You people said the US refused to help you fight BH, and in the same breath you're asking the US to mind its business.


Help yourselves before anyone can help you.

No mind them. They talk from both sides of their mouth.

They refused to help fight Boko Haram. They refused to help us fight Ebola.
Like Ebola, we will defeat the scourge of Boko Haram. That time, they will come & learn how to fight ISIS, Al Qaeda and co.

I nor blame them. I blame Buhari.

If Buhari had not overthrown our democracy in 1983, our democracy would have matured and stabilised by now.

America already face fierce competition with China, Brazil, India & others. They surely don't want another stable and powerful kid on the block like Nigeria, rising in Africa.


I think US wants you to continue with elections even if there is no security! postponment of election are taken as surrunder to Boko haram or giving Boko haram victory! Am trying to understand US secretary statement!

This's the same USA, that will not support our troops in their efforts to contain Boko haram. Crying as loud as they can, about the human rights of boko haram an Islamic terrorist group. Why do they have a soft side for Sunni Militants in Iraq that became ISIS today, for the terrorist groups destroying Libya, for the Islamic brotherhood in Egypt till the Egyptians wised up. They hate the government in Syria so much, but like the anti Syria government jihadist.

If Nigerians are against this postponement PDP will suffer at the polls, but I think Nigerians are okay with the new timeline. Besides security issues, we have PVC issues in some parts of the country. INEC, now has 6 more weeks to get things right. Most people know who they want for President, six weeks is not going to change any vote in this country. The US should worry about their own problems. We actually have it together in Nigeria.
.

Abeg just forget those Yanks matter. Na them sabi.
As for people knowing whom they want to vote for already, you're right on paper.
But with 21,000 out of 30,000 PUs allocated to the North, and hundreds/thousands of PVCs handed to Emirs instead of the rightful individuals PLUS VERY few PVCs distributed in the South, Northern APC rigging was clearly afoot. That plan may now be in danger.

Otherwise, no reason to start raising dust over postponement, not cancellation.
When their son Babangida cancelled the freest and fairest election till then, what did they do?
A bunch of hypocrites.

This is the time for APC to build international alliances, the next 7 weeks will be crucial if they will win.

The body language of international community is obviously that of change. That's glaring.

They can be disappointed, It's not our concern. The security agencies have already spoken, Do you want the elections to hold without adequate security?...Besides, millions of eligible voters could be disenfranchised. They will condemn, As If they will help us when the trouble start brewing.

So your disappointment maybe a blessing to us.
After all, Nigerian terrorism challenge isn't a priority for them...

Na lie my brother.

If they cared so much about election success they should have offered logistic assistance. Their intel are everywhere, including some of our politicians. They clearly knew INECs challenges. US are just stoking the flame of discord. Remember they still have 9ja breaking up in 2015 prediction to actualise.

Suppose election goes ahead and it turns out 15 million people didn't get their PVCs, would that result be fair irrespective of who wins?
In addition, with Chadian, Cameroonian troops & NA working more closely, they are recording some success against Boko. This momentum should be kept.

Imagine US drones locating Boko in Sambisa but they won't tell FG or NA. Don't you wonder which side they are on? Who knows how Boko get intel about NA??

We may have failed in many ways as a country, but we are not that retar.ded not to know when others don't mean well for us.

Americans talking as if they love Nigeria. Because GEJ resisted enthronement of homosexuality in our constitution, they're doing everything to undermine his government (including refusal to buy our oil). Buhari won't agree either if he wins.

US JUST DEY MAKE ME LAUGH.

WHO SAYS WE CARE ABOUT HOW THEY FEEL OR WHAT THEIR REACTION WILL BE.

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE OUR GOVT WE INVOLVED THEMSELVES IN THEIR INTERNAL PROCESS?

WHAT MAKES THEM FEEL THEY HAVE A SAY IN OUR COUNTRY.

U.S ZERORIZED IMPORTATION OF NIGERIAN CRUDE AND INCREASED IMPORTATION FROM VENEZUELA AND SAUDI ARABIA

U.S REFUSED TO SELL TO NIGERIAN MODERN AMOURY THAT WOULD HELP US MATCH THE SOPHISCATED MORDERN WEAPON IN USE BY BH.

U.S WITHDREW FROM TRAINING OUR ARMIES.

U.S STOPPED ISREAL FROM SELLING ARMS TO NIGERIA.

NIGERIANS MUST NOT BE GAY TO GET ANYTHING GOOD FROM U. WE DONT EVEN NEED YOU.

NIGERIA IS NOT A STATE IN US or A COLONY OF THE U.S. WE ACQUIRED INDEPENDENCE SINCE 1960. GET THAT INTO YOUR EMPTY SKULL.

YOUR EFFORTS TO FRISTRATE GEJ WILL BE FURTILE

They should go and die. Who cares about what they think. They refused to sell armaments to us to fight BH and they said Israel should not sell to us. Now we are struggling on our own, rallying neighbourhood efforts and they are there telling us trash. We will survive on our own.

Hav u considered dat maybe d USA wit d kind of resources they hav know something about dis insurgency dat u don't know hence they refused to sell arms to perpetuate d insurgency?. Even d President recognizes d immense capabilities & resources of d USA, hence in an interview on NTA he kept repeating like a broken record - "America Will Know".
Helicopters hav been reportedly seen dropping supplies 4 d insurgents. d late Aziza, former NSA adviser who should know says BH is a PDP affair. He met an untimely death. d voting base of d opposition in d NE continues to be decimated daily while d govt spent all dis time fighting d insurgency wit kid gloves only to resolve to start serious fighting on d election dates. Only d gullible will see dis postponement dat has been actively canvassed by d PDP as a serious attempt to stem insurgency. At a glance, d informed will see dat dis is a desperate act of d ruling PDP to buy time to halt or slow d momentum of d opposition. #WeHaveDecided SAI BUHARI

Nice comment. Most people think the US is Nigeria's friend. The truth is the US is Nigeria's competitor and they'll do everything possible to make Nigeria beneath always.

Whether they like it or not, GEJ or GMB, Nigeria will rise above their propaganda and hate and we'll build a better country that they'll envy
