Show me any PDP Presidential candidate that ever attend any of these organised debates.

This same GEJ ran away from NN24 debate in 2011.....
Then you are telling me because corruption has been in Nigeria, corruption must continue.
You are telling me because flouting of laws and order was in Nigeria yesterday, it must be so today?
What change are you guys yearning for then?
Any sane human being that wants to progress and move forward in life adopts a positive change. If we allow the wrongs of yesterday into today just because it affects us, then Nigeria is stagnant and we will never move forward. You know it deep in your heart and I know understand me very well.

THOSE WHO MATTER DOES NOT MIND; AND THOSE WHO MIND DOES NOT MATTER.

Some people are soo bitter because of this GMB
.
Even if Cambridge issue another result. I believe they'll still be sad alongside with their devil advocates in ethnocentric and their religion bigotry.

Because you've failed in all this; you have failed in all ramifications.

He'll Islamize Nigeria
Is too old
He doesn't know his Gsm no
He'll make country ungovernable
He has Cancer
He dn't know his vice name
He will throw pple to jail
General without certificate
He didn't buy weapons.

We are still counting.
? ? ? ?

In all this : GMB continue to get stronger and more stronger.

Google it and see what it take to be a General.

PDP and those who want a statue quo of monumental embezzlement, Zero on Security,
And all the promise and failed of GEJ.
Will likewise experience in their life the way GEJ is ruling this country. Say AMEN.

NIGERIANS ! FEBUARI ! ! !
Has he he requested cambridge to provide him with the copy of his certificate yet? Why is he afraid of doing so? What is the undertone?

I'm sure Buhari had not been avoiding debates because he is afraid of Jonathan or scared that he might mess up things. He only wanted the organisers of the debate to be a plain field, not a home or away field. he didn't want foul play.
Nobody can organise a plain field debate for him in Nigeria? Even their lovely channels can't? The same way he is the only upright Nigerian without blemish. If he really is then he should know that nobody can rubbish him with anything contrary to what he was or now is except if there is an undertone and if so, he wouldn't be that righteous and very upright as not to have had no regrets or apologies to Nigerians for his years as president and afterwards till this very moment.

GMB should not attend the debate base on security reason. According to Obasanjo's open letter to GEJ(BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE). They have trained snippers to eliminate any strong political opponent. If they cannot adopt tele-conference technology, he should please, never enter their traps. What of if they kill him and claim it is Boko haram attack? Do not attend sir.
grin grin grin Obasonjo now security adviser to APC. Hahahahahahah. What a charade.

I can't really understand why people keep emphasising on a debate as if it's the best way of knowing a good candidate.

In case you can no longer find your
History
books, Obafemi Awolowo, the Great Zik,
Aminu
Kano et al boycotted the 1979
presidential
debate, and we all know that they are certainly among the best politician of their time.

Jonathan refused to attend presidential debate organised in 2011 and yet he was voted in as our president because nobody make a big deal out of it. It's now funny and irritating seeing the way people are condemning Buhari for turning down a mere debate when our incumbent president also did the same.

Yar adua and Obasanjo never attended any debate during their campaign with the later absent in debating hall on two occasions and still never loosed the elections.

Before you will start throwing punch at men, you will have to understand the fact that I'm not a political party fanatic I'm just a mere citizen that belive in giving another party a chance before we can know a failure.

It will be harsh on PDP if we call them a failure when we are yet to give another party a run.

we're in 2015 and ur talkin of d past. So wherein lies d change of which APC speaks

Nigerians deserve better. Buhari is not fit to be our president. If not for bullet, Buhari would never have been the president of this great country. We're no longer in the era of bullets. We're in the era of brains.

We need positive change not a retrogressive change.

Meanwhile, I'm hereby calling on Buhari to get his certificate ready as it will be requested for by the Courts. He should also get ready to be convicted for Perjury.

If Mr. Integrity cannot proove his integrity by showing his certificate. Why should we believe any other thing he's saying, knowing that those behind him are not corruption free. The fact is APC and PDP are the same people. If GEJ defects to APC today he will also become a saint. That's APC for you.

You give him too much credit! What high horse? This is someone that has not done ONE thing to improve himself since he left the reins of power. It's more of not having the ability to be coherent and articulate which unfortunately comes with age.For some,it sets in earlier than others.why he just won't own up to this is baffling.The longer his handlers shield him from these debates,the more interested people get in finding out what he has to hide.

It beats my imagination how some people will refer to a solid foundation as useless. Have we no conscience any more? If you are bidding for a contract, don't you submit your quotation to convince your employer so he will know you have an idea of what you will do when given the contract? This is the same back door syndrome we are talking about. This is the same reason why he doesn't have a certificate. Which developed nation in the world go into presidential election without a debate? Some Nigerians reason below an average human being. So is USA a primary school? Don't they debate? If yhis is the kind of change you guys are yearning for then it's obvious it's a backward change. What a shame! Someone wants to rule a country and he can't even engage his opponents in a simple debate. So when he becomes the president, how will he engage the several checks and balance and critics of his "gowment"?

Bull's eye!!! Right on point sir!

Would debating stop corruption?

I will prefer candidates going out there on one on one and giving out time-lines...thresholds and watermarks of what they intend to deliver to those electorates.

I will never accept that debate is the only means to sell yourself to voters......please I'm tired of people quoting me and saying the same thing.

A debate is already too late 90% if not 95% of those who want to vote have already made up their mind, the essence of a debate is to espouse the undecided, why debate 10 days to election let me guess to embarrass one or both candidates? Let's face it both men are likely going to goof if they debate I believe GEJ will do worse because he doesn't choose his words wisely (any intelligent person will pick stones in his words, the campaigns and media chats responses are examples) and his team do not help him develop that weakness it gets worse the longer he has to speak. GBM hasn't spoken long enough for his weakness to be properly identified but I think from the 2011 debate I can say his strategy is say as little as possible to trash out the questions.

I was an undecided initially but thanks to the media I've made my choice same goes for most undecided electorates.

Though I don't mind seeing GEJ and GMB go head to head but APC have clearly said Buhari is not participating in any debate. We don't really need to accord PDP/GEJ any dignity since they lack it themselves.

how many people can you reach through town hall meetings? Just a few persons... If PDP lacks diginity why not show up in the debate and finaly shut their coffin... Then bury them finally on FailBuhari 14th...

All the presidential candidates picked up the form to run for this election and after their form have been honoured,i think another thing that will determine who has our vote is the public debate because nobody gets employ without being interviewed, lets interview them and know what they are up to and I think whoever miss the debate should be disqualify immediately.

You can reach more people and even attend to more important questions through town hall meetings than only one TV debate. They have been having town hall meetings across the country and answer varied questions. To APC, this is more important than the debate because they know that GMB is clearly in the lead. PDP?GEJ need the debate more than them, so why helping them at all!

When PDP were sure of winning in 2011, they boycotted a well publicized debate. Same thing they did in 2003 and 2007.

Talk of revenge served hot here.
