It is a very irresponsible source that you should not trust at all. It is a desperate site that want to get traffic through sensational falsehood.

Who is this man...
How relevant is he in the grand scheme of things..


Wikipedia to the rescue :
From November 1979 to December 1983 Aliyu was Director of Military Intelligence (DMI).[5] He played an important role in the coup that ousted President Shehu Shagari on 31 December 1983 and brought General Muhammadu Buhari to power.[6] Following the coup he was proposed as overall head of Intelligence, with the support of Chief of Army Staff Ibrahim Babangida, but the appointment was opposed by Buhari.[7] Buhari confirmed Shagari's appointee Muhammadu Lawal Rafindadi as director of the National Security Organization (NSO), and dismissed Aliyu from the DMI, replacing him with Colonel Halilu Akilu. Aliyu was sent on a training course at the Royal College of Defence Studies in Britain.[6]

Babangida and Abacha years
Aliyu was a player in the coup of 27 August 1985, when Babangida replaced Buhari. In the lead-up, due to the influence he had acquired as DMI, Aliyu was placed under intense surveillance and in turn placed pressure on the coup leaders to act swiftly.[8]

After the coup, Aliyu was appointed Director of the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) and Acting Director-General of the NSO from September 1985 to August 1986, then Coordinator on National Security from August 1986 to December 1989.[5] He reorganised the security and intelligence apparatuses, which had fallen in disarray under Rafindadi during the Buhari regime, breaking up the NSO into three organisations: State Security Services (SSS), National Intelligence Agency (NIA) and the Directorate of Military Intelligence (DMI).[9]

Aliyu was appointed General Officer Commanding 2 Mechanised Division, Ibadan (December 1989 – August 1990) and Chief of Administration, Defence Headquarters, Lagos (August 1990 to February 1992). He was Commandant of the Nigerian Defence Academy, Kaduna from February 1992 to January 1993.[5] Aliyu became National Security Advisor in January 1993, and was promoted to Army chief when Babangida passed control to the short-lived civilian government of the Nigerian Third Republic in August 1993.[7]

Once General Sani Abacha had consolidated power in November 1993 he replaced Aliyu by Chris Alli as chief of army staff.[7] Retiring from the army, Aliyu became chairman & chief executive of Alpha Public Affairs Consultancy from December 1993 until recalled as NSA by the newly elected President Olusegun Obasanjo in May 1999.[5]

appointed National Security Advisor by President Goodluck Jonathan on 8 March 2010. He held the same position during most of the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidency. Before that he was in military Intelligence, and was briefly Army Chief.[1] He resigned in September 2010, handing over to his deputy Kayode Are.[2] On 5 March 2014, President Goodluck Johnathan appointed Aliyu Gusau as defence minister. [3] Aliyu Gusau was erroneously reported to have resigned his position as Minister of Defence following an alleged altercation with the Chief of Defence Staff and failure of the three Military Chiefs to attend meetings with him..[4]

A man than can survive many regimes without any tangible thing to show for is a serious red flag. Bring him into your government at your own peril. To me he was virtually a ghost worker in gej government and did not come out one day to show how he is fighting or fought boko haram

Gen. Gusau. This are the people that destroyed PGEJ from the inside. He is only reaigning after doing a very good job for the generals. GEJ was just too foolish to trust the Core Northerners.

A Defense minister is needed to ensure civilian control over the military. The minister mainly handles the administrative side of things, leaving the Generals to focus on war-fighting.

This man is reputed for resigning. Isn't he the Security Adviser that resigned sometime ago under OBJ?

He resigned under GEJ before the 2011 General Election.

He resigned because he doesn't know how to write handover notes that will be read by an opposition government.

Why won't he run? Why won't he?

Problem is, most young Nigerians have a poor sense of history.

Aliyu Gusau was one of the primary reasons why Babangida plotted a coup which toppled Buhari in 1984.

Reasons- in 1984, at the height of Buhari's crusade against drug traffickers; there suddenly emerged overwhelming evidence which linked Aliyu Gusau (the chief security officer) to the drug cartel.

As Buhari moved to sack him and prosecute him; IBB got to know about this' and because he was also involved with drugs with Aliyu Gusau, they hatched a plan along with some other unsuspecting and ambitious officers whose major interests were -POWER AND MONEY.

The rest as they say is history.

Buhari should have an axe to grind with this man.

Aliyu Gusau stands at the very centre of most of the things gone wrong with Nigeria.

May God guide, bless and protect the peoples's General.

In Britain and America, officials resign when people lose confidence in them, or when their character is called into question.

In Naija, officials resign when their tenure remain one week!

Ignorance is a disease,no other Nigerian living or dead has a more comprehensive dossier of the dirty deals and soiled hands of Nigerian leaders and top govt officials spanning over 4 decades than Gusau.Before Gusau can smell the gate of any prison for corruption related offences, then he will release Buhari's dirty dossier and show cause why Buhari should first be rotting in the same prison
