If you werent born when he ruled that doesnt mean you should write false and unverified account about him.

You can hate him (maybe because on ethnic or religion) but that doesnt mean your should spread lies about him. Ignorance is not an excuse here. There are books out there which you can read and gather the truth from. A stop at the wikipedia is enough to find what he has achieved. I think you should do away with this dubious hearsay of yours.


And Miss, who is the young age person you want to see as the president? Why cant you campaign for the young person maybe that would gear him to pick a ticket for the presidency? And how do you think the new fella can do better than old ones? Do you know what they call experience?


The youth of this days are not focused. If you have a youth that can do the job, team up with him/her and pick a form.

Buhari has shown us he is ready for the job and we trust he will deliver. You either support him or continue looking for the new face. . . . .young pal who you think can do better.

One the serious account. . . . .stop spreading unverified and unconfirmed accounts. Use much of your effort on the man you want as the president rather than tarnishing another man's image with lies and hearsay
I do not hate buhari. He is ok although not a saint he claim to be
I would have wanted buhari in his good nature to pick another person or friend whom he trust an deliver to contest

The face might not be young but a new face. Talking about experience which experience did buhari have b4 he bcame HOS. You don't need experience a leader is a leader .

With GEJs first term of serious looting and corruption, giving him another 4 years is disaster. He knows that's his last four years so he's not gonna give a damn. Another 4 Years of GEJ is total disaster to this country.
What has happened under GEJ? Is it not the same looting that has been going on since independence? What's the difference btw the looting going on in GEJ's governement and the looting that draged Nigeria to this mess we are in b4 GEJ?

Buhari knew he was up against the elements because most of the GOCs where Soldiers who were involved in the overthrow of shagari and were rewarded with promotion, appointment and leadership of core military formations. Truly Idiagbon being around then wont have stopped the coup though he might have made it more difficult and bloody.

orkar's coup had echendu too who was a colonel then, their plan was to kill the head of state and some top military top brass, whip up popular support with their act to cut off some states from the Nigerian Entity and then take command and formations.

their plan was watery and not organised, they could not rally the middlebelt soldiers into their plot which was their achilles heel.

the way the military was structured then, no coup could succed except the core north was behind it.
Of course Buhari didn't stand a chance in the world. I also learnt he was going to retire many of those senior officers.

Echendu was a Lieutenant not a Colonel. He was the one who caused the commotion which alerted IBB's men in Dodan Barracks when he took control of an armoured vehicle.

Orkar's coup was very poorly planned and . How they planned to cut off the north from Nigerians, only God knows. They didn't even bother to try and secure formations in Ibadan,Enugu,Jos,Kaduna etc .

Is buhari not corrupt? Are all nigerian leaders both past and present not corrupt?
Miss. . . . .You did not experince Buhari's reign because youwerent born at that period. You are grossly ignorant about who he is/was because you are adamant to learning. You are misinformed, feed with lies and fairy tales. And this is what you drew your conclusion from?

Read your history Miss, Buhari fought against corruption and made lot of success putting it at the bay. There is no other person in this country that have reached the height he went in his campaign agaisnt corruption.

Who doesnt know that GEJ is corrupt? Even the people outside the shore of this country are disturbed with the high stinking rate of corruption in GEJ government. Yet you kept mute about that but keep shouting GMB is corrupt. How do you know he is corrupt when you lack knowledge about who is? How do you know he is corrupt when you have been misinformed about who he really is? How do you know he is corrupt when only rely on hearsay from your deluded uncle in the villa? How do you know he is corrupt when you have been clouded with ethnical hate and become a religious big.ot?

Miss, I am sorry to say, you are the most corrupt person here. Your heart and mouth is filled with lies. An evidence your mind is filled with corruption.

my brother its hard to believe most igbos especially those on NL seems to be on remote control mode. easily programmed and feed with whatever their elites feed them. if a single individual can lead the entire race into an uncalled for and unwarranted war he knew he wasnt gonna win, one would feel the lessons of the civil war would make them cautious and take well thought out decisions.

Buhari is corrupt because some igbo leaders said so, Buhari is a terrorist because some priests said he is. No independent mind, No informed opinion based on personal conviction just follow the crowd mentality.

which reasonable nigerian will pray to continue to have GEJ as President except some igbos who feels and think the issue of Boko Haram is their god and GEJ fighting and revenging for them for their loss during the civil war. Hate filled individuals who forget their tribe men are the most travelled amongst all Nigerian tribes who flee the backwardness and lack of opportunity prevalent in their enclave.

they should wait and allow GEJ be the president of their new Biafra Republic from 2015 when he is swept out from history.

Ok let me say this. If buhari is the only non corrupt person the opposition has to offer then I would rather vote for a corrupt GEJ. I
still do not believe buhari is not coRrupt though. because them no see banana for monkey hand no mean say he no dey shop banana.

Buharia is in the past let's get a new uncorrupt person or we continue with corrupt GEJ.

Where did Buhari claims to be a saint?

Is he not the same person that said he is ok by the primary election result and ready to work with who ever win the ticket?

Is he as a Nigerian not credible again to hold an office? Miss, it is his right to vote and be voted for. So if he wins the primary againt other APC aspirants, he is as good to go as the rocket in empty space.

Miss, I have told you severally, I dont like lashing women. They are special gift of nature. But pls stop lying and spreading false information. Buhari was the PTF chairman before he became the HOD. What he did as a chairman then was what qualifies him as the chosen HOD. . . . .and for sure the chosen leader of our days.

He has his experience. He is tested, trusted and reliable.

Orkar's coup was very poorly planned and . How they planned to cut off the north from Nigerians, only God knows. They didn't even bother to try and secure formations in Ibadan,Enugu,Jos,Kaduna etc .
That was the reason why the coupists acted fast, you know Buhari when he gets angry over any act he finds inappropriate take drastic action. He had pencilled them for retirement sensing the way they were placing themselves strategically to hold command positions and were visibly showing resentments to the way he wasn"t allowing them to enrich and swell their pockets.

They felt he wasn't in tune with their ulterior motive of enriching themselves when they took over from shagari and hence they were murmuring and gossiping about how strict and detailed he was on every approval.
He had informed Idiagbon concerning his wish to effect some changes in the command of formations and also retire some officers but idiagbon advised he hold on till his return and the decision could be a supreme military council joint decision.

You could see the way they shared oil blocs and import licence and waivers amongst themselves immediately he was removed and how Babangida was able to perpetuate himself in power since he was patronizing the boys.

i will read more about echendu i think he was a Lt. Col but not sure again.

Orkar and their gang had no plan for a broad campaign, they wanted to just effect a change and see how the boys will react to the change in Lagos.

I am not calling or trying to make Buhari look like a saint. He is not, pls note that.

But on his antecedence and job he did then, we can trust that he will fight against corruption. He has done it before and will surely do it again

Oga abeg no lashing here the buhari wey u dey defend and Jonathan wey me I dey defend no know us @ all. I am not saying buhari is not good enough I am only saying his time has come and gone and mind you I am not the only one that has this line on thought. There are many nigerians that do not want buhari to win because especially the youth but not because he's not capable but becasue we are tired of seeing his face on television. This election is not about party the day the APC will produce a better candidate pdp will not stand a chance.

On a final note I will not vote buhari becos I think his time is not now. I don't have a problem with him contesting though this is not about tribe or religion it is just my opinion and I am entitled to it

If 8uhari, a serving military officer and Head of State in a military junta was not powerful enough to control the army, how then do we expevt Jonathan, a complete "bloody" civilian to control them?

So Buhari did not want blood shed? What about the ones he shed during the genocide against Biafrans?

What about back dating a law just to kill? Okay, I understand it. He killed them to set example!

What about threatening the blood if election is "rigged"?

The issue I have with these politicians is that they don't sEe anything goood in another party they condemn without profering solutions. They call one party bad when they know that members fromed that party formed a large chunk of their own parties they put political and party selfish interest above national interest. When one member crossed from one party to another he becomes born again. They play politics of bitterness and hatred and all that. Trust me we may get it right but not in this generation

Your GEJ should have ensured maintaince of that bridge and employ engineers to o proper checking. Life has been lot, I pray another wont go because of that bridge.

Even if all the bridges in Nigeria collapse GEJ is still my prefered candidtate except APC presents the likes of Akpabio Duke Fashola Muazzu or ribadu who got my vote in the election he contested but lost.

Na How many bridges schools or Hospitals buhari build for Igbo land with PTF money?
Buhari case with Igbos na another story of its own.If he get one vote for Igbo land he try

Igbos are used to been negleted by the FG so the they don't even care anymore even GEJ govt has only appointed them in key FG positions but aside from that Igbos have always been negleted mayb it is because of the civil war or just hatred I don't know.

My brother arguing with some people from a certain part of Nigeria is like pouring water in a basket and expecting it to get full.

They are trained and tuned to act in auto mode and can be gullible and easily stereotyped to believe whatever message their elites feed them. It should marvel you that their zone is the least developed and least populated in the country because they are quick to pack their bags and baggages to flee the poverty and lack of opportunity prevalent in their land occasioned by the choice of leaders they continually turn up and swallow every gibberish those leaders feed them.

Who in his right senses will compare a buhari and a jonaTAN except someone who is ignorant not ready to seek knowledge and is fed tales by moonlight by his forebears who have taught them to hate and lack objectivity in their reasoning.
Am sure you have not travelled to the East. Do yourself a favour by visiting any of the cities in the Eastern Region before you come online to spew rubbish.
