An ex-aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, says it is sad that the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), travelled to Paris recently but did not attend the burial of his late Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, in Abuja on Saturday.

Omokri tweeted, “Sad that President Muhammadu Buhari did not attend the burial of the late Chief of Army Staff, (Lieutenant) General Attahiru. He was represented by his Defence Minister (Maj. Gen. Bashir Magashi (retd.))

We know he's in a vegetative state and so incapacitated .

As such wasn't expecting him to attend.

Other world leaders honour the death of even corporals with their presence.

Even when men , women and children are butchered in large numbers . He never attended or said anything.

But the only thing our president attends is hospital visits and checks up.

But he can gallivant around the globe ,doing paparazzi and interceeding 'on behalf of Africa'..

Before british doctors go reach nigeria...Islamic burial rites go done expire.


U think am na.

Buhari doesn’t understand what is going on again!

Baba wants to save his head!

I will tell you for free that Buhari will not enter airplane for the next 3 months.

Lol!

If they could take out the Chief of Army Staff, who is the vegetable kwanu?

Omokiri u shld try shut up sometimes, haba.

Stop masturbating to PMB issues, a man who doesn't even care about u or never answered any of ur insults

My brother what for?

Could it be that there was beef... And the beef lead to a bird to fall out of the sky.

So elchapo of asorock didn't go for the burial of his head honcho.

Nigeria is fukd

Probably spent the night mourning a patriot, too weakened to show

Shut up Reno. U too dey talk joor. Nonsense!!!

He should have honestly..

He owes nobody an attendance

Why are you expecting someone who doesn't know what is going on in his home to be aware of the happenings outside his home? Things doesn't work that way,he needs to be briefed so he doesn't fall their hands but God will keep exposing them.

helinues:
He should have honestly..

Coming from you am SHOCKED

what's special about his presence

Buhari is the father of the nation, irrespective of his age either younger or older than the dead, he is not supposed to be at the grave side of anyone as a father to all.

Its BAD for the moral of the troops risking their lives to battle insurgents, kidnappers, bandits etc.

What message is PMB sending?

The COAS died in a crash and he doesnt bother to attend the burial taking place at his backyard.

I'm so pained.

We are talking about COAS here, Gen Buhari should have attended...

The mannequin didn't prepare well. He doesn't want to be caught.

Buhari’s Absence At Ibrahim Attahiru’s Burial Raises Eyebrows
====
The absence of the president, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) at the burial of his Chief of Army Staff, Lt General Ibrahim Attahiru and other military personnel in Abuja on Saturday, raised eyebrows.

Some Nigerians on Twitter wondered why Buhari failed to show up, given the event was in Abuja.

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri tweeted, “Sad that General
#MBuhari did not attend the burial of the late Chief of Army Staff, General Attahiru. He was represented by his Defence Minister. Attahiru died serving Nigeria. Buhari, who went to Paris for 4 days, could not go to Attahiru’s funeral for 30 minutes."

Popular Twitter user, JJ Omojuwa said, “If you can go to France, you can attend the burial of your COAS + others and use that platform as an opportunity to reassure your troops whilst celebrating the loss of our gallant men. But I shouldn’t tweet this. I shouldn’t attract unnecessary negative energy to my timeline.”

Abiola Sanni said, “I’m very disappointed heartbroken This is the least the President could have done.”

Ken Utah tweeted, “This is a good point but again what do we know? The level of secrecy being perpetrated is shocking to comprehend considering we are supposed to be in a democracy.”

Truth is buhari needs days of preparation in other not to mess up in public for every public outing and even at that his speaking would be reduce to the minimum and avoided if possible

He is afraid he could be killed. That's what happens when you can no longer manage a country effectively

I thought the rumour peddled over the years was that Buhari has died? Why is Reno still expecting the dead to attend a burial?

BabaO2:
Buhari is the father of the nation, irrespective of his age either younger or older than the dead, he is not supposed to be at the grave side of anyone as a father to all.

Oluwa ooooooooooo.....we have a long way to go in Nigeria, with this type of reasoning from her citizens.

Which buhari? He's unaware of his death.

All those happy for his death will eventually die

He is still in shock !!!!!


That man that doesnt have priorities

Anyone that still believes the man in Aso Rock is the REAL Buhari needs a brain transplant.

I said it before, all those who died on that plane died for nothing. Rip anyway

Nigerians lambast Jonathan for singing, dancing at campaign rally while nation mourns bomb blast victims


Nigerians have reacted with outrage over President Goodluck Jonathan’s visit to Kano to welcome former governor of the state, Ibrahim Shekarau, to the Peoples Democratic Party, a day after a car bomb killed dozens of Nigeria and injured several others in a suburb of Abuja.

The government said 75 people died while 124 others were injured although body count by witnesses and a PREMIUM TIMES reporter suggest over 200 Nigerians were killed.

Insensitive, irresponsible, terrible, and wicked are some of the words that have been used to describe the president’s political visit to Kano.

“Let’s face it, is it even proper, as a father, for the president to be dancing at a rally and clinking glasses at a chief’s party just the day after?” said Betty Abah, journalist and activist. “What really would happen if he sends representatives while he pretends he’s meeting security chiefs? Even if he doesn’t care, is this even good for his image? What message is he sending out? He did same during the Centenary celebrations. How do you explain this crass insensitivity?”

“It is plain insensitive, really. It an evident that the leadership of this country does not take our lives seriously at all,” said activist lawyer, Bamidele Aturu.

“Over 200 people were killed by Boko Haram insurgents. Less than 24 hours later, the president was in Kano on political mission. That tells you they don’t take us seriously and our lives don’t count for much. That is the height of insensitivity I have seen in recent times,” he continued.

“He wouldn’t have lost anything if he had postponed the campaign for another one or two months and let the people who are bereaved come to terms with the gruesome reality,” he added.

Mr. Aturu said the President’s action showed the huge disconnect between Nigerians and their political leaders.

“Our people need to understand that there is a big disconnect between them and the people that leads them who only require them to vote to be in power.”

We know you Igbos hate PM and you are full of hatred and bitterness, history says GEJ remains the most heartless, cruel and uncaring president in the history of Nigeria.

A man that was so cruel and insensitive that when BH bombed and killed dozens of Nigerians in Abuja just a few miles away Aso Rock where he sleeps, instead of caring and showing empathy and even console the victims and their families, the heartless man flew over them to Kano to dance Azonto.

In less than 24 hours after Boko Haram killed over 200 Nigerians, the useless, uncaring and incompetent man thought flying to Kano to dance Azonto was his main priority.

That was the gross apex of insensitivity and irresponsibility, that useless and incompetent man remains the most useless president in the history of Nigeria.
