PoliticsRe: Nigerians React To Suicide Bomber Who Shouted ‘Sai Buhari' - PM News by shawl: 10:30am On Jun 03, 2015
tucky200:
If u can shw me where it is written in d holy quran that islam support killing and judging of oder people without d law..then I defect wit immediate effect..
They can't.

They are just out to copy and paste trash against Islam due to inner hatred, simple.

But here is the promise of Allah (God Almighty) in the Holy Quran sure to come to pass:

Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait
For the transgressors, a place of return,

...

The Day that the Spirit and the angels will stand in rows,
they will not speak except for one whom the Most Merciful
permits, and he will say what is correct.

That is the True Day; so he who wills may take to his Lord
a (way of) return (by repenting).

Indeed, We have warned you of a near punishment on the
Day when a man will observe what his hands have put forth
and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I were dust!"

- Holy Quran.

With the level of "hate-journalism" (my phrase) practiced by AIT before, during and even after the campaigns, it is right and justifiable if the
security detail attached to Buhari temporarily bans them until after the swearing-in at least. My reasoning is informed by events that led to the Afghan war where a suicide bomber dressed as a journalist blew himself up killing Abu Maqhood who was opposed to the Taliban Govt. while pointing a microphone at him at a press conference. Remember George Bush jr. dodging shoes also at a packed press conference in Iraq? More importantly, it is not distant memory that Gen. Buhari escaped a suicide attack in Kaduna thus, taking precautionary measures against a hostile TV station is pre-emptive thinking and perfectly reasonable.

Why would anybody believe in the "Good Morning" greeting from a soldier who is being investigated on AWOL charges? How did this dude named Sagir rise to the rank of captain? Nigeria is really a mess.
We have to realize that this is not the usual greetings in close proximity. This has to be shouted from afar, especially when the entity receiving the words is mightier and may not consider it friendly.

Also, is loyalty justified even when it results to trampling upon enabling a level playing ground? I am asking this just in case the content of Sagir's tape is authentic?

For those of you that said first lady's place is in the kitchen

Eve was not formed out of Adam's head to control him, neither out of his feet to be trampled on by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected by him, and near his heart to be loved by him. "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her" Ephesians 5:25
Can you also explain these other verses:

This is subtle beginning of islamization of Nigeria. In Saudi Arabia and other islamized countries, women don't do sports, don't drive and are not valued. Buhari will certainly live up to expectations of islamization of the country.
It is not about Islamization but about delivering justice and transparency in a constitutional Nigeria. Even in the bible we have this. You may draw lessons from the below if you are a christian.

Before you go all Tyson on me, am neither a supporter of GEJ nor Buhari, neither do i have a party affiliation - although i might prefer Buhari to rule Nigeria because it seem we have no other option, not that he is the best we could have as a country, he just seems a lil better than the sitting president.

Now back to my argument; why would you want a 72 year old to rule you for 19 years? isnt that ludicrous or u just dont have any hope whatsoever in you, your generation and other younger prospects? that could deliver 21st century class leadership?
Essebsi, has just won the Tunisian president at 88 years. By the time he leaves, he shall be 92. The people trust in his quality of leadership that is why they can vouch for him even at that age. If GMB rules for 19 years he shall only be 91, still one year short. All we need is quality leadership though.

In other words it means women lack value and the post of first lady is valueless and just ceremonial.

Buhari u won't win so stop planning thrash
It does not mean that women lack value. In fact, there is the ministry for women affairs which is constitutionally established to tackle women problems and help improve them. The office of the first lady, though unconstitutional, now holds sway with a vast budgetary allocation and a source of unnecessary distraction to the office of the president.

Change2015:
Keep repeating lies, but the truth is here to find you!

1. Major General Muhammadu Buhari never said he will make Nigeria ungovernable in 2011 in any public format

2. It was a PDP politician, Alhaji Lawal Kaita who actually said Nigeria would be ungovernable if Jonathan became president in 2011.

3. It was Jonathan’s media spokesman, Reuben Abati who sat down and largely concocted the slanderous libel against Buhari’s name in April 2011.

4. General Muhammadu Buhari took Reuben Abati to court for damaging his name.

5. The Jonathan Presidency begged Major General Buhari to settle the case with Reuben Abati and the Guardian out of court.

6. General Buhari obliged and settled out of court. Reuben Abati with The Guardian published an unreserved apology to Buhari in the Guardian of 11th July, 2013.

7. Late General Azazi referred to the PDP “ungovernable” crises and anger that did actually lead to Boko Haram terror franchise hired by the PDP.

PoliticsRe: How Stable Was The Naira Under Gen. Buhari? by shawl: 5:15pm On Dec 21, 2014
I think the comparison should be done with the government of IBB that followed.

Using your own figures from N1.7 (buhari) to N21.9 (IBB) shows a 1135% depreciation. Do the math.

That is using percentage comparison.

When you use the shift in decimal position, then it is 1 naira maximum for GMB and over 20 naira for IBB. Even GEJ's government has surpassed this 20 naira shift now which is what really matters because it is easy to establish higher percentages when the figures are really small, a strategy which you are using to hoodwink the unsuspecting reader.

datolee:
Sometimes I feel for the “poor” Nigeria voters who are constantly fed with half-truth and in some instances, outright lies. We are at it again, being told how perfect, stable Naira was under Buhari. To even quote GMB, . http://www.thecable.ng/exclusive-interview-im-opposed-muslim-muslim-ticket-says-buhari/2

Two things are involved here:

1. At no point during the administration of IBB was naira N80 to a dollar, the highest it was at parallel market was N21.90

2. When Buhari took over in 1983, the Naira was exchanging for N 0.724 to a dollar, by the time he left office, the Naira was exchanging at between N1.5 to 1.7 in the parallel market. We will make use of the N1.5 exchange rate.
From 1983 to 1985, the Naira moved from 0.724 to 1.5 representing a 107% depreciation of the Naira!

The question therefore, with 107% depreciation of naira from 1983 to 1985, how stable was the naira under Buhari?
