Buhari/Osinbajo: Change in the Offing

“when America was in big trouble, she turned to General Dwight Eisenhower; Britain turned to Sir Winston Churchill and France to General Charles de Gaulle, in their most difficult times…Buhari is: “the person Nigeria needs, and must turn to at this critical time of her travails in order to liberate her from her current state of stupor, corruption, insecurity, impunity and general hopelessness, as the above leaders did for their countries.”

Poll shift: 'I was disgusted' -Osinbajo

On poll shift, the APC presidential running mate said: "my personal reaction was one of disgust. I was disgusted that government chose to be so devious." He wondered how the armed forces can contain B‎oko Haram if it couldn't provide security for just two days scheduled for the poll.
He explained that "all former Heads of States agreed: if the insurgency is happening in 14 LGAs, surely the elections can go on?" "It's ironic that in many countries where insurgencies happen, & elections go on, Nigerian troops keep the peace there," he said.
He added that despite the insurgency, "PVC collection in Adamawa aand Yobe, where there is insurgency, is over 70%." ‎"We're becoming accustomed to the impunity of this government. And I think it's so sad that they would go against the wishes of the people," Osinbajo lamented.

Lawyers endorse Buhari/Osinbajo

The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Ikorodu branch has endorsed the All Progressive Congress (APC) presidential candidate Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and his running mate Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN).
In a statement by its chairman Mr. Dotun Adetunji and Secretary Blessing Ene the lawyers’ body said by virtue of their training and professional calling, lawyers are better equipped to advance the course of societies.
They urged lawyers support Prof. Osinbajo who is a senior and leading member of the Bar.
The statement reads: “In the words of the first Nigerian lawyer, Christopher Alexander Sapara-Williams (called to the English Bar in 1879 and the Nigerian Bar in 1898), ‘The legal practitioner lives for the direction of his country’.
“Similarly, Article 14 of the Basic Principles on the Role of Lawyers adopted in Havana in 1990 loudly and unmistakably proclaims that ‘… Lawyers, in protecting the rights of their clients and in promoting the cause of justice, shall seek to uphold human rights and fundamental freedoms recognised by national and international law and shall at all times act freely and diligently in accordance with the law and recognised standards and ethics of the legal profession.
’”It is against this background that the NBA Ikorodu Branch deemed it pertinent to unanimously endorse, and has unanimously endorsed, the candidature of General Muhammadu Buhari and professor Yemi Oluleke Osinbajo (SAN) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming presidential elections fixed for February 14, 2015.
“The NBA Ikorodu Branch in taking this monumental, historic and unanimous decision took cognisance of the elephantine deterioration, unprecedented decay, immeasurable irresponsibility, unjustifiable insensitivities, illegal actions and inactions coupled with limitless unconstitutional activities of the incumbent administration which have attained frightening dimensions and require urgent national massive electoral rejection and replacement with committed patriots and selfless nationalists such as the duo of General Muhammadu Buhari and Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN) with known unassailable track records of achievements, transparency, honesty, integrity, vision, selflessness, human capital development, institutions building and multiple-legacies development capacity.
“The NBA Ikorodu Branch recall, with nostalgia and gratitude, that Prof. Osinbajo between 1999 and 2007 when he served as Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice under the able and amiable leadership of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, almost single-handedly transformed the judicial landscape, not only in Lagos State, but in the Federation at large, commencing from bold outstanding conditions of service to all judges through reform of procedural rules (both civil and criminal), sustainable access to justice initiatives to qualitative, substantive and physical reconstruction of the justice sector.
“Lagos State kick-started this uncommon pro-people and development-based phenomenon, the Federal Government and the other 35 States including the FCT had no option than to follow.
“As a Legal Practitioner, well-schooled in the sociological perspective and believing that law is an instrument for positive social engineering, Prof. Osinbajo did not only permanently and positively effected changes in both the substantive and procedural laws, he had equally engendered enormous personnel re-orientation and positive attitudinal transformation in a very deep and wide systemic way…”‘which other committed Chief Law Officers, both within and outside Nigeria, are still emulating.
“As a visionary, progressive intellectual and world-class scholar, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN)’s universal reputation for personal integrity and national (if not global) acclaim for having re-shaped the country’s judicial sanctity and integrity clearly qualifies and presents him as the most appropriate Nigerian to join and work with General Buhari to rescue Nigeria and Nigerians from the ceaseless abyss of poverty, incompetence, inefficiency, insecurity, ineptand myopic leadership and otiose mismanagement that are currently plaguing the country.
“The NBA Ikorodu Branch reminds Nigeria and Nigerians that “though the beginning may be small, the latter end shall be great and prosperous” for us all with the duo of General Muhammadu Buhari and Professor Yemi Osinbajo (S.A.N) piloting the affairs of this country from May 29, 2015. The NBA Ikorodu Branch therefore urges all Nigerians to always plan ahead as “it was not raining when Noah built the ark”. Nigerians must obtain their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) and vote massively to ensure the desired change we all crave for and ensure a Greater Nigeria where insurgency, sundry government insincerity, un-employment, maladministration, lawlessness, injustice, obstinate disregard of rule of law and the due process is truly a thing of the past and where justice and peace shall truly reign supreme.”

The Economist endorses Buhari

Influential United Kingdom-based magazine, The Economist, says the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), is more competent than President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party.The highly respected magazine in its editorial published in its current edition and titled, ‘Former dictator is a better choice than a failed president,’ said Nigeria was unfortunate to have both Buhari and Jonathan vying for the Presidency. It, however, said that out of the two, Buhari was a better candidate.This, the magazine argued, was because Jonathan was a huge failure and his party had mismanaged the economy of the country since it took over in 1999.

Call for Change

Another N5tn missing from the federation account! Are we going to continue with this greedy government? Should we be watching till we start dropping dead on the road for lack of strength as a result of hunger and starvation before we know that we should vote out this government? Nigerians call obey. A call for change is a task that must be done and must be obeyed. O God of creation, grant this our noble quest: that good leaders may be voted in and a corrupt government may be swept away.

Meeting Professor Yemi Osinbajo By Gimba Kakanda

I had to give praise to the Lord for not being tortured by a “stealing is not corruption” logic. His responses, even with the limited time, were honest and perceptive. He did not promise miracles, just the will and passion to serve as one of a clique of politicians determined and passionate about the welfare of the Nigerian. Of his principal, General Buhari, he expressed absolute confidence in his ability to reform the system and to revive our institutional and cultural discipline...

Think about it

It is not youthfulness or the number of academic certificates that can give good governance. No amount of coercion can force any voter to go one way or another. Nigerians will even vote for someone from Aro Hospital as long as people hope he will deliver good governance with minimum corruption that is destroying our country. What Nigeria needs now more than ever before are accountable leaders who put the interest of the people above selfish interests.

Buhari's Certificate saga

Once again, I want to break my silence on the issue of certificate or no certificate of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(rtd.) A big question that is begging for a sincere answer is, why do we major in the minor in this country. Why do we leave issues and discuss non-issues? Lives are wasted everyday courtesy of Boko Haram's relentless bloodletting in the North-East yet the initiator of stomach infrastructure has nothing to say. We Nigerians are no more fools. We had been fooled in the past by the story of no shoes while schooling. I am not a politician but a concerned citizen of Nigeria.

That masterpiece by Abimbola Adelakun, Re: Buhari, what's death got to do with it, has echoed the minds of Nigerians that cut across age and education. One musician had sung "Na my choice." Whether Muhammadu Buhari is old, a soldier, semi-literate, a loser and whatever, he is the choice of the illiterate, the old, the unemployed literates who are young, the pensioners, the ill-equipped soldiers, those who are dying because of striking health workers, and the prisoners because courts are shut. In fact, Buhari is the choice of all the people because it is time for change.

60 Reasons Not To Vote Jonathan - Soyinka

Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, declared today, February 5, 2015, that no one should vote for President Goodluck Jonathan and his administration in the February 14 general election, saying that there has been a total failure under the President’s leadership.
Addressing students, Wole Soyinka said he has 60 reasons not to vote for the Jonathan regime.“I will not vote and I will not encourage anyone to vote for the continuation of this government, simply because your colleagues numbering over two hundred were kidnapped”, Soyinka told students at the 2015 edition of Vision of the Child (VOTC), a yearly programme inaugurated in 2012...“And the government of this nation failed to show leadership. So anyone who says after that event that I will vote or cast my vote or encourage anyone to vote for this regime must be living in Sambisa forest,” Soyinka said, referring to a forest in Borno State where the Chibok girls are believed to be held by Boko Haram.“There has been a failure of leadership. Our children whom you represent today have been betrayed ,” Soyinka said, adding that no appropriate action was taken to rescue them.
Soyinka said it took the Jonathan government ten days to even accept that the Chibok girls were missing.“After that dereliction of duty, after that failure of leadership, after that betrayal for our future, for anyone to think or to put words in my mouth suggesting that I will vote or encourage anyone to vote for this regime is a travesty of intelligence,” Soyinka said.

The Osinbajo I Know

Since the emergence of Yemi Osinbajo as the vice presidential candidate of the All Peoples Congress (APC) there has been a lot of speculation about him in the media, social media and chat rooms. Nigerians have been so jaded with politicians that when they come across someone who genuinely cares they remain skeptical.
Yemi Osinbajo was brought up in a strict Christian home where moral values were emphasised with no fear or favour. Stealing was corruption and you never got away with it. As an effect of this upbringing, Yemi excelled as a student. He won contests in debating while in secondary school one of which was the African Statesman Intercollegiate Best Speaker’s Prize. At the University of Lagos where he graduated with a second-class upper degree in law, he tutored 3rd year students in Evidence. This he began while still in his second year. Evidence then was open to both second and third year students.
Osinbajo has a brilliant mind and has used it to further the rule of law beyond the shores of Nigeria. When Justice Bola Ajibola was head of the law school at UNILAG, Yemi was a lecturer in the faculty. He always voiced his opinion on issues even when
it went against the grain; this he did to the consternation of members of the faculty. But to the surprise of many, when Prince Ajibola was appointed as member of the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, he sent for Yemi
Osinbajo, the lawyer who went the extra mile and made valuable contributions to the law department. Obviously Justice Ajibola did not want a yes man.
When Senator Bola Tinubu became governor of Lagos state, based on reference, he asked Yemi to be his attorney general. Yemi demurred on the grounds of being from Remo. But, Tinubu insisted saying that would not be an issue considering
that Yemi had been a resident in Lagos for over 10 years. This is not a stand alone case as Tinubu also appointed Mr. Ben Akabueze to serve as commissioner.
Many seem to have forgotten that before this role, Yemi was a special adviser to the Nigeria’s attorney general between 1988 and 1992 and went on to become the ethics adviser to the board of the African Development Bank.
The rest as they say is history. Yemi reformed the judiciary. At the time he was appointed, most Lagos courts did not have functioning fax machines, stenographic equipment or
even computers. Paint was peeling off the walls of the esteemed judiciary.
There were no air conditioning, suits could be filed with a paltry 500 Naira and judges earned 67,000 Naira annually! It was pathetic. That was the sorry state of the judiciary in Lagos. The judiciary was reformed and renovated under
Yemi’s leadership. As part of the reform, lawyers now intending to be judges go through examinations. Little wonder he served two scandal-free terms. This should have been a major story in the news but Yemi is not one to score cheap goals by motivating such stories, with a role where service was required.
The Justice Research Institute (JRI) of which Maryam Uwais, the principal partner of Wali-Uwais & Co and consultant to UNICEF, OSIWA, World Bank and DFID and Femi Falana the former president of the West Africa Bar Association and civil rights activist, are board members was co-founded by Yemi in 2005.
The JRI, which boasts of a library and retreat facilities is a justice policy and research centre located in Lagos. It is affiliated to the Faculty of Law,
University of Lagos, Akoka. He established it as a private-public sector think-tank and educational resource for the operators of the justice system. It has become the most reliable source of data and critical information on the justice sector in Nigeria.
In his assignment as a pastor at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Yemi has used the gospel to help the poor and the downtrodden. Much is said about his parish at Banana Island (Olive Tree) but most people may wish to know that he was Pastor of RCCG Jesus House at Ademola street in Ikoyi for years before he was posted to Olive
Tree. At Jesus Centre, the church birthed six NGOs one of which was used to effect kidney transplant for the underprivileged. A lot of these transplants were done locally at St. Nicholas in Lagos not India.
We need people at the helm of affairs who understand the plight of the common man. Yemi, who visits area boys under the bridge, has a mission to Makoko and has sponsored the education of many less privileged children, knows that first
hand.
Just like a battered woman is wary of every well-meaning suitor, Nigerians have become so inured to compromising politicians. As such, it is difficult for them to conceive that there could be a genuine one out there.

'Buhari not too old to Rule' - Dele Momodu

Respected journalist and publisher of Ovation Magazine, Dele Momodu has declared that presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen Muhammadu Buhari is not too old to rule Nigeria.
Momodu, a former presidential candidate on the platform of the Labour Party in 2011 said those who insist Buhari cannot rule Nigeria at 70 should go and kiss the dust.
The polemicist in series of tweets explained why age should not be a barrier against the Peoples General.
He tweets below:
“Those making noise about BUHARI’s age;
America’s most populous State, California has just sworn in a 76-year old Governor, for a 4th term!
“Buhari is old, he’s a religious fanatic, he is this, he is that, but he’s the one we want, warts & all; so be it… Shikena! “There is no age barrier in digital revolution… The People’s General, Mohammadu Buhari is catching up fast like a true soldier… “For every reason they give in hating & maligning Buhari, we shall respond with intelligence & facts & refuse to join them in abuses! "

Crying More Than the Bereaved

Excerpts:
Momodu and Osuntokun need telling that the “victims” of Buhari’s “tyranny” had moved on, as some of them, with benefit of hindsight and current realities in Nigeria, have even come out to declare Buhari the right man for the job at this stage of our national life.
The jailing of Tunde Thompson, a journalist, during Buhari’s military regime, is one of the points Momodu, Osuntokun and their co-travellers bandy around to remind us of the tyranny of Buhari. But here is what Tunde Thompson himself has to say on Buhari candidature in 2015:
“I believe that a person like Buhari at this time can call anybody to order and some people are afraid of that…Professor Yinka Akintoye, one of the second republic senators jailed by Buhari in 1984, in an article written in December 2014, titled “Open Letter to General Buhari”, after acknowledging the errors made by the General during his brief regime – and everyone knows there were errors,
which regime is without one? – concluded by asserting that he knew he had the General has what it takes to save Nigeria at this point in time.
Lawal Ojuolape was one of the young men that were killed by the Buhari regime for drug trafficking. Lawal Ojuolape’s son ( @ ismaillawal on twitter) has come out to endorse Buhari candidacy…
And here are Momodu and Osuntokun crying louder than the bereaved.
Yes, there were errors during Buhari’s regime but it is
uncharitable to dismiss the patriotic gains of the era. One million Momodus and Osuntokuns cannot stop a change whose time has come.

A Tale of Two Campaigns

One is the campaign of the APC for change with Buhari as the beacon holder and hope bearer, and the other is a campaign on Buhari by the PDP, yes, Buhari is all they talk about whilst Buhari's CHANGE train surges ahead with issues predicated on the APC manifesto, and a strong passion for National Security and anti-corruption.
For the PDP it is Buhari's certificate, whereas INEC and the Military have proved naysayers wrong, INEC has denied
making it an issue, and the Army has silenced cynics, BUT PDP will continue to lie and seek to deceive.
For want of what to campaign with Buhari's health (they lied that he has prostrate cancer), age (they lied that he is 81
not 72), certificate (they lie and insult the Army and all Nigerians when they say that a Retired General of the Nigerian Armed Forces does not have a certificate), and childishly Mr President says the Buhari that he gave the 2nd
highest National Honours last year 'does not know his phone number'.
So for lack of what to debate with, so Buhari and his family have become the PDP Agenda and manifesto.
May God Save Nigeria.
