That's because he was a sitting president. You think if Barack Obama should die today, many countries would care sending condolence messages??

Eriokanmi:
Obama isn't buhari or tinubu. Hope you know. During Jimmy carter's last days, if you remember recently, "get well soon" messages had been flying in already,from across the globe. The moment he was declared dead, condolences was like a Tsunami. Same with Mandela, aka Madiba. Even Nigeria wasn't left behind.

valiju:
Yaradua was a sitting president

Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Nigeria 🇳🇬 @NigeriaMFA

Not impressed.

Peterobiisathie:
IPOBidients will still tell us that Buhari died for second time

Dalohad:
Leaders from Run-of-the-mill countries.

Not impressed.

Eriokanmi:
This has shown how we're being rated in the committy of nations. We've been reduced to nothing under this regime. When yaradua was officially pronounced dead, the US, UK, Germany and other notable countries showered-in their condolences. Days after Buhari has been buried, it's been business as usual. Only india, south africa and a couple of other nations sent condolences. Nigeria shall be great again.

Bluntguy:
It's all good. But when will Trump, Macron and other western leaders commiserate with us

ehiski23:
Recall that Yar' Adua died as a sitting president, but Buhari died after leaving office

Ance4Liverpool:
No notable world leader, like Donald Trump Russian president or Germany attended the burial nor sent their condolences

Moreze:
shame.on people like you that it was only ministers and few president from Africa that sign the condolence message. No president from European countries has sent their condolence message..what a world will live in..

There would be legions condolences. Even former US president Jimmy Carter who died recently at more than 100 years had condolences swarming all over by world leaders.

Eriokanmi:
Agreed and I'd respond to you due to your civility..What of Mandela...and recently, Jimmy carter? Messages had been pouring in, right from when their bodies were still in hospital. We're just not being treated fine outside.

Thats by the way. If you fly to any of the western or Asian countries and the airline had an issue with schedule, instead of leaving passengers stranded, they'd lodge them in their hotels free. Do you know they're always selective of us? Once they see you're Nigerian, they'd tell you you're not eligible for that service. They'd be claiming you do not have a transit visa to enter the city and lodge blabla, knowing fully well that those who were given the same privilege had no transit visa.

When I was going to Los Angeles by Emirates, we had a ridiculously long layover at the airport. They wanted lodging all of us the moment they saw I'm Nigerian, the only passenger from Nigeria going to Los Angeles on that flight, they said, hold on sir and I was like , are you guys OK? I don't know when that word came out of my mouth. Suddenly they apologised and said they're going to attend to me and no issues. They later came and said, pls let's go to the immigration for your free transit visa because we'd need to lodge you in the Emirates hotel inside town. I got my transit visa stamped and went to the arrival area for the bus that would take us to our hotel.

There was a day I boarded Turkish Airlines and the meal menu said, chicken with rice. Nothing of such was served on that flight but pasta. The crew said they switched the menu without them knowing moreover the plane was a hired one and theirs was to operate it, imagine. after paying so much money for our ticket. Everyone just maintained cos if we complained at home, nothing would still happen. Leadership says it all.

We need a leader who'd redeem our image. If you go put there, you'd understand the feelings better.
