It is the right thing to do. All over the world the seating President always have the right of first refusal except where the Parliament makes a drammatic change or due to some exigencies like health or resignation. So pls let us start growing as a nation. Congrats to the President and PDP. 1 Like |

AyeeIdris: isn't this one of the major criticism of APC ? Unilaterally selecting a candidate without primaries. This sets a bad precedence. EVen if GEJ is the clear favourite of his party, i prefer they do the primaries still.It's not too late to prove how much you hate him. 2015 General election is just a stone throw... 1 Like |

Alexgeneration: PDP is really setting a bad precedent in this our nascent democracy. In advanced climes, even the best incumbents still go through the process of party primaries. We shouldn't keep doing things the wrong way every time.which advanced certain are you talking about, guess the USA and UK is included right? Have you seen any second term bidder in the US going through primaries, in 2012 Mr Obama never went through primaries and so did Bush and Clinton. So get your facts right before talking. 2 Likes |

Amanwulu1: not same as what apc does. Dis is not one man bullying others to step down. Besides, u're talking about an incumbent president recieving d blessing of his party members. Do u hear anybody complaining as in d case of apc?Guy u're a learner...just wait for the coming implosion in PDP as regards this selfish decision #Lamido #Tambuwal |

Alexgeneration: PDP is really setting a bad precedent in this our nascent democracy. In advanced climes, even the best incumbents still go through the process of party primaries. We shouldn't keep doing things the wrong way every time. Please don't take this the wrong way but you don't know what you're talking, okay? In the US, whose Presidential system of Govt we copy pronto, the aspirants at the first shot at the White house all go through primaries quite alright just like we do here. However after the first term if the occupier of the office of the POTUS wants wants a second term especially if he's done well, his party (be it Democratic or Republican) gives him a right of first refusal. Once he accepts to run, the party immediately adopts him as the sole candidate in the general election and goes on to ratify him at the convention. That's has been the practice in US in their over 200years of democracy. Please get your facts right next time before rushing to foreclose on issues. Obasanjo went to primaries in 2003 because he could not unite his party and even in his then vice, Atiku behind his vision. But a humble and meek Jonathan has. Its a mile stone and I'm proud of him Cc: largeoseni, kasheemawo, AyeeIdris, gnykelly. Read, learn and make necessary adjustments to your submissions. Cheers. 3 Likes |

APC we are waiting for you. please don't make 2015 elections a walkover ooo. You are our only alternative or we are destined for another 4 years of mediocrity. And I say this without any apology, the biggest room in the world is the room for development. I believe GEJ is not the best Nigeria can get. The world is leaving us behind we can't afford to continue on a normal slow path, we need a radical fast change. May God grant APC the wisdom to put sentiment apart and give us a worthy opposition. |

Did the write up specify that it was jonathan who asked them not to do the primaries? “There will be no primary again because we already have a candidate and what we will do is that delegates will just ratify him.” its has noting to do with jona.

But saying he is the best Nigeria will ever have, I see that as a curse, and if you see it as a good wish, may it rest upon you and your family, minus my own share of Nigeria because Nigeria does not belong only to the vision less few. I see a better Nigeria someday, if this is your vision of the best that Nigeria should be at this point in time (with our wealth in comparison to SA/UAE, then I weep for you. Mind you I voted for GEJ in the last election and I will vote for him again if APC brings out a worse candidate than GEJ, but he is not the best we have had (my opinion) nor the best we can have (my prayer for Nigeria) 3 Likes |

funshint: This is my thinking too. The problem is that Nigerian followers are light years behind the machinations of their leaders. Do people think GEJ will simply gain the "endorsement" of the PDP and everyone will go home to work for his 2015 win?This is not 2011 where Dbanj and Nollywood sang and danced for GEJ. GEJ is now a well-known entity. Universally, he is now firmly viewed as a failed leader with nothing to offer Nigerians. He is no longer the "boy with no shoes". GEJ has made his move using the money and influence of the Presidency and others, inevitably, will now be forced to make their move. I personally predicted that GEJ will throw whatever money or patronage towards gaining the PDP ticket. People should not be under any illusions. There are many angry and disgruntled PDP men forced to toe the line. The PDP, overnight, has now gained a lot of 'enemies within' who will have to move beyond apathy to deal with what is now reality. Things from this point on will be interesting. 2 Likes |

Is he afraid to test his much trumpeted popularity in an open primary? Maybe he should emulate Abacha and kickstart the process to have himself adopted by all the parties. |
