On this day in 2010, the country mourned. The intrepidly, cold and bold daring hands of Death snatch our beloved president away. Despite his fleeting stay in office, he was able to transform Nigeria even beyond expectation.

If he was still the president, or if he hadn't died, we would have seen a different Nigeria today. Nigeria would have been Better than it is today because Yar'Adua was leading the country on the right path to achieving Her prosperous Destiny. He was about to set the pace and Blaze the trail of the country. He was on the brink of finding a new path. But sadly, He died.

Why Do good die so early?
May His Soul continue to Rest in Peace.

What are your Memories of President Umar Musa Yar'Adua?

Yes we really missed him.

NTA wouldn't even let me rest all over T.V with the continuous talk of his 7 points agenda.

Not even 1 single one got fulfilled.

Before a Chicago drug dealer began his evil schemes to ruin the country, spits.

Yaradua a Northern man, but in my downsouth community, we felt the peace he brought down to us.........We were on same page with him tagging along until the Sad news of his untimely demise.

Till this day, we still feel the Heartbreak!

May your soul continue to RIP with Allah

Yesteryear blues...

Sadly and strangely, he's better than the all the presidents that came after him.

First he dint die early the man is old, secondly not sure he died a natural death I guess he's not playing their way, he never favour anyone of them both his party and oppositions...the only man that can help this country can't be friends to what we are having as leaders presently.....I will keep saying it get your PVC at hand hin get reason

Indeed, a potentially great and revolutionary leader nigeria never had!

Yar'adua had good intentions, but death wouldn't let him execute them. If he hadn't died, these horrible humans in power wouldn't have come close to it and Nigeria wouldn't have been in this deep mess. Rest on, champ!

Had it been that he is still alive apc can never smell aso rock

Worthy of emulation. Now we have a person of questionable character and personality seating in the helm of affairs

The love I had for this man got no bounds.

Man was a blessing to this country

I don't know why good people no too dey last sha

The man had his good and bad sides.

He was forced on Nigerians through a very shameful and rigged elections conducted by PDP with Obasanjo at the helm of affairs.

The 2007 Presidential Elections was so rigged that even Yar Adua himself itted to the rigging when he came into power.

One thing I won't forget easily was when he denied Blue Star Consortium the rights to buy and privatize the NNPC dead refineries through Dangote and Otedola. I still believe that would have been the magic that could have resurrected the dead refineries. Currently, almost 2 Billion Dollars have been looted trying to revamp the dead refineries.


I still like what he did with the Presidential Amnesty Program.

Oh what a blessed soul he was. The man was honest to the core. He has good intentions for Nigeria.

The only president that publicly said the election that brought him to power was a flawed one. The Turai cabal later rubbished all Ya'Addua stood for.

Rest on President Yaradua the man who ended militancy in Nigeria Delta with his amnesty programme. Nigerians will always miss you.

The only special thing is that he's a better criminal.

Who took over the affairs of the nation after the demise of this great man. What was he achieved during the course. Was he able to fulfill one out of the 7 point agenda laid off. Suddenly nah drug baron is ur problem. Dogmatically ignorant.

Hear and doer. Wasn’t perfect, but if we have any leader half of what he did, Nigeria would have been a better place.

One of the realist and best president Nigeria ever had

He's short tenure was the best in the history of Nigeria.
Nigeria is cursed to have bad leaders. Most of them with good intentions like
Dele Giwa
Murtala Mohammed
Funsho Williams
Harry Marshall
Bola Ige
were all assassinated because they chose progress.

The country was better off then than now

A blessed memory of a true leader.
May your gentle soul continue to rest in peace sir.
We love you sir, but God loves you most!

a A man with good heart not those evil ones serving poverty as break fast

The best president we ever had!

a A man with good heart not those evil ones serving poverty as break fast.
May the Almighty God continue to make you rest on. you are true leader not ......................................

Our last-born was birthed that day. Happy 15th birthday, my boy!


Also, on the 15th anniversary of his death, may the soul of Yar'adua continue to rest in peace

Many past leaders are responsible for Nigeria's woes. Don't blame only Tulumbu.

You should understand the context in which I said "Died early"

God bless the soul of Umaru Musa Yar'Aduwa , Nigerians called him go-slow president but he never mind,the economy was developing so rapidly, as he enter office,fuel price was reduced and stayed dat way prior to his demise.

He rejected naira devaluation policy from IMF

The ogbonge tiff there has jacked fuel to 1000 just to loot and extort his people
