AND THE NATION LOST ITS PRESIDENT...

As many of you probably know, Nigeria's President Yar'Adua passed away.

He was only 58.

May he rest in peace, and my condolences to his family.

It is sad that things could not have ended differently. It all seems so anti-climactic.

My thoughts on the political ramifications are at Nigerian Curiosity.

But, ultimately, I just wish his family and the nation, the very best.

I loved the quiet dignity of our late president and pray his soul rests in peace. But that foolish wife of his....nearly stole all vestiges of dignity from him with her power-play.

I'm I alone in thinking he probably died ages ago? subterfuge afoot, but I will not speak ill of the departed.

The president is dead, long live the president!

May his soul finally rest in peace. He had been sick for a while. He tried while he was president. Seemed a decent man. God's strength to his family.
