Thank you very much Unfortunately I don't have it.

Now can someone with a Stanford pass download the report for Nigerians to see.

BackDatAssUp:


This just goes to show how useless our universities are. If you are in Lagos, the federal archive at Ikoyi should have it unless Buhari forced the librarian at gunpoint to trash it.

Is is amazing the way PDP/TAN tries to rewrite history. Nothing concerns the alleged missing $2.8billion with Buhari. The money was said to have been missing in 1978 when Obasanjo was head of state and Buhari was petroleum minister. Obasanjo set up a commitee to look into the allegations and it reported that no money was missing. Remember Fela's song on the episode, Fela laid the blame squarely on Obasanjo and did not even mention Buhari's name. How do you then link money that was alleged to have gone missing in 1978 to a coup that took place in 1983/84?

Buhari this, Buhari that, why can't this FG campaign on their achievements if there is any? This can't help them, Nigerians are wiser.
Anybody who knows history knows Shagari was dethrone by IBB and Co, since they are arguing on who will be a leader and can't come to a compromise, they invited Buhari from Jos.
Even OBJ have investigated Buhari and found nothing missing.
Compare that with 1.3 Billion scam under GEJ nose just for a year. This guy's should just keep quiet and bury their heads in shame. Nigerians are wiser

WHO IS THIS TOM IKIMI?

ilugunboy:
...and the character assassination continues...

My question is how would all these desperate tactics against GMB help GEJ?

It's more like you are campaigning for GMB..all these attempts at smear campaign is working against GEJ.

The more you do this stuff...the more Nigerians are determined to vote out GEJ....who is finding it difficult to run his campaign on his performance and achievements....like millions of Nigerians...I have my voter's card securely locked for GMB/Osinbajo

Maser:
Tom Ikimi (Abacha's spokesman who sold his conscience to defend the hanging of Saro Wiwa) is on a vengeance mission against APC because a few months ago he contested for the position of APC National Chairman and lost. He then decamped back to PDP. He's out to bring down APC through a campaign of calumny against an upright man. Tom has no political principles, he's a political prostitute more or less. If it doesn't work for him, he brings down the house. Nigerians are gullible and swallow any falsehood being spewed out by these polotical hoodlums.

Wahala90:


Keep dreaming. We can see your sentiments but any sane person worldwide knows that a coupist dictator who cut short democracy, killed innocent Nigerian youth and massively disrespected human rights is not even fit to contest for the presidential seat.

Before 1983 buhari was a military professional he did not involve in politics he was invited to be head of state due to military rank.

General Domkat Bali’s wife thought her husband was having an affair when she noticed that he always came home late, unlike him. When her suspicion became too much, one day he told her that he was not having an affair, but he was always coming back late because they were meeting in Buhari’s house to stage a coup. Buhari was the GOC in Jos at the time, and he told her not to tell anyone.


Q. Let’s go back to the issue of coup, we were on it before we diverted to your stay in prison. Where were we?

In the book I was telling you about, they said Obasanjo told Umaru Shinkafi, that shortly after the election of 1979, some military officers went to him and informed him not to hand over to Shagari. Obasanjo told them that he had already told the world he was going to hand over power, and that he inherited the office, after a coup attempt that was not successful. He stated that his predecessor promised to hand over, and it means he must hand over.

Obasanjo also told them that he has initiated an election process which was successful. Shagari won, people went to court and he won there as well. ‘So on what grounds should I tell the world I would not hand over to him? Who do you even want me to hand over to? And they said, ’hand over to Buhari’!’

So even before power was handed over to Shagari, the military attempted to steal it and hand over to Buhari. So it wasn’t about bribery and corruption or not to hand over to Alex Ekwueme. I am not the first person to say this; the boys who published Shagari’s book said it first. But, I have also relayed it in my book. And I will give you a copy to go and read.
And since his assumption of power by Shagari, there were several attempts to topple him until they eventually succeeded. It was revealed in that book that the military had attempted to stage a coup even before the second election in 1983. They sought the advice of one of their senior officer who had retired, he told them he supported the idea of a coup, but if they did it before the election, Awolowo would say it was because he was billed to win the election, and the Yoruba owns the newspapers and most editors at the time were also Yoruba and so they would give it widespread publicity such that the world would reject the coup.

He advised them to let the election take place first, before they do whatever they want to do.
There was also a revelation in the book that General Domkat Bali’s wife thought her husband was having an affair when she noticed that he always came home late, unlike him. When her suspicion became too much, one day he told her that he was not having an affair, but he was always coming back late because they were meeting in Buhari’s house to stage a coup. Buhari was the GOC in Jos at the time, and he told her not to tell anyone.

Incidentally, Domkat Bali’s wife is related to the wife of Solomon Lar, the then Governor of Plateau State. She realised that a coup would affect her relatives’ husband, and she could not take it, because she feared he could be killed. So, she told Lar’s wife, and Lar’s wife also told her husband.
It happened that Shagari was going to open the school in Kuru. Solomon told Shagari that he had something to tell him, but Shagari advised him to wait until after the event.

After the event, Solomon Lar told Shagari what he was told at the Presidential lodge in Jos, he mentioned Domkat Bali’s wife as the source of the information. Lar said he had wanted to bring up the issue at the meeting of the National Security Committee, but when he realized that he is not the Commander in Chief, he thought it best to wait, since Shagari is also coming to Jos.

Shagari now informed Solomon Lar to go and tell Buhari that this is what he heard, that he was planning a coup. But Lar said I can only do that if you let me inform him that the message came from you. Shagari agreed to that.
So when they met with Buhari while they were seeing off President Shagari, Solomon Lar excused Buhari aside and said he wanted to see him, and would come see him at home. But Buhari said how can you a governor come to my house? Lar insisted that he would go. So he went to Buhari’s house and informed him that it was Shagari that sent him to let him know that there was a rumour going round that they were planning a coup.

Buhari said it was not true, there was nothing like that. He asked Lar to go and assure Shagari that it was not true.
After Lar left, Buhari called Umaru Shinkafi because they were friends and asked him to meet as soon as possible in Kaduna. Umaru Shinkafi informed Shagari and he was given an aircraft to take him to Kaduna. When they met, Buhari told Shinkafi that he was going to retire since the Commander in Chief does not trust him anymore. There was a time, the military authorities wanted Buhari transferred to Abeokuta but people like Umaru Dikko kicked against it because they said bringing someone like Buhari closed to the seat of power is dangerous. That was why Shagari asked that Buhari be transferred to Jos.

He was very angry with that decision because he felt, he was not trusted. So the second incident made him tell Shinkafi that he was going to retire, since no one trusted him anymore. Shinkafi, in his capacity as the Security Adviser to Shagari, informed Buhari that he knew the president trusted Buhari, so he should not think of retiring. He went back and informed Shagari that Buhari said he should not worry; there was no cause for alarm.
That was what prompted Buhari’s group; they realised that the issue had begun to leak, so they had to strike early. But even before this incident, they had also planned to topple the government on the day Shagari was sworn-in for his second term.

In fact Umaru Shinkafi even though did not come out to tell the president that he suspects something was wrong, advised the president to wear a bullet proof vest on his way to the inauguration. Shagari asked him why? I will not wear it. It got to a point Umaru Shinkafi was even shedding tears before Shagari agreed to wear it. In the book, they quoted Babangida as saying they were aware of all this, but Shagari’s people did not know that plans had changed.
Before then, all plans had been perfected and a plane had even been dispatched to Jos to fetch Buhari with instruction to wear his full military regalia, and text of his national speech was already given to him for his inputs before 1st October, 1983. Why they changed their minds, no one knows.

This means that they had planned the coup even before the one Solomon Lar got wind of and informed Shagari. So you see it was never about denying Alex Ekwueme the chance to become president. May be he made his statements out of ignorance or just pure hatred for the north.

Ikimi is either ignorant about the issue or is lying because the Justice Ayo Irikife panel did its work and presented its report which absolved Buhari of any wrong doing. They went to London and interviewed the Manager of the Midland bank and the Manager told them no such account exists in the bank. The Justice Irikife panel did its work, presented its report absolving Buhari of any wrong doing and the government released its white paper based on the findings of the panel.
