Dead today, alive tomorrow, clone today, Fake (Jibril) tomorrow and now chronically ill and suffering from dementia. These are some of the words and characteristics that have been used and are still being used to describe the Nigerian sitting President. With elections fast approaching, the voices chanting and ascribing these attributes to Mr President continues to grow and amongst these are people of high intelligence, whose intelligence I respect. This has greatly cast doubt on my own ability to rationally digest issues. I have therefore embarked on this voyage to seek self redirection and enlightenment.
I have searched my mind and reason, I have called all of my intellectual capacity to aid, but I am yet to understand or come to grasp with, how a single man can be all these at the same time. How can a man be dead, be alive, be a clone, be a fake and at the same time still be chronically ill? I am at my tethers end regarding this and have come to the end of my ability to understand, hence I have come out to openly request the assistance of those who know and ascribe our President with these characteristics to help me understand. There is no shame in pleading ignorance, so please do not throw tantrums and insults at me. This is not an inquisition of your intelligence, but an honest quest to learn from your podium of high reason. Treat me softly and gently therefore because I seek to learn with humility. Scare me not away.
As a fairly educated and rational adult, I have been somewhat befuddled by the possibility of a person being pronounced dead, and them becoming a clone, a fake and then become sick again as the same person. And since we have children, young impressionable minds, who are future leaders of this country reading us, the chances are that they are even more confused and their sense of truth or what is wrong or right badly impaired by this seeming oxymoron of existential facts.
It is therefore for personal edification and for the removal of confusion from the minds of our upcoming leaders that I bring this burning issue once again, to the global public square to be examined one after the other for the purpose of knowledge and public mental health.
THE QUESTIONS: please answer truthfully and with facts as your children including mine are listening and you are being recorded for posterity. I will keep them simple and direct.
1: Is it possible for a man to have died in a London hospital and still be alive and “chronically” ill in Aso Rock?
2: How scientifically possible is it to clone a seventy five years old man and have him presented in exert copy in less than a year. Answer with known scientific authorities.
3: How can a clone, if your answer to 2 above is yes, be a clone and also be Jibril from Sudan at the same time?
4: How can one man be all of the above at once?
5:How can a man who is suffering from acute dementia and memory loss be visiting/receiving and interacting with foreign leaders, local and international media, attending public ceremonies, sit through them without losing concentration, read through long speeches without straying or memory loss, as evidenced daily and at the recent commissioning of the new Terminal Building of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport?
6: Which of the Buhari is sick in Aso Rock and suffering from memory loss and dementia? The dead Buhari, the clone or Jibril?
7:And finally for today, what effects do you think these stories which conflicts with visual and factual evidences have on the cognitive growth of our children?
Thanks in anticipation of your factual answers
