All former Nigerian Presidents and Heads of State have been engaged in one activity or the other to contribute to Nation building even after leaving office except Gen Buhari. We know about the Yakubu Gowon Foundation and its commendable effort at eradicating polio in Nigeria and Africa. Also Gen Obasanjos African Leadership Forum has been involved in leadership training and development in Nigeria and Africa. Gen IBB has continued to play diplomatic roles in the West African Sub region. General Abdulsalami Abubakar, has served variously as ECOWAS special envoy to war-torn countries in West Africa. These Former Nigerian Leaders have continued to use their names and personalities to serve Nigeria, West Africa, Africa and the world. And they are not tired in so. Today, i challenge every Buharist to name one developmental venture Gen Buhari has done to contribute to the well being of Nigerians, West Africans or Africans. Or any nursery, primary, secondary or tertiary institution that he has built or donated in any part of the country since leaving office as Head of State 30 years ago. How has Nigeria and Nigerians benefited in the name-recognition of Gen Buhari? All Gen Buhari does is to isolate himself from Nigerians only to resurface during elections. Nigerians do not have short memories! They will re-visit Gen Buharis past! This is not the character Nigeria needs, we need people who have connected and identified with us even in trying times
