Hear what this mumu is saying. Those days, politicians were acting with absolute impunity and wanton looting of public funds was the norm. Umaru Dikko embezzled N4 billion when a brand new Peugeot 504 was being sold for N5000. Kano state governor Sabo Barkin Zuwo had N3 million hidden under his bed. Shagari had the most corrupt politicians under him and hoarding and stifling scarcity of essential commodities was the order of the day. Nigeria and its people have really suffered through all the past and present leaderships. God help us.

Good old BARKIN ZUWO....i love that guy.

1.Back in 1983...when asked on television what minerals Kano state had....'Kano has lots of minerals, Coke, fanta, sprite...'
2.When caught with N10m in his house by the Buhari millitary govt...for which he was jailed...he wept in court like a baby.

Barkin Zuwo....the guy was just put there by late Aminu Kano to deal with late Rimi...who he felt was getting too big for his shoes...

Buhari has single-handedly done more harm to Nigeria and Nigerians than all other Nigerians from amalgamation to date combined.
Nigeria is a tragedy. How can one man be allowed to do this to a country TWICE? TWICE!!. There is a special place in hell for all who participated in imposing this evil on Nigeria.

Even the APC thing mightn't have been so much of an epic fail if not for the one fatal flaw of picking a totally inept, semi-literate, geriatric anti-democratic ethno-religious bigot like Buhari!

It's only in a country like Nigeria that a former Coupist of Buhari's failed status is allowed anywhere near a microphone to address people. His days decades of sitting down in Daura spending ETF and ex-President's earnings did not see him building universities like Atiku, starting positive NGO's like Gowon, delving into farming like Abdulsalam or large scale agrobased businesses like Obasanjo.

What was his relevance, what was his contribution, where was his whenever intellectual or progressive contributions were sought? No, he'd rather sit down in Daura playing Pauper-King amongst the Almajiris and bidding how to use the North's irresponsible seed-breeding advantage to his merit when time came!

Because, everybody knew Tunde Idiagbon was his brain and backbone then, the Lagosian frog-eyed Tinubu felt he could control him, forgetting that FFK who called him a Golem was right! He may play weak but he's plotting and will stab you when he's done with using you and you can see Tinubu was being primed to be rubbished!

He's always been a traitor and a traitor he will forever be so all those trying to sell us bullshyt on his motives might as well drop the act!

Traitor Buhari, he overthrew Shagari and few months later, plunged Nigeria into recession.

Nigeria's economy was last in recession, for less than a year, in 1991, NBS data shows. It also experienced a prolonged recession from 1982 until 1984.

Shagari was no better and Obasanjo did give him protection to rig him into office. The economy was already messed up when Babangida struck.

Didn't you read what Sambo Dasuki said? A group of soldiers overthrew shagari government because of corruption, and looked for the most senior among their ranks and picked Buhari who was the GOC 3 Armoured Division Rukuba Barracks, Jos. It was called Rukuba Barracks then, before being renamed Maxwell Khobe Cantonment.

For those who still do not know the real reason why Buhari overthrew Shagari. The coup was carried out to prevent Dr Ekwueme who was Shagari's vice from becoming president of Nigeria; when Shagari completes his second term. The coup was done early enough in shagari's second term to prevent suspicion of the real agenda.

He always uses the word corruption to inflame and incite the public so he can use them to achieve his selfish desires ...I keep teli g Nigerians that our problem was no the coup of 1966 , our problem was not the civil war , it wasn't Babangida nor Abacha , it all started the day this bitter man called Buhari overthrew Shagari for no reason ...Do you know after the coup he didn't initiate or complete a single project anywhere in Nigeria , do you know after that coup Nigeria Airways stopped seeing passengers because many middle class Nigerians suddenly couldn't afford air tickets , do you know it was after his coup that Nigerians started buying used cars for the first time and it has not stopped till today ...that man is a curse
...And it was during Buhari first term in office as Military Head of State the word "Recession" was commonly used by many Nigerians in 1983. The second time the word recession became more prevalent again was 2016, all under one man called Buhari.

Mister know too much, what was the achievements of buhari, ibb, abacha governments after shagari.

Those were part of the military cabal that overthrew the then president.

It's very easy to look back with nostalgia at the good old days, but the truth is even then Nigerians were complaining about hardship to the high heavens. The politicians of that era were just as lawless and reckless as those we have today. if things were so rosy back then Fela's music wouldn't have been a hit to the common man. You should hear the choice words he had for Shagari's government.

That said, the coup was another mistake. It was a wrong trying to correct another wrong. We should have found democratic solutions to a democratic problem.

LOL,

Are we moving forward or backwards as a country? Nature always provide ample opportunity to do it right over and over, but if its all activity and no productivity, nature brings chaos closer and closer.

Life is kind enough,

The gods are not to blame,

Heaven helps those who help themselves.

If we fail, it means we are eternally doomed to activities but no productivity. How many leadership change will bring progress? How many fight will fetch us friendship? How many fragments will give us unity?

How many political slogan will deliver the promise?

God! I admire the way people write!

There is a reason History was removed from the list of compulsory subjects in our school curriculum. The current generation of Nigerians are not only myopic and ignorant, there is also zero interest in self improvement and learning. This is all public knowledge, but supposedly educated Nigerians still support him. Even now that he is a ghost, they still support him and will vote his cadaver into office if they could. Nigeria will always have the kind of leaders Nigerians deserve. And yes, I have lost all hope in this contraption called Nigeria.
This is short and precise.

History exemption is just for us to be cowed and blinded

That was the Time Nigeria had the biggest airline in Africa and the middle east yet the fool overthrew them, that was the time our Airforce was the most equipped in Africa and the middle east except for Isreal, Egypt and the Persians yet the dullard said Nigeria was not progressing and overthrew them ..
History always replays itself. Most of us do not have this knowledge. How was the economy when Shagari (Jonathan) was in power, what did the economy become when Buhari took over? What was Jonathan(Shagari) accused of and was the main reason(excuse) given for his over throw?

His coup then was an opener to massive woes bedeviling Nigeria. It facilitated the emergence of the likes of Babangida, Shonekan, Abacha and AbdulSalami with their respective corruption, maladministration, nepotism and junta.

You are one of those half-baked people on NL without knowledge of history. Let me school you.

The UK had a coup detat under Cromwell to reset the system. France had military rule under De'Gaulle. Many coups have occured in Spain up till 1975. Despite appearances, the military has a big say in America. Thailand frequently resets the polity with coup detats. South Korea was put on the path of development by a military junta. Ghadaffi was a military ruler; he led Libya to unprecedented development. Rwanda is the fastest growing economy in Africa- Kagame entered power via military action.
Democracy in Nigeria is a sham. If you think what we practice in Nigeria is close to democracy you need therapy.

I will not read or respond to any of your comments anymore.
Goodbye
