is this Obiagelli or Berem?

Kx:
Expect more of this nonsense journalism from the colonial masters.

UK knows that once Buhari gets there, a lot of the things that drive UK economy from Nigeria and the third world will be a thing of the past and their economy will suffer.

Eg. Nigerians rush for UK education and the massive impact on the economy;
Nigerians rush for UK estates/properties.
Nigerians rush for UK shopping and so on and so forth.

And all thise nonsense they say about GEJ being a christian, does the bible he reads advocates corruption and lack of seriousness in leadership?

kalamayat:

You just gave one of the reasons why GMB can never win a presidential election in nigeria.

I want to also add that a dictator that truncated a democratically elected government over 30 years can hardly be the positive change in a country of over 170 million people.

Nebuchadnezar:

Buhari is a terrorist

motherlode:


is this sarcasm or what

Acidosis:
I would rather die than give my vote to Buhari.
An ethno-political bigot at 71 should be busy constructing his casket.

Be careful what you wish for.

You have made a judgment on Mr Buhari based on a single 8 minute speech, non? The problem Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has is that he will be judged based on his speeches and his actions over a 6 year period. How will he fare?

I do not know who will win the presidential election next year. What I do know is that my household and I will NOT be voting for Dr Goodluck Jonathan and the party whose platform he will run on. Never have, never will. But I WILL vote. Just as I always have. As long as there is life and health in me, I will cast that ballot come February 14 next year.

What you do not understand is that the next election is a referendum on the performance of Dr Jonathan and the party he is representing. Buhari is not on trial here. Jonathan is. Buhari isn't the one who has to present a report card to Nigerians. Jonathan is.

As I said earlier, I have no way of knowing who will win the next election. That is up to Nigerians to decide. What is clear is that the 2014 election is a test of the ability of Nigerians to hold their leaders accountable. It is a test of their understanding of the Social Contract. Nigerians have had several presidents over the last 15 years running under the platform of the ruling party. Yet their country's infrastructure remains very poor. Incomes are low and over half the population lives below the poverty line. Hope and time are fast ebbing away for an entire generation that thought it would rise above the failures of its predecessors. And worst of all, the leadership of the current administration (like all the other PDP governments before it) remains morally deficient and thoroughly compromised. The "I don't give a damn" and "stealing is not corruption" comments are still ringing in my ears as I type this - in serious countries, such statements by a sitting president would have brought down the government in a matter of days. Nigerians however, stood idly by. Or did they? Will they take their revenge next February?

It is up to Nigerians to decide how they wish to live. To those young people on here who desperately want jobs and livelihoods and yet proudly announce that they will not be voting next year, I ask you: has Abba Moro or the Ministry of Internal Affairs refunded the money collected for the immigration recruitment exercise that cost so many young and not so young lives? Has somebody paid for the criminal negligence that led to so many deaths in that stadium?

Nigeria - your future is in your hands.

Analysis: Will Ross, BBC News, Lagos

The former military ruler has been out of power for close to 30 years and although popular, especially in northern Nigeria, there is little evidence to prove he has what it takes to fix the country.

philips70:


A dangerous bigoted YOUTH like you will NEVER rise to any position of power in any capacity anywhere you find yourself either. It is not a curse, it is evident in your conduct on Nairaland.

motherlode:

mtcheew, it would seem like a surprise to you after the announcement that Buhari had been elected come 2015.



you have been brainwashed or maybe you were paid to say that remember to collect the money but don't go against that angel waiting to deliver his message of blessings to we Nigerians !

X2X:


Very interesting.

Is it the same BBC reporters and analysts that told us Libya would be better off if the "evil Gaddaffi" was removed? The same BBC analysts and reporters that told us Iraq had weapons of mass destruction?

How would Buhari have what it takes to fix the country when the deceitful BBC+PDP propaganda machine is rolling full steam and we have fellow citizens who have either chosen or have been misled to reject reason and common sense and instead embrace sentiments like religion and ethnicity?

The thievery, incompetence and ineptitude of the PDP has to end. This is our chance. Lets take it. Vote for CHANGE. I yield.

motherlode:
America and U.K are afraid that this man won't heed to their advice because their advices are detrimental to the economic health and wealth of Nigeria.
Let's protect our motherland from their claws!!!

Geehan:

When I watched the way Buhari delivered the speech it's obviously not encouraging. It was flat all through, no pitches, no enthusiasm....there was no life in that speech.


He needs good preping on how to use his voice. Either Buhari is good or bad am not Voting for Jonathan, can't make same mistake twice.

LastProphet:


There is actually no need answering many of these premature conclusions but i feel your's can be answered since you appear objective sort of, now see the first thing is how old were u when buhari ruled? If you were old enough u would recall that he has no time for words, no time for praises either. At a point people forgot buhari and only talked about idiagbon as he was more vocal though no less active. But i can tell you that the less than 3yrs of his rule touched every single nigerian. more importantly it was a govt THAT NEVER TOLD LIES TO NIGERIANS EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD THE GUN. and i challenge u and anyone reading now to tell us how he got overthrown, he practically walked away when he heard IBB had mobilized and he asked every single security detail NOT TO FIGHT AND DIE FOR HIM. Dodan barracks gate was open when IBB troops marched in, pls go and find out if that is the norm even when a total weakling is inside dodan barracks, yet this man valued the life of others above stay in power. And lastly his performance at PTF is disarming. Let any contractor come here now to tell us whether procurement was transparent or not. Do you know how much money was in ptf? Yet this man did not tuck away any for himself, why donyou think pdp prefer to label him fanatic? Because no other name will stick. Hope you are aware the late Dora came out of PTF? Those were the kind of people working with him. See forget whatever pdp is paying lapthugs to bring up, this man is the next president. I am a christian and fanatically against many islamic practices (check my past posts) but am going to vote buhari. He has no oratory skills obviously but he will get the job done 101%. We once voted an orator and we lived to see him turn a clueless drunkard

I'm attracted to beautiful ladies who got political orientation. Cheers.

Metrofox:
and there's also little evidence the BBC & UK have Nigeria's progress at heart..

birdman:


are you minding them? all of a sudden his speech isnt good enough. As if GEJ is an orator

Geehan:
Thanks for the compliment.

temitemi1:
I wonder what he's looking for,mayb his lost front tooth is in Aso Rock. GEJ till 2019!!

acenazt:
They see A Man with The Ghadafi ideal. They see a man with his Nation's interest at heart. Kai in fact May Fire gut out BBC's head office for this nonsense.

DonaldGenes:
An insane Nigerian Will agree with this hogwash written by BBC....

Both candidates are capable but one is more capable than the other which is Buhari, his body.language alone will make anyone not to steal... I carefully read his speech /body language...

tuke:

You tried but the part that amused me is "BODY LANGUAGE". Plss what is "BODY LANGUAGE"? cos' i think my babe has a better body language to rule this nation.
Have we become so clueless that we lack words to express mere sentiments. God help us!

mikeansy:


Is'nt it the case that the reason you are having to speculate on his body language is because Buhari is not saying much about how he plans to fix Nigeria which I guess is the point of the topic of this thread?
