The Nigeria Elections Debate
Group (NEDG) on Monday in
Abuja said the 2015
presidential debates would
hold between Jan. 28 and
Feb 5.
The Chairman of the Board
of Trustees of NEDG, Mr Sola
Omole, disclosed this to
newsmen after a meeting
of the board, hosted by the
former Chairman of Daar
Communications Plc, Chief
Raymond Dokpesi.
Omole said that the
Directors-General of the
Presidential Campaign
Organisations of the 14
participating political
parties would open the
floor on Jan. 28.
This, according to him, will
be followed by the Vice-
Presidential debates, billed
for Jan. 29.
He said the debates
involving the presidential
candidates would hold in
two sessions and would
climax on Feb. 5.
Omole said that the group
had contacted all the parties
involved, adding that they
all support the idea.
``We believe that debates
are very important
components of the
democratic process aimed
at giving the candidates the
opportunity to speak
directly to Nigerians.
``We want the Nigerian
community to get used to
the business of debating
issues and we feel that this
is a very strong part of
building that culture
``We have met with all the
political parties, those we
couldn’t meet directly, we
contacted their senior
officials and they are very
supportive of the initiative,’’
he said.
The News Agency of Nigeria
(NAN) reports that NEDG is a
coalition of broadcast, civil
society and professional
organisations, committed to
deepening the country's
democracy.
It is also aimed at
entrenching an enduring
democratic culture through
organised television
debates since the return of
democratic rule in 1999.
NEDG has put together the
presidential debates to give
the Nigerian electorate an
opportunity to hear directly
from all the presidential
candidates. (NAN)

Nice

ok

Good one. I hope Jonathan shows up this time.

I can't wait.

Let hear new promises from them.

I know GEJ the wise king solomon, the master planner and the uncommon transformation man will do what he knows how to do best.





GEJ till BUHARI TAKES SLATE BACK TO SCHOOL.

...Even Obama sef want change

you sure say this thing will hold perhaps this will be the first delegation of duties if possible for somebody

The most interesting will be the intellectual battle between osinbajo and samboboribobo

we all know jona will not show up even if he does trust me he'll always end up promising and saying rubbish


GMB is the man!!! certificate don't have anything to do with intelligence and good governance

Sai buhari
Sai Osinbajo
Sai APC
Sai Nigeria

Jonathan feel they are all illiterate.

I can't wait for Buhari to disgrace himself there. Hope he won't forget the name of his running mate again?

He will run again, who bet
... And it's in FeBuhari.
I rep #change....

I hope GEJ will not take off again as he did in 2011?

I dont have faith i the debate, it is the same omole and thief dokpesi who are outrightly been bought over by pdp

Buhari and Sambo...hehe!!!
Am patiently waiting

while everyone is interested in the SAMBO -PYO & GEJ -GMB face offs, am more interested in the DGs debate, ie ALLI-AMAECHI. promises to be full of fireworks. can't wait

In forethought, many don't expect a good outing for GEJ, however if he does have a good outing, the sore loosers would say Dokpesi gave PDP expo. make I dey siddon look sha.

Qs 1. Gentlemen, kindly introduce yourselfs, by telling us your names, names of running mates and names of your campaign DG.

Qs 2. Gentlemen, could you please recite the 1st sttanza of the national anthem.

Qs 3. Kindly tell us your phone numbers



From this 3 questions who do you think will come last?

i cant wait for Buhari to fumble and Jonathan to keep saying "stealing is not corruption"
lest i forget, the moderators should kindly ask GEJ his definition of corruption while at it
