And somebody was looking down, ... and that's perfect, ...because his name is not Buhari. The one to the right of Merkel wouldn't return to his country if he were Buhari. Arrangements in pictures are mostly impromptu, but had Buhari stayed behind, it would mean he's relegated. Man, you have nothing good to say about Buhari and if you'd said that straight you'd most likely be understood.
Actually, I couldn't care about the others in the picture, not even the overconfident Obama.

Consider this response to your trashy submission as a gift. It won't come so generously next time.

Thank you omonnakoda. Yours is deeper, more insightful, patriotic and tells a true story that every good Nigerian can relate with.
The OP's submission? A misapplied giftedness that actually displayed the infantile and bigoted thinking of an otherwise talented wordsmith!

There he stands
dignified and poised
in foreign lands
Stands tall and commands
a new respect and hope

Not the reprimands
from foreign lands
not the distrustful gloved hands
given and withdrawn from
the empty creek hat

Now he stands
in true embrace
of trustful hands
A Thoughtful , modest guest

Mindful of purpose
Focused on substance
He stands on ground
Firm like a rocket primed

He stands in a crowd at once
alone and yet surrounded
mindful there is work undone
and work misdone and
work to be done

Alone is good said the eagle
in the azure mount
I see clearly from here
before I swoop . I see

What must be done
What must be undone
and then redone.
He stands with a back
Trained to be straight
When the burden presses

The burden shall not bow me
Nay I shall rise instead
My people will rise and the day
will come when we drive and are
not driven
,
He stands for the dignity
of the dead that won't die
of Baga and Potiskum
He knows this is a time
of somberness and dignity
He stands alone
He stands tall and
Nigeria stands with him
Nice retort bros.
Unfortunately, you are looking at (or yearning for) an alternate universe. In this universe, in this world, on this planet, Buhari's poise (lack of it actually) inspires no confidence, and portray a man struggling to fit in.

Not a million words, can change the picture we all see.

Look at him again, and look at others.

They are trying to sell those awkward and bland images of him as grand.
That's why they keep churning them out in huge number.

Look at picture. Buhari is fidgeting, and finding it difficult to mix with other world leaders, while the APC wights keep trying to tell us otherwise.

There he stands
His hands,
Hidden from sight
That men, who stood before him
Might not behold
How he trembles

There he stands
Awkwardly,
Like a fish
Out of water,
Longing, not for the penetrating rays
Of light, of eyes
But the dark slimy abode

There he stands
Hidden in plain sight
Behind dark glasses,
Dodging peering eyes
Like a hermit crab

There he stands
Looking
Not at others
But away from all
Perhaps, that none might ask
Why he gallivants
While Borno burns

There he stands
Among others
Too engrossed to mingle
With my president,
Buhari, of One Chance
The prominent dullard
From Duara

There he stands
Alone
In a crowd!

Until they come and be begging from you, your myopic mind cannot see them lamenting despite the fact that Abia owes more than any other states.

If Osun State is brutalized and raped by hunger through 6/7 months indebtedness, what do you think will be happening to Abians who received there last salaries going to a year?

Abia receives more allocation than Osun, likewise having more internal source of revenue. The state didn't provide uniforms nor any meals for students. so why are they owing workers if I may ask?

Pipeline vandalism, oil theft, high level of corruption, mismanagement of economy etc constitute reduction in FG's allocation to all states: that is what brings about 40-50% reduction. Only those states with much ability to generate internal revenue are sustaining it at present.

This is where we found ourselves under maladministration of Jonathan: get the fact right.
Hold your governor accountable! No more no less!!

Whether you are PDP apologist or not is not the case. The bone of contention is why are you exaggerating Osun's case despite the fact that we have more of PDP controlled states owing in the last political dispensation?

Abia is owing more than any states despite receiving allocations more than Osun: it also have more internal revenue than Osun: yet it is still owing.

Plateau owes more than Osun, likewise Benue. Yet you keep mute and having orgasm on Osun's case with little or no internal source of revenue.

If you want to come to equity, you have to come with clean hands: that's all.

Zoning: Don’t push us to the wall, Violence may be inevitable -Atiku warns

on December 15, 2010 / in News 5:55 pm / Comments

By Henry Umoru
A Presidential aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,[size=18pt] Alhaji Atiku Abubakar Wednesday warned that if the leadership of the Party and that of the country jettison the already existing zoning arrangement, it would amount to making violence change inevitable.[/size]

Speaking Wednesday at National Stakeholders’ Conference, 2010 at the Thisday Dome, Abuja, the former Vice President who noted that he was not praying that the political situation of the party and that of the country should get to the level of applying violent means to address the nation’s problems, also stressed that if the PDP fails to embrace reforms, it stands the risk of making itself irrelevant.

Meanwhile, Former Senate President, Iyorchia Ayu has called on Nigerians especially those from the South to put behind them those eras in the 1960s which produced coups and counter coups in the country, just as northerners became Heads of State during the periods.

According to Ayu, “North is not set out to dominate anybody. I want you to ignore the Nigerian history of 60’s that produced coups and counter coups with its leaders as northerners. It was not conspiratorial on the part of the Northern political leaders, it was accidental.

“When we had opportunity we, not only brought out President Obasanjo who was in prison for treason out, but the north made him President even when his immediate community rejected him. It was the highest show of solidarity by the North. The least our brothers from the south can do is to demonstrate and reciprocate the goodwill.”

Ayu who admitted that the task ahead them is ensuring that the Consensus Candidate for the north, Atiku Abubakar gets the party’s ticket as well as become the President of the country come next year, said, “we are trying to tell you that we have difficult task ahead of us. If you are not present here today, the consensus effort would have been a failure. But with your presence here today, Atiku ceases to be the Northern Consensus Candidate but the Consensus Candidate of Nigeria.”

This is an Osun State debt thread.

When such thread is open for other states, then perhaps we can discuss them. If you don't want to speak to the topic, that's your problem. Asking others not to, is not particularly bright.

We can't leave Osun State alone, the people there are filling our ears with their cries, and they wet our space with their tears. If you wish you can leave them alone, but we WON'T!
