Buhari: The Only Leader Ever Who Voted Against His Nation by fun4: 11:26pm On Jan 22, 2015 |
But for this election maybe I would not have read and known certain things that alledgedly happened in this nation. Of course I read about the $50,000,000 LAGOS RAIL PROJECT said to have been canceled and an alledged $500,000,000 paid as fine instead, but not this. Could this have really happened in Nigeria? By Uzor Maxim Uzoatu “I remember in 1985 in Africa Hall that he was for confirmation of Dr Peter Onu of Nigeria, who was acting Secretary General but Nigeria’s Head of State Gen Muhammadu Buhary was adamant in his support of Niger’s candidate, Idi Omaro, a Fulani Muslim. In a meeting, a handful of Presidents led by Nyerere met with Gen Buhary and Nwalimu begged him: ‘Please give us Peter!’ Buhary refused and forgot even to be courteous to his old peers. What was astonishing, when the vote was in favour of Niger’s candidate, the Nigerian Head rejoiced to such a degree that he was unable to control his emotions. That was a moment I witnessed and was convinced that General Buhary would not last long as a leader.” –--- The OAU: Reality Or Fiction by Ibrahim Daggash, former Head of Information and Communication, Organization of African Unity (OAU); pg 69; ISBN 1-9044722-25-3 It is unheard-of in history that a self-respecting leader of a country would vote against his country’s candidate in international diplomacy. But here, you have it in black and white, in a book, that former Head of State General Muhammadu Buhari would rather have a Fulani Muslim candidate from Niger instead of Nigeria’s own esteemed Dr. Peter Onu. Not even the highly revered then President of Tanzania, Julius Nyerere could make Buhari to change his mind. This kind of bizarre shamelessness is why Nigeria is the laughing stock of the civilized world. It is unthinkable that any leader, anywhere would insult his own country by backing an opponent from another country.

fun4:I usually don't do this, and I sicerely apologise but I think it's worthy of giving thoughts to: APC has been consistent in saying that PDP has ruled Nigeria for 16 disastrous years in which corruption, impunity, insurgency, armed robbery and several ills of society held sway. But at a very close look at the APC, I am seeing: 1)Rotimi Amaechi – 8 years speaker; 7 year, Governor under PDP. 2)Atiku Abubakar – 8 years Vice president under PDP. 3)George Akume – 8 years Governor under PDP. 4)Bukola Saraki – 8 years Governor; 2 years, Senator under PDP. 5)Timipre Sylver – 4 years Governor under PDP. 6)Audu Ogbe – 2 years National Chairman of the PDP. 7)Aminu Masari – 4 years as the Speaker, House of Representatives under PDP. ![]() Kwankwaso – 7 years Governor; 3 years Defense minister under PDP. 10)El Rufai – 4 years FCT Minister; 2 years BPE Chairman under PDP. 11)Tambuwal-3ye ars as Speaker House of Reps under PDP; and to cap it all, Obasanjo is the navigator of the APC, a man who spent 8 of the disastrous 16 years as the maximum ruler of Nigeria. It is now clear that APC is a waste basket of the PDP, where the people who created and perpetuated the 16 disastrous years are now dumped. So where is the change coming from? Are they now saints because they joined APC? Pls be WISE & VOTE not for those seeking power by force :- . Kindly confirm if this is true. 14 Likes 1 Share |

I have learnt a lot from the Buhari certificate monomania. Since it happened i started looking for all my certificate. Infact I left home for class late today to make sure I have safely kept the receipt for my jamb form, post ume slip,lecture notes, textbook, photos infact my signing out white vest too. Who knows anybody may request for it. If someone who schooled before independence can be asked to present his certificate who am i?If you are lucky enough to still have your secondary school uniform and sandal please keep dem. Who knows, any clueless person can ask for it. 3 Likes |

Jeez! A head of state voting against his own country? No wonder He was overthrown. If this is not cluelessness,I wonder what we'd call it. What was His reason for voting against Nigeria? I think this deserves a spot at the front page. If not for anything,Nigerians should have info about this. In the event that He eventually wins the election,becomes president and starts voting against Nigeria on the international scene,nobody should act surprised. 3 Likes |

Nigerian Federal Government has suspended US $8.3 billion Lagos-Kano rail project awarded to Chinese Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) by former president Olusegun Obasanjo. Yar'Adua suspended Obj rail project and this project wasn't kickstarted again until 2 years after with the same contractor even though the project had guaranteed funding from the ECA. This project would have probably been completed now if yaradua hadn't suspended it. Crying over Buhari cancellation at a time nigeria was heavily indebted with no savings is shedding foolish tears. There is a reason behind Yar'Adua's suspension. Same for Buhari |

From the metro rail project to fela, ekwueme, certificate, tai solarin, jim nwobodo and the likes. You can go on and on till feb 14 if you like but it still won't change anything.

APC leaders know Nigerian youths don't read, so they don't have a clear vision of the kind of leader to vote for. Vote wisely. |

The demon truly hates Nigerians, particularly those of southern extraction; his tribalism, divisive and extremist tendencies has never been in doubt. He perpetrated selective justice, allowing his kit and kin to go off the hook for offences where southerners would be made to face capital punishment. His records of hate and selective brutality are still staring us in the face It is the terror that some gangs are currently painting as a saint, messiah, incorruptible, change, etc. Today, they are forcing northerners with different political idealogy to accept and support him under duress, or be classified as pagans, infidel, kafir, etc supporting Buhari would amount to insulting the sensibility and memory of Nigerians, and allowing the many evils he wrecked on Nigerians to go unquestioned 3 Likes |

Funny, when you campaign in a forum like this leave a campaign gimmick for your kinsman at home and bring the right one to the larger public. It just like calling someone Aboki or nyamuri or ofenmanu and think you are campaigning because you are from the south south. No you are foolishly alienating four possible friends because the neutrals will also be offended. Multiply it buy the number of people that view the thread and you will find out it was a foolish joke. |
