How do u expect vegetable that barely walk on its own without external support to attend a burial ceremony where there will be crowds? He know Nigerians will attack him and throw him stones and satchet water so he have to respect himself.

They can't be everywhere, they are top government officials who work with schedules. Like I always say, we are too emotional in this country.

What difference will their presence have made, what we should worry about is the aftermath, will the government kick their families out of the residence by next month or will there be provision for their wives and children.

May the lord comfort the families of the departed.

The fact that you could even make up excuse for this shows the kind of character you are ....so what schedule does Buhari have ?

He doesn't do press briefings

He doesn't visits states

He doesn't visit locations of tragedy

He doesnt even visit his office and claims to work from home


Please tell me one of the schedule he has that kept him away ffrom this funeral

Just to be clear. Jonathan was absent at Yar'adua's burial. Absulsalam was absent at Abacha's burial. All these burials all have one thing in common, they happened in less than 24 hours. Too short a time for the DSS to plan their itinerary. Being a President is not child's play. Buhari has been a target for assassination even as far back as 2014 in Kaduna when his convoy was attacked. The risk is higher now than then.
Did the cabal accept that Yardua was dead? Jonathan was kept incommunicado by the ASO Rock cabal..

Abacha died on 8 June 1998 and Abdulsalam became head of state on 9 June 1998...Abdulsalam had barely taken over when Abacha was buried. So, he couldnt have been there.

What security clearance nonsense of 48 hours?

Buhari has failed woefully in leadership and there is no excuse for cover-up.

In the US, soldiers who die at the battlefront, the president attends their burial at Arlington.
Think about that.

I see a lot of times people ask Nigerians to be patriotic and support the armed forces in the fight against insurgency even with their abysmal human rights record against same Nigerians.
The least patriotic act the president can show is to physically pay the last respect to his chief army officer who died in active duty.
That's in the US.We all knw the type of Old man we have here.Pray he finish his tenure and retire to his Daura in peace

The nation is mourning but some children of ha*te needs their brains to be corrected and few questions begging for answers...

Why was GEJ as Ag. President not present at the burial of late President Yaradau, his immediate Boss?

Why did Pres. Buhari not attend the funeral of his late best friend and Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari who was buried in Abuja too?

Why was Pres. Buhari not at the burial of Isa Funtua?

Should the Vice President attend if he was not delegated by the President? Mind you, presidency is a single body led by the President himself.

It is simple, these men were buried immediately according to Islamic tradition and for the President of Nigeria to be at any ceremony, there must have been at least 48hrs security report/update or he sends delegate, which Mr. President did by sending his Minister for defence.

May soul of our gallant men rest in peace. If you cannot atleast respect their memory, don't be unfortunate to play politics with their burial.

Just listen to yourself, they can't be everywhere but they can be at a wedding shining their teeth to the camera while the nation mourns someone who died on official trip and working to combat the terrorist terrorizing their states...even more worrisome is the 'jollyment' on the face of the governors of Zamfara and Yobe state...two states ravaged by insecurity.

Ask yourself, Will the wedding fail to hold if those governors don't attend on the ground that they decide to mourn a top military chief who lost his life or 'assasinated' in a plane crash?

Lots of senseless people on this forum.

Boden and Buhari are agemates. If Buhari feels he's no longer fit for the job, he should resign.
Why should I pray he finishes his tenure and retires in peace? What benefit does that bring to me?
There's wisdom in the saying after all, that a people get the kind of leaders they deserve.

The President, for reason best known to him, decided who represented him at the event. He delegated the Defence Minister in this case. If he had wanted the VP to represent him there, he would have delegated him to.
In the absence of such delegation, the VP had no business going there ahead of his boss, regardless of whether all other State Governors were there.

Where did you get this simply untrue statement from?
In that same Abuja in 2006, OBJ left his office and came to Wuse where a demolition was about to take place.
OBJ visited different markets impromptu as President.
When did that rule come into effect?
Care to share the source?

Jonathan was already acting President before Yar'adua died. Why was Buhari absent at his Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari's burial? Why was he absent at his bosom friend, Isa Funtua's burial?

Hint: It wasn't because of Covid 19. Show me an islamic burial happening in less than 24 hours where Buhari has attended. Buhari attended Yar'adua's burial by the way. The difference is that he wasn't President as at then. You can pontificate all you want, but we all saw what happened to Idris Deby in Chad. Buhari's itinerary does not lie in his hands. It is protocol.
