torhuke: If GEJ and his cabinet is the Definition of Daftness, OH lord my GOD make me as daft as all of them this 2014.
@ OP, pls tell ndi igbo. Me I say it anywhere I go no matter d opposition that GEJ is the best thing that has happend to Nigeria so far. Like u said, APC is just a gang up against a sitting president and they will soon fall like a pack of cards.

Mynd_44: So we are back to the usual ethno-religious politics right?

Okay, I stay in the south west, Lagos in particular and I ask why I should vote GEJ in 2015. I am here right now wondering what the hype about GEJ is all about and you say he is developing ALL parts of the country.

What has he done that I can see and point to that he did and lets start from there. I keep saying that politics is not about what you say but what you can point to. When was the last time the FG commissioned a major project in the SW that affects me? When did any policy made by the FG affect me positively apart from the institionalization of corruption?

You keep saying Igbos should vote GEJ butt you forget that the SE and SS alone can't make him president.

The current apathy towards GEJ is a performance thing and not tribal but people would not listen cos we love to view things through our own myopia.

The current kick cluelessness out of Aso Rock by 2015 is not an anti-GEJ campaign, it is one that means we dont want a clueless leader. If between now and 2015, GEJ proves himself a worthy president, he gets my vote and that of a lot of people. That is what politics is about.

If I were an adviser of the president, I would advise that he focus on building projects in the regions where support for him is dwindling as that would increase his popularity but the current divide and rule thing will be his waterloo.

torhuke:
Bros, u will be deceiving your self to say that that GEJ isn't doing much. Our hopes are high as a people and that is what the opposition is taking advantage of. GEJ is listenning and working assidously to move this country forward. there are too many sboteurs working assidously too to make sure he fails. Like your signature, politics is a dichotomy of good and evil. GEJ is good and APC is evil.

Onlytruth:
At first I thought that APC was a truly national
party with plans better than those of the incumbent,
but the more I look the less I see, or should I say the
WORSE I see.

If we do this, I promise you that APC will "go and die" somewhere outside of our territory!

solomon111: Can any intelligent APC apologist give me one good reason why i should vote for APC and be ready to thoroughly defend it.

1MCN: @OP, I think you should rather say that Nigerians should stick with GEJ, and not just Nd'Igbo 'cause the SS and SE bloc votes alone can't make him president according to our Laws, if you truly want him returned.
@Mynd, you said you stay in Lagos and cannot see a single FG project in the area that affects your area. I wonder where the trains were first rehabilitated. After Abuja, no other state has recieved more attention in this gov't than Lagos, but the gov't and people chose to be what Igbos call "ori ago". They're a steep opposition state and will corrosively rust out any FG interventions just so that people will be kept to the opposition. You remember MMIA rehabilitation, Lekki seaport project, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway, etc. Just remove hate, listen to the other side of the story. Maybe you'd come to know how much you've been intentionally and mischievoulsy under-informed. Even Fashola himself knows in his heart that the FG under Jonathan has been uncommonly progressive and helpful, but for party reasons he dares not say it. Have you ever heard him fall out on any issue with the President? I hope you know he's groaning under pain with the Jagaban and is on the brink of exploding? Just give us six months or less, and then remind me this comment.

Afam4eva: I think Igbo should be left to decide personally who they want to vote for and should not be cajole based on ethnic sentiments. But for me personally, i think the devil i know is better than the angel i don't know. I'll stick with Jonathan for now cos if what i'm hearing from APC is anything to go by, there's going to be a Northern presidential candidate and a SW vice and i don't see how that portends anything for Ndigbo. As much as Jonathan is not a messiah, i think his tenure as president has touched on some salient issues facing the east and even Nigeria. If our eye is on the presidency, then as things stands, we stand more chance of sticking with Jonathan as even if he decides to hand over to a Northerner after his tenure in 2019 or even 2015, most definitely, there would be an Igbo vice. That's my personal submission.

Clerverly: Op, no need to reiterate it we all know, While the major ethnic groups negotiate and build bridges of political roads, we take the easier route of pandering to any government in power. It is not a Jonathan thing, PDP or APGA factor, it is just a case of people who have either deliberately refused to tow a path of political sagacity or people who have allowed selfish political opportunists masquerading as leaders to brainwash and shape their political thought. Have you forgotten easily the Obasanjo Third Term brouhaha, with exception of Nnamani, Orji Kalu and Chukwumerije, the rest Igbo leaders of note were champions of the third therm, including the so called Igbo Governors you are celebrating now as arrowhead of your political future .

I can bet with anything that, when APC takes over in 2015, the South East noise about "our Jonathan' will naturally die when appointments start flying up and down. So spare us this your archaic political enlightenment
