Explosive! Independence Day Broadcast & The Hypocrisy Of Buhari By Charles Ogbu by kp3tech(m): 9:41pm On Oct 01, 2017
Listening to president Muhammadu Buhari’s independence day broadcast, I was left wondering if, in addition to Hausa/fulani Muslim supremacy, hypocrisy has equally been made official govt policy under his rule.

Aside reminding us of how he took part in killing over 2 million Biafrans during the Biafran war and threatening to kill more in his idiosyncrasic arrogance, the Daura born ex-soldier again showed his deep seated hatred and generational grudges for the people of the Southeast. But he added small “jara” today by playing the now boring, tiring and outdated Divide and Rule card by promising to look into the agitation in the Niger Delta while swearing he would unleash thunder and lightning on the “hot-headed” and “irresponsible” people of Southeast

In reference to the Nnamdi Kanu-led Biafra agitation in the Southeast, president Buhari said and I quote,

“I am disappointed that responsible leaders of these communities do not warn their hot headed youths what the country went through. Those who were there should tell those who were not there the consequences of such folly”
Just so we are clear, only a man whose very existence rests on violence will interpret a call for a Referendum as a call for war.

IPOB is not asking for war. They are asking for a Referendum which is the right of indigenous people recognised by all laws known to man. And the group is neither armed nor violent. No act of organised violence has been attributed to IPOB so far. All they do is stage rallies which have never witnessed even a stampede despite the large crowd.

And most importantly, the Biafra agitation draws its very oxygen from two things:

1. The refusal of some very powerful but retrogressive elements in the North to allow for a genuine restructuring of the country to enthrone justice, equity, fairness and merit.

2.President Buhari’s highly divisive, vindictive and mostly commonsensically utterances, actions and inactions since he assumed office as president.

Having stated these, I have some questions for Mr Buhari,

How many of his “hot-headed” Boko haram kinsmen did he warn when they (the boko haram terrorists) were killing, maiming and bombing schools, markets, churches, police and military installations with the attendant harvest of blood, something they are still doing even as I type this??

How many?

The answer is nil.

Instead, he (Buhari) was busy going from one radio house to another, defending the group rated the deadliest terror group by global terror index. Buhari didn’t just defend them, he made it clear that any attack against the terror group was an attack against the North. In return, Boko Haram nominated him (Buhari) as their mouthpiece in a failed peace talk with Jonathan govt. Since assumption of office, it is on record that he (Buhari) has released numberless boko haram senior commanders imprisoned by the previous govt of Goodluck Jonathan.

As I write, the Fulani herdsmen who share the same religion and region as president Buhari have continued to kill and maim only people living in christian dominated area, with govt-sponsored impunity.

Rather than warn these “hot-headed” fulani terrorists, president Buhari has continued to protect them with a special military taskforce.

How can such a man retain the mindless audacity to call Igbo leaders “irresponsible” for not warning their youths who are only protesting the grave institutionalized injustices of the Nigerian state being aggravated by his own nepotism and clannishness??

Between President Buhari and Southeast leaders, who does the “irresponsible” cap look better on?

Let me remind President Buhari that him and all those who are opposing Restructuring are the biggest catalyst of secession.

By actions and inactions, he (Buhari) has divided Nigeria in a way a million Nnamdi Kanu could never have been able to.

Those who think the Biafra agitation can be quelled with guns, tanks, intimidation and cheap blackmail are grievously mistaken. Even if it is just an Igbo man that is left standing in this Lugard Cage, as long as the injustices and state-sponsored killings which necessitated the 1967 Biafra still persist, that one Igbo man will still cry towards Biafra.

A wise man once said and I can’t agree more, “peace can only be a child of an intercourse between justice and truth”
President Buhari must understand that any peace that is not a native of justice can only be a peace of the grave yard which is no peace at all.

Buhari is just working hard to destroy Nigeria... An not against separation of this country because The structure the British left is dead on arrival...

but it must be done with round table dicus, dialogue... It must end with agreement and treaties.

That is the way forward..

But Buhari is just doing everything possible to force war on Nigerians...

War that we don't want to fight... because it benefits no one....

Buhari would have to end up fighting this war alone.....

All through the Independence day speech the old bastard kept hitting on Biafra agitation and how much the cowardly Igbo leaders have disappointed him, while cleverly avoiding talks about the huge amount of money wasted on his vegetable health, the menance of his Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen brothers and, most importantly, the deplorable state of the economy and way forward.

Kunu-sipping old bigot!

Am sorry to say this but President Buhari as old as he is sounds like a very foolish man.
