THE BUHARI IMBROGLIO!!!

President Muhamadu Buhari, a man that was respected and feared when he came on-board 29th may, 2015 as Nigeria’s president with a slogan “I am for everybody, but I am for nobody”. His efforts to fight corruption which is his only agenda for change was lauded by all until what seems to be like a shift or curvature in his graph of performance was observed by the teeming populace.

Just like in adsorption chemistry, one of the limitations of the Freundlich adsorption isotherm equation is that the graph failed to attain a straight line when plotted at high pressure, it only works at a very low pressure. Now my question is; does Baba’s rate of good governance works best at low pressure and fails when the leaders of his party, the APC increase pressure?

Few months ago, the US government refused to sell arms to his led government of Nigeria and I believe it is time the president and his APC leaders apologized to Jonathan for all the lies they told against him. Even GEJ was able to procure some arms through the black market to maul the Boko haram men, but our so called stern general has been unable to do this and the Haramists are having a field day with human barbecue. This quota system general self!!! For four months, “Baba go slow” acquired his nick name due to the promise to come up with angels and saints as ministers to help him man his government(good move); Nigerians waited patiently with no clue of who these saints would be or rather whose names would appear in the president’s self acclaimed “book of life”.

Surprisingly, one of his trusted angels spied on the proposed list of saints to see the same old and near obsolete fairy tale like names and corruption labeled faces that have featured in one way or the other in the past administration which he (Baba) termed as kwurrupt. What then are we talking about! Has the term corruption now a brand name just for a microscopic few?

Few years ago, 1999 to be precise, during the tenure of president Olusegun Obasanjo, chief Audu Ogbeh, one of Baba’s saints and ministerial nominee was party’s (PDP) national chairman. President Obasanjo openly and publicly confronted Audu Ogbeh by calling him a chronic liar and a thief which later led to his resignation or was forced to resign by Obasanjo as national chairman of the party. It also noted that Chief Audu Ogbeh never contested any of all the allegations leveled against him by president Obasanjo.
The former governor of rivers state, Saint Rotimi Amaechi, another ministerial nominee who was formerly reported to have been disqualified by the Department of States Security, DSS who is now currently under probe by the Rivers State government over an alleged 100 Billion naira scam and also 42 Billion naira Horsfal Hospital erection scam, also featured in the list despite all the allegations leveled against him, and so many others in the list.

There are speculations that Baba allowed these names to push through despite their adjudication by the commission of enquiry and the disqualification by the DSS and other security agencies just because he wants a relief from their hook in his neck. I think the saying “the thief and the buyers of the stolen goods are liable of same offence” should be considered in this case. President Buhari in an attempt to wash his hands off Rotimi Amaechi’s corruption stained body, like the Biblical Pontius Pilate, by allowing his name to still feature in his book of life has unknowingly entangled himself in the wrath of Rivers State and perhaps Nigerians, and therefore be regarded as corrupt and also aiding and abetting corruption.

Since the release of the ministerial list, anyone who still believes that we are in the era of change can believe anything. Believing APC’s change is like believing the Pope is the sponsor of Al-Qaida. All these actions of Baba negate his sing-song or orchestration of “clean Nigeria of corruption”. Now that Buhari’s body language is no longer generating electricity, what is next? Has Baba run out of Capacitance or what? Maybe he needs to be re-sworn in so that his body language begins to generate some megawatts of electricity once again.
APC! Change to Fear!!!
