No matter how you feel about
Late Mr. President, you must
remember that he is simply a
man like yourself.

He is a father, a husband, a
brother and a friend to someone.

Rest in Peace Yar'adua

Nigerian President Umaru Yar'Adua is dead, a presidential aide has confirmed to the BBC.

A spokesman, who did not want to be named, said Mr Yar'Adua died on Wednesday, although there's been no official announcement yet.

Mr Yar'Adua, who became president in 2007, had been ill for some time, and had not been seen in public for months.

After much wrangling, Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan was accepted as acting president in February.

OgidiBoy:

Kudos to MSNBC for putting Nigerian on their front page. Fox Noise would never do such a thing.




Abeg, leave my favorite network out of this matter.

R.I.P Umaru  . . . . .  
He was a gentle man, although the cabal messed up his records when it dawned on them that Umaru was brain dead.

This has even been confirmed by Wikipedia.  They have already updated their records,

Re: President Umaru Yar'adua Is Dead by OgidiBoy(m): 12:28am On May 06, 2010
Come why are ppl still posting links to the same story, it's already been confirmed by BBC, CNN, MSNBC, and Wikipedia for crying out loud. Is it that they don't believe Metal-gong's source or what ?
Re: President Umaru Yar'adua Is Dead by saiyaman: 12:29am On May 06, 2010
You know all people who lied about him being in stable condition could have had a motive beyond wanting to stay in power. Democracy is still a relatively New thing in Nigeria (by which I mean a peaceful transition from one group to another) maybe it was to keep things from spiraling out of control and sparking another coup. Hell in Regan's final years in office it is speculated that his Alzheimer was emerging (or already affecting his cognitive skills), if word got out the U.S.S.R situation may have gone in a different direction.
Re: President Umaru Yar'adua Is Dead by kaloka(m): 12:29am On May 06, 2010
sad sad
It is quite sad, as it is revealing, that we ascribe the problems of this country to others and never see how we nurture the same problems by our sidon-look mentality (either that or it's "e go better"wink. Our problems will not go away, or get any better, until we begin to see ourselves as stake holders in the destiny of this country and so stand to lose am lot if Nigeria fails, we'll simply be marking time. So what if Umaru is dead (I believe the bugger's been pushing up daisies since before they snuck him back into the country)? He did not create Nigeria's problem and his passing means nothing to me. What would matter to me is that this event serve as a reminder to us all about the transience of life and the need for us to do the best we can with the little time we have to spend here on earth to make the country of our birth a better place for all.

Re: President Umaru Yar'adua Is Dead by bidemi12(m): 12:34am On May 06, 2010
I have said it time and time again, Nigerians suffer from mass amnesia. was this not the same nairalanders who rightly recognized his failures and spoke vehemently about his greed knowing fully well that he was sick and could not perform but still went ahead for sake of power? was this not the same man who sat in a round table and negotiated the way and manner the people of Nigeria would be taken for a very bumpy ride? I beg make una stop all this oohing and aaahing. Una too de forget. And metalgong, YOU DE FEAR ME OOOOOO
Re: President Umaru Yar'adua Is Dead by Gentlebabs(m): 12:36am On May 06, 2010
Adieu! Umoru Musa Ya'Adua, You have crossed to the great divide, where the grass is always greener and water always purer. You did your best and left the rest. Death ends all the hassles of life. Indeed1 vanity upon vanity is vanity, Sun re o!

Re: President Umaru Yar'adua Is Dead by Onlytruth(m): 12:39am On May 06, 2010
He was a gentle man who came across as having a good heart. The cabal didn't allow us to know the real Umaru though. undecided

Somehow though, he had more presidential swagger than Jonathan (though Jonathan can always improve), was

definitely more respectable in appearance than the "Inoki" (gorilla) from Ota. I was not ashamed anytime he appeared

on international TV with other leaders (except when he started loosing weight fast).

Overall, he was a decent fellow. Could have still been alive if not for the demands of office.

May his soul rest in peace. cool

I beg dont bring ridiculous twists here. If Abacha was alive would you not wish him dead? If your child was hacked to death like the one's in Jos would you not wish the attackers dead. I beg contribute logic here.
