When The Bully Met The Headmaster At The White House, Ffk React To Buhari Visit by LadyNaija(f): 9:57am On May 01, 2018 |
"Nigerian herdsmen don't carry AK 47's. They only use sticks"- President Buhari to President Donald Trump, The White House, 30th April 2018. "We've had serious problems with Christians who have been murdered, killed in Nigeria. We're going to work on that problem and work on that problem very, very hard, because we can't allow that to happen."- President Donald Trump to President Muhammadu Buhari, The White House, 30th April 2018. Despite all the smiles, banter, pretensions, diplomatic niceties, doublespeak and pleasing words these two assertions from the bully and the big man respectively remain the most relevant in yesterdays meeting between President Buhari and President Trump at the White House. The fact that Buhari, like a little schoolboy standing before an intimidating headmaster, had to tell a pernicious lie about the weaponry of the Fulani herdsmen and attempt to absolve them of any blame for the horrendous genocide that is being perpetrated against Christians in our nation in order to escape being spanked speaks volumes. And the fact that Trump, not fooled by the lie and like a wise old headmaster, had to issue a stern warning to the schoolyard bully about the killing of Christians says even more. That, to me, was the meat of the meeting. All the rest that was said was nothing but diplomatic doublespeak, fake smiles and dross. Yet more needs to be said. Permit me to add the following. The truth is that the progressive forces, the official opposition and leaders of the resistance in Nigeria failed to put out the correct narrative about Buhari to the international community and international media over the last 3 years. Consequently Buhari escaped thorough international scrutiny. Apart from that Trump failed us. He chose economic gain and the juicy prospect of a massive Nigerian market for American goods, products and commodities over human rights and decency. Yet who can blame him for that given his "America first" mantra and the fact that the Nigerian people themselves appear to be very comfortable with their hazardous plight and murderous leader and do not appear ready to resist his corruption, tyranny, evil, ethnic cleansing, mass murder and genocide. The good news is that Trump may be the biblical Cyrus (and I really do believe that he is) but he is not God. We never looked to him. We look to God. And God will deliver us despite our inherent weaknesses, accursed fears, petty divisions and monumental cowardice. Finally hear this. If the opposition does not roll out its best guns, get its act togther, unite, stop playing childish games, stop the petty bickering and present one credible and acceptable candidate in 2019, Buhari will be back for another four years. The choice is ours. Permit me to end this contribution with a final word about the meeting between the bully and the headmaster at the White House. My younger brother, Babatunde Gbadamosi, wrote "Buhari went and got NOTHING. We must now buy two helicopters and agricultural produce from them. This is beyond incompetent". Tunde, as always, is absolutely right. https://www.naijanewspapers.com.ng/2018/05/when-bully-met-headmaster-at-white.html [img]https://3.bp..com/-bvxyZAATNn8/WudY_SNTerI/AAAAAAAAPLk/RCNg9tT-eUQu3IsZcaR-Pkm24GTdTX9RACLcBGAs/s640/buhari.jpg[/img] 38 Likes 6 Shares |

Why have Muslims been jittery since Trump warned Buhari against killing Christians in Nigeria? Where as their voice before now? All of a sudden, they are trying to paint a narrative that Muslims are also being killed. If truly Muslims are also being killed, then by whom? Is it not Muslims doing the killings after forgetting the original plan? I think their recent cry is an attempt to prevent Christians from getting help. I wonder why they think Trump's statement is an attack on Muslims. Where did he mention Muslims in his statement? They are just jittery cos they know they are guilty of the crimes. They will never protest against evil act of Terrorism perpetrated by their brothers. But when someone slightly asks a probing question about Islam, they will quickly throng the streets to protest and kill innocent Christians. 128 Likes 6 Shares

ExAngel007: Why will there be a war? Because those carrying out the killings don't want to be stopped? Why are Muslims angry at the statement? Are they trying to tell us they are the ones behind the killings? Shouldn't they be happy that someone is trying to stop the killings of Nigerians? Oh I forgot what the Quran said. QURAN (48:29): “Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah and those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves.” LISTEN TO THE WORDS OF JESUS BELOW, THEN TELL ME WHICH RELIGION IS PEACEFUL Luke 6:27-36 27 But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31 Do to others as you would have them do to you. 32 “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. 35 But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36 Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. 75 Likes 4 Shares |

alBHAGDADI: Guy rest abeg. What you just did, I can also do with any religious script you want me to: to quote of context. Even when you disagree, try to be responsible and reasonable with your conduct. perhaps, that's the reason few people take whatever it is that you have to say seriously. 9 Likes |
