So many dumb comments in this thread about buhari, I am still yet to see a presidential aspirant as clean as buhari. Has anyone come out to say he has money in a foreign somewhere or that he stole billions? for 4 years ,obasanjo probed PTF trying to find something against buhari when he headed that agency but couldnt find anything against the man. And is it not this young generation that let us know billions n billions can be stolen.  Umaru Dikko, that man stole too much money and certainly deserved what he got. But Nigerians are not ready for buhari. He is just too clean for us.  So its business as usual, 

@3seirez
Sorry my friend am afraid you are the one with dumb ideas, Buhari and all other coup plotters have no business in politics. Buhari is a murderer (along most of so-called military leaders). He took power by the gun, brought in retrospective laws, killed young Ogendegbe by firing squad in Sapele because of a few grams of cocaine (I don't condone drug trafficking) but even the countries they the take the drugs don't kill drug traffickers.

Who gave the Buhari the right to try an kidnap anyone from a foreign country? no matter how bad he thinks that person is, follow the rule of law. Do you see UK kidnapping Ibori from Dubai?

Bankole, Ibori, Yerima, Odili are BAD civilian leaders but they are civilians,
one day we will get good civilian leaders.

in my previous posts I always compare India and Pakistan.
India has had years of political unrest, thousands die during elections, at least 2 Prime Ministers have been assassinated, they have had disastrous economic policies, even had famine BUT never military rule.
their neighbour Pakistan from civilian to military back to civilian and so forth - which country would you rather live in India or Pakistan?

Rawlings, Rawlings, Rawlings where is this murderer on the world stage today? can you compare him to Mandela? Ghana has improved not because a few people were killed but because the average Ghanaian is more diligent not because they fear firing squad.

Please nairalanders grow up, improve your nation by first improving your own backyard before we point fingers at leaders and call for tyrants to rule us like the people of the old testament.

@ truly, pple like u will never allow this nation move forward, u have right to air your opinion but do not force it down anyone's throat, or are u Buhari's faithful?

funny topic



IMHO of all those gunning for the office,


he is the only one that stand tall on allegations of corruption. maybe he does not have the neatest record on human rights, but i think time/democracy has softened him



disclaimer!!!! the keyword being IMHO

Truly, Kobikwelu and 3seirez you have all spoke from the position of those who are well informed about 9ja's political history. Amongst all the lot we currently have eyeing the presidency in 2011, Buhari stands very tall well and above the rest.
100 days of GEJ's presidency has proved how much of a spendthrift he can be given the ability to rule for 4 years. The only bane Buhari has is the insufficiency of funds to carry out the right campaign.

I want the presidential aspirants to campaign based on their manifestos. What are they bringing to the table. What exactly are we going to score them on.
1. Lets take a look at what they say they will do.
2. Lets analyze each of their intended projects.
3. What is their pedigree?
4. How reliable are they/Can they be trusted?
5. Can they command international respect from world leaders?
6. What exactly are their antecedents on various issues from
[list]
[li]Corruption[/li]
[li]Rule of law[/li]
[li]Reduction of Recurrent Expenditure[/li]
[li]Increment of Capital expenditure[/li]
[li]Improving the per capital income and not deceit of Nigerians with GDP[/li]
[li]Tackling Unemployment[/li]
[li]Security[/li]
[li]Law and Order[/li]
[li]Human Rights[/li]
[li]Improving Infrastructure[/li]
[/list]
to many more issues. Lets get them to tell us what they intend to offer. Lets decrease our emotions but rather increase our intellect with an equal measure of rationality.
