mikolo80: Which is focus of this thread...In his personal deals; I won't question his integrity. But he who goes to equity must go with clean hands...How much integrity is remaining in you if you allow governors to use other state's fund for your personal ambition? Will he have the moral right to jail those who stole to foot his bills? |

gists It was simply a section by section statement of myopic, sentimental, indiscreet and propaganda based words...So no need honouring such with my time and energy. As a leader, to answer your question... you consider the bigger picture of security, economic and general implications of your decisions and actions. Mind you; I choose my words. I don't like you base on sentiments hence I never said buhari sponsors boko haram because I have no evidence to substantiate that claim...but his numerous statements shows that he is 100% sympathetic to them and he believes Nigeria should be islamized...remember boko haram acknowledged this fact by appointing him as their mediator with FG... In all, GEJ can't arrest him for simply showing sympathy to boko haram because its not a crime constitutionally. More so, GEJ in his mien allows opposition to get away with some treasonable statements(remember, amechi's talk of parallel government)... Same is applicable in his allowing buhari get away with some irresponsible and parochial statements... Anyway, I am still waiting for you based on the topic of this thread to tell me where buhari will derive the moral right to fight corruption?? since he is already soaked and surrounded by corruption? Where is his manifesto?? Or is his manifesto "insulting GEJ" without basis... 1 Like |
Re: Why Buhari Will & Can Not Fight Corruption. by gists: 7:46pm On Dec 22, 2014 |
Whynotthetruth: For APC manifesto, do a simple google search on nairaland. Its been posted on a number of threads on NL. As to how Buhari will fight corruption, that is the simplest thing to do on this planet. First, he simply need to lead by example and not stand in the way of justice like gej was/is doing. FFK has some case with efcc. He know he will be off the hook if he joins the gej team and that is exactly what he did. Today ffk is off the hook and he is antagonising the opposition. Corruption cannot be stopped by one administration. I for one NEVER asked gej to stop corruption because like I said many times in the past, gej didn't start it. What I and many Nigerians accuse him of is his getting in the way of justice and shielding corrupt people from prosecution. Why on earth will a president call stealing "common". NNPC $20b is a classic example where the whistle blower got sacked and those that could not account for money are still in office. But to you I guess I am being myopic and sentimental. Now on the issue of Bigger picture vis-a-vis GMB's arrest. Here you go again accuming me of being sentimental when I only presented the facts as-is. And please spare us the hypocracy of "you consider the bigger picture of security, economic and general implications of your decisions and actions." why was the bigger picture foreign investment and economic implications not considered when he sacked SLS for blowing the whistle (even if he was wrong) over the unaccounted $20b. Instead he sacked the CBN governor sighting laughable accusation of financial recklessness (not corruption or embezellment) while those that cannot and have not accounted for the other $10b are still in office. Today price of crude oil have dropped substantially and within three months we are already feeling the heat. Why was the bigger picture of security not considered when pdp used underaged voters in 2011 and failed to provide security? Don't tell me it CPC that was formed barely 4months to the election, without any state government backing that pulled that staunt off. BTW check the picture below before you accuse cpc of using under age voters. In the end, innocent lives were lost because the government was not responsible enough to provide security for it people. YOu later turn arround and blame it on GMB. BTW it looks like you have not been following that case that is why you still believe GMB was behind the loss of lifes after the election. Abati that started this propaganda has been sued to court by Gen. Buhari in a N1b lawsuit. Luckily for him, GEJ came to his rescue with an apology to GMB and persuaded GMB to settled out of court. Abati not only retracted the publication but also published an apology stating this propaganda you are so busy spreading is completely false. Read and be informed - except of course you are just being mischievous as usual Presidency begs Buhari to settle slander case out of court
I guess with all these, I am still being myopic and sentiments again - right?

gists Now, first, what I need is Buhari's manifesto not APC manifesto...What's his template?? what and what has he mapped out and how he intends to achieve them. Believe me, any serious candidate would have drawn up a guide long time ago(remember, he's being in the race for long)....Where is that of buhari Where he did an analysis of our current status and how to take it forward?? Mind you my bro, I am no politician. I am just a concerned citizen who believes in honesty and hard work...thank God so far for his grace to me... APC(ACN,CPC,ANPP)/PDP are all guilty of rigging and underage voting and registration...it simply boils down to a question of who outsmarts the other in any contest... In the case of Sanusi, blowing whistle for me is childish...He was part of the government... what stops him from verifying his claims before going public why would he discover some misgivings without giving his principal a benefit of doubt licked the letter to the press? Imagine, your wife has a damaging information about you instead of first coming to discuss with you....she licks the information to outsiders thereby embarrassing you(husband) before now coming back to discuss with you....How would you feel...sacking him to me was necessary... why If you have worked in any reputable organization... on assumption, you sign an oath of secrecy not to disclose official secret to outsiders and to follow official line of resolving conflicts....is sanusi suppose to embarrass his boss like that even when he wasn't sure of the actual figure....? What do we Nigerians really want When security was provided in ekiti and osun, we screamed militarization... what do we want bro, atimes I pity these leaders seriously... The truth is that the post election violence was done by buhari fanatics.... I listened to that presidential media chat and also, heard his analogy and how he arrived at that "stealing is not corruption" dictum...which most of us today quote OUT OF CONTEST... Did you hear when auditor general said NNPC account is too complex(not normal day today cashbook and balance sheet account) for his staff to understand and analyse... Are you aware when they(FG & Senate) invited an international agency to undertake the audit Are you aware when the minister said few weeks ago that the audit firm will be rounding off their assignment soonest? So what again do you want GEJ to do? To sack all NNPC staff when he is yet to even know exactly what is missing and how it is missing? Even you wrote $20 & $10 billion hence acknowledging same confusion?? Anyway, this thread isn't about GEJ....so why not take me back to our topic? how will buhari fight the likes of jagaban, bukola saraki, amechi, et al who are neck deep into corruption....?? If he sincerely believes in anti-corruption crusade; why would he allow them to use state resources for his personal ambition? remember, he said he has only one million naira....or will it be about selective justice, selective prosecution, selective victimization, selective witch hunting?? how will he do it?? In this jet age...under democracy...with human rights law.....how will he do it? not just shouting "I will stop corruption"...How?..... I will provide electricity.... how?....present a working verifiable template; let's see.... 2 Likes |

gists Truth be told, you have no well founded evidence to support this claim of yours other than sentiments and your emotional attachment to GMB...Yes, because since the advent of this GMB presidential dream, he has NEVER for once declared his plans(constructive, verifiable and empirical) plans on how he hopes to do it better than GEJ...His campaign manifesto so far is based simply on insulting GEJ and stocking the embers of sentiments of his lowly life...Remember, his declaration where he quoted false figures and subsequent PDP redress and challenge to him... So how do you know he has better plans than GEJ Or are you a mind reader ? I need his(buhari) blueprint for Nigeria... |
Re: Why Buhari Will & Can Not Fight Corruption. by gists: 3:43am On Dec 23, 2014 |
Whynotthetruth: I just want you to sincerely ask yourself - which sane country will leave a civil servant in office (or even in private sector) who has been indicted of corrupt practices of such magnitude? You leave him/her in office while investigation is on-going so he/she can tidy up the loose ends and clean the records abi? Very daft. As for election security. It just shows your hypocrisy again. In how many states have election been held after 2011? Why was it that only elections in APC controlled state in SW militarized? Did election not hold in Anambra, Ondo (non apc controlled) and edo (non SW)? Were all those not considered free? So it is only elections conducted in APC states in SW (a region that had the most reasonable result in 2011 compared to 93%, 95% etc election results in SE) Ekiti and Osun that deserved to be militarized. Chief Oyegun said in the wake of the election in Osun that he (Oyegun) and only APC officials/agents were arrested. There is absolutely nothing wrong in arresting them as long as they are found guilty of anything that could have undermined the election. But till date, there has been nothing they were accused of. All pdp officials were saints on that day I guess. Just continue with your hypocrisy. BTW mobilising military men during election is different from providing security after the results are out. There was no case of violent during election in 2011. I guess the main aim is to flood everywhere with military men during the election, but when you have achieved your aims, you recall the military guys and the people can do whatever they like to themselves - right? I am pretty sure no one can convince you of the ineptitude and corruption and the impunity in this gov. So, I just save my energy and focus my efforts towards more productive ventures. Whynotthetruth: As for the campaign manifesto of Buhari. I am not aware he has officially started campaigning. Why not wait for him to start his campaign then ask this question. For me I am not looking for much from buhari, just provide security (because we have been waiting for decades and we can continue to wait for good roads, electricity etc but we cannot afford another day of insecurity) and a sincere/brave reduction of corruption - Period. That will set the stage for real growth for the next administration to build on. There is no any nation can have any kind of meaningful growth when its plagued with these two tragedies. BTW I don't recollect what gej's manifesto is other than to regurgitate the failed promises of 2011 - the 2nd niger bridge, the anambra port, electricity come to mind - failed to deliver all of this after 6yrs of blaming everything and everybody and even dragged us behind with religious divisional antics. |

gists I am getting bored by all these sentimental essays laden with inaccuracies. I only need simple, unambiguous, straightforward and concise answers. Not quoting me and telling me cock and bull empty analogies. Why're you being selective even in the ones you quote. Why not answer all the questions therein. Let's go again; 1) What's buhari blueprint?? because he never stated any when he declared (which should have been his mainstay that day and not abusing GEJ). And since then; till now he is yet to show any. Let's be civilised bro. Our campaigns should be issued based not laden with abuses, vulgar languages, and insults. Where's our values? Or are you telling me buhari has none?? 2)Given that he has only one million naira, which isn't enough to campaign in a single local government. How will he finance the deficits Because, you know financial institutions can NEVER borrow him money for campaign based on the risks(do your risk analysis) involved. (you can ask any informed banker). So how will he get money for campaign? Who is financing him? 3) Given that he is surrounded by people with negative penchants in financial dealings like jagaban, bukola saraki, amechi et al. Will he have the moral right to prosecute them? Or is he going to prosecute only those in other camps allowing his own crew thieves to continue? 4) Will he allow these governors to finance his campaign with their various state resources? This will imply corruption and stealing already because his personal ambition has nothing to do with state resources?? Will he accept stolen funds 5) What guarantee have we that he not practice selective justice, selective prosecution, selective witch hunting, etc again as he did as head of state?? 6)Buhari is a goodman. but like Amechi of rivers state advised GEJ on an AIT tv program;"this is politics not church". Most likely, Buhari will do to Nigeria what Julius Nyerere(another good; honest and forthright African leader) did to Tanzania. Believe me; this will not help us at all. I need sincere, concise, and unambiguous answers. No long stories plzzzz....thank you |
