If Buhari Wasn't Contesting, Will The Polity Be So Tense? by GBTYO: 1:23pm On Mar 26, 2015 |
The only reason our polity is so tense with high anticipation of post election violence is because of one of the main contenders- Buhari. Buhari supporters are highly prone to resort to violence as they did in 2011 accross some states in northern Nigeria. There is no indication that APC suppoprters will not repeat what they did in 2011 rather all indices point to the fact that the level and spread of post election violence will escalate. So my question to you, is that, with all honesty if Buhari wasn't contesting will our polity be so tense? The possibility of post election violence is not in doubt but what will ensure that this country does not slip into total anarchy is if Byuhari will call his supporters to order. Buhari again is set to truncate our democracy and even our. Unity. 2 Likes 1 Share |

It will because millions of Nigerians who are not blinded by PDP will still opt in for a candidate better than GEJ. 6 Likes |

WisdomFlakes: I wish you were here in the north and will want to see how your APC card will reassure you of being immuned from mob violence. Your fellow APC plebs in the north will not care if you supported or voted Buhari. They will see you as a kafur and summarily lynch you to death. This is a real and prresent danger! |

GBTYO: That Buhari has the support of the poorest Nigerians most prone to engaging in acts of violence is whose fault? Did Buhari make them so poor and disenfranchised to the point these people who have absolutely nothing to live for are now ready to fight for a man, i.e GMB, they perceive as their only hope of salvation and deliverance from the undignified life of poverty and deprivation the PDP has condemned them to? Did the poor, neglected, abandoned, ill and hopeless in society not flock to Jesus? That the most poor, least educated, most neglected and most angry Nigerians support Buhari is a measure of his goodness even if a wicked soul like you cannot perceive this. Should those who have lost hope persevere with the callous GEJ who lets them die like chicken, uses ten air-planes when they do not even have a bicycle and eats N1 billion food annually while many can barely eat a meal a day? Thank the famed docility of Nigeria that the likes of GEJ you worship have not ended up like Samuel Doe for their heartless and inhuman looting. To top it off, and as another measure of your lack of intellect, you claim Buhari will truncate our democracy yet I must ask if you even know the meaning of democracy. Democracy is a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system. Can it be said we have had true democracy under the PDP and GEJ? Does the PDP use the money of Nigeria on Nigerians i.e the people? Are Nigerians empowered under the PDP? Have they acted in the interest of ordinary Nigerians to validate the notion that power resides with the people in a democracy? Instead the PDP, including the GEJ you worship, loot copiously and reward themselves massively while they give the people nothing. Nada. Zero. You will see true democracy when Buhari wins because he will lead for the people and make their well-being the cornerstone of all actions and policies his government will initiate. That the almajiris, talakawas and akushes worship GMB and queue behind him is a credit to the character of Buhari. These people, even if elitist "suffering and smiling" sycophants like you do not acknowledge it, are in the majority in our nation. They are the ones all of us who are privileged must focus to uplift and not insult, disenfranchise, discountenance or look down upon. Yes the poor and ignorant queue behind Buhari but this is because he is their main hope that there own children and offspring can escape the fate which has befallen them courtesy of the misrule and monumental corruption of the PDP at the centre. I don't back violence. I condemn it vehemently but understand why people who have absolutely nothing to live for are ready to fight , in a country full of very wicked and heartless leaders, for the emergence of a decent, godly and pro-people leader they are sure will do his best to improve their lives and give them something to live for. We are all praying for a violence-free election but never you ever, even with your wicked and anti-people soul, speak as if Buhari should be ashamed that the poorest of the poor and those who have lost hope completely are his biggest and most passionate followers. If Nigeria were not a Country full of wicked souls then we would not be hosting disdain in their hearts for so-called almajiris and talakawas. We would all be looking, as quickly as possible, to liberate them from the poverty, lack of opportunity, abandonment and deprivation that has condemned them to be what they are. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

I disagree with you. The reason everywhere is so tense is that this is the first time since 1999 that an opposition party has a reasonable chance of removing an incumbent. We have never had such a strong opposition neither have we had such a tight presidential race. The uncertainty of which way the pendulum will swing is what is causing the tension. |

Sweetguy25: You are the one who is disgusting because you are nothing but a vile, hateful, prejudiced and ethnocentric fool. My message is clear to fair-minded , morally upright and intelligent Nigerians. Corruption and misrule, of the worst and most wicked kind, created the illiterate and underprivileged class we all have to deal with today. If decent, you will be on the side of looking for the solution that will make these folks more productive to society instead of talking, like the OP, as if the poor and underprivileged are not human beings like me and you. You people support one over-indulged , worthless and higly corrupt leader yet you look down on millions who are where they are because crooks like GEJ stole and destroyed their lives. You are more than disgusting. |
