bushdoc9919:


Well....Oshiomole is also certificate-less.....and he is certainly no illiterate.

And Buhari has his certificate. The Nigerian Army was not taking in certificate-less people in 1961 for officer training.It is folks like you that like to pretend he is an illiterate. If he was...he certainly would never have been given the positions of responsibility he held over the years....and he would not have been intelligent enough to do the looting some of you accuse him of.

We know you do not like Northerners, but your problem really is that you view Abuja as a place to chop money. Real development does not interest you. And the funny thing is that many of Buhari's Northern supporters think that way(which is why thigs won't change if GMB takes over).

You Nigerians are as like as two peas in a pod. That is the really funny part. You all deserve each other.And you all need to grow up(in a nice way...not in an insulting way). You need to grow up to the realisation that development is not about how much kudi you can chop....it is about what you do with the resources you have, and how you use your minds to sort out the problems that you have.

Bros after All thiS your back and forth wetin be Ur point?

The single term thing came about when you proposed a 7yr single tenure and pledged not to run for a second term if Nigerians accept it. The headline on Guardan newspaper clearly showed that[/size]

A big lie, how could a whole President give a blantant lie
Omooba77:
President Goodluck Jonathan on Saturday said that he was quoted out of context in the statement he made on running only a single term.

The president said this when he had an interactive session with Islamic Clerics from South West region at the State House, Marina, Lagos.

“I need to clarifiy this otherwise I do not need to talk about it. This matter continues to come up.”

He said those who have been playing the tape where it was shown that he had pledged to run only a single term had not been sincere.

The President said that what happened was that late President Umaru Yar’Adua came out with political reforms when he, Jonathan was the Vice president.

Jonathan said that he was the chairman of the interparty group of the committee set up by late Yar’adua to agree on the president’s proposal for a single tenure.

He said the statement he made in Addis Ababa was within the context of the proposal.

“I made that statement in Addis Ababa, when I addressed Nigerians. I made that statement after I had won elections.”

He said that he told the audience in Addis that that recommendation would move the country forward.

“I was advising Nigerians in Addis Ababa and I made mention of this issue of seven years of single tenure as being the best for the country.”

“I now added that if Nigerians will agree to run a single tenure of seven years I will not contest. That was the statement I made.”

He said that he still believed in that recommendation in order to prevent the waste of resources during re-election bids of incumbents.

Jonathan said the section of the broadcast which featured former president Obasanjo took place in 2011 during the PDP presidential primary.

He said that he did not want to join issues with Obasanjo because the party members were there for primaries and “I just wanted to win my primaries”.

He reaffirmed his earlier stand that if Nigerians accept his proposal of a single term of seven years, he would not re-contest.

“Those who are advertising on television that I said I was not going to contest a second tenure should play the whole tape.”

Jonathan said people were diminishing the office of the president because of politics.

He further said that even with the past campaign for the 2015 polls almost concluded, if Nigerians would accept that single tenure of seven years, he would not bother to contest the election.

He thanked the clerics for giving him the opportunity to clarify the statement and urged them to continue to pray for the unity and prosperity of the country,

Earlier the Chief Imam of Oriwu Central Mosque, Ikorodu,Llagos, Sheikh Oshoala Ajagbemokeferi, had urged the president to carry every Nigerian along in his administration.

The Imam pledged support for the programmes of the administration and urged the government to conduct a free, fair election to win the favour of God.

The gods could not have been more cruel even if they tried to be. How we ended up with a man who has been an utter mediocre at every turn in his life as president at such a critical juncture of of our nationhood, is a decapitating blow by the gods.

What is the implication of this? GEJ is already contesting and we have moved on...his party has named him their presidential candidate.

Why bring up this issue again? I hope it isn't what I'm thinking. Disrupt 2015 elections...no elections will take place and move for a single tenure of 7years. Guess they have no plans to contest anyway.
