Will meeting the pope actually end the existence of Boko boys in Nigeria? If it could, the Catholic bishops would have put an end to insurgency in Nigeria long before now. I beg, free Buhari. He wont kill himself o. Let him do his best and leave the rest to God who doesnt need the permission of the pope or any human before taking actions including dealing with terrorism.

jezzzzzz I can't believe ppl are thinking like this.but if it was gej ,then it is gej fault abi?doesn't he have an timetable of all the events and functions he was supposed to attend?so if it was buhari private business and if missing such an important meeting will cost him losses amounting to billions,do you think he will miss it? We have a clueless bunch of dullards in power who doesn't know what and what is required of them at any given time. This is the second Time in less than 72hrs that the Nigeria delegation has missed 2 crucial meetings and you the tax payers are saying it isn't buhari fault!!!!! I guess you are right because it is actually the fault of Nigerians for voting in a 74yrs old retired soldier as their president when there are younger vibrant and more intelligent Nigerians who can do the job better and who would have saved Nigeria all these embarrassments
Don't mind them!

A clear case of sabotage. The Nigerian permanent Representative to UN is one Joy Ugwu appointed by Dumbo-GEJ. All the while GEJ was president and attended such events, she never messed up. But suddenly, she can't plan simple itinerary for PMB. If PMB should fire her, Biafra and wailers will claim PMB hates the Ibos. But these Mad CoWs don't see anything wrong in her sabotaging and embarrassing PMB. We are watching. Time shall tell.
You guys should have really stayed in school,attend classes rather than play truant.
Joy Ogwu was appointed Nigeria's Rep to the UN by President Yar'Adua in 2008.GEJ became president 2010.He inherited her as rep same way Buhari did,get informed before spewing stupidity all over the place.

The protocol Officer and his retinue of staffs should be punished for the manner they have handled Mr President meetings, of note is the office of Nigerian Permanent Representative at the UN, thier failure showcases gross negligent for the multiple embarrassment to Mr President.

Embarrassment As Jonathan Misses Speaking Slot At AU Gathering






Embarrassment As Jonathan Misses Speaking Slot At AU Gathering

By SaharaReporters, New York
[b]President Goodluck Jonathan today missed the opportunity to give a speech at the ongoing Special Assembly in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the African Union (AU).
Two members of President Jonathan’s delegation spoke to SaharaReporters from Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia which also serves as the secretariat of the AU. They reported that there was confusion among delegates as well as embarrassment on the part of Nigerian officials when Mr. Jonathan failed to show up in the hall to deliver his speech.

Mr. Jonathan’s “no-show” reportedly set tongues wagging as delegates from other African nations asked confused Nigerian officials why their president did not appear to address the AU on an occasion as important as this year’s assembly. The AU was inaugurated 50 years ago and known for many years as the Organization of African Unity (OAU). In the 1970s and 1980s, Nigeria was one of the organization’s most dynamic members, using international diplomacy as well as funds to push for the liberation of Mozambique, Namibia, Zimbabwe and South Africa.[/b]


[b]But another source scoffed at both excuses. “If the president was in the toilet, his aides should have informed the protocol at the summit to delay in calling him to speak. And if the president wanted to hold a bilateral meeting, why should he fix it during the time he was told he would address the assembly??” He added that somebody within Mr. Jonathan’s inner circle disclosed that the Nigerian president had stayed up till late eating and drinking with members of his inner circle. Mr. Jonathan also reportedly spent a long time consulting with some of his governor associates back in Nigeria about ways to push back against the Nigerian Governors Forum that yesterday elected Rivers State Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi as their chairman. Mr. Jonathan, who has had a long-running political feud with Governor Amaechi, had backed Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State for the post of chairman of the governors’ group. Mr. Jang’s defeat rattled the president, several sources told SaharaReporters yesterday.

“Mr. President was up very, very late. But he had been up that late at night and still woke up in time to honor his appointments,” the source said. “But today, he did not seem to realize that addressing the assembly was an important obligation.”[/b]

Our two main sources said they and other Nigerian diplomats were shocked and embarrassed when Mr. Jonathan’s name was called to give his speech but the Nigerian head of state was nowhere to be found. “The official summit announcer called Mr. President a few more times, and then the program went ahead to another speaker,” said one source.

Mr. Jonathan later showed up to join in the photo-op session at the meeting and disappeared shortly afterwards without offering any explanation for his absence when it was his turn to speak.

Among those at the AU’s assembly were President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe as well as former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Not only was Buhari made to come in late to the meeting because of untidy arrangements, he also took a wrong gate rather than the one reserved for presidents and heads of state...WRONG GATE...

According to the report,he wasn't at fault,it wasn't intentional and as a disciplinarian,he knew he shouldn't be late to meetings,but to keep people's mouth shut about being too religious,he decided to attend the meeting even though he was late and might be embarrased.What else do we want?
What about the all important boko haram meeting?

Shut up! You have nothing tangible to contribute to this thread. Maybe you skipped the place where the reason he didn't go in time was stated. Read it now!



Now ask yourself "Who are the Nigerian UN mission staff? Who is to blame? Buhari? Or them?" Why didn't they brief him? Those people are so incompetent. If Buhari decides to sack those Nigerian UN mission staff when he's back to Nigeria now and appoints a competent Northerner who he trusts, you and your fellow wailers would still wail and shout marginalisation and favouritism!!
I was actually reading your comment until you said "Competent Northerner"

THE TRUTH IS, THERE WAS NO PLAN TO MEET THE POPE BEFORE LEAVING NIGERIA BUT JUS LIKE THE LAST MINUTE ARANGEE SPEECH AT CHATHAM HOUSE BEFORE ELECTIONS AND THE TONY BLAIR MEETING. APC TRIED TO DO ANOTHER FAST ONE BUT THE POPE AINT FOOLISH LIKE TONY BLAIR AND BRITAIN.
You are right .... last minute arrangement....old age no let ham meet up

dabigwalls:
Truth in my opinion is that the personal capacities of Mr. President now as he has rightly affirmed is that there is a limit to the efficiency that he can demonstrate. At his age, and having undergone terrible human conditions of living, (some of which he contributed to) in a world of military dictatorships and economic squalor induced by the military and their civilian cohorts, it is foolhardy to expect superlative performance from Mr. President.

We should thank God for his integrity but can he work out budgetary allocation on a spreadsheet?
good question

And we were out in the cold guarding the pope.
A whole president of a country made it late to meeting the pope.

Nigerians, enjoy your dullard president.
Keep quite here. Who is the Pope? Is he God? Even God would still open the door even though you are late because He is merciful. Who is the Pope then that he should bar my President from meeting him because he came late? Except this news is false else, who is he?
