He should be in jail for treasonable felony...dullard

Not treasonable felony, but actual treason. It's a worse offense.

According to the zombies, Buhari did not participate in the coup plot but he had no qualms bennefiting from an act of criminality.

Buhari is a criminal traitor

Buhari is no doubt a failure but the Shagari regime was as corrupt as any you can find in Nigeria.

The same excuse used by succesive coup plotters was the corruption argument.

The military regimes of Obasanjo, Buhari,IBB, Abacha and Abdullsalami were the most corrupt era in Nigeria. And that is a fact.

Obasanjo military regime - missing NNPC money, ITT scandal and a host of others

Buhari military regime - emptying of Nigerian treasury on the day of the coup which was meant as both a pension fund for the coup plotters if the coup failed and as pay off to western politicians to back the coup plot.

IBB - missing Gulf oil windfall amounting to over 10 billion dollars

Abacha - serial kleptomaniac who turned Nigeria to his private estate. His loot is still being recovered till this day and nobody is sure about the extent of his loot

Abdullsalami regime emptied the treasury to a tune of over 15 billion dollars before handing to civilian regime.

You have committed two logical fallacies in your submission slippery slope argument and straw man. I leave it as an exercise to you to find them in your post.
In any case, in principle, I do not have anything against violent overthrow of corrupt regimes. If a government messes up badly enough, it should be removed. All the western nations urging us to practice democracy would destroy their systems by force if they had the results we do. Under a sane system should Bubu or Saraki be anywhere near government at this stage of their failures ?

Wether you like it or not we remain a democracy and we will not bend to the caprices and whimps of a fiat military dictatorship anymore.
If your lot find the democratic process and the judicial system to slow for your liking then you can start an armed insurgency to carve out a North Korea for yourself.

I have suggested an armed insurgency for you since you see nothing wrong with violent overthrow of an elected govt.

Good luck in establishing your north korea

You are one of those half-baked people on NL without knowledge of history. Let me school you.

The UK had a coup detat under Cromwell to reset the system. France had military rule under De'Gaulle. Many coups have occured in Spain up till 1975. Despite appearances, the military has a big say in America. Thailand frequently resets the polity with coup detats. South Korea was put on the path of development by a military junta. Ghadaffi was a military ruler; he led Libya to unprecedented development. Rwanda is the fastest growing economy in Africa- Kagame entered power via military action.
Democracy in Nigeria is a sham. If you think what we practice in Nigeria is anything close to democracy, you need therapy.

I will not read or respond to any of your comments anymore.
Goodbye

So have we progressed or regressed since then.....despite all the interventions....

He always uses the word corruption to inflame and incite the public so he can use them to achieve his selfish desires ...I keep teli g Nigerians that our problem was no the coup of 1966 , our problem was not the civil war , it wasn't Babangida nor Abacha , it all started the day this bitter man called Buhari overthrew Shagari for no reason ...Do you know after the coup he didn't initiate or complete a single project anywhere in Nigeria , do you know after that coup Nigeria Airways stopped seeing passengers because many middle class Nigerians suddenly couldn't afford air tickets , do you know it was after his coup that Nigerians started buying used cars for the first time and it has not stopped till today ...that man is a curse

BanevsJoker:
There is a reason History was removed from the list of compulsory subjects in our school curriculum. The current generation of Nigerians are not only myopic and ignorant, there is also zero interest in self improvement and learning. This is all public knowledge, but supposedly educated Nigerians still support him. Even now that he is a ghost, they still support him and will vote his cadaver into office if they could. Nigeria will always have the kind of leaders Nigerians deserve. And yes, I have lost all hope in this contraption called Nigeria.

Those who fail to remember their past are condemned to repeat it.

Which Nigerians did in 2015 and are now suffering the consequences.

PLENTY of foreign students in OAU, ABU and UNILORIN. Try to pass JAMB and leave Imo State Polytechnic.

What was the % of University students then vs Now?

Use your brains when analyzing next time. You need better education in REAL schools.

PS- Yes Buhari committed treason, no doubt. Coup is treason no matter how good your intentions

...

Please can you let us know in your own words how history will remember president Buhari both as a military president and civilian president

juman:
He committed treason.

Even sheu shagari performed better than those greedy soldiers that overthrew him.

Hear what this mumu is saying. Those days, politicians were acting with absolute impunity and wanton looting of public funds was the norm. Umaru Dikko embezzled N4 billion when a brand new Peugeot 504 was being sold for N5000. Kano state governor Sabo Barkin Zuwo had N3 million hidden under his bed. Shagari had the most corrupt politicians under him and hoarding and stifling scarcity of essential commodities was the order of the day. Nigeria and its people have really suffered through all the past and present leaderships. God help us.

Children of bile having a filled day on this thread.
PMB giving Igbos migraine headache n sleepless nights since 1900.

No one knew the man was concocting evil against his President then. Fear the hearts of men.

greatgod2012:
Buhari committed treason, and never apologized to Nigerians!
Buhari truncated our democracy and still had the gut to campaign as democratic president!
Despite all these treasonable offences and without any apology, Nigerians still went ahead to vote for that same man........the problem is definitely with Nigerians and not him!

His hypocrisy is already biting him in the butt. The power he desperately hustled for, he can't enjoy.

I am tired of this govt .

I swear i can find buhari anywhere in the picture fa.
Somebody should helep me please

Mister know too much, what was the achievements of buhari, ibb, abacha governments after shagari.

Those were part of the military cabal that overthrew the then president.

TippyTop:
Traitor Buhari, he overthrew Shagari and few months later, plunged Nigeria into recession.

The Nigerian recession was from 1982.

Stop trying to rewrite history.

TippyTop:

Nigeria had been in recession even before he took over power. What was the reason every military coup happened? Corruption and a stagnant economy. What has been saving nigeria is oil.

Tribalisim was alive and well back in those days....by the way.

when foreign lecturers were last seen in Nigerian Universities
when foreign student were last seen
and when University Students ate chicken like groundnut daily
good old days, good old days bro

And when the number of Universities the Federal govt ran was 9, and the number of students was manageable. Not now when there are nearly 50 govt universities.....

Also, foreign students and foreign lecturers were still in my campus by 1999....evn up to 2006.

1.Oil prcies collapsed in 1982....and the economy went south

2.Umaru Dikko, Nigeria's minister of Information, said that Nigerians did not eat from dustbin in 1982...he was mocked...because they were eating from dustbin

3.By early 1983....Shagari was talking about austeirty (Buhari took over in Dec 1983).

4.Mismanagement was the order of the day. Rice import scam, Nigeria airways going down hill, etc.....we had problems then

5.That's when we lost our export edge in many agric production.

6.Buhari was not perfect. But when IBB removed him in 1985.....things got worse. (SAP).

7.pROBLEM WITH OUR LEADERS....Pmb inclusive....all of them think that selling oil helps us. It does not.

You guys are very good using keyboard, all the noise u ar making will bear no fruit except... Make my word except u have ur voters card

all i see here are wailing,moaning, groaning, weeping and gnashing of teeth. But buhari till 2023,
