It is not news that it has been difficult for me to believe that anything good could come out of Buhari\u2019s Nazareth. My convictions are based on his trajectory on the political landscape of Nigeria. A trajectory of corruption, incompetence, deceit, nepotism and a genre of noxious tribalism are the contaminating clouds characterizing his contoured career.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10406\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10407\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10408\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10409\">But for someone like me, who is an avowed unbeliever in Buhari, it is nothing personal. It is all about the future of my children who despite having several opportunities for being Americans have fallen in love first of all with Ijeshaland, the Yoruba Nation, the unfortunate country called Nigeria and the continent Africa. That is the order of priority in which I have tried to educate them and they understand, or rather I did everything to make them understand, why it has to be that way.<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10410\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10411\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10412\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10413\">So, because this is about the future of my children, I have prayed ceaselessly and hoped untiringly that President Buhari would disappoint me in his second coming. This is despite the fact that I did not think he would be able to rescue Nigeria. This is despite the fact that I know his second coming is a tragic mistake. This is despite the fact that I know that Buhari is a born \u2013again corrupt military man turned politician dressed in the borrowed robe of integrity. This is despite the fact that I know that he does not believe in Nigeria.<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10414\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10415\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10416\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10417\">But somehow, you just hope that you are wrong. You hope that the man could have been softened by age and experience. You just hope that at his age he would realize the futility of vanity and would seek to ingrain his name in immortality by doing the right thing and disappoint doubting Thomases like me. You hope that some of your friends and colleagues who bought into him hook, line and sinker would come around to wipe it in your face \u201cwe told you so.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10418\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10419\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10420\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10421\">It would have been beautiful and worth it if I found myself in that position. It would not have mattered if President Buhari had disappointed me and performed very well. I would have appreciated it. I would have praised him. I would have been converted to one of his hailers. I would have been shameless about making a u-turn. All would have been worth it for the sake of the future of my children.<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10422\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10423\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10424\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10425\">But rather than disappoint me, President Buhari further confirmed why I have been against him in the first instance. He cemented his reputation that made Nigerian electorate reject him three times as a congenital failure and incorrigibly untruthful. He continues to prove that he is not worthy of even the fake integrity with which he has been invested by the Asiwaju Bola Tinubu\u2019s propaganda machine that ensured his election as Nigeria\u2019s president.<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10426\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10427\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10428\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10429\">Nigerians are wondering why Buhari has refused to act on the evidence based corruption charges against his Chief of Army Staff, General Tukur Yusuf Buratai. And with Sahara Reporters Expo on the current Interior Minister, Abdulrahman Dambazau, Nigerians are perplexed that President Buhari is still silent and not saying anything. But what do Nigerians expect from someone who told the world that General Sanni Abacha stole no money belonging to the country in spite of the overwhelming evidence to the contrary?<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10430\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10431\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10432\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10433\">What makes Nigerians believe that if evidence did not matter in General Abacha\u2019s case, why should it matter in General Buratai\u2019s case? Why should evidence matter in General Dambazau\u2019s case? Did Nigerians forget so soon how Buhari allowed retired Vice Admiral Murtala Nyako who stole the commonwealth of Adamawa State dry not to be detained? Are they surprised that the case has since receded into the background?<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10434\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10435\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10436\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10437\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10438\">\u00a0<\/span>But for someone under whose nose $2,8 billion disappeared when he was Petroleum Minister in 1978, this ought not to be too strange. For someone who fails to account for the 100 Billion naira Petroleum Trust Fund that he presided over under the same Abacha, this should not be strange. For someone who led Nigerians in a lie that he did not have a house in Abuja when the contrary is true, why should this be news?<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10439\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10440\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10441\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1469239233607_10442\">Did Buhari do anything on the Central Bank of Nigeria\u2019s fraudulent employment practices that unfairly benefited his family members? Did he not keep silent with the hope that Nigerians would soon forget the monumental corruption? Did Buhari say anything about the murderous Fulani herdsmen rampaging across the south of the country? How could Nigerians forget so soon the trajectory of Buhari as someone inflicted by a dangerous version of tribalism?
