9. Dude you can't compare military regime VS democracy. You think when he assumes office in May, he will be able to commit all those atrocities you listed up there?

Unbelievable! So even after admitting he actually did commit something, you are still talking about assuming office in may?

THE THOUGHTS OF THE WISE MAN....MAKE YOUR VOTE COUNT


ATROCITIES OF BUHARI

1. He Is A Hypocrite And Sanctimonious: Buhari is a self-acclaimed anti-corruption Czar, yet he served under late Sani Abacha without complaining of corruption. In the same period Buhari served as PTF Chairman under Abacha, Nigeria was named the 2nd most corrupt country in the world in 1996 by Transparency International; the most corrupt country in 1997 and 3rdmost country in 1998. Buhari didn’t resign or protest. He dismissed the TI Report with a wave of the hand. Can he do the same if such report says Nigeria is the most corrupt country in 2014? I know that Buhari would protest and call President Jonathan names.

Buhari as a man of integrity as he claims should have done what Tai Solarin, Duro Onabule and Ebitu Ukiwe did under IBB’s regime. IBB’s attempt to take Nigeria into the Organization of Islamic Countries (OIC) made his Chief of General Staff, Ebitu Ukiwe to resign. Ukiwe maintained that Nigeria, as a country, should not be a member of a religious organisation. Individual organisation can take up membership of religious organisations, but not the country. IBB made Tai Solarin the chairman of Peoples Bank with no fund and power to run it; he resigned and tendered his apology to Nigerians.
Buhari has not apologized to Nigerians for working for the most corrupt govt in the world then, but he still maintains that Abacha didn’t loot Nigeria dry even as Abacah loots are still being sent back to Nigeria.

When he took over power by the gun, he supported rigging because it favoured him. But now, he is shouting of rigging. Hear him:
“The last general election was anything but free and fair. The only political parties that could complain of election rigging are those parties that lacked the resources to rig.” – M. Buhari (First Speech after Military Coup, 31 December, 1983)

2. He Is A Religious Fanatic And Extremist: Buhari believes that his religion is superior to other religions and that Koran supersedes our constitution. In 2001, he gave his total support for Sharia with this statement:

“I will continue to show openly and inside me the total commitment to the Sharia movement that is sweeping all over Nigeria. God willing, we will not stop the agitation for the total implementation of the Sharia in the country.”- M. Buhari (August 27, 2001)

He made the above statement after he had gone to BBC Hausa Service to condemn the then Vice President, Atiku Abubakar for urging Muslims states who adopted Sharia to return to the status quo.

If you think that these statements mean nothing, then envision what would happen if a notable Christian political leader from the south make the same statement about spreading Christianity across Nigeria.

Prior to the 2003 elections, he made another shocking statement:
“Muslims should only vote those who will promote Islam. We are more than the Christians if you add our Muslim brothers in the West.”- M. Buhari (2003)

3. He Introduced Kidnapping And Smuggling Into The Nigeria System:The story of Umaru Dikko is already well known that repeating it here amounts to tautology. However, Buhari and his ADC Col. Mustapha Jokolosupervised the smuggling of 53 suitcases filled with cash against the protests of Tunde Idiagbon and ironically, Abubakar Atiku (an APC bigwig), was the former DG of Customs. Do you still need to know why Buhari has never accused Atiku of being corrupt?

4. He Is Not A Man of His Words: Buhari cried in public and said he won’t contest elections again, yet couldn’t keep his words:
“This campaign is the third and last one for me; since, after it, I will not present myself again for election into office of the president.” – M. Buhari (April, 2011 at the Int’l Conference Centre, Abuja)

Then again in 2014, he swallowed his words with this:

“I humbly present myself to all Nigerians and to God, seeking to be elected as APC’s presidential candidate.” – M. Buhari (Oct., 15, 2014 Eagle Square Abuja)
5. He Is An Ethnic Bigot Who Thinks That Vendetta Is Fighting Corruption: After Buhari and his boys overthrew the govt of Shagari with the sole reason that the govt was highly corrupt, he locked up Dr. Alex Ekwueme – the then VP in Kirikiri maximum prison but left Shagari – the president and Head of govt in his mansion. Ekwueme was tried by the tribunal set-up by Buhari and the tribunal declared that he was even poorer than he was before he came into office. Yet, Buhari jailed him and allowed Shagari to relax in his mansion.

He gave Dede Sam Mbakwe 100-year jail term for stealing nothing and also went after his wife. Ambrose Ali was tried for an undeveloped plot of land and he was jailed for 75 years with heavy torture that led to blindness and later death. Jim Nwobodo and Lateef Jakande were jailed for 100 years for stealing nothing. Adekunle Ajasin was tried by a military tribunal and found innocent. Buhari ordered a fresh trial, he was found innocent again. Buhari changed the tribunal and tried him again. He was still found innocent. Buhari still jailed him. But, Buhari left his personal friend – Awwal Ibrahim – the then highly corrupt governor of Niger State who was arrested at Heathrow airport with £14 million. Awwal was never jailed. He was placed under house arrest in his mansion like Shagari for just two weeks and indeed released.

6. He Is A Coupist: Buhari has no moral ground to stand for an election in Nigeria because he’s a destroyer of democracy and can never benefit from it. He overthrew a duly elected govt and ruled illegitimately until he was kicked out. For those that claim he was invited, go read the recent interview by Chief Ebenezer Babatope on why Chief Solomon Lar was imprisoned by Buhari.

7. He Doesn’t Talk or Act Like An Elder-statesman: He makes provocative statements that are capable of putting the country in crisis. This attitude caused the death of over 800 innocent lives including about 10 Corp members after he lost the 2011 elections. A man who considers himself as an elder-statesman and wants to rule Nigeria again should not be talking this way:

“God willing, by 2015, something will happen. They either conduct a free and fair election or they go a very disgraceful way. If what happened in 2011 should again happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and baboon would all be soaked in blood.” – M. Buhari

“2015 will be bloody…” – M. Buhari

Buhari snubbed the same Nigerians he now wants their votes by refusing to appear before Justice Oputa Truth and Reconciliation Panel. Buhari knew how important reconciliation is to the stability of democracy, yet he refused to appear before the panel.

8. He Cannot Formulate A Good Economic Policy: True to that, Buhari is the only former Head of State without a legacy. Not even one, despite ruling with iron-fist for 2 years. Someone said, Environmental sanitation is his legacy LOL and I ask, how has that improved our economy? Or is Nigeria now the cleanest country in the world with a booming tourism industry? And again, those that attended his declaration were disappointed as he couldn’t present a manifesto on how he can solve the numerous problems confronting Nigeria. We keep hearing from the Buharists: “I will fight corruption; I will stop corruption; I will end corruption.” How? By mouth? Recall what BBC said about Buhari’s economic policy: “Buhari’s attempts to re-balance public finances by curbing imports led to many job losses and the closure of businesses. These losses were accompanied by a rise in prices and a decline in living standards.” His economic policy started the devaluation of naira. During Shagari/Ekweme’s regime, $1 = N0.550 but before the end of his tenure in 1985, $1 = N0.894.

9. He Clamped Down On The Press: With the infamous Decree 4, he closed down Newspapers, arrested and jailed many journalists such as Ndukar Irabor and Tunde Thompson of the Guardian Newspaper on stories that were factual. He told the Nigerian journalists then that it did not matter whether the story reported was true or not, if his regime did not like it, the writer would go to jail.
At a point Tai Solarin became the only voice who could speak as he stood at the road corner and was distributing leaflets detailing the various atrocities of Buhari. He arrested and jailed him. In prison, he was denied his asthmatic drug. He was released by IBB and later died of complication from the torture he suffered in prison.

10. He Is Not A Man of Principle And Integrity: Since 2003, Buhari has been jumping from one party to another in his desperate and endless quest to rule Nigeria. He started with ANPP in 2003 to CPC in 2011 and, now in APC. He might abandon APC for another party if they deny him ticket.

11. He Has No Regard For Human Rights: Mrs. Vera Ifudu, who was an NTA reporter then, was sacked for reporting what Dr. Olusola Saraki had told her in an interview about how the missing money was traced to Buhari’s account at Midland Bank London branch. Vera eventually won her case of wrongful dismissal in court against the NTA and was financially compensated.

Dim Emeka Odimegwu Ojukwu, who returned from 13 years exile, just a little over a year then, was as well locked up in Kirikiri Prison by Buhari. Up till today we were not told what his offence was. Busari Adelakun died of ulcer because Buhari refused him to be taken out of prison for medical attention. The then Gov. of Ogun State, Bisi Onabanjo suffered similar fate which we were told led to his untimely death.

For using the US$2.8bn to sing, Buhari jailed Fela Anikulapo -Kuti on trumped up charges under emergency law which prompted the sentencing judge to confess that he was ordered to do so and apologised to Fela. It was Buhari’s administration that said it has “decided to deal with this Fela problem once and for all.”

Buhari used retrogressive law to execute three Nigerians: Lawal Ojuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26). One of those three – Ogedengbe – was executed for a crime that did not carry capital punishment at the time it was committed.

12. He Is Corrupt: That a blind man doesn’t see the sun don’t mean the sun is not up in the sky. That Buhari has not been jailed for corrupt practises doesn’t mean he is not corrupt, after-all, nobody has jailed IBB, OBJ etc., yet people say they’re corrupt. Buhari has never been able to account to Nigerians what he did with the N25 billion missing in PTF of which he was the chairman. Shagari incurred Buhari’s wrath when he decided to investigate the US$2.8 billion that disappeared from NNPC account and traced to the Midland Bank, London. Justice Ayo Irikefe panel was set-up and Saraki headed the Senate committee. The following were unequivocally discovered:

Firstly, a judicial panel was set up to trace the $2.8billion (Justice Ayo Irikefe panel).

Secondly, a senate committee was also set up to trace the $2.8billion (headed by the elder Saraki).

The findings of the senate committee were reported live on NTA by Vera Ifudu.
Buhari overthrew the govt to burn and shred the evidence.
Buhari got Vera Ifudu sacked.
Vera Ifudu and the NTA went to court.
Vera Ifudu won her case, got reinstated and was paid compensation
A man that procured a loan of N27.5million to purchase his presidential form using man-know-man approach is definitely corrupt. Buhari ought to live by example.

13. He Is A Pretender And Deceiver: Buhari claims that he has no foreign bank account, no booming business, no house in Lagos or Abuja. He has 2 houses: one in Katsina and the other in Kaduna. Yet he has been contesting elections since 2003 and pursuing it up to the Supreme Court with his team of SANs. The minimum appearance fee for a SAN at the Presidential election case at the Supreme Court is N25 million. Where did he get this money? Can he tell us his sponsors? He borrowed N27.5 million to buy a form, yet he moves around in Chattered aircraft each time he wants to fly which is costlier than owing one. Buhari is definitely a pretender.

14. He Is A Tribalist: Since his days as a Head of State, he only appointed his people in important positions. As the chairman of PTF, he employed an overwhelming number of Fulani/Hausa/Moslem at the detriment of other groups and concentrated PTF projects in the North. He used the company of his in-law – (Salihijo Ahmad), Afri-Projects Consortium in executed all the projects. He shamelessly executed about 74% of the projects in the north and 26% in the entire south according to PTF Situation Report (Vol 2, 98).

15. He Has Soft-spot For Boko Haram: Buhari made the following statements which support Boko Haram:

“The declaration of state of emergency in three Northern states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe is a grave injustice against the North.” – M. Buhari (Liberty Radio, June 2, 2013)

“…when the Niger Delta militants started their activities in the South-South, they were invited by the late President Umaru Yar’adua. An aircraft was sent to them and their leaders met with the late President in Aso Rock and discussed issues. They were given money and a training scheme was introduced for their members. But when the Boko Haram emerged in the north, members of the sect were killed”. – M. Buhari (Liberty Radio, Kaduna May 14 2012)

But on Ombatse, his tone changed because they killed Fulanis:
“…But those that killed the 56 security men must be hunted and prosecuted no matter how long it will take because this is the bottom line about law and order, and security in the country. They can’t be forgiven, they can’t override the constitution, Nigerians are being hurt and killed in their duties and those that killed them must be brought before the law.” – M. Buhari

16. He Is Anti-development: Buhari stopped the Lagos metro rail even when the military Administrator for Lagos State, alerted him that on the clause in the contract ($60 million metro rail project) agreement that would yoke the state into debt, if the contract was cancelled unilaterally. He replied: “Mudashiru, I don’t care”. Although the fund for the execution of the project which would have given Lagosians an intra-city light train transport system would not have come from Buhari’s Supreme Military Council, Buhari, cancelled this project of the state government, with ethnicity on his mind. Till date no Nigerian city has metro rail. Buhari out of jealousy of the leadership acumen of Dede Sam Mbakwe, he stopped all the wonderful projects initiated by him in Imo State when he overthrew the Shagari’s govt. Yet, Buhari left the govt without a legacy. What a man!

17. He Hates Education: Just like Boko Haram, Buhari is a supporter of the almajir system. No wonder President Goodluck Jonathan is the person that established the first and only federal university in Katsina State – Buhari’s State and 100s almaijiri’s model schools across the northern region. People like Buhari are against the almajiri schools.

18. He Is Weak: It is a fact that Tunde Idiagbo was the brain and pillar behind the govt of Buhari. No wonder Buhari was thrown out in what was regarded as a Palace Coup when Idiagbo went to Mecca. If Buhari that ruled with absolute power and iron-fist couldn’t protect his govt from being overthrown by junior officers, how could he safeguard and protect Nigeria in this turbulent time.

19. He Is A Product of Corruption And Nepotism: The manner and swiftness Buhari rise in the army can only be possible in a system where nepotism reign supreme. At 21, Buhari was cadet trainee; at 23 he was promoted as Commander 2nd Infantry Battalion; at 25 he was appointed Brigade Major, 2 Sector 1st Infantry Division; at 28, he was promoted Brigade Major and Commander, 31st Infantry Brigade; at 29 he was promoted Assistant Adjutant-General 1st Infantry Division Headquarters; at 34 he was appointed the military governor of North-Eastern State; at 39 he was appointed Chairman NNPC and GOC, 3rd Armoured Division, Jos, 1981-83; at 42, he shot his way to Dodan Barracks as Head of State. Most of these promotions were with no further education/training.

Buhari’s kids and people still use Quota system education (to enable them go to school) and federal character for them to get jobs. Imagine when a kid from Ebonyi State needs to score minimum of 112 in Common Entrance exams and another kid from Sokoto (a state that is older than Nigeria), Yobe etc., need only 9 and 2 respectively in the same exam. Remember that these kids wrote the same exam, in the same country, at the same time and answered the same questions. What corruption is worse than this? Yet Buhari has never condemned it.


20. Buhari Is Just Perpetually Unelectable: To those that still think Buhari would one day rule Nigeria again, ask Nasir El-rufai, he has the answer

Buhari, you are finished.
Let's all get something straight, formal education doesn't guarantee good governance and lack of it is not an indication of absence of leadership skills and other personality attributes necessary to perform and deliver on the KPIs of Good Governance. My thoughts are better captured in the following post by in The Nation Newspaper today.

"PDP National Secretary , Professor Wale
Oladipo , says this February Nigerians will
have to choose between Goodluck
Jonathan the PhD holder and Muhammadu
Buhari , the ‘ semi-illiterate ’ jackboot.

Oladipo isn ’ t saying Buhari cannot read
and write in English , Hausa or Arabic . He
isn ’ t accusing him of not passing through
the precincts of some primary , secondary
or military school. The former head of
state has been forcibly demoted to the
ranks of the illiterate because he didn’ t
attend a university.

Thankfully for the APC candidate that is
no hindrance to his aspirations as the
constitution only requires him to have
secondary school education – a
conditions he more than meets.

Given that Oladipo is some sort of
professor it is amazing he does not
understand that mighty accomplishments
are not a function of your string of
degrees. Some of the greatest business
leaders the world has ever known are
either university dropouts or never even
had the tertiary education experience.

Names like Microsoft founder and one of
the world’ s richest men , Bill Gates ; Oracle
founder , Larry Ellison, worth $28 billion
who dropped out of University of Chicago;
Chelsea Football Club owner , Roman
Abramovich, worth $11. 2 billion – a
college dropout who once sold plastic
toys out of his small apartment in Russia.
But the most interesting example is
Britain’ s war time Prime Minister Winston
Churchill who had a very poor academic
record in school. He struggled through
three independent schools before ending
up at the famous Harrow School.

After leaving Harrow he applied to attend
the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. He
would make three attempts before
passing the entrance examination.
Although he never went to university ,
Churchill is today regarded as one of the
greatest wartime leaders of the 20 th
century . He is the only British Prime
Minister to have won the Nobel Prize in
Literature since its inception in 1901 , and
has been voted the greatest Briton ever.

Strong leadership comes from your innate
character traits , not the number of paper
qualifications on your wall . Enough said."

I need someone to clearly and sincerely tell me if GMB will be able to maintain his cool professionally if faced with all the insults, name callings and problems Gej has been faced with.
The Buhari I know will lose out and misbehave, this is the difference between a phd and __________ (blank space for now cos we still can't find his qualifications or maybe Affidavit)

Common tender your certificates, we are having all these problems.

Anyway as for me, I would rather suffer with a GEj for another four years after which I will push for the likes of fashola and modern day leaders with vision, instead of a Buhari for another 8 years where southerners are marginalized, treated as second class citizens. Enough northern rule!!!...its enough!!!!....if they get power back, this rubbish existing in major federal institutions like the NNPC where 95 percent employees are mallams will not stop.
Refineries are filled with mallams and we expect the refineries to work!!!.
Power companies filled with mallams and we expect power??
Administrative bodies filled with mallams and we expect growth?......
If you are from the North, get a lower credit HND and you are into NNPC without any formal recruitment advertisement. Yet southerners with MSC are out there seeking a place to work....how won't our economy cripple!!!!!.....its about equity,....
Mallams who have no qualification of intelligence will be pushed with their population into office and when they get their they mess things up with their low IQ.
Please let's start thinking oh....

Everything Is happening all because of Mr Gej appointing Incompetent as leaders of the armed forces.........How d armed forces say they didn't have former head of state credential.....

It goes to show you that though Nigerians present themselves to be one of the smartest people on the face of the earth, when it comes to the important things in Life, majority are damned so stewpid!

Even in the University, there are courses called "PRE-REQUISITE" ...... you dont pass the "pre-requisite", you cant go on and take the higher "REQUISITE" course. Its that simple!

Ask: How come it is when someone who has ruled this country as "Head of the Army", "Commander-in-Chief", Presidential Aspirant for three good consecutive times, current Presidential Aspirant against the incumbent GEJ........ is being asked to present a Certificate A FEW WEEKS TO THE ELECTION?

*Does it mean that even the current Army Chief of Staff (and all current Army Officers for that matter) did not present (and therefore does not have) his own Certificate before becoming a General?

*Does it mean that INEC on those former THREE occasions, did not verify the General's qualification before putting his name on the Ballot?

*Does it mean that someone who headed PTF and held various NNPC/Governmental positions in this country, over so many years does not have a certificate or no one was intelligent enough to sight his Certificate all these years

Finally, If Gen. Buhari has ruled this country (assuming without a Certificate) in the past, his experience is enough to stand-him instead, for the same position! He has got the PRE-REQUISITE!

Of what benefit is the "clueless one" with his funny PhD degree, to the governance of this country, in the last six years?

When l see a DISTRACTION, l KNOW IT!

Jonathan and his henchmen are getting DESPERATE as we can see...... and are trying to achieve through the BACK-DOOR, what they are realizing they cannot achieve LEGALLY AND DEMOCRATICALLY!

The ONLY WAY for GEJ to win the coming election, is to RIG IT.... and we are beginning to see the symptoms now.


It started with INCE and all our Security Agencies playing DUMB, when the issue of excessive donations/lobbying money in the Jonatahn Campaign was raised! Suddenly, everybody involved was either "unaware" (Police), "out of the country" (EFCC Boss), "not informed" (INEC) or just suffering from memory loss!

Nigerians are "sharper" than this "Certificate ruse" intended to becloud our judgement and make us "vote clueless" again!
Certificate or not, we will vote Buhari come February. We are fed-up with GEJ's "moronic cluelessness".....despite his funny PhD.


Nigeria is getting funnier and ridiculous as the day passes-by!

Lastpage!

BTW: The Army PRO, Maj Gen Laleye did confirm that the Army has "Copies" of all serving and retired Military officers in its vault....thus, if Gen Buhari is truly a retired officer, then the Army HAS a copy of his Certificate, so what's the fuse about?

NairalandOP:


“What are the facts of this case? Before now, Gen. Buhari had contested elections for three occasions. Are you going to say that he didn’t present any certificate for those three times? He also had risen to the position of a Major General in the Army and all his credentials are well documented by the Army in those days. It is not only that he rose to the position of a Major General; he also rose to the position of a military Head of State

http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/news/national-news/192662-buhari-army-ridiculing-me-with-certificate-scandal
What is so difficult in getting them from where he kept them? Buhari is a liar just like past dictators of that nation who operate from a command or fraternity line to get positions without presenting necessary documentation. Northerners have been very good at that due to their military positions of opportunity in the past. Everything must follows rules and Buhari needs to provide his genuine certificates or should be booted out of the election.


We are tired of unqualified people ruling that country and making mess of the social-economic and infrastructural development of that country.

HE SHUD JUST THROW IN THE TOWEL. THIS WILL ENABLE HIM SIT FOR WASSCE. WHO KNOWS, HE MAY EVEN PASS AND, FLYING COLOURS. THEN HE COULD PRESENT HIMSELF TO NIGERIANS IN 2019 FOR ELECTION. THAT'S HOW Pecca SEES IT.

So, Buhari has presented FAKE Certificates as well, huh?

all4naija:

What is so difficult in getting them from where he kept them? Buhari is a liar just like past dictators of that nation who operate from a command or fraternity line to get positions without presenting necessary documentation. Northerners have been very good at that due to their military positions of opportunity in the past. Everything must follows rules and Buhari needs to provide his genuine certificates or should be booted out of the election.


We are tired of unqualified people ruling that country and making mess of the social-economic and infrastructural development of that country.

Haaa! So that this clueless Jonathan can WIN without any OPPOSITION? shocked shocked

This shows that Jonathan and his clueless gangs are already shivering and shitting in their pants....just knowing that Buhari's name is on the Ballot paper! grin grin

We tried Jonathan for SIX YEARS, he FAILED..... What else does he want?
"Only Fools keep doing the same thing over and over again, and expect a Different result"

We will try Buhari for at least FOUR YEARS and see where he gets us. SIMPLE!!

It goes to show you that though Nigerians present themselves to be one of the smartest people on the face of the earth, when it comes to the important things in Life, majority are damned so stewpid!

Even in the University, there are courses called "PRE-REQUISITE" ...... you dont pass the "pre-requisite", you cant go on and take the higher "REQUISITE" course. Its that simple!

Ask: How come it is when someone who has ruled this country as "Head of the Army", "Commander-in-Chief", Presidential Aspirant for three good consecutive times, current Presidential Aspirant against the incumbent GEJ........ is being asked to present a Certificate A FEW WEEKS TO THE ELECTION?

*Does it mean that even the current Army Chief of Staff (and all current Army Officers for that matter) did not present (and therefore does not have) his own Certificate before becoming a General?

*Does it mean that INEC on those former THREE occasions, did not verify the General's qualification before putting his name on the Ballot?

*Does it mean that someone who headed PTF and held various NNPC/Governmental positions in this country, over so many years does not have a certificate or no one was intelligent enough to sight his Certificate all these years

Finally, If Gen. Buhari has ruled this country (assuming without a Certificate) in the past, his experience is enough to stand-him instead, for the same position! He has got the PRE-REQUISITE!

Of what benefit is the "clueless one" with his funny PhD degree, to the governance of this country, in the last six years?

When l see a DISTRACTION, l KNOW IT!

Jonathan and his henchmen are getting DESPERATE as we can see...... and are trying to achieve through the BACK-DOOR, what they are realizing they cannot achieve LEGALLY AND DEMOCRATICALLY!

The ONLY WAY for GEJ to win the coming election, is to RIG IT.... and we are beginning to see the symptoms now.


It started with INCE and all our Security Agencies playing DUMB, when the issue of excessive donations/lobbying money in the Jonatahn Campaign was raised! Suddenly, everybody involved was either "unaware" (Police), "out of the country" (EFCC Boss), "not informed" (INEC) or just suffering from memory loss!

Nigeria is getting funnier and ridiculous as the day passes-by!

Please, keep sentiments aside and reason this
you have MEE111 as pre requisite to MEE222 in the university. Will you go and bring MEE333 as substitute for MEE111 so you will be allowed to register for MEE222 supposing MEE333 does not have pre requisite and you are a 400Level mechanical engineering student

Buhari has all the experience and whatever simply because mediocrity was allowed in the past, else he would have tendered his documents before assuming such an office in the past.

That said, since mediocrity has been allowed in the past, does that mean we should continue allowing it now?

Every right thinking Nigerian knows the simples and fastest solution to this problem is for Buhari to simply tender his credential.
On normal and right terms, If he got into the army as a cadre, he should have his O'level, FSLC and others.
Upon passing out as a second lieutenant, he will have a degree awarded him and this will show how intelligent a cadet he was as clearly shown on the certificate.
After passing out, he will grow slowly till he attains the rank of colonel after some trainings, certifications and awards. Then as a colonel he will go for higher officer course probably at the war college, upon passing war college convincingly he will be awarded other certifications before being promoted to the rank of Brigadier General....

He should have all these documents with him. That's not even what is being asked of him, its just O'level and his Cadet training school 'degree' if that was what he was awarded in his time.

There's a minimum requirement here, FSLC, O'level, BSC or equivalent.
If I want to employ you as a person and my minimum qualification is second class upper Bachelors degree or equivalent, then you come to me with an MSC and a PHD without BSc and O'level and no logical explanation why you don't have BSc and O'level I am entitled to question your MSC and Phd.

Let's speak truth for once.....

With the hopelessness of Nigerias current situation, and given the abyss to which Nigeria has been plunged especially in the past 4 years, ANY OPTION IS A BETTER OPTION THAN GEJ/ PDP.

Right now, Buhari is the only option.

And to the part in red, electing buhari is exactly doing the same thing and expecting the different results, buhari is just another mediocre like the PDP people who brought jonathan to Aso rock (OBJ)....they are all the same useless set of old fools destroying the lives of youths and wasting generations.

Bringing buhari in will mean another 8 years of foolishness. 8 years will be the minimum, if Buhari doesn't effect Amadu Bello's Northernisation policy where north comes first before foreigners then before other Nigerians. This will only keep power in the north until another civil war.

APC made the mistake of forwarding a buhari when they have people like Fashola, so right now I'd rather stay with Mr clueless and suffer another 4 years after which we all push for the caliber of people from modern day leadership, people like them Fashola et al..... But Buhari??..that will be another 50 years of pure backwardness and 'north slave south' epistle.

Let's think long term, if we can't all be equal then everybody should go their own way!!!!!!....

Jonathan is not keen on running alone, he has never asked to be left to run alone. He has widen the space for more parties and individuals to get involved and has never suppressed dissenting political views.
However, the rule is very simple. For you to qualify to contest election you must present to the INEC your certificates, it's that simple. Jonathan didn't make the rule Nigerians did and everyone no matter how powerful must comply with the rule. Buhari should save the nation, his party and himself all the stress by producing the certificates as required by law. Jonathan has done his, other aspirants too have done same , bothers me why he's dodging that.

Let's all get something straight, formal education doesn't guarantee good governance and lack of it is not an indication of absence of leadership skills and other personality attributes necessary to perform and deliver on the KPIs of Good Governance. My thoughts are better captured in the following post by in The Nation Newspaper today.

"PDP National Secretary , Professor Wale
Oladipo , says this February Nigerians will
have to choose between Goodluck
Jonathan the PhD holder and Muhammadu
Buhari , the ‘ semi-illiterate ’ jackboot.

Oladipo isn ’ t saying Buhari cannot read
and write in English , Hausa or Arabic . He
isn ’ t accusing him of not passing through
the precincts of some primary , secondary
or military school. The former head of
state has been forcibly demoted to the
ranks of the illiterate because he didn’ t
attend a university.

Thankfully for the APC candidate that is
no hindrance to his aspirations as the
constitution only requires him to have
secondary school education – a
conditions he more than meets.

Given that Oladipo is some sort of
professor it is amazing he does not
understand that mighty accomplishments
are not a function of your string of
degrees. Some of the greatest business
leaders the world has ever known are
either university dropouts or never even
had the tertiary education experience.

Names like Microsoft founder and one of
the world’ s richest men , Bill Gates ; Oracle
founder , Larry Ellison, worth $28 billion
who dropped out of University of Chicago;
Chelsea Football Club owner , Roman
Abramovich, worth $11. 2 billion – a
college dropout who once sold plastic
toys out of his small apartment in Russia.
But the most interesting example is
Britain’ s war time Prime Minister Winston
Churchill who had a very poor academic
record in school. He struggled through
three independent schools before ending
up at the famous Harrow School.

After leaving Harrow he applied to attend
the Royal Military College, Sandhurst. He
would make three attempts before
passing the entrance examination.
Although he never went to university ,
Churchill is today regarded as one of the
greatest wartime leaders of the 20 th
century . He is the only British Prime
Minister to have won the Nobel Prize in
Literature since its inception in 1901 , and
has been voted the greatest Briton ever.

Strong leadership comes from your innate
character traits , not the number of paper
qualifications on your wall . Enough said."

This is a very disgraceful and shameful omen to the apc honestly
Most apc supporters in my hood are beginning to lose faith with the party as they appear foolish without integrity in their efforts to explain buhari's illiteracy.
This is pathetic and apc needs to ask buhari to present his ORIGINAL Cert (if he has any) to INEC or replace that guy fast before they lose what's left of their credibility.

For God's sake we must obey our consitution and stop making that great grand father look stupidd

Yes, Nigeria is a joke to the international community because we allowed stupidity in the past, where a nothern boy (buhari) without o'level result could enter the Army as a second lieutenant and left as a Major General, but an Ojukwu from the south with O'level from kings college and Bsc from UK universities entered as a private and left as a lt colonel. This was the country we lived in where the North had all power, but now Nigerians are wiser and eyes are opened to their responsibilities so wrongs are pushed for to be corrected.
Buhari is one of the few men from that dark age still alive, he wants to come back then he should be ready to play by the rules put down to ensure sustainability of democratic development. He should simply tender the requirements and his supporters should stop screaming 'general'!!

When u know say requirement for admission into MSc program na BSC 2'1 and 5' o'level credits......if u no present your O'level uniben go probe LASU for giving u BSC without o'level on a normal day.....

Infact Buhari should be stripped of every military honor and rank self if he doesn't have the Basic O'level required to join the army as an officer cadet.

My advice for the Army is not for them to be involved in Politics of the day. I was once in the Nigerian Army though not for long but what I know is the whenever you are sent on any course of study, the Army keeps such certificates saying that any academic qualifications one gets while still in the force belongs to Army. Hence keeps such certificates. The Army Military Board should look into that and ome out with the truth and save Buhuri of all these embarrassments. Even senior and past Military men especially those retired should come out and say the truth and not play politics with this. The present corrupt Military should tell us if this law of withholding certificate has been changed.
