You can now see that Nigeria can.never move forward.
Imagine an elder statesman saying.
Fact is,if the xtian_Xian ticket or Muslim_Muslim ticket can deliver Nigeria to the promised land,isn't that better?

At the surface, it sounds as a good advice but technically, it will not bring the best result that a Buhari-Fashola ticket would have brought.

Not only will christians vote for that ticket, pastors will rush to vote for it, I am sure of that,going by the antecedents and track records of the duo.

If APC presents an angel, Igbo will not vote for the angel because they did not vote for Ojukwu in 2003, they voted for their perennial enemy because of money - Obasanjo who conquered Biafra.

Buhari used Chuba Okadigbo as running mate, they did not vote for them. It then means APC should forget them.

APC should focus on its area of strength-North, South West, Rivers and 25% of other states.

This would be the costliest mistake of the APC and I sincerely hope that they will not fall for that tempation. I say this because of the need to entrench peace in our polity. Many people will just die after the loss of 2015.

Is Baba now apc member?
No he's a passionate Nigerian who desires to see the country pulled back from the brink of socio-economic catastrophe occasioned by Jonathan's misrule, a task that can be executed by no other party but APC. The rot is just too much and the system can hardly accommodate more shockwaves.

Oil prices are about to hit rock bottom (watched on CNN yesterday where some analyst were predicting $70 per barrel) yet Jonathan and the Gang keep looting with reckless abandon!!

There needs to be a complete turn around in governance and Buhari no doubt is the man for the Job!!

Now that we have Christian and Muslim as President and VP, what effect has it had on the country?

Forget Religion and vote for COMPETENCE!

Unfortunately we prefer mediocrity to meritocracy in Nigeria of today.

OBJ is not a man of integrity. He talks with both sides of his mouth. He was the president for 8years yet he didn't do anything about power. He and his VP were just jumping from one scandal to the other fighting each other. He wanted a third term but failed. He deregulated our economy by selling most of Nigeria's properties to his friends and family members. But now Nigerians venerate and worship him, in fact, una memory na 1megabyte.

Religion is a sensitive issue in Nigeria so a it will be difficult to win election with muslim muslim ticket and this is not a Nigerian thing only for example fielding a black black ticket would be difficult in US or a woman woman ticket.

APC should know better, If they really want to win the election, they should field a Muslim / Christian candidates or vice versa; that's the norm in a multi ethnic country like Nigeria. let the better candidate win, God bless the FRN!

This is a former president who failed to deliver even his own ward
during the last general elections. The only way Obasanjo can affect
anyone politically is if it's to the detriment of that person. He can't
make any positive impact on any candidate. His irrelevance became
palpable when Ogun PDP resolved its internal crisis sans Obasanjo.

Re: Former President Olusegun Obasanjo Cautions APC About Muslim-muslim Ticket by Muscomide: 7:18am On Oct 27, 2014
Obasanjo may be a sage but he does not have sole repository of wisdom. If true, I am very disappointed in his intervention. Regrettably, we seem to have allowed religion to creep into our politics and public life. Ethnicity and religion should not be a yardstick for determining the most qualified appointee but performance and content of character. I am Christian but I really do not give a damn whether public officer is Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, Ijaw, Efik, Edo, etc, gay, straight, bisexual, Christian, Muslim, animist, traditional worshipper, etc, etc. OBJ does not always know it all. APC sacrificing their best candidate at the altar of religion is akin to Argentina not playing with Messi because of his faith or Brazil not selecting Neymar because he is Catholic/Christian, or may be even Portugal not fielding a fit Ronaldo.
Only an unpatriotic Nigerian will deny that a Buhari/Fashola candidature will be formidable. Obasanjo is just a hypocrite. Did being Christian prevent him from being corrupt whilst in power? Is it Christian to have sex with one's daughter-in-law as Obasanjo has been alleged to have done? When Abacha/IBB stashed millions of dollars in foreign banks, is that what the Koran teaches?
OBJ should not pull the wool over our eyes, abeg!

You are a typical example of why religion is so important in Nigeria. Instead of saying let the best man win you are putting it in the hands of God. Will God vote on that day? My signature says it all.

I don't mind if such arrangement is made. North insisted that power shld return to d south in1999. Why re they finding it difficult to do d same now. One gud thing deserves another. A born to rule is the one that opposes to zoning arrangement.

Thats the problem with Nigerians..You deserve the type of leaders you get.

Just because OBJ refused to rig his ward election, you are calling him names.

You should even give him credits for that. You are here ranting rubbish...Nigeria will never go forward with people like you.

Acidosis:
I made this statement few days back in response to a nairalander who said religion is not important in electoral matters


"Religion is important, that's the point. If people could change political parties like "undies", why can't they do same with religion?

An Ibo man will never become the governor of Oyo state; it is not bigotry; but a fact. Nigerians will never accept a muslim-muslim or a Christian-Christian or a Hausa-Hausa or a Yoruba-Yoruba president/vice-president.

You can't tell me that a muslim-muslim combination like Buhari-Fashola is the best a country of 160million people can deliver?

Where are the over 80million Christians? Is Fashola better than All?

Fashola is Fashola because he has access to a state like Lagos with so many multinationals, productive people and of course, large resources. The fact that other governors in states like Ekiti, Jigawa, Kwara, Ogun, Katsina aren't making headlines in Lagos based TV channels do not signify failure in other states. We need to get these facts right.

There is little Fashola can do in Aso rock." Nigeria nor be Lagos; Aso rock nor be Alausa.

Cheap talk.. And trying to defend mediocrity! However, I agree with your religious points, you were right there.
