Buhari Has Greatly Divided Nigeria. by Nobody: 10:06pm On Aug 15, 2017 |
I received the news on the attack on Charlie Boy with great shock but I was not surprised. Charlie boy through his utterances and passion showed that he loved the nation but his love is misplaced. Nigeria is unsalvageable. The elites will continue to feast on the carcass of Nigeria but will never allow her people to go their separate ways to achieve their God given potentials. I know majority of Igbos (particularly Nnamdi Kanu) would be delighted at what happened and he is right to feel that way. Nigeria is not united and it would never be. People say that poverty is the cause of disunity and that if all Nigerians were fairing better, peace would have been entrenched therein. People go further to cite the example of how the elites get along. I feel that is a lame and pedestrian excuse as it is normal to put all differences aside when money is being shared. The elites don't necessarily love themselves, thwy just have to ignore the ethnic and religious differences when money is being shared. As for the Hausas, they have once more proved to be the wiser of all tribes as they stood to be counted for Buhari today. If there is any igbo or Yoruba man who doubts the seriousness of the Hausa on the Oct 1st ultimatum, please see what they did to a whole Charlie boy. I and majority of Yorubas voted for Buhari and I can tell you that we all now regret our choices even though we hide it(Yorubas hide things a lot). We were warned but we chose to ignore it. Even though they say it is not good to wish a fellow human death, one can't just help but wish this man dies so we can all move on as a people. His leadership style and the division it has brought leaves us with no other choice. I will conclude by saying if there is anybody(especially southerners) that thinks Nigeria has hope, I fervently beg you to wake up from your slumber as the country would continue to slide downhill with the elites being further enriched. The country has no soul anymore. 11 Likes 1 Share |

We were warned but we chose to ignore it.Typical Yoruba and I too know! Funny thing is some people even among Yorubas still see restructuring as a threat to their survival,not to talk of splitting the country. Now because of that singular "oversabi" miscalculation of the Yorubas,the whole of Nigeria has to suffer! 14 Likes 1 Share |

Charly Boy is lucky not to be thoroughly beaten for that his visit to Wuse. How could you carry your protest to Wuse market when all those traders are diehard Sai Baba supporters. Maybe it's a clash of cultures. Those traders and most of us are praying for the recovery of Buhari and you're disturbing us with your useless protests. When they sighted you at that Wuse, what would come into their mind was you're one of those who'd wished the president death. 6 Likes |

Guestlander: Should I spoon feed you like a baby? It is also glaring that he's an hateful bigot who can't help himself. Donald Trump, as bigoted as he condemned the Charlottesville killing by a KKK member. When you become the President, you become a statesman who treats all fairly. I can't explain since you are willfully blind. I have had it with most of you fellow Yorubas who keep playing the ostrich. 10 Likes |

Alcatraz005: Can you feed your silly self? What have you done as a citizen to foster peace and unity between your fellow citizens? Most of you come online to heap insults at each other's tribes on a daily basis for absolutely no reason at all and you are accusing someone of being a bigot! You cannot go a day without seeing Buhari's obituary on the social media and that started even before he became president and you are talking of bigotry. Have you cured yourself of your own bigotry? 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Guestlander: By the grace of God, I can feed myself. On the issue of my contribution to Natipnal unity, I would admit I have not been too loving of my fellow Nigerians but I am just a citizen and you can't compare me with Buhari who is suppose to be a father figure to all Nigerians. His tenure has less than 2 years left and his legacy would forever be there for all to see. Posterity would never forgive him. 5 Likes |

Alcatraz005: Buhari is a citizen just like you and I my brother. He has only one vote just like you and I and I don't consider him my father figure. He is my employee as far as his position as president is concerned. If in the next election I don't consider him or his party worthy of my vote I will give it to someone else, period. But the accusation that he divided Nigerians is just not true. 3 Likes 1 Share |

vedaxcool: I am a Yoruba man and a Christian for that matter who never liked Jonathan for his corruption. Buhari however came on the groundswell of goodwill and support going by what he met on ground but he has failed woefully. He has divided his citizens on the basis of ethnicity and religion. Under him, thousands of Christians were killed and we didn't say anything due to party affiliations (Card carrying member of APC) but this is getting too much. What justifies the attack on CB in Abuja? Is the right to peaceful assembly not guaranteed in our constitution? Have we faired better economically under him? As for your allusions or innuendoes that I am part of the igbos who from inception hated Buhari, I state that it is not surprising as I have been baptized with that since Saturday and I am used to it. Nigeria won't be a police state. Not now, not ever. We all have a right to constructive criticism of a government wombling and fumbling. You think we have not seen how they have silenced pastor Yemi? What have you as a Yoruba man said about that? Enu e le wa yen, ato ye yin! 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Guestlander: Osinbajo is a push over who can't even speak up for himself not to talk of fellow citizens. If I start talking about his weakness, we won't leave here. He has not only failed Christians, he has failed RCCG, Ogun State (My dear state as we ain't no pushovers), he has also failed the South. I do not reckon with him as he is a pastor who may not be inclined to play real politics. I rather not discuss him,please. |
