PMB, Nigeria And Our Bruised International Image by Oloye2019(op): 1:47am On Aug 28, 2018
Nigeria, a nation of almost 200 million people, living together, despite the very diverse cultural heritage and ethnicity has experienced full fledge stress under the incubent president, Muhammadu Buhari. This stress has almost taken her to her elastic limit, if not up to breaking point. It is safe now to say that, "we are sitting on a keg of gun powder" and absolute care must be taken to avoid explosion of the already volatile relationship between all parties involved.

Much as we preach this peace, it has become very necessary to call out those who are partly responsible for dividing this nation. Chief among them is the Nigerian sitting president.

It should be recalled that president Buhari's divisive speeches started to become notable after the 2011 presidential election, an election he lost to Ex president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. Buhari is quoted to have said

“If what happened in 2011 (alleged rigging) should again happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and the baboon would all be soaked in blood.’’
[https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/may/11/buhari-agrees-nigeria-is-corrupt-but-how-is-he-tackling-it|Guardian]

Immediately after Mr Buhari's swearing in as Nigeria's president, precisely on the 22nd of July, 2015, the president, responding to a question far away in the United States of America said:

“I hope you have a copy of the election results. The constituents, for example, gave me 97% [of the vote] cannot in all honesty be treated on some issues with constituencies that gave me 5%.”. He had been asked the question below: "My question relates to another area of Nigeria that hasn't gotten a lot of attention during this trip and that is the Niger Delta. It's a challenge that you are going to face. I wonder if you would tell us how you intend to approach it with particular reference to the amnesty, bunkering, and inclusive development?"

Again, on the 11th of May, 2016, Buhari, reacting David Cameron's comment that Nigeria and one other country was "fantastically corrupt" asked: "What will I do with a Cameron's apology?", After he had answered "Yes" to a question "is Nigeria really corrupt"

On October 14, 2016, On a visit to Germany, Buhari said:
"I don't know which party my wife belongs to, but she belongs to my kitchen and my living room and the other room."
Mr Buhari was standing next to Chancellor Angela Merke, in Germany.

On the 19th of April, 2018, Mr Buhari in London said that: “More than 60 per cent of the population is below 30, a lot of them haven’t been to school and they are claiming that Nigeria is an oil producing country, therefore, they should sit and do nothing, and get housing, healthcare, education free,” the infamous "Nigerian Youths are Lazy" comment.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/265484-buhari-criticises-nigerian-youth-as-lazy-uneducated.html

During a February 2016 interview with UK Telegraph, Mr Buhari said some Nigerians in the UK, mostly youth, are disposed to criminality and should not be granted asylum there.

It should be noted that almost all the above statements credited to the president were made outside the shores of Nigeria, before international media. A president who is suppose to be a father of all, a unifying factor in the country made such divisive statements ; failed to demand an apology from British Prime Minister for insulting his Nation and called his youths, which he agreed form 60% of the natuon's population lazy.

Now, we begin to wonder why America and her president called him "Lifeless" and would not want to "ever meet with him again? "

First it was Cameron and Britain, then there was the sly look from Merkel of Germany (she could not say what was actually on her mind since Buhari was her guest at the time). Now it is Donald Trump and America.

If you have been embarrassed or have embarrassed yourself before Britain, Germany and America, tell me, who will ever take you serious in the world!

We have become more divided now and our international reputation in shambles than we have ever been in this country.

This is my personal opinion.

The lifeless president and his many sins. Just like 1983 he was clueless and sent us into recession,now he has done the same holding on to power at all cost.
Only thieves, lazy vagabounds, senile idiots and unrepentant dogs lacking decency in every regards support buhari that steadily grew poverty while mortgaging the future generations into debt.

It is what “Nigerians” deserve, since 1966. How can you want a return to democracy and yet bring back the same thugs who don’t have any business outside of barracks to rule or even be the candidate for the opposition party for 4 straight elections.....


That is why the World calls una shythole, and really its your minds that are shytholes....
Re: PMB, Nigeria And Our Bruised International Image by BeeBeeOoh(m):
In 1984, Buhari said that Nigerians are Useless, Senseless and Indiscipline, we no too vex.


Same Buhari concurred that we're fantastically corrupt, we no too vex.


Buhari called Nigeria's youths lazy, we no too vex.


Then, why are his media crew angry that Trump called him "A Lifeless President? They should learn from us nah, we no dey too vex for one matter nah

The next person after the lifeless fossil will work extra hard to redeem the battered image buhari reduced them to. Yet some retards are still singing the praises of the old and lifeless vegetable who keeps disgracing them up and down just because of a mere 30,000 monthly stipend. Wasted youths!!
Re: PMB, Nigeria And Our Bruised International Image by Ojiofor: 7:23am On Aug 28, 2018
The rest of the world will see Nigerians are idiots if Buhari is re-elected in 2019.His coming to office was an embarrassing mistake in 2015.Nigerians have no excuse to re-elect an ancestor who is unaware of happenings in his home.
