The Death Of FPMB: A Lesson For The Living

It is no longer news that the former President Muhammadu Buhari has died. May Allah forgive him, be with his family and grant him ease in the grave and Jannah in the Hereafter. Āmīn.

But beyond condolences, his death is a mirror for all of us, especially Nigerians, to reflect. Not just on him, but on ourselves.

Let’s ask ourselves…

Why are government officials looting public funds? Why are ordinary citizens engaging in money rituals, yahoo yahoo, greedy business practices, and even kidnapping innocent people for ransom? Why do lecturers humiliate students unjustly, or inflate scores for bribery? Why are traders hiking prices deliberately, not out of necessity but out of greed? Why are politicians doing everything possible to hold onto power and influence?

The answer is simple: To amass wealth. To enjoy fame. To chase the world.


But here is a question everyone must answer:

How much did former President Muhammadu Buhari take with him? What influence followed him into the grave? What car, what mansion, what convoy joined him in that final resting place? NONE.

You have built estates and kept vaults of naira and dollars, right? What good will it do when your soul is taken?

Excuse me, you ride the biggest cars and are praised on the Internet? Will any of that delay the Angel of Death?

Oh, so you spill innocent blood, crush others with your decisions, and deceive the masses—will the grave ask for your title?

“Every soul shall taste death, and you will only be given your (full) compensation on the Day of Resurrection.” (Surah Aali ‘Imran 3:185)

And the Prophet ﷺ said:

“When a person dies, all his deeds end except three: Sadaqah Jāriyah (ongoing charity), beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who prays for him.” (Sahih Muslim)

Let those who strive, strive for these.

LET ME REMIND YOU, YOU WILL LEAVE ALL BEHIND

Your money: legal or illegal will be left. Your power, your mansion, your secret accounts, will all be left. Your bad deeds, they might be the only thing that accompanies you.

So ask yourself now: Will you be remembered for fairness or for fraud? For kindness or for cruelty? For justice or for oppression?

If we all reflect, truly reflect on death, we will fix our homes, our communities, our politics, our economy, and our nation.

This country can rise again. But it starts with you. It starts with me.

May Allah forgive former President Muhammadu Buhari, have mercy on all deceased Muslims, and make us among those who leave behind goodness, not regrets.

The head of oputa panel was a South eastern man and his recommendations on late president were taken unserious because of his ethnicity......

Time we start taking this fearless tribe serious, if the truth must be told they hold the key to Nigeria development if given the opportunity.
They can be so many things but fear to do the right thing when it matters most is not among.

Prof Nnnana Oti comes to mind; the Abia State INEC returning officer who stood her ground after being threatened, pressured and blackmailed to do the wrong thing but she was fearless......

No Northern or South Western female will ever be bold or courageous enough to do such.......

It is indeed a lesson to all,may we live our lives to please our maker

Thank you sir. Well explained.

Lesson learnt is not to vote ever in my life again.

Death itself is a lesson to all, not necessarily when it involves personalities like Buhari, may God accept his return.

Youth are not consciouse that leaders die and they are actually leaders of tomorrow.. they think its a saying
.
Tinubu is old too...obj, banbagida gowon..

Start your leadership journey today.

Yahaya Bello and Ganduje aka Gandollar left the building

Reason why we were meant to understand that sermon is preached by the grave side, not for the dead but for the living.

I Listened to Yusuf Buhari Addressing Tinubu & The Federal Executive council & I Came to The Conclusion That;

Yusuf Buhari is More intelligent, Responsible. Disciplined Composed, Charismatic Than Seyi Tinubu.

It’s an animal kingdom and religion only blindfolded many.

As humans, just like animals, we are bound to feed on each other directly or indirectly. Nature balanced the cycle. Some people are just created to be capitalized on.

You talk about taking nothing into the grave but you forget that his kids and grand kids will never suffer. They will never stoop low to the level of an ordinary Nigerian.

Moreover, not only politicians are in the trade, the company’s producing the products you consume are reaping you off, telecom providers, hospitals, church , mosque e.t.c

God created the antelope and the likes to be foolish so the lion can feed. If they were all wise, the lion will die of starvation.

No spiritual book stated that, “Thou shall not fool or exploit your fellow humans”

LIKE is SAID, we all OWE tha DEBT! no need to be happy abt anyone

But why no international or other countries sent their condolences to buhari death?

Everyman must taste death but don't be pain to people when Alive. Buhari brought hardship to Nigerians.

This is where having children come in especially male children to continue your legacy. Comprehend?

The living will never learn.

Remember the parable in Luke 16

30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

I would think Tinubu would be the first to change but Like I said we would never learn.

My concern is how some people still have the guts to defend him

Wetin concern his demise and your vote na.



Don't add to the predicament inflicted on us by the man.

The death of any single individual is a lesson for the rest of humanity. Buhari died fulfilled at 82 and on a personal level, he lived an exemplary life with millions of admirers across the country. He was never covetous and lived a life of contentment. His life and times will also serve as a lesson for younger generations to imbue. His legacies live on. May God grant him paradise.

People die everyday there is nothing new about his death. Abacha died worse to some people but he didn't joke with Nigerians. If Abacha ignored those civilians and just carried on doing what he was doing he would have been celebrated.

What a mentality. No wonder, I understand your moral psyche and standing. Out of the abundance of the heart...

Buhari is not a fitting example for this lesson.

There are many who lived lives of extravagance, embezzlement and corruption, greed and looting.

Not a few have vouched for Buhari as a modest, honest, decent, frugal, incorruptible, honest and modest man.
But very many have!

He might have been poor as a President, but as a person he was no saint, but was more integrous than the average joe.

Buhari is the first man to die. Most of you drive pleasure in spewing gibberish

It’s not a mentality or moral grounding. It is the reality that religion has overshadowed.

Every living thing on Earth is built for survival. As humans, we don’t hunt, we feed on the weak.

I'm not blaming you. I will never do. I'm not even religious. Your statement really shows your person, your ideology and what you stand for. By the way, I get your point — you have to eat or be eaten. Kó to jẹ́ ènìyàn, o gbọ́dọ̀ jẹ ènìyàn (before you become somebody, you must have eaten somebody kind of ideology).

💯💯💯

That’s all it has been about. They sold fake morale groundings to reduce competition and increase the populace they will feed on.

Even those that gave us religious books were enslaving is same time. They knew the truth and had to find a tool to brainwash.

Os the nigga the first to day or havent we seen former n even sitting President die in Nigeria, So why or what is the lessons for the living?

Bro, no one lives for ever!
