Remember Mamman Vatsa? Remember the Abacha fake coup plotters who were on their way to being shot to death until providence slammed itself on OBJ and seeing him become President again, were coup plotters not such despicable elements in the Military and in the Nigerian society?

Why is Buhari, an ex coup plotter, who truncated our democracy, why is he being "celebrated" by some agnoistic and verbose looking yankees of no good repute? Why is he not consigned to prison just like a normal coup plotter?

Just the way another coup plotter in the name of OBJ was allowed to rule for 8yrs.

BTW theres no provision in the constitution that prohibits Buhari from contesting

@dayo,
but there is provision in our conscience that doesnt allow us to vote for a man who scuttled democratically elected government and contributed immensly to all the problems he is promising to solve.

Point us to where they are in the constitution and how it didnt apply to another coup plotter called General olusegun Obasanjo

This is the best question ever cool
People wonder why Nigeria is retrogressing instead of progressing like other nations.
Where else in this World would a former military dictator honestly attempt a brazen come-back after 30 years of non-repentance, no explanation, and mostly a messianic attitude
---and you have people supporting him simply because he's not the current president, because he's from their ethnic or religious group, or because he "promises" to fight for whatever ailes our country. angry

Why does Goodluck Jonathan pal around with coup plotters like Obasanjo. Why does he say that a coup plotter is like a father to him (Babangida)? Show me your friends,

In a civilized nation he would have been thrown in jail.

When you can't measure up, you simply start comparing apples to oranges.
Who did OBJ overthrow in his coup? If you can't name the person, maybe you'll understand your own fallcy.
If you lived in Nigeria for the past 30-40 years and you're not influenced by coupists like IBB or Buhari maybe you're living under a rock.

Never heard b4 obj truncated democracy. Wasnt it him dat instituted the democratic process that buhari destroyed.
If he removed a military government to accomplish that, then credit should go to him.
Can you say same for ayatolla buhari who sacked a democratically elected government because his sins in OBJ's military administration are about to be exposed.

On the contrary, Obasanjo gave us a good shot at democracy and it was Buhari that destroyed his efforts. Read the history books.


This is from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olusegun_Obasanjo

Obasanjo pledged to continue the programme for the restoration of civilian government in 1979 and to carry forward the reform programme to improve the quality of public service.

The second republican constitution, which was adopted in 1979, was modelled on the Constitution of the United States, with provision for a President, Senate, and House of Representatives. The country was now ready for local elections, to be followed by national elections, that would return Nigeria to civilian rule.
