Politics / Re: Buhari Should Be Charged With Perjury And Stripped Of His Ranks by FrankC3: 6:06pm On Jan 20, 2015

Records available indicate that Major General M Buhari applied to join the military as a Form Six student of the Provincial Secondary School, Katsina on 18 Oct 61. His application was duly endorsed by the Principal of the school, who also wrote a report on him and recommended him to be suitable for military commission. It is a practice in the NA that before candidates are shortlisted for commissioning into the officers’ cadre of the Service, the Selection Board verifies the original copies of credentials that are presented. However, there is no available record to show that this process was followed in the 1960s. Nevertheless, the entry made on the NA Form 199A at the point of documentation after commission as an officer[b] indicated that the former Head of State obtained the West African School Certificate (WASC) in 1961 with credits in relevant subjects: English Language, Geography, History, Health Science, Hausa and a pass in English Literature. Neither the original copy, Certified True Copy (CTC) nor statement of result of Major General M Buhari’s WASC result is in his personal file.[/b]

I hope this explanation will put to rest the raging controversy surrounding the secondary school credentials of Major General Mohammed
Buhari as it affects the Nigerian Army.

This is very embarrassing. This man lied his way to the Officer cadre. His applied to join the Army from form six in 1961 and claimed to have earned Credits in 5 subjects and a Pass in one without submitting the original copy of his credentials nor the certified true copy for verification.

Basically, the man lied his way to the officer cadre and was promoted as having possessed WAEC. This is very simple, it takes less than 7 days to process confirmation of result from WAEC if he is not and has not been lying while he was busy jailing other Nigerians for 105 years and flogging others for corruption. This man has been a living corruption for decades.

rusher14:

For clarity, How many credits or A's imply a school certificate?

Not that I am interested in back and forth but PASSING WAEC exams with 5 Credits is different from HAVING a WAEC certificate. WAEC certificate is not Secondary School Certificate of attendance. I have both actually, so I know the contents.

The problem here is Buhari has sworn to an affidavit with INEC that the information filled out in his form with INEC were true. Part of what is meant to be true is that the clearly stated qualification in the INEC displayed documents was WAEC. The question is this, does Buhari has WAEC certificate as he claimed to have? Forget Punch's abridged reportage, probably out of bias. See a section of the statement below:

In fact, someone in the Press Conference told me that The Army spokesman passed around a letter from his school principal in 1961 telling the Army that he believes that Buhari CAN pass some subjects. It is there in black and white.

It seems that the least Mr Buhari is guilty of right now is perjury, which is lying under oath. He filled out a form with INEC and put his qualification as WAEC but it seems that with the below, he does not have WAEC qualification. This is no more about whether he has equivalent qualification or not because he swore to an affidavit with a court that ALL the information contained in the form he filled in the INEC are true. If there was nothing holding him down before, that affidavit finished him off.

Of course, Buhari's supporters will disagree.

Please the burning question in my mind is who are they deceiving..in Bob Dee voice who is misleading our president.

Since the news fly in that Jona will be coming, different security men as been patrolling the major road and am jus wondering why is my president not free among his own people? Why will a leader need a security men to campaign? Please let our leaders learn everything that has a beginning also have an end ..above all power belong to the people.

If you are truly a Nigerian, you should be more worried about why any candidate and his supporters will have their campaign posters burnt unless guarded by armed men. That is what patriotic democrats should be worried about. You forget that it is so easy for the same President to enforce a similar strategy in his own stronghold using state apparatus as tool.

You sound more like some confused people who heap all the blame of any Boko Haram attack on the President and reserve only excuses of poverty for the common enemy themselves. Something is fundamentally wrong with your world view.

If elected Nigeria’s president in 2015, former military leader, Muhammadu Buhari, will not immediately go after past leaders, politicians and officials, who stole the country dry and committed other offences, his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, said Monday.
Mr. Buhari will be more focused on solving Nigeria’s many problems left behind by the former leaders, APC chairman, John Oyegun, said.

This will be a good step
But, why is it coming just now


Why did the government wait so long before it adopt this strategy

Why did it had to come after election was done, why not 2years ago or last year.
Why wait till after election

So, all the ministry account won't be checkmate for fraud before the elections

That's why some ministry could donate almost 500,000,000 for his campaign.

I am familiar with the back-end of this system being written about. Politics aside, this particular project, just like IPPIS, was completed in record time. It takes far longer time to deliver such project with similar scope of capability even in private sector.

We are seeing a fundamental change in the understanding of our challenges and renewed government commitment to tackling them. Connect this to the FOI bill and see how well government has done in the fight against corruption. The fact is that there can never be another Maina of the pension scam again. There can never be another Bode George again. There can never be another Adenike Grange again. The system that made their acts possible has been eliminated without much noise. Whatever anyone does, even in the next 100 years, the system will retain the record and this can easily be declassified by the system and made available to Civil Society Groups in response to FOI requests.

The jury is still out on the economics of jailing people indiscriminately in country like ours that is plagues with populace corruption.

Philosophically, is a jail term meant to be a punishment or for rehabilitation of a social misfit? If you ask a Buhari, the poverty of his philosophical base for policies will make him tell you that it is to punish people, but that is not why jails are built. That is why some societies call it 'Correction Facilities'. That will be too much grammar for Buhari.

Morally, do we really have the right to beat the child for spilling the milk on the floor? The damn milk was just on the floor! The right thing is to keep the milk away from the child before punishing the child when he goes the extra mile to spill the milk. Buhari wants to retain the location of the milk on the floor and taunt any child that dare spill the milk with prison terms.

As someone once said, it is not the idea of Rtd. General Buhari's age that is the problem, it is the age of his ideas. He is stuck in the 80's.

This is going to knock out a number of banks. To be honest with you I don't like the new CBN governor. He lacks foresight and is very parochial. What Nigeria should be doing is targeting diaspora transfers that can be in excess of $45billion a year through special instruments. Our human resources abroad make more foreign exchange than oil and gas makes for us locality and also many things are possible if only the man were really bright instead of bringing ideas like stealing N65 from cross ATM transactions.

Actually, this is a Government policy that predates the CBN Governor and he MUST be commended for seeing reasons to continue pushing it.

This directive is aimed at providing single collection box for government revenues to ease account management, streamline the process, tracking, taxation and most importantly, reduce the giver and taker contact that make up corruption. Every sane Nigerian should applaud the government in this effort. It means that when you import your cars, you will make your payment for port clearance at your chosen bank probably via online transfer or POS, the fund immediately reflect in this electronic wallet linked to ALL banks and within the control of the CBN. This way, the responsible agency only have the responsibility of ensuring that funds are coming it under their names in the account. Funds can only leave the electronic wallet with the approval and knowledge or identified personal and everything is tracked electronically. This is the real anti corruption war.

And for the records, no serious country, even some unserious countries (including Afghanistan and Syria and Sudan) allows MDAs to maintain accounts with commercial banks. MDAs are the execution tools of the government and the CBN is the banker for the government. This is how things should be. It seems that people are so used to aberrations for far too long.

I agree that other policies should also be developed to facilitate the funnelling in of diaspora funds into the country, though the country is not doing badly in foreign remittance from relatives abroad.

GEJ has set out to deceive gullible and foolish Nigerians.

Go and read about the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that was enacted in the US in 2002.

Many people in the US are scared of stealing public funds because they don't want to go to jail.

Why is our case different. The system will be strengthened by human beings. What makes him think it won't be bypassed?

Fraud still occurs even in the biggest firms in the world even though they "have strengthened their system". The only way of check mating it
is to send corrupt individuals to jail so they can serve as a deterrent to others.

Let's use our brains abeg.
You can't defend your paymaster on this one.

You probably know nothing about Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Mentioning that Act to support you logic suggest so, what Sarbanes-Oxley did was to institutionalize the anti corruption struggle in Wall Street even further by encouraging strengthened internal controls in the form of structures, systems and procedures. If you know about Enterprise Architecture as a discipline, this act propelled what was once a back office IBM research into how to rationalize IT spendings to align with business both in public and private sector spendings into a mainstream discipline.

Are you even aware that the Enron and Tycon prosecutions were done not with Sarbanes-Oxley Act but with a pre-dated legislations. Actually, if you know about Nigeria financial landscape, the CBN released a guideline sometime ago to push for a practise that cut loses, improves efficiency, reduce corruption and improve digitized core, all insipired by what Sarbanes-Oxley stood for. Accenture helped the CBN develop that guideline.

Of course, the masses may not see the massive institutional fight against corruption because we have a government that reasons well above the pedestrian cloak and dagger approach and may disappoint our thirst for blood of defaulters. My position in anti-corruption fight is that we need at least 10 years to change the way public business is done, reduce or eliminate the giver and taker contact and ensure that institutions and processes are stronger at any point in time than the person occupying what ever office. It is already happening, for those a little close to the government circle, IPPIS is no small deal. The government is fast digitizing the core of government financial operations. It is my opinion that punitive measure should come in gradually from 2017, but should be majorly targeted at anybody that tries to circumvent the system. Will our fence scaling law maker be able to take up this challenge and run with it? At at today, I don't think we have a reasonable cyber laws that can catch civil servants that try to compromise the system. We must work on that!!

With the position of APC highest ranking officer on this, I am afraid that the worst is starring us in the face. The reality is this:

1. That the basic requirement for joining Nigeria Military in 1962, as it is today, is still an O'Level certificate.

2. That Mr Buhari did not have the basic requirements for enrolling in the army but 'somehow' got himself enrolled with his knowledge as an adult.

3. That Mr Buhari rose through the rank of the Military, an employer that he should not have joined had he declared that he did not have the employment requirements. Basically, Mr Buhari kept the information on his true qualification status from his employers until he grasped the reigns of power at the highest level.

4. That Mr Buhari's employers - the Military would not have sent him for capacity development trainings had they known that he did not qualify to be with them in the first place.

5. That Nigerians believed Mr Buhari to be a qualified Military officer when he took over leadership of the country by the barrel of the gun, not knowing that he is not even qualified to be an army officer in the first place by the virtue of his lack of requisite qualification.

6.That under Mr Buhari's leadership, Nigerians were flogged openly for indiscipline, not knowing that the man that gave the order is guilty of not only sacking the democratic government in place, but also for not even being qualified to be where he was.

7. That Mr Buhari lied to more than 150 million Nigerians that he had the minimum education to be their President in 2003, 2007 and 2011, lied to the INEC and lied to the Military.

8. That Mr Buhari lied under Oath that his certificates are with the Nigerian Military, it seems however that Mr Buhari does not have even the photocopy of his own credentials.

9. That Mr Buhari and his APC party would want us to neglect all these facts and still vote in Buhari to come and fight corruption.

The PDP is also interestingly quite about this. It could either be that they are so sure of defeating Buhari in 2015 and would not like to rock that chance just yet or they have another game up their sleeve.

Whatever the APC like, they can tell themselves but this is not looking good. It would be bad enough to say that a former President of Nigeria did not have secondary education (I think an equivalent of High School) certificate. It will also be bad to find out how exactly he was able to maintain this lie through his military career.

APC candidates for the presidential elections are economic illiterates. They do not understand the implication of certain things they say. I say so because of the funny promises they make:

1. A Buhari government will rechannel subsidy savings to feeding primary school pupils across the 36 states of the Federation. How? Is it even the responsibility of the FG to take over primary education and not to intervene via UBE? Where will this fund come from?

2. APC government will go for full privatization of the power sector by selling off the TCN. Really? Do they even understand why the TCN was retained? And what is the weakest links in the power chain of this country? Generation, transmission or distribution? Some experts define strategy as maximizing the utility you derive from your potentials. How strategic is privatizing the TCN, meaning that the entire power grid is in the hands of the foreigners. What happens to National security and how will this policy produce immediate turn around at the distribution end when the generating capacity is not even enough for the existing installed capacity of the transmission infrastrucuture?

3. Paying 5000NGN to former NYSC members. This is even very funny. How do you generate this extra fund? How much economic sense does this make when placed side by side with productive financing initiatives like Graduate Internship Scheme or the YOUWIN?

I think Buhari and the APC are very focused on consumption of the national resources, no ideas on how to build up. What happens if the oil production plummets? On one hand, they talk about socialism while on the other hand, they talk about capitalism. I am really getting confused as to their economic position. What is their position of national debt, how much debt is ok for us? They seem not to even understand the problem. How exactly can they hit the ground running?

Lol...CCNP my foot. What you did was lookup yolasite.com. You can only carry what we call a reverse check on a subdomain and that's if you have the ip address. What you did in your bid to sound intelligent to your fellow muggers here was to spoof the web address of yolasite.com and claim its balewa college carrying out the update.

Enough of schooling you. If you even had a ccna to start with it. It would be good to return that certificate to Cisco. You are not worth holding that cert.

This is ridiculous!!

Look, my friend, serious minded people who are accomplished in different domains do visit here.

In your bid to sound intelligent, you just shot yourself in the leg.

Carrying out a whois check on a domain name and substituting the information for that of a subdomain is intelligent to you?

Let me help you break it down. what you did is like pinging www.blogger.com which is owned by google and substituting the whois details for www.lindaikeji..com. Claiming linda updated at so so time while it was Google that update their site.

Both are different entities even though linda's website is a sub domain of blogger. Do a whois check of balewacollege.yolasite.com and not yolasite. Which is not possible.

Come back and give us the true pictures not the lies you posted here.

What exactly are you talking about? How do one sustitute a ping result with a whois check result? And th how does your claim invalidate his point that the blog site was just hurriedly created for disinformation purposes?

You should be worried that you are trying to defend a man whose major campaign mantra is anti corruption with cooked facts.

If FFK`s appointment is bad to GEJ reelection campaign, then common logic suggests that APC should be celebrating it. That is not what I am seeing here. What folks are telling us now is that if FFK attacks Buhari, SW will refuse to vote GEJ. Really? The same SW that we were told will be swept by GEJ? Was it under contention before?

Their fear is palpable and understandable. You may not like FFK but he fights hard and dirty. He is the kind of guy you will not like to face in an argument. This is actually what they are afraid of.

Next 2 months will be interesting.

So you watched what Osinbanjo said on Channels

That guy should return back to the ministry

Instead of him encouraging citizen wealth creation , he is advocating for citizen wealth sharing in the face of dwindling national wealth.

Buhari and Osibanjo lack basic economic sense.

It is pathetic, my brother. I thought he will be the game changer. He knows nothing about macro economics, wealth creation, employment generation and other big issues in big markets like sustainability, water resources management and conservation. I think he should just pick up one of such topics, drill them down using mind mapping strategy with artisans and let them guide him on how it affect them, force himself to believe passionately in them and just speak about them. The whole world is watching our Presidential candidates and this guy may make them review the average IQ of a Nigerian downwards.

lobatan.What happened to our non-alligned foreign diplomacy.This Palestine thing, like apartheid, will end someday. It's a matter of time. What is in it for Nigeria endorsing this pro-American position?
I would have loved it if the Nigerian government had allowed Nigerians to debate it.

Do you even understand the non-alligned foreign policy position of Nigeria? For years, Nigeria has maintained good relationship between Isreal and Palestine as a result of this policy. Even at the height of India Pakistan palavar, Nigeria was friends with both countries. That is what non-alligned policy really means and it takes tack and diplomacy for our leaders to navigate this tight rope. We abstained from voting, as always, thereby keeping our heads up.

People should understand that there is no morality in international relations, what exists at UN table is interests. Using every opportunity for the interest of your people. And you can see how world leaders were reaching out to Nigeria to take a position on this issue, yet we remained strong and committed to our own foreign policy. That is what purposeful leadership does.

I know that a Buhari would have been angry with the Isrealis and betrayed our foreign policy position that has survived for years. You can hear his position being echoed by his supporters here. One question for them is, if GEJ votes in favor of this resolution, what is in it for Nigeria? Will Palestan buy our crude or will they help us fight Boko Haram? You see how emotional APC supporters and Buhari are and how they will ruin our foreign policy if elected?

Politics / Re: Buhari's New Year Message To Nigerians by FrankC3: 1:17pm On Dec 31, 2014
Ok, let me summarize the few things I have learnt from Buhari campaign:

1. Buhari's major campaign thrust is to fight corruption. This is very confusing because most people that I consider corrupt are the same people that Buhari consider clean. You ask for examples, Amaechi, Tinubu, Ikuforiji, Abacha among others. His party chairman even said that they will forgive all past looters! So why then are they angry with GEJ for pardoning Alams, a man that was arrested, prosecuted and jailed and served out his jail terms.

2. Buhari seem to agree with the President on the removal of fuel subsidy, if he and his VP candidate are on the same page. My problem is that his VP aspirant said that they rather use the subsidy saving to feed primary school pupils across the 36 states of the federation instead of using it to fix bad roads and upgrade our infrastructure. I mean, does this make sense even to you?

3. Buhari's claim that one of his first few actions as the commander-in-chief will be to stabilize the oil price. I am totally lost here.

4. He has said that our economy will be secured with our armed forces. This is even more confusing.

This guy may not fully appreciate the full impact of his positions on core issues that he will be confronted with from day one. He comes across as a man that has not thought about the responsibilities of the office in the context of 21st century leadership of the largest economy in Africa. He seem not to believe in the ratings of S & P, Moody and other renowned rating agencies, the only international agency he believes in is Transparency International and only when the rating of the country he wants to lead is poor. When it improves, his minions call it paper achievements.

I don't know what he plan to do in agriculture, health, education, power, industry and commerce that is different from what GEJ is presently doing. His only answer to every question seem to be 'kwarupshon'. His VP candidate even sound worse so far. They should understand that we have far gone beyond the stage of criticism of the incumbent, that is the job the Lai Mohammed is good at. Elections is about 45 days away and he has not been able to say exactly how he will be different from GEJ.
Politics / Re: Jonathan’s South South Got Half Share Of N1.6trillion Capital Vote by FrankC3: 12:47pm On Dec 31, 2014
I thought that Amaechi's song all along was that Mr President has refused to site any capital project in the SS in general and Rivers State in particular? APC should get their propaganda straight. Has Amaechi's position changed?

Lagos to Kano rail project alone is worth $8.3b. Abuja to Kaduna rail project is worth $500m. Abuja to Lokoja express way is being revived, Lagos Ibadan express way is undergoing total reconstruction, not renovation. So are many other high worth projects across the country. It will be very difficult for APC to transfer the ethnic bigotry tag from Buhari to GEJ, it doesn't just fit. It will be as unsuccessful as the attempt to paint him as a dictator, it doesn't just work. Try other areas, like 'kwarupshon'.

While at it, tell us whether Buhari agrees with his VP candidate that they will not reverse the subsidy removal policy (meaning that they agree that GEJ was right to have removed it in the first place). If he agrees with his VP candidate on that, do they also share the same idea that they rather use the subsidy savings to feed primary school pupils across the 36 states of the federation (constitutionally under the care of State governments save for FG interventions via UBE) rather than spend the savings on transforming our rail ways, tackle infant and maternal mortality and other areas that need government intervention?

I need to clearly understand the policy thrust of Buhari. The only problem is that he has not really thought about what his economic policy will look like, he just want power to 'pight kwarrupshon'!!

What is Buhari's view on these things


1) Resource Control

2) Fiscal Federalism

3) Privatization

4) Political Federalism

5) Decentralization of Nigeria

6) Restructuring of Nigeria

6) Institutions giving detail account of their financial/other activities to the public through their websites/panels for public scrutiny every 3months.


Which are the fastest route to

I) economic diversification,
ii) citizenry prosperity
iii) political stability
iv) reduce corruption


These 7 points are the basis of True Federalism which can help Nigeria become a Super Power and a first world Nation.

He will simply 'pight kwarrupshon' and all those issues will resolve themselves. That is what his online image makers are telling us.

APC is so clueless...I watched Osibanjo this morning on Channels TV telling the whole world that their government will rechannel the subsidy savings to providing meals to primary school pupils. So pathetic. The guy does not even understand that the success recorded in the rail sector, road improvement, agriculture and improved indices in infant and maternal mortality rate was powered majorly by funds from the subsidey savings...his position is that they will just stop, in his words, 'those small projects' and focus on feeding primary pupils. Their message to the world is that Buhari will stabilize the oil prices and (mind you, they will not reverse the subsidy removal) but rather, rechannel the savings to feeding children. Consumption is the word!! No ideas on creating values for the future. The States will the best First School Leaving and WAEC performance indices in this country does not feed their pupils, so what is powering this policy thrust? So Buhari and Osibanjo prefers free meal for children to providing infrastructure? I don't just understand it!!

It is terrible. The easiest way the PDP will beat APC is to lure them to discuss policies, I thought that the VP candidate of APC will be better, but he is as clueless as Buhari.
