You don't gamble with the existence of a nation. We need leaders that can prove to be better irrespective of party, religion or ethnicity. Buhari had several opportunities to prove himself, but he chose a path of sectionalism and favoritism over the common good of the nation.

FASHOLA is in APC, he should have been presented because he would have been the most worthy aspirant. The fact that he is Yoruba and a Muslim does not matter. Buhari should have thrown his weight behind him instead of presenting himself.

U don't present someone who hasn't shown interest.
Did Fashola pick up the form and was denied the opportunity to run? Rochas showed interest and tried his luck.

As of now, all Buhari supporters belong to the same family of interest groups, so lets put our personal grievances aside and spend our energy on defeating PDP.

Afam nwanne m, nothing do you. You are most welcomed into the fold. Its time to think outside the box and take the risk.

I don't know your age but may I remind you that School Principals and public servants were meant to leap frog and be flogged for coming late to school or work instead of the disciplinary measures contained in civil service code of conduct.

If you are waiting for a cab, you are meant to queue on line and any attempt to change your mind and leave for another alternative will be punished with koboko or severe corporal punishments.

Come to the market and see wahala where Buhari's boys in uniform are parading to know how much a petty trader sold a commodity to determine if it was a fair price or not.

Bros, I need to write my own book "On my Watch" to tell the stories as it happened in Aba for the younger generation to have a glimpse of how we were governed then and to know that there wasn't any difference between Buhari's regime and ISIL in Iraq.

Are you saying saying Buhari will start flogging Nigerians when he becomes a democratically elected president of Nigeria? (I think some of you deserve some floggings).
More people have died in GEJ's administration than other countries with natural disasters.

For one, stop lying to yourself. You NEVER voted for Buhari in 2011. Most of us still remember your antecedents on this forum during the 2011 elections.

Take a look at his Original post and you will read hypocrisy and someone trying to play to the gallery while playing the script of the thieving pdp. I was turned off when he said that Jonathan hasn't been the worst but "on par" with h past leaders. That is so typical of covert Jonathanians. Also, he endorsing the comment of that bigoted and ignorant poster validated mmy position. They hide under the cloak of bring Fashola and...bla bla bla, but their real message is "bring a weak candidate". From endorsing Atiku to playing to "Fashola" these Jonathanians have always been afraid of Muhammadu Buhari. They are hypocrites

That is called War Against Indiscipline and it is a very welcome development for Nigerians. In Lagos today, you queue to board BRT buses and even in some parks, whether the buses are available or not. It is safer, patriotic and civil. Whoever take advantage of consumers should be punished and not rewarded whether rich or poor. Civil servants or officials ought be punctual. Even in our schools, late coming students are punished. You have shown that you love lawlessness.

But Fashola is one of the pushers of Buhari. People need to know that in politics, one plus one is often greater than two.
Fashola does not have a national fellowship yet, neither does Amaechi, Kwakwanso, Rochas or any of the young Turks for that matter as proven on the convention day. Some people need to curb the irrational fear of Buhari.
There is nothing to fear about this man, he is a UK trained military officer who has been state governor, minister of petroleum and head of State. He has gravitas and depth and would bring respect to the country from the international community.

I also agree with you and that is why i said that APC is no different from PDP. They know a Fashola is a better candidate but chose chose to sacrifice that on the alter of winning an election. the truth is that they're banking on Buhari's popularity. Fashola on the other hand can't win them a local government yet alone Nigeria. That's the unfortunate truth.

I don't agree with you on reasons apc refuse to give fash a chance, they simply just want to return power to the north, its visible to all, though I don't have a problem with that as a president can come from anywhere, why must it be a buhari.

Yes, I agree no politician in this present day Nigeria have the kind of followers and command respect like buhari, but then we need to consider a lot of things, remember sheik gumi, who advise both jonathan and buhari to forget presidency, the man was right?

Jonathan can't solve the BH problem. This is a known fact, only a northerner most likely buhari can do this.

again, should buhari win, expect Niger Delta militants back in the creek, expect the SE to start singing biafra. I think this should be american calculations for saying Nigeria won't exist beyond 2015.

Why I can't support buhari, he may have all the integrity and followers, but he is not the best man for the job, he is old, and with the last interview and address in apc convention, you can see the man is clueless just like Jonathan.

If buhari is a true patriot and have the interest of the country, then I see no reason he can't support a younger candidate after attempting three good times, there are lots of alternatives buhari can sacrifice his ambition for.

If buhari anoint a candidate, support the candidate, campaign with him in all 36 state of the federation, I see no reason the same buhari followers can't vote such a candidate.

Not everyone is stupid as rochas my man. Fash is a wise man knowing the party already agree on zoning the ticket to the north, y'all can deny this, but its the truth. It was not open to all. I have a feeling rochas purchasing the ticket was a game plan by the party itself to make it seems the ticket was open to all.

Q: Can We Give Buhari A Try?

A: YES.

And unlike the blind support for Jonathan, I will like Ndigbo to articulate policies and programmes we want and table it to Buhari and the APC. And after considerations and deliberations, Ndigbo can sign a Policy agenda they expect from Buhari's Administration. So that once Buhari becomes President, those well-spelt out programmes can be included in government programmes for a greater Nigeria.

I also think every region of the federation should do this. You can take Buhari's word to anywhere (he will boldly tell you what he can do and the ones he will not do during deliberations).

I like your comment. It has concerns. No leader can know it all. Trust me Buhari doesn't know how he would stir the economy but notwithstanding we need a leader who is firm, who will not tolerate the nonsense we are currently seeing. A leader that would send a message to the rest of the world that Africas most populous country means business.

Jonathan is not a bad man but his presidency serves the purpose of a collective few and that is not what we want anymore.
