I really don't understand why there is so much emotion related to talks about voting out GEJ. Anyone who is exposed and understands how things work elsewhere will appreciate that GEJ will be voted out unanimously in most civilised Nations because he has failed woefully in tackling the major problems that have always stifled the development of Nigeria.

There are perennial probllems which will ensure Nigeria remains underdeveloped. A President like GEJ who has actually made some of these problems worse only deserve to be booted out as will be the case without doubt in nations where ethnic or sectional bias does not turn citizens into worshippers of mediocrities and apologists of gross leadership failure.

I had a good laugh when some chap was foaming at the mouth about SW "marginalisation". Shocking how backward some Nigerians remain in this iinformation age of progressive ideas..

No talks of socoi-economic progress, optimal healthcare, independent and effective institutions, reform of thw NPF or adoption of state policing, growth of SMEs, modern infrastructure et al and some caveman is blabbing about "presence at the centre" as if that can put food on the table of the average south west indigene. Na real wa for some people sha.

Go and Google why Buhari toppled the govt. As for me the worst democracy is better than the best military govt, if Buhari had not overthrown Shagari by now we would have strengthened our democratic institutions, now he wants democracy, that singular coup is one of the reasons we ve had people like Abacha and IBB, pls Buharii should go and sit down, a coupist should not be allowed in our nascent democracy, let APC bring a marketable candidate then we can talk of contest, and let APC make every other part of this country feel welcomed in their party.

Exact reason why history and government should be made compulsory at the secondary level of education in Nigeria.

The coup that brought Shagari's government down was led by Gen. Badamasi Babaginda, financed by TY. Danjuma, and Buhari selected. Surely, you know the military rule: The most senior military officer takes charge of government. Regardless of him taking part in it or not. Superiority is paramount.

As for people being left out in government, what would APC do? Take over states and provide infrastructure? Depose governors? APC can, and would only perform in states it's been elected inti, and nothing more. Heck, if people decide to view things through ethnic and religious lenses, even if APC presents someone as saintly as Jesus, he/she would still be rejected!

The truth is that most of you are just big time mediocres, gloating on others while the so called development you bandy about in your enclave is way below international standard.

You can talk whatever you like about Enugu airport, at least for the first time the FG supported the construction of an airport in Igboland. It was done in other region way back by FG, while South East was neglected by past regime, it was only GEJ that did nt neglect it. Meanwhile we are the only people to construct an airport without any govt support in this Country: Owerri Airport.

Talking about 2nd Niger bridge, yes we are long due for it, the 3rd mainland, carter and other big bridges around the nation was done by the FG, what is good for the goose is good for the gander.

Final shot most of you gloating over the SE we will see how far, 15years ago Chinas infrastructure was nothing to right home about. Fast foward today they are beating some top Countries infrastructure wise eg US doesnt have a world class railway linking the entire Country while China with its size has modern fast speed bullet trains that linked the entire Country. Yea keep on gloating us, the East is rising, it may not be noticeable now, but by the time most of you haters will realise that it will be like a slap on your face, maybe then if you want to visit the wonders in SE you will have to go through intensive visa scrutiny.

Thanks for the 'schooling' so called student of history and govt.
Now let me tell you that Shagari’s regime (1979-1983), incurred Buhari’s wrath when it decided to investigate the US$2.8 billion that disappeared from the Midland Bank, London account of the Nigerian National Petroleum Cooperation, (NNPC), during General Obasanjo’s era as military head of state that preceded Shagari’s.  Dr. Olusola Saraki, Turaki of Ilorin, was the majority party leader of the Senate at the time and he headed the Senate Committee set up to trace the stolen money after some three years of clamour for such an investigation by members of the civil society.  The money was traced to the Midland Bank London branch fixed account of Obasanjo’s appointee as military head of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company.  The Committee’s report was presented to the Senate during the tail end of Shagari’s regime in 1983, so the House decided to deal with the matter and expose the rogue military head of the NNPC soon after the 1983 general elections. 
Then you 'saint' Buhari struck with his cohorts, now ask yourself 'history student' who benefited from the coup and as you and I know the report was swept under the carpet. Quote me again, I'll give you details of how he went about imprisoning right activists, banned freedom of speech etc

Good sir, do we then compare that to what GEJ is doing in terms of corruption from NNPC,CBN,SEC etc the shielding and granting of amnesty to convicted felons. Enabling the reversal of conviction for political gains.As Gov and deputy gov can we please check his current wealth accumulation?Even the military is so corrupt now than ever! The crisis brewing in the nation has created avenue for senior officers stealing. We don't even want to check contract allocations and other stealing currently
being offered to polical elements and ex militants. The current drain on the funds in the FGN purse is now at an all time free!!! Even the subsidy drive is riddle with corruption and all sorts of allegation. The flood relief fund is a story of its own. The military campaign and current mutiny due to equipments and allowance is happening now.As C in C the military has lost any semblance of functionality because of diversion on priorities and corruption. Its not about prolong decay, is about managing the current so called scarce resource and managing crisis efficientl .Between when BH started and now its more than a enough time to have acquired enough hardware to reverse the decay or at least tackle one crisis to a hault. Unless if your excuse is to issue money and go to sleep,never to ask where are things and gains made. If Cameron can do it ,We should call it a piece of cake for the mobilepolice.
Press freedom had a taste of FGN,when the army targeted papers critical of his government under the guise of fighting terrorism.Did they find anything, I mean bush and Iraq comes to mind! publicly apologize. Currently we have Intel and allegations of BH sponsors flying around,we are yet to see the army storm there homes in like manner or challenge them publicly.Again so much con incidence Azazzi had to die for it after getting the instant booth. The Australian has spoken again and we are waiting, shall it be in vain or shall we ask him like October one to pick his names from a particular party or ethnic group?
If someone can stand aside watch his wife conive with the FCT to illegally snatch property from belonging to his former boss wife and he remains mute then that's some awesome greedy family.
please what of the pension scam/fraud ? What of Otedola and Farouk ? What of the Ribadu report sent to him on the NNPC and funds taking a walk?
For me it goes beyond defending his position!GEJ as president stands on power and the peoples mandate to deal with anyone caught destroying the nation!Some GEjites will rather accuse his subordinates than blame him . Men that are hired and directed from the top by him.If he was running a failing business, caused by his employee will he do the same?. If he could wake up one morning and reshuffle his cabinet just to flush out people that are no longer loyalist then that man has the power to sack incompetent ministers or government workers for any wrong doing or negligence or not following instructions or due process.
We could compare this dispensation and see who tops the chart.They claim he is providing more infrastructure than all past government ,I just laugh.Did he build the Niger bridge,Benue bridge or third mainland! Someone before him did and he merely is renovating a part of it. He didn't bring railways to Nigeria someone brought it from zero in the past and it flourished. He is not the first to bring universities to Nigeria nor the highest number of universities, I mean his school was built by some before him and he went to school despite no shoes, can you that under his goverment?The federal highways were done by someone from ground Zero before he got renovate a hand full of them . The FCT Aso rock, Abuja and all infratsructure.More airports were built before his government by some other leaders. Abuse Obj but even looking at the telcom sector I mean you attest to something he brought from Zero to something today!!! He is not the Longest or shortest serving Nigerian Leader nor the first Democratically Elected!
Every government had its draw back and achievements and he is no better.Its his time and from records he is not the best.Insecurity- For the records militancy, terrorism or crisis did not start from his government.Different challenges came with different leadership and the leaders ensured it never spiraled out of control through wisdom,courage and foresight. He lacks that seriously and choose to lay the blames on others. I know leaders that because of there position you know just how much you can push them to test there limits. And you surly don't want to go there. But the trend of BH keeps testing his resolve and at every stage his actions and response has made it rather worse and embolden them further. Yaradua quelled the first sign of insurgency and while he GEJ choose to dangle around same resurgences and let the flames burn. Yar dua also manage the ND militancy crisis despite inheriting it from the past.Obj tackle the numerous interreligious and ethnic crisis in his own way and we never had it this bad. Today animosity has grown amongst the tribes,religious divide is terrible and all he does is blow his silly allegations and political maneuvers.
Truly sad and pathetic that he choose to play victim with the power he will still use against any political opposition

ola6: I am from the SW and I, my family, friends and friends of the family will vote for Jonathan. Tinubu marginalised us not GEJ. The pposition of the speaker was zoned to the SW but Tinubu, because of his greed and never ending quest for power voted against it so as to make himself the most powerful man in the SW and prevent a rally point for the SW at the center.


You APC asslickers don't know what is coming to you. Just watch out....and btw, tell the master rigger Aregbesola to start packing his load...

You cannot be a true Westerner, we don't accept tokenism by ' calling a goat brother because we want to eat meat'

Of what benefit is a speaker position in opposition hands to westerners when with proper alliances we can have the presidency on our side and occupy it in a few years. With PDP we will have to wait for the next 20 years.

A westerner PDP speaker at this time will only serve him/herself and Jonathan and will do nothing for us than serve as rallying point for the evil PDP, we don't have such short memory.

BTW what did speaker Bankole achieve for the West apart from going to exchange blow with Gbenga Daniel on the uncompleted Sango-Ota bridge?

You can never understand as you were raised in a completely different culture, we are not AGIP or hungry anything goes people. Other Nigerian groups may genuflect, kow-tow and toshiba to the powers that be because of a plate of food but not Yorubas. We operate on principle backed by long term strategy. We don't allow what we will eat today becloud the need for long range planning and investment. That is why we committed 40% of our income to human capacity development.

Imagine the strength PDP would have been pulling today in the West if they had a Yoruba speaker, but you can never understand how a people will let go any opportunity to 'chop' in Nigeria.

We are the only people that can mount opposition to the misrule of any leader and demonstrate undying love to performance, integrity and sincerity irrespective of place of origin. Need i go on?

Let me give u a short analysis why GEJ will pull a strong vote in SW.
GEJ off course ave not performed to par but dat will not stop him.
1. Ekiti: mark my words, PDP will win massively. Ekiti people are known to keep grudges and they will never forget those names APC called them after voting Fayemi out. APC shot themselves on their leg buy insulting Ekiti people. (ONE STATE Gone)
2. Ondo: ondo state will also vote GEJ. Not because of performance but because APC is dead or non existence in Ondo state. APC for ur information has 3 parallel executives in Ondo state. GEJ might not ave 80%+ but he will ave 60+ in Ondo State. (Two state gone)
3. Osun: to me, Osun is the strongest apc state. Ogbeni will deliver the state to APC but PDP will still pull about 35% of the total vote cast which is tangible.
4. Oyo: if Accord works with PDP, due to Ajimobi poor political experience, GEJ will win massively there. I won't speak more on this but accord is growing strong in Oyo state.
5. Ogun: this state will be a 50:50 for both parties. But I don't see amosun returning.
6. Lagos: with the massive population of Ibos and the religion card played by GEJ, he will pull much votes in Lagos. APC can only HAVE MAJORITY vote IF Fashola is fielded as vice president. But dat won't stop GEJ from having 40%+ in Lagos State.



Bottom line: SW don't vote for performance but personality and motivation by political strategist. Why do u think Aketi won his local govt Owo (political capital of Ondo state) with slim margin. If u like, say amala politics is played, but it will still work out.

Shalom.

If this is what you are banking on to get your so called votes in SW then you are on a long thing, Alao Akala, Bankole, Iyabo Obj and host of PDP candidates that lost the 2011 gubernatorial and senatorial election were all voted out and PDP rendered useless by the people of SW for non performance.

In addition to the normal criminality that goes on in society, a lot of our brothers and sisters have taken up arms against us because we do not share the same religious beliefs.

Yorubas are facing tough times.
But we know that tough times do not last.
Tough people do.

We even survived Afonja's betrayal.

Our heroes and heroines like Moremi show us the way to outlast our adversaries.

Tough times do not last.
We are gradually building our lives without interference of outsiders.
We are cultivating our farms in peace and building silos to store the harvest.
We do not have to escape to London like Ogundipe and Afikuyomi.

We are here gradually building our homes.
It would be folly for us to invite a fox
Who would drive us like a hen from our nest.
We are tough people,
We have seen tough times and know what it looks like.
and we prefer peace and tranquility.
