Another oft bandied lie of these Buharistans is that Buhari Ekwueme was jailed for corruption. Ekwueme was the first politician to be picked up by Buhai boys on the day of the Buhari coup-31 Dec 1983. Nothing incriminating was found on the guy. So, to incriminate him, Buhari sold a lie to Nigerians that $56,000 was found in Ekwueme's house. Till today, nobody apart from Buhari and perhaps, Idiagbon, his 2iC, saw that money. Other accused politicians were tried in the military tribunal and jailed. But Ekwueme was neither taken to a tribunal nor a court--not even a kangaroo one. For 20 months the man was jailed without trial. Later, a panel set up by IBB headed by Justice Uwaifo investigated Ekwueme and returned a verdict that politics made Ekwueme even poorer. He praised Ekwueme for his forthrightness. Till today, Ekwueme has never been found guilty of any crime in his days as Vice President. Yet, these Buharistans keep passing off this gross abuse of fundamental human rights as an achievement. Too bad! They say Buhari can never allow corruption to fester. Now, I grew up in the old Imo State. I was small chap when Buhari came on board. Before Buhari's coup, Sam Mbakwe was the governor of the (old) Imo State, comprising present day Imo and Abia as well as the Afikpo axis of Ebonyi. Mbakwe was everything any state would desire as a governor. He set out to industrialize Imo. The infrastructure his government built in the old Imo has yet to be rivaled. He established Imo State University immediately he became governor. The university, along with the then Bendel State University (now Ambrose Alli University) and Lagos State university were the first set of state universities in Nigeria. They were all established in the same year. So, Mbakwe did well by all standards. Buhari's government appointed Ike Nwachukwu the military governor of Imo State. Ike Nwachukwu (meanwhile Nwachukwu's mother comes from Buhari's Kastina State), under Buhari, set Imo State back just like Buhari set Nigeria back. It was as if he was out to undo all that Mbakwe did. He appointed his cronies the heads of the industries Mbakwe built or maintained. Thence commenced the gradual degeneration of Imo. Worse still, Nwachukwu's government forced civil servants, teachers, students and pupils in the state to pay what was called SURVIVAL LEVY. I was in primary three then and I remember I paid N12. Yes, N12. It was a relatively big money then. Remember, in all the great things Mbakwe did in Imo, the people were never levied. That money was looted as till today, nobody can point to what Ike Nwachukwu's government did with that survival levy. Yet, Buhari did not see that as corruption. But his followers tell us that he loathes corruption. That is why you can never win me over with Buhari will fight corruption bla bla bla. What is even corruption? Corruption, according to the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary is "dishonest or illegal behavior, especially by people in authority". This shows that corruption goes beyond looting of government treasury or embezzlement of public funds. It includes any illegal behaviour. Going by this definition, coup plotting is a crime by Nigerian law. Thus, it is an illegal act. It is corruption and nothing more pretentious. Thus, Buhari, a confirmed coup plotter and human rights abuser, the man who promulgated the decrees 2 and 4 of 1984 to jail journalists who report the corrupt activities of his regime, is CORRUPT. Enough of Buhari's hypocrisy. Fellow Nigerians, corruption cannot fight corruption. 17 Likes 1 Share |

majekdom2: And did you make any sense now? meaning apc want to deceive lagosians to vote for them? if the people or student benefited from the school fees increment, do you think apc need to reduce fees to get vote? If apc reduced school fees, and plan to increase it after winning election, what is the difference between them and the pdp? 3 Likes |

The same person cited as a bad manager in 1983-85 was given an unimaginably powerful position in the 1990s and YET YOU COULD NOT DIG ANYTHING UP? But in 2014 you jump over his 90's record to rate him based on ONLY 1983? Do u listen to yourself at all? |

WombRaiders:you keep arguing the wrong way .... was there any where in my post where I said admissions should not be on merit because you can pay the fees. I never said that , if you are smart and intelligent and you dont have the money to further your education . invest your intelligence in something that can fetch you income for you to afford the education , while doing that you will be adding to the revenue. I never said the best brains came from rich homes .the question the smart poor boy needs to ask himself is what is the quality of education he will be getting , will he be doing the same thing the regular smart ones are doing . if our educational system needs a change , education should never be free and cheap. |

Interesting thread. As a guest most times, I always enjoy reading from Barcanista. The way he articulates and marshals his points to defend his positions for APC/GMB. I believed him, well....almost Until out of nowhere came Datolee With a mission to destroy All their years of 'hard work' Repeatedly crafted lies and half truths All vapourised before their very eyes It is a Sobering Day for team APC/GMB But it is Liberation Day for the rest of us For Truth has been laid bare Though some have eyes, but can't see I chose Truth today over Lies, not GEJ nor GMB 21 Likes 3 Shares |

majekdom2: How many homes can afford to pay the tuition fee of 300,000? Bearing in mind also, that most Nigerians don't believe in having one child it will suffice then that on average of 4 children per household at any given time, a parent will have at least 2 kids in college? How many Nigerians can afford the exorbitant fees? |

brownlord:bro , wake up . the fact the government does not increase fees does not mean they love you , or the fact that you had a cheap education does not mean you government has done the best for you . how well would it have been if after you pass through this " cheap education" you have a cooling job provided for you by the government after your NYSC. Have you bothered to ask yourself why people go abroad for their masters and not in nigeria .... yes people do their masters in Nigeria but ask them if they had the opportunity to go abroad , if they will not . bro , for the country to move forward we need to understand not every one will be pleased by the government actions .you may call it deciet , but atimes your parents have to tel you lies just to make you smile at sometime , thats because they love you . Nigerians dont like the truth ..... you have to lie to them atimes to better their lives # fact#n |

Buhari for the refinery but you are forgetting that it takes a man with a passion and initiative for change to sign and get an initiated project moving. There are many projects that are initiated to help Nigeria but no one has the passion or drive to get it moving. If anyone comes in and signs the document and gets the project started, he deserves to be commended and not rebuked. 3 Likes |

LastProphet: Na dis kind thing dey make me tire to dey comment on nairaland. *sighs* I never said I have anything against the General (I said this before on a thread weeks ago), I was only trying to curb your inference in saying the OP was comparing GEJ's tenure to GMB's tenure. At the beginning of the original post, he was interested only in refuting some lies he knows he can challenge, which was probably why he wasn't interested in the PTF ish. What followed was a debate that pleased me, as both parties countered each other with facts. Its about time Nigerians see things as they are/were instead of 'hearsay'. I was actually intrigued by it all. I don't like people based on their political affiliations. I've praised both PDP and APC public officials provided they are working. 1 Like |
