HATE SPEECHES BY THE APC General Muhammadu Buhari said: “God willing, by 2015, something will happen. They either conduct a free and fair election or they go in a very disgraceful way. If what happened in 2011 should happen again in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and the baboon would all be soaked in blood” Astonishingly, this brimstone was spewed by a former Military Head of State who has democratic blood flowing in his veins. Prior to the 2011 elections, another northern leader that enjoys the wherewithal of prominence, Tanko Yakassai, warned Nigerians that the country would breakup if Dr. Goodluck Jonathan was returned. Yakassai was neither arrested nor investigated. The legislatively active House of Representatives did not consider Yakassais provocative utterances a threat to national security, stability and peace. In October 2010, Alhaji Lawal Kaita said on behalf of the Northern Elders Political Forum. He said: “We’ll make Nigeria ungovernable for Jonathan. Anything short of a Northern President is tantamount to stealing our Presidency. Jonathan has to go and he will go. Even if he uses incumbency powers to get his nomination on the platform of PDP, he will be frustrated out of office” Yes, Kaita was right because now he has rallied the North to reinforce the offal that is Boko Haram to distract President Jonathan and to frustrate and destabilize the nation. By implication elders like Kaita represent a bad example to the youths and a monumental waste to his generation because the real essence of living is preservation of self and future generations. Another Northern Leader Dr. Junaid Mohammed said in an interview in THE NATION of March 17th, 2013 “that unless efforts are made to ensure that 2015 general elections are free and fair, it may turn out to be the last election in the history of the nation”
