It is believed that he said that Shaykh Ibrahima Niasse, the Senegalese tijaniya sufi leader, was bigger than Muhammad.

it's amazing that the Nigerian state thinks it's OK 2kill a man for airing an opinion that may or may not be right . It shows dt our govt and ('yes') northern pple r still in d medieval dark ages, like in d 14th century when Christian states killed scientists that dared to say the world was not flat and 4cornered.

I think I will start by trying to be Anthropomorphic, as it will bet express my heading.
Its really sad when insanity realizes that he has a mental disorder then he is as good as cured. The moment a people come to terms with their complex problem which often place them at loggerheads with their host communities the better for them.

I seem not to fathom how a tribe claim to have suffered humiliations and deprivation from other ethnic nationalities. This allegation should be consider very weighty even though it was not substantiated. Nonetheless, this aggrieved ethnic nationality needs to ask herself what is about it that could be responsible for the purported hostile acts of other ethnic nationalities toward it.

One problem I have with Chimanda is all her articles tends to quote Chinua Achebe, even when its evident chinua actions are wrong. The sane mistake she made, about his book "there was a country". Now she is trying to say that the Igbo's were murdered in early 1960's for political reasons? Who started the war? Was it the Nigerian Arny or The late Ojukwu ? I see Chimabda is biased. And she is just a staunt re-echoer of Chinua Achebe's belief.


I liked the fact that she related the massacre of the Ibos in different parts of the country before the civil war. However what I do like to ask her is this,

1. chimanda was there nothing that led to the massacre?

You can't deny that the tendency to dominate in another man's land which is being exhibited now by taking the Oba to court is what led to such. Tell me when you come back from court if the people of Lagos will still have a good relationship with the Ibos.


Chimanda while trying to play a neutral ground at the surface, is been biased deep down. I am sorry to say but if Chimanda spent her time writing this, she wasted that time. As this just further lowered NY respect for her as an internationally recognised writer. Novel is her thing not politics.

Just imagine how shez is spreading lies about 1960s massacre. Posterity Judge you.

blablabla....i think its people like u dt bring new meaning 2d term ignorant! If u dn't understand d point she made, pls ask a mor intelligent person 2explain it 2u. And as 4d events dt led 2d coup and subsequent civil war, both chinua n chimamanda told no lies.

Lmao....see bros cynthia o!

Letter to Buhari from the grave of the innocents –
By Bashir Yusufu
Dear General Buhari; I would’ve addressed this letter privately to you, but in the expectation that you may not receive it, I decided to make it an Open Letter, in the hope that you would stumble on it, read it and hopefully feel some of the pains and anguish that have been my lot. Having said that, permit me therefore to proceed with the rest of this missive from the grave of innocents departed.
Last night, while I was at my modest home in Katsina, relaxing and probably half-awake, I heard the voice of my cousin who was killed in the North in April 2011 during the post-election violence instigated by your loss of the presidential election. With bloodshot sad eyes, my cousin, looking apparition-like, was wailing “Gen Buhari, why why”. My cousin’s name is (or was) Mallam Yusuf Danfulani, a bright young lad originally from Katsina State, who was slaughtered in cold blood and set on fire by youths chanting “Sai Buhari”, like they are again now chanting in 2015.
Gen Buhari, in case you have forgotten, Yusuf was slaughtered in your name even though he never did any wrong to you, and even voted for you against Dr Jonathan. He lost his life just because the murderers you encouraged by your many hate speeches believed Yusuf to be from middle belt or southern Nigeria, most probably because of his bulky looks and brave, patriotic attempts to prevent the killing of an innocent Youth Corper, Ukeoma Ikechukwu. Even though he cried out in Hausa and Fulfulde, he was still not believed by those you (Buhari) managed to brainwash to see all non-Fulani Nigerians as conspiring to vote against you. In this very case, Yusuf voted for you but his ‘Sai Buhari’ killers never believed he did. Like you, Gen Buhari, the mob was baying for the blood of innocents.
If not for Yusuf’s best friend who was with him and was himself nearly killed, we would not have recognized his charred body that was burnt beyond recognition. And thanks to the same friend for recounting to us the little he could make out at the last moments of Yusuf’s life, the agony he passed through and the most important words he uttered before he gave up. It is the same words I heard him utter last night from the grave: ‘Gen Buhari, why why’. Yet, to this day, you (Buhari) have not cared to apologize or show any remorse, but you instead offered lame excuses for the bloodletting you had instigated, and still instigate. I now ask you this: Gen Buhari, must you always shade blood, like you started doing from 1983, to rule Nigeria? Do you recall how you killed Brigadier Bako in 1983 just so you could take power by force from Shehu Shagari?
General Buhari, Ukeoma Ikechukwu himself was reported missing that same day Yusuf was murdered by your supporters, and finally confirmed dead the following day when his charred remains was discovered in a hooded area. Apparently, your supporters had dragged him out of the open and tortured him before finally snuffing life out of him. Like my cousin, Yusuf, Ukeoma was very young and an innocent. Unlike Dr. Jonathan, they were not contesting against you. Yet, when they were killed, part of Nigeria was killed with them; the same Nigeria that you are now angrily campaigning to rule.
Yusuf and Ukeoma were not alone. Six other innocent Youth Corpers were also murdered in Bauchi, where you Buhari, polled 1,315,209 votes (almost 82 per cent), defeating Dr Jonathan who scored 258,404 votes and did not even hit the 25 per cent mark. The corps members were reportedly chased to a police station where they sought refuge. But the rioters, who were raving mad with bloodlust and chanting “Sai Buhari”, overran the station and murdered the young Nigerians in cold blood. So, Gen Buhari, as you can see from the Bauchi result and it’s aftermath, your supporters even shade blood when you win; still you have no qualms. Today, you are prancing around the nation, arrogant and angry as usual, behaving like you have already won the election; and thus setting up another bloodletting if you are not announced winner.
The story of Obinna Okpokiri is as heart-wrenching as Yusuf’s. The 27-year-old was butchered and burnt to ashes, in the service of his fatherland. Okpokiri’s own circumstances were as gruesome as they could be. He had run to the Corpers’ Lodge as the rampaging ‘Sai Buhari’ rioters targeted Youth Corper polling officers recruited by INEC for the election. As painful death loomed, the young Nigerians contemplated fleeing to the barracks. But they were not lucky enough. Your ‘Sai Buhari’ supporters caught up with them, slaughtered and set them on fire. Like Yusuf, these innocents are human beings and future leaders on the last laps of fulfilling their national duty before moving on to a bright future. But it was not to be because, in your name, Gen Buhari, they were slaughtered, sliced, soaked in petrol and scorched. Reduced to ashes in minutes and in the most callous fashion by those that are not better citizens or humans than them.
General Buhari, while you are now busy inciting another violence, please bear in mind that in 2011, your supporters turned violent in whole 12 northern states as they burned the homes, vehicles, and properties of innocent Nigerians, some of whom are also Muslims and Northerners like you and my cousin Yusuf. Your ‘Sai Buhari’ supporters also targeted and killed Christians and members of southern Nigerian ethnic groups, who were seen as supporting the PDP, and they burnt churches across the north. One particular attack in Bauchi stood out as most heart-breaking. According to Human Rights Watch, on April 17 in Giade, a rural town in northern Bauchi, ‘Sai Buhari’ mobs attacked youth corps members in the town. The Corpers, who were mostly from Yoruba, ran to the local police station to seek refuge, but the mobs stormed the police station. The mob killed the police officer on duty and burned down the police station. They raped two of the female youth corps members and then hacked them to death with machetes, along with five male youth corps members. In total, rioters killed ten youth corps members in that town alone.
A lecturer at the Nuhu Bamalli Polytechnic, Zaria, Kaduna State, described to Human Rights Watch how a mob of Muslims chanting “Change, Sai Buhari” attacked and killed several Christian students, a Christian lecturer and four Muslim students suspected of being PDP sympathizers on April 17: He said “Between 10 a.m. and 12 p.m., they entered the school chanting slogans and shouting: “Where are the Christians and Muslims that supported the ruling party?” They had painted their faces black and were shouting that they needed “change”, the Congress for Progressive Change campaign slogan. The mob had all sorts of weapons – machetes, sticks, and clubs. They started breaking the glass on the buildings. The students ran away but the mob pursued them into the staff quarters and they had nowhere to go. The mob beat them to death. The lecturer they killed was Yoruba“.
Finally, Gen Buhari, let me end this letter by asking you this question: When are you going to apologize to me, to Yusuf’s aged parents, to Ukeoma’s parents, to parents of all innocents murdered by your brainwashed supporters, to Nigeria and to mankind? And here is Yusuf again, asking you from the grave: “Gen Buhari, why why”.
Bashir Yusufu.

this is why i'll never vote GMB.

Hw does a coporal lure a DC's daughter? How old is d girl, wetin e use entice am? There's mor 2ds story sha, buh meanwhile, he's finished!!

Weak excuse....so GEJ's wrk is evident, buh wht of ur's? You will give 2million jobs ev' year, you will build refineries in d 6geo-political zones! D point of a political debate is 2let d people knw if u really hav a plan, hw u intend 2fund n actualize it, or if ure jst mouthing slogans n prayin d public dnt catch on till whn it gets 2late. Talk as they say is cheap; do we nw vote APC on d basis of a mantra?

Cut the man some slack joor, bokoharam didn't really start during his tenure, the whole scenario started during yaradua but not that worse, jonathan administration is just too weak to handle bokoharam.

do we all now agree dt it is ok to kill another fellow citizen because ure angry with d govt? Maybe we all should take up arms and match to ota farm and burn obj along with his whole family because phcn is not working properly! Ther can never be enough justification for d killings n mass rape perpetrated by this sect on women n children. Perhaps if this old man's loved ones were numbered among the victims, he would have a diff opinion.

Wht's ur point? I see a picture of someone in a car talking 2another person by d road.

. What does this lady's complaint have to do with politics nw? And when did Sen. David Mark issue that statement? Na wa 4u Ooº°˚ ˚°ºoO! And FYI the NCC has been doing an admirable job of acting on the public's complaints against telecom companies. Bear in mind that these companies r not owned by santa klaus,hence d radical marketing to continually meet targets and profit margins. Pls lets nt politicize everything, GEJ or GMB these r jst men and nt messiahs. Ure ur own saviour if u want 2leave poverty behind!

Keep up the good work nafdac. The spirit of dora aka "ada nafdac" lives on!

Kristie prophet AY jst told me dt i'm d 1 for u

How do we know he was beaten for wearing an apc hat? Just because his face looks smashed up,n he's holding a hat, it doesn't indicate evidence or intent. How r we sure this picture was taken in nyesom wike's village? Pls look before u leap into conclusions.

It is foolish for anyone, group or religious body to belive that nigeria belongs to them alone. No matter how much you believe in your candidate, your vote is all that counts and not your threat. No one is a slave to the other in this democratic setting, and no one has the monopoly of madness. As buhari has been attacked in the media, so has the president also, even more so. Thats politics, nothing more nothing less. If you choose to become a blood thirsty criminal for a man who could careless if you ate three square meals today, that's your own undoing not nigeria's. After the post-election violence of 2011, the result still remained the same,it didn't change anytin apart from make more widows, orphans and childless parents. So keep muttering your threats while the ignorants in your society egg you on, it'll not help your candidate or your cause. TINA (This Is New Africa)

They can continue making reckless statements for the time being as they enjoy immunity under GEJ. When change comes to Nigeria on may 29, they will be arrested and prosecuted. Payback period is just around the corner.

Whr wer they whn a man pastin GEJ's posters in d north had his hands cut off! Wht hav u done 4d pple on d street whr u live or evn ur village, dt has given u d right 2abuse a man dt defied d govt and slept in d bush 4d sake of his pple!?

Abeg we all need it to happen. So far, it has been a campaign of accusations n counter-accusations instead of issues that pertain to our country n economy.

ayukdaboss:
Na wa O....How many times will you people be told that the first document was a "Statement of Result" not the Certificate??
The template used for the Statement of Result is probably used in the Katsina School for two different Examinations. WAEC/NECO..Anyone not being recorded will be crossed out. That's the reason the NECO was crossed.

I hope you are aware that Cambridge confirmed that they had the 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 grade in 1961??

bro GMB is not the first person to misplace his certificate, so his statement of result will not be diff frm others. The certificate/statement is a shoddy job @best.

When look closely, some of the idiots accusing her of not writing proper English made mistakes with what they wrote too.

See this one. Did the Ministry of Education, Katsina ever claim that they conducted the WASC examination in 1961? Besides the second document containing the list of students who sat for the examination in 1961 carried the logo of Cambridge University. Where did the Ministry claim they awarded Buhari a certificate in 1961 or is it possible that this lawyer too doesn't know the difference between a Statement of Result and a Certificate just like these silly TANoids?? Taking Buhari to court is not a problem, but the problem comes where you start using false stories as your defence.

Your moment of fame will soon be over Mr. Lawyer and by then you might have made a fool of yourself.

my broda no vex but the result appears to a fake. And its really disappointing dt GMB wud b a part of ds. Its supposed 2b a document bearing 1961 results, but NECO is also written on d top of d certificate. And d result grading include B3 n E8 whn those grades were introduced in 2000.
