Voting for Buhari was inevitable. The other option was untenable. Scratch that...there was no other option.

We did what we had to do to get Nigeria right and we will do it again. The way it's looking, we'd be doing it again pretty soon because Nigeria is nowhere near 'right'.

People are jaded and do you blame them? Honestly, do you really blame them? There are days I am emotionally drained about this country. I can't join this praise singing and say things are better. Maybe they will be but right now, I don't feel it. I sincerely hope things get better.

But we did what we had to do on March 28 2015. I am not apologising. I have no regrets. I will do it again. It shows how shitty the other option was that a man who had been rejected 3 times was voted in. We voted for hope.

It's been a tad disappointing and frankly, sometimes mind boggling the way things are being bungled left, right and centre but we will keep pressing on. 4 years is not a long time. Shape up or ship out. No time for iskanci.

I still have hope. As unreasonable as it seems. I do but if things continue the way they are going, that hope will die. It's no biggie. It is what it is.

So please, stop insulting those that are sorry they voted for Buhari. People have a right to be disappointed. Leave them alone. If they want to apologise let them. You don't have to accept their apology. I still for the life of me don't understand why they're apologising. They are better than you. You people still haven't apologised for wanting to foist GEJ on us a second time. Kuku kill us na.

And what is all this 'I told you' nonsense, you didn't have a better option so zip it. If I hear pim! The country was going to hell and we slowed down the pace.

You should be thanking us goddamnit.

You should.

It was inevitable to those whose reasoning was
covered by pure hatred for GEJ. Those who searched for perfection from a human but ended up
embracing the devil just to mock the humans.

[size=18pt]Red Dawn: The Zombie Awakening[/size]

In the past 48hrs social media has been awash with many a repentant die hard "zombies" declaring their apology for campaigning with much zeal for the tyrant Buhari.


Don't let them fool you.


Most of the once avid change chanters are not in anyway repenting from their zombie ways out of concern for the deteriorating state of living and suffering currently sweeping the landscape but rather for their own selfish interests.


Long before twitter war lords like that shameless Omojuwa started renouncing their Buharist stance, here on nairaland avid APC propagandists have since gone cold in their support for Buhari .


It had nothing whatsoever to do with how Buhari continues to misrule our nation but because they felt cheated out of his govt. and the monthly stipends they once use to enjoy from their respective APC handlers has since stopped flowing.


Buhari being the ever sectional bigot from Duara went for an Ab0ki as his personal adviser on New Media - a first position ever created by any Presidency which translates roughly to an online chief propagandist.

The Lagos based shilling mafia littering cyberspace with all manner of cheap sleazy propaganda prior to the 2015 presidential elections has been relocated to Aso Rock.

Just like our malleable pay-per-post touts like TonyeBarcanista who will not hessiatate to bend down for the highest bidder, these political face shifting wh0res are only using their sleazey reputations as online shills to blackmail the Duara despot into accomodating them into his govt.

But what these shameless zombies for hire didn't bargain for is that Buhari does not give a rat's ass on what is posted and circulated on social media.

Buhari did not care when we complained of his pointless junkets , rather he increased his global tourism when we were shouting the most.

Buhari did not care of our fears of him running a one man show when we begged him to appoint ministers , rather he told us blankly that "ministers are mere noise makers".

Buhari did not and still does not give a damn about his Fulani herdsmen and the disturbing tacit support they get from his govt.

Or did Buhari care to do anything about the 2 month lingering fuel scarcity leading to the unprecedented hike of pump prices on fuel?

I can go on but let's just leave it at that.


What I do know is that these shameless jobbers made a career out of hating Jonathan.


Their handlers in the APC paid good money to these shameless clowns for them to post all manner of rubbish and cheap lies coupled with unrelentless insults on the person of the former Goodluck Jonathan and his wife. In order words GEJ was the reason they had a career as online shills in the first place.

I will only advice these shameless men and women of the shilling order to appreciate the huge differences inherent in the characters of Buhari and GEJ. While Goodluck will gladly look the other way as you hurled your sleaze , the Duara despot will send his dogs after you.

This isn't the first time Buhari has shown such "use and dump" characteristics.

In his first despotic coming, Buhari rode on the wave of a well orchestrated and relentless SW controlled Press propaganda against the Shagari regime. Just like during the GEJ era, the cry of "corruption" was highest under the civilian democratic govt of Shagari. All this of course was orchestrated by Awolowo to discredit the Shagari regime among his gullible newspaper reading populace in the SW. It is on this same fake corruption propaganda that Buhari used as an excuse to overthrow Shagari.

On getting to Dodan Barracks, Buhari knew very well the dangers the SW press mafia could employ to discredit his military junta, thus the need to enact the most draconian law ever enacted in the land in the form of Decree 4.

This is why the Buhari administration wasted no time in attempting to pass the now rejected Social Media bill - to effectively check the SW online propaganda machinery controlled from Bourdillon.

So my immediate advice is that you either Shutup on your endless online rants or find a way to get the Special Advicer on New Media to the Presidency to integrate you into his shameless office or wait till 2019 election year to be reassigned a temporary contract to paint the despot as a saint.

You will stand with Buhari and even follow him to the grave like the proverbial fly as you were all collectively part of the reason we have this incredibly unqualified individual in all ramifications as our President in the 21st century.


So Enjoy your damn Chanji!

knightsTempler:
Some people need to be reminded that Goodluck Jonathan is gone and he is not coming back. So no need to keep running in circles, looking for excuses to defend Buhari and why Jonathan was not an option. Don't feel threatened.

What should threaten you is an Economy that is moving haphazardly without direction under this regime which have increase hardship and suffering.

So when next you buy a bucket of Garri for 800, a bag of rice for N20,000, fuel for N145 (that might soon become N180), cooking gas for N4,000, Kerosene for N300; keep saying "GEJ wasn't an option".

When your family members lament to you about how things have become worse, tell them "GEJ wasn't an option" because it makes you feel good.

Iranu!!!

The funny part is that Northerners will always support their own it will only take a miracle for Buhari not to win in 2019.

The South West still hold the key to Aso Villa in the next general election

Yorubas be trying very hard to justify their glaring failures. You made a heck of a mistake, bite the humble pie, apologize and move on, mbanu, never! Coming down from their high horse is a onerous task.
Saying a simple "sorry" is an abomination.
Let's tell ourselves the bitter truth, yorubas voted out the last administration cos they didn't like the face of the man in power, they couldn't just fathom any other than a SW or Northerner in power. But just like in the case of Mandela, whose greatness shone brighter after he left power, the same now applies to the immediate past president. Whom God has blessed, no man can cause.
We know you guys made a mistake by preferring a dullard to be ur leader and we're seeing the obvious effect, buh stop with the justification of your inadequacies and errors of judgment, Nigeria has moved on long ago.
And if you still feel haunted by your past action (esp as the hunger is biting harder [boy! no one eats like the yorubas], and you can't reconcile urself with the realities of today) , then knock urself out with this.......

Bros stop spewing trash,, nobody hates gej,,Nigerians voted him out because we saw no future in him....and if the current administration proves to be the same we simply look for the best alternative no matter the party he rep or where he might come from,,,,the east,south,west or north...all we need is to be objective and stop this silly rants of hatred

Nigeria Ranked Least Prosperous Nation In The World
In spite of the new found status of Nigeria as the largest economy in Africa, the country has been ranked not only as one of the world’s least prosperous countries in 2014, but also one of Africa’s poorest nation beaten by smaller countries like Niger, Benin, Mali and Cameroun, an annual global prosperity survey released this week has said.

According to a report released by a UK based Legatum Institute, a research organization that documents annual prosperity indicators around the world, listed Nigeria as the 125th out of 142 countries surveyed.

Despite Nigeria’s acclaimed $510bn economy, the nation failed to make the list of Africa’s top 10 most prosperous countries, a league dominated hitherto by Botswana and South Africa.
