Femi Adesina Made Buhari’s Hypocrisy Worse

 By Dele Sobowale

"Silence is golden when you can’t think of an [intelligent] answer” – Mohammed Ali, 1942-2016.  

Buhari’s death has exposed more horrors about the real attitude of those who held the highest posts in his government – which was largely a failure based on lies and hypocrisy.

*Buhari and Femi Adesina 

Last week, my column addressed Garba Shehu’s confession that he told Nigerians lies about Aso Rock rats to cover up Buhari’s infirmities which might have rendered him unable to preside. 

Today, it is  Femi Adesina, another top official of the government, who is under scrutiny for what he said in defence of his late boss.

To be quite candid, if only the dead can be aware of what their “friends” say about them, they would seek the forgiveness of their enemies.

Adesina just rubbished Buhari’s reputation for simplicity and honesty by his recent utterances on a television show.

Buhari And The Enduring Hate Narrative

By Ugochukwu Ejinkeonye

In the buildup to the 2015 elections, the wild, uproarious promotion of General Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the man with the panacea for   Nigeria’s myriad of problems wasted no time in saturating the air.

*President Buhari 

This was sloppily packaged with a strange, aggressive refusal to give the slightest consideration for any voice of caution, any alternative opinion no matter how sound and redemptive. You either joined the rowdy herd or you are a “hater” of the “messiah.”
