which investment is paying off ,there still insecurity in Anambra till today, there are roads still being constructed every administration constructs road, there are still food problems in Anambra, I am not saying he didn't do well in Anambra but may not be good enough for Nigeria if he wants to continue with nairaland devaluation and total removal of subsidies like Tinubu, it is a senseless policy that only someone on drug can visit such on his people
I am looking for how to engage him and hear from him directly if after discussion he is still on that part, I will campaign against him

"He may not be good enough", that's what people are basing their judgement on and insisting a bad leader should continue. Tell me any developed country in the world that does that. Name one country where things work that does that. Wasn't it Biden's failures that brought Trump back to office? Trump that many Americans could not stand, they decided to vote for him because they will NEVER reward failure.

But for some reason in Nigeria, some people even in their worst of hardships are saying "he may not be good enough so let the failure continue". There is a reason they are called "Third world" anyway.

Tinubu cannot win re election if he doesn't rig, it doesn't mean we we should replace him another Tinubu or even worse ,there are other Nigerians, there will be more coming out as we approach 2027,anyone even if he just wants to sound politically correct say he will continue doing what Tinubu is doing is automatically disqualified it doesn't mean Tinubu is an option no

Did you vote for GEJ as President? Do you think he was a better President than Buhari and Tinubu. I want to understand something

oga the record speaks for itself by whatever yardstick you what to use,the only thing against Jonathan was he was weak and had ineffective spokesmen both at the party level and government level

helinues:
The news is still shocking. I feel somehow weak sha

Very shocking indeed. Need help?

No matter what transpired between him and Nigeria, may he find rest.

This is a sad outlook to have. Your phrase "no matter what transpired between him and Nigeria" is a seeming indictment of him. If so, why is your thought of rest instead of justice? Because he is dead?

Death does not, and should not, confer on a human immunity from judgment or criticism.

Rocky, you are in a country where many decades after a crime's commission, investigation still goes on. Even when the victims are few, or victimless.

Buhari was a congenital bigot. Deeply sectarian. Grandly corrupt. Historically incompetent. His speeches and actions took Nigeria's fault lines back to civil-war times. He unfurled unprecedented economic ruin via his policies. Nigeria's commonwealth suffered unprecedented plundering under his watch. Millions of Nigerians were direct victims of his criminality. Livelihoods and lives were ruined.

The above is not accidental. Similar scenarios occurred when he was a military dictator. So you see, anyone who failed as a tyrant, and civilian government, has issues far beyond personal incompetence.

Buhari does not deserve rest, he deserves justice.

No matter how much I oppose the APC today, I was a Buharist until 6 months or so after he was elected President. I realized I was wrong, he didn’t have it in him, GEJ was the best choice to continue.

I created this account to support his Presidential ambition, but ended up parting ways and being very opposed to his presidency.

I wasn’t a fan of GEJ but he was the best choice to be president over Buhari, and Peter Obi today is the best choice to be President so I remain Obidient

. How are we so sure you are not making a mistake this time around? i remember how I tried to convince people like you then to vote for Jonathan and that Buhari was a disaster, but you people refused and called me names. Now see the outcome.

Because you asked respectfully, I will say this. If someone fails, we vote the person out. If the new person is a mistake, we learn from it and move on. That's how any developed country in the world does. That's how they developed. You don't reward failure. Biden's failures is the reason Trump was reelected, a man many Americans can't stand.

Tell me any developed country in the world that rewards failed leaders, name just 1. It's always countries like Africa that we have failed leaders ruling over and over again, because the people are saying "others may be worse" so they keep voting the leaders over and over again.

I get where you are coming from, joudini, as I do many Nigerians who lived through the consequences of his policies and leadership. You are correct. Death shouldn’t shield anyone from being scrutinized. Facts must be recorded by history, honestly. Criticism, even of the dead, is part of how nations learn and grow.

But I also believe that there’s a difference between seeking historical truth and seeking posthumous vengeance.

When I said, “no matter what transpired between him and Nigeria,” I did not mean to excuse or whitewash his actions. I meant to acknowledge that his legacy is complicated and, for many, painful indeed. Real systemic justice should be pursued while the person is alive and accountable IMO though. That Nigeria often fails to do so is one of our deepest national wounds.

Again, rest, in the context of death, is not a reward but a universal human closure. Saying he should find rest is not for absolution, but to leave judgement to history and for some of us, to God.

It is also a tested and trusted way for us the living, to choose not to carry forward hatred that consumes and divides.

In all, your demand for truth and justice is justified. Hopefully, we will learn and continue to hold leaders to account, not just in death, but in life where it matters most.

Quite a synopsis. I agree. For many people, his destruction was personal.

I hope you and yours are good.
