A British author wrote something similar before our independence from Great Britain.

The poor Briton forgot to predict the destabilizing influence of Fulani born to rule mentality into the whole equation.

That's why the whole World is laughing at Nigeria's attempt to fight corruption!
It's like Trump fighting corruption ONLY among black people, while ignoring whites who are richer and actually in better position to be corrupt and are really more corrupt.

GavelSlam:
He has the right and the support of the Nigerian public that votes him in.

It's all well and good when legislators use their privilege to pad the budget but wrong for the President to wield the stick on corrupt individuals.

Is it well that cabinet ministers and other executives are stealing right under Buhari's nose, and yet he's playing politics with corruption by fighting only his political opponents

Mr. Oga paid trumpeter of Buhari's crazy ideas, how come violence in Libya jumped Niger Republic, Chad, and other nearby countries to land in Nigeria only when Buhari took over power?

If you can't answer the simple question, please go preach your stupid logic to people who don't know what the map of Africa looks like.

Buhari 1983 Vs Buhari 2015

History Being Repeated?
.
In 1983:
.
$1 = N 1
£1 = N2
Volkswagen Beetle = N1,400
Foods were in abundance
Kids were in school
Businesses were booming with vibrant economy and people were gainfully employed.
No illegal arrest or media trial.
Rule of law was maintained.
.
On 31 December 1983, he and his criminal gang struck with the excuse of tackling
widespread corruption and within few months,
.
$1 = N15
£1 = N40
Volkswagen Beetle = N8, 000
Kids dropped out of school because their parents couldn't afford their school fees anymore.
Businesses closed down.
Foods were rationed as people queued up for essential commodities.
Many Nigerians lost their jobs because the economy collapsed.
Innocent Nigerians were arrested for free speech and human rights violated with impunity.
The Constitution was suspended.
.
He blamed Alh. Shagari's govt for this mess.
He blamed corruption, yet he jailed Dr. Alex
Ekwueme (the Vice President) but left
Shagari (the president) in his palace.
.
But when another gang threw him out, and within few months, Nigerians started smiling again. Our kids returned to school,
food was in abundance again, Nigerians got their jobs back and the economy was revived etc.
.
In 2015:
.
$1 = N175-190
£1 = N289-320
Cars were affordable with local
manufacturers smiling to the bank.
Food was in abundance (at least a bag of rice was N7, 000)
Kids were in school
Businesses were booming with vibrant economy, no illegal arrest or media trial.
.
On 29 May, 2015 when he was 'jega-ed' into power:
.
$1 = N315-510
£1 = N550-610
Local car manufactures shut down their plants due to harsh economic condition.
Famine was unleashed on Nigerians and a bag of rice rose to N22, 000/27, 000 while
minimum wage remains N18, 000.
Kids dropped out of school.
Businesses closed down, millions lost their jobs and inflation is in double digits.

Just like in 1985, he's blaming corruption and his predecessor for the same mess he created within few months of assumption of office.
"YOU CANNOT PUT A CROWN ON A CLOWN AND EXPECT A KING."
Very instructive!

And like before, Buhari would rather give excuses, deny facts, and claim ignorance of what's going on.
Deja vu!

Anyway, waiting for BMC members to land!

Abaribe for president!!!!

No wonder , they said education is haram!
If you see how much was allocated, budgeted, and received by this "school" you'll be impressed.

Imagine She Was Your Sister

She is our own sister, yes our dear sister in the Lord!
Non-christians will not understand, unfortunately, they're using this a joke. It's not a joke.

Foolish president, we already know who's behind the crimes: you.

Yes, where is our Joan d'Arc

Oga, there was an African ruler I know who wasted 2 years of his people money, opportunity, and chance for development, and you know what's ironic, that ruler wants a 2nd term!

Emycord:
HER name is leah sharibu. away from all the distractions so that we can forget her, we will not how come everyone is silent. where is can ? where is muric? where is the church ? and all other girl child ngo(s) etc. or is it that she has been free and no one told us about it ? is she still alive and well. she does not deserve prayers no she deserves freedom. prayers did not get her mates out. negotiations, money and actions did. so save your prayers. God has heard enough for her already. she needs all those acts that got her friends out now more than prayers. free leah sharibu.

to the rescue

Joan d'Arc of Nigeria!

Because Lai said it, I don't believe it!

Soon, they will deny, deny, and deny the story.
Then, they will attack and attack the newspaper .

Presidential terrorism

springer:
When you see an Igbo man that is a muslim MONEY is involved.

Yes money, drugs, harlotry, etc.

President blames power contest for killings
President blames PDP for failure to perform
President blames the rain for the hot weather today
President blames his mother for bearing him late
President blames his wife for being in the other room
President blames service chief for allowing killings
President blames GEJ for his weak erections
President blames OBJ for the heat in Sahara desert
President blames Fayose for erosion and flood in southern Nigeria
President blames Libyan for killing unarmed farmers all over Nigeria
President blames Wike for black sooth in port Harcourt
President blames Danjuma for Cameroonian attacks on Taraba
President blames everybody for everything
President does not blame himself for anything, never!

sarrki:
How does this correlate to the topic at hand

Because those innocent Igbos were massacred, because they were "guilty "of committing the crimes organized by Nzeogwu.

@poster
When 5 Igbo soldiers staged an unsuccessful coup, remind us what happened to 3 million Igbo civilians who had nothing to do with the coup?

Defending against Fulanis is not enough, Nigerians need to push back against the gains they have acquired through violence since 1900.

Does he at least speak French?

Who's that on the floor?
That's usually where El Rufai sits.

@OP
I don't see the bow. All in your limited mind
However, I see a smart, educated, and talented lady coaching your illiterate president how to present his points to the AU.

Speaking up rather late is the only mistake Oyedepo made.

He should have spoken up as a reputable christian leader when Bridget Agbahime was assassinated in Kano,
when Mrs. Balgogun was murdered for early morning preaching in Karu, Abuja,
when Olu Falae was attacked and almost kidnapped by Fulani herdsmen,
when innocent farmers, minding their own business on lands they have cultivated with their families for thousands of years were attacked by Fulani herdsmen in Benue, Enugu, Edo, Ekiti, Taraba, and now Plateau.

Where was Oyedepo when Christians were bombed in churches in Abuja and Maiduguri?

Keeping quiet and praying that marauding Fulani hersdmen who gain by killing is wrong, and actually against Christianity.

sarrki:
Can you see how foolish this people are?
They are dangerous

They are epidemic to global peace

Yes oh, the Fulani people are dangerous!

LIFEisSIMPLE:
Dont allow yourself be decieved. The real population of the Igbos is been hidden by the Nigerian government

That's what I tell them. CIA, KGB, MI 5 all know the true numbers, but only Nigerian official census and National Bureau of Statistics will give you these fake numbers meant to be used to share money!
Until census is correlated with tax per head, our numbers will always remain political!

No matter the amount of fire burning, nor the number of innocent civilians massacred in their sleep, nothing, I say nothing will stop Buahari from traveling from Nigeria, and pretending that all is well.

7 million is more like the population of Onitsha. Never mind the "official" census putting the number at 450,000, and giveing them only 20,000 PVC.
We know the game!

Can't wait for them to take over and rename Gowon's hometown while he goes around doing 'stupid Nigeria prays'!

Buhari has to go to AU to declare them terrorists?

False heading
