5 Quotes From Obama That APC Is Very Uncomfortable With by paullo240: 4:03pm On Mar 24, 2015
The president of the United States, Barack
Obama, on Monday March 23, sent a
special message to Nigerians regarding the
upcoming elections, urging that the voting
exercise be carried out peacefully.

Here are five quotes from Obama’s message
that members of the All Progressives
Congress (APC) are very uncomfortable with:

1. “Nigeria is a great nation and you can be
proud of the progress you’ve made.”
Obama acknowledges that Nigeria has made
tremendous progress that we can be proud
of. Listening to the APC’s message you would
think that Nigeria is not working, and Obama
rightly points out that we have made
progress under the present Jonathan
administration.
Who would want uncertain change over the
chance to keep progressing?

2. “Together, you won your independence,
emerged from military rule, and
strengthened democratic institutions.”
Read the quote again. Obama says there is
no going back to military rule. Do we want to
go back to being bound by the shackles of
dictatorship? Buhari says he is a “reformed
democrat” but as we all know a leopard
doesn’t change its spots.

3. “You’ve worked hard to improve the
lives of your families and to build the
largest economy in Africa.”
Contrary to all the lies that the APC has been
trying to sell, our economy is progressing,
and it did not become the largest economy in
Africa by chance but by the good policies of
the Jonathan administration. Obama states
this fact whilst acknowledging that the lives
of Nigerians have improved, and thereby
showing the APC to be liars.

4. “Violence has no place in democratic
elections — and that they will not incite,
support or engage in any kind of violence
— before, during, or after the votes are
counted.”
When violence is mentioned, Nigerians cannot
extricate General Buhari from his famous
statement before the 2011 elections and his
famous silence after his supporters went
wild. The Blood of Dog and Baboon statement
recently made concerning the 2015 elections
still echoes deeply. The APC is threatening a
parallel government also… Obama’s speech is
a clear warning against that.

5. “Boko Haram wants to destroy Nigeria
and all that you have worked to build. By
casting your ballot, you can help secure
your nation’s progress.”
Secure your nation’s progress. Don’t change
your fortunes.

Obama’s call on Nigeria to secure our
progress is like a call to retain President
Jonathan under whose presidency this
progress has been achieved. As it is ill
advised to change a commander-in-chief
during war, Nigerians must fight together and
eliminate Boko Haram with the armed forces
who are presently winning the war and
sustain this momentum.

Obama also said: ”in this task of advancing
the security, prosperity, and human rights of
all Nigerians, you will continue to have a
friend and partner in the United States of
America.”

Lest we forget, Nigerians are still much aware
of the flagrant violation of human rights
under General Buhari, resulting in a rupture
in diplomatic relations with the UK and
others.

I watched the video, the two points up there are actually in a single statement.
I think you decided to break the statement at the point where it served your interest.

There is a father that is very rich, yet the children are poor.
Even Doyin Okupe acknowledge that the growth in the country's economy can only support locomotives.

Both parties (APC & PDP) are guilty of this.
You can say it was right for Mama Peace to ask for the stoning of political opponents

paullo240:

5. “Boko Haram wants to destroy Nigeria

Secure your nation’s progress. Don’t change
your fortunes.

It was obvious from the outset that this was exactly what the sect was out to achieve.
They gained unimaginable grounds while the political elites were trading blames across party, ethnic and religious lines.

Overall, it is shameful and disgraceful that world leaders are preaching how important peace is to us during elections.

Any fire from Jonathan now cannot be holy fire and hence it cannot work.
Why?

President Jonathan out of desperation had joined the Ogbonis Fraternity as shown in several dailies when he visited Traditional contractors lead by Ooni of Ife.
