May THUNDER strike all the people that are playing prank with Nigeria, those who know the truth but keep dciving people all because of personal interest

As GEJ ever met with Buhari to help in the BH saga? Hell no but him and his walking stick(okupe) can try to rubish the man on media and still calling him to their aid?

What level of command did GEJ has when he was the VP and went to meet the ND and Sambo did not have now?

PDP always blame someone for their failure i have know that for a long time,

If you never see anything bad in your friends on boss then you are not sincere, must you try to support every bad things? Are you the only one that know Nigeria stories?

EVERYONE be OLD,YOUNG,FEMALE or MALE that keep decieving Nigerian for their personal interest,that are element of doom because of money may all the gods in Nigeria use their bloods for Nigeria salvation

NB: dont be scare if you are not among

take dat: Jonathan as well did not command the following of the likes of Alams, Ibori and co in the ND before he was able to broker the amnesty deal. All he did was to reach out to those with enormous clout. Has GEJ explored that option with Sambo, giving him all the necessary backing to comb all the nooks and crannies of the affected states, seeking for would be collaborators in the fight against BH. Won't GEJ stretch out a hand of friendship to some northerns leaders that'll help him secure votes whenever he declares his 2015 ambition? Why can't he reach out to them now?

take dat: Cheap blackmail and tissues of lies from an habitual liar who speaks on behalf of a government that is pathologically incapable of accepting responsibility. If there are concrete evidence that he is behind the BH scourge, why not prosecute him instead of this campaign of calumny, looking for a fall guy? Is Government trying to abdicate her responsibility of securing lives and properties to the Same Buhari who is accused of being behind the menace? Okupe should tell Nigerians if it was Buhari who granted the likes of Ndume bail, and if he is the reason why Modu Sherrif still remains a free man? Why not send his deputy(Sambo) to do the same just as Yaradua did with him in brokering peace with the ND militants?

Gabriel_sylar: I thot buhari is a christain....when did he convert??

Whether u like it or not Buhari is an ordinary citizen and he has every right to reject mediatin btw FG and BH.Don't u think Buhari will be doing a very great harm to his reputation if he mediated and BH succumbed?What would Nigerians say?Buhari has talked to his boys to stop killing xtians....then u would say he is BH sponsor when he is not.
GEJ should sit up and find a lasting solution to the Bono Haram menace ,it is his responsibility.

My dear m0r0n
The reason why you'll ne'er be able to find that evidence is that it was actually Atiku Abubakar that made that statement, not Buhari.
Due to rank stupidity and idiocy, many simpletons like yourself have come to believe that statement was made by Buhari, a fact that Okupe (who knows the statement was made by a card carrying PDP member) is eager to exploit.

Sincere 9gerian:
Thanks for your post. Its so painful that some persons have been so blinded by partisan and ethnic sentiments that they cant see beyond their nose.

It is the constitutional responsibility of EVERY Nigerian citizen to ASSIST law enforcement agencies in their discharge of their duties of maintaining law and order. This responsibility is enshrined in the 1999 Nigerian Constitution as amended. It is so because security is the responsibility of ALL. That is how it is even in other countries.

If there's any help someone like Buhari could render to bring the mayhem in the north to a quick end, it is constitutional for him to so do. Otherwise, he is IRRESPONSIBLE, wicked and heartless. This also implies, he only shed crocodile tears the last time.

Some say the president has failed because he's calling on the likes of Buhari to discharge their constitutional responsibility. Well, the president has not failed. The president as Commander in Chief of the armed forces can only deploy FORCE to troubled spots. That, the president has done. The JTF is EVER active in those troubled spots, under the supervision of the president. The attacks have not stopped but that is not UNIQUE to Nigeria. The attacks, by the SAME Islamic terrorists, in Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen,etc have also NOT stopped.

Because of realisation that in this sort of insurgency, force alone may not end it, a multifaceted approach has always been on the table. Therefore, the call on the likes of Buhari, who has cult-like following in the north, to assist, in any way he can, in bringing the violence to an early end is not out of place.

Unfortunately, I dont see Buhari doing ANYTHING to help end the violence. Since after he lost in 2011, serious bad blood has been generated Between Buhari and the presidency. Buhari has never attended the National Council of State meeting since after 2011 elections. This is what happens when someone is DESPERATE and sees the presidency as his birthright.

Some are comparing Buhari and the current vice president, Sambo. That is mischievous because Sambo does not have even 1% of the sort of following Buhari commands in the north.

In my opinion, the day the leaders of the north, Buhari inclusive, unite against Boko haram, that will mark the end of Boko haram. For now, they'r playing cat and mouse with boko haram. Force and JTF appear to be the only available option for now.

E ya i understand where d anger n bitterness is coming from but u must still accept my sympathy that u all are sorry ass losers cos gej is beta than sorry ass blood sucking demons

Do u now agree that the said statement u attributed to Buhari seems to be false or not? U seem to be silent about that

Sincere 9gerian:
GEJ did not go alone. He, along with other Niger delta leaders, brokered negotiations between the Yar Adua govt and the Niger delta militants.

However, lets not forget that boko haram problem started under Yar Adua. President Yar Adua, even as a northerner, was negotiating with Niger delta militants while at the same time using FORCE to crush boko haram.

The message in it is that Boko haram is not the same as Niger delta militants. Boko haram are terrorists motivated by religion. While money may lure Niger delta militants away from the creeks, money may not work when it comes to religion. Boko haram can deploy suicide bombing with ease because of religuous indoctrination.

Therefore, I always doubted the possibility of boko haram accept amnesty or dialogue. Its like a devout christian being granted amnesty after denouncing Christ. How possible is that? Or like Osama Bin Laden dialoguing with the US? These are all mere wishful thinking that cannot happen.

The effect of coming on board of the likes of Buhari in the fight against boko haram is that it will alienate boko haram the more and more, making their elimination swifter.

The truth is that at the level boko haram has attained now, even if Buhari becomes president of Nigeria, the violence will not end because as soon as even Buhari becomes president, he automatically becomes the number one enemy of boko haram. The only thing that will change is that more northerner leaders will enlist in the fight against boko haram and more intelligence will be available to the security agencies because northerners who were previously reluctant to volunteer information will now be more eager to so do. A combination of all these will make the security agencies more effective in routing boko haram.

macnicks: Okpukpe is found of playing dirt games. Does buhari know the boko haram men? He said buhari should persuade them as if he know the bokos. Buhari is the man that can transform this country among the notable politicians. I am from the south and also a christian but we have to tell ourselves the truth. I had trust in Jonathan but he has not changed yet. Why must he recycled aninie instead of fixing the power. He is just interested in winning election rather than restoring the country to glory. Jonathan has the capacity to restore this country but the bad eggs around him is the problem Nigerians has.

Demdem:

Symphony007: asking ordinary citizens? So a former nigeria head of state who is also a prominent muslium, widely respected by his people and who they'll listen to is now "an ordinary citizen"? I don't know how narrow minded you're but this how government works, all hands on deck to solve national problems, that is how it is done worldwide and buharu's response to this will determine how matured he really is.

Suntzung: NA ONLY SMALL THING YOU SEE, THE FG PLANS TO USE THE BOKO CRISES TO;

1. CRIPPLE NORTHERN NIGERIA ECONOMICALLY AND OTHERWISE
2. HARASS AND BLACKMAIL OPPOSITION FIGURE
3. SACK AND DISMISS TOP NORTHERN ECHO LITE IN THE GOVERNMENT ESPECIALLY THE MILITARY
4. CHEAP POLITICAL BLACKMAIL TO CONTINUE THEIR RULE
5. IMPLEMENT US GLOBAL AGENDA AGAINST MUSLIMS

Dospix: Jonathan to Buhari: Stop Boko Haram


ABUJA— President Goodluck Jonathan, Tuesday, sent a strong message to former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari, pleading with him to spearhead the campaign to persuade members of the Boko Haram sect to accept dialogue, as a means of ending the orgy of violence in the North.

Similarly, Jonathan asked Buhari to emulate the role he ( Jonathan) played by going to meet militants in their vast hideouts in the Niger Delta to plead with them to lay down their arms and accept the general amnesty granted by the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua on June 25, 2009.
Jonathan and Buhari

Jonathan and Buhari

Jonathan said he expected Buhari to lead the way in persuading the Boko Haram insurgents in the North to stop bombings and enter into dialogue with the Federal Government with a view to ending the violence in the region, which is threatening to disrupt the economy of the region and Nigeria.

The President, who sent the message to Buhari through his Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, accused the former head of state of making false allegations against him during his interview in London last week.

What Buhari told BBC in London

During the interview with the BBC, Buhari had said that the Federal Government should be held responsible for the worsening state of insecurity in Nigeria, accusing the leadership of not taking steps to halt the slide, which has claimed many lives and property in the region.

Buhari said: “The problem of terrorism is not confined to the North alone. Insecurity generally should be blamed on the Federal Government.

“The world is very much concerned about two things — the issue of security and economic wellbeing of a nation. Security is number one. A nation can only be economically viable if there is security. But how did all these crises start? How did the crises begin and assume this dimension?

“Until now, everyday, they abduct people and receive ransoms. How was the problem reduced? How did it start? What method was employed to convince them to mellow down?

“Similarly, what we should look at is, how did the Boko Haram start? We know all these. Security is the responsibility of the government.

“It is the responsibility of the Federal Government to know how this thing started and how to go about it.”

Jonathan takes on Buhari

But Okupe asked Nigerians to demand from Buhari what he had done as a leader in the North and a former head of state to halt the attacks by the sect.

He said: “Nigerians should ask him (Buhari) that as a former Head of state and as someone who wants to be president again, what he has done to end this insurgence in the country.

“Or is it when he becomes President, he will stop the insurgence? No, it does not work that way. He should emulate President Jonathan who went to the creeks of the Niger Delta canvassing peace and dialogue with the militants of the Niger Delta.

“Everybody knows that it was General Buhari, who vowed to make Nigeria ungovernable for President Jonathan if he loses the last presidential election. It was in Minna, that he said that once votes are countered and he loses that people should go for blood. He said in Hausa language. General Buhari is the person who sowed the wind that the nation is now reaping in whirlwind.

“He is not in any position to apportion blames on the issue of violence in the North or in Nigeria in general. He is a protagonist of violence. The only position he sees for not being the President is to call for violence. This government has tried as much as possible to contain some of Buhari’s unguarded statements. I don’t think anybody in Nigeria will take Buhari very serious when he makes such comments.

“If there is anybody to blame, General Buhari comes number one on that list. Have you ever seen General Buhari visit BornoState or condemn the acts of the Boko Haram or condole whether Christians or Muslims that have been killed?

“A man who can traverse the whole length and breadth of Nigeria, yet he cannot use that clout that he has and get leaders together to put an end to the insurgence in the country. And yet he finds it comfortable to blame other people. What has he done as a former Head of State to help Nigeria and Nigerians stop the militancy in the North or in other parts of the country?”

Lets wait and see if Buhari will eventually curtail the boko haram menace.

Why are u people indicting Buhari like this? He has disassociated himself from Boko Haram (but we all

know he is the kingpin). Make una stop to dey taunt this man na, abeg. *Geers at Buhari!* .

I mostly blame our weak presidency for this insecurity $h!7. He knows those behind it but is too scared to

"sneeze" .

Olaolufred: A FATHER WHO COULD NOT PROTECT HIS CHILDREN FROM ASSAULT ACCUSES ANOTHER FATHER FOR HIS INCAPACITATION.

THE SUMMARY OF THE RESPONSE FROM THE PRESIDENCY IS, "WE ARE CLUELESS AS TO HANDLE THIS ISSUE, PLEASE HELP US".
HOWEVER, YARADUA WAS NOT CLUELESS, HENCE HE SENT HIS OWN VICE PRESIDENT TO GO THE CREEKS AND TALK TO THE MILITANTS TO EMBRACE PEACE. GOODLUCK SHOULD FOLLOW SUIT AND MANDATE HIS VICE TO BROKER THE PEACE REQUIRED IN THE NORTH.

IT WILL BE VERY HARD FOR THE PRESIDENCY TO THINK THAT THE PEOPLE HE IS PAINTING BAD WILL BE THE SAME PEOPLE THAT YOU WILL SEND TO BROKER PEACE(THOUGH WE KNOW YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS).JONATHAN FOLLOWERS HAD INSINUATED WITHOUT EVIDENCE THAT BUHARI IS GUILTY OF BOKO HARAM. HENCE, AN ACCUSE CAN NOT INVESTIGATE HIS OWN MATTER.
SO LET JONATHAN COME OUT OF HIS CLUELESSNESS AND SEND HIS VICE TO DO THE JOB.
LEADERSHIP IS NOT JUST IN EATING 1 BILLION NAIRA WORTH FOOD.

My friend, stop the gutter talk. This forum is injected with intellectual minds who are well read and discuss Politics on a sound mind.

Where is your weblink to prove what the foolish man has alleged about Buhari? Every intellectual statement here is backed by facts.

The onus is on you to prove that Buhari categorically made that statement you are shamelessly stating here. For once, surprise the enlightened forum that you are capable of intellectual reasoning.
