Ironic you accuse Buhari of lacking intelligence when it is crystal, for anyone who knows and understand the reality of Nigeria, that you are the one who lacks intelligence and the ability to think critically. Could all those men, given the political climate in Nigeria in 2015, have won the Presidential election? Even an averagely bright child will tell you the answer is a big NO !!!

Some of you just come here to talk nonsense and insult others because you like the sound of your own voice. Which voting block would have made Utomi or Fayemi President in 2015? The one in your Village? People like you show the limited thinking capacity of an ill-exposed and highly limited mind. In this day and age you still think leadership is about Utomi or Fayemi-style intellect alone? I laugh at your ignorance. Go and inspect the CV of many who failed woefully under GEJ, like Aganga, Okonjo-Iweala et al, to note leadership is about much more than 'book knowledge'.

Even GEJ had a PHD yet where did his unprincipled and weak nature, that sits alongside his PHD, get Nigeria? Dude, go and sit down. You are an intellectual pygmy if at this your adult age you illogically believe, despite uncountable examples to the contrary worldwide, that intellectuals automatically make good leader and that average intellect precludes one from being a great and successful leader. We do not need Buhari to be Einstein. What a Nigerian President needs to have more than anything else, because of our peculiar problems, is unshakeable political will because nothing can be achieved by even the greatest intellect without this. Buhari has that more than all the names you mentioned and certainly more than someone like Okonjo-Iweala who, with her much vaunted intellect, came in and became a 'tool' that abetted the worst and most shameful looting of Nigeria's commonwealth ever seen. You simply make me laugh with your rudimentary outlook that is easily discredited by the reality and history of Nigeria.
Am seriously amazed that we have great thinkers like you in Nigeria. God bless you for this remark and citations

Nigerians believe that politics is about 123 and ABC or classroom polynomials.

Without even finishing the article, let me say that Dele Momudu is a mor.on, one of our numerous flaky intellectuals and half thinkers, who simply play to the gallery, the political gallery.

A journalist , a pseudo-intellectual who proudly calls himself " a Tinubu boy" should not be taken seriously on any political discourse.

First correction:
Buhari is NOT our great leader.

There is absolutely NOTHING in Buhari's past or resume that remotely earns him the appellation of " our great leader"
Anyone that calls Buhari " our great leader" at this point in his stewardship is a CERTIFIED ASxx KISSER.

Second correction:
Buhari himself, while in London last week, did not mince words in lamenting the heaviness of his burden and his confusion and dizziness to confront them.
In other words, he is admitting that statecraft is much more than he bargained for and telegraphing his confusion and incapability.
If Dele Momudu says that he sees the opposite in Buhari, then surely, either Buhari was lying or Dele Momudu is lying or simply delusional.

Third correction.
Buhari became a major general not because of any outstanding academic , intellectual or leadership credentials. In Nigeria, we all know that what it takes to become a major general.
Do not pretend that you do not know.

To affirm a point you are trying to make, Buhari is a lonely man simply because he is being true to his nature.
He has surrounded himself with his geriatric brethren, oh- yes men , cheerleaders and praise singing journalists cum pseudo-intellectuals like yourself.

Buhari is not hardwired for pluralistic views and opinions. There is no one in Buhari's inner circle of geriatrics that would tell truth to power.
He has already sidelined people much smarter than himself, such as the Finance Minister, the CBN governor, etc.

The very fact that despite the putrid air emanating from the budget fraud fiasco currently engulfing the Nation, Buhari has neither addressed the issue publicly nor has he began to clean his house is all the proof that Buhari neither has the liver, the intellect, the wisdom nor the political will to confront and deal with the complex issues of statecraft objectively.

Now, let me continue reading the op.

Ur words should be framed in glass and sent to Momodu and Buhari. Well said.
