So duke was actually saying... Buhari, adisa and abdulsalam were involved in the bitumen racket. Dan etete became the fall guy for the whole racket and ended kneeling to beg.

The most painful part about stories like this is that, Duke is 56/years old now, in 1993 he was 31, so he was already working in a presidential cabinet at 31 and by 1999 at 37 he became a governor. How many of us can write or tell such story about ourselves today? Painful. Truly painful.

Though I'm grateful for my position, but I look around and still see a lot 30+ not knowing where to start in life. It hurts me to the core. Sometimes I wish I can help more than I currently do. Nigeria which way? Is this how your best talents will be wasting away?

Zoning, tribalism, and turn-by-turn won't allow Duke to go anyway near the presidency.

The "owners of Nigeria" designed the country so they control it. It is why northerners cried during Jonathan years because they thought they're losing that tight grip on Nigeria, eventhough they dominated Jonas government and were building schools and roads in the north while the SouthSouth waited.

The Yorubas supported the north, in exchange for second-place crumbs. Buhari is tightening that grip again by dominating government institutions with fulanis. All appointments go to them today. The armed forces they control. NNPC they control. Every critical appointment go to them. This is how the fulanis and core northerners see Nigeria, as their private property.

We can stop this madness. But, ofcourse the struggle for second-class citizenship between the Yorubas and Igbos is why Nigeria will remain doomed forever! A Donald Duke's presidency remains a dream.
I love your insight. Until Igbos and Yorubas grow above petty rivalry, the hausa/Fulani hegemony would fester.

No you don't. You may think you do, but in truth you don't. You may think you have an idea of what is going on, but you just can't imagine the enormity of what is going on. If Nigerians know, this country would have been broken into pieces.

99% of what you read in the news are PR contents (press releases and hear-say). Only a few are real journalism and they are very hard to come by. Our politicians have perfected the act of hiding the real truth. They have even mastered they act of hiding a perfect secret in the open. It will be staring you in the face and you still won't see it. Nigerian politics is a cult. Who no go, no go know.

Nobody saw the statement. "Abacha abhorred corruption".

He is so mentally ill he desired to be the only one allowed to loot Nigeria.

Donald Duke is an Abacha boy just like Orji Uzor Kalu and James Ibori. It is not experience you are discovering but complicity​.

But would you rather have someone as intelligent as this or buhari whose intelligence can best be compared to that of a 2 year old?

I don't think buhari can spell the word sophisticated even

You should criticize Donald Duke too. In this interview, he said that Abacha abhors corruption
