PDP SPONSORED 2011 Post election Violent Not GMB. What Buhari never said 2015-01-09 20:31 Let us set the records straight. As Nigerians prepare to vote for progress and change in the upcoming Presidential elections, it is pertinent certain popular statements attributed to chief opposition candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari are set straight for God and man. Firstly, did General Buhari ever say he or they will make Nigeria ungovernable? The answer to this is a resounding, no!In an earlier write-up we carefully researched this inflammatory statement and discovered that it was made by a then PDP politician, Lawal Kaita from Kaduna. This is why the late NSA, Andrew Owoye Azazi said that it was internal PDP politics and their squabbles on zoning/rotation of the Presidency that led to the “sudden sophistication of Boko Haram.” It was within PDP that the discussion of rotation of the presidency came up, and Lawal Kaita was perturbed with Jonathan’s decision to continuelate Umaru Yar’Adua’s term in violation of the parties zoning policy.This was when Jonathan promised to only contest/ occupy the top spot one additional term (in addition to his completing Yar’Adua’s term) andalso when some northern PDP stalwarts and party founders threatened to make Nigeria ungovernable. There was no such confusion in Buhari’s CPC and thus no need and reason for such inflammatory pronouncements fromhis quarters.When Reuben Abati spun this statement upon the person of Buhari, the General took him to courtfor libel and the court judgment as awarded in Buhari’s favor. Buhari dragged Abati and The Guardian to court via suit no. ID/837/2011 and demanded N1billion damages. President Goodluck Jonathan then begged Buhari to settle out-of- court. See in DailyPost of January 13th, 2013: http://dailypost.ng/2013/01/13/presidency- begs-buhari-to-settle-slander-case-out-of- court/. The empathetic General agreed and Reuben Abati and the Guardian where the libelous article was published were made to publish an unreserved retraction of the slander against Buhari which they did in the Guardian of July 11, 2013. This is why Reuben Abati is called Nigeria’s evil genius. Our full article on this with all references can be read here on ENDS.ng: http://ends.ng/fact-it-was-pdp- that-promised-to-make-nigeria- ungovernable-in-2011-buhari-never-did/Did General Buhari promise election riots in 2011? The answer to this is again, no!General Buhari never prescribed riots or made any threat related to such in regards to the 2011 elections. He took the case of election rigging to court and never made a single statement containing threats in relation to it. The Lemu panel investigation of the post-election riots cleared the General of any guilt of complicity. The General released an exemplary press statement on the court’s rulingwhich can be read on SaharaReporters of December 28, 2011: http:// saharareporters.com/2011/12/28/statement- general-muhammadu-buhari-regarding- verdict-supreme-court-jonathans- electionBuhari did however state that if 2015was a repeat of the rigging on 2011, there will be a fierce fight He used the kare jini biri jinni Hausa proverb, which roughly cuts as ‘the dog and baboon will be soaked in the same blood,’ but is an idiom which means, there will be a real battle- could be legal; could be protests or any other battle, as this is a mere proverbial statement. Of course those who wished to paint this statement with the ‘blood’ contained in it did so eagerly as we see they have done in many other of his statements and statements attributed to him. Read more on the idiom here, by Dr. Aliyu Tilde on PremiumTimes: http://www.premiumtimesng.com/ opinion/5195-buhari_vs_pdp_the_dog_and_ the_baboon.htmlThe third hallmark statement attributed to the General: did Buhari ever say that a war on Boko Haram was a war against the north? The answer to this statement as with the rest is a resounding, no!Why are all these false statements attributed to Buhari? Well, for one reason the General is rather not that outspoken and is a man of extreme patience and tolerance who evidently only used legal means to redress the libel and false accusations against him planed and sponsored by the Presidency.So what did General Buhari say in 2013? He said, the institution of a State of Emergency in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe states was a declaration of war on the north of Nigeria.He did not say that fighting Boko Haram was a declaration of war against the north; no, after all he fought and destroyed not only Maitatsine terrorists, but also the Habre fanatical forces of Chad. He clearly understands the need of a real war against terror; he however saw that Nigeria’s President and the then army Chief, General Azubuike Ihejirika who has been labeled a Boko Haram sponsor by my organization, ENDS and Boko Haram negotiator, Stephen Davis, were not fighting any real war against the terrorists but were silently facilitating the continued reign of terror and seeking all meansto destroy the northeast as it is today.Also read: Dear Buhari!When Buhari wiped out Maitatsine inAdamawa state, he did not need to declare any phony state of emergency. He did not declare one either when he expelled the Habre Chadian forces from the 19 Nigerian occupied Islands in the northeast.Today the entire Nigeria saw the wisdom of elder statesman Buhari’s position against the declaration of the state of emergency and the senate thereby refused to extend the more harmful than good emergency rule that failed to yield meaningful results since it was instituted in May of 2013.I as a proponent of the State of Emergency in 2013 and one of thosewho canvassed and pushed for it didnot quite agree with the General at the time but now I understand his reservations and how this declaration and all others by the President including his recent cessation of fire have all been declarations of war against the Nigerian people, particularly those being decimated and displaced in the northeast by French foreign forces being organized and directed from Idris Deby’s Chad.In conclusion, the Jonathan government who without any investigation exonerated MEND who had claimed responsibility for the October 1st 2010 Abuja bomb attack, since then decided to pick on General Muhammadu Buhari, his most formidable perceived opponentand in so doing allowed and as some say, actually supported Boko Haram’s continued existence and carnage while his evil genius press and media men and the Femi twins continued to spew slander upon slander and libel upon libel against the person of Buhari, spinning his every proverb out of context, publishing twisted versions of his every word and even reflecting other people’s statements upon him.Proverbs 19:9 says… who breathes out lies will perish.Indeed the liars shall perish. For “Their throat is an open grave; they use their tongues to deceive.” “The venom of asps is under their lips.” Romans 3:13 ESV.- MyNews2 |
JackBaueress:Holy Mary! |

God bless Buhari! sai changi! |
barcanista:Yea ,it is the same minus influence he employed to install the clueless one that is now his Achilles heels. we shall see. |
barcanista:You check this out. Lemu said the desire for change as result of frustration of people regarding the failure of successive regimes to solve the nation's problems was one of the major causes of the post-election violence."The second major cause of the recent electoral violence was the existing widespread desire for changeas a result of frustration and disappointment of many members of the general public regarding the inability of the successive past regimes to solve the problems of electricity power failure nationwide, deplorable state of federal government roads throughout the nation, bribery and corruption which have virtually been legitimized in all affairs of our nation," he said.The committee exonerated retired General Muhammadu Buhari of accusations of inciting the violence, adding that the CPC presidential candidate was also a victim because his property was destroyed during thecrisis |
barcanista:No, mi comprehendo! it is written in English Language our present lingual francua. what you wrote was a well written piece to defend untruths! 1. Whose utmost constitutional n positional responsibility is it to defend n protect the state? GMB or GEJ? 2. Perception is something: why is the president , who supposed to be d epitome of law n order,so quick to remove an Ayo Salami or attack an Amaechi, pardon a Bode George but doesn't give a damn about an Alimod serif n every thing he represents? 3. Which DSS n for how long? The Ibb DSS that deliberately misinformed the president about the Chibok girl not missing for Eighteen days n no one has been punished for that treasonable act? oh spare me! 4. Alimod is the mole that has bn sabotaging GMB's past efforts hence our not trusting him in d new Nigeria arrangement called APC, n our several calls to PDP Gej Fed government to come arrest the BH among us anytime they make stupid insinuations like the one that landed Abati in court n forced the clueless one to Beg the next president, GMB. Oh as usual, Gej developed cold feet knowing full well that Alimod like Ffk n ikimi are their planted moles in APC. we snuffed opportunities out of them n they ran back to their natural habitat like dep gov Tele of Rivers. oh don't be so naive. We know all of you n we have our plan Bs. bring it on Bacanista ,I'm ready for yr! |
barcanista:It is shameful that you now defend Alimod serif even when there are documented security reports of his being the sponsor of one of the most bloodsucking terror outfit in world! it is even more shameful if the President who swore to protect us eat from the same plate with the most possible cause of deaths n pains of thousands of innocent men,women n children! |
suwailad:Nigeria: Lemu Panel Report - Crave for Change Caused Post-Election ViolenceBy Mohammed S. ShehuPeople's strong desire for change, culture of impunity, bad governments and inciting political statements were among the principal causes of post-election violence in April in which hundreds of people were killed, a presidential committee has said.The Sheikh Ahmed Lemu-led Presidential Committee on the 2011 Election Violence and Civil Disturbances presented its report yesterday to President Goodluck Jonathan, with a strong warning that the current state of affairs in the country could provoke social revolution unless measures were taken to improve people's life conditions.Lemu headed a 22-member panel which conducted investigations in thestates affected by election violence, including Kaduna, Adamawa and Akwa Ibom.In a speech at the report presentationyesterday, Lemu said the desire for change as result of frustration of people regarding the failure of successive regimes to solve the nation's problems was one of the major causes of the post-election violence."The second major cause of the recent electoral violence was the existing widespread desire for changeas a result of frustration and disappointment of many members of the general public regarding the inability of the successive past regimes to solve the problems of electricity power failure nationwide, deplorable state of federal government roads throughout the nation, bribery and corruption which have virtually been legitimized in all affairs of our nation," he said.The committee exonerated retired General Muhammadu Buhari of accusations of inciting the violence, adding that the CPC presidential candidate was also a victim because his property was destroyed during thecrisis.Lemu said, "Provocative utterances by many individuals and the widespread charge by prominent politicians including the CPC presidential candidates to the electorate 'to guard their votes' appeared to have been misconstrued by many voters to include recourse toviolence which they did."However, a long interactive session was held been the CPC presidential candidate and five-member delegation of the panel, led by the chairman, in the office of the CPC presidential candidate in Kaduna on 14th September 2011. It was discovered that he himself was a victim of the violence and of the destruction of his property the photographs of which were given to the said delegation."Lemu said the controversial PDP zoning arrangement and desperation by politicians to win election at all cost were among the factors that changed the nature of the presidentialelection into an ethno-religious contest particularly in the North.Speaking after receiving the report, Jonathan expressed the desire of the Federal Government to implement thereport but noted that he was "more interested in the preventive aspect of the recommendation than the punishment aspect. Yes, people who commit offences must face the laws of the land but how do we prevent subsequent occurrence is the key thing that is dear to me."Lemu earlier said the failure by successive regimes to implement reports of previous investigation committees "facilitated the wide spread sense of impunity in the culprits and perpetrators of crimes and violence in the Nigerian society.'He said the panel recommended that the president should order security agencies to fish out culprits of violence for prosecution and also revisit reports of investigations of previous incidents of violence."People indicted by the committees and commissions concerned should be prosecuted. These recommendations are based on what the panel observed from many victims of those previous disturbances who are nursing reprisals and have only been waiting for the slightest excuse to move into action which some of them did duringthe 2011 election violence and civil disturbances."Similarly, general insecurity of life and property in people's houses and on the high ways and kidnappings are fuel to the fire of public frustrationand disappointment."The next major cause of violence and disturbances is the manner in which political office holders have lucratised their respective positions at the expense of the whole nation. The panel discovered that the remunerations and allowances of the members of the legislature, in particular, are considered by stakeholders who addressed us or wrote to us about the issue to be outrageous."It has turned politics in Nigeria to a do-or-die affair for which many politicians of all parties are seriously establishing private armies to execute. In that respect, easy access to drugs, serious general poverty at the grassroots level and youth unemployment, in particular, are providing many foot soldiers ready for recruitment at a cheap rate," he said.Lemu said the panel avoided going beyond its jurisdiction to indict any individual or group of individuals because it was not a Judicial Commission of Inquiry.He, however, presented the cases together with the supporting DVDs and relevant documents in a manner that security agencies could follow upto reveal more facts about the cases concerned and take appropriate actions.He said the panel could not ascertain the accuracy of the claims or the remaining figure of the dead and other victims not accounted for but recommended the engagement of professional architects, quantity surveyors and estate valuers to help unearth the right figures of casualtiesand destruction.It recommended an interim token of compensation to be given to the identified victims.It called on the Federal Government to follow the example of Adamawa state which has made law to deduct for loss of life or damage to property from the fund allocation of the Local Government Area where communal violence may occur.The Lemu panel was set up Jonathanon May11 to unearth the causes and of the post-election violence and recommend solutions. |
barcanista:2. you say it is immaterial who said ' I ll make the country ungovernable' ? now that it is clear that Buhari didn't make such statement ,it is no longer immaterial who said even if it is PDP? Referring to question 4: don't you think the libel suit against the president spokesman Reuben Abati was a great opportunity to expose all the security details, because the government ought to have finished investigation into the 2011 post election violence which probably influenced Abati's n several PDP hatchet men like you labelling GMB with ' I ll make the country ungovernable', and let the law take its course? Why did the presidency who had been insinuating n even openingly adducing the violence in the country to GMB suddenly developed fucking cold n even begged GMB when a supposed opportunity to let the law nail him presented itself? who is fooling who n who is afraid of the truth being out? oh I forgot Guardian Newspaper even apologised to GMB when it was obvious that the presidency had used it to lie against GMB . |
barcanista:It is you who is lying by lifting words and sentences from a report n twisting them to suit your sinister motives. I have an answer for your first point . pls Nlanders judge who is lying by comparing the veracity of our submissions: read this; Nigeria: Lemu Panel Report - Crave for Change Caused Post-Election ViolenceBy Mohammed S.

FACT: It Was PDP That Promised To Make Nigeria Ungovernable in 2011, Buhari Never Did!Action/2 hours ago4th August, 2014For the record and your information,I, the author am definitely never PDP, but I am not APC either. I will only support the best human beingsfrom whichever party they emanate.I am totally not a political animal; I am averse to democratic politics. The only party I ascribe to as yet and have invested thought and finance in is SNP. So for those takento lies and slander, you can call me a paid whatever and APC author all you care, you will know deep inside that you do not even succeed in fooling yourself. My people, have never been in power, and I do not care and ever see power coming to my people. Now let’s proceed.There are several important points to be presented here. Best highlighted:1. Major General Muhammadu Buhari never said he will make Nigeria ungovernable in 2011 in anypublic format2. It was a PDP politician, Alhaji Lawal Kaita who actually said Nigeria would be ungovernable if Jonathan became president in 2011.3. It was Jonathan’s media spokesman, Reuben Abati who sat down and largely concocted the slanderous libel against Buhari’s name in April 2011.4. General Muhammadu Buhari took Reuben Abati to court for damaging his name.5. The Jonathan Presidency beggedMajor General Buhari to settle the case with Reuben Abati and the Guardian out of court.6. General Buhari obliged and settled out of court. Reuben Abati with The Guardian published an unreserved apology to Buhari in the Guardian of 11thJuly, 2013.7.Late General Azazi referred to thePDP “ungovernable” crises and anger that did actually lead to Boko Haram terror franchise hired by the PDP.These are amazing facts which I have been shocked to discover since I paid attention to this matter.To imagine that the PDP can know that Buhari never made this statement and that they (the PDP Presidency) begged and apologized for it, yet all they did was kept Reuben silent and threw out other canines, Metuh and co, to continue right where Reuben stopped, is some of the most sick and evil stuff one can encounter or ever imagine. All this against the elderly, respectable General, because they see it as a fancy tool to generate animosity against their strongest single adversary… as a tool to hold on to power?It is one thing to fabricate a lie against someone. It is another thingto transplant an evil of your doing unto a person who you know is innocent. That is the most evil, evil in the books in my humble view. This precisely is what PDP did and continues to do. Buhari was nearly bombed to death and the dogs continue to utter their putrid trash and invented slanderous concoctions against the poor elderlygentleman. It is frankly satanic. He is such a compassionate gentleman, no joke, if it was me whohad all the facts you will read below,I would have been all over the place letting the truth be known and getting the slanderous liars locked up forever.A Timeline of Lies and Slander:Major General Muhammadu Buhari never said he will make Nigeria ungovernable in 2011 in any public formatPoint number one needs no referencing. I’ve done the research tons of times. Since I wrote my article, “Now that Nigeria is ungovernable, what next,” on the 15thof March, 2014 [http://ends.ng/?p=679], no one has commented and refuted my results. Buhari neverin any public media threatened to make Nigeria ungovernable in 2011.That is final fact. Nothing more need be said.It was a PDP politician, Alhaji LawalKaita who actually said Nigeria would be ungovernable if Jonathan became president in 2011.It was a PDP politician, Alhaji LawalKaita, who is quoted to have said, “The North is determined if it happens, to make Nigeria ‘ungovernable’ for President Jonathan or any other Southerner who finds his way to the seat of power on the platform of the PDP against the principle of the party’s zoning policy.”The big problem was in PDP. When Yar’Adua died, PDP northern politicians wanted power to stay in the north and as such they insisted that Jonathan should not succeed him. It was PDP politicians and onlyPDP politicians who threatened to make Nigeria ungovernable if Jonathan emerged the party nominee and ascended to the presidency that will make the nationungovernable, which they did. And Jonathan knew this and know them full well. He eats and dines with them but has watched us die in our thousands and lose our farming land and livelihood whole he has not brought a single one of them to book. He protects and goes to bed with them so long as they focus the ungovernability on the north. One now understand why Jonathan’s best man, former PDP Chairman and now appointed Railway head, Bamanga Tukur famously said that Boko Haram was fighting for justiceand another name for justice. It’s anin house thing. Boko Haram becamean invaluable tool to be hired and utilized by the party, and to be sustained as a weapon of slander against party opponents. It helped to galvanize votes by nurturing strange harmony in extremists and religious fanatics, especially northophobes who never cared to study the truth. (Truths like- northerners select southerners like Obasanjo or support Middle Belt Christians like Gowon into power; and truth like; why will northerners bomb up their own home-land and purposely destroy their chief resource – farming – to make a point).It was Jonathan’s media spokesman, Reuben Abati who sat down and largely concocted the slanderous libel against Buhari’s name in April 2011.It was Reuben Abati of The Guardian; that our friend, that spun the yarn about Buhari. It was Reuben that sat one dark night and concocted the malicious slanderoustales, rerouting the PDP terror statement to Buhari’s person. Reuben capitalized on our sectarianism, knowing full well that to most of us, one Hausa, or Fulani man was just the same as another Hausa or Fulani(to be more correct) man. Knowing that we had heard the statement made by PDP’s Kaita, and with Buhari’s “Baboon and Gorilla” Hausa adage with which he did promise that if what happened in 2011 repeated in 2015 (note the year), the Nigeria would witness a people’s upheaval; Reuben manufactured a tale one April night in 2011 and published this in the Guardian. It was captioned, “For theattention of general Buhari.” This was the article that was well buffered to make many careless Nigerians jump on the evil and satanic bandwagon of Buhari accusers. I have again fully well described Reuben for who he is and what he did and how he did it, in the recent past. See: “Reuben Abati: Nigeria’s Most Evil Genius?” [http://ends.ng/?p=1252]General Muhammadu Buhari took Reuben Abati to court for damaging his name.Of course, like anyone of us would, Buhari did not fancy this and he promised to take Reuben and the Guardian to court, and he did. Buhari took them to court for libel and slander. ‘Usual suspect’ General Muhammadu Buhari’s lawyers threatened to sue the President of Nigeria’s spokesperson, Reuben Abati in a letter sent on the 11th of July, 2011 for “inventing libelous” allegations against the person of the ex-President, accusing him of instigating post-election violence. The letter was sent on behalf of General Buhari by Harrison Ogalagufor his lawyer, Tope Adebayo. The accusations had been made againsthim in Rueben’s Guardian newspaper publication. [See: Post Election Violence: Buhari Threatens To Sue Reuben Abati For Libel; SaharaReporters, Jul, 17 2011]The Jonathan Presidency begged Major General Buhari to settle the case with Reuben Abati and the Guardian out of court.This is hard to believe but true. It was in all major news media. The Jonathan Presidency did beg General Muhammadu Buhari to settle out of court. And the noble man that Buhari is; he accepted. When this was happening, many of us read it but did not really realize what matter it was about – that it was about the great tarnishing of General Buhari’s name. It was in different media under the various captions – “Presidency begs Buhari to settle slander case out of court,” in DailyPost [http://dailypost.ng/2013/01/13/presidency-begs-buhari-to-settle-slander-case-out-of-court/], and “Presidency Begs Buhari To Settle Abati Libel Suit Out Of Court,” in Leadership, etc.Here’s a quote from leadership:“The presidency has convinced former head of state General Muhammadu Buhari to settle out of court the libel suit he had initiated against the special adviser to the president on media and publicity, DrReuben Abati.Abati had on page 51 of the April 22,2011, edition of The Guardian newspaper, written an opinion article entitled “For the attention of General Buhari”. In it, he claimed that Buhari made an inciting statement which led to the post-election violence that rocked some parts of the north.The former presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), however, regarded the publication as defamatory, intended to lower his integrity and to bring him into public ridicule. Buhari consequently dragged Abati and The Guardian to court via suit no. ID/837/2011 and demanded N1billion damages from them.But in a copy of the Terms of Settlement exclusively obtained by LEADERSHIP SUNDAY and filed before a Lagos High Court in Ikeja, the parties have agreed to settle the matter out of court.”But after begging Buhari to make little of it, Reuben just shut up thereafter and the other Presidencies men went right on withthe very same slander. Buhari beingthe gentleman, in fact over-gentlemanly, that he is, just sits back and watches these young desperate people secure their positions in hell for a little penny. It’s really stunning and terribly sad.General Buhari obliged and settled out of court. Reuben Abati with The Guardian published an unreserved apology to Buhari in the Guardian of11thJuly, 2013.And here is the post-settlement publication and retraction by The Guardian and Reuben Abati:GUARDIAN Re: For the attention of General BuhariThursday, 11 July 2013 00:00 EditorSIR: “On April 22, 2011, The Guardian Newspaper published an article on page 51 titled “For the attention of General Buhari” whereincertain allegations were made against General Muhammadu Buhari’s alleged role in the violence emanating from the elections.The publication was based on information which we believed to bereliable at that time. Since the publication, however, we now have reason to believe that certain parts of the story were not verified to be correct before the publication.We assure General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) GCFR of our highest esteem and regret any distress or embarrassment which the said publication may have caused him.” — Editorhttp://www.ngrguardiannews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=126723%3Are-for-the-attention-of-general-buhari-&catid=77%3Aletters&Itemid=613#.Ud6sCDHgyY4.facebookLate General Azazi referred to the PDP “ungovernable” crises and anger that did actually lead to Boko Haram terror franchise hired by the PDP.Of course, we all remember what made NSA General Andrew Azazi a most-wanted and the things he saidbefore he was killed in that helicopter crash. Andrew Azazi occupied the position of the top security man in Nigeria. No one elsewill be privy to information on the truth of Boko Haram as the head of nation’s security. Andrew Azazi clearly knew and could not take it. He spilled the beans. And he was martyred for it. Boko Haram died when Yar’Adua destroyed them. That was the end of Boko Haram. What remained was some scampering thugs without path or finance.But as Andrew Azazi explained to usbefore he was martyred; these rag tags “suddenly got sophistication and finance” as a result of PDP zoning and primary power tussles. In Azazi’s words:“PDP got it wrong from the beginning, from the on-set by saying Mr A can rule, Mr A cannot rule, Mr B can rule, Mr B cannot rule,according to PDP’s convention, rules and regulation and not according to the constitution {applause} and that created the climate for what has manifest itself, this way. I believe that there is someelement of politicization. Is it possible that somebody was thinking that only Mr. A could win, and if he did not win, there will be problems in this society. Let’s examine all these issues to see whether the level of violence in the North East just escalated because Boko Haram suddenly became better trained, better equipped and better funded, and in any case how did they get it all done…”May General Andrew Owoye Azazi;ssoul rest in perfect peace. We will surely avenge his death in the LordsMighty name. Amen.Truth is, – everyone at the top knows these things. All the politicians on both sides of the aisle know the truth; it is only you and I, the masses who have been taken for a ride here and of course, it is only us who die… well, Buhari almost did. What a shame it would have been had he passed before most of us realized what he had andis being subjected to and are able toseek his forgiveness for participating in the wicked lies against him.These are the facts. Everyone is invited to join this discussion and contribute what they know, so the truth can finally be clearly revealed and the guilty can be shamed while the innocent can be begged for forgiveness while they are still here with us.

Presidency begs Buhari tosettle slander case out of courtByIfreke Inyangon January 13, 2013@dailypostngrSubscribe to Daily Post NewsletterEmail AddressSubscribeThe presidency has begged former Head of States and national leader ofCongress for Progressive Change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) to settle out of court the libel suithe filed against the Special Adviser tothe President on Media and Publicity,Dr Reuben Abati.It would be recalled that Abati had onpage 51 of the April 22, 2011, edition of The Guardian newspaper, written an article entitled “For the attention of General Buhari,” where he claimed that Buhari made an unguarded statement which stirred the post-election violence that almost tore the nation apart.The former Military General however,regarded the publication as libellous, aimed at denting his hard earned name and image.Buhari consequently dragged Abati and The Guardian Newspapers to court via suit no. ID/837/2011, demanding N1billion damages from them.However, in a copy of the Terms of Settlement filed before a Lagos High Court in Ikeja, the ‘warring’ parties have agreed to settle the matter out of court.According to the terms of settlement, dated December 2012 and filed before the administrative judge of Lagos State, Justice Opeyemi Oke, the claimant (Buhari), Mr. Tope Adebayo ( lawyer to Buhari), Abati and Mr. Kunle Sanyaolu (lawyer to The Guardian) signed the terms of settlement. But the lawyer to the first defendant (Abati), Dame Carol Ajie, refused to sign the document. The refusal may not be unconnected to the conditions and terms of the agreement.It was gathered that the parties further agreed that Abati and The Guardian should retract and apologise to Buhari in certain form and contents.The terms of settlement reads in part: “The claimant (Buhari) and defendants (Abati and The Guardian)have agreed that the defendants should publish a retraction and an apology to the claimant on the Opinion Page of the newspaper, to beprinted in reverse line black (RLB) within seven days of entering the Consent Terms as the judgment of the court in two editions of The Guardian.“The claimant and defendants have agreed and resolved that the retraction and apology shall take the following form and contents: ‘Re: For the attention of General Buhari’- On April 22, 2011, The Guardian Newspaper published an article on Page 51 titled ‘For the attention of General Buhari’ where certain allegations were made against General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), GCFR, concerning the 2011 election and General Buhari’s alleged role in the violence emanating from the elections.“The publication was based on information which we believed to be reliable at that time.
