In my books, Buhari is a pretentious anti-corruption
fighter. The trajectory of a man's journey in public life
matters. For the following reasons I can not vote for
Buhari.
He is an oligarch who does not believe in equality before
the law. The way he jailed Lateef Jakande, Jim Nwobodo,
Ambrose Ali, Pa Adekunle Ajasin, Chief Ayo Ojewumi on
cases that had no foundation and allowed Awwal Ibrahim,
the then Niger State governor, who was arrested in
Heathrow Airport in London with 14 million pounds
sterling and several millions of Niara and dollars to be
under house arrest is my evidence. He also allowed Shehu
Kangiwa, Sokoto State Governor who conducted and
supervised the famous Bakolori Massacre of poor peasant
farmers whose land were appropriated without
compensation to remain under house arrest.
Ayo Ojewumi became blind as a result of his
imprisonment over false charges and died shortly after.
Prof. Ambrose Alli also became blind as a result of this
false imprisonment. When he died, he had only one
undeveloped plot of land to his name. Pa Adekule Ajasin
was never the same after his eventual release and
remained sickly for the rest of his life. When he died, he
never had any property anywhere in the world except the
one he had built from his sweat as long term teacher and
school principal in Owo township.
He put in place a retroactive law that killed three men,
innocent men in my book, by public execution. He left
untouched an alleged well known drug baron in Ibrahim
Babangida who later overthrew his government. He jailed
Ndukar Irabor and Tunde Thompson of the Guardian on
stories that were factually true under Decree. He had told
the Nigerian journalists then that it did not matter
whether the story reported was true or not, if his regime
did not like it, the writer would go to jail.

He supervised the smuggling of 53 suitcases filled with
cash through the MMA against the protests of General
Tunde Idiagbon and ironically, Abubakar Atiku, the then
Director General of the Customs who later became the
Vice President and a compromised politician himself. This
smuggling of the suit cases were supervised by his ADC,
Col. Mustapha Jokolo. He jailed Fela Anikulapo -Kuti on
trumped up charges under emergency law which prompted
the sentencing judge to confess that he was ordered to do
so and apologised to the late musician. It was Buhari's
administration that said it has "decided to deal with this
Fela problem once and for all."
He convinced all the northern political leaders against
allowing the National Identity Card program because
according to him, this would unravel the myth of Northern
population majority. He is an Islamic fundamentalist, the
Bin Laden of Nigeria, who told his northern followers never
to vote for anyone who was not a Muslim. 8. He is a coup
plotter. He has never been able to account to Nigerians
what he did with the 20 billion Naira of the Petroleum
Trust Fund of which he was the chairman under Sani
Abacha. He has not been able to point to any project that
he prosecuted outside the Northern Nigeria with the so-
called trust fund.
He was in full support of all the atrocities of Sani Abacha
against the Nigerian people. There is no single record of
his criticism of Sani Abacha during those dark days when
Nigeria was on precipice. It shows that he is a patriot of
convenience and as such unfit to lead the country. Buhari,
as part of his tribalistic practices placed President Shagari
under house arrest inside a palatia mansion in Ikoyi while
he locked up Shagari's Vice, Alex Ekwueme in Kirikiri
Prison.
Shagari is Hausa/Fulani like him while Alex Ekwueme is
an Igboman. Ikemba Emeka Ojukwu, another Igboman
who returned from 13years exile just a little over a year
then was as well locked up in Kiri Kiri Prison by
meanhearted Buhari.Up till today we are not told what
was Emeka's offence. Busari Adelakun died of ulcer
because Buhari refused him to be taken out of prison for
immediate medical attention.The then Governor of Ogun
State,Bisi Onabanjo suffered similar fate which we were
told led to his untimely death. Buhari ransacked the
house of our late sage, Obafemi Awolowo and
confisticated his International passport. Which civilized
democratic society would elect the likes of Buhari as
President,the same individual who overthrew an elected
President? Never!
Plus Buhari having Sam Mbakwe in jail, went for one of
Mbakwe's wives. He established himself again for what he
was/is letting Mbakwe receive in jailhouse news of the
death of another of Mbakwe's two wives. One (I can't
remember his name now; Odenigbo?) also died in jail.
Buhari's henchman and sponsor, CPC governorship
candidate for Kano State, is Mohammed Abacha, the same
person that had/ran a personal killing squad, coordinated
the killing of Kudirat Abiola & attempted to kill Ibru and
also stashed money in underground tanks, all less than 13
years ago, Nigerians have very short selective memory
shame!
Buhari discriminated against persons from other ethnic
groups/faiths; and that as PTF Chairman, he employed an
overwhelming number of Fulani/Hausa/ Muslim people at
the detriment of other groups and concentrated PTF
projects in the North. If in doubt read El Rufai's testimony
where he wrote about Katsina boys who used the money
they made at PTF to bankroll Yar'Adua's election in 1999.
Buhari is unforgiven. When he "took over" by coup in
1983, even remembered an article written a very very long
time ago by Bisi Onabanjo ('The Mallams are coming')
and a later one in which Onabanjo wrote that people
should watch out for that "gangly officer from the north"
after Buhari gave a no holds barred speech at some Army
function where he was reported to be very openly pro
Fulani and pro Islam to the exclusive of all else and also
talked about termination of democratic rule. For that,
Onabanjo got one of the harshest jail terms and
treatments. Buhari intolerance is worse than Obasanjo's.
When he was adopted as the ANPP's candidate on the
night of the party's Primaries without prior warning to the
other candidates and a few of them protested, Buhari got
up and made a speech that those people must be
disciplined. I subsequently saw him on BBC's "hard talk"
and he frightened me and the interviewer with his archaic
and fundamentalist intolerant views. His understanding
and articulation is very much in doubt.
The evil genius, IBB and his crew similarly ran rings
around Buhari. On the 10th anniversary of Abacha's
demise, Buhari said that Abacha stole nothing from
Nigeria! Despite millions of Dollars recovered from banks
around the world and the Abacha family signing a formal
agreement to return over $1 billion dollars, Buhari still
said that Abacha's stealing remains an unproved
allegation!!!! Why? Because Abacha set Buhari up like an
emperor and let him use oil money from the Niger Delta to
develop the North without supervision or questions.
Buhari snubbed the same Nigerians he now wants their
votes by refusing to appear before Justice Oputa Truth
and Reconciliation Panel. Despite the fact that Buhari
knew how inportant reconciliation is to the stability of
democracy. Buhari has never apologised at anytime.
Buhari executed Lawal Ojuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe
(29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26). To put it quite plainly,
one of those three – Ogedengbe - was executed for a
crime that did not carry a capital forfeit at the time it was
committed. and At the time Ogedengbe committed the
crime it did not carry that punishment. If we must live as
civilised citizens we must go by the rules. Article 11.2 of
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights reads: "No one
shall be held guilty of any penal offence on account of any
act or omission WHICH DID NOT CONSTITUTE A PENAL
OFFENCE, under national or international law at the time
when it was committed. NOR SHALL A HEAVIER
PUNISHMENT BE IMPOSED THAN THE ONE THAT WAS
APPLICABLE AT THE TIME THE PENAL OFFENCE WAS
COMMITTED.
Killing people with retroactive laws is not the civilised
thing to do and for as long as we will have people who
refuse to see the truth only because their heroes are
inching to rule when they have not purged themselves we
will continue to wallow in misery. If Nigerians reward
dangerous, insensitive, dishonest, mean, cruel, partial,
egoistic, religious, fundamentalist, conscienceless human
being like Muhammadu Buhari with the presidency of
Nigeria with his kind of track record, then why do we still
wonder why Nigeria has not and will not make it?
I can not in good conscience support Buhari's candidacy
on the above grounds. I wish we have intelligent people
who know what democracy means. I wish we have
civilized minds. However, I am 100 percent sure that
Buhari will never again rule Nigeria. For the good of
Nigeria, vote any other candidate, but SAY NO TO
BUHARI!!!
