A person who always faces backwards will never make progress
people who choose to embrace relics of their primitive past
will sink deeper into the abyss of that past
they will become slaves
governed by those who believe in the suspension of democratic rights because they dont believe in human free will.
The world of Buhari.
Their children will challenge them that education is not important in leadership
after all, was someone not chosen to lead Nigeria even though he has no fundamental structured education?
The world of Buhari.
Your children will challenge you :
"What is the use of the kind of fundamental training that enables you learn, unlearn and relearn,
navigate global economy, engineering systems, demographic issues, maximise human power
talk less of any education beyond secondary school?
No need.
All you need is to tell people you want to bring change beceause any change is better than the present
and they will believe in you beceause they want magic".
The world of Buhari.
The world where you threaten that blood will flow
that the dog and the baboon will be soaked in blood
if you don't win an election
the world where your supporters threaten to kill anyone campaigning for your opponent
as is now the case in Northern Nigeria
as they massacred uncounted innocent people when you lost in 2011.
The world of Buhari.
The world of speaking with two voices on the Islamic terrorists ravaging the North
choosing to condemn them unequivocally only when election time is drawing close
before then demanding the government should not fight them even as the terrorists slaughtered thousands
all because the terrorists are Northern Nigerian Muslims like you
who escalated their evil
by presenting themselves as bombing only Christians
and fighting the government of a Christian President from Southern Nigeria whom you want to replace with yourself
the world created by Buhari.
The world in which you try to distort reality
even as Abacha's massive loot was being returned to Nigeria
by claiming that Sani Abacha did not steal public funds
after stealing the power to rule Nigeria
while you paint yourself as a fighter of corruption.
The world of Buhari.
The world of a military truncator of democratic government
a tyrant and dictator
enactor of draconian decrees
denier of citizen's rights to criticise the government that rules them
arbitrary and ethnically prejudiced jailer of people
while claiming to be fighting corruption
a man who clearly has no academic education
even at the secondary school level, since he has no evidence for that
a con-man who is working with the connivance of others
to send a message to Nigerians and their youth
that in today's rapidly developing global knowledge economy
you don't need any foundational education to lead the greatest African nation.
The world of Buhari.
