Former Aviation Minister and now political and
social critic, Femi Fani-Kayode has questioned
APC flagbearer Major General Muhammadu
Buhari’s credibility going into the 2015 General
elections.
Fani-Kayode extensively looked through the
actions of the former president and decided to
shin some light to the former amy man’s
actions…
Excerpts:
The forces of light shall surely prevail over the
forces of darkness and God’s counsel alone
shall stand over Nigeria. I stand with Jonathan
and I say ‘’lets dance’’, ‘’lets get it on’’ and
‘’may the best man win’’.
Yet whilst doing so we ought to consider the
words of Miss Dora Ade Bentley. On December
11 on her Facebook wall, she wrote the
following: ‘ ’Jihadi groups killed more than
5,000 people last month, with Iraq topping the
league table of deaths, followed by Nigeria,
Afghanistan and Syria.
In 664 incidents recorded in November by the
BBC World Service and researched jointly with
King’s College London, the overall death toll
was 5,042, or an average of 168 deaths per
day and nearly twice the number of people who
were killed in the 11 September 2001 attacks
on America. After Iraq, Nigeria, Afghanistan and
Syria, Yemen was fifth in the deadly league
table, tying with Somalia, with 37 incidents
each’’.
All these and some people still say they don’t
know who they want as President? An
individual once said, only last year, that ‘’an
attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the
North’’; in 2001, that he wanted to ‘’spread
Sharia throughout the federation’’; that
“Muslims should only vote for Muslims’’; that
‘’why should Christians be concerned when
Muslims cut off their limbs under Sharia”; and
that ‘’after all the limbs that are being cut off
are Muslim ones and not Christians; so why
should the Christians other about it?’’
Since some are partial to Buhari, let us subject
him to a little scrutiny right here and now. Let
us put a few questions to him.
Former-Military-Head-of-State-General-
Muhammadu Buhari
Let us judge him by what he says and does.
On July 22, 2014, he told The Nation
Newspaper: “Our country has gone through
several rough patches, but never before have I
seen a Nigerian President declare war on his
own country as we are seeing now. Never
before have I seen a Nigerian President deploy
federal institutions in the service of partisanship
as we are witnessing now. Never before have I
seen a Nigerian President utilize the common
wealth to subvert the system and punish the
opposition, all in the name of politics.
Our nation has suffered serious consequences
in the past for egregious acts that are not even
close to what we are seeing now. It is time to
pull the brakes’’.

If you ask me ...
