FG To Prevent APC From Forming Parallel Government by ShowYourCertificate: 8:07am On Jan 27, 2015 |
The Presidency on Sunday said it would resist any attempt by the All Progressives Congress (APC) to form a parallel government should President Goodluck Jonathan get elected in next month’s presidential election.http://dailypost.ng/2015/01/27/fg-prevent-apc-forming-parallel-government/ 16 Likes 1 Share |

So what FG is saying is that elections will be rigged and APC will be prevented from forming parallel government? If APC failed to form parallel government if the election is rigged then we the Nigerians might adopt Bokina Faso solution.This same FG made sure the lawyers called off their strike because of Buhari and failed to convince the Doctors to do so.If Jonathan will win(God forbid)let him win convincingly, else the government is calling for another wéti é.Simple. 54 Likes 1 Share |

Goodluck Jonathan ended the subsidy fraud... Goodluck Jonathan deregulated the Power Sector and ended the fraudulent NEPA contracts. He removed ghost workers from civil service and reduce ill gotten wealth. By 2015 ending, the majority of the Oil Block licenses ill gotten by the Northerners during the Military regime will expire; Goodluck Jonathan has refused to renew the oil blocks license in order to re-award it to deserving Nigerians and the south- south rightful owners too. Now they have brought in a Buhari in order to fulfill their lust for Oil and Power. Yet people are blinded by fake promise of Change #smh Goodluck Jonathan has also handed NPA verification to a third party and eliminated port frauds. It hurt them He stopped the bootlegging in fertilizer distribution. Goodluck Jonathan hurt them by making sure they don't hoard petroleum product and Nigerians will sleep at filling stations while they make astronomical profits. Jonathan has pinched them where it hurt most by making sure elections are free and fair & they can't impose their candidates on us. He hurt the cabal by looking into their face and telling them NO Sir! Now they ganged up against him... They cant prevail against God's choosen one. Goodluck Jonathannever struggled to get to Asorock, God took him there and God is the ONLY one that can take him out of there and not these sycophants and fake-Change agents.

IT WILL DEFINITIVELY HAPPEN IF ANYONE RIGS THIS ELECTION WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT. OTHERWISE, THE MILITARY WILL JUST TAKE CONTROL. Anybody that says GEJ has not done anything is surely a hypocrite. But, all these achievements are not LAUDABLE. For God's sake, Is it there father's money they used to do it? It is not tax payers money? We gave them the mandate to serve us and to manage our money. You and I pay tax directly and indirectly everyday. You bought a fairly used car for four hundred thousand naira and you would have to pay about two hundred thousand naira again (custom duties, insurance, plate number, blablabla) to be able to drive it. The revenue our leaders generate everyday is just too much compared to what we are given back. We pay service charge of N750 to PHCN monthly whether we see light or not and many other ways Govt just extort from us daily. Quoting from all the things you listed as GEJ's achievement in six years is a tip of the iceberg of what can be achieved of a selfless and good leader. GEJ refurbished trains of the 1970s with the same amount of money Japan and South Africa used to make X3 new ones. GEJ built fed unis that are not well equipped and sponsored. Have you been to any of the newly built fed unis? I have been to two recently, fut kebbi and fut Oye for Job interviews. All you will mostly see are big painted empty structures. One thing I just hate Nigerians do is, when i see them praise leaders that have stolen 1000 naira and give them 10 naira back. When is all these nonsense going to stop? I AM NOT SAYING THAT GEJ IS THE ALL-CORRUPT. Corruption is everywhere in this country which many top civil servants, bosses, legislators and other government officials are responsible for but, WHAT IS GEJ BEING THE PRESIDENT DOING ABOUT IT Today; this is a country police men collect bribe from people in the open! this is a country where some people will be asked to pay about N150,000 just to get civil defense, police, army, e.t.c job! This is a country where it has been very hard for our leaders to IMPLEMENT the N18,000 minimum wage that has been passed in the national assembly for the past two years yet, OUR LEGISLATORS AND OTHER GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVES COLLECT THE HIGHEST SALARIES IN THE WORLD with many ridiculous allowances! This is country where a governor will refuse to pay workers salary yet, he will do a 20 million naira ridiculous advert for GEJ's re-election. This a country where INEC can not provide us enough PVC for the past three months yet, they made a budget of 75 billion naira! For God's sake, HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO MAKE A PLASTIC I.D CARD? As far as I'm concerned, GEJ is a disappointment. He promised to give us stable electric power in four years and he has spent more than six years now. OBJ squandered about 20 billion dollars in eight years in the course, GEJ has also spent about 30 billion dollars in the course too in the last six years with no result. WHY IS IT HARD FOR OUR GOVERNMENT TO GIVE US STABLE POWER IN THIS COUNTRY In the last 14 years now, about 50 billion dollars has been stolen and wasted on power project. TEXAS is just a single state in the U.S bigger than Nigeria in size. Their power generating plant only cost two billion dollars to make! WHAT IS HAPPENING TO NIGERIA We all just need to think beyond tribe and religion when selecting leaders. I have said it before and will say it again that: giving GEJ another four years will only make things worse. A leader that said stealing is not corruption. A leader that condemned Buhari's regime for imprisoning a THIEF! (Nwobodo). I have seen someone burnt alive just for stealing a mobile phone not worth than N20,000. WHAT WE REALLY NEED IN THIS COUNTRY NOW IS REVOLUTION!!! Never the less, GMB is just a better option we have for now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?x-yt-ts=1421914688&x-yt-cl=84503534&v=619ia_Xe-TA&feature=player_embedded 38 Likes 6 Shares |

APC said "IF THE ELECTION IS RIGGED" and we stand by APC on this. PDP/GEJ should rig the election and be ready to contend with the multitude of problems that will befall them. This is a valid threat and very logical. Compare this with the threats of the Niger-Delta militants to blow pipelines to the north if GEJ is not supported. Why do we hold election then if we all MUST support their "son"? Useless people. 18 Likes 1 Share |

Shocking Atrocities Committed By APC’s Presidential Candidate General Muhammadu Buhari 1. Buhari was in full support of all the atrocities of Sani Abacha against the Nigerian people. There is no single record of his criticism of Sani Abacha during those dark days when Nigeria was on precipice. It shows that he is a patriot of convenience. In fact On the 10th anniversary of Abacha’s demise, Buhari said that Abacha stole nothing from Nigeria! Despite millions of Dollars recovered from banks around the world and the Abacha family signing a formal agreement to return over $1 billion dollars, Buhari still said that, Abacha’s stealing remains an unproved allegation!!!! Why? Because Abacha set Buhari up like an emperor and let him use oil money from theNiger Delta to develop the North without supervision or questions. 2. He supervised the smuggling of 53 suitcases filled with cash through the MMA against the protest of General Tunde Idiagbon and ironically,Abubakar Atiku, the then Director General of Customs, who later became the Vice President and a compromised politician himself. This smuggling of the suit cases were supervised by buharis ADC, Col. Mustapha Jokolo 3. That obnoxious Decree 4 by buhari, against which truth was no defence, was used to jail journalists, an attempt to shut-up the media as a whole. That tyrannical legislation of buhari shows the essence of his intolerance…..He jailed Ndukar Irabor and Tunde Thompson of “The Guardian” on stories that were factually true. He again told Nigerian journalists then that, it did not matter whether the story reported was true or not, if his regime did not like it, the writer would go to jail. facts of recent history. 4. Mrs. Vera Ifudu, who was an NTA reporter, was sacked on Buhari’s orders as military ruler, for reporting what Dr. Olusola Saraki had told her in an interview about how the missing, $2.8 Billion money, while buhari was petroleum minister, was traced to Buhari’s account at Midland Bank, London branch. In view of this, OBJ scraped PTF over Buhari’s misappropriation. Vera eventually won her case in court after providing evidence, and was financially compensated. 5. He convinced all the northern political leaders against allowing the National Identity card program because according to him, this would unravel the myth of Northern population majority. 6. He has never been able to account to Nigerians what he did with the 20 billion Naira of the Petroleum Trust Fund of which he was the chairman under Sani Abacha. Also, He has not been able to point to any project he prosecuted outside Northern Nigeria with the trust fund. 7. Buhari, as part of his tribalistic practices, placed President Shagari under house arrest inside a palatia mansion in Ikoyi, while he locked up Shagari’s Vice, Alex Ekwueme in Kirikiri Prison.Shagari is Hausa/Fulani like him while Alex Ekwueme is an Igboman. 8. Ikemba Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, another Igboman who had just returned from 13 years of exile in 1982, following a pardon by then president, Shehu Shangri, was as well locked up in Kiri-Kiri Prison by Buhari. Till this day, we are not told what Ojukwu’s offence was. 9. Buhari discriminated against persons from other ethnic groups/faiths; and as PTF chairman, he employed an overwhelming numberof Fulani/ Hausa/Moslem people at the detriment of other groups and concentrated PTF projects in theNorth. If in doubt, read El Rufai’s book. 10. Buhari snubbed the same Nigerians he now wants their votes by refusing to appear before Justice Oputa “Truth and Reconciliation Panel.” Despite the fact that Buhari knew how important reconciliation is to the stability of democracy, buhari has never apologised at anytime. 11. Buhari after locking up Sam Mbakwe, who was governor of Imo State, from October 1, 1979 to Dec 31, 1983 in jail, he went for one of Mbakwe’s wives. He established himself for what he was/is letting Mbakwe receive in jail, news of the death of another of Mbakwe’s two wives. 12. He is an Islamic fundamentalist, who told his northern followers never to vote for anyone who was not a muslim and he is a coup plotter who overthrow a civilian government. 13. He is an oligarch who does not believe in equality before the law. The way he jailed Lateef Jakande, Jim Nwobodo, Pa Adekunle Ajasin, Chief Ayo Ojewumi on cases that had no foundation and allowed Awwal Ibrahim, the then Niger State governor, who was arrested in Heath row Airport in London with 14 million (Pounds sterling) and several millions of Naira and dollars to be under house arrest is my evidence. (Ayo Ojewumi became blind as a result of his imprisonment over false charges and died shortly after) 14. Against all canons of legal decency, Buhari executed Lawal Ojuolape (30), BernardOgedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26). To put it quite plainly, one of those three –Ogedengbe – was executed for a crime that did not carry a capital forfeit at the time it was committed. 15. After the military government of Major-General Muhammadu Buhari took power, Prof Ambrose Ali, one time governor of (Bendel) state, who had already retired from politics, was arrested and sentenced to 100 years in prison by buhari’s military tribunal over trumped up charges. He was finally freed when the Esama of Benin, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, paid a fine to buhari’governme nt. Ambrose Ali died shortly after his release. 16. Gen Buhari allowed Shehu Kangiwa, the then Sokoto State Governor from 1979-1981, who conducted and supervised the famous “Bakolori Massacre” of poor peasant farmers, whose lands were seized without compensation, to remain under a very comfortable house arrest, without punishment or proper imprisonment. 17. In 2011 Buhari’s CPC loyalists massacred and lynched Nigerian youth corpers after the last election. A refined politician is expected to tender an apology on behalf of the ignorant loyalists, buhari refused to apologise. He said, the mob were angry because they felt the election was rigged. Is that sufficient to take the life of another? 18. Buhari pretended to have forgotten, his CPC party, rigged the election by registering under aged voters. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. 19. On the 4th of September, 1984, minutes before leaving Nigeria for an extensive tour of the US, Fela Anikulapo Kuti was arrested at the airport of Lagos on orders of Buhari and was jailed for 5 years, on bogus charges under emergency law initiated by dictator buhari, which prompted the sentencing judge to later confess that, he was ordered to do so and apologized to Fela. Get Fela’s (Army Arrangement) song for more expose’. 20. Mallam El-rufai who now sings buhari’s praise famously said on Oct, 5th 2010 that ” General Buhari is perpetually unelectable because his record as military head of state and afterwards, is a warning that many nigerians in the past have wisely heeded. His insensitivity to Nigeria’s diversity and his parochial focus are already well- known.” El-Rufai again said: “I was 25 years old when Buhari was Head of State and now am 50+ and he still wants to be President, i don’t understand that, i don’t understand that at all and I call on young people of Nigeria to take their future into their hands and ensure in the next election, they vote for a new generation of leaders. A leopard can never, ever change it’s spots. Nigerians, do not be deceived,vote wisely. Facts and not fiction. Nigerians, behold the real buhari 14 Likes 2 Shares |

20 REASONS WHY NIGERIANS HAVE REJECTED BUHARI SINCE 2003 By Silk O Austin For the Career Buharists, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) is the “messiah”. Any attempt to set the records straight by highlighting the dark days of Buhari is viewed by these people as being paranoid. They would ask you, who is scared of Buhari if not corrupt people? In the real sense of it, I don’t think anyone (including a kid from my home town) is scared of Buhari. Some of us that talk about him do so to establish the facts because he has been living an image-laundered life. Within these few days, lots of people have seen that Buhari didn’t build any refinery for Nigeria. He has no legacy despite ruling the country with iron- fist for almost 2 years. He is indeed corrupt as shown by this article and again, no Igbo have worked or working for Buhari, neither did any Igbo marry his daughter. These are the laundered image he has been living on for a long time now. Facts are sacred, but not to the Career Buharists. To them, Buhari is God’s ‘gift’ to mankind and the most popular politician that can solve our numerous problems in a jiffy. Behind these accolades from his admirers, is a man that has lost presidential elections three times consecutively. In 2003, over 24 million Nigerian rejected him. The same number rejected him in 2007 and in 2011; about 22 million rejected him. The excuse has been that, he was rigged out, but facts and figures proved that he is definitely unelectable as shown below: Northwest (Buhari’s strongest base) - 6,453, 437 (60%) voted for Buhari and3,395,724 (32%) for Jonathan Southeast – 20, 560 voted for Buhari and 5, 661, 177 (97%) for Jonathan Northeast - 3,624,919 (62%) voted for Buhari and 1,832,622 (32%) for Jonathan South-south – 49, 978 voted for Buhari and 6, 112, 608 (95%) for Jonathan Southwest - 321, 609 voted for Buhari and 2, 786, 417 for Jonathan North-central – 1, 744, 575 voted for Buhari and 3, 376, 570 for Jonathan Further analysis shows that, in Buhari’s State – Katsina, he scored 1, 163, 919votes and Jonathan got 428, 392 votes. But in Jonathan’s State – Bayelsa, he scored only 691 votes while Jonathan got 504, 811 votes. Mere looking at the figures proves that Buhari is unelectable or does it mean that Jonathan also out-rigged him in his region? These millions of Nigerians that have been rejecting him since 2003 despite his ‘popularity’ do so for the following reasons: 1. He Is A Hypocrite And Sanctimonious: Buhari is a self-acclaimed anti-corruption Czar, yet he served under late Sani Abacha without complaining of corruption. In the same period Buhari served as PTF Chairman under Abacha, Nigeria was named the 2nd most corrupt country in the world in 1996 by Transparency International; the most corrupt country in 1997 and 3rdmost country in 1998. Buhari didn’t resign or protest. He dismissed the TI Report with a wave of the hand. Can he do the same if such report says Nigeria is the most corrupt country in 2014? I know that Buhari would protest and call President Jonathan names. Buhari as a man of integrity as he claims should have done what Tai Solarin, DuroOnabule and EbituUkiwe did under IBB’s regime. IBB’s attempt to take Nigeria into the Organization of Islamic Countries (OIC) made his Chief of General Staff, EbituUkiwe to resign. Ukiwe maintained that Nigeria, as a country, should not be a member of a religious organisation. Individual organisation can take up membership of religious organisations, but not the country. IBB made Tai Solarin the chairman of Peoples Bank with no fund and power to run it; he resigned and tendered his apology to Nigerians. Buhari has not apologized to Nigerians for working for the most corrupt government in the world then, but he still maintains that Abacha didn’t loot Nigeria dry even as Abacha loots are still being sent back to Nigeria. When he took over power by the gun, he supported rigging because it favoured him. But now, he is shouting of rigging. Hear him: “The last general election was anything but free and fair. The only political parties that could complain of election rigging are those parties that lacked the resources to rig.” - M. Buhar (First Speech after Military Coup, 31 December, 1983) 2. He Is A Religious Fanatic And Extremist: Buhari believes that his religion is superior to other religions and that Koran supersedes our constitution. In 2001, he gave his total support for Sharia with this statement: “I will continue to show openly and inside me the total commitment to the Sharia movement that is sweeping all over Nigeria. God willing, we will not stop the agitation for the total implementation of the Sharia in the country.”- M. Buhari (August 27, 2001) He made the above statement after he had gone to BBC Hausa Service to condemn the then Vice President, AtikuAbubakar for urging Muslims states who adopted Sharia to return to the status quo. If you think that these statements mean nothing, then envision what would happen if a notable Christian political leader from the south make the same statement about spreading Christianity across Nigeria. Prior to the 2003 elections, he made another shocking statement: “Muslims should only vote those who will promote Islam. We are more than the Christians if you add our Muslim brothers in the West.”- M. Buhari (2003) 3. He Introduced Kidnapping And Smuggling Into The Nigeria System:The story of UmaruDikko is already well known that repeating it here amounts to tautology. However, Buhari and his ADC Col. Mustapha Jokolosupervised the smuggling of 53 suitcases filled with cash against the protests of TundeIdiagbon and ironically, AbubakarAtiku (an APC bigwig), was the former DG of Customs. Do you still need to know why Buhari has never accused Atiku of being corrupt? 4. He Is Not A Man of His Words: Buhari cried in public and said he won’t contest elections again, yet couldn’t keep his words: “This campaign is the third and last one for me; since, after it, I will not present myself again for election into office of the president.” – M. Buhari (April, 2011 at the Int’l Conference Centre, Abuja) Then again in 2014, he swallowed his words with this: “I humbly present myself to all Nigerians and to God, seeking to be elected as APC’s presidential candidate.” - M. Buhari (Oct., 15, 2014 Eagle Square Abuja) 5. He Is An Ethnic Bigot Who Thinks That Vendetta Is Fighting Corruption: After Buhari and his boys overthrew the government of Shagari with the sole reason that the government was highly corrupt, he locked up Dr Alex Ekwueme – the then VP in Kirikiri maximum prison but left Shagari – the president and Head of government in his mansion. Ekwueme was tried by the tribunal set-up by Buhari and the tribunal declared that he was even poorer than he was before he came into office. Yet, Buhari jailed him and allowed Shagari to relax in his mansion. He gave Dede Sam Mbakwe 100-year jail term for stealing nothing and also went after his wife. Ambrose Ali was tried for an undeveloped plot of land and he was jailed for 75 years with heavy torture that led to blindness and later death. Jim Nwobodo and Lateef Jakande were jailed for 100 years for stealing nothing. AdekunleAjasin was tried by a military tribunal and found innocent. Buhari ordered a fresh trial, he was found innocent again. Buhari changed the tribunal and tried him again. He was still found innocent. Buhari still jailed him. But, Buhari left his personal friend – Awwal Ibrahim – the then highly corrupt governor of Niger State who was arrested at Heathrow airport with £14 million. Awwal was never jailed. He was placed under house arrest in his mansion like Shagari for just two weeks and indeed released. 6. He Is A Coupist: Buhari has no moral ground to stand for an election in Nigeria because he’s a destroyer of democracy and can never benefit from it. He overthrew a duly elected government and ruled illegitimately until he was kicked out. For those that claim he was invited, go read the recent interview by Chief Ebenezer Babatope on why Chief Solomon Lar was imprisoned by Buhari. 7. He Doesn’t Talk or Act Like An Elder-statesman: He makes provocative statements that are capable of putting the country in crisis. This attitude caused the death of over 800 innocent lives including about 10 Corp members after he lost the 2011 elections. A man who considers himself as an elder-statesman and wants to rule Nigeria again should not be talking this way: “God willing, by 2015, something will happen. They either conduct a free and fair election or they go a very disgraceful way. If what happened in 2011 should again happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and baboon would all be soaked in blood.” – M. Buhari “2015 will be bloody…” – M. Buhari Buhari snubbed the same Nigerians he now wants their votes by refusing to appear before Justice Oputa Truth and Reconciliation Panel. Buhari knew how important reconciliation is to the stability of democracy, yet he refused to appear before the panel. 8. He Cannot Formulate A Good Economic Policy: True to that, Buhari is the only former Head of State without a legacy. Not even one, despite ruling with iron-fist for 2 years. Someone said, Environmental sanitation is his legacy LOL and I ask, how has that improved our economy? Or is Nigeria now the cleanest country in the world with a booming tourism industry? And again, those that attended his declaration were disappointed as he couldn’t present a manifesto on how he can solve the numerous problems confronting Nigeria. We keep hearing from the Buharists: “I will fight corruption; I will stop corruption; I will end corruption.” How? By mouth? Recall what BBC said about Buhari’s economic policy: “Buhari’s attempts to re-balance public finances by curbing imports led to many job losses and the closure of businesses. These losses were accompanied by a rise in prices and a decline in living standards.” His economic policy started the devaluation of naira. During Shagari/Ekweme’s regime, $1 = N0.550 but before the end of his tenure in 1985, $1 = N0.894. 9. He Clamped Down On The Press: With the infamous Decree 4, he closed down Newspapers, arrested and jailed many journalists such as NdukarIrabor and Tunde Thompson of the Guardian Newspaper on stories that were factual. He told the Nigerian journalists then that it did not matter whether the story reported was true or not, if his regime did not like it, the writer would go to jail. At a point Tai Solarin became the only voice who could speak as he stood at the road corner and was distributing leaflets detailing the various atrocities of Buhari. He arrested and jailed him. In prison, he was denied his asthmatic drug. He was released by IBB and later died of complication from the torture he suffered in prison. 10. He Is Not A Man of Principle And Integrity: Since 2003, Buhari has been jumping from one party to another in his desperate and endless quest to rule Nigeria. He started with ANPP in 2003 to CPC in 2011 and, now in APC. 11. He Has No Regard For Human Rights: Mrs. Vera Ifudu, who was an NTA reporter then, was sacked for reporting what Dr.OlusolaSaraki had told her in an interview about how the missing money was traced to Buhari’s account at Midland Bank London branch. Vera eventually won her case of wrongful dismissal in court against the NTA and was financially compensated. Dim EmekaOdimegwuOjukwu, who returned from 13 years exile, just a little over a year then, was as well locked up in Kirikiri Prison by Buhari. Up till today we were not told what his offence was. BusariAdelakun died of ulcer because Buhari refused him to be taken out of prison for medical attention. The then Gov. of Ogun State, BisiOnabanjo suffered similar fate which we were told led to his untimely death. For using the US$2.8bn to sing, Buhari jailed FelaAnikulapo -Kuti on trumped up charges under emergency law which prompted the sentencing judge to confess that he was ordered to do so and apologised to Fela. It was Buhari’s administration that said it has “decided to deal with this Fela problem once and for all.” Buhari used retrogressive law to execute three Nigerians: LawalOjuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26). One of those three – Ogedengbe – was executed for a crime that did not carry capital punishment at the time it was committed. 12. He Is Corrupt: That a blind man doesn’t see the sun don’t mean the sun is not up in the sky. That Buhari has not been jailed for corrupt practices doesn’t mean he is not corrupt, after-all, nobody has jailed IBB, OBJ etc., yet people say they’re corrupt. Buhari has never been able to account to Nigerians what he did with the N25 billion missing in PTF of which he was the chairman. Shagari incurred Buhari’s wrath when he decided to investigate the US$2.8 billion that disappeared from NNPC account and traced to the Midland Bank, London. Justice Ayo Irikefe panel was set-up and Saraki headed the Senate committee. The following were unequivocally discovered: Firstly, a judicial panel was set up to trace the $2.8billion (Justice Ayo Irikefe panel).Secondly, a senate committee was also set up to trace the $2.8billion (headed by the elder Saraki).The findings of the senate committee were reported live on NTA by Vera Ifudu.Buhari overthrew the government to burn and shred the evidence.Buhari got Vera Ifudu sacked. Vera Ifudu and the NTA went to court.Vera Ifudu won her case, got reinstated and was paid compensation. A man that procured a loan of N27.5million to purchase his presidential form using man-know- man approach is definitely corrupt. Buhari ought to live by example. 13. He Is A Pretender And Deceiver: Buhari claims that he has no foreign bank account, no booming business, no house in Lagos or Abuja. He has 2 houses: one in Katsina and the other in Kaduna. Yet he has been contesting elections since 2003 and pursuing it up to the Supreme Court with his team of SANs. The minimum appearance fee for a SAN at the Presidential election case at the Supreme Court is N25 million. Where did he get this money? Can he tell us his sponsors? He borrowed N27.5 million to buy a form, yet he moves around in Chattered aircraft each time he wants to fly which is costlier than owing one. Buhari is definitely a pretender. 14. He Is A Tribalist: Since his days as a Head of State, he only appointed his people in important positions. As the chairman of PTF, he employed an overwhelming number of Fulani/Hausa/Moslem at the detriment of other groups and concentrated PTF projects in the North. He used the company of his in-law – (Salihijo Ahmad), Afri-Projects Consortium in executed all the projects. He shamelessly executed about 74% of the projects in the north and 26% in the entire south according to PTF Situation Report (Vol 2, 98). 15. He Has Soft-spot For Boko Haram: Buhari made the following statements which support Boko Haram: “The declaration of state of emergency in three Northern states of Adamawa, Borno andYobe is a grave injustice against the North.” – M. Buhari (Liberty Radio, June 2, 2013) “…when the Niger Delta militants started their activities in the South-South, they were invited by the late President UmaruYar’adua. An aircraft was sent to them and their leaders met with the late President in Aso Rock and discussed issues. They were given money and a training scheme was introduced for their members. But when the Boko Haram emerged in the north, members of the sect were killed”. – M. Buhari (Liberty Radio, Kaduna May 14 2012) But on Ombatse, his tone changed because they killed Fulanis: “…But those that killed the 56 security men must be hunted and prosecuted no matter how long it will take because this is the bottom line about law and order, and security in the country. They can’t be forgiven, they can’t override the constitution, Nigerians are being hurt and killed in their duties and those that killed them must be brought before the law.” - M. Buhari 16. He Is Anti-development: Buhari stopped the Lagos metro rail even when the military Administrator for Lagos State, alerted him that on the clause in the contract ($60 million metro rail project) agreement that would yoke the state into debt, if the contract was cancelled unilaterally. He replied: “Mudashiru, I don’t care”. Although the fund for the execution of the project which would have given Lagosians an intra-city light train transport system would not have come from Buhari’s Supreme Military Council, Buhari, cancelled this project of the state government, with ethnicity on his mind. Till date no Nigerian city has metro rail. Buhari out of jealousy of the leadership acumen of Dede Sam Mbakwe, he stopped all the wonderful projects initiated by him in Imo State when he overthrew the Shagari’s govt. Yet, Buhari left the government without a legacy. What a man! 17. He Hates Education: Just like Boko Haram, Buhari is a supporter of the almajir system. No wonder President Goodluck Jonathan is the person that established the first and only federal university in Katsina State – Buhari’s State and 100s almaijiri’s model schools across the northern region. People like Buhari are against the almajiri schools. 18. He Is Weak: It is a fact that TundeIdiagbo was the brain and pillar behind the government of Buhari. No wonder Buhari was thrown out in what was regarded as a Palace Coup when Idiagbo went to Mecca. If Buhari that ruled with absolute power and iron-fist couldn’t protect his government from being overthrown by junior officers, how could he safeguard and protect Nigeria in this turbulent time. 19. He Is A Product of Corruption And Nepotism: The manner and swiftness Buhari rise in the army can only be possible in a system where nepotism reign supreme. At 21, Buhari was cadet trainee; at 23 he was promoted as Commander 2nd Infantry Battalion; at 25 he was appointed Brigade Major, 2 Sector 1st Infantry Division; at 28, he was promoted Brigade Major and Commander, 31st Infantry Brigade; at 29 he was promoted Assistant Adjutant-General 1st Infantry Division Headquarters; at 34 he was appointed the military governor of North-Eastern State; at 39 he was appointed Chairman NNPC and GOC, 3rd Armoured Division, Jos, 1981-83; at 42, he shot his way to Dodan Barracks as Head of State. Most of these promotions were with no further education/ training. Buhari’s kids and people still use Quota system education (to enable them go to school) and federal character for them to get jobs. Imagine when a kid from Ebonyi State needs to score minimum of 112 in Common Entrance exams and another kid from Sokoto (a state that is older than Nigeria), Yobe etc., need only 9 and 2 respectively in the same exam. Remember that these kids wrote the same exam, in the same country, at the same time and answered the same questions. What corruption is worse than this? Yet Buhari has never condemned it. 20. Buhari Is Just Perpetually Unelectable: To those that still think Buhari would one day rule Nigeria again, ask Nasir El-rufai, he has the answer: 10 Likes 3 Shares |
