Apology is not weakness

TylerDurden:
Buhari never attended any council of State meeting since 1999.

Do you expect any of his predecessors to attend when he is now in power?

The reason Buhari can not schedule any Council of State Meeting is because he knows that other than Abdulsalami (and if you want to count Shonekan), none of the former Heads-Of-States will attend.

Is it Shagari that will come or Jonathan or IBB or Obasanjo?

I disagree that Buhari never attended council of State meetings. I think I have seen him in a few and Google images can prove that. Even in the run off to 2015 election. Just wondering why that body has only met once in 3 years plus

When was the last time this body met?

bigtt76:
But what id Prof Humphrey Nwosu did to deserve an award? He did not and still refused to divulge the final result. If he had gone ahead and announced the results and dare the powers that be, then we can say he deserved something, buh right now, I'm personally struggling to understand his contributions ....no pun intended

Nawa for you oo. The military says don't announce and annuls it and you announce. Abeg who won die.

This is a matter of the state he has no powers to act contrary

Okay

JUNE12 AND THE BUHARI SCAM

By Charles Ogbu

Nigeria is a funny country, in a negative way, I mean. NigeriaNS are even funnier, still in that same negative way.

A criminally inept ex-treasonous Dictator-turned genocide President wakes up few months to another election he is taking part in and claims he is honoring a man whose mandate and life were stolen by another dictator this present dictator served and still praise even now, and then he draws up the list of the Awardees to include the Presumed winner of that election, his Vice Presidential candidate and an activist who fought bravely for the stolen mandate but somehow, just somehow, this President conveniently forgets the man who conducted that same election adjudged the freest and fairest in the history of elections in the country and even took the grave personal risk to announce the result until he was stopped by the military Thugs with a voodoo court order and his Electoral commission dissolved.

So in a nutshell, even a Kingibe who abandoned the mandate, broke bread and went to bed with the Annuller-in-Chief of that election is more deserving of recognition on democratic credentials than the man who conducted the election and left no one in doubt as to who won

And, Nigerians are clapping for this double faced President.

No one is asking how a man can claim to adore Abiola and honor him while still adoring and honoring the same Abacha who stole that mandate and even killed him and his wife.

No one is tasking this man to prove he is not a moral crook desperate for votes by getting INEC to declare the whole result so we could stop this mockery of using the phrase "PRESUMED WINNER" while referring to the winner of that election.

Meanwhile, the man who supervised that treason against the whole country not only yet draw breath, he goes about his business with neither State Actors nor non-State Actors initiating legal measures to force him to account for what happened.

Quite frankly, ours is a broken society peopled by Primitive Morons who are being ruled by conscience-less clinical idiots.

We have a long way to go as a people and as a country. Tragedy is, we have not even initiated the very first step in this very long and perilous journey.

A shame, isn't it?

I have noticed something under heaven people forget that just as we have stomach pain, eye ache. Tooth ache, bone ache etc. The human head can also ache. We forget that the heart and the brain is the busiest in human body. They can also ache or malfunction occasionally.

In this part of the world, we pay little attention to mental health or medical checkup.

The brain can malfunction and the next action and of the person is never predetermined.

This Buhari declaration will divide south west.

My bad. Apologies. Nairaland has all of us hidden behind avartars.

mxpinky:
its real i witness this and i posted it before it didn't come to fp

You witnessed bullshit. Don't quote me with your silly lies and you are supposed to be fasting. How come you are a witness and what you claimed you posted is word for word with the blogger

What is the name of the pastor. What is the name of his church.

Abeg go slam your head on the ground for forgiveness

Switup:
sue him

Bros. I think say you like me before oo...

Switup:

two hundred and thirty-one likes truly u deserve some accolades.
and don't tell me Seun haven't done anything about this yet

Seun doesn't want to give me some accolades but I am unstoppable

ItsMeAboki:
Read the story again this time using your brain - apparently you don't have to go to Kano to find a slow poke.

I have read the story again with my brain Mr brainiard. Tell me what suggests in the story that what you read is absolutely true. Except that it was written by another mischief making blogger.

lonelydora:
Where have you been, Egbon? We have missed you

My brother. One mod gave me a 3 months ban. His power ends here.

I fear Nigerian bloggers. They can start a religious war.

Nothing in the above picture suggest or corroborate the story and one slow poke in Kano will read this and shout Allah huakbar and start beheading Innocent people

Why will a pastor burn a Koran and of all places near the central mosque. This story get as e be

Tell us they were kpanshing. Looks more like it than this crappy story

BlackPantherxXx:
I wish Buhari had the balls to nail OBJ.

Sadly he doesn't. "Common" Saraki is dribbling him like Maradona.

If Buhari can at least jail SOME folks, his reputation for failure would be reduced a bit.

I support NO politician in Nigeria. They are 99.9% thieves.

PS - Those claiming OBJ & Saraki's probes are witch-hunts should go for psychiatric evaluations. Are both rogues honest business men ?

The duo are not saints. But ask yourself, if OBJ was leading the re-election bid of Buhari will he be under this heat?

The intent is evil and undemocratic.once you don't support him and his ineptitude. You are corrupt

Buhari and Morroco is like 5 and 6.

That Morrocan king that look gay

this should win the most useless song of 2018.

the hustle is real

congrats for doing something

We will always remember May 29 As Nigeria's democracy day and June 12th as the democracy day Buhari approved 6days to June 12th of 2018 to persuade the southwest to vote him back. The South West are too educated to fall for the trick.

Why wasn't this decision made in 2015 when Ogun and Lagos governors begged for it and later awarded holidays in their states

Waiting for Yinka Odumakin, FFK, Adebanjo, and Fayose to reply him.

Imagine Kingibe also awarded GCON. #ThisisNigeria

When you need lalasticlala

If the robbers had said Danbazau or Buratai sent them. Would we have heard from the police

It's Sergio Ramos that need body guard. Egyptians will lynch him
