Nairaland GeneralA Battle Plan Was Composed To Islamise Africa... by Akpan107(op): 4:00pm On Oct 27, 2014
Abuja Declaration is the outcome of a
conference of the African countries of
the OIC in 1989 and launched by a
communiqué of the Islam in Africa
Organisation (IAO) founded during this conference. The Islam in Africa Organisation (IAO)
is a Nigerian statuted Islamic
organisation, an initiative of the
Organisation of the Islamic
Conference (OIC). Dr. Usman Muhamad
Bugaje is the current Secretary- General of the IAO. Goals and strategies: The organisation
was founded on 28 November 1989 in
Abuja , Nigeria, with the goal to win
the whole of Africa for Islam. The
statutes and goals are ratified in 1991
and this marks her formal definitive founding. The founding-communiqué
is also called the Abuja Declaration . Starting point for the conference is
the fact that Africa is the only
continent with an Islamic majority and
therefore Africa should become
completely Islamic. The plan contains
a lot of points that are also common for Christian missionary organisations
as relief and economic progression. A battle plan was composed to
Islamise Africa with some less
innocent points in that decision: “To ensure only Muslims are elected to
all political posts of member nations”.
“To eradicate in all its forms and
ramifications all non-Muslim religions
in member nations (such religions
shall include Christianity, Ahmadiyya and other tribal modes of worship
unacceptable to Muslim).” (the word
Christianity is underlined in the
declaration) “To ensure the ultimate
replacement of all western forms of
legal and judicial systems with the sharia in all member nations before
then next “Islam in Africa
conference.” “To ensure the
appointment of only Muslims into
strategic national and international
posts of member nations.” The execution of this strategy can be
recognised in countries like Nigeria ,
Ethiopia and Sudan . In Nigeria more
and more provinces choose for the
Sharia leading to heavy protests of
Christians, oft resulting in violence and bloodshed to both sides. In Sudan the
government chose in 1983 for the
Sharia, in 1991 sharpened with death
punishment for apostasy from Islam. Funds: The government of Nigeria has
donated 21 billion US-dollar conform
an IAO-communiqué as donation to
this “Islamic Development Fund”.
Organisation:[/b The IAO consists of
four main organisations: the General Shura’, the highest authority
consisting of 43 members from all
over Africa and the Diaspora. the
Executive Comité. [b] the Secretariat
housed at Abuja, (Nigeria)./b] the
Necessary organs to the realisation of the goals. [b] Countries: The organisation
mentions the following countries on
its website: Algeria Benin Chad Egypt Ethiopia
Eritrea Kenya Liberia Libya Mali
Mauritania Marokko Niger

Buhari also have this to say....
Muhammadu Buhari, former head of state, says he is keeping an open mind about the possibility of picking a Muslim as his running mate if he gets the presidential nomination of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The issue of Muslim-Muslim
ticket is seen as a potential
setback for the APC in the
election because of the
increasingly political nature of
religion in recent years. Buhari, in particular, is perceived
as an extremist and his likely
combination with another
Muslim for the presidential
election is considered in some
quarters as too sensitive. But in an interview with
TheCable, Buhari, a retired
major-general, said he had
demonstrated to Nigerians that
he is not a fundamentalist and
“there is nothing more I can do”. He said: “Nigerians will always
uncover impossible room for
manoeuvre for politicians. I had
to face one of the governors
during one of our party’s
meetings [over the issue of religion]. “In 2003, I chose Chuba
Okadigbo as my running mate.
He was a Roman Catholic. He
was an Igbo. In 2007, I picked
Edwin Ume-Ezeoke. He was a
Roman Catholic. He was an Igbo. And in 2010, I chose even a
pastor. Pastor Tunde Bakare. “Honestly, what do Nigerians
want me to do? If they don’t
believe I’m not a
fundamentalist, what else can I
do?” He likened his situation to that
of Moshood Abiola, a southern
Muslim, who picked Babagana
Kingibe, a northern Muslim, as
running mate in the 1993
presidential election. The Muslim-Muslim ticket went
on to win an election that is still
considered by many as the most
credible in Nigeria’s history. “I have not absolutely closed my
mind to picking a Christian or
Muslim as running mate if I get
the ticket. Because I firmly
believe that Nigerians, having
gone through what they have gone through, realise it is not a
matter of religion, but a matter
of Nigeria. “And the main religions,
Christianity and Islam, they
know and they believe in the
almighty God. The question of
stealing and short-changing
people in the name of religion should stop,” he said. He made reference to the 1961
northern house of assembly
election, when Ibrahim Imam, a
Kanuri Muslim from Borno, won
an election to represent Tivland,
a Catholic domain in the middle belt, after being sponsored by
Joseph Tarka, the leading Tiv
politician then. “This new phenomenon of
religion is another blackmail
political confusionists in Nigeria
are bringing to the fore,” he
said. He also said religion cannot be
an issue if he wins APC’s ticket
and goes ahead to win the
presidential election, because of
the background of many political
leaders from the south-west. The wives of Bola Tinubu, APC
national leader; Oyo governor,
Abiola Ajimobi; Lagos governor,
Babatunde Fashola; Ogun
governor, Ibikunle Amosun; and
former APC interim chairman, Bisi Akande, are all Christians,
Buhari pointed out. “For goodness sake, the children
of these political leaders were
bred and brought up by Christian
mothers. You think those
people, wherever they
participate, they will bring a religious issue? What kind of
people are we? Nigerians will
always bring something to cause
confusion while we are trying to
stabilise the system,” he said. Fashola, a Muslim, is one of
those touted to be his running
mate, although TheCable also
reported recently that former
attorney-general of Lagos, Yemi
Osinbajo, a professor of law and a pastor in the Redeemed
Christian Church of God, is being
considered as well. Rotimi Amaechi, governor of
Rivers state, is also on the cards.

Muslim-muslim, Christian-christian
ticket dangerous -Obasanjo OCTOBER 26, 2014 BY SAMUEL
AWOYINFA, ABEOKUTA 11 Comments Former president, Olusegun Obasanjo,
has said it is dangerous for any party or a
politician to toy with the idea of fielding
either a muslim-muslim or christian-
christian ticket, given the current
happenings in the polity. He said this on Sunday, in a statement
issued in Abeokuta, Ogun State, a copy of
which was made available to our
correspondent. He called for sensitivity and vigilance on
the part of the leadership. He said, “It will be insensitive to the
point of absurdity for any leader or
any political party to be toying with
Muslim- muslim or Christian-christian
ticket at this juncture. “Nigeria cannot at this stage raise the
spectre and fear of Islamisation or
Christianisation. “The idea of proselytisation in any form
is a grave danger that must not be
contemplated by any serious-minded
politician at this delicate situation in
Nigeria, as this time is different from any
other time.” According to him, sensitivity is a
necessary ingredient for enhancement of
peace, security and stability at this point
in the political discourse
and arrangement for Nigeria and for
encouraging confidence and trust. He explained that disregarding the fact
that there were fears that needed to
be allayed at this point would amount
not only to insensitivity of the highest
order but would also amount to very bad
politics indeed.

Nairaland GeneralIran Has Killed A Woman Who Killed A Man She Said Trid To Assaul Her. by Akpan107(op): 12:11pm On Oct 25, 2014
Iran has gone ahead with an execution
of a woman despite an international
campaign urging a reprieve. Reyhaneh Jabbari, 26, was hanged in a
Tehran prison on Saturday morning. She
had been convicted of killing a man she
said was trying to sexually abuse her. Jabbari was arrested in 2007 for the
murder of Morteza Abdolali Sarbandi, a
former intelligence ministry worker. Human rights group Amnesty
International said her execution was
"deeply disappointing in the extreme". A campaign calling for a halt to the
execution was launched on Facebook and
Twitter last month and appeared to have
brought a temporary stay in execution. However, government news agency
Tasnim said on Saturday that Jabbari had
been executed after her relatives failed
to gain consent from the victim's family
for a reprieve. It said her claims of self-defence had not
been proved in court. A Facebook page set up to campaign for a stay now says simply: "Rest in peace". 'True intentions' Jabbari's mother, Shole Pakravan,
confirmed the execution in an interview
with BBC Persian, saying she was going
to the cemetery to see her daughter's
body. Execution room in Virginia, United
States Global executions for 2013 China: 1,000+ Iran: 369+ Iraq: 169+ Saudi Arabia: 79+ United States: 39 Somalia: 34+ Sudan: 21+ Yemen: 13+ Japan: 8 Others: 42+ (in 12 countries) Source: Amnesty International Rise in number of global executions Ms Pakravan had been allowed to see her
daughter for an hour on Friday. After her arrest, Jabbari had been placed
in solitary confinement for two months,
where she reportedly did not have access
to a lawyer or her family. She was sentenced to death by a criminal
court in Tehran in 2009. Amnesty International said she was
convicted after a deeply flawed
investigation. Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui, Amnesty's Deputy
Director for the Middle East and North
Africa Programme said: "This is another
bloody stain on Iran's human rights
record." "Tragically, this case is far from
uncommon. Once again Iran has insisted
on applying the death penalty despite
serious concerns over the fairness of the
trial." Amnesty said that although Jabbari
admitted to stabbing Abdolali Sarbandi
once in the back, she alleged that there
was someone else in the house who
actually killed him. Jalal Sarbandi, the victim's eldest son,
said Jabbari had refused to identify the
man. He told Iranian media in April: "Only
when her true intentions are exposed
and she tells the truth about her
accomplice and what really went down
will we be prepared to grant mercy," The United Nations says Iran has
executed about 250 people this year.
Nairaland GeneralMob Set Lecturer Ablaze For Killing Five Pupils In Auto Crash by Akpan107(op): 6:04pm On Oct 24, 2014
Jalingo – Alhaji Kassimu Umar, a Lecturer
at the Taraba College of Education (COE)
Zing, was on Friday burnt to death in a
mob action after he allegedly hit and
killed five primary school pupils with a
vehicle he was driving. Mr Joseph Kwaji, the Police Public
Relations officer (PPRO), of the Taraba
Police Command confirmed the incident
in Jalingo. He said that the mob forcefully removed
Umar from the Pupule Police Outpost,
where he went to report the incident, and
the mob burnt him to death. “In the early hours of today, one Kassimu
Umar, who is believed to be a lecturer
with COE, Zing had knocked down five
primary school pupils in Zing, who all died
on the spot. “After he reported the incident to the
Pupule Police Outstation, irate youths in
their hundreds, stormed the station,
dragged him out and lynched him. “Our investigation revealed that the
lecturer was trying to dodge a trailer,
when he ran over the pupils whose ages
ranged between eight and 11 years,” he
said. Kwaji said that the matter was under
investigation, adding that no arrest had
so far been made. (NAN)

PoliticsAn Islamic Scholar, Sheik Gumi Has Asked Buhari Not To Contest 2015 Against GEJ by Akpan107(op): 1:06pm On Oct 23, 2014
Popular Islamic scholar, Dr. Ahmad
Gumi, son of late famous Sheik Abubakar Gumi this morning wrote
General Muhammadu Buhari an open
letter asking him not to contest the 2015
presidential election against President
Goodluck Jonathan in view of its severe
implications. Sheik Ahmad Gumi Gumi’s public letter to Buhari was
following reaction that trailed his piece ‘The Second Round Of Goodluck Vs Buhari:
A Source Of Apprehension’ published by this medium on 18th October, 2014.
Several supporters of Buhari have
criticised Gumi over his letter accusing
him of jealousy and hatred for Buhari. The cleric, who insisted that he will not
shy away from speaking the truth,
cautioned Buhari to be conscious of those
surrounding him for political gain. Sections of the letter read as follows: I know I have access to your privy but
this is meant for others to learn also. The prophet -peace be upon him-
told one of the most honest and
truthful of his companions Abu Zar
Algafary: "oh Abu Zar, I truly love for
you what I love for myself. I indeed
see that you are weak so never accept to lead even two people and
never accept safekeeping of the
orphans wealth' An honest and candid advice from
the prophet that is still valid today
for any leader who's weakness
borders on leadership qualities. The reason for Abu Zar's weakness
has nothing to do with his credibility
or truthfulness. Never! The prophet
was narrated as saying: "there is
nobody under the shadows of trees
or bare sun that is more honest in speech than Abu Zar" Abu Zar - May Allah be pleased with
him- is ascetic and inmaterialistic.
Abu Zar is incorruptible. And yet he is
not suitable for leadership. I am not claiming to be even by an
atom's weight anything close to our
noble prophet, yet I am encouraged
to give you this same advice by the
virtue that you are not also close to
Abu Zar in piety. We are living in a time of great tribulations and fitnah
especially for this Ummah because of
our collective iniquities, ignorance of
religious instructions and the love of
Dunyah. Sir, your weakness is not in your past
impeccable record of accountability
of public wealth and the fight
against corruption and indispiline.
Your weakness is in your inability to
control men compounded further by your strict and obsessive rejection of
corruption. Don't be surprised. You may need to
understand that Islam being a
pragmatic religion allows the use of
Zakkat and public wealth as an
instrument to pacify and lure
influential people for the sake of rightouness, peace and stability. In
modern governance today it
translate into the security vote. Thus men are also controlled by
money. So if your policy of
governance is obsessibly centered on
sealing tight the use of money you
will have great problem with men.
An Arab poet said: "a fool cannot be the leader of his people but the true
leader of the people must feign
foolishness". It's convenient for your ardent
supporters to quote copiously from
the annals of history your great
achievements but when your failures
and weaknesses were pointed out
they say that was in the past. Is the lessons of past history only good for
the positive achievements? Doesn't
that also explain our incessant
failures? Your Excellency, good intentions are
never enough. In the past, because of
your clean records and
straightforwardness you were lured
by men who want only the vanities
Dunya to uproot a young democracy on the caprices of fighting
corruption. Corruption is no doubt an
evil but there is a more monstrous
evil than corruption. That is turmoil
and insecurity. Peace and stability
are the most important part of governance that no price is to high
for them. The lack of peace, stability and
security is the major predicament of
this nation since independence. So
when you were naively used by men
to derail one, that is the greatest
disservice you committed to the nation the ills of which we are yet to
recover from. Do you truly believe
Allah is still not in cognizance of
that? You were lead to uproot a duly
elected leader and incrassate him for
close to two years knowing fully well that he has no charge of even the
corruption that was labeled against
him. Yes, Shagari was the leader and
therefore he bears all the
responsibility of misdeeds in his
government, so also you were a leader and you should bear all the
responsibility of derailing the peace
and stability of governance in this
country as a consequence of that
putsch. You weakness in control of men
became evident when the very
people that used you to revolt
against a constituted authority came
back to uproot you from the seat of
power. Your own kinsmen without a gun cocked in your defense. Today
the corruption you were deceived to
fight against has reached
unimaginable level coupled with the
worst state of insecurity and peace
in the nation. There was just recently an attempt on your life like many of
us. All this because you the honest
people that are given the privilege of
strengthening the Armed forces left
it to meddle in politics. We thus lost
everything. Neither the power nor
the security. A believer is not stung from the
same hole twice. Men used your
innocence before to get power and
dump you. Please be sensible today.
Some other men still want to use you
to get power and surely they will dump you again. You don't share the
same philosophy at all. Even though
as I explained later, your obsession
and philosophy of fighting corruption
is not the priority of Nigeria today.
What Nigeria needs utmost now is peace and stability. This can only be
achieved when the religious ethnic
and regional divide is tamed. And
you can only tame it with people
without much precedence. People
without much following. Yet people that are constructive and have the
ability to control men. If Sardauna today is alive in your
situation he will never contest for
the presidential seat because of his
deep understanding of what the
nation needs. He will step down for a
more acceptable younger person. It's on record that Sardauna even at the
age of under 60 said he was not
going to contest again preparing his
only house in Rabah for retirement. I'll give you a similitude to buttress
my point of priority. A person
seriously injured and fractured from
a road traffic accident when brought
to the emergency room, the first
priority of the doctors is to secure an intravenous line. Meaning get a drip
set working into his veins to protect
his vital organs like the heart and
kidneys from the effects of shock
and loss of blood. The fractures even
though serious and the source of the blood loss may take days and weeks
before they are even attended to
beside the superficial dressings. Nigeria now needs peace and
stability first. Then we talk of good
governance later even though it's the
source of the predicament we are
facing. The present government has already
charged the situation and played the
religious divide to it's advantage. It's
in circulation now, a SW pastor
calling on Christians and the church
to vote Jonathan as their only Savior. This religious card will be used to
cover for his deficiency in
governance. Your Excellency, you should
understand too, that many if not
most of your supporters are also
looking up to you to protect them
from the onslaught on their religion
and region. This also the Christian will never believe the otherwise.
Therefore the stage is set for
religious confrontation which is the
least the nation needs. What we need as a priority is peace
and stability. From my view if APC can support as
an example Amaechi or Okorocha/
Kwankwaso or El-Rufai or
Tambuwwal ticket and the PDC will
have Ukpabio/Muazu or Ribadu or
Shekaru, the next four years will. - insha Allah - witness stability both in
the north and south. And the
electoral body will get the necessary
infrastructure that subsequently the
next election will be free and fair
and the true reflection of Nigerians. If you may ask, why can't this same
peace be achieved with you and
another Christian running mate? Gen. you have antagonist, and they
are many and also as ardent as your
supporters. Your supporters have the
biggest proportion of the
underprivileged of the society which
is the petrol that can be easily ignited by the slightest spark. The
spark will be when you're declared
the loser. And you know you can very
well lose if the Christians follow their
church -and why not in this era of
mediocrity. On the other hand if Jonathan comes
back. BH will be real not the political
one we see. The turmoil will engulf
the whole country not only the north.
That is why I also call on PDP to
present some other candidates. My Brother in Islam, please listen to
the words of wisdom. And don't
follow the whims of the riff raff.
Before they used you the first time to
disrupt the second republic, my
father advised you against it. Today I am also advising you against
contesting in the 2015 presidential
elections because you will be used to
ignite the nation -a dream well
orchestrated several years ago- and
also be used by bad people as a ladder to grab regional and local
powers. I rest my case here. My best regards and condolence to
your recent loss. May Allah guide you and protect you
from the evil men and the jinn. Amin. Ahmad Abubakar Mahmud Gumi Kaduna, SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK
Nairaland GeneralFor Killed, As Boko Haram Continue To Destroy Christian Churches And Homes. by Akpan107(op): 11:36am On Oct 23, 2014
BY NDAHI MARAMA, MAIDUGURI
Barely two days when eight people
including passengers and motorists were
ambushed by suspected members of
dreaded Boko Haram sect around the hilly
road communities of Dzur in Hawul Local Government Area of Borno state, no
fewer than four Christians were killed,
living two churches and over 50 houses
razed down by suspected insurgents in
Pelachiroma community of Hawul on
Tuesday. Pelachiroma is few kilometres away from
Dzur which is a mountainous community
harbouring terrorists camps along the
Biu- Garkida- Gombi- Yola road where the
late emir of Gwoza, Alhaji Idrissa Timta,
and other innocent people were ambushed and killed by suspected Boko
Haram sect early this year. Hawul is a predominantly Christian
community, south and about 210
kilometres drive from Maiduguri, the
state capital that has been under series
of Boko Haram attacks in the last couple
of months ago with absence of security operatives. Just last two weeks, some insurgents
stormed Shaffa community which is about
10 kilometres away from Azare, the
council Headquarter and killed over 20
people including a Pastor of Living Faith
Church, Pastor Eluid Gwamna Mshelizza who was slaughtered on his way to his
house after performing a public sermon
programme at about 10pm in the
community. In that attack, no fewer than 6 churches
were razed down with several houses and
shops all belonging to Christians were
looted and destroyed. Fleeing residents of pelachiroma told our
Correspondent that the insurgents who
stormed the village at about 9pm started
shooting sporadically at their targets with
no confrontation as people scamper for
safety. ” They came with motorcycles and well
armed with ak47 rifles and petrol bombs
targeting christian faithful and our places
of worship. ” as I am talking to you now we have all
deserted our community as the insurgents
who were chanting Allahu Akbar ( God is
great) vowed to eliminate Christians in
Haul Local government area. ” we are really disturbed because, Hawul
which is predominantly a Christians
community has been under series of Boko
haram attacks without confrontation or
deployment of military operatives”. Mr.
John Markus pelachiroma lamented in a telephone call but now taking refuge in
Biu council area. The Caretaker Chairman of Hawul Council
area, Dr. Andrew Usman Malgwi
confirmed the incident. He said, his
people are under series of attacks by
insurgents as security operatives
particularly the military authorities have failed to deploy its personnel to Hawul
despite all pleas. He said, “Yes some of my communities
are currently under Boko Haram attacks,
the insurgents laid raid ambush along
Dzur highway and killed several people
before destroying many vehicles last
week. This time around they wrecked havoc in Pelachiroma where they killed
three persons with destruction of
churches, houses and business centres,
but as government we are making frantic
effort to see to it that security operatives
particularly the Military are deployed to safeguard lives and property”. Dr. Malgwi
stated. End

talking about APC mega party which is
not ANPP, CPC, APGA or CAN,” he added. He said people should look at example

where from 1999 to 2011, presidential
aspirants had to go for primary
elections not arranged election. Also Read: Kate Henshaw picks up nomination form "It’s a collection of all and we always

why the PDP has been winning all along and all others who are making arranged
elections are losing elections.” Kwankwaso added that the ruling party
had decided to do their own primary in
the Villa and the APC was going to the
field. “That shows us clearly that APC will win
elections and the PDP will lose in 2015. I
believe that since this party is very
strong, all candidates should go round
the country and campaign, bring in
more hands, more people. And that’s exactly what we are doing." He was confident ahead of the poll. "One of the advantages that I have is
that it is not only APC that will vote, the

Nairaland GeneralAn Open Letter To GEN Buhari APC Presidential Hopeful. by Akpan107(op): 7:49am On Oct 22, 2014
This article was written by Donald Ekpo.
It's quite long but not withstanding, it's
a good read. AN OPEN LETTER TO GEN. MUHAMMADU
BUHARI AND HIS ADVISERS
cc: Tinubu, Ameachi, Elrufai, Okorocha Sir, In as much as I could have fared better
by just keeping mute and allowing you,
our perpetual unelectable past military
dictator and Head of State General
Buhari to go to the polls and fail as usual,
I find it very amusing, embarrassing and insulting that you keep allowing
yourself to be deceived by those you call
aides. In 2003, you were deceived, you fell for
it and got embarrassed though
unnoticed. In 2007 you tried again, you
came out crying and swearing, yet it
made no difference. In 2011, you
probably felt like Abraham Lincoln, so you came to try again, you were
massacred in the polls. Out of anger you
called out your butchers to go on a killing
spree, and several hundreds of innocent
Nigerians were killed. I remember you
wept and promised never to try again. I wonder what came over you again Sir,
I wonder who advised you, I wonder
what makes you feel that you could take
advantage of the misplaced zoning
formula of the PDP to make yourself as
the only available consensus northern candidate like Atiku. Sir, you believe in
the absence of a PDP northern
candidature, you stand a chance? Sir, you
may have been fully convinced by the
turn out during your declaration. Oh!
What a deceit. Whoever did this to you General does not like you. On a second thought, I sort to ask who
your immediate advisers are? can you
imagine that the likes of Bola Ahmed
Tinubu, Lai Mohammed, Elrufai, baby
Governor Rotimi Ameachi and disgraced
governor Timipri Sylva are now you closest advisers. What a people. Sir their names alone can
be defined as the selfish, power-hungry
and con-men of our time. If you ask
them what qualities of you makes you
electable, Sir am sure they will tell you
that you are incorruptible. Incorruptible? and you are feasting with corrupt men.
You are seen with them, they think with
you and you act like them. And you
expect Nigerians to assess Bola Ahmed
Tinubu as incorruptible? You want Nigerians to look at your
financier the Child Governor as
incorruptible? Lord Jesus!!!. And because
birds of the same feather flock together,
they were able to advise you to lie to
Nigerians that you borrowed money from the bank because of your
relationship with your bank manager?
When did busy bodied Ameachi become
your bank manager? As incorruptible as
you are, you could not tell them that you
don't lie? Your advisers also told you to tell the
world that Abacha was incorruptible? it
is alright, I understand, You are as
incorruptible as General Sanni Abacha. Mr General Sir, I never knew how corrupt
Abacha was until the likes of Bola
Ahmed Tinubu told Nigerians. I never
knew that you could convince them of
your very self and Abacha's
incorruptibility until I saw them flocking with you. I never knew you could also
convince them to come with you to visit
General IBB to give you his blessings. Amongst all the Generals I know in the
Nigerian Army, you have been the most
inconsistent. First, like in my dream, you
took up a job from your junior officer
that was one of the arrow heads in the
coup that toppled your government. Yet you carried a grudge against IBB and you
still do. You took the job because it availed you
the opportunity to steal Petroleum Trust
Funds meant for development. You
stooped so low just for money. You have
never been sincere in your life. You keep
telling Nigerians you are broke, you have never told Nigerians what you do
for a living. You don't work, you don't farm, you
don't own an investment. Sir how do
you feed and fly around in a private jet?
Sir how much is your pension? Let me remind you sir. Shortly before the
coup that you plotted to topple a
democratically government in December
1983, HE Alhaji Shehu Shagari excused
you in Jos during an event, and told you
he has heard rumors of an impending coup, You people were seated together,
He spoke to you in confidence, yet you
lied to him, you acted as pretentious as
you are and ordered your lieutenant to
call the GOCs for a meeting to clear the
air. You pretended as you were an umbrella protecting the President. You
made all of them swear that there was
nothing like that. Yet on the new year
eve, you betrayed the same man that
entrusted his life to you. As a matter of reference, can you tell
Nigerians what you did in your 2 years
as head of government? You had no
National Assembly to check up your
excesses, So what did you do or achieve
that will make Nigerians want you to come back and finish? Sir did you build
any road? Please can you show me one hospital
you built for your people? Did you create
a state like your contemporaries? Did
you build any institution that can be
referred as a creation of your
government? How was the economy of Nigeria then that you have shamelessly
claimed that Nigeria's economy is
depreciating? Sir have you forgotten
how you canceled all the mouth
watering developmental projects that
would have grown our economy by today? If you were to sit on a panel to tell
Nigerians what you did what will you
say? That you back dated a law just to
kill Nigerian youths? That you tortured
Journalist? That you took away
Nigerians' freedom to talk? That you selectively locked up all southern
politicians in Prison while you kept their
northern counterparts either in their
house or in your guest house. Can you
tell Nigerians why you locked up
Ojukwu and Awolowo that were not in government? can you tell Nigerians why
Ekweme that went to government
richer and left poor was locked up? Can you explain to Nigerians why you
took away their freedom of speech? Can
you explain why you criticize
government when you decreed a law
that was to lock up any Nigerian that
criticized government? Sir, I have a feeling that you are a hypocrite of the
highest order. IBB must be laughing at
you. Can you honestly tell Nigerians how
qualified you are to rule over them. Yes
you are qualified to rule Almajiris, but
how about the average youth in Nigeria
that is educationally qualified than you,
how do you intend to rule him/her? General Buhari, as an adult of workable
age even if you should be enjoying your
retirement like those that came after
you, what is your educational or trade
qualification? Do you have any? What is your managerial qualification or
skills? Even our amiable General
Abdusalami Abubakar that retired from
the army 15 years ago is happily retired
in his country home, and you that left
the army about 30 years ago is still flying around looking for ways to be
Nigeria's President? Sir on what basis? The present President now a Doctorate
degree holder was less than 26 years
when you were President, Sir is it not
shameful that you expose yourself to
continuous failures in the hands of
people that you once ruled over? All our past Presidents and heads of
governments are elder statesmen with
international Portfolios. Ranging from
General Gowon (Happy Birthday Sir) to
our recent General from the farm, they
are all either United Nations or African Union or Commonwealth Ambassadors,
Sir you are still here receiving abuses
and causes in the political sphere from
people that saw you as a minigod in
those days. Sir can you imagine how and what
General IBB, General Gowon (HBD),
General Abdusalami, General Obasanjo
will regard you as? Imagine what Alhaji
Shehu Shagari will be thinking about
you? Do you still have the guts to look at him in the face? please what did he say
to you last time you were with him at
the state council meeting? Am sure he
said he forgave you because there is
nothing more to do to you. Your
punishments are well placed sir. Tell your advisers that enough is enough,
they cannot keep embarrassing you like
this. Don't be misled by the turn-out
during your declaration, have you not
noticed that it is the same people that
have been turning out for you all the time, and all you end up having is
12million votes out of about over
40million votes?. Votes that are regional
and religious. Sir please hear what a
fellow northerner at the event had to
said; " Nevertheless, I was moved by curiosity
to ask quite a number of them why they
are inclined to his undaunted support? To
my greatest amazement a large number
of them responded similarly thus "MULKI
NA YAN AREWANE, KUMA DOLLE TA KOMA AREWA" ...IN SIMPLE WORDS,
LEADERSHIP AND GOVERNANCE BELONG
TO THE NORTHERNERS AND THEREFORE IT
MUST RETURN THERE". It was a massive
crowd highly dominated by the Hausa
fulani of Nigeria, with a handful number of other tribes... it was a gathering of more regionally
sentimental folks, with a clamor for
northern agenda, and as usual with the
crowd yearning for Buhari's support. It is
highly dominated by hausa fulani tribe
of Nigeria..Another, obviously deceived by my attire, said boldly to me
that..."LOKACI YAYI DA ZAMU
YIKWALLON WAJE DA WANNAN
GWAMNATINARNAN"....BY
INTERPRETATION, IS HIGH TIME WE
SHOULD BOOT OUT THIS GOVERNMENT OF CHRISTIAN DOMINATED. What a pity.. Religion has become the
driving force to the majority of their
supporters. Like a saying goes, "when
motive is wrong, nothing you do that is
right".
Therefore, if the undaunted support given to him is based on these reasons,
as usual Buhari is about to set the
highest record of presidential loss of
election in the continent of Africa. Little
wonder he has little electoral voting
popularity in the Southern part of the country. The majority of Christians
hearing such reasons for his people
support(for Buhari) will rather pocket
their vote and deliver it to a man who
built Almajiri Schools to their fellow
brothers the muslims in the North, yet he is not a muslim." Sir have you seen your support base are
those that don't know why you should
never be elected as President? Several
millions in the north will not vote for
you Sir. They already know who they
will vote for. And by the time we finish exposing your motives to those in the
south, they will prefer to stay at home
than give their votes to "UNCERTAINTY"
Am sure a lot of them enjoy their
freedom, and your motives are clear,
you have intentions of diplomatically Islamizing Nigeria, and that is not
acceptable to all muslims, and you have
never cared. Sir, remember you once told
Muslims to only vote for those that will
uphold Islamic tenets. I don't know if it
is same with that of Boko Haram tenets, but I must tell you sir, Nigerians love
their freedom, and will not risk it to
uncertainty. You have never done as you
say, rather you are full of surprises, who
knows, maybe if given the chance, your
next surprise may be too big a mistake to deal with. Because of these fears, sir
please read what a fellow northerner
said about how their votes will go; "They (northerners) will prefer to vote a
man that gave them the highest number
of Federal Universities newly created,
even though he is not from the North.
They will prefer to cast their vote to the
President that gave them the highest number of political appointed positions,
though he knows he is popularly called
'Arna' (a derogatory way of calling a
Christian, though in actual sense it
means "an infidel"wink. We are collectively beneficiaries of
SURE-P Programme as a nation
irrespective of your region. Pathetically,
the nomenclature attributed to him by El
Rufai as a 'Perpetually unelectable'
seems to have come to stay. If I go by my assessment of the crowd I
saw and their buccal vomits of the
reason for their support, then we are
about to record another presidential
unsuccessful story for the "Hausa/Fulani
people's General". As a General in the Nigerian Army (Once
a soldier always a soldier), Sir I appeal
to you to look around you and take a
few lessons from those that retired
much later than you and also a few that
did before you. Why is it difficult for you to accept your retirement in good faith
Sir? Why can't you groom the younger
generations to do what you could not do. Do I respect General IBB, yes I do with all
my heart. Even when it was not
acceptable to him, he knew when to
draw the blinds. He left and went back
to his quarters. He is still calling the
shots from there, but you will never see IBB embarrass himself in the public,
Never! Even my recent discussion with a
family member, I learnt he advised his
son to suspend his governorship
ambition because he has weighed the
chances to be a tough one. He will never seat and see himself, family or friend
embarrassed in a public event as an
election. Dear General Sir, If you had good and
trust worthy advisers, they would have
told you that political elections is like
gambling, you don’t gamble when it is
clear you will lose. A wise man knows
when to throw in the dice and call off the shots. After three experiences, you
should have known that you do not have
what it takes to win an election because
you lack the qualities of a united
President. If there were provisions for a
northern President, I can assure you sir, your chances would have been very
high. My regards Sir. 1 Kanyi

How daft you are. it seems you never passed through high school. Now tell me in the Exclusive Legislative List whose duty is it to defend the sovereignty of a state? You don't know and you come here spew thrash. APC is a mere opposition soo what are you saying do you expect Buhari to start importation of arms to fight boko haram? No its not possible its the duty of FG thats why we should fight the insurgents same way we fought the deadly virus.

PS: I am not saying APC or PDP is good or bad byt they are as well bad eggs among the good. Think with your head next time before quoting me.

Peace.
Sorry o. I thought Borno is an APC State and the Governor is the Chief Security of the State, collecting Millions or Billions of Naira from FG in the name of Security vote. Do you also think such deadly and evil group can function in anywhere in the Southern part of the Country?
Never!
Because the State govt and the masses will all unit again it. Therefore, they cant operate there.
The fighting/defeating of Boko Haram must be a collective responsibilty (as you said ealier), not for the President alone.
Here is my question, do you think the APC as a Party has been working with the FG in defeating Boko Haram?
If your answer is yes, tell me how they have been doing it, and if your answer is no, just remain silent and forget about replying me. Thank you.
