Go Selfless! Must it be BB come 2015? Let him go selfless and support a vibrant up coming Northerner. Non of they lives lost post election violence are worth any politician's goal whatsoever. Evil is evil, Religion/Religious crisis and fanaticism in Naija are worst evil than said corruption. Corruption are in ugly faces of social, economic, and religious.

GENERAL BUHARI VISITS YOLA AFTER QUENCHING RELIGIOUS RIOTING THAT LEFT DOZENS DEAD.[/size]
Nigeria's military ruler, Major-General Mohamed Buhari, visited the northeastern Nigerian city of Yola - in Gongola state - February 29 to assess the extent of damage caused by violent communal rioting two days earlier.

The known death toll from the religious disturbances is nearly 140, with at least another 60 persons injured, some critically. Gongola's acting state governor, Colonel Cyril Iweze, blamed the turmoil on fanatical followers of Moslem fundamentalist Muhammadu Marwa Maitatsine's religious sect. Marwa himself was killed in vicious rioting three years ago, when an estimated 4,000 people died.

In disturbances on February 27, the army was eventually called in to quell resistance from thousands of religious fanatics, at least 715 of whom were arrested by security forces.

General Buhari visited the Yola Specialist Hospital during his one-day tour of the gutted city, and also met with the Lamido of Adamawa, Alhaji Mustapha Aliyu, to discuss the situation.

Nineteen military governors were formally appointed by the new Head of State, Major-General Mohammed Buhari, and other members of the country's Supreme Military Council (SMC) in Lagos on January 4 to run Nigeria's federal states.

General Buhari attended the official swearing-in ceremony, which came four days after he led a bloodless coup ousting former President Shehu Shagari.

Speaking at the ceremony, Buhari reminded his new governors of their duties.All were chosen, he said, for their ability to discharge their responsibilities in the best interests of the country.He went on to warn them that crime and corruption for personal gain, one reason for the coup, would be ruthlessly punished.

General Buhari added the corruption and hoarding in the private sector would not be tolerated.He ended his speech by telling the assembled governors they were answerable to the country's military chiefs of staff and subject to redeployment at any time.

All former state governors have been given a week to report to police.

General Buhari has pledged to revive the country's economy and also to end the armed robberies in major cities that have become commonplace in the last few years.The fate of former top officials in the Shagari administration is still to be decided by the new military government, and Shagari himself is being held in custody.

A rare gem
Incorruptible leader
corruption fighter.

On a serious note, all the negative comments seem to be from a few disgruntled people and more genuine statements from the 'average joe'
This just tells you something. Compare this thread to the ''describe GEJ in 2 words thread'' and you'll understand what i mean.
Right thinking people know the truth.
GEJ's butt-lickers can bury their heads in the sand and pretend the real world does not exist. People are getting wiser.

I wonder why a few don't see that our ex-head of state is old enough to pave way for the youths. Thinking that he's the only one that can move Nigeria forward among you youths is just a high level of narrowed short sightedness and unprogressive thoughts of a few Nigerian youths. Haba! Only in Africa leaders would rather spend their entire life, and prefer to die in govt power. Can't they simply emulate Nelson Mandela's selfless virtues.
Re: Describe Buhari In Two Words by maasoap(m): 9:36pm On Oct 19, 2011
What I've seen so far has proved that in terms of individual popularity, Nigerians still prefer and respect Buhari more than GEJ. We were asked to describe GEJ in two words and everybody (muslims, christians, northerners and southerners) united to condem him. And I'm sure you all still remember the only one person that described GEJ positively. The people that describe Buhari negatively do so using religious sentiments but not facts. Ex-president, Ex-PTF chairman, Ex-NNPC boss, Ex-minister with no foreign account till date, no petrol station, no oil bloc, no self awarded contract. This man is simply a great man with unparallel discipline.

One Nigeria ought to be in true oneness of love and brother hood without shading innocent(the unborn children and pregnant women) blood of fellow human. So touchy if u ever lost ur wife, son, daughter, mother, or father, or any relative in the post election violences: THEIR BLOOD CRY AS WE DISCUSS. Providence is never asleep, but men may tend to wonder. We must let go every sentiments and interests that enshrine chaos. Love your neighbor as yourself. The Universal Golden Rule! We need it more than any other thing.
There's hope for Nigeria!

BUHARI’S GOVERNMENT LAUNCHES “WAR AGAINST INDISCIPLINE”[/size]

Nigeria's military government is stepping-up its campaign against corruption, mismanagement and indiscipline at all levels in Nigeria society.

Preliminary hearings into corruption and abuse of office against former politicians and civil administrators have already begun and on March 21 the government launched its war against indiscipline.

One of the first areas under attack is Illegal Street trading in the capital Lagos. The military government of Major-General Buhari has promulgated a decree forbidding the street trading, a major source of income for many thousands of Lagos people. Police have already begun arresting street vendors and confiscating their wares.

The campaign is also designed to foster greater personal and social discipline with Nigerians being urged to queue for buses in an orderly fashion. The crackdown on indiscipline was announced by Brigadier Tunde Idiagbon, a member of the Nigerian Supreme Military Council.

BRIGADIER TUNDE IDIAGBON: "I want you to bear in mind the need to emphasise self-discipline and leadership by good example.
Begin by drawing public attention to little but important everyday manifestations of indiscipline such as rushing into buses, driving on the wrong side of the road, littering the streets, parks and dwelling compounds, cheating, taking undue advantage of scarcity to inflate prices for quick monetary gains, constituting ourselves into public nuisances, walking without commitment and devoting little or no time to the upbringing of our children.

Up to this moment there has been no formal declaration of war against indiscipline, it is my pleasure therefore to declare today a launching day for the war against indiscipline."

BUHARI'S MILITARY TRIBUNAL MEMBERS SWORN IN TO PROSECUTE 500 DETAINED POLITICIANS, OFFICIALS AND OTHERS CHARGED WITH FINANCIAL FRAUD[/size]
The swearing-in took place in Lagos on April 11 of members of Nigeria's special military tribunals which will try 475 detainees charged with financial misdemeanour.

The military government, in power since a coup on December 31, 1983, arrested public officials and businessmen accused of diverting millions of dollars of public money under the previous civilian regime.
The tribunal members, 20 military officers and five judges, were sworn in by Chief Justice Sodiende Sowemimo, and will begin their work around the end of April in five regional centres.

When Major-General Mohammed Buhari came to power in the New Year's Eve coup, he promised a crackdown on public corruption as one way of solving Nigeria's economic crisis.

In February, 1984, his government launched a "War against Indiscipline" to encourage a more efficient society. More recently, security forces in Lagos rounded up 6,000 suspected criminals, political extremists and illegal aliens.

A drive is currently in progress to force down food prices through raids on shopkeepers and others suspected of hoarding food.

TRANSCRIPT:
NAVAL OFFICER: (SEQ 5) "I (name indistinct), affirm that as member of the special military tribunal in (indistinct) set up under the recovery of public property (special military tribunals) decree 1984 and 1984 Number 3, I will faithfully and impartially, and to the best of my ability discharge the duties devolving upon me under the tribunal, so help me God."

4,000 people dead in a past religious crisis. God have mercy! A word of love and posterity driven from any of our religious and political leaders mouth could have quenched such evil on humanity and to our creator before the deed is done. Our leaders are well respected by their words and great influence. You can not love divinity without loving ur next neighbor irrespective of religion and ethnicity.
