interview with the Sun Newspapers, General Muhammadu Buhari, who hardly lets his emotions get the better of him, bares it all like never before.

The former President, who has been trying to get back into Aso Rock, talks about IBB, Olusegun Obasanjo, the 1966 coup, his late daughter and 2015.

Here’s the full transcript:



What kind of childhood did you have?

Well, from my father’s side, we are Fulanis. You know the Fulanis are really divided into two. There are nomads, the ones that if you drive from Maiduguri and many parts of the North you will find. They are even in parts of Delta now. And there are those who settled. They are cousins and the same people actually. From my mother’s side and on her father’s side, we are Kanuris from Kukawa.


Where’s Kukawa?

Kukawa is in Borno State. We are Kanuris. On her mother’s side, we are Hausas. So, you can see I am Hausa, Fulani, Kanuri combined (he laughs). I am the 23rd child of my father. Twenty-third and the 13th on my mother side. There are only two of us remaining now; my sister and I. I went to school, primary school, in Daura and Kaduna, also a primary school, in Kachia. I also attended Kaduna Provincial Secondary School, now Government College. I didn’t work for a day. I joined the military in 1962.


You mean as a boy soldier?

No, after school certificate. There was an officer cadet school from here in Kaduna, called Nigeria Military Training College then. In April 1962, I went to the United Kingdom (UK), Mons Officers Cadet School.

You mean the famous Mons Officers…?

Yes. And when I was commissioned, I came back and I was posted to 2nd Infantry Battalion in Abeokuta. That was my first posting. The battalion was in the Democratic Republic of Congo. I went there. When I came back from there, I was first in Lagos, as Transport Officer. That was where I was till the January coup. I was posted back to my battalion and we were posted to Kaduna here. And then, there was a counter coup, civil war, coup and counter-coup. We participated. I too was overthrown and detained for more than three years. And having had that major political setback when I was made a head of state and then, ended up in detention, I went out and eventually, I decided to join party politics, participated three times and lost as presidential candidate and I am still in and fighting.


You have never given up?

Even though I said at some stage that I wouldn’t present myself for candidature again, I said I remain in party politics as long as I have breath in me.

Your Excellency, why did you join the Army?

The interest was built while I was in secondary school. The emirs of Katsina, from Dikko, were known to be interested in the military. They always have members of the military or police in their family right from World War 11. One of the emirs of Kaduna-Dikko died in Burma. And of course, everybody in the country knows General Hassan, the son of the Emir of Katsina. He was grandson of Emir Dukko. So, when General Hassan was in Sandhurst, we were in secondary school in Kaduna. His father, the Emir of Katsina, Usman Nagogo, used to ask him to go and talk to the senior students who were in form four to six, to get them interested in the military. And we were told that he deliberately wanted a military cadet unit in Kaduna Secondary School. Then, it was limited to Federal Government Colleges or Government Colleges and we had a military cadet unit, which I joined.

You lied to us

He never promised anything. People like you lied for him and made up quotes

And the President is shocked

AM NOT SURPRISED...

He cannot forgive and forget...

REMEMBER DASUKI?

If you know, you know .

Look how easier it was in their own time to join the military... But now they made everything difficult for this present generation.

If you are still supporting PDP or APC, you are on your own because both are the cause of the present situation on ground.

Wishing all genuinely hustlers out there a wonderful and successful day ahead.

He went to Mons April 1962, joined NMTC earlier.
So he must have gotten his GCE/WASC in May/June 1961?

Who your forgiveness help and how he take affect us

Ikengawo:

Sarrki why are you on the upbeat these days? Perhaps your zombiesm have started again or because the chances are getting slimmer for your Burdillion bullion vans demigod? Thought you said Bubu went to US army war college qualifies him as a competent ruler? So why all these your rantings?

Meanwhile all these lamentations simply proved that Mr president is truly a dull incompetent man with no mind of his own. OBJ & IBB have their shortcomings but they faced them courageously & not lamenting their fate like this.Big boys dont cry.Buhari is a thorough disgrace to all Maj.Generals

False! He got enlisted into the army based on the prevailing defective quota system back then.See the qualification wherein he entered the army:

He was a staunch supporter by proxy.
Seem he has seen the handwriting on the wall that his master tinubu might end up not being the president,he and his fellow praise singers are now twisting their mouths.

At a point he couldn't hid it again and was vigorously campaigning for tinubu.

If tomorrow, we see tinubu and Buhari together,he will change tone again.

I tell u bro. Buhari has scammed him and his bullion van Master, because no more 2023 for the Lagos Tax Master. Sources in APC say that, Buhari will rather support Osinbajo for 2023.

Sarrki is in very severe pains, that's the reason for this post.
