no wonder it was his deputy (Idiagbon) that virtually ran his 2-year reign as head of state. Buhari's case can be likened to that of so many Nigerians who are brandishing certificates from exams written for them by paid writers. They are the most vibrant shouters of "change" today. If that's the way you want your life to be channeled, then badluck to you!

Next month's election is getting interesting by the day as INEC released this shocking spreadsheet that detailed the educational qualifications of all 14 presidential aspirants. APC's Muhammadu Buhari, from the list just has a WASC qualification (he claims his other certificates are with the military) whereas his running mate Prof Osinbajo has an LLB Law degree and a BL. PDP's President Jonathan has a PhD (Zoology) and vice president Sambo has a masters degree (Architecture)

Something is wrong here, I thought they said he didn't have any certificate. So now INEC is admitting he has WASC, seems like INEC and PDP are finally realizing that propaganda won't work this time. Buhari might not have a PHD like Uncle Jona but he is a 100 times the man Jona is. He is a man capable of making decisions and sticking with it. People let me ask you, what is the purpose of a PHD when you allow yourself to be bullied by members of your government. Jona lacks the balls of a leader, the countless lives lost due to Boko Haram could have reduced significantly if Jona did the needful. How hard is it to equip the military? How hard is it to use the billions of foreign aides to develop a strategic plan to secure lives up there? Is it that Nigeria does not have the money or is it that the true sponsors of Boko Haram are part of Jona's government? I remember Jona calling Boko Haram members our brothers, what type of brothers kill their fellow family members. No Jona, they are not our brothers, they see us as preys and they as predators. We need a president who won't surround himself with lazy, inactive and corrupt government officials but one with the track record of action and development. Nigerians vote wisely, resist propaganda, be wary of religious/tribal distractions, vote for the much needed change; enough is enough!

The APC are smart, they have effectively killed any attempt that the PDP may make to stop Buhari from becoming President via the court on this issue.

Not that he does not have a higher qualification, but one that is water-tight under the law.

(1) Think of the kind of nation the
colonial masters bequeathed to us
before leaving. They instituted
different political, social and legal
system in the North and South, but
still ran the country as one and left
us without any attempt at righting
the wrongs they’ve instituted.
(2) Think of the pogroms in the
North against the Igbo and
Southerners. What were the reasons
for this? There was no reason more
than that the Igbo and Southerners
were seen as taking over the
economy and geographical space of
the Northerner in a supposed one,
free Nigeria.
(3) Think of the First Republic and
the issues that led to its demise.
These issues ranged from the
obvious injustices perpetrated at the
centre by a majoritarian oligarchy,
which then led to electoral violence
in the West and national distrust in
the Niger-Delta.
(4) Think of beginning of military
intervention in politics and the cost
to the nation:
(a) The First Coup of January 1966
and the real motivation of the chaps
behind it.
(b) The coming of Major-General
Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi and the
counter-coup that saw his death and
the mass killing of Igbo officers
within the army, including the
pogrom that followed up North.
(c) The Civil War and the cost in
human and material resources to the
nation. Was it necessary? Why the
waste? What have we learnt? Think
of the Asaba and Owerri massacres
(Buhari was part of the latter)?
Were they necessary? What have we
learnt from that war?
(5) Think of the whole nine years of
General Yakubu Gowon, the seven
months of General Murtala
Muhammed, the four years of Shehu
Shagari. The almost two years of
Buhari, the eight years of General
Ibrahim Babangida, the five years
of General Sani Abacha, the one
year of Abdulsalami Abubakar and
the two years of Umaru Yar’Adua.
For almost 40 years of the 54 that
we have had flag independence, the
North has ruled the nation, but what
did their leadership do for Nigeria?
Why is the Northern elite now hell-
bent on taking back power at the
top? How long have they been out
of it that they now want it back?
What did they do with it for their
people when they had it?
(6) Think about June 12 and the
murder of MKO Abiola. Imagine the
opportunity our country had at that
juncture in our history and who
truncated it. Who are the
beneficiaries of the truncation
of June 12, but Buhari and the
industrial-military complex that
backs him now as members of the
APC?
(7) For the Yoruba, think about the
power you have now and how to use
it responsibly. When Obafemi
Awolowo had it, he used it
responsibly and this nation is
grateful for it. For those who are
hailing Bola Tinubu as some kind of
political genius, do they think
Tinubu is safe under a Buhari
presidency as he has been under
Jonathan? Do they not see how
easy it would be for Buhari to pluck
out Tinubu in a power tussle over
control of the APC under the guise
of fighting corruption? Do they think
there is anything a Vice President
Yemi Osinbajo can do in the
circumstances? What would be the
fate of the Yoruba at that point?
(cool Think about the National
Question and what this false change
would mean for the Southern
minorities and the nation. Since the
Willink Commission of 1958, their
troubles have been in the front
burner of national discussion and we
have shouted ourselves hoarse for a
Sovereign National Conference
(SNC). Whether we want to believe
it or not, Jonathan’s presidency sort
of doused the raging fire, so what
would his ouster do? Think about
the Orkar Coup of 1992 and what
motivated those young men now lost
to the firing squad.
(9) For the Yoruba, think about
those who today mostly populate the
highest and middle level echelon of
the oil industry. They are not
Niger-Deltans; they are young
Yoruba professionals and Tinubu who
worked with Mobil knows this. Are
you prepared to sacrifice them and
their career to install a Buhari who,
from his actions and utterances, look
bent on dipping the Koran in the
sea in the form of establishing
Sharia all over Nigeria? Does
anyone think the South-South will
sit down and share the oil wealth
with a nation of the sort Buhari has
in mind? Does anyone really think
Buhari has the temperament to hold
a complex Nigeria together?
(10) To the Northerners, think about
what we are already seeing about
Buhari on the campaign trail. Does
he look like a healthy person? His
gaunt, austere look is not just about
his stature. The man is old and ill
and this campaign will take a lot
from him. If, God forbid, he does
not survive this campaign or his first
term where would that put this
country? Does anyone think that the
power-mongers of the North will
simply stand by and let the Vice
President take over constitutionally?
Are we prepared to go through the
Yar’Adiua experience again,
especially this time when they are
likely to be more desperate? What
would it mean for those in the North
who think it’s their turn to take
over, rather than wait till 2019
when they are likely to have a more
vibrant candidate with real national
appeal contesting for the presidency
and with a chance to win and
govern in peace?
(11) Think of Buhari as the head of
state and how he ran the nation.
The day he was overthrown, I was
at the parade ground at the
Orientation Camp in Toro, Bauchi
where I was serving my NYSC. I
remember that the chap who was our
Commandant was a young Captain
said to be a cousin to Brigadier
Joshua Dongoyaro who announced
the overthrow. His second-in-
command was then Lieutenant Ugo
Buzugbe who is today a Major
General. Once word reached us of
the overthrow, the whole camp went
agog with jubilation! On the day, I
was delegated by my friends to go
to Jos to buy some things for a
party we were planning. I got there
and the whole city was jubilating!
We heard of spontaneous jubilation
all over the country. Today, some
brilliant, but devious spin-doctors
are painting Buhari as a great
leader who is now making us feel
nostalgia for his time! Only fools
who would want to be treated like
animals and butchered without
reason would look at Buhari and say
he is the change we need. Yes, we
might need change, but not Buhari!
We are not a cursed people! We
should never go back to our national
vomit!
(12) Think about his manifesto and
what he offers. Is there anything
there that he can do better than
Jonathan? He talks about fighting
corruption, but Buhari is a corrupt
man being shielded by spin-doctors!
The facts of his corruption are
there! How can anyone believe the
lies about his poverty? What poor
man contests every presidential
election since 2003 in such a
grandiose manner? Can’t we see the
corrupt people he consorts with and
those interested in sending him to
Aso Rock? Does that add up?
(13) Think about this fellow who has
been a recurrent name in Nigerian
politics since his overthrow by his
military colleagues, but who cannot
tell us one good cause he has put
his name or his money in. Where
are the charities he supports? What
business is he involved in? What
has he been doing with almost N30
million he receives monthly as
gratuity? How has he improved
himself since leaving office? Why
can he not just tender his First
School Leaving Certificate, rather
than lying and getting others to lie
for him? How many scholarships has
he awarded, even as we know that
his daughter lives the high life in a
UK university where she pays more
than £16,000 as school fees? How
many university chairs has he
endowed? How many professional
bodies does he support? How many
international missions has he helped
with? All we have seen him do since
is go to BBC Hausa, say some
inciting and divisive things and
when called out, he proclaims
innocence and accuses journalists of
misinterpreting him.
(14) Think about his support for
Boko Haram and the group
nominating him as their
representative in negotiation with
the Federal Government. Why did he
cowardly refuse to be part of the
negotiation when he’s spent the
whole time attacking the Nigerian
Army and the Federal Government
over Boko Haram? Does anyone
think the present Nigerian Army
would accept this type of
untrustworthy and divisive figure as
Commander-in-Chief? After all,
following the annulment of the June
12 election, one of the reasons
Babangida said they couldn’t hand
over to MKO Abiola was because he
wouldn’t have been accepted as
Commander-in-Chief. Buhari was
one of the beneficiaries of that
annulment. I can’t see him being a
good Commander-in-Chief. As bad
as it sounds, he will do the same
mistakes he did the first time and
worse and Nigerians would be
reduced to jubilating again when a
coup topples him. Egypt after the
electoral victory of the Muslim
Brotherhood comes to mind. And that
would be the least terrible of all
choices we can get.
(15) Think of Buhari who has no
idea of modern governance. Only
dishonest people will believe
otherwise. Listen to him and see
how vacuous he is. No matter how
they try to hide his illiteracy, it’s
glaring. He has now joined Twitter,
because of election, but what does
he really know about modern
communication? His best phrase is
“I will fight….” No, governance is
not about fighting; it’s about
governing. I don’t want to hear
people tell me he would surround
himself with the best brains,
because anyone without a brain
ruling Nigeria will not know the best
brains and even when they are
there, a man with the ignorant
stubbornness of Buhari will not
listen to them or know how to use
them.
(16) Think of the world we live in
and the kind of leadership driving
developments in other lands. Think
of us in 2015 celebrating a Buhari
as our President! The country of
Tafawa Balewa, Nnamdi Azikiwe and
Obafemi Awolowo celebrating a
Buhari in 2015? Some may say
Jonathan is not better, but that
would be unfair. Jonathan is far
better, even if he is not the best
we can offer as a nation. Forget the
propaganda that he has not done
anything, he has. His administration
has achieved a lot and those who
are honest know this. Indeed, his
administration has achieved more
for the North than any Northern
leader in our history. His problem is
that he does not have good
marketers. Whatever minuses we
think Jonathan has, Buhari will
triple them.
(17) Think of the Boko Haram
menace and understand that it is
not a question of Jonathan failing
on national security, but a huge
sabotage against our nation by
elements looking to benefit from his
ouster. One of the worst things done
to our nation by that buffoon,
Olusegun Obasanjo was the
emasculation of our armed forces.
He did it when he came into power
in 1999 under the pretext that he
was professionalizing the army and
stopping them from planning coups.
His Ministers of Defence, Theophilus
Danjuma and Rabiu Kwankwaso
oversaw the destruction of the army,
even as massive money was voted in
the defence budget. Of course, we
had no threat. By the time that
threat came in the form of Boko
Haram, Yar’Adua dealt with it with
overwhelming force. But that was the
problem. Yar’Adua ordered the
killing of Boko Haram activists
extra-judicially, but that only
earned them international
recognition from Global Jihad. With
external money and training, they
were transformed and under
Jonathan, they became the Nigerian
franchise of Global Jihad. Then in
collaboration with Northern power-
mongers they began a process of
blackmailing Jonathan. He asked for
negotiation, they would not budge;
he promised them amnesty, they
would not budge. They simply
continue to kill defenseless citizens
at will, because they know that will
undermine Jonathan and the state.
They support this with propaganda,
inflating number of casualties and
working with their political partners
to undermine the state and state
response at all levels. Meanwhile,
when the nation had the OPC
problem in the West, Yoruba leaders
went out there to sort it out. When
we had problems with Bakassi Boys
in the East, Igbo leaders rose to
the challenge and when we had the
militancy in the Niger-Delta, South-
South leaders, including Goodluck
Jonathan went into the creeks to
talk the boys into disarming. Now,
what have the Northern leaders
done about Boko Haram since it
started its rampage? Some wring
their hands helplessly, while others
like Buhari make political capital out
of it! Of course, all Boko Haram
wants now is a Northern president
who would establish Sharia all over
Nigeria and Buhari will give them
that. But what that means is that
they used the power of their guns
to impose on us a national
leadership that would take us back
to the Middle Ages. I have no
scruples with Buhari and his kith
and kin that want criminal Sharia,
but they cannot impose it on the
rest of the nation above our
Constitution. I will not vote for my
own death! I will not vote for my
people’s death! I will not vote to
take Nigeria through the darkness
that I know a Buhari presidency
represents!
(18) Think about the fact that we
lost more people to communal, ethnic
and sectarian violence under
Obasanjo, including deaths by
political assassinations, yet everyone
is conveniently forgetting this fact
and proclaiming Jonathan a
weakling. Would we prefer that
Jonathan and the military give
communities the Odi and Zaki Biam
treatment in the name of fighting
Boko Haram?
(19) Think about the National Youth
Service Corps members and the
almost 1000 people that lost their
lives up North after the last
presidential election simply because
Buhari did not win. Did Buhari’s
reaction at the time show him as a
statesman? Did it show him as
someone who cares for the life of
Southerners? Is that not the same
man who has promised that dogs
and baboons would be soaked in
blood if the election is rigged this
time, which in fact is a code word
for massive violence if he loses?
(20) Think Nigerians! Those of you
North and South who love this
country and who know what we have
sacrificed to get here should think
of the future. It’s okay to think it’s
great removing an incumbent, but
think what will replace that
incumbent. It’s okay to preach
change, but please interrogate that
change. Is it really the change we
need or a pretence to change that
would impose a worse future on us?
If the potential for trouble in that
new future is worse than the
present, stick to what you know. The
devil you know is always better than
the angel that you don’t know!
Those who say if Buhari fails, we
will vote him out in four years
should remember that we might not
have that luxury, because there has
to be a living, viable nation before
we can talk elections. A word is
enough for the patriot!
