Nigeria Would Have Been A Better Place If My Husband Did Not Die: Turai Musa Yar by ty4real123: 11:30am On Mar 01, 2020 |
Ex-First Lady Turai and late ex-President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua Madam Turai Musa Yar’Adua, wife of the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, has lamented that Nigeria is in a precarious state today because her husband’s regime was cut short by his sickness and eventual death. She noted that Nigeria would have been much better if the late President had finished his tenure but for the lingering sickness that eventually terminated his vision-driven life. “The situation in Nigeria would have been better had my husband, the late President, survived his ailment because he was a focused, committed and determined leader. “Although my husband was sick for a long time, he did his very best for Nigeria. Also as governor of Katsina State, he did his best for the state; he is an honest man who believed in service,” she said. Underscoring the humility of Musa Yar’Adua, she said he once told her that his relatives would quarrel with her after his death as they would think that he had left so much money. The former First Lady, who spoke at a recent memorial lecture in honour of the late President in Katsina, also said: “The late Yar’Adua was not a materialist leader who believed in accumulating wealth. In fact, he shunned material things as his slogan was service to humanity. “There was a time he said to me: ‘Turai, I pity you because when I die you will have quarrels with my relatives because they will think I have so much money in my possession’.” Extolling his virtues as a leader, Madam Turai said the late President would not give out contract without having the money to pay for it. “There was a time I approached him that people are complaining that the government was slow. But he said to me, ‘people can say whatever they like but I will not give out contract if I have no money to pay’. “The late Umaru was a kind of leader that would go out and monitor projects. I could recall when I used to join him to supervise hospital and road projects,” she said. https://newsexpressngr.com/news/92938-Nigeria-would-have-been-a-better-place-if-my-husband-did-not-die-Ex-First-Lady-Turai-Musa-YarAdua 234 Likes 25 Shares

Very true. He was the first and only president to review downward the price of petrol in Nigeria. He had other good plans but unfortunately death did not allow him to actualise them. Continue to RIP. 855 Likes 65 Shares |

Niger Delta was safe. The militants received amnesty. North, South, East and West were happy. No BOKO, No IPOB, No Bandits, No killer herdsmen. Now see where we are. May our helper not die untimely 1027 Likes 82 Shares |

Your husband's death was beyond our control and inevitable. The pain is understandable. But voting Buhari in 2015 was an avoidable disaster but for some group of "intellectuals" whose sophistication could not see beyond their nose. 401 Likes 25 Shares |

It was during his regime that we knew what it felt like for lecturers not to go on strike. His administration introduced different batches and streams for NYSC that enabled a lot of PCMs go for service earlier than expected. Before then, graduates had wait for about a year or two before getting deployed. Too bad death took him away from us before we could realize his full potentials. Continue to RIP OMY Boko Haram started during his regime though. 293 Likes 21 Shares |

This man had plans for Vision2020, he was cut short by ill health. Look where we are today - battling whether to send repentant Boko Haram terrorists to overseas for foreign education or not. Rest in peace and love of God Yaradua. Maybe it's a spell or something, good things doesn't last in Nigeria. 37 Likes 2 Shares |

Look at all the lazy youths above me.....even with the advent of google they cannot verify just a simple few things. So Yaradua was the first and only president to reduce petrol price? He introduced Batches into our NYSC system? No ASUU strikes, students finished in record time? No herdsmen killings under him? No militancy? Boko was not around in his tenure? Keep on lazy youths, keep on . https://www.bigthink.com/those-who-do-not-learn-history-doomed-to-repeat-it-really.amp.html 26 Likes 2 Shares |
