Thank you Seun, I guess you most have fixed the photo issue.

May ask how you know this information for sure?
Do you know whether his new wife is the one that is christian? I just heard that his wife was christian but it has never been confirmed. It would make sense to have a chriatian cook and driver if your wife is christian would it not?

nagoma: The lady in the picture is Buhari's wife. She was a Muslim from a highly respected Muslim family in katsina. She lived all her life as good Muslim and died about 12 years ago after a protracted illness. Buhari's picture as a religious extremist was created by the southern Nigeria press in order to somehow discredit his impeccable honest and disciplined personality. Buhari tries to be honest in anything he does , he is a Muslim , never an extremist but tries to be a practicing Muslim just as Late Awolowo another disciplined person tried to be a good Christian. Honest people do not pretend. None of Buhari's daughters is married to a Christian and I think none of the daughters ever presented to him a Christian as suitor. But some of the ignorant people need to know the position of Islam on some of these issues- the position of Islam doesn't mean a position for extremists - just the basic expectation for any follower of the religion.it is also true that he allows his Christian staff the Sunday rest and reminds the Muslim staff that Friday has not being defined as a day of rest in Islam.

Thanks GenBuhari for the picture. Saved it to my archives

^ You are welcome

God bless u for ur special contribution.

if his wife is christian or muslim, what concerns anyone?

i highly doubt the wife is christian- fulanis are generally strict about caste distinctions and all that. And does Buhari seem like the type of person who would have a christian, non-converting wife- he is a strict muslim, unless somebody has evidence to the contrary.

in addition, christians in the north do tie headscarf, so how is not wearing a hijab an indication someone is not a muslim? If anything at all, it probably shows the person in question is indeed muslim.

GenBuhari: ^ You are welcome

GenBuhari do you have a picture of the WAI badge? That's one thing that's missing from my collection (I wish I had kept my badges all those years ago).

The potency of de-marketing strategy(being called extremist/bigot) being used by Buhari's enemies is so active that some people including the elite don't even think twice when the personality of Buhari is being x-rayed. And records had shown that the only outstanding and corrupt-free person whose integrity stands tall that has ruled Nigeria well is Buhari..........one would now know the reasons why the political elite won't want him to rule again

No she is not and was never one.

Nickydrake:


Nagoma, i hope you are around when jakumo breaks into this thread, as he is sure to, for i salivate at the prospect of an entertaining (though redundant) debate between you.

I am ready for the mad dog. I know his animal pictures and foul mouth . He has nothing new. A retarded hooligan like him.

sorry I do not have.

@nagoma,
But u haven't answered how u know for sure.

nagoma:

No she is not and was never one.

@tpia1
If I understand u correctly, u are saying thatin the North, muslim women do not wear hijabs or headscarfs ?
Sory it just does not make sense to me.

Having just done some research, it seems that Buhari's first wife died in 2006 and she was indeed given a muslim burial from news reports. She had been divorced from Buhari since approx 1990 and she gave him four daughters.

So question remains, is his other wife, who I believe is called Aisha, the one that some are calling a christian?

Wow, the interest on this thread is astonishing!

Buhari's Ex-Wife Dies.[/size]

Jan 16, 2006 (Daily Trust/All Africa Global Media via COMTEX) -- The former wife of one time Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), Hajiya Safinatu, died in the early hours of yesterday after a protracted illness at Chasel Hospital, Unguwar Sarki, Kaduna.

She was buried at Unguwar Rimi cemetery after funeral prayers according to Islamic rites.

Hajiya Safinatu at 53, is survived by four children from her former husband that include, Zulaihatu, Fatimah, Hadiza and Safinatu (aka Lami) and seven grandchildren.

If his present wife is or was a Christian, no problem, you would know but I am telling you that she is not and was never. Buhari would have no problem marrying a Christian if the right person at the right time happened to be one.

I seem to recall that he divorced her for accepting financial assistance from IBB whilst IBB had Buhari locked up between 1985 and 1989

the photo again

I just read a website that says Buhari's current wife is a practising moslem also.

I am still wondering how it came about that people were saying his wife is christian.

Were any of his wives christians before converting to Islam?

I am saying a northern woman not wearing hijab doesnt mean the person is christian.

Buhari is wearing a suit in your photo- why dont you assume he's christian because of that.

I assume you opened the thread to attack the wife btw.

You have to agree your questions are kind of dumb.

I am a christian myself, why would I attack his wife for being a christian?

I wanted to know whether his wife was christian because I had heard that hi wife was christian.

No. Never. I will not tell you a lie - with a name like that.

GenBuhari: ^^
If I was the real Buhari, trust me I would use all my resources to make sure that all the youths in the nation (not just NL) knows about my achievments and would not allow anybody forget it for a second.
Unfortunately General Buhari (rtd) has not got the best presentation skills or is too modest, he is more likely to praise others before you would ever hear him blow is own trumpet.

I truely wish I had even a tenth of his discipline, abilities and character. and I am proudly a christian from the south east living in diaspora.

Discipline my foot....

SO, wat's d hoot about his wife being a christian? It makes no meaning to me..

Hollysmile: SO, wat's d hoot about his wife being a christian? It makes no meaning to me..

And who cares about if it made meaning to you or not? as if you're [size=2pt]somebody[/size]

@Nagoma...How can i meet the General ? Pls link me up...he remains the only living nigerian ex president that i feel like having a heart to heart talk with...I so much Cheerish him

^ Buhari is very approachable. From what I have seen, whenever he is at a public event he usually answers most people's questions openly and honestly.
