“Today’s remembrance of President Muhammadu Buhari struck something in me again. Buhari is someone I describe as having farin jini from Almighty ALLAH.
“People loved him, and sometimes I felt it was for no reason. When he died a year ago, leaders and people in positions of power from across the world, especially Africa, came to pay their respects.
“Just one year later, only a handful remain for the remembrance. Trust me, as the years go by, that number will become even smaller.
“By ALLAH’s decree, perhaps one or two of his children may attain a fraction of what he attained, but even that is never guaranteed. I am only reflecting because this life is truly fickle. Fame fades. Power passes. Crowds move on. In the end, nothing even remains as we all die.”@HauwaAllahbura
“The love I have for Buhari can’t be qautified up till the last moment. Millions of responsibile people love him for his integrity and conviction. He is not a normal Nigeria politician who talk from both sides of his mouth. We truly missed him but alas every one of us must die.”@aukamk104
