This is not time for politics, please. The Just can not just be killed just cheaply. Buhari is a very straight forward personality. I cherish his dogma, his principles and everything he believes in. If actually he was the prime target of the attacks, then those attackers are horde of criminals fighting against the Truth. Thank God Buhari was not killed because what would have followed is better imagined! Allah Kiyaye.
