President Yat'adua is fast being constituted into a symbol of Nigeria's racism and tribalism.

Why is it ok for Yar'adua to meet Imams but not the cabinet?
I think now that they are claiming he is well enough to shake hands and recognise his environment then please lets have a cabinet meeting by Yar'adua's bed-side.

If he is recuperating, then the Cabinet meeting will mean a solidarity get well soon visit.
If he is dead, he can be given a State Burial
If he is incapacitated but alive, he should be declared so and removed from office but given the quality of healthcare available to a head of state in any country where they can treat him best.

This business of keeping the President in hiding and making malicious reports in his name must stop. One moment it is his cousin claiming to Al-Jazeera that he has seen Yar'adua, the next moment it is Imams claiming to have seen him.
All these news designed to feed a section of the country and possibly insiting them to take up arms if the constitution of Nigeria is implemented.

Now that they are claiming that he is well enough to meet Imams, Business men. Then it should follow that he is also capable to meet the Cabinet.

If Jonathan can not mobilise and arrange for this then he simply can not protect this country from harm. Are we saying that if Turai Yar'adua constitutes her self as a terrorist tomorrow and acquires a Nuclear Bomb to blow up this country it will be ok for Jonathan to seat and watch.

These malicious propagandas about who saw Yar'adua and who did not see him is threatening the security of our country and calls for the need to put Turai and the Yar'adua issue in their place.

If it was Jonathan Sick and holding the country hostage I will still be making this call.
