Politics / Breaking News: APC Recruits Obasanjo As 'Navigator'!!! by XueRengui: 7:35pm On Dec 27, 2014 |
Former governor of Lagos State and one of the leaders of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has asked Nigeria’s former leader, Olusegun Obasanjo to serve as a navigator for the party. Tinubu made the call Saturday night, when a delegation of the party’s leaders met with Obasanjo in Abeokuta, capital of the western Nigerian state of Ogun. “You have come out of tribulation and held the highest position in this country. We are here because of your courage and salient points. Nobody can say he has information more than you,”Tinubu said. Obasanjo, 3rd right with APC leaders “You have surmounted a number of crises. Nigeria is divided more than before. To realise a stable Nigeria, we want to encourage you to continue to speak the truth. We have resolved and determined to rescue Nigeria. We want you to be our navigator”, he added. The interim National Chairman of APC, Chief Bisi Akande,also a former governor of the state of Osun, told Obasanjo: “We have come to introduce our party to you; we are in the support of the 18-page letter written to Jonathan, you are capable”. Imo State governor, Rochas Okorocha, who now chairs the 16 governors of the party urged Obasanjo to be upright on the issues concerning Nigeria. ” Many of the governors passed through your political school, the battle is for the generation on board. It is a task that must be done”. Obasanjo praised the APC for enhancing democracy in Nigeria through its reactions to issues, but also urged the party to play politics without bitterness. Vanguard Online however reported that Obasanjo turned down the request to become a member of the party. ” I am a card carrying member of the PDP but the politics I play traverses Nigeria, Africa and the world in that order,”Obasanjo said. ” I am a democrat and one of the essential ingredients of democracy is opposition. A democracy that has no opposition built into it is not democracy. “In whichever party, for whatever office that contested or aspired in Nigeria since 1999, such a person, young or old man or woman can claim to be my political child and I can claim to be by virtue of the political office I have held. I can also claim to be political father; so, you are here and you are welcome”. In attendance at the meeting, apart from Tinubu, Okorocha and Akande were former head of state, General Muhammadu Buhari; Alhaji Kawu Baraje,who led the breakaway PDP faction, former Borno State governor, Senator Ali Modu-Sheriff; Senator Bukola Saraki; Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State, former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu; and a former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode. Governors Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun), Abdulfatah Ahmed (Kwara), Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers), Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano), Babatunde Fashola (Lagos) and Senator Abiola Ajimobi (Oyo) were also at the meeting. The APC was said to be planning similar visits to a former defence minister, General Theophilus Danjuma, Chief Alex Ekwueme, a former vice President of Nigeria and Alhaji Shehu Shagari, former president of the country. The APC had also visited, former heads of state, Generals Ibrahim Babangida, Abdulsalami Abubakar and former vice president, Atiku Abubakar. http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/12/22/apc-recruits-obasanjo-as-navigator/ |

Politics / Nigeria; Buhari And Corruption: 3 Fingers Pointing Back by XueRengui: 12:23pm On Dec 26, 2014 |
When he brags about his much vaunted prowess in “jailing corrupt public officials,” Buhari only exposes his lack of full understanding of what corruption is. Corruption is not all just about embezzled money.Corruption is also about power, and even more so, one can argue. By that yardstick, Buhari is the most corrupt himself: heusurped and misused power in Nigeria to perform dreadful and even criminal actions. A symptom of power-corruption is using illegally obtained power with utter disregard for constituted law and order and elected government. When Buhari carried out a military coup to sack an elected government, he indicted himself as power-corrupt. In bragging about it, he makes the second point about power-corruption—arrogance.Years after essentially despoiling and destroying an elected government, Buhari insists to the hapless peoples residing in Nigeria that he will continue to try to seek the office of the president of Nigeria, no matter how many times he has to try! The "subtexted" message is that if military coups were still possible in Nigeria, he would have used that avenue once again to achieve his goal. Military decrees are not laws: they are in fact military orders that must be carried out by civilian-citizenry, on penalty of death. Buhari set about issuing decrees and ensuring their enforcement In Nigeria between 1983 and 1985. During that period, due process, proper legal representation and process, presumption of innocence until formal trial and conviction, were trashed and would never be practiced as Buhari wielded the power of life and death over each single person and all living in Nigeria then. The most unimaginable occurrence is when Buhari issued hisMilitary decrees and then made themretroactive. Based on such cruel and unconscionable act and display of abuse of power, Buhari ordered the execution of persons who had earlier been convicted of drug offences well before his “regime terrible” locked down Nigeria.*The death of such prisoners as such is in fact an act of murder by apsychopath, Buhari. Corruption with power does not get much worse than that. Buhari registered Nigeria as an Islamic nation with the OIC—the Organization of Islamic Conference, reserved for Muslim countries. There was no discussion with the rest of non-Muslim Nigeria who constitute over half of the population and who would have bluntly said “No” to that. But, Buhari “had the power” and exercised it, without qualms. How else would one define “power-drunk” and corruption with power? Buhari had a chance to show remorseor at least render some accounting and accountability for his inimical activities as a Military ruler of Nigeria at theOputa Commission, an event reminiscent of the much successful Truth and Reconciliation commission post-Apartheid South Africa. But insheer arrogance and contempt, Buhari refused to show up. Not quite satisfied, he went to court after intimidating the judge(s) and won aninjunction successfully prohibiting the government of Nigeria from ever making the Oputa findings public. A society is always threatened by corruption in any form, butpower-corruption is invariably more frightening, devastating and lethal than money-corruption. Yet, there is even more danger when a society fails to recognize that power-usurpation and abuse is a form of corruption—and deadly at that. This failure results in the unthinkable: that given their records,persons like Buhari would actually show their faces to contest for public office, and that society would tolerate that.

Mr Buhari is yet to make a public statement on the rioting, but his spokesman Yinka Odumakin said that they could not “accept these results as announced until cross-checks have been carried out by the electoral commission”. The electoral commission is expected to announce the final results later today. http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/04/18/us-nigeria-elections-idUSTRE73E8DO20110418 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/nigeria/8459321/Many-killed-in-Nigeria-unrest-over-Goodluck-Jonathans-poll-win.html if Buhari had called his almajiri foot soldiers to order immediately, the chaos that ensued after the results were announced would have been averted! |
