And how have i supported Buhari's system of government so far on this thread?

Read your previous post, you were belittling the approach the last administration adopted and you went ahead to asked me the difference between this and the last one.

Oh you forgot!

If you fought corruption, Nigerians wouldn't have rejected you at the pool the way we did?

My Gawd!

This thing called English Language!

Well, sir, I perfectly understand.

Of course, you don't need to explain.

Who doesn't know that English is not our mother tongue! tongue wink

If only half of what he stole and was stolen under his watch could be recovered, there will be no trace of recession today. Keep capitalizing on the sorry state his docility and stealing plunged the economy into to type rúbbísh.
In Jonathan we have a man who stole N2.1b among others to sponsor documentary against people he claimed are corrupt.






was Gej the first Nigerian president to steal in office or did yaradua not survive with what Obj left for him. why can't PMB find his own tactics of survival. only educated leaders can easily find solution to their country's problems than criticizing their predecessor

Indeed GEJ is a great man - no questions about that.
This is how a leader should talk: you motivate your people,speak well of their good deeds and attributes; not castigating and embarrassing them globally by calling them criminals.
We have come to realize that fighting of corruption is not by arresting people randomly ( including political enemies) and throwing them in jails; it is by strengthening the right institutions and effecting policies that discourage corruption - hence,the 'goat and yam theory' which on the surface might sound dumb,but is infact,an amazing concept that every serious nation should adopt.
I honestly feel that Nigerians were not ready for GEJ's style of leadership which could have propelled us to one of the best nations.
You just spoke my mind.
The TSA comes to mind. I am still of the view that stealing is not corruption. You don't fight corruption by only arresting goats that eat yams, you efficiently do that by separating the yam from the goats. The real corruption is keeping goats and yams together.

I have no doubt he must have soaked his brain in some of that liquid that makes it function erratically before making out this statement.

Are we to quickly forget such statements which serve as reminders of how he fought corruption like:

1. Stealing is not corruption.

2. How much did Jim Nwobodo stole that he had to be jailed? (The bold portion is enough to pass him off as a stark illiterate he is, and is typical among a particular set of people around here).

3. If you put a goat close to yams, the goat must eat the yams.

4. People will come after me if I expose corrupt individuals.

5. They can insult me from head to toe, I don't give a damn. (When the oaf was questioned about his reluctance to declare his assets).

Etc.

That man was and will remain one of the worst mistakes ever to be made by a sovereign state.

corruption is in the blood of every Nigerian because our father's have practiced it and gone free...so there is no better approach to fight corruption than arresting the rebels...what style of leadership does gej have? Connivance i guess.hahaha,i laugh in parables...your children,grand children and even your own wealth was looted away and all you have to say is,"under a leadership of gross mis-mangement and looting,there is a possibility of being propelled(hahaha.do you know meaning of that word at all?) to the height of maybe U.S.

Why has religious and tribal sentiment washed sense out of your brain?

If Jonathan was a mistake to you then Buhari is a curse on Nigeria... Buhari's curse will visit you and his supporters soon. don't worry when you no longer have money for mb again due to the hardship your hero Buhari brings to the land... your eyes and senses will be clearer.

By the way, how many people have been convicted and jailed with all the corruption noise your hero Buhari is shouting about..."I will fight corruption" it's obvious he meant fighting corruption on the pages of newspaper using propaganda. Is it not shameful to you as his supporter that your anti corruption hero Buhari has not been able to convict or even jailed a fly or cockroach? No wonder you are all called Zombies...you don't reason at all.

It was that silence that lead to Dasuki-GATE palava you were busy granting members of your cabinet access to the back DOOR in that era of silence about national yam thieves. Now it is UNCLE BUBU's turn to fvvk up, he has failed to enlighten Nigerians over What he is doing with the cash collated from corrupt officials rather the Intereste of many of such corrupt people are well protected away from the public. And should he fail to re-shuffle his cabinet with credibale officials then his administration will be heading to the OTHER ROOM

You are only trying to mis-inform gullible Nigerians or children who weren't aware of the world when those statements were made.

1. stealing is not corruption, YES!!!! corruption is worse than stealing.
- I support that.

2. That statement by him was unfortunate(I don't support it), but when will you also remind us that the current president stated not too long ago that Abacha never stole money.

3. you should have stated what he said in its full context and not taking just part of the whole sentence to deceive people.
Anyway, for the ignorant ones - He was talking about fighting corruption, and the best way to fight it. There is no way you claim to be fighting corruption, if the money is close or easily accessible to people, it will be stolen. so the best way is to take it far from them I.e. taking the yam (far) away from the goat.

4. I haven't heard that before, but like I said don't just take a phrase out of the sentence to deceive people, the same way terrorist use phrases from the Quran to deceive ignorant recruits.

5. Every intelligent/knowledgeable person knows every top government official declare their asserts(it's not optional). He was against declaring it 'PUBLICLY' same way Buhari refused to declare his publicly(please nobody should tell me of one man that came to state SOME of Buhari assert on tv. if he wanted it public, he would have released his own copy of the form).

people expect presidents and vice to declare asserts publicly because of the antecedents of Ya'ardua.
