'House husband' Yar'Adua, daughter and 'commander-in-wife' Turai
Deception of the decade
The grand deception is to keep sending officials and emissaries to Saudi Arabia until the Nigerian President Umaru ‘Ransom’ Yar’Adua’s tenure is up in 2011. The notion is that those in power are smart and can continue to hoodwink the masses.
The senate was sensible enough not to embark on the wild goose chase for a missing president that was declared dead on the internet by the American Chronicle. Yar’Adua allegedly died at 3.30pm on December 10, 2009. A man claiming to be Yar’Adua spoke with the BBC Hausa Service after NEXT revealed that he was brain-damaged. Although the American Chronicle article is no longer accessible for undisclosed reasons, the online publication now says that Yar’Adua suffered a stroke, cannot talk and is 'severely brain damaged' but:
Meanwhile, it has been confirmed that the phone call in which the President supposedly called the BBC to confirm that he will return to the country when his heath got better was a prank call. According to an anonymous source in the Information technology department of the Presidency office, the first lady and close friends of the presidency used voice-morphing software in which one of the president´s childhood friends spoke to the BBC in the guise of the president.
Dubbed the Imelda Marcos of Nigeria, the greedy First Lady, Turai Yar’Adua wants to hold on to power by refusing to allow government officials to see her husband in Saudi Arabia. The House of Representatives crew that went to see Yar’Adua were not allowed to see him. Yet, the House 'killed' the amendment of section 144 of the 1999 constitution after a rowdy session. There were speculations of bribery and corruption in favour of Yar’Adua. Even Yar'Adua's party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Chairman, Prince Vincent Ogbulafor could not see him in Saudi Arabia.
How many more trips?
Six members of the Executive Council of the Federation which includes the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ojo Maduekwe and the Minister of Health, Professor Babatunde Osotimehin are travelling to Saudi Arabia tomorrow to see Yar’Adua. Why were women not in the selection? Instead of the national legislature to impeach Yar’Adua, it made Goodluck Jonathan, the Acting President.
The charade to keep a comatose president in power should come to an end. Nigeria is currently the most laughable country in the world, where a nefarious cabal of nonentities are behaving like one eyed kings and queens a la Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s song, Big Blind Country (BBC).
Updated: Nigeria’s unfit President Yar’Adua is reportedly back in Nigeria (24 February 2009), but still unable to perform his duties. According to NEXT, “ 1326 – A security detail is guarding the president’s chair to ensure Acting President, Goodluck Jonathan does not sit on the chair”. Should the seat remain vacant until the president is fit to sit on it when there is an acting president? Later, '1404 – Statement by Presidency spokesman, "VP to run state affairs as President recovers." When will he recover? It does not make sense because there is room for First Lady Turai to 'act' as President behind closed doors.
Sam Amadi on Focus Nigeria
*Amadi
The current presenter of Focus Nigeria Kunle Adewale may not know that some Nigerians in the Diaspora disliked the way he embarrassed Dr Sam Amadi of the Ken Nnamani Centre for Leadership and Development. Adewale more or less forced Amadi to retract his statement on Charlatans that came into power because he mentioned former President Olusegun Obasanjo aka the Oracle of Ota.
There seemed to be no freedom of speech on the live programme and Adewale behaved like Obasanjo’s Media Security Officer. We have never seen Adewale’s brand of broadcast journalism before because the interviewer also played the role of a dictator and the interviewee became a ‘lame duck’. Nonsense!
It will be recalled that as soon as Adewale took over the programme from the original presenter Gbenga Aruleba, he became hostile to callers that asked for his predecessor. It took him some weeks before he became friendly to callers on the Aruleba issue.
Aruleba was removed from the programme because the missing President Umaru ‘Ransom’ Yar’Adua complained about the programme and blackmailed the chairman of the station, Chief Raymond Dokpesi. Yar’Adua felt that the political satellite programme on Sky Channel 187 was against his administration.

Court restrains govt from revoking DAAR’s licence
AIT owner, Raymond Dokpesi, yanks popular presenter of "Focus Nigeria" off air to appease the Yar’Adua regime
Updated: On 24 February 2009, Gbenga Aruleba resumed as the presenter of the political satellite TV programme, Focus Nigeria (Sky Channel 187).
And I had no doubt in my mind for a second, that BBC bullox is a piece of schoolkid gimmick-ery. Just goes to show the complicity of the British establishment in the sustenance of the big blind country…Everydog has its day…
^Nigeria is the most laughable country in the world————–So true. Even we laugh to keep sane at our predicament.But one thing I know to be so certain: This too shall end.
According to the American Chronicle, there is ‘voice-morphing software’ aka voice changer in the presidency. Should we expect another Big Blind Country (BBC) broadcast from Saudi Arabia? 😀 http://www.screamingbee.com/product/MorphVOXJunior.aspx

Mullah writes:Let Yar’Adua address the nation if he can. Why was he driven to Katsina instead of Aso Rock? Problems will arise in the presidency within a few days. @Dapxin, you are right because the week ahead will be very interesting indeed.
What are the six ‘musketeers’ including Ojo Madu… still doing in Saudi Arabia? It was a wasted journey but at least it ‘drove’ Yar’Adua back home. Yar’Adua is like a tax evader and he is evading Section 144 of the 1999 Constitution.Madu had to say that they were not going to visit Yar’Adua before they were allowed to travel. By now, the Saudi Government may have ‘let the cat out of the bag’ with medical reports et al. It is now a question of ‘catch’ me if you can? 😀
😀 ^Its a race against time, but I dont bet a coin against the cheer levels of idi0cy that Abuja can create. But they know the very future, of the very idea of Nigeria, is on the balance here.I do hope everyone gets to bear his papa name as a final result here, even if I doubt if it would actually happen. Those Hausa gangsters and their willing accomplices down south – I am sick and tired of them.
