Was he the head of govt when the refineries were built because you guys have been busy telling us how refineries were built by him? The point is that Buhari can only be compared to Abacha because his actions in office were similar to that of Abacha, just that he didn't last in office If the building of a refinery is going to be the criterion for voting in 2015 then your precious GEJ too does not qualify AT ALL! 1 Like |

@itoroetti you seem to be crying more than d bereaved. I'm yet to hear the Kutis crying as you are concerning Buhari!
It's either you've forgotten or didn't know that Fela contested under the Movement Of the People Party that he formed and that could be the reason he made up such song about Buhari who was made to head the military govt then!
All the things you said Buhari did was as a military head and not a Democratic head. So it's like comparing apples with oranges!
The ones who are elected and yet doing the stuffs you've accused Buhari about are definitely worse off! Under GEJ, newspapers where seized in the name of national security! Under GEJ, an AIT reporter was unjustly arrested for using the adjective 'controversial'! I can continue mentioning what a democratically elected govt of today has done wrong.
Why not let's see a democratic and progressive Buhari's regime before you can then be said to be comparing apples with apples!
If GEJ were a military head before now then you could make a better comparison! If you desire to compare Buhari's military regime then let it be with any other military regime head!
Mind you, apart from Abacha, no military head of state that ever ruled Nigeria planned a coup de tat. Go and check history. They were all placed there by the SMC(supreme military council)!

Politics / Re: Open Letter To Buhari;nigeria Does Not Belong To You Alone by Civory(m): 2:23pm On Oct 10, 2014 |
Oersted: “Dear Sir, OPEN LETTER TO GENERAL BUHARI I have been constrained to write you through the media because I do not have an alternative way of reaching you. Permit me to share my opinion on your presidential ambition, which I think is equally shared by many Nigerians of my generation irrespective of ethnic or religious differences. Sir, I heard about you first on the 31st of December 1983. Then I was a ten year old boy in primary six, celebrating with the whole nation on the arrival of our military Heroes. At least so we thought! The jubilations were spontaneous. The nationwide celebrations signalled the demise of the second republic and ushered in the military dispensation commonly referred to as the Buhari/Idiagbon regime. Immediately you launched the War Against Indiscipline and introduced the Nationwide Monthly Sanitation Exercise. The WAI crusade stuck in my brain and still reverberates up till now. To simplify the message my Teacher introduced an Igbo acronym for WAI: Wepu Ajo Ihe; which literally translates: Remove Bad Thing. READ ALSO: Buhari Sure Of 2015 Victory Sir, I must confess that the image that stuck in me about Buhari/Idiagbon was that of two no-nonsense characters, straight talkers, people who meant yes when they said yes and vice versa. This impression I believe was equally shared by many others in my generation. Today, I am a 41 year old Nigerian. A lot has changed. I see things differently now. I am now a fully grown man who can analyse issues critically. One thing I believe passionately is that it is very important for one to set a standard for oneself, but equally more important to sustain the standard. On the final lap of your presidential campaign for 2011, you made an open declaration in front of the media and your supporters, without mincing words you stated emphatically that 2011 would be your last attempt to contest the Presidency. Going by your legacy and standard, many People including I took you by your words. After all Buhari means yes when he says yes. However that promise was short lived. Before one can say Jack Robinson you have joined the race again for the fourth consecutive time, contrary to your open declaration. Of course I concede you have every right to change your mind and contest every election as long as you live. It is however very remarkable to observe that you shot yourself in the foot when you reneged on your promise to Nigerians not to contest the Presidency again. So judging you by your own standard, you have fallen below expectations. The pertinent question people are asking now is ” HOW CAN WE EVER TRUST YOU AGAIN”? Another important questing worth asking you is ” WHAT IS NOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUHARI AND OTHER POLITICIANS”? I would say none! Oh yes you have got the constitutional right to contest, but eating your words has done your reputation more harm than good. People now see you, and quite justifiably, just like a typical politician who is unstable and unreliable. READ ALSO: Why I Decided To Run For Presidency Again — Buhari Some of your supporters continue to amuse me by claiming that President Jonathan allegedly signed a one term pact with them. Unlike you Jonathan never made any open declaration to serve only for one term. Those of them who continue to make this ridiculous allegation have refused to produce the transcript of the said agreement or tender any proof to substantiate this. So as far as Nigerians are concerned Jonathan never struck any one term deal with us. But you did promise openly and suddenly reneged. In fact you actually sealed the promise with your tears. An elder Statesman of your calibre and pedigree made a promise and shed tears to seal it, that should have been final. It is very symbolic when an Elder sheds tears in the continent of Africa. It was a covenant with Nigerians not to contest again. A promise abruptly broken. But this is politics. Everything is possible in this game. Sir, I know you have many reasons for reneging on your promise but most of these reasons are laughable. Some claim your supporters put pressure on you to change your mind, but this is an old excuse which is as old as Nigeria. Even late General Abacha had people begging him to contest. A principled and disciplined officer like you should have remained steadfast to your open declaration. Others claim you are still young, after all you would be only 72 by the next Presidential election. At 72 you would still be much younger than Mugabe. So they claim! But they conveniently refused to check Mugabe’s next door neighbour Madiba. Suffice it to say that Mandela is the very opposite of Mugabe and the ideal role model for all African leaders. Mandela declined to go for a second term because according to him , age was not on his side. He could have won a second term and transformed to a life President if he wished. But he never did. He voluntarily made way for the younger generation to continue from where he stopped. This is what is expected of you now to retire voluntarily and join the respected league of Elders where you truly belong. Another reason which some of your supporters have tendered is that you are genuinely motivated by service and patriotism. I gladly take this on board. I can give you the benefit of the doubt that you are driven by the urge to serve your fatherland. This is a very valid reason. But Sir, I have an important question here for you. The question is simple, MUST YOU SERVE NIGERIA AS A PRESIDENT ONLY? IS THERE NO OTHER CAPACITY YOU CAN SERVE US EXCEPT THE PRESIDENCY? READ ALSO: Buhari Refuses To Step Aside It is very erroneous to imagine that you can only serve Nigeria only in one capacity. During the regime of late General Sani Abacha, you accepted the appointment to serve as the Chairman of the then Petroleum Trust Fund PTF. The general opinion was that you served faithfully in this capacity. Well done Sir! But you never asked Abacha to vacate office for you as your former subordinate in the army. Never! In fact that would have been a dangerous move, if not suicidal. Rather you served faithfully under your former junior in the army. Sir, imagine if you take on another job like the Chairman of EFCC or ICPC or NDLEA. Nigerians actually need you to serve in one of these capacities much more than they need you in the Presidency. Mere mentioning your name as Chairman of EFCC would drive many corrupt men underground. But you wouldn’t . Either the Presidency or nothing. So it seems! Sir, let us examine your service records. I consider your generation a very privileged one, indeed. In 1975 at the age of 33, you were appointed the Military Governor of the North-Eastern State, present day Borno & Yobe states. In 1976 at the age of 34 you became the Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources. In 1978 at the age of 36 you became the Chairman of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). Today the reverse is the case. Most Nigerians at age of 35 are still unemployed and still living with parents. Many are still not married. During your time you were already Governor at this age. One major reason for this unfortunate turn of events is that many elders like you have refused to voluntarily handover the baton to the next generation. Life should be a relay race where one runs his race and hands over to the next. In Nigeria many elders like you have run their races and are still holding on tenaciously to the baton. When are you going to handover to the next person? It is either you do it voluntarily or risk disgrace at the polls. In 1983 at the age of 41, exactly the same age as my humble self now, you became the Head of State. Most Nigerians in my age have not had the opportunity to serve, but we still remain committed to the Nigerian project. You should rather be graceful to God and to Nigerians for the numerous opportunities that have come your way to serve Nigerians. Others are begging for just one opportunity to serve. Sir, you have to accept the stark reality on ground that you have served your time already. That is life for you. You run the race, you handover the baton for others to run, you cannot hold on to the baton more than is necessary. As a former head of State you are already a member of the Council of State Meeting. You have every avenue to channel your views across. You don’t necessarily have to be in a frontline role, you can serve in an advisory capacity. That is still service. In conclusion, let me state that the greatest beneficiary should you emerge candidate of the APC would be President Jonathan. It is crystal clear that you cannot defeat President Jonathan in a free, fair and credible election, even in Katsina State. Sentiments aside, Jonathan would cruise to a landslide victory should you emerge candidate of the APC. In fact many political analysts believe that President Jonathan wants you to emerge as the APC flag bearer in order to secure a cheap victory. In fairness to you, any of your Children would pose a serious challenge to Jonathan more than yourself. I do not see Nigerians electing a 72 year old former Head of state to lead us in this Digital era. With due respect to you Sir, you belong to the Analogue age and therefore, will not fit in as president in this digital era. This is the blunt truth. Please do not enter the Guinness book of world records on a negative note. Losing four consecutive Presidential election would not augur well for your reputation. It is in your best interest to assume your position as an elder statesman and allow others to serve. Nigeria does not belong to you alone. It belongs to us all.” You have completely spoilt your otherwise fine arguments by continually advocating for GEJ. It shows bias. |

Politics / Re: Adamawa : Another Deft And Sagacious President Jonathan by Civory(m): 1:27pm On Oct 10, 2014 |
Ayor93:
Ngilari as the new Governor of Adamawa State: another political master stroke by the ever mystifying, deft and sagacious President Jonathan. PDP impeached Governor Nyako. They prepared the throne behind the scene for Ngilari by telling him to draft a questionable resignation letter. The PDP influenced impeachment panel absolved Ngilari of every wrongdoing and then told him to wait for a while so that Fintiri will be compensated for 3 months which is enough to greese his purse and enhance his political pedigree. PDP now sold a dummy to the ever shadow chasing APC into believing an election would be held. While the ever clueless APC were busy decamping in droves and wasting their time and money campaigning for the election, PDP now delivered the uppercut by directing the federal high court to declare Ngilari (a PDP stalwart) Governor of Adamawa State. Indeed, President Jonathan has brought sophistication to Nigerian politics. When you look at the ease and pure dexterity with which he dismantled Obasanjo and his cronies, destabilised the ever vociferous and powerful Nigerian Governors Forum, set up PDP Governors Forum, pushed aside and systematically silenced all the Governors that might rock his second term boat and finally achieved a historical and legendary second term endorsement. Wow! I suggest This Jonathanian Political School of Thought should be studied in Nigerian universities by political scientists Culled from Enyeribe Chikodi Azubuike facebook page obviously you have displayed your lowest level of understanding of the politics in Adamawa!
