The whole of the North is going up in flames, but Yar Adua sees fit to travel out of the country. Is it that there is really someone else in charge, so it doesn't matter if our Great Leader is present when flames are engulfing Nigeria? I'm really beginning to wonder!

Listen to what he said;

"I have just finished meeting with our Defence Chiefs who have been in constant contact with the governors of Borno, Bauchi, Kano and other states," he said. "There has been very serious action. In fact, we have the situation under control now and I believe by the end of today everything will have taken shape."

Is this right?
