"Truth is that Buhari cannot pretend to be unaware of the fanaticism, belligerence and overzealousness that characterize the activities and modus operandi of his many faithful followers. In the eyes of Buhari’s teeming followers, we must UNCRITICALLY accept everything Buhari says as messianic epistle that should never be interrogated nor questioned. “His feet must not be put to fire. To ask him hard questions is to commit mortal sin”. Any questioning of Buhari’s candidacy, no matter how legitimate, attracts far-flung missiles, unlimited curses and volcanic eruption of threats and insults. It doesn’t get more intolerant than this. The worst part is intellectuals and the seemingly enlightened electorate have joined the bandwagon, unashamedly exhibiting such regretful, undemocratic behaviour.

What Buhari’s silence – in the face of this growing intolerance to opposing views – shows is that he learned no useful lessons from the 2011 post-election violence that claimed no less than 800 lives, including young citizens cut down in their prime while serving their fatherland under the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme. In fact, it’s either he learnt no lessons from that tragic incident or that he doesn’t regret that it happened. It was his discomforting silence that emboldened his opponents to attribute the 2011 post-election violence to him, and twist his pre-election statements out of context. Consequently, a smear campaign against him flourished and falsehood embellished as truth was engraved in the minds of many till this day. It took several years of protracted litigation and counter-claims before an apology could be extracted from Reuben Abati, the author of the April 22, 2011 Guardian newspaper article entitled “For the attention of General Buhari,” which claimed that Buhari‘s unguarded statement stirred the 2011 post-election violence."
