I disagree wit u.wen u say he's d most trustworthy among them!among how many of them? We are not looking at GEJ alone now.we have oda contestants.I wanna ask u does it mean dat Buhari don't have anyone whom he can support despite puttin himself again?since he trust no one,den I don't trust him too and will nt vote for him.I will rather look for pple with sound minds.not non-compliant folks like GEJ and Buhari

Fooolish old tyrant
Shey na your birthright to dey contest for presidency all the time?
It speaks so badly about the Nigerian project for expired and useless tyrants like Buhari to feature in every presidential election

BlackPikiN: I will never forget Buhari. He turned the other way when CORPERS were killed in various part of the north.


Satan punish Buhari!

When CPC unleashd violence all through the northern region Buhari didnt say a word H̶̲̥̅̊ό̲̣̣̣̥ώ wud he wen d trouble has been stage planned? It started from his home town Daura katsina state, Ŋ¤τ̲̅ to mention other PDP party members whose lives and properties were destroyed and unlucky christains too that died, he said no word about til today. No apologise or did he even denounce the CPC planned riotgs. Why did they drop Mohammed Abacha CPC Gubernatorial candidate over night? After using the guy's (Nigeria's lost funds) to nationally capitalise CPC and buhari dare speak and show his old ugly head about free and fair election
God kill him!!!

This makes me laugh, After shedding much Blood via his BH tool now he and his co killers want to rule Nigeria. NEVER WILL IT HAPPEN. INSTEAD NIGERIA WILL DIVIDE. BUHARI WILL NEVER RULE NIGERIA AGAIN. MARK IT

I concur with 95% of what you say here, however, Abacha never stole our money it was Obj's propanganda with the help of his western backers/masters.
The funds supposedly recovered from Swiss banks did not belong to Abacha, which is why Obasanjo could not account for what he did with the money after he "recovered" it.

fork adict: THIS IS TO ALL ANTI BUHARI POSTERS:

The first question i have for you all is that do you all believe that corruption in all its ramifications is our biggest threat to greatness as a nation?

Second question. Do you all believe that before we can fight corruption as a nation, we need to have a someone that has been tested with our funds and enormous resources at any level of government in the past and has been confirmed not to have embezzled our money as our president?

Third question? As a military head of state where you have unrestricted access to all our funds and where you do not have to account to any barger how you spend our money. Do you all know that agree that it takes an honest man to have been a military head of state of this nation not to have embezzled our funds? Do you guys have any forking clue as to how much guys like Babangida, AbdulSalaam, OBJ, Sani Abacha really embezzled? FYI any figures you may have come across as the amount embezzled by these individual guys is just a minute fraction of how much they truly embezzled. There are other monies that are 'untraceable'. And these monies even far outweigh the declared figures. Yet Buhari occupied the same office as these rogues and did not embezzle a kobo. No one repeat NO ONE has been able to accuse Buhari of corruption or misappropriation of public funds. Rather his antagonists attack him along tribal and religious lines.

Question number four. If you guys believe that Buhari is not a worthy choice, then mention an honest politician in naija's political landscape today. who has been tested and whom you feel is incorruptible. Please give me just one name.

Question number five. It really is unfair for you guys to accuse him of being a major sponsor of Boko haram when there has not been any evidence presented on any medium to suggest this. If you want to attack someone, please do so with some credibility. Please research and back up your claims with some evidence.Its just an honorable way of discrediting someone;s candidature to an office. Only illiterates and market women talk like most of you guys do when you name him as Boko haram's sponsor, Ayatollah, blah blah blah.

I understand that Buhari may have been careless in his speech a couple of times, but guys, let's cut him some slack. Let's forgive him his past mistakes and let us move forward. Tribal and religious sentiments will never get us anywhere as a nation. We need men of integrity to lead us come 2015. WE NEED BUHARI!

GenBuhari: I concur only that Abacha also never stole our money it was Obj propanganda with the help of his western backers/masters.
The funds supposedly recovered from Swiss banks did not belong to Abacha, which is why Obasanjo could not account for what he did with the money after he "recovered" it.

Please just stick with your support for Buhari and stop trying to make Abacha look like a saint.

Dude, if the Devil contested against Buhari, IN NIGERIA, the devil will win.

There are sections in Nigeria that are so blinded by hate . . . . . I just don't understand it. Is it illiteracy? Is it ignorance? What is it that would make a people look at evil dead in the face, accept it, then convince themselves, while suffering, that they've made the right choice? GEJ will win again because of tribalism. Buhari will lose again because theres a section of Nigeria that is opposed to change. They claim to want it, but they're always on deck to do everything in their power to avert it each time it (change) rears its head. On their Coattails GEJ will ride to victory again.

General Buhari can run, but two questions arise.

The first question is, WHERE IS HE RUNNING TO?
The Second question is, HOW FAST IS HE RUNNING?
lol.

As for GEJ, he has ONLY this year to deliver at least ONE FULLY FUNCTIONAL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN SOUTH EAST NIGERIA, else I might catch up with Buhari, no matter where he is running and how fast he is running. Political na wild animal.

racino:
Please in what capacity do you want Buhari to talk to boko haram to stop their attacks, my friend dont make me laugh. Buhari is not the CIC, jonathan is and he should better live up to his responsibilty. You were all shouting into our ears that jonathan was a God sent and that a niger deltan must rule inrespective of his glaring lack of any leadership quality and now you want someone else to do the job for him. Presidency is not for the clueless and lilly livered like jona.If he cant stand the heat let him get out of the kitchen. And for the record, Buhari did not take nigeria to OIC, Babangida did.

Oh! was it Babangida? My Bad. However, I still don't want Buhari as President.

And talking about his ominous silence over the post- election violence in the country, I (as an Elder Statesman) would have urged my people to shun violence and embrace peace. That'd be a good way to project himself as not supporting violence.

Have you even seen the pictures on the post - election violence that are flying about on NL? You'd notice that those people are protesting and killing other people, just because Buhari did not win. They carry placards of his Posters and KILL people too.

And you think it's wise for him to be silent about this?

Take note: I said I won't vote GEJ in 2015, but I would also not have a Buhari as my President.

.NET

I'll vote for him again!!! @ least let's try something different than a party that has nothing to show Nigeria but "CORRUPTION" in d past 12yrs of governance.
-What has happened to d money being recouped from d increase in the price of PMS since January?
-Where's the report of the probe panel set up by the house?v
-The bench mark for crude oil for this year is 65 naira, it presently sells for over a 100naira, yet nothing is happening.
Many other things still wrong and things are getting worse.
.
Yoruba's will say- "orisa bo ba gbemi, wa semi bi o ti ba mi" meaning if the oracle doesn't make one wealthy @ least it should leave one with status quo(or as one was before going to the oracle)!!!

nuclearboy: There's simply no way Nigerians can say they don't deserve the pain, the troubles and frustrations they are going through

We are living through and witnessing an outright disaster yet tribal and other petty sentiments still outweigh reason in us! Tragic! Those supporting Buhari brought documentation while those against slander, insult and play the Ostrich - yet these are mainly supposed Christians who do not wish to be slandered even as they slander! You are sowing lies and will reap same 100 fold soon enough, pressed down, shaken together and running over!

Because the joke is on us. Your "love" interest only last year upped emouluments for past heads of State to 2Billion a year! So while you sit smugly behind cheap fones or in cafes to slander, its you who are being slandered! No matter what you want, GMB gets his 2B annually, most of which goes to charity! He wept for you because within the next year, things will be so difficult in Nigeria that most of the slanderers here would have sold their phones to eat! its 3.6B that's left now right? And NNPC is failing to remit to the federation account? What of when the "Tompolos" have emptied the ECA and crude prices drop? What of when you find salaries cannot be paid and your future has been "shared" by GEJ's transformation into hellfire? Apparently, your economy's coordinating minister has seen the handwriting on the wall and is desperately trying to run (while covering her tracks by telling us there are problems). What happens after she runs and doomsday arrives?

I will save the URL for this page & in a year, we'll revisit!

Im sorry, but personally I want GEJ to win again and again and again. Maybe when Nigerians start dying in their millions of hunger while the politicos keep getting fat, maybe then the populace will rise up.

Make tis man stop dey embarass himself nw!

cute08: Make tis man stop dey embarass himself nw!

You mean how Abraham Lincoln embarrassed himself.

Dis man will b 85yrs in 2015, 4 goodness sake

He would be 73

Even if he was 103 , he would still be much much better than Obasanjo and all subsequent PDP presidents put together!!

I challenged anyone 2put 4ward anoda person dat has held public offic nd neva been indicted.Is it el rufai dat has countles charges nd court cases against him or Ribadu dat was 4mally Obasanjo stooge nd later Tinubu stooge. Until d people can look nd c beyond dia noses Dat s wen we wuld knw BUHARI s d missin link.

GenBuhari: He would be 73

Even if he was 103 , he would still be much much better than Obasanjo and all his PDP predcessors put together!!

If u are campaigning for smeone who is 73 leaving behind vibrant youths with strong aSpirations and sound minds den it means u have sold ur relevance to clueless old folks.wat does d future hold for u as a youth?we have vibrant contenders like pat utomi,dele momodu etc.we culd advocate for pple like oby ezekwesili and raji fashola etc,rather u r putting ur hope on an ageing general!its a shame on u.does it mean if ur father is 80,u will stil b lookin up to him for leadership instead of taking over frm him proving u can take up such challenges?buhari only used military force to deal wit issues but its noot realisable under a democratic settings because dere is separation of power!corruption is not just at d govt level,dere is corruption in ur house,compd,street,workplace,school,everywhere.for GEJ/Buhari to perform all hands must b on deck.if CPC is corrupt free why did dey allow abacha's son to join dere camp.and why did buhari served as PTF chairman wen abacha was busy siphoning our tax payers money?if he was a saint,y didn't he resign dat abacha govt was corrut? Buhari,GEJ are jst d same clueless,non-compliant old folks.dis guys r cut off frm modern reality.

barba: I challenged anyone 2put 4ward anoda person dat has held public offic nd neva been indicted.Is it el rufai dat has countles charges nd court cases against him or Ribadu dat was 4mally Obasanjo stooge nd later Tinubu stooge. Until d people can look nd c beyond dia noses Dat s wen we wuld knw BUHARI s d missin link.

Dis is the lamest post av eva read.does it matter if he stole directly or not.he wass PTF chairman under abacha regime.d regime dat destroyed our country wit senseless looting.wich physical project did buhari did in d south ?rather dan printing textbooks for southerners and bulding roads and infrastuctures in the North wit PTF money?is dat not biased.during 2003 general election buhari told northerners dat christians shuld vote christians while muslims shuld vote muslim! Is ddat nt a religious bigot?does it mean u as aperson is not ashamed dat u re not forseeing a youth as a possible future Nigerian president?pple like u will still allow ur father at 100yrs to attend family meeting for u rather dan taking up the challenges as a youth and represent ur father. Shame on u

For the BLOOD of the innocent corps members, for the BLOOD of northern children, women and fathers, for the BLOOD of Christians that were linched in the north, for the BLOOD of innocent souls that have died due to Buhari's ethnic politics and religious fanatism, oh God, let Buhari not see any light in Nigerian politics even if he contests for a million times. AMEN!

Who dares? Who can say that IF he or she is wrong in saying Buhari was directly responsible for the deaths of those children corpers, that he or she should suffer the wickedness of being lied against and reviled for unjust cause?

People just open mouths and spew tripe! Well, here's an opportunity - curse yourself IF you are lying against him, whether deliberately or not!

If someone lost for four conservative time, that is the time he should immediately realize nothing will change the fifth time, you'll loose again.
It is just desperate!!!

I wonder how many mob-murders and suicide bombings will be ordered by this horrid little Boko Haram terrorist financier when he loses his 25th stright presidential election, assuming that the long overdue hellfire missile from a Predator drone does not silence the hysterical bleating first.

see how people fear an anti- corruption leader

Buhari is the last chance for all those thieving politicians to repent and return their loot, because if Buhari does not get to stamp out corruption a military dictatorship may end up executing all these thieves.

It seems to be inevitable.

Buhari is only looking for a chance to come get the usual share of the national cake he lost out from getting due to a sudden push out that happened to him then by his wiser and evil genius brother - IBB. Let him go and rest and stop preaching to us that he would do anything better than what we see today. He can only come in and start his own version of loots, and would do so with every passion of his Islamic fanatism and ethnic sentiments. I really pray he doesn't smell the sit again, cos this will be a chance for him to do the looting all of you here say he never did.

^
you have exposed you severe ignorance about Nigerian history

Buhari has been chairman of NNPC, Petroleum Minister, Chairman of Petroleum Trust Fund, Governor of North East Nigeria, as well as Head of State.
Yet he never looted, although he had ample opportunity to do so if he was so inclined.

[size=18pt]General Buhari's Maiden Speech: - 1st January 1984[/size]

In pursuance of the primary objective of saving our great nation from total collapse, I, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari of the Nigerian army have, after due consultation amongst the services of the armed forces, been formally invested with the authority of the Head of the Federal Military Government and the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. It is with humility and a deep sense of responsibility that I accept this challenge and call to national duty.



As you must have heard in the previous announcement, the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1979) has been suspended, except those sections of it which are exempted in the constitution.The change became necessary in order to put an end to the serious economic predicament and the crisis of confidence now afflicting our nation. Consequently, the Nigerian armed forces have constituted themselves into a Federal Military Government comprising of a Supreme Military Council, a National Council of States, a Federal Executive Council at the centre and State Executive Councils to be presided over by military governors in each of the states of the federation. Members of these councils will be announced soon.The last Federal Military Government drew up a programme with the aim of handing over political power to the civilians in 1979. This programme as you all know, was implemented to the letter. The 1979 constitution was promulgated. However, little did the military realise that the political leadership of the second republic will circumvent most of the checks and balances in the constitution and bring the present state of general insecurity. The premium on political power became so exceedingly high that political contestants regarded victory at elections as a matter of life and death struggle and were determined to capture or retain power by all means.



It is true that there is a worldwide economic recession. However, in the case of Nigeria, its impact was aggravated by mismanagement. We believe the appropriate government agencies have good advice but the leadership disregarded their advice. The situation could have been avoided if the legislators were alive to their constitutional responsibilities; Instead, the legislators were preoccupied with determining their salary scales, fringe benefit and unnecessary foreign travels, et al, which took no account of the state of the economy and the welfare of the people they represented. As a result of our inability to cultivate financial discipline and prudent management of the economy, we have come to depend largely on internal and external borrowing to execute government projects with attendant domestic pressure and soaring external debts, thus aggravating the propensity of the outgoing civilian administration to mismanage our financial resources. Nigeria was already condemned perpetually with the twin problem of heavy budget deficits and weak balance of payments position, with the prospect of building a virile and viable economy.




The last general election was anything but free and fair. The only political parties that could complain of election rigging are those parties that lacked the resources to rig. There is ample evidence that rigging and thuggery were relative to the resources available to the parties. This conclusively proved to us that the parties have not developed confidence in the presidential system of government on which the nation invested so much material and human resources.While corruption and indiscipline have been associated with our state of under-development, these two evils in our body politic have attained unprecedented height in the past few years. The corrupt, inept and insensitive leadership in the last four years has been the source of immorality and impropriety in our society. Since what happens in any society is largely a reflection of the leadership of that society, we deplore corruption in all its facets. This government will not tolerate kick-backs, inflation of contracts and over-invoicing of imports etc. Nor will it condone forgery, fraud, embezzlement, misuse and abuse of office and illegal dealings in foreign exchange and smuggling.



Arson has been used to cover up fraudulent acts in public institutions. I am referring to the fire incidents that gutted the P&T buildings in Lagos, the Anambra State Broadcasting Corporation, the Republic Building at Marina, the Federal Ministry of Education, the Federal Capital Development Authority Accounts at Abuja and the NET Building. Most of these fire incidents occurred at a time when Nigerians were being apprehensive of the frequency of fraud scandals and the government incapacity to deal with them. Corruption has become so pervasive and intractable that a whole ministry has been created to stem it.



Fellow Nigerians, this indeed is the moment of truth. My colleagues and I – the Supreme Military Council, must be frank enough to acknowledge the fact that at the moment, an accurate picture of the financial position is yet to be determined. We have no doubt that the situation is bad enough. In spite of all this, every effort will be made to ensure that the difficult and degrading conditions under which we are living are eliminated. Let no one however be deceived that workers who have not received their salaries in the past eight or so months will receive such salaries within today or tomorrow or that hospitals which have been without drugs for months will be provided with enough immediately.We are determined that with the help of God we shall do our best to settle genuine payments to which government is committed, including backlog of workers’ salaries after scrutiny. We are confident and we assure you that even in the face of the global recession, and the seemingly gloomy financial future, given prudent management of Nigeria’s existing financial resources and our determination to substantially reduce and eventually nail down rises in budgetary deficits and weak balance of payments position.The Federal Military Government will reappraise policies with a view to paying greater attention to the following areas:



The economy will be given a new impetus and better sense of direction.
Corrupt officials and their agents will be brought to book.
In view of the drought that affected most parts of the country, the federal government will, with the available resources, import food stuffs to supplement the shortfalls suffered in the last harvest.
Our foreign policy will both be dynamic and realistic. Africa will of course continue to be the centre piece of our foreign policy. The morale and combat readiness of the armed forces will be given high priority. Officers and men with high personal and professional integrity will have nothing to fear.



The Chief Justice of Nigeria and all other holders of judiciary appointments within the federation can continue in their appointments and the judiciary shall continue to function under existing laws subject to such exceptions as may e decreed from time to time by the Federal Military Government. All holders of appointments in the civil service, the police and the National Security Organisation shall continue to exercise their functions in the normal way subject to changes that may be introduced by the Federal Military Government. All those chairmen and members of statutory corporations, parastatals and other executive departments are hereby relieved of their appointments with immediate effect.



The Federal Military Government will maintain and strengthen existing diplomatic relations with other states and with international organisations and institutions such as the Organisation of African Unity, the United Nations and its organs, Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries, ECOWAS and the Commonwealth etc. The Federal Military Government will honour and respect all treaties and obligations entered into by the previous government and we hope that such nations and bodies will reciprocate this gesture by respecting our country’s territorial integrity and sovereignty.




Fellow Nigerians, finally, we have dutifully intervened to save this nation from imminent collapse. We therefore expect all Nigerians, including those who participated directly or indirectly in bringing the nation to this present predicament, to cooperate with us. This generation of Nigerians, and indeed future generations, have no country other than Nigeria. We shall remain here and salvage it together.

May God bless us all. Good morning.

GenBuhari: see how people fear an anti- gcoruption leader

Buhari is the last chance for all those thieving politicians to repent and return their loot, because if Buhari does not get to stamp out corruption a military dictatorship may end up executing all these thieves.

It seems to be inevitable.

If Buhari is d last chance then it means u have no future ahead of u.does it mean among 150million nigerians including u,dere is no one that is fit to rid Nigeria off corruption apart frm dis ageing,non-compliant general,den it means u are doomed

jmaine:

My oga . . . How levels na ? . . .concerning the topic . .make baba "Hari" no go rest . . . E be like say him no dey learn lesson after comprehensively trashed

I dey o my bruv. I tire for Buhari self. Na by force? He should go and sempe and leave the stage for younger aspirants.
Anyways, it shall be well with Naija.

Major-General Buhari was selected to lead the country by middle and high-ranking military officers after a successful military coup d'etat that overthrew civilian President Shehu Shagari on December 31, 1983.

At the time, Buhari was head of the Third Armored Division of Jos. Buhari was appointed Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, and Tunde Idiagbon was appointed Chief of General Staff (the de facto No. 2 in the administration). Buhari justified the military's seizure of power by castigating the civilian government as hopelessly corrupt.
