Still On Vanguard Newspaper's Buhari Picture by Nobody: 5:52am On Feb 26, 2015
Xjet wrote a new note: #my corner.
Nigeria,our
dear nation. Humm!
A media house used a picture from their archive to
authenticate a news story,the said picture wasn't uploaded by Buhari or his cronies but by Guardian newspaper. But after a few ranting by a canterkerous misfit on Ado road,the Guardian newspaper posted an apology that they(not Buhari) used the picture in error. But because the enemies within wanted a slip from Buhari at all cost,they have been jumping on top of
d roof since,thinking they have scored a cheap political point.
From this saga, the following observations become imperative:
1.A media house can authenticate a story sometimes with available pix if they cant readily get an'on d scene pix.'
2.The first set of London pix uploaded by Buhari group
was d Twitter upload by Bukola Saraki. that was d group pix with Tony Blair.(perhaps dat was taken in Abuja too!)
3.Mr Tony Blair London office has since confirmed there
was indeed a meeting with GMB.Though the South West town crier said it was a poorly cropped photoshop pix.
4. All media houses dat used d pix of d said interview
actually got it from Guardian newspaper and not from Buhari or the APC.
5. One may not write off d possibility of complicity between Guardian newspaper and Fayose to use d pic to embarrass Buhari. This is Nigeria. Fayose was d first Nigerian to identify d very hotel room where d pix was taken. He is my state governor who is an ardent mischief maker. He can do it.
6. Even if Buhari actually went for treatment. Could it b out of place to seek medical check up after d gruelling campaigns across the country? Has a much younger GEJ or 'There ris God ooo' not gone for medical check up abroad a number of times before?
7.When has politics becomes trailing your opponents to
ascertain the name of the sachet water he drinks?
8. Left for Buhari,replying this campaigns of calumny is
like dignifying paper weight opportunists like Fani
Kayode,Obanikoro,Omisore et al. Once a General, always a General. He doesn't just talk.
9. I am not a politician or a member of any political party
but i began to have empathy and sympathy for the guy
Buhari because of d way his detractors are firing him with
fictitious and baseless allegations on per seconds billing.
In an attempt to discredit him,PDP ignorantly forced many neutrals like me to like him daily.

I was also wondering how Fayoshe got to know the exact room and location as pointed out (5). Definitely he was told by someone else who knows how his campain of calumny goes.

I can't remember GMB verbally attacking Aso Rock for once.

He had always focused on our various man-made National plagues which need to be fixed but let us not forget....GMB is about the only Nigerian Presidential aspirant who willingly sought for the office because of perceived anomalies and his resolve to amend them.

He has the zeal, the gut and mien for the job.....



Is it not logical that we all 'March' for him on 28th?

Can u b charitable enough to give us links to d twitter handles of d APC bigwigs dt tweeted such!

Personally, d source of dt pics was suspect all along and d fact dt Guardian Newspaper published a retraction on d pics being one of an Interview done in Abuja, put a death knell on that matter but its obvious some like the ilks of fayose want to achieve cheap political mileage frm ds-tokn abt tryin in futility to walk a dead horse up 10 storeys!

NLanders who will usually ask germane questions on the credibility of a news item, wt the first, for their potshots being the "SOURCE" of a news and this time the source of dt controversial pic. Obviously, political cleavages beclouded d reason of ds folks and they swallowed the news hook, line, trawler and even the fishing crew (Fayose n co). Now that the truth is finally out that it wasn't d APC nor Buhari n his media team who provided d pix to authenticate d news, they are uncomfy-"stomach trouble" sets in and they gladly spill d slimy junk of their viscera into the plate of their minions who frenziedly feast off their regurgitation.


What they fail to realise is dt neutrals lyk d OP who step back to look at the issues critically wl b swayed wen dy fynd out d ridiculous 50 shades of a political matter dt the PDP paints at successive sequence aint dt complicated and are what they are-Big Mac-sized lies with nothing in between!

I smell vultures, Hv got no carcass!

A mistake from where?
Do you know how many editors that guardian newspaper has ? Or are you telling me that guardian is now partisan and supports only APC ?

Fayose made their lies known to the world that they even suspected him of following buhari.
tell that bullshit to a baby.

This your post exposed the Buhari Campaign Organisation as clueless and inefficient. What is the work of his media organisation if not to debunk every negative claims with proven, incontrovertible evidence? What does it take to upload 2 minutes video of Buhari on Youtube eating or exercising. Considering the effect such will have? What does it take to organize for him to talk to people at London Townhall meeting through Skype? What does it take to join discussion on Sunrise Daily through skype for just 3 minutes?

Buhari's handlers are very myopic and unprofessional they only depend on sentiment, sympathy, lies and propaganda to sell their principal. Unfortunately, while these can take you far, it can never sustain you.

A mistake from guardian. They issued an apology already saying they provided a wrong picture for their headline or something along those lines.

When they posted his picture with Tony Blair, what did your likes do with the information? You guys said he was missing a leg (still can't believe people are that daft). They posted pictures with him and Saraki, you said it was 2013. Then with Amosun, oh we think it was 2013. Picture and video with Tinubu, this might have been 2013 o. They posted picture of him walking, they said he wore the same coat in 2013 or was it 2011.

Some of you guys decide to see what you want to see and block your minds to what doesn't favor you. These guys have been posting pictures from the day he got there
Re: Still On Vanguard Newspaper's Buhari Picture by Nobody: 9:50am On Feb 26, 2015
Buhari is a man of honour and we can all see that he doesn't attack anyone unless it's necessary..

Let them keep stalking him, we all know he's going to win this coming election...
Make all of the corrupt politicians park their loads and run as soon as he swears in because if they don't kirikiri awaits them...

Photoshop and APC's affinity to lies makes everything coming from them suspicious.
However, if you have ever use skype before, you will know that using Skype to greet those at London event yesterday, would have gone a long way to help his image.

Please educate us, what have they Photoshopped. I'm talking about something that came from APC officially. These lies you guys keep talking about, educate us on some of the lies.

What would Skype do please? If he Skypes, one or some of you will say "ah why Skype, he must be in the hospital or in jail or in Ibadan" "Did you see the Skype feed, he must be really sick, he looks it" "during the Skype session I saw a nurse walk in the background" and a hosts of anything that pops into these folks' heads. What's the point of trying to satisfy people that want to use every opportunity to demonize you.

Rily? U rily tink dt puts an end to ds whole unnecessary hoopla? U sincerely submit dt "skype" is d magic wand dt ends ds? Hmm...I cnt help but disagree wt u! The controversy surroundin d Generals certificate is still fresh Mr, and right now it seems to have died because a fresh carcass has been brought to d orgy.

Let me ask u ds; if a skype arrangement had bn put in place wd it change ur position about seeing GMB as u folks say "a Yar adua" waitin to happen?

Even wt a video of Tinubu n Buhari out, what effect has it had? It only fuelled d controversy because it gave u folks mo talkin points!

Its obvious dt ur hearts are hardened-worse than Pharaoh's and even if a "Big Brother" was run on GMB in London, folks like u wl believe watevr u choose to believe. mrmetoo1 has done justice to d points I wnted to call u out on and neither me nor d APC wl waste time on "sons of perdtion!

I saw a clown's thread where he took ds foolery a notch higher-in his thread he posited dt GMB ws nt only ill but went for Knee surgery and he showed pics with different angles of Buhari's knee-and other gullible vultures came and feasted on it. How ludicrous can some folks go?

In fact I need to follow you back. Their arguments make me weak. They take orders from their commander AyeDee and just litter the whole place with absolute rubbish and then someone is saying he should have given them more material for their pathetic comedy.

My brother, evn wen d Guardian (d same newspaper dt was dragged to court by Buhari on d libelous article by Abati dt bothered on d post-electn violence) had offered an apology n retraction on ds issue, u wl fynd out dt folks lyk "John124" who u had clarified n he had nt given u a mention back on dt regard wc signifies capitulation, wl still go on other threads n puke d dredges of their minds out...sons of perdition they are!

Its clear that the Guardian is playin to a script-do the dirty job n watch it achieve mileage then put out a retraction-wc is akin to bringin to an abrupt halt a racecar at d peak of its speed..."collateral mind damage" is what u get! This is what is playin out right b4 our eyes.
