Ngwakwe: your write up is an exaggeration and you know it. moreover, need anyone remind you this is a democracy? Also, you lie greatly comparing his regime to ISIL. for your info, he crushed a maitatsine rebellion in kano. Also David Mark as minister of communications said telephones are not for the poor but since he's with your man, l'm sure your sense of history will never go that far. you have a right to hate Buhari but you don't have to lie in a bid to demonize him 2 Likes |

OP, this is not a rocket science, the choice we have to make make is as clear as daylight for those who are sincere at heart and not sentimental, let me use the words of my governor: “…if we are unhappy with what we have, the logical thing to do is to attempt to change it with our votes and to change the next one too if we do not find what we want until we find what we all want. That is when the people would truly have attained power” – Babatunde Fashola No one with the right conscience can claim this administration is anywhere near fair, I mean Nigerians deserve better. What is the legacy of this administration? To bluntly put it, Jonathan administration will only be remembered for the level of corruption it bred. We know many collected billions for petrol they never supply, who was jailed? Nobody. Pension scam; who was jailed? Nobody. Employment scam, nobody. Till date we are yet to see the result of audited account of NNPC to find the missing $20 Billion. Lets not even start to talk about insecurity, and let no one tell me that some people or a region made the country ungovernable for Jonathan, it only proves he is weak and clueless if despite the enormous power he commands he can not deal with them. So the most sensible thing to do is to try another hand and another party on the job, if the new hand fails or unable to meet our expectation then we vote him out again and try another hand till we get it. That is the way it is done in advanced democracy all over the world. But there is no bigger madness than to keep trying the same thing and expect a different result. 5 Likes 1 Share |

I gave a personal account of Buhari's regime as implemented in Aba Metropolitan city and someone says I exaggerated. Exaggerated? How and Why? It is only a person comfortable with living under Sharia Law that won't see anything wrong with such abuse of human right using applied Sharia Judicial system. 2 Likes |

Buhari has zero experience in democratic governance and hence not compatible with democracy. Do Nigerians need regime change with aggrieved and out of favour PDP politicians? Definitely No. Buhari should forget about whatever he left in presidential palace and do something meaningful with his life having refused to serve in a lesser capacity. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Ngwakwe: you're an adult and know what obtains in a democracy and the processes involved in passing a bill into law or amending the constitution. can you tell us how on earth you think Buhari will be able to make sharia law applicable to someone living in aba? |

barcanista: You see why knowledgeable people call General Muhammadu Buhari clueless? How can you FLOG your fellow citizens, adults for that matter, to discipline them instead of EDUCATING & ENCOURAGING/MOTIVATING the people by providing needed services/infrastructure/utilities Further evidence that the old soldier has no solution to provide for the myriad of problems confronting our nation beyond his programmed response of corruption That much was apparent in his lack lustre Channels TV interview despite all the packaging & coaching |

theV0ice: But the peoples General has no experience on how democracy works. If he had served in a lesser capacity like say, a Minister, head of federal agency or State Governor under a democratic governance then we would be in better position to appraise him. Don't forget he gave Abacha a ridiculous condition (that he be given absolute independence without oversight) before he accepted to head PTDF. Things have changed and we need tested leaders having outgrown "on the job trainee" President. 3 Likes |

Buhari has no business in politics. And APC has no agenda for southeast, same with PDP. They're all the same, camouflaged regional parties with secret plan for selected regions, claiming to be National. So tell me why I should sweat for them in the name of campaign or vote. |

Ngwakwe: we all weren't born holding a book on the rule of law. we all learn. GEJ has never worn khaki before (except on ceremonial occasions) yet he has kept Arunma Oteh operating SEC despite zero appropriation from the NASS among other illegalities like 7>19, 16>19, 5>26 etc. Buhari has no choice but to bend to democratic norms Despite him giving Abacha that condition, OBJ the witch-hunter couldn't find any thing to nail him with. methinks his insistence on total independence helped him stay untainted. Jonathan has been training as a leader since 1999 (deputy gov) yet he still confesses he can't tame corrupt officials, catch boko sympathizers in his govt nor go after BH totally. my bro, the man has shown he can't do it. why punish him further with another 4 years? |

Ngwakwe: According to history, the same north slaughtered tens of thousands of ibo people, but today, they are still the largest immigrants in the same North. So, are you trying to repeat what happened to your forefathers decades ago? Buhari commanded the arrest and indefinite detention of pro democracy groups who dare talk about Nigeria's political future as far as he (Buhari) was still on the throne GEJ violently suppressed subsidy fuel demonstrations and slaughtered 12 subsidy fuel protesters GEJ is yet to account for our hundreds of missing school children GEJ is yet to account for the dead unemployed youths he even scammed for bogus employement Your vote is your power, together we will put to a stop Buhari's attempt to benefit from the institution he destroyed Actually, GEJ destroyed our institutions from top to bottom. The police is grossly, lawless, grossly incompetent, grossly corrupt and politically compromised. They don't even respect the other arms of government. the Nigerian police today is a lawless organization. The SSS is a worthless political organization with zero capacity to defend and protect Nigerians. Their main responsibility and obligation is ti fight the opposition and engage in political battles instead of Boko Haram. Weeks after raiding the APC's DATA office, they still can not tell Nigerians what crime was committed and what criminal evidence they obtained to justify their lawless and illegal actions. The Nigerian military under jonathan is a toothless, poorly equipped and badly demoralized organization. Under Jonathan, we've lost potions of Nigeria to terrorists. We gave him a full country, but we are getting back a fractured and incomplete Nigerian territory. You are entitled to your tribal and bigoted opinion, but definitely not to your own facts and Nigerian history.. 4 Likes |

anonimi: i think same reason nigerians brag with a visit to UAE despite it being governed by sharia law. Nigerians were plenty in egypt under dictator Mubarak north korea is poverty infested my friend.....thats why you and i will not go there even if we are bribed to. Buhari was a dictator but so was David Mark (he said infamously that "telephones are not for the poor" ) in his ministerial assignments, so was Bode George as gov, so was Ahmadu Alli (a campaign chief for GEJ now) yet you see nothing wrong with them |

This is a democracy. You don't beg to rule. You don't harass to rule and you don't intimidate to rule. It is corruption to unfairly take votes without actually earning them in a fair and free election. How can anybody in his right senses cajole anyone else to favour a particular candidate that is well known to be a disguised wolf in a sheep's skin? We have said it many times GMB is a wolf, unrepentant bully and a dictator anyday anytime. He is a Predatory politician hiding his claws and waiting for victims. Make one mistake to give him a day at the Presidency, not even the Legislature would try him. Our Tinubu who brought the soldier here is now afraid to select a VP for him. We don talk tire. If you won eat GMB go eat am. As for me and my people we dont want. His meat will be too tough to smoke gari! |
