obakovich: Just confirmed from obinna that he is leaving Ameachis Goverment. We await the final straw that will end the goverment this coming week.

Sincere 9gerian: Four days after declaration of state of emergency and commencement of military operation in three states of the north, Buhari is yet to speak on the issue.

We have heard from all the major political parties (PDP, ACN, ANPP, CPC, LP, APGA), some leaders of the opposition parties ( especially Tinubu, Ribadu), prominent lawyers (Femi Falana and co), labour leaders, public affair analysts, Nlanders,etc but one voice that is CONSPICUOUSLY missing is that of General Muhammadu Buhari.

One would have expected Buhari as an elderstates man and someone positioning himself to lead this country in future, to speak on this issue.

Unfortunately, so far, its deafening silence from Buhari. Does his silence imply rejection of SOE, support for SOE, nonchallance or CONFUSION? To avoid speculations, our dear general should speak up.

Jakumo: Please do not distract our Ayatollah Buhari Bin Laden while he is trying to fight a war.

With his ragtag army of virgin-seeking Mujahadeen fleeing in terror before the might of the Nigerian federal troops advance, Ayatollah Buhari must be getting worried about his own personal safety right about now, as the air strikes and artillery bombardments draw ever closer to his lair.

Ayatollah Buhari Bin Laden, if anybody you know is reading this, I urge you to die like the chimpanzee that you are, with a blazing gun in each hand. When the federal troops show up in your town, resist the temptation to flee, and attack the first platoon that you encounter. It is ONLY if you follow these instructions to the letter that your 72 in heaven will be reserved per agreement.

malc619: Isn't Daura Buhari's hometown??

Hope GEJ isn't trying to "fall" the retired General..

Sunny_bobo:

Be ready to go on exile then.

Sincere 9gerian:
You dont have to be president before you help in solving national problems. It was not the "c-in-c" that identified the Boston bombers. It was the people in the community that identified one of the suspects and alerted security agencies.

Buhari and other leaders of the north should deploy their leadership position to assist in curbing Boko Haram. If they continue to be lukewarm, that'll be very unfortunate. But certainly, the leaders of the north cannot ascend to Aso Rock on the back of ongoing blood bath in the north. That is a FACT. If you read Buhari speech today, he conspicuously tried to score cheap political points with the ongoing Boko haram menace. But he'll certainly fail

Are you TB Joshua, you seriously need to stop weeping and lamenting on your imminent loss come 2015, not good for your health

Dede1:


Did you miss your way too?

I will not allow you to cross a slightly busy traffic carriageway without an adult holding your hand.

musiwa26: Is Christiane Amanpour an Iranian muslim

I dont get her story.

Ricky_Ross: Bunch of clowns. In sane lands these 2 criminals will be jail, but in Nigeria they are hailed and praised because we are silly and dumbbb. We keep praying for God to change our leaders, while as the power is in our hands to keep these foools where they belong.

One street guy was given 24 year jail term this week for stealing a governors phone. Tell me why IBB should not spend the rest of his life in jail?
