I strongly feel that the religious profiling and wholesale demonization of a voting demography through such appellations like “Yoruba Muslims” or “Fulani jihadists” will only ensure that Buhari’s supporters double down on their support for the current regime. On numerous occasions, our igbo brothers have made me make some remarks I don’t really mean as a way to spite them for their blackmail of my tribe’s (Yoruba)voting choices.

Just as I was obligated (at some point in history) to support the current regime, Nigerian Muslims will also want to ensure that Buhari wins in 2019 to prove a point to the igbos. It is no secret that more than my dislike for igbos, I dread Islam more. My islamophobia is not due to any personal slight done to me by any Muslim but a result of my realization that Muslims can separate their religion from politics thus giving birth to political Islam.

That being said, it is important that we anti regime elements acknowledge that we can’t vote out this regime if we demonize Muslims who have a large voting strength in Nigeria. The task of effecting change in aso rock next year should be a collective one and not circumscribed to a religious or ethnic slugfest. The major contenders for the Presidency in 2019 are Muslims from the north, so why should we demonise some Muslims (notably Yoruba Muslims) for their support for Buhari?

I am also guilty for making snide remarks against a whole faith because of the deeds of the President and his Fulani kinfolk. But I have realized that that is a myopic way to tackle the problem of how to vote out this regime. Accordingly, we need to constructively engage and convince Buhari supporters who are Muslim of the need to view the politics of 2019 with patriotic lens. We do not oppose this regime because the President is a muslim or Fulani. Rather, we oppose him because he is not good for the continued cohesion and progress of a multi ethnic and religious nation like Nigeria. He’s also inept economically to steer us out of the economic ditch he got us into in the first place.

So, I urge the igbos (I don’t mean to intentionally single out a whole ethnic group but they are the ones guilty of this transgression) to play politics with tact by eschewing the politics of prejudice, blackmail, blame and hasty generalization. We need as much Muslim votes as we can muster to vote out Buhari in 2019. We should resist the temptation of dividing ourselves on ethnic and religious basis in this onerous task to rescue Nigeria. Most of us are still in the process of emigrating but in the meantime, we should make sure that we play our part in ensuring that this regime doesn’t have a second four year stint in the saddle. The consequences of another 4 years for this regime are better imagined than experienced. As it is, Buhari is poised to snatch a re-election due to the lack of cohesion amongst the opposition and the division amongst Nigerians of different religious and ethnic persuasions.

Removing Buhari is not about hate for Islam or Fulani. It is a call to duty for every patriotic Nigerian. If we succeed in getting Buhari out, it is still a Muslim and Fulani that will occupy the Office, just a more liberal and fair one.

Let us stop demonizing Yoruba Muslims who still support Buhari as that will radicalize and drive them to the other side (side of the regime). This will inexorably mean we lose large votes that could have been vital to remove Buhari.

Igbos please take note of my advice and your insults are welcome as usual.

Happy Easter. He is risen.

Selah.

I know you are a staunch Buhari supporter and you are Muslim. As an omoluabi, I show you love today and I urge you to reconsider your support for this regime.

Do you think Nigeria can survive another 4 years under Buhari?

Reconsider my support for this regime and start supporting who?

God forbid. Something has to give but I assure you Buhari will not do another 4 years as long as God is on the throne.

Support any other Hausa if you so wish but Buhari is a no no for Nigeria.

Millions will die or become redundant if he does another 4 years (God forbid).

Other Hausa like Atheifkwu or Sule Lamido?

PMB is competent only fools will vote base on religion and tribal faction...



I support candidates base on what they will offer irrespective of their religion or tribe.

Igbo's (not all but majority) vote base on sentiments, for their mind they think PDP is a Christain and southern party but unfortunately they failed to understand that majority of PDP stakeholders are Muslims and Northerner's. Go and do your findings


Once again PMB till 2023

See ehn, if you say it must be Buhari by force and try to rig the election next year, you risk a war and I can assure you that the US under the able leadership of Donald Trump would not support Buhari over and above Nigerians.

The elites are working to have him removed already so you can keep acting confident on Nairaland. You can be sure that Buhari is not doing another 4 years as President of Nigeria. Millions of lives are at stake.

If buhari is to contest again, he ll win.
No enemy of my state has ever said he will win,survive or live.
The words of our enemies are equal to the bitter truth of our friends.

Funny you, Trump will leave his primary assignment and start fighting for PVC or what? Baba is entitle to recontest and Nigerians have the right to vote for their choice of candidate.
So don't let anyone deceive you. The broua broua from OBJ is to distract people like you and shrink Atiku ambition more more.
If Allah SWT preserve Sai Baba till 2019, in good state of health, then I don't see him losing the election.

Na wa oo. As for Buhari, God keeping us all to 2019 and beyond, we shall see.

The will of God must come to pass in the coming election.
It's what God wants for this country that will happen and not what anyone is planning.
But verry funny that 9months to election, no serious contender yet.

No formidable opposition party and no serious aspirants.
How do you now hope you are going to defeat incumbent that has everything at its disposal?
The reality on ground is this, only miracle would make Buhari lose the next election.

But i personaly think Buhari should go and rest.
He has done his best but his best is not good enough.

For the sake of peace and the continued existence of the country his core base love so much, he should decline running else there’s no telling what will happen. The man is too divisive for Nigeria. It is a very simple issue.

This is Nigeria and not yemen or Afghanistan.

Whether Buhari wins the next election or not, Nigeria is a doomed nation, already teetering at the edge of the precipice. A shove and it's over the cliff into oblivion.

So far, so bad. Nobody that has thrown his hat into the ring can bring any meaningful change to this country.

The fallacy is to believe that since democracy works for America, it must work for other countries too.

A firm and just autocratic unelected ruler is what most African nations need just like the fictional Wakanda or even the existing UAE.

Africa will always be backwards until we discard the neocolonial toga of democracy.

This isn't about them, its about what will work for us.

Until then, good luck recycling old fuddy duddies who don't have a clue about anything, in power.

When Igbos voted for Shagari and yaradua...there was no sentiment abi.

Now that they have not voted for Buhari based on his precedents...and everyone has seen how clueless he is...who do you think voted on sentiments...?

If he wins, then we shall descend into full scale conflict that might determine the nationhood question. Obasanjo, the poster boy for the CIA in Africa is already working underground to scuttle a Buhari comeback.

The most powerful retired generals are also against his comeback. The only force Buhari has is the Nigerian Army controlled by his Fulani clown and millions of Almajiris in the north. Let’s see how he will defeat the rest of Nigeria and the international community with that.

You talk like Buhari is a good person. What exactly is good about Buhari?

fk001:



You guys just hate Buhari without concrete reason...

You have started to shift goal post after puncturing your lies.

Buhari started the hatred first when he choose a Nigerien Fulani than an Igbo man from Nigeria for OAU job. He also showed his love for the north and hatred for the SE when he was in PTF. He did very little in the SE. He is repeating the same wickedness and hatred when every region is represented in the security and service chiefs level. Not a single person from SE.

How vindictive could he be? But he is well known for that:

let me tell something that will happen in Nigeria. You see buhari has the army, the police, the air force and all security agencies under his firm grip. As a matter of fact, the inec chairman is also northerner and an islamist. Considering the scenerio ,there is nothing much the opposition can really do. Even if pmb looses the main election, I am convinced they will go any length to rewrite the election result just so that the aso rock demon will remain as the president till 2023.

So believe me brother pmb will win election but there is going to be a devine intervention. Pmb will have a serious sickness that will take away his life. I am telling you what I have seen, believe it or not pmbs tenure beyond 2019 will be completed by osibanjo and then osibanjo will win the main election in 2023. Mark my word,it will happen. Evil will not continue in Nigeria.
