Alhaji Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, the President of Nigeria from 2007 to 2010, would have turned 73 this May if he were still alive. But regrettably, he was taken by the icy hands of death and dropped from sight just when Nigeria most needed him. We cannot question God. As Epicurus once said, it is possible to guarantee security against all odds. But against death, all men, mortals alike, dwell in an unprotected place.

President Yar’Adua was a model democrat and leader, and he could have finished as one of the most successful presidents Nigeria has ever had. That was not to be, though.

From 2007 to 2010, Umaru Musa Yar’Adua GCFR led the country as president after he was proclaimed the victor of the Nigerian presidential election, and on May 29, 2007, he took office.

In the past, he was a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the governor of Katsina State from 1999 until 2007. Yar’Adua travelled to Saudi Arabia in 2009 to get treatment for pericarditis. On February 24, 2010, he left Nigeria again for the same reason. His return took a long time, and on May 5, he passed away.

He was another Fulani man who would watched and done nothing as herdsmen from his tribe slaughtered Nigerians, same as Buhari did

One of the best, if not the best president (to avoid the hypocritical naysayers) we ever had.

But to me, he is the best president ever, follow by Goodluck Jonathan.

The best slammer is a dead one.

People hailing this man should know that is this man had stayed long he will bring out this knife as a real slammer

This man handled boko haram with iron fist when they began the nonsense.

We really can't be too sure...he probably would have ended up being a bad president. Buhari would have remained a saint and the best man for so many people if he wasn't given that opportunity to rule and show his true nature

COMRADES, that man was killed secretly because he was just

Iron fist? And Boko became a monster immediately after. The killing of their leader by the Yar'Adua regime turned them to a full blown terrorist group.

This same Yaradua knew he was very sick, he knew he could no longer carry on his office effectively due to ill health. Rather than handover to his deputy temporarily until he regained his health, he held on to power. He put his greed and lust for power ahead of his own country

Such a man is no different for the regular bad politicians we see out there
