All the 19 states thenhad administrators that were strictly appointed by Buhari, they were like ministers whose decisions must be in line with Buhari's policies, they were simply there to do his bidding.
Taking over christian schools from churches, refusal to grant permit for church building while speeding up the process for mosques, amounts to Islamization.
For you to liken Military Governors to Ministers shows your shallowness in the understanding of public administration. The Ministers are Officers of the FG, while the Military Governors are CEOs of the respective states. They don't brief the HoS nor take orders from them on certain policies. In fact, Marwa as Military Governor was loved by Lagosians despite Abacha being hated by the same Lagosians. Do you think Military Colonels and Lt Colonels are robots? Sometimes you need to read to understand before making statements. How can HoS tell Governors not to grant request for permit? Are all the Governors muslims? Are they robots? Guy abeg pack well. You de fall hand.

The military governors were appointees of the head of state. They were completely answerable to their boss.

That was in 2010
Read your history people and what has been written about Buhari over the years.



Mallam El-Rufai wishes to remind General Buhari that he has remained
perpetually unelectable because his record as military head of state, and
afterwards, is a warning that many Nigerians have wisely heeded. His
insensitivity to Nigerias diversity and his parochial focus are already
well-known. In 1984, Buhari allowed 53 suitcases belonging to his ADCs
father to enter Nigeria unchecked at a time the country was exchanging old
currency for new. Against all canons of legal decency, he used retroactive
laws to execute three young men for drug-peddling after they were convicted
by a military tribunal and not regular courts of law. Buhari was so high
handed that he gave himself and his officials immunity even from truthful
reporting. That obnoxious Decree 4, against which truth was no defence, was
used to jail journalists and attempt to cow the media as a whole. That
tyrannical legislation shows the essence of his intolerance. These are
facts of recent history.

The story of counter-trade and import licensing, the cornerstone of
Buharis stone-age economic strategy and those whose interests it served,
is a tale for another day.

Mallam El-Rufai respects both Generals Buhari and Babangida as elder
statesmen. He believes their age, experience and guidance may contribute to
the success of any future government. El-Rufai however believes that it is
time for a new generation of leaders with new thinking and wholesome
democratic attitude to move our nation forward. The vicious response by the
Buhari camp to a simple statement that their almost-70 principal should
retire is proof enough that a Buhari, the new Democrat, tolerant of views
different from his own, is yet to evolve. And that is sad, for his
fledgling party and its leadership. Buhari and his cohorts may wish to
reflect that it will take more than attacks on personalities to become
electable. Having seen his version of discipline, Nigerians are not likely
to cherish an encore. But they will welcome an engagement with the issues
and problems of everyday life that have hobbled the peoples of this land.

The press release above was vintage Nasir El-Rufai to General Buhari in 2010

He has stated it time without number that he will work towards rolling out sharia nationwide. It's a pity a lot of people do not know this man Buhari. He's an honest man no doubt but is not fit to be President of Nigeria due to ethnic and religious bigotry.

Sharia is meant for Muslims and not Christians and part of the Muslim religion. How is that your concern? Zamfara state started the sharia law during obasanjo's administration but never have you heard there's being ethnic or religious uproar in that state.
Who is more ethnic and religious bigoted like Jonathan,Sambo and PDP who keep dividing Nigerians along ethnic and religious lines?

Hisbah police is going around in Kano in the name of Sharia destroying people's sources of livelihoods. They seize truckloads of Nigerian brewery, Guinness etc products belonging to Igbo traders in Kano and destroy them.

Nigerian brewery and guiness does not belong to Igbos.Stop making it look as if Igbos are the main targets of sharia law.
What are the type of goods that were destroyed by hisbah police?

I'm talking about the distributors. The destruction is at a loss to the distributors and sundry traders, they go to shops too to destroy alcoholic beverages. I only used the name of the companies to point to their products, Alcohol.

In some parts of the North where Sharia is practised, there is segregation. Men are not allowed to board the same commercial vehicles with women.

Nwa, reconsider your support for Buhari biko.

Mallam Buhari is one of the founding factors of Boko. He is an Islamic fanatic who even as Head of State in a secular Nigeria never hesitated to show his disdain and intolerance towards other religions. FYI, he even considers that his running mate an unclean being who is merely a means to an end.
