Default Re: Yar Adua Cannot Lead Nigeria Anywhere



Frank,

You are at your best here today and smoking.This is a masterpiece presentation of facts that cannot be denied.
The bitter truth is what you've spoken,that Yaradua is a "no show". And who will deny it?
It is a shame that for nearly 50yrs, Nigeria is still not able to elect a dynamic leader who can truely lead this nation out of blackman's pathetic jungle unto modern day economic prosperities and self realisations.
Based upon the truths that you unearthed about the tragedy of having the type of Yaradua as President,can you now see it yourself the blackman's tragedy that Osuji was directing our attentions to the other time? Is it not the same kind of blackman's tragedy that you just highlighted? Yes,it is!
Emma,sincerely speaking,are you aware of any democratic society in the West that would put the type of Yarardua in office as President?Only in a blackman's country can such happen and our Nigeria is a typical example.
Check these out.
In 1960 at Independence,Sir Tafa Balewa got into office as Prime Minister, but Tafa knew not how to nurse up the newly emerged nation and how to lay solid foundations for future economic bouyancy.
Instead for Balewa to seek for helping hands from those who are skilled in the job,he concentrated his attention and the nation's resources into fighting his chief opposition leader,Obafemi Awolowo. He framed up the sage and locked him away.He then turned to Zik and neutralized him.
Balewa's six years in office was only a sorry merry-go-round and a very bad begining for a newly independent nation.
Then,came our most humble Aliyu Shagari who in the first place did not want to be President.The most he planned to be was a Senator but he found himself in Presidential office anyway.
In Western democratic countries,are you aware of any of them that will knowingly put in office as President, someone who is visibly unwilling to be President? We saw it in blackman's country of Nigeria.
What did Mallam Aliyu Shagari do or what did we expect him to do? Poor job indeed!
The ferocious lions that packed his NPN{National Party of Nigeria} were preying on the nations economic resources and actually started the era of massive treasury lootings.
What did Shagari the unwilling President do?He looked the other way throughout as the wrecking of the country he supposed to be govering continued until cowboy Buhari rode into town and led him out of the office.
Then came His Majesty and former military dictator, Olusegun Obasanjo another an unwilling individual who was fresh out of jail.
His paymasters,sponsors,friends and political partners were old timers.They included professional thieves and scientific treasury looters,evil perpetrators, expert election riggers and extravagant opportunists.The rest is history.
Today another tragedy struck this unfortunate blackman's nation which is what your work is centered around - the unholy imposition of Yaradua on a nation that is groaning in economic pains.
The President that was imposed upon us according to you is the one that has no plan for the nation he was "elected" to govern. The imposed President does not know what to do in the first place hence he has not embarked on anything after one year in office.
You are right,Emma,he cannot lead the nation. He knows not where to go and if he ever does he is lacking in strenght to move on.
A well presented episode of blackman's tragedy.
