#PrayForYusuf #RecoverSoonYusuf: 3 Lessons President Muhammadu Buhari Should Learn

President Muhammadu Buhari should learn from events happening around him currently. Nigeria's number one citizen is still grappling with the ongoing fuel crisis. And he is yet to provide a tangible solution to the scarcity.

Just a few days ago, Buhari's son, Yusuf was reported to have had a head injury during a motorbike crash. The handsome young Buhari was rushed to a hospital at Abuja, Nigeria's capital.

Rumours later revealed that Yusuf was flown to Germany for further treatment. However, this was debunked, as the injured young Buhari continues to receive and respond to treatment.

A large number of Nigerians have started praying for him to get back to his feet. Two hashtags, #PrayForYusuf #RecoverSoonYusuf, are also being tweeted to show the message of love and care for Yusuf.

In addition, Aisha Buhari, the president wife and some other first wives, are said to be at the bedside of Yusuf. Infact information has it that the young Buhari is in a state of coma presently.

Naijaloveinfo got the information that, Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari’s son Yusuf, who was severely injured in a motorbike accident in Gwanripa area of Abuja on Tuesday is “responding” to treatment but yet to speak to anyone because he is still in “coma” according to Presidency sources.

It is true that President Buhari is not in the best frame of mind presently, however, he needs to learn three things from his son's current health predicament.


1. All men are born equal

What happened to Yusuf could have happened to any other Nigerian. This is not the first time the young Buhari will be riding his motorbike. Therefore, there should be compassion in how people in government treat the suffering masses.


2. Every position has its limitations

Being a president does not mean a person and his family are free from hazard. Anything can happen to both the mighty and the low.

President Buhari is called the number one, occupying the most sort after position in the land, yet he is now facing some series of challenges. The new one being Yusuf's bike crash and treatment.


3. The citizens should always be number one

How many people in position of authority see the ordinary Nigerians as human beings. Elected political office holders only see the citizens as materials, which should be used and discarded, when the need arises, like during elections.

There is a big lesson that for all power holders that they are just as human as the people they lead, despite all their paraphernalia.

Gambling involves staking a certain amount of money or possession in the hope of winning something bigger or in multiples.

7 Greatest Sportsmen Of All Time

There are often arguments and counterarguments on who the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time are. Some sports historians, analysts, and supporters pick their own choices not necessarily on facts but emotions.  In picking the 7 greatest sportsmen of all time, I briefly checked their achievements not just in their specific fields but also their impact outside the world of sports. 1. Boxing legend, Muhammad Ali has been crowned the best sports athlete of all time in a star-studded list. The 'Greatest' is widely considered the best boxer in history and arguably the most iconic sports star of the 20th century.  Ali was not just a beauty to watch in the boxing ring, the greatest pugilist positively influenced decisions in many countries globally.  2. Pele is widely picked as the winner, and number one football player in history in all criteria. His three-time World Cup-winning feat, from four World Cup appearances, is unlikely to be matched. Pele scored a Guinness World Record of 1279
