And the scary thing about Mugabe is that at 90 years he is in really good health for a man his age.

And scary thing number 2...he wants to hand over to disgrace....sorry Grace Mugabe....his dear dear darling missing rib.(whom he started dating when rib one was still alive....but that's another story. grin)
That man is a nut case.

most of this guys were not Democratic leaders, Kaunda spent 27 years in power, mehn he is not the only one in the country.. u can't compare that to what gej did, after just one term decides to step down. that's statesmanship that no president in nigeria even the coward of ota cannot be given. .. I think obj the self righteous man is a disgrace to leadership in Africa. only in Nigeria that an ex president would overtly undermine a sitting president because of his selfish, primitive and parochial interest. he should learn from the likes of abdulsalam, ibb, shagari, even buhari on the essentials of being a statesman.
i doubt if most of these men are humans,how can u hold a whole country hostage for 27yrsanyway,mugabe prepare,GOD is planning your death!

Phahahahahahahaha. In your dream brother...keep dreaming. Do you know what the Mo Ibrahim award is all about? We are talking about gooooooooooooood governance here and not just conceding defeat to your opponent. Some Nigerians can be annoyingly sentimental! Please visit Google for more information about the award.
We understand as a janjaweede you guys must be wincing in pain seeing the accolades pouring in for GEJ even stealing the glory of your illiterate president elect Buhari...Too bad,the ball has been set rollin and nothing you janjaweededs can do about it....

Well done to him but that shouldn't erase his misdeeds that allow the avoidable death of thousands of Nigerians all because of his pettiness. He must account for the billions of naira that was budgeted to fight Boko Harams.

And i hope by the time Buhari will be defeated come 2019, he will equally concede to the defeat without putting lame threats to the people of the country? It's good that records have had it this way and let's see what will happen 2019 when Buhari will be defeated (that's if he will even still be alive then).

You have made no point. Even the write up taken from Wikipedia acknowledged him as " the first Nigerian sitting president to do so"

Appreciate good things when people do them.

Both APC and PDP both suffer from PVC failure.. GEJ made so many mistakes and the highest of it was PVC .If TVC were used this election will b more violent (my opinion and based on my experience as a 'NYSC' Returnin officer in Ondo state 2013 election ).. He underated how hard and dangerous it is .. Gone are d days of 100% votes (TVC). In 2011 he had roughly 7mil votes from his region(ghosts voters included). Its just a matter of time before dey can manipulate this PVC 100% cos I trust naija .. smiley

When will we in Africa mature in our thinking ? Why praise people for doing the right thing ? Was it not part of the contract that if you lose elections you must step down ? The only politician worth praise is Nelson Mandela...he is the only one who stepped down after 1 term. Unlike all the others you have listed he STEPPED OUT of office on his own terms...he was NOT PUSHED out by the people for poor performance. There is a difference.
