A very dull and short sighted president. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2015/07/how-yaradua-was-pressurised-to-revert-refineries-sold-to-dangote-obasanjo/amp/ reversed sale of refineries to dangote, refused to step down even with chronic illness and also created amnesty to pay criminals and allow his goons loot funs. A failure

Musa yaradua was a good leader, I wish he completed his tenure. His brother Shehu was another remarkable man.

Yaradua was not a fanaticist and he was not clanish like Mr.Lifeless and he also understood the rules of governance.

God is more than capable of giving us his like or even better as a president again but we all need to repent very sincerely and abandon sins and wickedness. Nigeria has all the potentials (wealth resources, intellectuals...) to be great but challenged with leaderships and their madness for the love of corruption and hatred for the masses.

One day we'll be there but I'm afraid we may need to go our separate ways before that could be possible with the overbearing and lordship attitude of those who believe the North is born to rule.

One great highlight that i always remember about President Umaru Musa Yaradua was his promise that Nigeria will have STABLE POWER SUPPLY by December, 2010. I just imagined of he was alive till that time: He will have done it.

For a Nigerian President to publicly declare his assests, he was indeed a rare gem... No be beans!!!

This duo Yar'adua/Jonathan would have at least moved this backward and lifeless country a little bit forward if death had allowed Yar'adua.

But see where we are stuck after so many years.

I sincerely don't think Nigerians deserve good leaders.

Tissaia:
Fake he never likes Yar'adua. His types will never like us
They wanted Yar'adua dead and they got it.
Right now they wanted Buhari dead, they never knew anything about Abba kyari but they celebrated his dead they killed sarduana, tafawa balewa, Gen Hassan Katsina and many more

Praise be to Allaah.
Allaah has stated in His Book that the kuffaar bear enmity towards us and they would not spare any effort to cause us harm, and they wish us ill, and they will not be pleased until we follow their way. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitaanah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends) those outside your religion (pagans, Jews, Christians, and hypocrites) since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain to you the Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand.

119. Lo! You are the ones who love them but they love you not, and you believe in all the Scriptures [i.e. you believe in the Tawraat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel), while they disbelieve in your Book, the Qur’aan]. And when they meet you, they say, ‘We believe.’ But when they are alone, they bite the tips of their fingers at you in rage. Say: ‘Perish in your rage. Certainly, Allaah knows what is in the breasts (all the secrets).’

120. If a good befalls you, it grieves them, but if some evil overtakes you, they rejoice at it. But if you remain patient and become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious — See V.2:2), not the least harm will their cunning do to you. Surely, Allaah surrounds all that they do”

[Aal ‘Imraan 3:118-120]

“Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) till you follow their religion. Say: ‘Verily, the Guidance of Allaah (i.e. Islamic Monotheism) that is the (only) Guidance.’ And if you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) were to follow their (Jews and Christians) desires after what you have received of Knowledge (i.e. the Qur’aan), then you would have against Allaah neither any Wali (protector or guardian) nor any helper”

[al-Baqarah 2:120]

Ibn Katheer (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: The words of Allaah, “Take not as (your) Bitaanah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends) those outside your religion” mean people other than you, the followers of other religions. A man’s bitaanah (advisors, friends, etc) are his closest friends who know about his private affairs. Then he narrated the report of Ibn Abi Haatim with his isnaad from Ibn Abi’l-Dahqaanah, who said: It was said to ‘Umar ibn al-Khattaab (may Allaah be pleased with him): There is a slave from the people of Heerah who is literate; why don’t you employ him as a scribe? He said: Then I would have taken a bitaanah from people other than the believers. Ibn Katheer said: This report, along with this verse, indicates that it is not permissible to employ ahl al-dhimmah as scribes in a position of authority over the Muslims where they can become acquainted with their private affairs, where there is the fear that they may disclose them to enemies among ahl al-harb. Hence Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely”.
