Don’t vote Buhari out, Martin Luther King’s Jrn family charges Nigerians


ON MARCH 27, 2018

Martin Luther King Jr’s nephew, Isaac newton-Farris Jnr, has enjoined Nigerians to unite and join hands with President Muhammadu Buhari to complete the work he begun in setting Nigeria on the right path and building a country every Nigerian would be proud of. Farris made the call in an interview with newsmen in Abuja after a get together in honour of the visiting Luther family who are in Nigeria.

The luncheon was organised by the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, Mrs Abike Dabiri- Erewa to mark the first Black History Month in Nigeria. President Muhammadu Buhari receives a plague from Ambassador Erika Bennett and other members of African-American Human Activist Late Martin Luther Jnr during the conferment of The First Black History Month National Black Excellence and Exceptional African Leadership Award 2018 at the Council Chambers in Abuja. “My advice to Nigeria is this., I know that a lot of Nigerians feel a little displeasure with President Buhari moving too slow on some of his reforms. “I will counsel Nigerians to say give this man the time he needs to do the job that he is doing.

He is one of the most legitimate leaders that the continent has produced. “And he would if you all just stick to him I assure you he is going to make Nigeria a better place,” he said. He said that though it was not easy to say as a visitor but Nigerian would benefit if they supported him to complete his work According to him, I know for instance what your citizens will say to me, he will identify the corruption but won’t do anything, he says until investigation is done. But that is the proper way to do that. “You know fortunately he is an honest man but if he would say traditional just decide in his mind what is corrupt and not corrupt and just taking action without a process what will happen with the next guy that comes who might not be as honest as he is. “So you need a process. So it is not about the person or personality but it is about the fact. “So

I will just counsel Nigerians, I know, I am a visitor it is really not my business but be careful before you vote this man out of office,” he said. The Most oldest person in the Luther family, Dr Naomi King, earlier called on Nigerians to rise up to their responsibility and vote for the candidate of their choice “I want you to take the responsibility and vote when the time comes for the candidate of your choice because you have a voice and your vote is your voice. “Remember that if you love God, you love your neighbour and have in mind what the almighty God has done He will give you the desire of your heart,” she said.


Also speaking, Dabiri- Erewa , said the Luther family was in Nigeria to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the death of Martin Luther King jnr “As they celebrate the 50th anniversary in Nigeria which is the first of its kind, we want Africans in the diaspora and Africa to work together for the development of the continent. “So it is a major step forward, it is our desire to work with our sisters and brothers of African descent to move the continent forward,” she said Dabiri-Erewa said that their coming to celebrate in Nigeria showed their belief in the country and the leadership quality in Nigeria According to her, the visitors appreciated what Buhari was doing especially in tackling corruption.

So they had to bring these ones on hire purchase to come and fool us. They are a disgrace to everything Martin Luther King Jr stood for! Spits!

Martin Luther King Jr fought for the emancipation and discrimination of blacks in the US but these ones are saying we should remain in our shackles... Nonsense!

HajimeSaito:
Maybe the man is trying to repent from his past sins. As for the military coup of 1966, atrocities happened on both sides.
Aguiyi Ironsi's death was unfortunate but he was not the only one who died a gruesome death in those difficult times.
It all just goes to show that Nigeria should be allowed to just quietly dissolve itself and let everyone go his own way.

Dont mind BMC oooo... it is when someone attacks buhari that they will remember his sins. They did same when OBJ spoke against buhari and now they are doing it against Danjuma... but fear no let them try am against IBB.

GoroTango:
Fu^^k out my mentions swine

Moronic simpleton of sub-Neanderthal. Most of you from the North are a disgrace to God's creation, a people stuck in 16 century. Bring it on... i am ready to get banned.

wristbangle:
I can never forgive PDP and APC. Don't be deceive bro. These people can go any length to seek the masses empathy. Their mentality has always been a use and dump strategy. I would never give in to devilish act.

the sad reality is that you are in population of few Nigerians that reason well.

LAFO:
Do they fear being poisoned?

likely...

Jaguntemmy:
NA CURSE KILL AM?
HE IS AFRAID OF NIGERIA COMMING TO RUSSIA FOR WORLD CUP THIS JUNE.
HE WILL RESURRECT IN AUGUST

STORY... are u sure Nigerians are not the maker of this news?

GoroTango:
It is on record that General Danjuma failed to keep his promise to Ironsi and Fajuyi when he gave them his word that they would not be harmed. Im talking about the night of 29th July 1966. So far he has succeeded in becoming Nigeria's richest, retired army general. He is a disgrace to the north

story just irrelevant talks to divert attention. We are talking about now and present this one is talking about things he wasn't born at that time. Go sleep... Buhari coocks suucker

NairalandSARS:
I have been fine.
Please check your mail.

Bros, what is your problem on Nairaland? What is it exactly? I operate numerous account here and you have sent your message to more than 4 of them and which is a clear indication that 100s of people are getting same PM from you and of course same emotional facade and concocted story.

I still have the emails to the last 2 which you replied using same story. I warned you last time . If another of my account gets a PM from you again, I will blast you publicly and I will do it all over Nairaland. Money is not easy especially in this buhari era, you come up with same story every now and then which has been going on since last year and this a new year you have not stopped. I am not sure this is verifiable and how true you are.

I am a man like you and I hustle. I expect you to do same rather than this tactics you have chosen. There is nothing wrong in asking for help but when you decide to turn it into stream of income by begging under the guise of emotional facade, then you should be put where you belong.

I know you will not listen... just so you know, I have over 20 accounts here. The day I get another PM from you, you will hate ever trying such.

Now here is my advice:

Come out publicly and state what you want so that people can help you out once and for all, if what you have been spreading by email is TRUE/

OR

Get a job!

Medics007:
Hi everyone, please I need a help from people who struggle with stage fright and won. Facing the audience is a very big headache for me, which seems to be very impossible to overcome, so whenever I have to do it, I must take drugs to control my heartbeat, which I want to stop taking now. Please I need advice on on how to easily overcome stage fright without using drugs. Thanks in anticipation.

I used to be like that, one reason why I wasn't able to develop a career in singing despite being hailed as someone with a very good voice...

The truth is what you think that your audience are thinking doesn't exist! They don't care really.

nairavsdollars:
Igbos are the most disunited people in Nigeria. At times, i regret coming from that region. WE REJECT BUHARI 100%

That guy igbodefender is not igbo

Omeokachie:
1. Buhari is not "the north"

2. 5% cannot "make sure..."

3. Where are these "Igbos" with "growing support for Buhari"?


'Anything' but Buhari come 2019. We are tired of killings in the country.
Life first before selfish political ambition that benefits nobody but a little clique of politicians aided by gullible suffering masses.

that guy is not igbo

Madam, these women are models, and the reason why they are models is because they are the tiny fraction of black women that are attractive. Some of them are even African Americans and Carribean. They don't represent the vast majority of black women, let alone Sub Saharan African women.

Post your own picture let us see. Or post pictures of Nairaland females who actually represent a microcosm of the regular west African society. Post pictures of regular women on the streets of Nigeria. My bet is that if you post these sort of pictures, what everyone would witness would be mostly masculine looking women with ugly facial features. Like I said in my previous thread, I have lived in Nigeria and I've visited parts of Europe and South America. Finding a pretty girl on the streets of the typical Nigerian city is like finding a needle in a haystack, despite the fact that Nigeria is very populated. The same can't be said for cities like Berlin or Rio.

You have a problem.

josh123:
biko lets see ur pic if u think op is wrong

if you are a man and you think like this, I pity your future.

TheBabaDon:
God forbids that he gets second term

My brother, I an afraid he might win.

Blue3k:
You are to dumb to comment on these issues. Instead of critically examining projects you are boring me with idiotic emotional rants. It's sad you guys are like this. How did Yoruba stop Akwa Ibom from building anything you mentally inept child.

I repeat you are not from Akwa Ibom. If that pains you to much drink Ota pia pia

Akpabio, during his times, was the only one who worked so much during second term. Mind you, I am not from Akwa Ibom but I don't joke with people from that region.

Akpabio tried and the roads he did were highly standardized. Whether you like it or not, he did well. I don't care what you think or feel.

What is current governor doing? Is it anywhere close to what Akpabio did?

It is people like you that brag only to do worse when given the chance to govern.

I repeat, you are not from Akwa Ibom you mentally derange child.

Blue3k:
It's not impossible with right deal. Tax incentives, saftey and OGFZ could sway their opinion. Building stuff nobody asked for is just dumb. Only Nairaland clowns and Akwa Ibom state governor try to bully people with non existent directives.

you are not from Akwa Ibom as you claimed. From all the words poured on this thread, it is now clear that the Yorubas don't want other states to develop.

The way you guys are defending this thing instead of being happy for Akwa Ibom people speaks volume.
This is sad, so sad.

deomelllo:
1. You are a comedian because Akwa Ibom is vastly richer than Lagos state.

2. For so many years under Akpabio, Akwa Ibom with just 5 million people passed larger budgets than Lagos state with 20 million people and sometimes even over N100 billion larger.

3. For several years under Akpabio, Akwa Ibom budgeted billions for the construction of Ibaka deep seaport, but he did not clear even ordinary bush or build an ordinary fence.

4. By the time Akpabio left office, he completed and commissioned only 1 football stadium, 1 cinema, 1 library, 1 uncompleted hospital, some roads and 1 flyover.




...but Fashola was commissioning major and grand projects left and right.

It's all about leadership qualities, not just money

have u been to Uyo?

DDeliverer:
We never learn in this country. Every failure is an upgrade of an earlier failure. We keep talking about the same problems over and over and over again...

Sadly, this would continue for another 100 years.

My mentor Fela saw all these things some 30something years ago...

I was forced to search the web for his songs and download them.

SoulSearching:
The contruction company could be owned by the government. For example Akwa ibom Construction company, Akwa ibom Energy, Akwa Ibom transport corporation,etc. just like there's Tokyo Electric and Tokyo Construction. they would handle and maintain all construction projects .The workers would be working for the government.
frankly,the equipment are easy to purchase by the government. all they have to do is employ and train the engineers,welders,mechanics,architects,surveyors ,etc.

The question is will they do it?

Arondizuogu:
I hate Nigeria and Nigerians.. we seem to be stupid and bring God into everything. In fact STFU. This woman stole the nation's wealth and you are here writing nonsense. What did she do to merit an oil bloc.. ask questions why our collective wealth was squandered and you are being foolish.
PS: sorry for using bad words but you deserved it..

no need to be sorry. When u read comments of most Nigerians, you have no option than to give up hopes on making the country great.

Yankee101:
No one would have given her that oil field if they thought it was viable. She was given a bad 'prospect' in the deep offshore when we had not yet fully even deployed offshore drilling in Nigeria. Dem give her marshland/wasteland.

There are oil field owners who lose money. Go and check. I can buy an oil field right now in the United States if I wish. But will it be viable? Most likely not. But that was the gamble she took. No one wants to talk about that risk.

When they finally hit oil the FG tried to collect it back under Obasanjo. She went broke fighting it to the Supreme Court. So shut your mouth if what you see and critisize is the final product and don't know what pressure the ingredients had to go through to become a beautiful cake. Shut your mouth!

She did not buy it. It was given to her.

SoulSearching:
Even when the Akwa ibom seaport is completed it wont be active because Nigeria doesn't export anything .

I saw on the other thread Anambra state building a $2 Billion dollars airport. your guess is as good as mine

I have nothing to say about airport and like some people a
Opined in that thread, it m
Is likely mirage to steal

SoulSearching:
Nigeria is a poor country when you consider the GDP per capita. Nigeria does not export or even import enough to need more than one seaport .Nigeria has not achieved it's full potential

I don't agree with u. Are u not tired of the traffic in Lagos? I think every sane person should support anything to decongest Lagos.
