PointB: I do not intend for you to change your opinion about the murderer - Buhari. I just wanted you to know that guy, despite whatever anyone will say, was involve in the planning and execution of the plot to butchers fellow citizens in cold blood. Several of them were his defenseless colleagues.

If Buhari can do this, what else is he capable of?

You have no proof of him being a murderer. Although, he was involved in a coup to overthrow a democratically elected President without killing a single person. The proof you posted above holds no water in court of law. You may have a legitimate reason to be against him but Buhari is no murderer. Out of all the names you listed, why singling only him out as murderer? Do you have the list of people he killed while he was Head of State? If so, what was their wrongdoing?

PointB: Sad to note that. But TY Danjuma is no longer a public figure. I doubt he aspires to rule the country. We can't say same for the General, Muhammadu Buhari, who butchered his colleagues as they came out for morning PT.

Violence was the norm for military officers back then. Yoruba, Igbos and Hausas officers engaged in a lot of blood-letting back then. You made it look like Buhari was the leader of the pack but I saw several officers on the list were superior to him in the military. What about if Buhari was only responding to orders from the superiors? It is okay to have legitimate disagreement with Buhari, but this thing you dug up won't make anyone change their minds, be it for or against?.

Sincere 9gerian: Me too. Lol..

But this joke is too expensive. That Freedom Square will cost hundreds of millions of naira.

Haba! Multi-million naira project does not amount to hundreds of million. Why the exaggeration? The article did not say anything about hundreds of million.

Sincere 9gerian: Me too. Lol..

But this joke is too expensive. That Freedom Square will cost hundreds of millions of naira.

It worth the cost. Besides, a lot of people gonna be able to sell tomatoes and pure water there. This man (Rocha) will make a fantastic President than Jonathan. He is peoples' guy.

papadenzel: Bros no vex o! Na greatest abi na greater? Need 2 visit my primary school teacher! Dem no teach me well...lols

LOL!! You know insinsere9gerian always fighting a lot of people on nairaland so he had to use the "greatest" instead of greater.

PointB: In January 1966, some bunch of over-zealous, albeit naive officers of the Nigeria army took it upon themselves to cleanse Nigeria from corrupt politician. They plotted, and executed an unsuccessful military coup. Stories, and books have been written about them, I shall not attempt to revisit such especially since these folks are late (at least most of them.)

I am interested in the role a certain Mohammadu Buhari played in the July counter-coup. According to Nowa Omoruwa's account:

Planning:
"... practically all northern officers serving in Lagos, Abeokuta, Ikeja and Ibadan eventually became involved, three officers formed the innermost circle of the plot to overthrow Major General AguiyiIronsi. They were T/Lt. Col.Murtala Muhammed (Inspector of Signals), T/Major TY Danjuma (General Staff Officer II, SHQ) and Captain Martin Adamu (2nd Battalion, Ikeja).The coup leader was T/Lt. Col.Murtala Muhammed.

According to late Major General Garba (rtd), others involved in planning in the South include Captain JN Garba, Lt. William Walbe and Lt. Paul Tarfa (Federal Guards), [size=15pt]Lts. Muhammadu Buhari [/size] and John Longboem (2nd battalion), Lts. Pam Nwatkon (Abeokuta garrison, Recce), Lts Jerry Useni,Ibrahim Bako and Garba Dada(4th battalion, Ibadan), and Lt. Shehu Musa Yar'Adua (Adjutant, 1st battalion, Enugu).

Execution:

By the time (Murtala) Muhammed got to Ikeja, Captain Martin Adamu, Lts. Nathan, Nassarawa, [size=14pt] Muhammadu Buhari [/size] , Alfred Gom, Longboem and a bunch of NCOs were already in control of the battalion, having executed several Igbo soldiers and officers (including Major B Nnamani, one of the company commanders) and arrested many others by cordoning off the quartermaster section of the barracks or grabbing soldiers as they came out for morning PT.The battalion commander, Lt. Col. Henry Igboba, narrowly escaped a dragnet deployed around his house by Lt. Longboem and got away.

Muhammed reportedly gave orders to stop the killing



I know some will argue here that Mohammadu Buhari simply killed fellow soldiers. But does that make it right?

T.Y Danjuma was one of the culprits on the list and he happens to President Jonathan's role model. Jonathan said it himself that T.Y Danjuma was his role model as a politician.

Sincere 9gerian: The govt of Owelle Rochas Okorocha has done some good things for the people of Imo state but it is never short of comedy.

Governor Rochas Okorocha while speaking on national tv few hours ago and listing the achievements of his govt, claim to be building a multimillion naira Freedom Square where people can go and ventillate their anger. He said any citizen that enters the Freedom Square will be given 5hours to utters any statement in anger or ventillate their anger on any given issue. Within those 5hrs, the person will have immunity but after the 5hrs the person will be on his own.

The governor went further to state that Imo people will also be provided with pure water and tomatoes which they can splash on the floor in anger. It is not clear whether the splashing of those items will be restricted to Freedom Square or whether it can be done in any part of the state.

In another development that got me reeling with laughter, Rochas said a chieftancy title will be bestowed on him tomorrow (7/5/2013). Guess what the title is? Senior Advocate of the Masses (SAM).
Lol..

I love politicians with sense of humor.

PointB: I agree. Cowards that murder their comrades in cold blood; cowards like Buhari!

What about the cowards who blindly took his kinsmen to war (Biafra) to die for his selfish motive? The coward eventually ran away from the battlefield and seek refuge in Ivory-Coast. This coward died recently with blood of innocent Igbos on his hands too.

antiembezzle: when they come up with series of evidence, same hypocrites will cry 'foul', 'witch hunt', bla bla bla...

I am all for the probe and prosecution of Fashola if their is proof. In this case, I doubt PDP has any concrete evidence against him. Although, Fashola is an ally of Thiefnu who I believe is a very dubious man. They should help EFCC by providing them with evidence (document) incriminating Fashola.

kasiem: may u have an accident any day u step ur feet on any road done by gej. Say amen

Olori buruku omo iran kiran! Ko baje fun e t'omo t'omo.

Help EFCC prosecute Fashola by presenting evidence that show his corrupt practices. If PDP can't come up with evidence, then they need to just zip there trap for good.

tomakint: Try something else accursed soul, but don't commit suicide because this Jonathan will be there till 2019 by God's special grace you son of Belial ravished with frustrations! May God work on your life and lineage the way Buhari's post election results engulfed the entire North in 2011

I went through your post and I found this: https://www.nairaland.com/1263361/surviving-meager-salary-how-cope


This is one of the problems your god (Jonathan) was voted to address. The post shows your double-standard and hypocrisy at the highest level. Deep down in your heart you know Jonathan is not what this country needs with the enormous problem the country is facing but your ethnic and religious bigotry have clouded your sense of reasoning to the extent that you cannot say things the way they truly appear to you.

tomakint: Try something else accursed soul, but don't commit suicide because this Jonathan will be there till 2019 by God's special grace you son of Belial ravished with frustrations! May God work on your life and lineage the way Buhari's post election results engulfed the entire North in 2011

Akidanidani oniranu! If you do really know me, you would have known I have the dough to employ you and pay your salaries for the next 30 years. All I want is for the country to be led by people who have policies to change the lives of Nigerians for the better. Jonathan is not that person to take Nigeria to the next level. By the way, I canvassed for the same Jonathan during last election and supported him after the demise of Yar"Adua. My whole family voted Jonathan but they won't be doing that again except he performs miracle between now and end of 2014. Do I have right to be mad at Jonathan? The answer is unequivocally yes. Can you explain what someone like Anehni doing in Jonathan's Administration?

You are a cantankerous lowlife, religious, and ethnic bigot.

tomakint: indeed, you are a FULL BREED SOKOTO GHUDALI your life is unnecessarily filled with hate, how about those innocent lives wasted (including those lovely corpers) as a result of Buhari's loss to Jonathan in the 2011 Presidential elections? But you can come here to pretend you are starting a prayer forum but you know you are cursing yourself! Shame on you son of belial!

May God work on your life, your children and grandchildren the same way Jonathan is working on Nigeria's power sector. Amen!

KingsleyCEO: If this is true, they just lost my VOTE.

Don't believe the tribune story. Buhari is not going to be the CPC nominee.

For_Now: ...And which other Nigerian President may God work on your life? Buhari the islamic fundamentalist? Goat like you!

Eranko, omo iran kiran!

Sincere 9gerian: They keep crying and whinning but they'r always coming back for more doses of good reports from Sincere 9gerian. Sincere 9gerian is just too much

Arindin agba jati jati!

gboss4sure: Say Amen to the above prayer and lets also call it a day. What have i to be scared of? or are you scared of saying Amen to the prayer above too?. Why should i say Amen to the word of a frustrated soul who is bitter with his life? I have principles which i follow and even in church is not everything that the pastors says that i do say Amen to and i have my reasons. Yes i believe in GEJ and i have my reasons and i might not agree with all his policies but humans are created to disagree and agree and because i don't like one of his policies wont make start calling him all sorts of names and abusing the office of the president which is the exact reason the international community treat some Nigerians as rags when entering their country, that is because we have limited our country to the least in their eyes. Can you point to one Nigerian president that has ever been better than GEJ and state reasons why they are better than him. Am waiting... Also give me ONE REASON why i shouldn't vote for GEJ.

I picture you crying while typing your message. Oponu oniranu!

gboss4sure: May God also work in your life the way Buhari worked for Nigeria and the way tinubu worked in Lagos. Say AMEN. Olukwu. Jobless fool like you. You should go and ask your papa why he no become president instead of killing yourself over someone that is 100 times better than your entire generation. His Children can even buy you and use you as a slave monkey like you. Anuofia.

Are you one of Jonathan's dogs? Arindin jati jati!

kingoflag: Funny that none of GEJ's apologists have ever said "Amen" to this "prayer" since Ive been seeing it issued on Social Media. Apparently, they know they are lying when they praise GEJ. Im confused as to the need to be deceitful when they know GEJ is not even fit to be a Bee Exterminator to talk less of leader of the biggest black nation on earth? Why the need and desire to be stuck in the past--- which is where theyd remain if GEJ continues to be at the helm.

I dont understand how these people think.

Theirs eyes turn red and they just get angry instead of simple Amen. Gosh!

Ode oponu jati jati! May God work on your life the same way Jonathan is working on Nigeria's affairs. Amen!

topmostg: i second this !!

Imagine him saying
"future jihadist bomber(baby) got fried"
for crying out loud, a baby??.

He was even LOL!
SMH!

The guy has no regard for life. I dare him hold a baby and imagine the baby turn to ashes.

eGuerrilla: This is not a wise decision, in my opinion.
But I will hold off from making any further comments till there is confirmation from a different source, as I simply don't trust the tribune any longer.

Don't believe everything you read on newspaper. It is just not possible that they picked Buhari already. Doing so jeopardises their chances to show their democratic tendency. It is against the law and he would be disqualified if they just pick him without election at the convention. I don't believe it. My mind tells me Fashola, Rocha or Oshiohmole is going to be the nominee. Don't forget the same newspaper said two days ago Buhari was stepping down for younger and more qualified candidate.

gboss4sure: Don't let frustration kill you. The guy has a right to vote for whoever he wants so why bother yourself over his choice? Nawa for this ur bad belle o

Ode jati jati! You should jump into lagoon if it bothers you. May God also work on your life the same way Jonathan is working on Nigeria's affairs. Amen!

alexis: I agree, no baby should die like that.

I don't know why anyone would rejoice at seeing a baby turn to ashes like that.

ROYALD: THIS MAN DO NOT LIKE DEMOCRACY
HE WILL NEVER BE OR WIN THAT IS ALL

The only way for Buhari to lose this election is if by chance you improve your English. If your English remains the same, then he loses.

IGBO-SON:
We need to do something about our two main gateway airports ASAP!! See small Congo!......showing us up like this.

I thought bros Jo already renovated the airports we have in Nigeria. It's on the list of some of bros Jo's achievements so far.

Sincere 9gerian: So you want my oga to be replaced by "your oga" in 2015? Fool!

May God work on your life, your children and grandchildren the same way Jonathan is working on Nigeria's power sector. Amen!

solopumpy227: Your post in summary :
* You dont want to vote Buhari because HE IS TOO OLD
* You believe he once called Muslims to vote for only Muslims
* Some other figments of your imagination about the Great Man

(1) If you had sauntered through the desert for days and God preserved your life and sent an old man (at 70) to offer you water, will you take the water? If a young bandit (at 30) attacked you and came for your belongings in the same situation, will you thank him and ask him to come steal more?

(2) If you could provide the video evidence where GMB said Xtians for Xtians and Moslems for Moslems I AM READY TO PART WITH A $1000

(3) You claim to be young and advanced and you write LIES about a Great Man without any evidence. If you are truelly advanced you will NEVER base your judgement on hearsays only. Do an objective research on GMB and what he stands for. All forward-looking organisations with goals have old mixed with young people. Old people bring experience and maturity while the young bring vitality and innovation.

Grow up brother we need GMB to lay the foundation for A NEW BEGINNING

By the way Mandela was around 75 before he became President of South Africa. The current leader of India is 81 and Indians are satisfied with him. There are many over 70s still doing great things for their respective countries. I don't understand the age problem some people bring up. If it is not age they say he is Boko Haram or muslim or military ruler. If I remember very well, IBB was once called Boko Haram sponsor when he was contesting against Jonathan during PDP primaries.

emmysenior: May the best candidate win. Jonathan have tried;
1. Federal universities.
2. Rail road.
3. Effort on the power sector.
4. Local refineries.
5. Effort to rehabilitate and reconstruct/construct roads.
6. Commissioning of a steel company.
7. Amnesty to bh.
And a host of others that are still on papers such as the refineries that are yet to kick start, the heart operation stipulated to commence in UNN teaching hospital.
((((BOMB))))
Overall, he still have to learn a lot and surround himself with great minds and people with foresight.
People who will teach him that #2billion is bad. That 4billion for first lady's house is bad.
That 1billion for newspapers is outrageous.
That there's need for police posts around every nooks and crannies in the country.
That oxygen canisters are supposed to surplus in all federal hospitals. That security cameras aren't limited to FCT alone. That the buses he promised us during the fuel subsidy removal are yet to be seen in the states. Dredging of the river niger is at a slow pace. Employment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Etc.

I give you few minutes before you see Jonathan apologists come here to tell you everything you listed are on ground. Jonathan achievements are only on papers and internet. People are not seeing them or feeling them at all. I just hope he can change people's mind before end of 2014 because people are ready to revolt through their votes.

solopumpy227: Sunny Bobo thank you for your education.

Please can you help me with more information on what the Foreign reserve and excess crude account were (1) At the beginning of OBJ Govt (2)At the end of OBJ government and (3) Just after yaradua's death.

Thank you in advance

LOL! Sarcasm!

Frank-C:
I can only say that if all these things mentioned exist only on paper, then i guess you also exist only on paper too...

May God work on your life the same way Jonathan is working on everything on that list. Can you say Amen to that?
