Over 200 Nigerians Were Denied To Meet Buhari In The USA by olillywales(m): 7:51pm On Jul 22, 2015
More than 200 Nigerians in the USA were ousted from the meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari in Washington DC.


The meeting was a part of four-day state visit to America by Nigerian leader. Buhari arrived on July 19, Sunday and has already met with his colleague Barack Obama.



Meanwhile, it was the only forum set aside for talks between diaspora Nigerians and their president, and one of a few activities provided entirely by the personnel of the Nigerian Embassy.



Some Nigerian organizations, comprising Nigerians in Diaspora Organisation (NIDO) and APC USA chapter received the information weeks before Buhari arrived.

Invitation cards in Nigerian colours and coat of arms were particularly printed for the event, some of which were sent to Nigerian organizations, and some to individuals.



The cards specified that guests should wear business or national attire and that guests reply to one Bukar Kolo.

However, the information appeared that the Embassy designed only 200 samples of the invitation cards. It did not clarify why so many Nigerian who came for the town hall meeting were left standing outside the gate of the Embassy.



More than 200 Nigerians who came from distant cities were denied admission into the Embassy. Many of them, including Professor Peter Opara who came from Boston, had invitation cards.

The Embassy staff did not explain the lock out to their fellow Nigerians.

Buhari has departed USA just recently, he will be back in Nigeria on Thursday, July 23.

The leader of Africa’s economic powerhouse, Nigeria, met with President Obama in the Oval Office.

Muhammadu Buhari was elected president in March in what was seen as Nigeria’s first peaceful transition of power.

USA visit was an opportunity for the two countries to patch up a relationship which had soured.

Thank God I did not WASTE my time attempting to attend the event. Got far more important things to do than to go listen to the Daura du--llard. Plus, imagine not even being allowed entry into the venue to see the dullard? That's clear double whammy grin grin grin grin grin grin

ATTENTION FELLOW NIGERIAN YOUTHS:

Be you Hausa, Ibo, Yoruba, Efik, Ibibio, Igala, Benin, Urhobo or wherever you may come from, I know you might not like Buhari Muhammed as your president either because he is Fulani, a Muslim or whatever personal reason that might have been brainwashed into your head, I will want you to realize one simple fact that YOU HAVE EVERYTHING TO GAIN IF BUHARI'S GOVERNMENT SUCCEEDS AND EVERYTHING TO LOSE IF HE DOESN'T.

Praying for this government to fail across all board is like praying life becomes reasonable for you and your household. Why am I saying these things you may ask right? The reason is if dollar becomes N700 to $1 all these past and present government officials and politicians won't feel the itch. It is you and your household that will buy items at skyrocket prices.

This government needs to succeed in making electricity 24/7, good roads, hospital, low cost housing, security, employment for the youths and above all FIGHT CORRUPT POLITICIANS WHO ARE YOU BIGGEST ENEMIES.

Forget the likes of barcanista, temitemi, CR77 and the rest. They are all jobless and agents of pdp who use this forum to defend their paymaster.

If truely this Guys have real job they won't have the time to type rubbish everyday..

Stop trying to prove your silly TaNoid credibility because I know you are a damn ignorant village and unintelligent TaNoid.

Majority Nigerians kicked that corrupt, crooked and incompetent loser out of office so ask majority Nigerians why they dislike that crook and incompetent, I'm sure they have tens of millions of reasons....
