Is Buhari's Life More Important Than Others???? by HH(m): 2:16pm On Jul 29, 2014
Enough has been said how Nigeria would have collapsed if the Bomb blast in any way hurt Buhari. It appears enough attention and protection is given to these "big Boys" in naija. What about the over 4000 innocent people killed by boko haram without government concern. aint they important

Sorry to tell you the truth, but YES, Buhari's life is more important than others. Buhari's assassination would have plunged Nigeria into a serious war - Civil War II. It is only me that said so, you president is also of that opinion.

In human societies, leaders are more important than ordinary citizens like you and me. An Assassination of President Jonathan also would lead to a serious conflict. The second World War (WWI) was triggered by the assassination of one man - Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and millions of people died as a result. Even the Nigerian Civil War was triggered by the Assassination of prominent northern leaders like Ahmadu Bello and Tafa Balewa.

Buhari is an illiterate piece of hypocritical shit who locked up Africa's most celebrated son Fela at the peak of his musical career for carrying $1000 while his cronies where being escorted into the country with million protected. Such a goat could never understand art and artistic liberties. He truncated Fela's' achievements as he came out of prison physically and mentally diminished.

Do you mean there are no future leaders in the other 4000 lives wasted? what happened in the case of Abiola? was he an ordinary citizen?

Nigeria civil war was triggered by the killing of Gen. J.T.U Aguiyi-Ironsi. The killing of Sarduana and Balewa triggered pockets of riots.

I am talking about present leaders, people dont know who their future leaders are, they pledge allegience only to current leaders. Abiola's case almost lead to war, until the matter was resolved politically by bribing Yoruba Leaders and handing power to Abiala's Kinsman. Do you know how many people lost their lives during the June12 crisis. And that June12 crisis shaped the destiny of Nigeria.

You must have you own version of Nigeria's History. How did the Killing of Gen Aguiyi-Ironsi trigger the Nigerian Civil war? Were there riots and civil strife in the east as a result of Gen Aguiyi-Ironsi's assassination? After the Assassination of prominent Northern leaders by soldiers suspected to be of Igbo extraction, the northerners started slaughtering igbos in the north, and Gowon did not Bring the situation under control. So the Igbos went back to their enclave and declared succession but decided to take the whole eastern region with them.

Buhari is not a leader? Are you saying you are not aware that Buhari commands more followership than all other Northern politicians? including the Vice President.
Please lets argue with civility instead of getting overly emotional. Nobody is saying Nigeria needs Buhari for Nigeria to move forwards, that is not even the subject of this thread. The question asked is if Buhari's life is more important than others, i was obliged to explain to you that in human societies, the value of certain human lives are placed far above those of others.
So quite taking it personal. If you hate buhari that much, it does not change the fact that his life is placed on a higher pedestal than me and you.

I dont hate him. am just being simply frank. what has been his proposal or contribution to resolve the challenges of BH that almost killed him?
Re: Is Buhari's Life More Important Than Others???? by theoctopus: 3:52pm On Jul 29, 2014
It is all speculation and bollocks. Buhari's death would not have plunged Nigeria into anything. Just some riots that will die down after some days. The President said what he said because that is who he is; a magnanimous person. See the way he has condoled with El Rufai even with all the insults from El Rufai. GEJ is just an embodiment of love and has a big heart that the El Rufais and the Buharis of this world cannot never dream of nor aspire to!

This is completely not true. When Yaradua won him in 2007, there was not a single riot in the north. If he commands more followers like you said, there would have been serious riots. Buhari's followers are vocal because the alternative is a Christian President. It is just religious following by people who want a muslim president. If Atiku or even Sambo become the president today, there will be no riot in the north

Although i have always had a soft spot for Buhari due to the vigour, purposefulness and integrity of his short rule (save his gross human rights violations), I do not see him perfoming well as president in present day Nigeria. I am against his hobnobbing with the same kinds of politicians he overthrew and jailed for corruption and he is not as energetic as he was 30 years ago. I also would have preferred him in the background acting as a stateman. Nigeria seriously is in need of apolitical statesmen.

I doubt he or any single person can resolve the challenge of Boko Haram. Boko Haram has grown beyond the local millitia created by politicians for election rigging purposes. It has grown into a strong international terrorist group with foreign funds and Backing. Dealing with it now would require international help from the world powers and cooperation from other west african countries.

If president Jonathan with his enormous power cannot resolve Boko Haram, how do you expect a Buhari to resolve it with nothing at his disposal?

Buhari has never had any vigour or purposefulness all his life. He has been selling a false history of himself and many of you kids have been deceived by him. The only thing I remember about him is a cowardly despost who hid behind Idiagbon's pants for 2 years and then a corrupt PTF chairman who helped Abacha to steal the nation blind and went on to defend Abacha. Then I remember the bigot and extremist who championed Sharia along with Yerima and of course, the serial looser who is too desperate to become Nigerias president again

Stop calling people kids. I am sure i am way older than you. Nobody is selling me any false history, i lived the history. How can you say a commander in chief hid behind his number 2 man in a military regime? Buhari was the commander in chief of the Nigerian armed forces, so he gives the final order. Ask anybody who had worked with Buhari throughout his military career, including during the civil war,they would tell you he was anything but a coward. All the unfounded allegations against Buhari about being corrupt was only from the figment of PDP's imagination. There had been probes upon probes on his running of PTF. OBJ was obsessed with finding something against Buhari and until he left nothing was ever found. No body had ever been able to connect Abacha loot to Buhari, i wonder how you came about Buhari helping Abacha to loot.
If we are in another country a lot of you PDP guys would be in jail for character assassination and libel with all your spurious allegations you dream up everyday against political opponents.

No. Buharis life is not more important than others. But is GEJ's second term re election ambition more important than the hundreds of lives being wasted in Nigeria on daily basis because of inaction and being clueless?

For your information, the PTF probe showed Buhari was corrupt. That was one reason he shunned the oputa panel and he went on to say Abacha was not corrupt to hide his own corruption. He is a crook

So, if your father and mother are kidnapped today, the policeman at the counter in the police station may not even be interested in taking your statement because you, your father and your mother put together are nobody.

Were you not in this country when this government and its agents alleged that Buhari's loss of the 2011 elections led to wide spread carnage and the murder of 100s of innocent Nigerians and youth corpers serving their country in the North of Nigeria?

If an ordinary election loss could spark off such madness, what do you think Buhari's death in a bomb blast would cause?

Face it man...it is a good thing the man wasn't physically affected by that blast. Even Asari Dokubo with all his media sabre rattling broke out in a cold sweat at what could have been if Buhari had died in that blast.

Buhari is not more important than the thousands who have died from bomb blasts. But he would have immediately become the face of victims nationwide and triggered severe crisis across the country. Don't forget he has rabid followership even outside the North.
