This is a man that want to manage Nigeria my beloved country. A man who has attained both lower and upper positions of this country, yet he could not manage to set up a well doing business that would have employ a lot of nigetian youths and enable him to raised ordinary 27millions naira for his applicant form. Instead he went to borrowed, while the wife was busy donating 130millions naira to some group. Buhari Nigeria is too big for you
So you will be happy if Buhari had stolen government money to set up businesses where he will show his managerial skills? Get sense.

guy yakubu gowon lt.Col to Gen immediately

Gowon was a war General. There is such a thing called war rank where an officer can assume higher rank based on his competency to lead in the battle field. The case of Gen. Bradley in WW2 comes to mind. Gen. Bradley was junior to Gen. Paton before the War but Bradley was given a war rank and command of allied forces in Europe with Paton under him.

War Ranks can also see an un-commissioned officer commissioned to an officer as was the case in WW2 where officers where in short supply.

Gowon was the commander of the Nigerian Forces in a full fledged war and as such deserved the tittle of General during and after the Biafran campaign. The same for Ojukwu who was a Lt. Colonel before the War. The Nigerian Army has finally recognized Ojukwu as a General.

Buhari claims never to be part of the 1983 coup that overthrew Shagari. He claimed ignorance of the coup i.e. to say that Buhari as a Maj. General was unaware of a plot to overthrow his commander and chief.

Fast-forward 20mths after Shagari's ouster and Buhari's dismal despotic regime, Buhari is still ignorant that a coup is about to be staged to get rid of him. The pic below was at most a few months before Buhari's ouster with one of the prominent figures behind that plot in it.

"Abacha is not quorrruft"

Long before Buhari said that Abacha was not corrupt, the world had been repatriating Abacha loot to Nigerian governments.

I just de pity some etjnic/religious bigoted and senseless groups of Nigerians who Buhari is fooling with his anti- corruption masquerade for now.

Look at Buhari who with Abacha presided over the most corrupt administration ever in Africa's history telling Nigerians that he is an anti-corruption man.

This is a man who understands exactly what to do. Has a track record of victories. And has the political will to keep Nigerians safe across the Federation.

Kidnapper, Terrorists, Militants, Arm Rubbers, Criminals - find something legitimate to do with your life. The next President of Nigeria is NOT into Military-Costume-Wearing. He is a Retired Major General. Trained in Nigeria, India, United Kingdom and the United States. He is an over performer. He is not shy of the Facts. Our Senior Military Commanders will not eat Military budget and clean mouth under his watch.

Don't mind those that tell you that Nigeria Cannot be Changed. That things can't be better. They just want to keep looting. When they exhaust their lies, they will start mocking, insulting and posting cartoons.

While PDP are hoping to rig themselves in, Buhari and the entire APC team believe you have the capacity to elect Buhari with your votes alone. Let see who wins (PDP Rigging vs The Votes of the Masses).

This Change is Unstoppable. Sai Buhari. 5days to go!

He, as a sitting President, personally led his military men against insurgency.

That he'll eradicate Boko haram is s forgone conclusion. And we won't need any coalition either.

Buhari is my second choice.

My first choice is....,,

















a full blown military coup.

Buhari is so incompetent that he couldn't manage his stolen loot.

The $4 billion dollars he stole with Obasanjo in 1978 was recovered by IBB for himself after torturing him in less than one hour,

This is why Buhari hates IBB

Ignoramus.

That was common, if not the norm.

Some even skipped like 4 levels to promote themselves to 4-star general once they became Head of State.

Yakubu Gowon was a Lt Colonel, or at best Colonel - jumped Brigadier Gen, Major Gen, Lt General to become a 4-star General.

IBB was a Major General, jumped Lt Gen to promote himself to 4-star General when he became Head of State.

Only Abacha was a 4-star General before becoming Head of State.

IBB was a Maj. Gen in 1985 when he overthrew Buhari and he spent close to 8yrs in office. Enough time to become a full General.

Abacha was a Big. General in 1985. He spent 5 yrs as a head of state plus close to 8yrs under IBB that is a total of 13yrs before becoming a full General.

I don't blame you. It is ingrained in your upbringing where your parents had to foster good behavior on you through the cane.

This is why you only respect brute force.

We are in the 21st century. WE HAVE A CONSTITUTION and delineation of duties and responsibilities. Gone are the days of a "wise" and all knowing King to oversee all aspect of your life.

Gone are the days of a paternalistic govt who will teleguide every aspect of your life.

Agree with you. If Nigerian s reject Jonathan, let the military take over.

Buhari charged Muslims in Kaduna in 2001 to ensure that unconstitutional and extreme sharia criminal laws that include stoning women to death for adultery and cutting off hands of petty thieves are implemented all over Nigeria.

Boko Haram has consistently maintained that it is fighting for a country friendly with the practice of same sharia criminal laws which Buhari has been asking to be implemented in all of Nigeria.

Buhari told Nigerian Army and government to stop killing terrorists, that their killing of Boko Haram people was like fighting the north of Nigeria. And by then Boko Haram had killed more than 25,000 Nigerians.

Buhari as president cannot fight against Boko Haram
Buhari as president shall make way for more violence to extend Islam with sharia criminal laws to all parts of Nigeria.

A CALL ON THE CONSCIENCE OF THE PEOPLE OF RIVERS STATE
AN ADDRESS DELIVERED BY
ENGR TELE IKURU.
DEPUTY GOVERNOR OF RIVERS STATE
IN RESPECT OF 2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS

My dear People of Rivers State, I bring you honest and sincere greetings.

Today, I address you out of the fullness of my heart. Recall that in December 2013, out of extreme loyalty to my Boss and friend, I joined the All Progressives congress (APC) along with other then disillusioned Rivers People.

Ever since, as the true nature and motives of APC are unveiled, I have continued to twist and turn in extreme mental and emotional agony. The more I struggle to belong,the more the Rivers man in me rejects the APC. After carefully studying, interacting and analyzing the leadership of the party, I have come to the sad conclusion that the APC is a party of rebels, insurgents and anarchists, clothed in robes of pretense and deceit. APC is a party founded on deception and it thrives on unholy propaganda and falsehood.

I therefore, on behalf of my teaming supporters, and my humble self denounce the APC and we all jointly and severally resign our membership of the APC.

My dear people of Rivers State, we of this generation will not in good conscience expect forgiveness and compassion from our forebears, posterity, and the spirit of our unborn generations if it is recorded in the annals of history that after 48 Years of Rivers people supporting leaders from all other parts of this country with our votes and resources, we were the same that witch hunted and hounded down the very first ever President from this region, granted us by providence. I wash my hands off this treachery.

In the light of the above, I wish to urge all My Supporters, the Good People of Rivers State to join hands with other well meaning Nigerians to massively vote for President GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN (GCFR) and the Transformation Agenda that has brought so much relief and succor to the greatest number of Nigerians. I also urge allRivers People to vote for Chief Barr Nyesom Wike (CON), who has shown by his antecedents, track records and boundless capabilities that he will deliver good governance to the People of Rivers State.

Thank You and God Bless You All Abundantly.

In one of his interviews, Buhari actually claimed he had an inkling of IBB's plan to topple him but ironically he was just too lame and docile to stop the impending (palace) coup. A man who could not stop mere bloodless coup is today boasting of ability to combat Boko haram insurgency. Someone who publicly said Abacha was not corrupt is now using the fight against corruption as a campaign gimmick! Buhari is too deceitful to rule Nigeria.

Your whole arguments are so unreasonable. How would you know if robbers are going to attack you at night despite you having electric fence all around? How would you know if a friend is going to betray you, are you God? So for Buhari not to seem clueless he should know all that was happening behind him? Use your brain!
