A complex situation that may be too hot to handle may soon erupt between two former heads of states, General Buhari and General Babangida over political differences. Babagida, we gathered, has threatened to bring up an issue that seems likely to create conflicts if not quenched now.

“On Gen. Buhari, it is not in IBB’s tradition to take up issues with his colleague former President. But for the purpose of record, we are conversant with Gen. Buhari’s so-called holier-than-thou attitude.

“He is a one-time Minister of Petroleum and we have good records of his tenure as minister. Secondly, he also presided over the Petroleum Trust Fund ( PTF) which records we also have. We challenge him to come out with clean hands in those two portfolios he headed. Or, we will help him to expose his “records of performance during those periods. Those who live in glass houses do not throw stones. Gen. Buhari should be properly guided.”

The above statement was issued by the former ministry head of states, General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida through his media adviser, Prince Kassim Afegbua. The gap toothed retired military officer has threatened to expose the shady deals his colleague, General Buhari did while in office as Petroleum Minister.

If you remember, Buhari once held that mouthwatering position during the Murtala/Obasanjo regime in 1976. No fraud was recorded then aside the missing $2.8B conspicuously missing from the NNPC account in Midlands Bank, U.K.

Never knew this country was this rich until this expose came up. So, the honey and milk of this country, which the masses are deprived of, have been audaciously milked with impunity. Who then is the Messiah? God, let thy Kingdom come.

@Bolded 3: tell me why i should take this your source serious... Guy, no be by force to be a blogger na...

But before I address the specifics I will like to remind that some two years ago at the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs, Victoria Island, Lagos during the Public Presentation of “Who Really Is General Muhammadu Buhari?” (which also includes the said Sixteen ‘Sins’) on 03 March, 2009 I PUBLICLY CHALLENGED all the Buhari-Phobics to a PUBLIC DEBATE on the socalled Buhari ‘Sins.’ I’ve repeated this challenge also on at least three other similar occasions (Kaduna, Port Harcourt, Ibadan).

Suffice it to say that NOBODY, especially the otherwise swankingly loud Buhari phobes, had the boldness or courage to pick up the gauntlet. They simply chickened out. Despicable.

Incidentally, the challenge is still very much OPEN. Facts. Not Fiction.

Either they come out to confront me or they should forever keep their mouths (or pens) in “Permanent Position of SHUT UP” (apology Zebrudayah).

Now, to the specifics:

“The Saga of 53 Bulging Suit Cases”

ABSOLUTE RUBBISH. “Bulging,” a cowardly reference to the Nigeria Naira, which colour the Buhari government had changed to frustrate fraudsters. And with a deadline to officially change the OLD currency to the NEW.

Other STUPID insinuations: First, the said “Bulging 53 Suit Cases” belonged to the Emir of Gwandu, Alhaji Mustapha Jokolo, the father of Buhari’s ADC, Major Al-Mustapha Jokolo.

Second, ADC Major Jokolo, awed or intimidated the Custom Officers from inspecting the said 53 suitcases of his father.

Third, the Buhari’s government condoned and suppressed the matter with censurable veniality.

THE TRUTH:

One, it is TOTALLY false that the respected Emir came into the country with 53 suit cases “bulging” (or not bulging).

Two, 40 of the said 53 suit cases infact belonged to the Nigerian Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, His Excellency Ambassador Dahiru Waziri (and his family). He was returning home to take up another national assignment, State Chief of Protocol (SCOP) to General Buhari.

Three, Nobody ever stopped the airport custom officers from doing their lawful duty.

Four, there was NOT a single Naira in the suit cases.

Five, The Minister of Finance, Dr. Onaolapo O. Soleye, was directed by General Buhari to investigate the ‘juicy’ simmering scandal. Verdict? The Emir was CLEARED. Not a shred of truth in the scandal.

Acknowledgement: I am greatly indebted in gratitude to a respected former Head of State (NOT Buhari) who most graciously supplied me with the information on Ambassador Dahiru Waziri.

All the above are in my “The Sixteen ‘Sins’ of General Muhammadu Buhari.”

Very CONFIDENT General Buhari had on at least two occasions directed probing journalists to go and ask Atiku Abubakar about the suit cases. He was at the material time the Custom Officer on duty at the airport. They are too lazy to go to Atiku. I know him. He will tell them the truth.

President Jonathan and the “53 Suit Cases” Saga:

“I’LL EXPOSE RIBADU, BUHARI – Jonathan” (Front Page Sensation Sunday SUN March 20, 2011).

“PDP exposes Buhari on Corruption * Gets Ribadu’s record ready” (Sunday Tribune 20 March, 2011. Front Page Splash). The paper even carried the pic of a broadly smiling President Jonathan – as if an “Eureka!” scoop.

REACTION:

Monstrous GARBAGE. This NONSENSE. This RUBBISH, was attributed to President Jonathan by one of his topmost Public-Money-Paid handlers, Mike Omeri, Director of Research and Strategy of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

One, Big, Fat Title: “Director of Research and Strategy of the Presidential Campaign Council.” Vacuous. Sterile of “Research.” Empty of “Strategy.” Waste of public funds.

Two, “……..in 1984 General Buhari exhibited double standard in public administration by allowing 52 (sic) suit cases suspected to be filled with hard currency through his ADC….”

Three, the vaunted “Director of Research….” does not even know the number of suit cases at issue, “52” instead of “53”. What a great “Director of Research.”

Four, the great “Director of Research…” was too lazy intellectually and too indolent physically to get hold of copies of the two books on General Buhari op. cit. to be better informed or enlightened. They’ve been at a number of book shops for the past two years.

Or is the great “Director of Research” in fact a misologist? This would be inherently contradictory.

Fallout of “Director of Research” Gaffe and Goof

· “Jonathan suspends campaign director Over Buhari, Ribadu” (Daily SUN March 24, 2011. Front Page Splash).

· “53 suit cases: Jokolo threatens to sue AGF, PDP…..Says he’s ashamed of PDP Ag national chairman” (Daily SUN March 25, 2011 page 11).
OBDURATE MISOLOGY AND PRO-JONATHAN

It seems that some Pro-Jonathan are so photophobic when it comes to enlightenment that no amount of LIGHT beamed on FALSEHOOD can make any dint on their obsessional fancied misology. They are so comfortable with DARKNESS like the men in Plato’s Allegory of the Cave.

In the past few weeks a number of full-page silly adverts against Buhari and Bakare have appeared in the newspapers. But the sponsors decidedly defeated their object because of laziness to update their records of INACCURACIES and IGNORANCE and so they continue to attempt disinforming the public, who are already in possession of the FACTS.

For instance, after all that has been written above (and earlier); after President Jonathan justified ‘sack’ of his Director of Research and Strategy, Mike Omeri, over the BOGUS “53 suit cases” saga (Daily SUN 24 March, 2011. Front Page Splash) a Pro-Jonathan sycophantic group, with the soi-disant tag, “Gbagi Foundation,” STILL had this to say about the said “53 suit cases” in a full page NONSENSICAL advert (Daily SUN 29 March, 2011 page 42): “…during the change of the Nigerian currency, 53 suitcases belonging to the Emir of Gwandu, father of General Buhari’s ADC, Major Jokolo, came into the country and disappeared till today…”

And this is coming after one whole week Jonathan was outraged about the nonsensical disinformation.

Before this silly advert there was one which tried to embarrass Bakare by re-visiting what he had said of Buhari before. No point at all. Human beings and human situations are necessarily DYNAMIC; sometimes even in a state of FLUX. That’s why we have PARADIGM SHIFTS.

In short, there is no big deal that Bakare is now a Running Mate to Buhari.

President Abraham Lincoln (1861-1865) once said that he was prepared to change his mind in the face of New Realities, after all he is a mortal.

Only The Almighty is unmoveably CONSTANT.

Incidentally, the choice of Bakare is said to be another ‘sin’ of Buhari.

In any case Jonathan has changed his mind even in major national issues over dozen times.

“The N2.8 Billion ‘Missing’ Oil Money Poppycock”

Unmitigated NONSENSE. ABSOLUTELY BOGUS. No such money even one dollar of oil money was ever lost.

The Honourable Mr. Justice Ayo Irekefe Judicial Commission of Inquiry on N2.8 Billion Oil Money was unequivocally categorical that NO such money or any oil money ever got missing.

As Minister of Petroleum under Buhari I naturally asked for a copy of the White Paper on the Justice Irekefe’s Judicial Commission. I read it over several times; NOT even a smoking gun.

Furthermore, Buhari ABSOLUTELY has NO hand in the matter.

“It was interesting that Buhari’s name as Minister of Petroleum Resources and Chairman of NNPC was not mentioned” (Obasanjo, In: “Not My Will” (1990) page 222)......
