THE NIGERIAN LEADERS AND WHY WE DONT NEED BUHARI NOW AND MAYBE LATER.

(I am presenting my case, present yours)


It may be shocking to you that I do not like President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. On the other hand, I vehemently detest Buhari to the core. Infact I hate both candidates. But a person of Buhari is not what I can vouch for. He is irredeemably and religiously divisive. He is one individual that havent waken up to current realities, and I am afraid to say that his recent political prominence is an architect of yoruba tolerence. I dont think Dr Awolowo can win CPC ticket in Kano State.


If the worst system of democracy is better than the best military government, why did Buhari truncated a democratically elected government of Shehu Shagari and put us to one step backward? No one has answered that question to me. I want to get an answered from the man that is supposedly going to come to our rescue in the same democratic era he abolished.

On the issues of trends Nigeria is having, we certainly do not need Buhari now, maybe later.


Let me quickly remain us about the unqiueness that endeared me to our former leaders, and why Buhari do not follow in that order.


(1)The former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, has two attributes I love so much. It is absolutism and despotism. And with that attributes, he was able to nurture and groom Nigeria to challenges of democratic dispensation, knowing fully well that Nigeria is such a stubborn country full of rascals.



(2)After the time of Obasanjo, it was Shehu Musa Yardua. He was a detribalized gentleman full of good will to the nation. Infact, if not for the influence that might derail his ambition, assuming he lived much later, he could have emerged as one of our best president. And so his attributes became that of a man with goodwill and good agendums.




(3)When he died, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan took over, and in him, we saw a man of good heart, democrat, peaceable politician, meek, tolerant, unique and unautocratic. He established Nigerian democracy. Adversaries were having a field day criticizing and sabotaging his effort. He had neither fought back nor attacked with government machineries. Some of you mistaken his meekness to weakness while being oblivious that some machiavellian approaches are at his disposals and yet was overlooked, but rather chosen to follow the part of democratic process. He has been written upon in dailies on most staggering vilification devoid of apt democratic precinct. Some of those scathing remarks were shamefully unconstructive and spurious, yet he maintained his peace, coupled with utterence of his opponents which were equally risible and unfounded. If not for Boko Haram and the work of moles and saboteurs, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is unmatched and unquantified with any leader in the history of Nigeria.

(4)About Buhari? He is an individual full of one idea and approach; to fight corruption and imprison offenders. Let me remain my readers that Nigeria do not need a fight to corruption now. Because such undivided parochial approbate to fighting corruption, if it were to start, Tinubu the kingmaker of Buhari would be the one to go down first assuming a genuine effort are put in place without a compromise.


The leader that Nigerians need at this moment is a leader that would bring unity. Like I said earlier, Buhari is bringing a sword not unity. Sword that would divide us further. He is coming to make an enemy and establish war. Nigeria is submerged in peccadilloes of corruption which Buhari himself have underestimated. It will start in APC and it will start in PDP which, he, cannot finish even in four years. The only problem with politicians are that they're used to telling lies to sell themselves to the electorates.

We need a refined leader with devotion to Nigeria's unity and ethnic diversity. We cant keep deceiving ourselves for too long thinking that anti graft bravely is the ingredient we need in a leader. Anti corruption war had always been a story since 1960's and now it's turning to the story for the gods.


There are demons in Buhari and it will show if and when powers are given to him. And those demons are autocratism, nepotism, religionism, sectionalism and absolutism. This is my case against Buhari

[b]The era of boko haram is about to ease off. We are entering into another phase and, we the South-South, have sworn that the Ab@kis would see hell when any of their Sons or daughters are sworn in to rule us. Better give it to yoruba cowards now, because the yorubas shamelessly allowed a dictator, coupist, serial loser and religious bigot to penetrate their territory with an overzealous Born-To-Rule Mentality and snatched an APC ticket with boldness within their watch on a party they struggle with sweats to form. It is better than giving it to those cattle rearers that wounded the same yoruba, killed Awolowo and Abiola, stopped the construction of lagos rail line etc. No more gworo-chewing-almajiri-cow-loving hausa illiterate ruling over the most ambitious intelligent Igbos and the most gifted and diversified Ijaw nation. No way, buhari can never rule me and my oil. We will see and Nigeria shall burn! Boko haram was your weapon, we are also preparing our own lethal weapon to make your government ungovernable Mr Coupist. Indeed Mr Dictator you shall witness the real he-goats, monkies, cattles, dogs and baboons soaking in bath blood[/b]

[b]OPEN LETTER TO NIGERIAN NORTHERNERS



Dear Northerners,




When kidnapping, arm robbery, thuggery and ritualist were rampant and straining in the South-East, the Governors nor citizens of that geo-political zone never blamed the President-in-charge then which is President Umaru Musa Ya'radua. I can recollect how the city of Aba was under a siege and inhabitable because of act of kidnappings.



The Governor, Theodore Orji, swung into action and arrested the situation before it gets out of hand. This was subsequently remedied by the military demise of a notorious figutive and criminal called Osisi-ka-nkwu(the wood that is greater than a tree).


It was a messy situation no doubt, but the lesson here is that nobody blamed the people at the helm of affairs. This is too childish and parochial. We were able to fathom that there is an enemy within. And with that mentality, we fought it.

Likewise in Anambra State when ritualist were having a field day, maiming and disturbing economic activities, the former Governor, Peter Obi, took it upon himself to ascertain the situation by marshalling a panoply of weaponry to confront the thugs.




Every nation is without a challenge and Boko Haram insurgency is not insurmountable, but what it could take is to shift from that mindset that a pogrom is being conducted on you people. Nobody can blame northerners for Boko Haram insurgency. Its an ill wind that blows no one good. It is our earnest prayer that the situation gets solved. But, equally, a challenge here is the mentality of the victims which irresponsibly blamed a sitting president that they help to vote in being the one killing them, for what purpose?

Atleast there must be a reason for every action as much as these. It is rather irrational and profound to stoop to low to believe such connotation of facts that is bereft of incontrovertible veracity.




To believe that a sitting President is culpable for the crime perpetuated in any segment of the society is a brazen show lack of trust, nonchalance to investigative and scientific approach to issues. Rather it even made more sense to believe that the oppositions are culpable than the Presidency, or aint you people aware of how this political skirmish started?. If the Government destroy Nigeria, who do they rule? How can you put your house on fire and not got burnt. So my point is to arouse our sense of Judgement in other not to sound irresponsible. The effort of the Government is to unite Nigeria and move us forward and not to divide us; atleast I know that it does serve their purpose since the profligates would have a field day doing what they know how to do best. I am not working for the Government neither do I intend to work with anyone of them. My own zeal is about principle, respect and non-incorrigible disposition to some partly misconstrued issues which is, accusing the wrong one ignorantly.

Thanks and Long Live Northern Nigeria

Long Live Arewa Nation

Long Live Muslims




Long Live Nigeria[/b]

MuguliciousMUGU:
Together we shall move corruption to the next level - theodore Orji

Ochendo the action Governor

OMG it looks like a party gig till I saw "Churches"?. The daughter is looking Snoop Dog daughter. No difference. Pls parents raise your daughter well, now I can see that being a pastor is not even a guarrantee

arsetalks:
You and I know thats not close to the truth. If not what is the agiation for Biafara all about? Some call it search for equity, but you and I know the plain language is "the search for a chance of ruling the country".

You know it deep down.

[b]Igbos stood for equity. The hausa gambaris are threatening jonathan because he is from the minority, but our anger is that Nigeria is not only meant for these illiterates. GEJ must continue till 2019 or we will make this country ungovernable. Let ab0ki kill ab0ki and blame Jonathan it is not our business [\b]

atleast I'm happy that Islamic inscription was dusted off

hmm meanwhile GEJ TILL 2019

But for me and my family, I rather suffer and continue to suffer under GEJ PDP's Government than rejoice under APC Government. Suicide might be an option if BUHARI wins this election comes 2015. God knows my heart
