lexy2014: don't no what is d "term of reference" that's causing d friction entails, but from my observation and understanding of running a parallel govt, I don't think buhari has erred. In running a parallel, buhari would have been seen †☺ covertly and overtly usurp d powers and assume d functions of d sitting president by giving "presidential" orders and countermanding the orders of d sitting president. So far I haven't heard him do that. D only issue I c from d FGs perspective might b d diplomatic visits buhari has been receiving with various ambassadors pledging their countries loyalty †☺ buhari. D govt might view this as a breach in diplomatic protocol cause buhari isn't officially d head of state. Buhari has no control over these people so 4me, that doesn't constitute running a parallel govt thanks for the enlightenment |

Orunto: Nigerian vs Nigeria and for a legitimate reason. This is not bokoharam, 'cos bokoharam has no reason whatsoever to enter Nigeria except to invade and to loot. Dokunbo is different. He is a Nigerian fighting for PEACE in his God given domain. Amnesty International will take this pass our Supreme Court to ICC. So stop harassing Dokubo, he is not GEJ and stop driving him into the hands of the war hungry Massob. stop saying he's fighting for peace. How can you be fighting for peace and all that comes out of his mouth is war, threat & violence etc etc. |

major466: Pls bear with me if you find my writeup a bit disorganized. My tablet is yet to arive so am using a small phone to write this piece to express maself about recent development. Thanks for understanding.
I was thrown into a deep shock when i read in the news that President elect, M. Buhari bared media house AIT from covering his activities. Though i wasnt surprised by his action, i was surprise because he's already showing the true nature we knew he was even before swearing in. What sort of democrat bar a media house from covering public activities? Does he think the office of President is he's private property? Who does he think he is? A king? Does he know the meaning of a public servant? Maybe not. Why he's semi illiterate, if not he would have understood that in democracy, the office of the president is not only accountable to the people but also to the Press. That is why freedom of the Press is one of the shining lights of democracy as a form of government.
This singular act by Buhari to bar a media organization from covering his activities as president elect just confirm that he's still the same old dictator that he was 32 years ago. A liar who lied to the world in Chatam house that he was a democrat, banning a media house from covering his activities because of a documentary? Very childish and immature indeed! Does he know what democracy is all about? If he feels pained by a documentary then he has no business in politics.
I remember vividly during the US presidential campaign of 2008 when Fox News network castigated Obama to a point of no return. They made fun of him, ridicule him, called him monkey, fueled his birth certificate issues to the extend that almost got most Americans asking questions about his true country of birth. In the end he had to surrender his birth certificate to the press (unlike Buhari and his school certificate mess). It was a scandal. Plus the many other systematic attacks against his candidacy. Fox news people are racist. Those of you who watched that channel during and after the Presidential campaigns will know what am talking about. But ever since Barack Obama won the Presidency of the United States, not ones did Obama vent out his anger to revenge against fox news. Why? Because he understood the principles of democracy. As a private individual no media house will bother you. But as soon as you become a politician, the eyes of the press makes a microscopic look at your personality. The media will not only scrutinize your past but will also go way back in time to study your childhood background. Any shocking revelation will be brought to the public front. That is the way it is in democracy especially in advance societies like USA. Even our dear GEJ was not speared from the hard scrutinizing lens of the press, sometimes personal and insulting attacks against him. Did he ever vent out his anger by baring them from covering his activities? No. Why? Because he like Obama understood the principles of Democracy. He understood that press freedom is paramount in democracy. That's why Nigerians of all ages can express themselves freely without fear of being arrested. This is the beauty of Democracy and freedom. For Buhari to lower himself like a child who got his azz kicked by his cousin to trample upon Freedom of Press shows that he's nothing but the same old dictator in civilian clothes. Just like someone said, like OBJ like Buhari. Both dictators in civilian clothing.
BTW, I hear many Buhari followers giving excuses that he has the right to bar AIT citing privacy as reasons. Sure i completely agree that every individual on the planet deserves the right to privacy. That offices is a fundamental human right. But they however failed to note that as soon as an individual becomes a public official in the position of a President elect, privacy becomes a secondary issue. Infact privacy is not an excuse to bar a media organization from performing its function by investigating Buhari's activities as president elect. But when they were airing that hate speech against his person and his late wife and child, you didn't see anything wrong with it right? PHUCK YOU |

Foreign Affairs › Re: Open Letter To NIGERIA From A SOUTH AFRICAN by Banter1(m): 10:56am On Apr 24, 2015 |
Thandolwethu: I start by imploring you to read this letter with an open and unbiased mind as this will enable you grab the full gist of my message. I am a full blooded South African, born and bread in Soweto. I have never been to Nigeria and my impression of your Country is formed by the behavior and actions of the many Nigerians who live in SA and what we hear and read from the media about the goings on in your country. I deliberately joined Nairaland today as I noted that alot of you are on this Forum hence its a good platform to pass my message. Suffice it to say that i will delete this account after this message. I will read your responses with keen interest.
1. There is no question that there was xenophobic attack on Foreigners in SA in the past 3weeks. What is in doubt is the scale of the attack. I have noted that Nigerians have overtly blown the crises out of proportion by spreading lies and wrong information concerning the crisis. The idea that South Africans are going round SA cities killing, maiming and burning Foreigners is a lie. Only 7 people have been killed so far and of these 7, 3 are south Africans, 2 Ethiopians and 2 Mozambican. The world media is in agreement with these figures. While its 7 lives too many that doesn't give credence to the news going round in Nigeria that we are killing and burning Foreigners. If that's true then there would be more people dead. STOP BELIEVING WHATYOU READ AND WATCH ON social media as most are lies and fabricated figments of the imaginations of mischievous Nigerians in other to stoke the flame of discord between Nigeria and SA.
2. Why are Nigerians up in arms against SA with xenophobia when the war in Nigeria is far worse than here in SA. Boko haram is killing thousands your people everyday and there's no end in sight meanwhile no Nigerian has been killed in this Xenophobic attack. That is why Nigerians throng our embassies in Lagos and Abuja seeking Visas to come to SA and escape the despicable living conditions in the slums of Nigeria.
3. This recent Xenophobic attack was predicated on the fact that Foreigners commit so much heinous crimes in SA without impunity and we are tired of all these. We have our own criminals here so we cant add more problems from foreigners. A. NIigerians are the kingpins of drugs killing our children and society. Your brothers drug our girls into prostitution. They con our people with fraud and 419. They hack into our bank accounts stealing millions.
B. Zimbabweans are involved in robberies and car hijacking
C. Mozambicans kill our farmers and take our jobs for peanuts leaving many South Africans jobless
D. Ethiopians and Somalians open shops to do illegal activities and pollute our communities. There's a Somalian shop in every 2 houses on every street in SA. No Country can allow that.
SA has its own issues but we would like to solve them without the added problems of Foreign criminals.
If you like burn down shoprite and close MTN its your people that will suffer because these companies employ millions of Nigerians. They will simply go jobless.
Thank you even if boko haram is killing us, at least we are not killing foreigners. We are not #xenophobic . And this is not the first time it's happening in your country.
