Buhari is violence personified except u were not in Nigeria in 2011 when he said if he loose election everybody will die. He lost and hundreds of nigrrias died
And you take pleasure in lying. It wasn't 2011 but 2012 when he made that semantic statement of "dogs and baboons will be soaked in blood if what happened in 2011 repeat itself". He was referring to the technological rigging machine of PDP. Every right thinking Nigerians know how PDP have perfected the act of rigging and how the Supreme court of the land had in many instances acclaimed that the elections of 2007 and 2011 were flawed but still went ahead to upheld them. We all know that before now all elections are war that must be won by them at all cost. It was in 2007 during the presidential campaign in Ogun state that OBJ declared on a live broadcast that that year election was a do-or-die election and that was how it was. That was the only election that the supreme did declared that it never complied to the requirements of the electoral law but they still went ahead to declared a winner. It was also in 2011 that some states in south south recorded 90% of electoral votes in the history of Nigeria election. It was shocking that those states that have never recorded such feat in any election in Nigeria churn out such arbitrary figures and the supreme court went ahead to certified the election. That semantic words really helped, they would have churned out same figure but they were cautious. No single south south state recorded 60% electoral votes.
Life is about cost and effect or action and reaction. When people reacted to an issue people will forget the action that preceded the reaction but focus on the reaction or effect. The why in it would not be mentioned. He did not wake up at the bad side of his bed to say "dogs and baboons will be soaked in blood" it was the cost he incurred during the 2011 general elections and in 2012 he bore his mind.
Next time don't just quote negative words people said, also let them know what informed the negative words.

Anyone can bear the name Buhari. He did not specifically state that it was president Buhari.

So court cannot prosecute this Akuma for a post he made on twitter threatening the life of the president

Why then does people think that court can jail Nnamdi Kanu for posts he made on twitter and the programs he aired on Radio Biafra while in UK?

I am neutral on kanu's case but this issue gat me thinking logically

It is difficult to prosecute him base on those posts:

The prosecution must proof three things:
1. He made the threat.
2. He intended on carrying it out or have the means to carry it out.
3. Items 1 & 2 above occurred concurrently.

Someone asked, if you have a million dollar, what will you do? And he opened his mouth and starting talking….

We know he does not have a million dollars, so his response can be taken as an hyperbole.

The prosecution botch this, they would have provided him with a million bucks and monitor him to see if he will start making plans to put his words into action.

If someone have a gun and says…he will blow person A head off….that is a threat! But if someone say, if I win a million dollars, I will buy a gun and blow person A head off….it will be a difficult job to prosecute the second person, since the intent have not developed.

[s]You are talking as if that is some type of special virtue where everyone else should just drop to their knees or cower in fear! All I know is pride comes before a fall...a haughty spirit before destruction! Prior to 1999, Abacha was just hounding and kidnapping people everywhere until his cup was full. There is a terrible end-game for any Evil in power...no matter how toxic.

With the lessons from the short history of democracy from 1999--it is now explicitly clear: Christian leaders can respect or tolerate harsh criticism--even overt threats under the broad cover of freedom of speech---while Muslim leaders are ever instinctively inclined to dictatorial rule even under the slim disguise of "democratic rule". Islam is antithetical to any freedom of expression....it's plain as day.

The Christian and Islamic cultures can NEVER co-exist smoothly and peacefully in any so-called "democracy". Look at Lebanon. Or what Erdogan's Turkey is up to lately. Force fusing them into any type of experimental pseudo-democracy without the core fundamentals will end very badly.[/s]
So what the hell are u tryna say?

So u are defending the uncouth silly Pharmacist who allowed school pass through him.

Continue defending shitty online behavior. One day u will be in a position of leadership and someone will come online to tweet on how he will eliminate yourself and your family,then u come back to this ur nonsense post.

Lolz. Don't you feel it is stupid to think anyone opposing Buhari's bad government is automatically an Igbo?

Stop disgracing those who sent you to school.

The court does not prosecute. Furthermore, the court cannot take a position on any matter i.e. declaring a person guilty or not without the prosecution (in this case the government) bringing such a person PROPERLY before the court. There are laid down procedures for arraigning a person and initiating a suit from filing of processes and if not correctly done, the court will not entertain such a matter least of all pronounce any decision. If the litigants - prosecution and defence do not do their homework, the court will simply throw out (strike out) the case.

For Kanu, if the prosecution (FG) successfully proves its case, the court will make its pronouncement of finding him guilty and sentence accordingly. Of course there is the right of appeal. On the other hand, if the defense team is able to rubbish the submissions of the FG, the court is bound to discharge and acquit him provided there is no political interference or deliberate ploy to keep him incarcerated as is usually the case once the FG (Buhari and minions) feels offended.

The current case of this man that has been detained for 11 months is an obvious ploy of the FG to keep him in perpetual detention just because they have the power to and institutions are dead as usual. Otherwise the court should have made a consequential order immediately it struck out the case to have him released from detention but asking his lawyer to file a formal application is another delay tactic....
