Honestly, this one shouldn't be considered as plagiarism, but as an inspiration from De Gaulle. It could also be possible Buhari and his team wrote that without knowledge of De Gaulle's.

But, why always Buhari quotes?. How about our system of education?

If Buhari committed plagiarism, then that serves us well. Because, the so called education we acquire in schools in Africa is the BIGGEST plagiarism of all time!. Everything about it was copied- down to the language we use.

How many laws in your physics class was formulated by a Nigerian? How many theories in your economics class was formulated by a Nigerian?

Aren't you all always quoting white man's theories in class?

Plagiarism: a piece of writing that has been copied from someone else and is presented as being your own work. When u are educated u don't need to argue blindly simply because u are a fan of d culprit. Even Mr. President has admitted the mix up and promised to sanction the "overzealous staff". So tell me Prof.,what is your point

"Plagiarism is the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own." It doesn't have to be word for word. You can see both expressions are similar, therefore Buhari plagiarized De Gaulle's. Therefore, you are wrong in calling others fools, because you are the stupid one in this case.

Blinding leading another blind. I hope you're not one of Buhari's so-called expert from Daura.

An honest man would have said, "like Charles de Gaulle said in his speech, I belong to all, and belong to nobody" That's how honest people speak.

Thank God for showing us the true Buhari and his evil followers who came to deceive us as if he is fighting corruption: Buhari is corruption himself in every sense of the word.

You sure don't know what plagarism is.

Plagarism doesn't necessarily hv to be word for word, infact you can just put the original words or quote but most important is you should give credit for other people's work.

If i tell u: according to late president Charles of france who said he belongs to nobody bla bka nla. I'm proud to say i also belong to nobody bla bka

The above is not plagarism cos reference was giving.


If i tell u: i belong to nobody bla bla, without reference then this is 100% plagarism cos no reference was giving.


Just like i'm plagiarising ladyf 's slogan


Plagarism isn't a big offence in naija so i guess you schooled or live in naija. But if u sure live abroad especially in western countries then you'll surely no what exactly and how important plagarism, copyright infringement, stealing intellectual properties are.

the representation of them
