What is the primary aim of a political party if not to win office

Obiagelli:

Election is close, all these "i am neutral" people will start to showing their true colours.

omenka:
I keep laughing when people say APC is desperate for power. What exactly do they really mean?? Is there any political party that could survive and stay relevant without power?? If PDP/Jonathan aren't desperate, let them quit and vacate the current offices they occupy and hand them over to the opposition, or is there a better way of proving one's non-desperation??

patrickmuf:
Truth of the matter is nobody is neutral... You either support mediocrity or own up to the change that is imminent...

Obiagelli:

As if your vote counts more than one

drnoel:


Urs too counts just one so go and sit down or better. Go to the kitchen and cook something. Little girl, allow ur elders to talk.

Obiagelli:

Elder drnoel i hail thee. Learn to use I not WE next time

drnoel:


Nice return from u. Am surprised u didn't go into insults like it's usual in NL. Madam, keep it up. U will go places Cheers.

harde2lah:

Use your sense boy and stop reasoning with your dick

Obinoscopy:
You see. This comment of yours exposes your desperation as an APC politician hoping to grab power by hook or by crook. Why resorting to insults when responding to my comments? It's comments such as yours that will make Nigerians wary of the opposition.

Obinoscopy:
It's obvious these guys are not after our wellbeing. They are just hell bent on taking over power. Every statement of theirs has to do with ousting the present government. They should be careful lest Nigerians would sense their desperation. I detest desperate politicians.

Thus far, I would say Atiku has been the most matured opposition politician I've observed. His twitter statement concerning the ceasefire deal/chibok girls negotiation is very matured. I hope his party alongside his fellow aspirants would tow his line

omenka:
Abegi, comot make we see road joor.

What is wrong in telling a people to be wary of the utterances of a government with a knack for failure??

What is wrong in telling a people to be wary of a government that denies contemplating an increase in the pump price of gasoline only to wake up to over 100% increase the next day as a new year's gift??

What is wrong in telling us to b e cautious about a government who told us the problem of inadequate electricity would be a thing of the past a year after its inauguration whereas we are still struggling with thesame issue??

What is wrong in telling a people not to trust in totality a government that said it would end insurgency in June of 2013 only for us to be grappling with the same problem to this day??

Is anything wrong in telling a people to be wary of a government that announced that all girls had been released (twice) only to come back and tell us the statement was made in error??

What exactly is wrong with that I ask

Even without being told, I am ALWAYS wary of whatever this satanic government does or says. I like positive news but don't give them any bear hugs when they come from Jonathan's admin. It is called cautious optimism.

Your comment is an insult to our collective intelligence as a people and to yourself as an individual(that is if you have little sanity left in you)
You are sorry for what? Bros abeg stop trying to please these guys, because you just can't please them

Obinoscopy:
There's nothing wrong with being cautious. Do you think I believe everything the government says? No. I use my thinking faculty while assimilating whatever the government says.

My annoyance with the APC in their ceasefire press statement is that they were talking about ousting the present government. The topic of discuss was concerning the ceasefire and the chibok girls and all they (APC) are concerned about is the ousting of the present government and their concern about PDP's politicisation of the ceasefire.

Thank God that our Military is disciplined and mature, it's this kind of bitter opposition from the APC that can lead to a Military Coup.

harde2lah:

Yeah, you're right but people's opinion have to be respected no matter how dumb they may appear to be. There is beauty in diversity.

omenka:
The insecurity occasioned by the incompetence and corruption of this government doesn't warrant a coup, but a statement by the opposition highlighting the obvious does huh?? I'm really shocked at your mode of thinking.

barcanista:
You PDP apologists Seem to have this love for Atiku Abubakar, why not make him PDP's candidate or running-mate to Jonathan?

PDP Apologist? Hmmm, I love that name .

Atiku is a politician who is a known crook. To me, he's not to be trusted. However, that doesn't mean I shouldn't praise him if he's currently acting like a matured politician and democrat.

Of all the aspirants in the opposition, he's the most democratic at the moment. Did you read his twitter reaction to the ceasefire agreement? He was very cautious about the agreement but he went on to say whatever development that will ensure the release of the chibok girls is a welcomed development. Did you read his comment after he went to visit Obasanjo's son who was shot during the battle? If you are truly a Nigeria you'll love those comments.

Perhaps Buhari should consult Atiku for his political sagacity. Buhari's lies concerning the PDP government during his declaration exposed his desperation. It is common knowledge that power generation was epileptic and less than 2000MW even before 1999 so why lie about it?

Buhari should have admitted that there was an increase in electricity generation from 1999 till date. We all knew there was an increase, so no need lying about it. However we know that the increase was not good enough. The increase can be likened to one year one block scenario in house building. Thus this means that PDP failed. Buhari needn't lie to prove that PDP failed, but he did! That's desperation!

Obinoscopy:
He was sorry for calling me a dick. He didn't say he was sorry for opposing my views. Please stop being biased here.

barcanista:
ofcourse right. I respect people's opinion but not necessarily agree. He neither agree with nor respects APC's opinion on the ceasefire issue. He's picking holes where non exist.
Let me ask you, what is worth criticizing in APC's Statement? Is it not rather precautionary? Isn't it matured considering what happened 24hrs after the phantom ceasefire announcement? If for anything APC deserves kudos not a vile knock from the Jonathan Apologists.

Obinoscopy:
What is worth criticising in the APC statement is the fact that they are calling for the ousting of the present government in that reaction to ceasefire press statement. Why must everything be about ousting the present government?

What they should have done is simply to encourage precautionary measures be taken and perhaps suggest better ways to tackle this insurgency. We're tired of hearing the word clueless or the call for the ouster of the present government. The fact that you call a government clueless doesn't make it clueless. It's the people that'll decide if they are clueless or not. The fact that you are crying for the ousting of a government won't make it happen. It's we, the non-partisan majority that will decide come February whether the present party should be ousted or not.

It's not about creating and sharing an ideology about how their particular society- country, state, LGA etc should function for the people's benefit
Interesting perspective, innit?
