How True Is The Allegation Against Buhari’s Wife? by Holywizard: 8:03am On Jun 07, 2016 |
In this piece, Philip Agbese refutes claims that the wife of the President, Aisha Buhari brokered a deal with the election tribunal over the petition filed in by a member of the House of Representative, James Faleke against All Progressives Congress nomination of Yahaya Bello as gubernatorial replacement for late Abubakar Audu. It is not the best of times to be from Kogi state. Kogi, like dozens of other states in Nigeria are in the throes of an economic meltdown that has shown no signs of abating. Coupled with successive years of misrule by previous administrations, the current governor, Mr Yahaya Bello, like many of his colleagues has not been able to pay salaries so the hunger in that state is understandable. This has not been helped in anyway by the fact that the unexpected development that threw up Bello as the incumbent governor also caused massive dislocation in the “settlement system” that had ensured government handouts trickle down through cronies to street urchins, and arrangement that had ensured hangers on are well fed in a state that is only now trying to have the semblance of an economy. Yahaya Bello’s emergence was hotly contested before the Kogi state Election Petition Tribunal upheld his election. The desperation of those who lost out under the current configuration in the state is therefore understandable in view of the biting economic reality, not just in that state or in Nigeria but also worldwide. One can stretch one’s tolerance to understand that hallucination is a possibility with intense hunger but in this case seeing and hearing things that are not there should be limited to images of food and phantom aromas. The hallucination should not extend beyond things that pertain to the state lest it be interpreted as madness. Claims by some groups, obviously sponsored, that the wife of the President, Mrs Aisha Buhari brokered a deal worth the whole of N1.5 billion in bribes to the judges on the Kogi state Election Petition Tribunal to give a favourable ruling has therefore gone beyond the realm of hallucination to become something else. Those behind the allegations and their mouth pieces that delivered the message must have succumbed to hunger on an unprecedented scale to conjure up images of what never was and can never be. They even claimed that the supposed bribe paid to the judges was the cause of the salaries being owed workers from the time of the immediate past administration. Mrs Aisha Buhari happens not to be an indigene of Kogi state. To the best of my knowledge, she has stayed out of the politics of that state and I even commended her for maintaining neutrality at the height of the intense politics that produced the incumbent governor. This gives me a sense that those who floated that story have more than the politics of Kogi state at heart and her possibly bitter to the point of attempting to torpedo her blissful marriage to our number one citizen. What they stand to gain from that is yet to be seen. Secondly, the story of the N1.5 billion equally aimed for the judiciary, which could offer a clue that there is a calculated attempt to discredit this arm of government as the war on graft picks pace. We have repeatedly seen how suspects charged with corruption often delay their trial and possible conviction by praying judges to recluse themselves from cases on the strength of trumped up accusations like this. https://www.naij.com/851940-true-allegation-buharis-wife.html?source=index_main Oga Seun, Moderators, food don land |

Holywizard: Holywizard!! I rarely comment on this platform, but i wont be doing justice to my conscience if i fail to comment on this your topic. Infact, your write-up has proven to me that PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY BEEN PAID to cover some people's ass using every available media platform. I will not talk further, but I can bet you that I AM VERY FAMILIAR with Kogi politics and we all know the role Mrs. Buhari played to ensure the emergence of Yahaya Bello, and the games she is still playing up till this moment am pressing the key board. Everybody shall be rewarded according to his or her deed, if not here on earth, then certainly in heaven. 2 Likes |

Holywizard: Well, I always reserve my comment on issues i can't defend, therefore, I can't attest to what kill the late APC flag bearer. let's us all bear in mind that it's only the supreme being (God) that can judge. hence my earlier assertion that Everybody shall be rewarded according to his or her deed, if not here on earth, then certainly in heaven.
