TRUTH VS PROPAGANDA


 WHO REALLY IS GENERAL BUHARI?
Recent events have compelled us to put up
this writing so as to enlighten some gullible
Nigerian masses on the mischievous
campaign of calumny waged against General
Muhammadu Buhari by some enemies of
progress that he is a religious fanatic, this
piece we believe will put to rest the
fallacious and mischievous propaganda
circulated in the past and being re-echoed
now for political expediency, that the
People’s General represents the interest of a
certain group in the Nigerian Nation.
Since the entry of General Buhari into
politics in 2002, there has been this
baseless, histrionically made and vexatious
allegation by some elements that he is a
religious extremist. Unfortunately, those
who succumb to these illogical
vituperations, based their argument on a
particular make believe statement that was
credited to him, even though no one has
ever reproduced the said speech to
substantiate the mater , thereby makes it
not only out of place but a fiction of political
jobbers.
As a formidable group championing the
cause of good governance , justice and most
importantly , the unity of Nigeria, we have
resolved to use this medium and expose the
real person of the man in question, which
has been ironically misrepresented by these
political opponents, in their imagination
their by so doing, they will reduce his
awesome popularity and electoral value.
Furthermore, it is an established fact that
his regime while as Head of State undertook
a thorough fight against graft and in the
course of doing that, nobody was targeted
based on their chosen faith or any other
primordial tendencies. Those that were
found guilty of graft, abuse of office and
sundry offences were the ones that had to
face the wrath of the law. And this was done
without exception, regardless of status,
class, creed; which to a greater extent made
Nigeria the pride of Africa and Nigerians
were respected home and abroad.
It is also on record that, the era was
Nigeria’s most progressive and glorious
moment, second only to the regime of
General Murtala Mohammed, to which the
Buhari’s regime was off-shoot indeed.
The import of this piece is to draw the
attention of Nigerians to this very man who
has been falsely and deliberately maligned
is a true and patriotic Nigerian leader who
has no prejudice of any kind whatsoever.
Even in politics, he stands out as the most
decent man among the present political
leaders jockeying for power in Nigeria today.
We are proud to substantiate our position
by just a glance on the composition of his
domestic staff, inter alia:
1.) Staff Sergeant Isah Abdullahi-Driver. Isah
is an Akwei, from Shendam Local
Government Area of Plateau State and an
active member of the Roman Catholic
Church, he has been working very closely
with the General for a very long time and
their closeness is purely defined by the
former’s diligence and dedication to duty.
He has been the official and personal driver
of the General for a very long time.
2.) Mr. Don Friday Bethuel-Principal Private
Secretary. He is Jenjo by tribe and from
Karim Lamido Local Government Area of
Taraba State. An evangelist, band member
and Projector Operator at The Saviour
Chapel of NDA, Kaduna, he is holding one
of the most sensitive positions in the
General’s Office as a result of his
competence and sincerity. He is directly
responsible for the official and private
correspondence of the General.
3.) Mr. Martins Agbor-Office Cook. He is
Mbube by tribe from Ogoja Local
Government Area of Cross River State. An
active member of St. Andrews Catholic
Church, Kakuri, Kaduna State, and his
choice was purely based on his skills and
dedication to duty irrespective of religion.
He is directly responsible for the General’s
recreation during office hours.
4.) Mr. Sunday Nalle Awosemo - Home
Cook. He is Yungu by tribe from Song Local
Government Area of Adamawa State; an
active member of The Lutheran Church of
Christ in Nigeria, he has been working for
the General; for a very long time and his
dedication to duty and trustworthiness has
earned him the long standing relationship
with his boss. He is directly responsible for
the preparations of the General’s and family
meals.
From the foregoing, it can be seen that
most of the sensitive positions in General
Buhari’s office and house are held by other
tribes who are Christians and not his tribe
and religion.
Also, among other apprentices is Comrade
Richard Tersoo Mnenga, a Tiv by tribe from
Kwande Local Government Area of Benue
State. And as a member of the Roman
Catholic Church and a strong chorister, he
took his choir members to sing Christmas
carols for the General at his residence in
2009, a gesture he considered a very great
honour. Richard is one of the closest and
trusted apprentices of the General.
Professor Tam David West has vividly
captured the personality of the General in
his two books-“Who Really is General
Muhammadu Buhari” and “The Sixteen Sins
of General Buhari” ;also, Dr. Adamu Kyuka
Usman , another Christian Scholar too
elaborated more on most of the issues
raised here in his book” General
Muhammadu Buhari: The Spirit of A Man” .
Nonetheless, we believe this our little effort
through this medium will also serve as a
great deal in reaching out to many more of
three mass of our people.
