Kobojunkie:


If we are to be honest in our dealings, at least we focus on the truth rather than, again, manufacturing truths from thin air. I cannot comment on the man's personal life, guess what, because I NEVER MET OR KNEW HIM. I can however, and boldly speak of the man's record, and that is all I can do. Even the good book urges that we DO NOT BARE FALSE WITNESS.

This "do not speak ill of the dead" mentality is NOT BIBLICAL and so cannot be claimed to be rooted in the Bible. The Bible even condemns those who choose to respect the dead more than the living; more than their God.

Where, oh where, does this attitude come from? And why does it seem Africa is it's door step?

Oh how i wish these "well wishers had sense like you.

Kobo dont hurt them na- their peanut brains aint capable of thinking for itself yet.
abeg cry more for the useless man

~Bluetooth:

there are many double standard folks here.the highest you could do is to CARE-LESS about them.life goes on

Thats the problem with Nigeria, everybody wants to ignore and not face whats wrong here.
These double standard people are the same one suffering daily.
These are the same people we need to stand together and help this country!

How can we change Nigeria with a bunch of weak minded people.
A Useless man dies and now they are heaping praises.
Abeg- some people are even thanking him for his 7 point agenda that he has done SQUAT on!

Haba- if no one will try to snap them out of this slave like mentality,
I'm not going to keep quiet.

This is why I dont come on poltics often, people declare they want a change but they dont really want it.

GBAM.

Infact, your nxt drink is on me.

Ill hold you to that

Kobojunkie:

ROFLMAO!!!



Where does this "Don't speak ill of the dead" mentality really come from? ROFLMAO!!

Me sef I was asking the same question last night. This is goat- like mentality.

mama-gee:

We are not being hypocrites, we are just being a little more respectful because he's dead.

And, it doesn't make sense making a caricature or fun of the dead especially someone who died recently.

Look up hypocrisy- abeg the same people who castigated him? why does Death make a difference?
Respectful or stupid by posting he was a good man and all that rubbish!
Its like nigerians enjoy being beaten down.

Im not making fun of him, I support his death!.

Speak the truth ALL THE TIME; Stand for justice even in death !!! That makes you a better person that they are, dead or alive!

Kobojunkie:

You become like them when you resort to eulogizing them in dishonest ways. Speak the truth ALL THE TIME; Stand for justice even in death !!! That makes you a better person that they are, dead or alive!

If Yardua was alive again you people would start crying and bitching as before.
Buncha Hypocrites!

May the GOOD LORD give to him what he deserves, Amen!!

Why did he die on the day TRUTH prevailed over LIES

Two Vanguard News headlines captures the significance of yesterday and largely Yar'adua's life as President.

"Yar'adua dies"
"FG drops charges against Ribadu"

A lot of attrocities were committed on behalf of Yar'adua. These attrocities were enough to make a healthy man sick. It is no wonder it has sent a sick man to an early grave.

Yar'Adua took office in 2007 in a country notorious for corruption and gained accolades for being the first leader to publicly declare his personal assets when taking office — setting up a benchmark for comparison later to see if he misappropriated funds. But enthusiasm for his presidency waned as time passed and he made no headway in fighting entrenched corruption.

kobojunkie: May the GOOD LORD give to him what he deserves, Amen!!


By the way, what about the souls of the many Nigerians who never got the same treatment the man at least gave himself - treatment that helped keep him alive for as long as he lived? What about those souls? Do they also RIP and are they happy to say RIP to the man who allowed them go to their graves with no quality healthcare?

AMEN!!

Everybody is singing eulogies now yet they are the same people who have been abusing him and his wife from time immemorial on Nairaland

Very incompetent.
You should have spent your life herding sheeps and cattle.

RIP

i feel sorry for the millions of nigerians who have been denied responsible govt for ages and their mothers. i feel sorry for the millions of nigerians who have died from poorly equipped hospitals and doctors on strike while govt officials travel abroad to treat themselves.

i feel sorry for the millions of nigerians who have left their country to live as beggars and 2nd class humans in other countries including ukraine, malaysia, sudan(sudan Shocked) yemen etc

i feel sorry for those who died in incessant violence

i feel sorry for . . . i have no more sorry left to feel for many other nigerians who deserve it . . . . and they are not in govt
Copied from Toshman.
I also feel sorry for Thousands who die daily on the Abuja Lokoja express way. I feel Sorry for Patients of cacner who Turai used to dupe Nigerians and the International community with her fake NGO after recieveing billions in donation, not even a foundation has been laid at the internatioal cancer center

Word.

He got what he wished for.
He was a greedy àsshole. Heck, he was the sole beneficiary of the 2007 electoral heist, he was the most incompetent president the country has witnessed and greedy incompetent and tribalistic mofòs dont deserve condolences.

SimplySTUPIDchic,lol bishh u must have lost your mind. Who poured sand in your womanliness? Is yar adua now a saint coz he is dead? Bishh shut your two faced backside up. Proper case of monkey see monkey do. All of a sudden it has been fashionable to render praises on him in death. I will be impressed if you defended him like this when he was alive but I guess u had to go with the flow. Tell me a good reason why he deserves no criticism in death and i'll tell u why Abacha deserves a national monument in his honor. Anuofia!

Good Riddance to Yardull! Rubbish!

How dumb are you?
Im more irriatated by your constant swaying than anything else.
He dont agree yet you feel he should pay me back - LOL
So you even understand what you type?

I pity you and your kind.

Psalm 50:18 When you saw a thief, you consented  with him, And have been a partaker with adulterers.
Proverbs 29:24 Whoso is partner with a thief hateth his own soul: he heareth cursing, and bewrayeth it not.
Jeremiah 7:9-10 Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye know not; And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations?

Pweety4me:

@Cous Plat will u give it a break b4 saturday! i don't want u 2 lose your voice o!

I hear ya cous But seriously Saturday is shopping day  

190:

Nice speech there plat
You deserve more, ~
i would have word with him!

You sef you are not ashamed?
Wasn't I the one who alerted you?
Yes I knew but so did 9-10 other members.
You knew I asked him why he covered his location.
He said it was "his dream school"
Foolishly I believed him, but you have the guts to open your mouth like you are actually doing something.
You were THIS close to being swiped, and instead  of thanking God you are here running like a faucet.

You are no better- switch situations and I know you would be doing the same- You and your comrades.
I can do nothing more than Pity you and the type you all live.

Proverbs 29:24- The accomplice of a thief is his own enemy; he is put under oath and dare not testify.

i 190 would ensure that he returns whatever money Plat spent back to her) or if he cant i would personally return every Bit of money Plat spent (i would easily do that) Just to ensure that there is peace once more

tpia.:

the exact thing i would have told gabry to do [this was running through my mind when responding to her posts] but i no wan put mouth for that area, hence i kept my suggestion to myself.

Sigh- Tpia you still dont get it. I am not looking for any type of refund whatsoever, what is gone. I am doing quite fine financially.
Gabby speaks on that point, because she knows all that transpired, and firmly belived that I should recive something back, even though I insisted that I want nothing, especially dirty money. I'm way better than that.

Gabby has not said anything since because she wanted to forgive him as long as he served retributions-
What kinda person would I be advocating that? For him to turn around and gip someone else?
I dont want that on my head nor my life.

Now there are people who run behind the scenes and parade here in pretense. You are not one, and since I have no fault with you.

It is my fault for getting upset a people who  run behind the mess and now is donning a nun robe.
There are a lot of things that cant be explained- and I owe none involved an explanation.

I can and never support fraud, and I will never purposely attack someone unwarranted.
Jealously (over a woman) has never been my trait.

But I do have an issue with personal attacks and I'm working on it.  
I would give my shirt off my back if someone needs it, and I work hard for everything I got, I ask for nothing more than honesty, respect and decency.

If saw something and kept quiet and it happened to someone else, what kind of person would I be?
No my dear- some people get it, but even after I write a thousand pages, some will still doubt.
I'm not worried about it anymore.

Travelista:

Plat, please, try and let this go after the interview (if it takes place. I have a feeling our guest of honor will be too tired or will be in mourning over his close family friend, Yar'Adua. You know, since he's doing it big in Abuja.  ) You have a career that doesn't look kindly on such associations and you seem like a very bright, caring person. Even if you have lingering feelings for this guy, IGNORE them. I've been there and I know it's hard but for your sanity and future happiness, never look back; no good can ever come from a relationship like this. Those that mock you aren't your friends; turn a blind eye and keep it moving.

Sis, I hear you. Thanks a lot.

Pweety4me:

u aight cous?

Yeah I'm cool. Thanks for asking, how are you?

190:

add me on FB, immediately!!
im waiting!

Rejected and blocked.

Travelista:

Man, we women are our own worst enemies; I pray some of you never experience the hurt and embarrassment that girl did because, strangely enough, some of you seem to be rejoicing in her pain. This is exactly why I'm careful of the kind of female friends I keep because one minute they're laughing with you and the next you have a knife in your back. I'm kind of laughing at one of you ladies because you don't realize that your fingers gave away your true feelings; typical bird behavior.

Anyway, 190, you're a tool. I don't know how old you are (or even care) but you're beyond immature. If someone called my friend a scammer, trust and believe, you wouldn't catch me making half the jokes and insults that you've been bandying around this thread. You get the serious side-eye for that and I don't believe for a second that you don't know about your friend's proclivities; you're beyond sorry for that and for still trying to get at Plat. If you were serious, you'd be making moves behind the scenes to squash the beef but you're up front like a prize fight promoter; if this is what it means to be a man today, for shame and may God help us women.

I won't lie and say this saga isn't entertaining but we have to look at the serious side of things: both TheSeeker and PlatinumNK have had serious allegations levied against them and anyone with an atom of a future would try to exonerate themselves. [size=14pt]To be frank, I don't blame Plat for ringing the alarm; what if her employers found out about her relationship with a scammer and that she was sending out fake bank details to a school on his behalf? She could have been fired and/or faced prosecution and for what?[/size] As for TheSeeker, he's been accused of being a 419er and has had his name (and alleged aliases) flagged at a couple of embassies; if I were him (and innocent), I'd be heated and would address the issue ASAP.

Plat, please, try and let this go after the interview (if it takes place. I have a feeling our guest of honor will be too tired or will be in mourning over his close family friend, Yar'Adua. You know, since he's doing it big in Abuja.  ) You have a career that doesn't look kindly on such associations and you seem like a very bright, caring person. Even if you have lingering feelings for this guy, IGNORE them. I've been there and I know it's hard but for your sanity and future happiness, never look back; no good can ever come from a relationship like this. Those that mock you aren't your friends; turn a blind eye and keep it moving.

Dear I don't know you, but I haven't been so touched before. As long as one understands me, then I'm fine.
Tpia- Ping me.

pheonixChi:

thank you this is what i dont get about our ppl. we accept all manner of corrupt and mediocre ppl. this is why they continue to steal, kill and further demolish that country they ppl are exactly like their leaders

Times like these make me wonder if Nigeria is actually fed up with our current state.

Thank you Yar'dua. You've done more for Nigeria in death than you could have done in life. Long Live Goodluck Jonathan.

Sad loss and may God console his family.

For those hypocrites who are now wishing him rest in death when they never gave him rest in life, I can only say Hypocrites you all are.

You cursed him while he was alive and now you praise him in death.

Nigeria , may God help us .  AMEN.

kkkossy: Nw dat presido is dead, PHCN SHOULD GIVE US LIGHT!

yes na-- switch the power they were using for his life support and give it to Nigeria!

Remii ]Everyone would die, including the haters and mourners on NL. Today we are saying whatever pleases us about a departed man, we should purse and think about what would be said about us too when our own days come.
May the soul of the departed rest in peace. He did his bit let those left behind do theirs too.[/quote]
Oh pls!
When you or I die, none of us is going to hear anything that is said.
Buncha Silly supersticious Hypocrites!

[quote author=Princemuba:

Thanks funnkybaby and also all the good people here who knows that they will die and that everyone will die unlike some fools making foolish comment about Yar'adua, He is a human being like us and we need to to pray to God for him to grant him eternal rest instead of criticizing him and insulting him, We'll all die!!!

Go and weep for a useless man- See your life Nigeria!

And all of a sudden he is a ''great man'' niajas geez talk about schitzophrenic minds

@platinumnk, you need not speak that way, you should at least  show some respect for the dead, for no man knows when his hour will come,

Will saying something I clearly dont wish for the man change anything?
When people die they dont come back, period.
Does Yardua's spirit fly over the world to see whos talking about him?
abeg! Who cries for the innocents in Nigeria!
You people have misplaced priorities?!

commot from this madness! I'm sorry, I'm not brainwashed.
Yes I mourn.
Yes people we love die.
But for this useless thief and all the other thieves - I spare no pity - in this life or the next

toshmann:

Ms Factbox,

when i observe people like you, i understand, quite sadly, why they say, every nation gets the govt it deserves. perhaps we deserve silly govt in nigeria bc of people with your thwarted and slavelike attitude. first of all, you abused me and abused me but did not make any valid points about what i posted.

this was a man who was in charge of a govt that saw hospitals abandoned while billions of our money was stolen and taken abroad. hundreds of thousands of nigerians have died in the past 2 yrs due to poor health facilities in our hospitals and yet when he was ill he went abroad for treatment. he didnt even think of developing at least one hospital at home where he will get treatment(and then others may benefit from it too. people like james ibori were free, people like aandoaka were in charge of justice, the nation was left without a leader for months and the vice president (another possible thief, we'll know soon) was not even allowed to take care of events. his wife was put in charge, total anarchy reigned and violence broke out here and there. what kind of pity would i have for this kind of person?

we begged him to resign and treat himself with out looted money he refused. stood firm  to destroy the country. this is what happens when you sit on people's progress. if the only way that people will be free is by your elimination, so be it. and if the only way to be eliminated is death, why should i cry for such persons?

your signature talks about God. what did the Bible say? when the wicked perish . . . . . the people rejoice.

what did my signature say?  . . . truth hurts
if you dont like it . . . . go f-ck yourself

You know what. . .I was actually looking for that verse before you said anything. I think it is in Joshua.
May the rest of the corrupt leaders quickly find their exit as well.

suprted:

abeg stop all that superstitious nonsense- don't disrespect the dead my foot.  if i disrespected your monkey behind when you were alive, i'm going to do it when you were dead.  smh at all these imbeciles trying to change history because someone died, like as if it changes anything.  

if you like cheer my death.  like i give a poo.  

+1 abeg dont even feel sorry for the kids- while thousands of children die from inadequate healthcare- Yardua's daughters are giving birth to children in the US.
Rubbish!

OgidiBoy:

awooooo!! what happened to my sis, when did you become so hardcore dear , haba show some emotion for the dead man.  

Im still the same sis you know I just cant get past all this pretense mehn  
Why should his death even be mourned?
Death comes and goes, abeg I've cried enough over worthy people who suffered at the hands of a sinkhole named Nigeria!

Omolulu:

Now I know that foolishness is no respecter of persons, and yours is on a new level, were you d only one affected by bad policies, were you d only one affected by corruption? My friend if you have nothing sane to say go and play with your friends or watch tv and dont make a fool of yourself, people here are only sad because he's dead and no one blames you if you want to say anything bad him, people have and no one has killed them, don't just come here insulting everyone because you think we should all be as crude and daft as you are,

Abeg- why dont u cry for the children at Jos?
abeg- grow up- Dead is dead-
All this pretense!
Animals die, people die.
oooh because he is dead, im supposed to change my opinion?
who came up with this foolishness of resting in death?
You dey cry for a useless man- See your life.
Wake up.

Omolulu:

Shut the hell up, yes he was incompetent, but then he's dead, let those who want to mourn do it and shut the hell up, this is not the fashion thread 

Hes DEAD, or hes been  DEAD? abeg how can I respect someone dead or alive who gave twoflyingfks about Nigeria.
Thank God the majority of Nigeria is not composed of idiots like you, otherwise I would say Nigeria deserves the state its in!

KMT!
the same man who refused to  fix the health-care system and used our money to fly his wackbehind to the ARABs?
Dead or Alive, doesn't change anything.
There aint nothing to cry for.

Why not cry for people who actually mean something, is crying for hi  going to return the Billions he stole?
NIGERIA?! Some times I don't think this country wants a better life sha

OgidiBoy:

At least pay a little respect to the dead nah!! The man was somebody's son and father.

Babes you know me, respect is given to those who earned it.
Husband to a thief-
or father to those who troop around the world with billons of Naira?
LOL- I guess he died because someone forgot it was their turn to fuel the generator for his life support

foolishness- like the emperors new clothes!
