barcanista: That is because you guys see everything as "Investment". Buhari followers doesn't follow him because he is rich or he holds a political office. You are a classical example of your kind. No wonder you queue behind anybody in Power.
Your type are needed in TAN

Rawani: Barcanista i was laughing at their unfettered display of ignorance throughout on the other thread. What a waste of bandwidth under the guise of truth-seeking. The benighted numbskulls don't realize all ex-presidents are entitled to pension and several allowances, including N500,000 at the end of each council of state meeting. They are also entitled to periodical replacement of cars and are provided with other perks such as official residences, domestic staff, medicare, annual trip abroad etc as you rightly stated. General Buhari enjoys these perks, in addition to be a member of the Board of Trustees of the APC, which has Governors that bankroll it's activities, aside from numerous donations from supporters.

General Buhari is an accomplished administrator that has led this country with integrity and discipline, and his discreet and humble nature makes it difficult to properly identify his individual investments where present, considering he is the only Nigerian leader that left office without soiling his hands with stolen funds. His stint at the PTF is a testament of his capacity, which is why we support him to be the next President of the federal Republic of Nigeria.

donphilopus: I've since given up on these PDP e-mourners. They keep asking foolish questions always. The question we should be asking ourselves is: “Why are these people so concerned about Buhari if he's no threat to them? Why ain't they not concerned about Babangida, Abdusallam et al?”. I don't even think Buhari's lifestyle can even be compared to that of IBB and Abdusallam, yet they are so concerned about him!

Whether y'all like it or nor, Buhari would be sworn in as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces come 2015!

Gbawe2:

Bro, don't bother explaining anything to these duplicitous charlatans. If Buhari was the quintessential Nigerian politician who looted copiously and used his stash to fund a business empire, spanning the universe, they will be the first to say he is coming back to "steal more" as they do with Atiku and others. Now they want to indict Buhari of a crime, by hook or by crook, because the man is not garishly materialistic and crookedly capitalist as most Nigerian Politicians are. Sad lot these Jonathanians. Always tripping over their own shoelaces.

blasterman: He is too old to be president when he was a young man in his 40s what did he do .

At this age he shd be an adviser when he is needed

musaibnabdul: NIGERIA, SAI BUHARI. Uncorrupted, distinguish stateman, a Gen among Generals. He moves we follow. The messiah of Nigeria's dilemma. He's done it before and would do it again. 2015 by
his Grace.

So basically, you are trying to say that Buhari has not added anything to Nigeria's GDP 30 years after the coup that ousted him?

I'm less interested in his source of funding. But, the idea that he has no business, He employs no Nigerian, He adds nothing to the GDP of this country is so not cool.

Obasanjo employs thousands of Nigerians in his farm and is an important player in the agricultural sector adding value to our GDP and helping Nigeria grow in measurable terms.

The same with Shonekan and his NGC is an important player in chemical and allied sector of the economy.

Atiku's intel is a big player in oil and gas logistics.

Though there are other past presidents who doesn't have a distinguishable business endeavors. But for someone aspiring to lead this country again, Not having any meaningful Investment in the economy of the country for 30 years can be interpreted as not having faith in Nigeria. As not willing to invest in her future.

And I find that disturbing.

No amount of attempt to re-write history by this children of sorrow can obliterate the fact that Gen Muhammadu Buhari belongs to a different class that 10 Generations of PDP members led by GEJ can ever attain

barcanista: Man what is your phucking point?

oshyno: U have just made a mockery of ursef.

Soo invariably Buhari lives on pension. Daz silly to think he has contested presidential election 3 times , bankrolled election petitions with pension savings ? C'mon

Uv gat to do more than what u just spewed.

manny4life:

Unless if I misunderstood the question, @Noblezone asked, "WHAT DOES HE DO FOR A LIVING", it's either he's working, engaged in some kind of expert level consultancy or advisory or whatever or simply retired. What he does for a living has no bearing on what he earns as a past govt official because whether he works or not, he is eligible for the pay. This is just my opinion.

poiZon:





The last time i checked IBB n ABDULSALAMI are enjoyng their loot n aint thinkng abt contesting for the post of presidency cause it ill hv bin a mockery to nigerians and also they atleast are sensible and still acts as advisers when needs arises unlike ur baba buhari, a cmplete lIABILITY to the nation, his advice to the youth can be felt faraway in the south negatively n is still being paid by awa oyel money without employing even a soul nor contributing to federation account. .n investment that contributes to alleviating the sufferings of the youth. in USA this man wont even contest for councillorship post cause he isnt even a bad or good manager. but a LIABILITY, DEFICIT!

beopened:

You have said it all..........The Nigerian youths( those who think like you opined) indeed are a despicable lot!

If Buhari had stolen like IBB and co.......and like most of today's politicians,it is the same accursed youths that will still call him a thief and a looter

But Buhari is as clean as a whistle yet they are not satisfied,they just want to demonise the man in order to position their clueless choice as the less of 2 evils

No amount of attempt to re-write history by this children of sorrow can obliterate the fact that Gen Muhammadu Buhari belongs to a different class that 10 Generations of PDP members led by GEJ can ever attain

barcanista: @Noblezone and others, I hope your question has been answered.

those 2 you mentioned up there aren't desperate to lead the country again. That's why we aren't so concerned about them.
In reply to to the OP, I'll paste my comment from the original thread.

That is what they are. All nauseatingly steeped in 'herded' and cult-like blind followership.
