Centenary celebration, a dance on the graves of murdered students - Atiku

Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar says the centenary celebration currently going on in Abuja to mark the 100 years of Nigeria's Amalgamation is disrespectful to the memory of the recently murdered FGC students in Yobe state. His tweets above...

Meanwhile the families of late Fela Anikulapo Kuti and Chief Gani Fawehinmi have rejected the Post Humous Awards the Federal Government is to bestow on both Gani and Fela at a Centenary Awards which will hold later today at the Banquet Hall State House in Abuja. Continue...

The Fawehinmi family say nominating their father in the same category with former Military Head of State, General Gbadamosi Babangida and the recent killing of students in Yobe state are their reasons for turning down the award.

Femi Kuti who spoke  on behalf of the Kuti Family say they have not yet received any apologies from the government for the burning of the Kalakuta Republic in 1977 and also for the killing of his grandmother, Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti and so cannot receive the award.

Other Nigerians to be awarded today include
Sir Samuel Manuwa, Professor John Edozien, Dr Moses Majekodunmi, Professor Olikoye Ransome-Kuti, Professor Oladipo Akinkugbe, Professor Latunde Odeku, Professor­ Nelson Oyesiku and Dr. Funmi Olopade, Professor Oyin Olurin, Professor Orishejolomi­ Thomas, Chief MKO Abiola, Professor Bello Osagie, Dr Beko Ransome-Kuti, Professor Ade Elebute, Dr Akinola Maja, Professor Femi Williams, Professor Ambrose Alli, Dr Dalhatu Tafida, Professor Ishaya Audu, Professor Oladele Ajose and Professor Tola Adebonojo, Chief Micheal Adenuga among others.­

I totally agree with Atiku on this one, we shouldn't be ccelebrating, instead the President should look for a solution so this killings in the Northern part of the country.

BONARIO NNAGS said...

Lemme for once hold brief for GEJ as it pertains this issue,its quite unfortunate that this ugly incidents are coincedentally happening when we planned celebrating 100years of a forced marriage. Long ago this occasion has been scheduled to take place on this day and postponing it will further add to the already bloated ego of this terrorists.
But where I found the FG culpable is in the area of sympathizing with this people.
It would av gone a long way in providing some sort of closure to the bereaved families had GEJ visited the state atleast to show concern.
Instead the VP was in Lagos for a presidential Ball. That doesn't show empathy.

For the first time Atiku spoke like a leader.The celebration going on in ABj is uncalled for.Imagine poor kids,families,schools,homes and a lot more are in great grief,and yet those big men in power are busy jubilating.Not to talk of the money being wasted!mtcheew somhow for Nigeria

May the souls of the children rest in peace. Atiku should not politicize their death bcos definitely he will reap what he sows. He is hiding in shame. Let him continue to make the presidency ungovernable. He who killed by sword must die by the sword. only God knows the heart of man.

Yeah its very very disrespectful to the students and to all the victims of the north killings, the celebration should have been cancelled, but atiku is no better than Jonathan, atiku is an elder states man, he has been in politics for long without meaningful change, both atiku and GEJ are same of same, if he has a way to end the crisis in the north he should not wait to take power by all means under the platform of APC in 2015 while our brothers and sisters are dying in the north, he should start now to proffer solution to the unending crisis in the north, all our leaders past and present should put heads together and fight this boko haram, this is not the time to carry out a calculated attack on one another because we are trying to increase our political relevance or to increase the political tension in country

ATIKU SHOULD GO AND REST, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH SOME LEVEL OF CELEBRATION, THE PLAN OF BOKO HARAM AND SPONSORS IS TO MAKE SURE WE DON'T CELEBRATE, BUT THEY HAVE FAILED. ATIKU SHOULD SEND A TWEET TO HIS BROTHERS TO STOP KILLING PEOPLE INSTEAD OF CONDEMNING THE PRESIDENT.

@jaybeyblu Are u stupid or you are were just born foolish? 50 kids are dead, 20 children abucted, villages been destroyed, livelihoods in complete jeopardy, people dying recklessly, 20 billion dollars missing and many more heinous crimes committed and you want jonathan to celebrate? celebrate what? amalgamation? and yet there is still slavery in a lot of nigerians life, children being used as maids, beaten recklessly by their employers/slave masters. if you were to know one of the students, you wouldnt speak like this... I am absolutely disgusted by each one and every nigerian... completely disgusted. imagine our celebrities travelling all the way to abuja to honour a man that need not be as a patron yet behind his back they say foul things about him. I am in absolute disgust. I say this, and i will keep saying this if 'fools' were leading us, then we the citizens are even bigger fools, so much shouldnt be expected from the citizens.

Anonymous said...

Please these people should shut the fuck up. I've never commented on a post but I must on this. Maybe write an an article on Jonathan's regime.

First of all, my condolences to the families affected and the kids injured from the attack.

My rationale:

Biko. because you are against the president doesnt mean you should bury your senses in a grave and paint him black. This centenary celebrations or whatever they are celebrating was long planned for and so much money was invested/wasted as usual and it was only okay for them to celebrate whatever they were/are celebrating. It is only unfortunate this sad incident happened just same time as this celebrations.

You all sit back and point fingers and blab. What makes you feel they dont have the families of those affected in mind? I'm very sure they will pay them condolence visits when the celebration is over, until then you can blab.

The most annoying part is, most people condemning Jonathan are northernerns yet na them still be Boko haram. If you are so hurt, why not form another group to fight Boko haram? Yes you can do it, Not just Mr. Jonathan.

I'm only just saying things as they are, not like i have anything for the president. He doesnt know me and i dont think i know him too cause he hasnt done anything for me nor have i seen what he has done in this country.

One of d thngs that got obama reelected was the way he handled a disaster dt befell NY i thnk close to d end of his last term. If d program was postponed,d international community he had invited wud av been forced to take the BH issue seriously and offer intelligent solutions seeing we/jona have nt been able to handle them alone. Truth dt the boko boys ego wud hav been blown,but jus look at how many points fashola won by changing a name. That said i thnk d way to tackle d BH boys is by intelligence rather than by might.

Stopping the Centenary celebration to honour the murder kids by the blood thirsty these Islamic deviants could have been a VICTORY for the Boko Haramist among us especially these Northerners that have vowed to make this country ungovernable for the current President. The question is, what are so-called Northern Elders being doing all this while to restrain this cowards that detest Western education but they are using western implemments to perpetrate this devious acts! The Northern elites need to have their min-conference to discuss these issues that is directly affecting their region and indirectly rubbishing the country Nigeria.

How easily everyone had forgotten that this bombings might have been a deliberate action to scuttle the centenary! Mind you I don't support the centenary celebrations on its on, but criticisms coming from someone who swore to make the country ungovernable in the event of his loosing political contest, for me is a complete charade and mendacious display of care and concern! These killings are for sure calculated attempts to discredit the event in as much as I don't support the event. One wonders why the tempo of the violence increased at the eve of the suspension of the CBN governor, one known to have huge sentiment on his religion and has carried out violent acts on non-belivers of his religion even to be complicit of murder prior to joining the banking sector. Islam oh yes is a religion of peace! Its pretty obvious!

In Ukraine, about 80 persons died during the protest and the parliament voted out the President. In Naija, we have lost over 100 persons in the last two weeks, all our senators could do is to give award and dance on the grave of the souls that pershed. Life is no longer valued in Nigeria.

I totally disagree with Atiku. What has he done since this Gboko Haram started killing. While are these miscreant always intensify assault whenever the Nigeria President plan national celebration. They attack Abuja during Nigeria 50 years independence because it was GEJ first time as a sitting president. Other subsequent ones put on low key. Now this is 100 years of Nigeria Amalgamation which will not happen again until another 100 years. This is a great honor to GEJ. Those who lost in 2011 election that brought him this rare opportunity will continue with their bad-belle. Gboko Haram is political tools against this Govt.

I hope Atiku is not playing politics with this. Secondly, its quite unfortunate that the deaths happened at a time like this. But nonetheless, those 2 families will never accept awards from the government because it betrays the very essence of what their men were fighting for/against.

Am not holding briefs for GEJ neither am I being disrespectful to the slain students but I seriously chose to differ wit Atiku. The centenary event has been in the pipeline for over a year,money has been spent and dignitaries invited. In my opinion, I think it'll be out of place to put off the centenary celebrations bcos of the FGC incident. Atiku's outburst is ill intended nd obviously aimed at scoring cheap political goals. Elder statement should act as one nd not play kiddies pranks. Atiku pls take a back seat nd stop being mischievous. #my candid opinion though#

He should be more ashamed of the happenings and killings in the north,being the one pf their top dogs.he is sounding like a senseless wimp by also using this terror to also politicise his selfish political ambition!Is it the time for blame?Does he think because he is not in power,he is exempted too?Foolish and heartless men of the govt.if he wants to prove to us that he had this country at heart,this is the time for him and his cohorts need to throw aside their sickly political ambition for peace in the nothern region.but NO,just as i expected,its always about politics.evil men!

Well! To an extent,I think Mr atiku is right. I am not saying the FG should not celebrate but the FG should have done something in honor of the slained students.my question is does mr atiku really have the interest of the slained students at heart or is he just playing mind games(criticising the FG) if he was the president wl he have stopped the event from holding?#politics#

Politicizing a tragedy, is that the way forward, always blame the government of the day to score cheap political point. The crises in the Niger Delta was brought to an end through the efforts of the elders in the south, can't the north do the same, so we can put a stop to all these senseless killings of innocent and defenseless citizens. My condolences to the parents of the slain students and sympathy to the parents of the adlbducted students

Mr Atiku dnt just condemn GEJ and the centenary celebration, We all know its been a long planned event that was scheduled to take place at this period. Sir, all we need you to do, is come out on national TV and tell those sponsoring boko haram and boko haram sect that they are evil and that they will all pay dearly with their own lives soon if they dont stop this wickedness. And we will know you are a patriotic Nigerian.

I don't tink its right for parties to be celebrated wen derz nothing to be happy abt! the party was uncalled for,Mr president should use the money to do beta things ..

All of you that are talking bad aganst GJ dont have sense, the date of this celebration has been put down long time ago and our so called evil northen politicians send their heatless boko haram to kill this children so they can use it against the presedent knowing very well GJ wil not change the date of this event. Atiku and co are the people behind all this killing going on in the north just to use it against the president because killing of those children that cant hurt any one dosnt make any sens to me, is just a set up to use it agains GJ. So you all should think befor you talk

Why am I inconsolable? I close my eyes to sleep and wake up hours later with a salty taste in my mouth only to realise the tears had trickled down my cheeks into my mouth.
Can't seem to get the face of a crying mother out of my head. A woman I'd never seen before, a woman I'll always remember till the day I die. All she did was ask me for water and in all my years, I'd never heard a voice so sad, a voice so lost and hopeless. Looking at her face, I could swear to myself that this woman has never been happy in her life, was sure sorrow had always been a part of her, was sure death was her god and sorrow was her eternity.
How wrong I was for she reached into her handbag and there was a picture of her and a cute boy and I realised that beauty had gone to war against sorrow and lost. Her son was killed in the FGC Yobe by a bunch of devil advocates. My heart weeps for her, ma soul cries out, for nobody should ever bury a child. A child whose greatest problem a couple of minutes before his demise was a senior, the boarding house master or how to sneak out of his room after light-outs. I pray the Lord comforts you and your family. But how do you comfort a mother who lost her son so violently. Certainly, not by inviting her for a centenary celebration.
Console us all dear Lord and put this period of grief behind us.

Anonymous said...

Its called empathy fool. Maybe you should try it sometime. Would GEJ ve continued with the celebration if his son was murdered? We cannot continue to keep up appearances in the face of sorrow. GEJ acts like he doesn't care if Nigeria burns as long as he can remain president of the asses.

The question is, if you are preparing to throw a huge party for your birthday and two days to the day your mum or dad or even a very close friend dies, would you still go on with the party? If you think Still is wrong then you are a fool and amongst the bunch killing this country.

OMG!WOMAN said...

I thought this honoury award was scheduled before before the massacre, is he insinuating that it should have been cancelled, he's really trying so hard to eat into the heart of Nigerians... And as for the Kuti's reason for rejecting this, just doesn't make sense, what happened in Kalakuta was enforced under the military rigime, and Obasanjo had personal beef with Late Fela, The Nigerian govt got little to do with that, or is the Kuti family expecting an apology from Nigerians as a whole? Good luck is as innocent as the rest of us on that matter.

Yes for that reason, it shldnt hold and I pray and wish its your daughter, sister or mother that was killed....maybe your father will be out dancing now..idiot..

Anonymous said...

Bonario, I don't agree that canceling/postponing the planned celebration will swell their(boko haram) egos. I think it will bring to the fore how dire the security situation in the country is.
People/nation should come 2geda in times of sorrow and console one another. Our sorrows and joys should be collective. That's a definition of a society. I guess that doesn't apply to Nigeria, a state where the rich are so wealthy and the poor are so poor. A country where its alright for my neighbour to die as long as I'm alive. this kind of behavior and shameless display of wealth, joy, gluttony is not only wrong but insesnsitive when lots of people are sad.
PS: take all you can, give nothing back.

The celebration should have been low profiled. 20 girls were abducted and still missing, scores of innocent vibrant lives were massacred at their prime and all you could do is expose buccal cavity like a herbivore forced to sleep in a bed burning under with woods.

Atiku and the Northern Elders are godamn hypocrites. they are not bothered by the innocent blood that are daily shed in the North. They are only concerned with playing politics with it. Instead of finding ways of ending this bloody tragedy, their main concern is how to drag Gen. Ihejirika to ICC, etc. Any way, they are used to shedding innocent blood. This one shouldn't be different. It is just part of their stupid politics.

“Gradually but noticeably, Nigerians appear to have lost the appetite to celebrate anything. Embedded in our newfound affinity for low key celebration and an infinite state of sober reflection is the true state of the nation.

“Can we really celebrate when our children are being slaughtered while at school? Can we really celebrate when our fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters are being slaughtered like chickens?

“Can we really celebrate when our fellow citizens live in constant and growing fear of kidnappers, hired assassins and armed robbers? Can we really celebrate when those constitutionally empowered to protect us turn their fury on us?

Oga Jona, we have heard enough of these your super-story, tackle the problem at hand, we need security, our children are killed daily in schools, is this the way to train up the future leaders?
We their parents can't go to work because no petrol and businesses are down due to that too.
