you think most of them know the responsibilities of their local government or state government?

Details from: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/05/31/wh-us-solider-held-in-afghanistan-bergdahl-is-released-after-five-years/

MissMeiya:

This is hilarious. So what is the federal government responsible for? Security? Oh, wait...

anonimi: Going through many comments here makes one wonder why WE Nigerians HATE OUR country and by extension OURSELVES so much
Is it not the same America of New York Times where this happened













America's President Barrack Hussein Obama had to release five hardened Taliban/Al Qaeda terrorists from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba in order to secure the release of the one DESERTER soldier.
Can I hear someone say Goodluck America

Let us learn to APPRECIATE our country and our leaders' efforts in the face of daunting challenges.
If we do not then we open ourselves up to ABUSE and DISRESPECT as a collective by foreigners as in this NYT rebuke that does not in anyway positively contribute to resolving the issue it claims to address.

naturalmi: Everyone seem to be critizing GEJ and fine I need to ask some questions. Have any Nigeria President done better than GEJ since democracy? If you are saying GEJ should be voted out, is it not the same selfish politicians that will get in there? GEJ may nt be the best bt better than many others. Until you show me a better person(I hope Buhari or Tinubu is not what u mean ) then GEJ have my vote. Don't forget they promised to make the country ungovernable for him and that's why bombings are so rampant so don't blame him if YOU can't do better!

BetaThings:
Tell us what Jonathan has done, not just announced, but done!
Selfish politicians? Really
A man who has approved "common stealing" as an acceptable occupation?
There are so many Nigerians who are better than Jonathan
[size=18pt]But as soon as anyone shows interest in politics, in the present climate, they must find away to implicate him or frustrate his business[/size]
They can call him Boko Haram sponsor!

The government, especially a narrow-mided and divisive one, like Jonathan's can find a way to frustrate anyone in Nigeria
Newspapers have been lawfully impounded, vendors harrased, governors confined, etc

immortalvoices: Typical E-nigeria I don't knw why the hackers didn't hack and wipe out ur nairaland accts which u guys use to spew thrash about the president as if u guys can do better....


Everytime u guys put blame on each other... How I wish u guys will understand the America view on africa


"See Africom the africa nato" on google.


Meanwhile stop the counter blames and let's put our country in good light...

VICTORCIZA: SOMEBODY TELL THE AMERICANS TO SHUT THE Bleep UP AND SIT THEIR GAY CURSED BOTTOMS DOWN. HOW MANY YEARS DOES IT TAKE AMERICA TO GET OSAMA BIN LADEN??
I HATE HYPOCRITES!!!
AMERICA LEAVE US ALONE AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS. HOW ARE WE EVEN SURE YOU GUYS ARE NOT SPONSORING BOKOHARAM?
THIS IS NIGERIA. GEJ IS A NIGERIA, HE IS LOVED BY MAJORITY OF NIGERIANS! THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS!!!

MissMeiya:

All you proved is the lengths America would go to to rescue their own.

sunny_b0b0:

Unfortunately for you and your likes, the international community won't vote in 2015.

DesChyko: Has APC infiltrated New York Post?
I'm quite disappointed with this newsbit.
If they weren't going to input anything constructive than this blame, they had better sheathed their pens.
In the face of these threats, the last thing we[i][/i] will welcome is external pen pressure.
Nigerians generate enough mass 'pressure' as it seems.

GentleMimi: I expect some fools to dance in here and applaud the foreign article....
Jonathan should learn to ignore those people. They think they have every right to delve into the affairs of other countries. We have enough on our hands,we dn't need their problems added to it. If they cannot make their contributions or constructive criticism,they shld kindly face the problems embattling their own country.
Everybody wants to use the Nigerian crisis to shine...lol. But some of us are too foolish to realize we are merely pawns.
Nigeria will never fail.

SirAweezy:

Mehnnn... I'm trying so hard to forgive myself for voting him.. Back then I knew I was taking the wrong step for GEJ. And right now is even so hard to point @one credible candidate to lead us. APC to me is not a forward moving party. they are Antagonist, un-orderly, full with Godfather-ism.. I mean how can we progress with such people as a nation it's like digging PDP's hells pit again.

Are they not atleast supposed to be putting some social responsibility has a party for people to benefit. All they do is Antagonize and antagonize while they adopt all the Judas in PDP that will still end up betraying them. An adage says: "The cain we use for the Old wife is still within reach to use on the New wife"

Honestly Nigeria is in trouble.. We need divine help and miracle.. We have no leader anywhere!

anonimi:

After how many years
Have you heard the word- PATIENCE? Do uou understand its MEANING?
Was Jonathan's Op-Ed not about the "quiet efforts" being made by his administration to ensure the girls are released
Is that any different from what Obama's America did gor five years in the missing soldier's case
Again why do we have so much INFERIORITY complex & HATRED for ourselves?

Marilyn_Nash: He is supposed to know what to do, he is suppose to do better! Did we elect him there for fancy? Is he not suppose to lead us and solve our problems? Was that not what he promised to do? And YOU know it's in a bad light and you want us to fold our hands and pretend everything is alright when over 200 girls are suffering abuse? God will judge you. Open your eyes to the truth and stop being led by blinded sentiment.
Southerners support Jonathan because BH attack the North so they don't care, truth is, there is little or no spirit of Nationalism in us, as long as it doesn't affect us we don't care about others. God help Nigeria.

beremole: No one is telling us how exactly they want the girls to be rescued alive, all they do is criticise.
What about their US soldiers who are here to ''give us advice''?
What useful advice have they given?

adconline:
That's why we elected a president to come up with solutions and ideas! Fool. It's not my job to profer solutions. The president can go ask Algerian president how he dealt with terrorism under 24hrs in 2013. Folks like u keep making excuses for incompetent leadership.

immortalvoices:

The above quote will be better rada dan ridiculing and abusing him...at least no body said it was easy
Let's all join hand and continue to create awareness rada dan abuse!

MissMeiya:

Can you imagine? They say "respect him, he's above you" then turn around and equate us by asking if we can do better. Which is it?

adconline:
In 2013, terrorists in Algeria took hostage of about 800 oil workers, the govt launched rescue operation under 24hrs; rescued nearly all the kidnapped worked and then captured and killed all the terrorists WITHOUT international support. Now,we are asking peasants in the village and bushes to chime in with their ideas.. Guess what? The president is allergic to ideas and views that are contrary to the ones espoused by pot bellied advisers and sycophants.

Marilyn_Nash: For how long are we going to create awareness? Throughout his tenure? Let him do something!

VICTORCIZA: SOMEBODY TELL THE AMERICANS TO SHUT THE Bleep UP AND SIT THEIR GAY CURSED BOTTOMS DOWN. HOW MANY YEARS DOES IT TAKE AMERICA TO GET OSAMA BIN LADEN??

Mogidi:

Do something like what? Kneel down and beg Buhari to stop bombing us, that will never happen.
