denko: Buhari is a great man in his own right and I respect him as an elder statesman. But as far as a democracy is concerned in this digital age and time, Buhari is not the best that Nigeria has to offer.

Abuse of power is the worst form of corruption in leadership. Buhari abused power when he was military Head of State.

When Buhari seized power, he threw Alex Ekwueme into prison in KiriKiri and kept Shehu Shagari under house arrest. How do you explain such double standards?

During Buhari, journalists were brutalized, hushed and muzzled. Tunde Thompson and Nduka Irabor were jailed under the evil laws of the Buhari regime.

During the Buhari regime, 53 suitcases were smuggled into the country at a time the nation's borders were closed because of the change in the colour of the national currency in 1984. Have we forgotten?

Under Buhari's regime, there was a law against 18 year olds going to Hajj. Tunde Idiagbon took his 14 year old son to Hajj and nothing happened.

Lawal Ojuolape, Benard Ogedengbe and Bartholomew Owoh; these three men were ordered to be executed by Buhari under a retroactive decree for the crime of drug trafficking which didn't carry a death penalty wen they committed the crime.

The late Tai Solarin was imprisoned and refused treatment for his asthma by this same Buhari.

Secretary General of the ruling NPN Uba Ahmed who was Buhari's tribesman was arrested at the airport only to be released on Buhari's orders and allowed to fly out of the country.

Buhari, like IBB and Abdusalami Abubakar treated the Oputa Panel with disdain. He refused to show up at the panel.

I will not vote for Buhari in 2015; not even if he picks the Pope as his running mate.
Well researched lies. But bros, If you pay more attention to investigate why you are jobless to research these piece about Buhari, You wouldnt have been as poor as you are today..just my opion

What evidence do you have against Buhari in the Death of Youth corp member? Did he carry gun to kill them. You need to be very careful bro. Most NYSC corp members are yet to be paid their April allowance now, some of them are suffering in my environment here because of unpaid allowance Under GEJ Govt.

People don"t seem to understand what this whole boko haram imbroglio is all about. the bitter truth is that this whole escalation of the boko haram scourge is directly related to the results of the 2011 presidential elections. the conservative northern elite have analyzed the voting pattern and discovered the unfolding scenario of nigeria"s political reality. they northern leaders seem to have reached the conclusion that the votes president jonathan got from the northern part of nigeria to roundly beat the northern candidates came largely from christian votes resident in the north. they seem to have concluded that henceforth, southern candidates who are mostly christians, can get the statutory geographical spread to win future presidential elections with or without the support of the conservative northern political elite. they see this as a potential end to their stranglehold on nigeria"s political,and economic life wire. so they seem to have decided to take decisive action to remedy the situation.these escalations by boko haram are not primarily to make nigeria ungovernable for president jonathan. the devious plan seems to be a decimation of the christian population in such a way that by 2015 when national elections will hold again, the emerging pool of northern christian votes would have been neutralized. the boko haram attacks are directed at achieving the following aims. first, the persistent attacks against christians,and churches will have a direct impact on christian evangelism and church growth. this will result in a halt in the growth of the christian population in the north. secondly,the incessant attacks which have heightened insecurity in the north will make southern christians resident up north to take flight and relocate from the north to the south. thirdly , christians
of northern origin will be cowed out of fear for their dear lives to think twice before openly supporting or voting for christian candidates in subsequent presidential elections. subsequently therefore,every southern candidate who intends winning the presidential elections will have to contend with the northern muslim votes. in other words, the southern candidates must rely on the contribution of the northern political elite who have a control over their people to get the necessary geographical spread. by so doing, they hope to restore the mystical political invincibility of the "monolithic" north. to them,no sacrifice is too much to make in this bid to reclaim the "lost" political glory of the north. all collateral damage to northern socio-political, cultural and economic interest in the short run, is worth enduring. after-all, the huge legitimate, and illegitimate benefits derivable from the possession of the office of president of the federal republic of nigeria ,far outweighs such "minor"temporary inconveniences. thi accounts for the seeming silence on the part of the northern leadership over the escalation of the boko haram scourge. this to me is the truth of the matter.

bayooooooo:

Buhari is not, in a word, electable.

He does not have the capacity to move Nigeria forward. Infact, GEJ is still more intelligent than Buhari who had a brilliant chance to defeat PDP but squandered the opportunity only to be crying over an impending electoral defeat which he suffered in any case. He sees no other competent candidate but himself. He can not negotiate, make deal, or persuade. The only language he understands is violence, violence and his delightful expression of how blood would flow. Have you ever watched him mouthed the phrase "something bloody will happen in 2015" and how a sudden expression of joy written on his face? He is arrogant, selfish, blood thirty, sharia loving, non cerebral, a very timid soldier who by all definition not worthy of ever downing the colors of Nigerian military attire. Any vote cast for that man is a betrayal of intelligibility,a betrayal of history, a betrayal of secularism in Nigeria, a betrayal of peace and the eternal enthronement of arrogance, selfishness, incompetence and retrogression beyond what's currently bedeviling the nation. Since 2003, this man has not found someone worthy to also back as a supporter, what a profession! What a career! What a hobby! SAI Buhari a professional presidential candidate will surely appear on his epitaph.

As usual, I expect him to campaign, tour Kano and Maiduguri twenty times telling them that a vote cast for an infidel is a vote against Allah. I expect him to talk of Baboons and blood flowing like the River Niger. I expect him to form another party, SAI BUHARI PARTY of Nigeria, when the likes of El-Rufai chase him away from CPC. I expect Buhari at the end of it all to blame it on rigging. Of course in 2016, a year into the new administration, I expect IBB to call him an upright man so he can start preparing for 2019 elections!


Sai Buhari my foot!

No, my broda, u got it all wrong.if our progressive party so to say(ACN)had ve several tyme wants to work wit dis guy and his people der is a high level of acceptance.

And without being biased the only person alive that can do this is Maj. Buhari.

Once you have tasted power, you will want to hold on to it again because power intoxicate and make one feel he's more equal than others! Buhari might be an Up Right man to so many people but to me he's not because he had the chance to prove that by publicly criticizing the onslaught of Boko Haram but he is and was no where to be found. Politics should not be based on Religion, Ethnicity, skin colour or Regional Affair and that is what the North have failed to understand Hence backing Buhari to contest again instead of preparing other capable candidates! I see Buhari losing again and if he loses again, I foresee massive violent in 2015 because he will be ready to show his barbarism openly by then.

I think and believe he still did better than Ibo soldiers who murdered all nationalists and Nigerian founding fathers except those of Ibo race when they carried out the Nigeria first ever military coup, all in the name of saving Nigeria. If Igbo soldiers and race through their greed and quest for power had not carried out first Nigerian coup de tat, would Buhari have followed in their footsteps? In fact, we wouldn't have found ourselves in this mess we're today. Some people killed with impunity while the other merely put them in prison which they later regained their freedom and you still had guts to compare. Get a life!

i dont think i have commented on Nairaland since the end of 2011 elections in which i supported General Buhari, financially, and campaigned vigorously.

But his present declaration has chased me out of silence. and i think he should not contest. terribly disappointed.

we do need him if we must chase PDP out of power in 2015, based on the support base of the North. but he needs to just groom and endorse a young man now, and with the ongoing talks with ACN, a fashola as vice presidential candidate. Buhari raising the hand and campaigning for a El Rufai in the North will secure the North for us, and A fashola as vice president from the south will do the magic from the south. and PDP will be a goner.

but with this Buhari declaration, there is trouble for the opposition. Buhari is far more unelectable in the south than he was in 2003, 2007, 2011. the stigma against him in the south is beyond deliverance!

i do hope God will make him change his mind.

and the question is why has Buhari been the most talked about opposition figure in Nigeria? same as Obafemi Awolowo who contested 1983 elections in his 70's. give to him please! it is only Buhari that talks and PDP starts opening their mouth in self defence. and he remains the most feared man by the corrupt few killing this country. i adore Jerry Rawlings who changed Ghana as a die hard Military Rule, I respect Sankara who almost did same in Burkina Faso. for Buhari almost doing it for Nigeria, I will always respect him. until we crush corruption and the corrupt in this country, this country goes no where.

no country develops without social justice! and Nigeria will not be an exception.

as for Jonathan, my silence in the last one year is always troubled by the thoughts of 'how did Nigeria get this man elected?'. it is absolutely shameful.

I expect him to talk of Baboons and blood flowing like the River Niger. I expect him to form another party, SAI BUHARI PARTY of Nigeria, when the likes of El-Rufai chase him away from CPC. I expect Buhari at the end of it all to blame it on rigging. Of course in 2016, a year into the new administration, I expect IBB to call him an upright man so he can start preparing for 2019 elections!
