Do u sometimes listen to yourself?
Besides our different political affiliations and I daresay insights,I do honestly respect your approach to issues,unlike many of your kin on d otherside,but sometimes u disappoint me.
How can an educated person like want to hold a man to his promises when he hasnt even assumed office?It doesnt make any single sense.

he with all optimism made those promises before the election, after he was elected he started singing a new song, he began talking about how infeasible his promises were, we, well meaning Nigerians were thrown into panic mode.

But the task requires some modicum of being in good physical health, this guy is a geriatric that would be wheeled in at close of discussions to rubber stamp the committees input.
Monkey dey work baboon dey chop, Buhari is only rewarding his friends from the 70s, I don't think Nigerians expected that.
Ahmed Joda is as strong as his fellow octogenerian, Christopher Kolade that Jonathan appointed to head SURE-P.

there are no friends in politics take a cue from goodluck case only permanent interest so i will rather wait for buhari to unveil his ministerial list before i can be sure his is only appointing old people's
There are no friends in politics but there are mutual friends who could never be forgotten for favors in politics, now tell me, where was Ahmed Joda during Goodluck's administration? Do you know his earlier correlation with Gen Buhari? Why does he has to surface in the picture just now after his long active participation in politics?

Kennedy came from from "America's unofficial" royal family, dude used his family name to boot.

As for the U.K, half of the "peers" in U.K house of Lords are people who inherited those titles.

Unlike the elected House of Commons, most new members of the House of Lords are appointed. Membership of the House of Lords is made up of Lords Spiritual and Lords Temporal. There are seats for 26 Lords Spiritual who sit in the Lords by virtue of their ecclesiastical role in the established Church of England.

I pity some youth chanting CHANGE, Sai Baba, on this forum, your hope of becoming a leader is evaporating.

For your information: your future is been colonized by the same people who ruled your parents.

Welcome to a new Nigeria of CHANGE with the same people as of 1960. undecided

Please allow Nigeria to enjoy the northern colonialism and slavery under the born-to-rule 95-year-old Fresident-fwa-life that they have elected.

At least the Boko Haram terror gang have now completed their contract of making Nigeria ungovernable in order to pave the way for the new, long awaited northern dictatorship, and the Boko boys can now enjoy the proceeds of the Niger Delta oil wealth with no further share needed to be wasted on those who live there, along with anyone else who is not part of the new northern hegemony.

In short, Nigeria, count your blessings and shout for more change, because chump change is all you will get now ha ha ha.

So Nigeria is so bereft of experience and ideas hence Joda was called upon to provide his experience and expertise? Seems like a perverse incentive for 90yr old Shagari to make a triumphant return.

Baba Shagari we need your experience and expertise please.

No! I understood your message and you are very much on point, but my argument is, are we going to live on this till thy kingdom come? By the way, the fact that am partially against the olds system of our government is not because they can't do something better if they wish to, but because the course that is affecting the youths today resulted from them, hope you understand the theory of causality?

Bro, Jo is not desperate.

Go look up the dictionary meaning of desperation.

Desperate is when a man rules a country for two terms (8 years) and pays his goons to put in good words for him for a third term.

Desperate is when a man loses an election, goes all weepy on national TV, which of course sparks an outrage....Over 800 lives lost.
Yet, there is not a single documentation of this man publicly condemning those killings in the strongest possible terms.
Years later, Nigerians are yet to get so little as an apology for his past sins.


My political ambition is not worth the BLOOD of any Nigerian.

Nobody’s political ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian. ~ GEJ 2015.

^^^ No desperate person thinks in those lines.

Matter of fact, I know a ruler who is desperation personified.

No. I haven't criticized him.

I have merely judged, based on his antecedents.

People are more informed these days.
A criticism from the opposition, especially one that is issues based is just a reminder to the GMB train that they must hit the ground running.

Ultimately, whether we are of the proposition or opposition, we collectively want a Nigeria that works!

Does it make sense to imagine actions/results and criticize them just because he must hit the ground running?

Trust me, the hero image with which the world media painted GEJ gave us a very soft landing.

Talk of being winners in a slight marginal loss.
I don't know about others, but for me...it is fun.
I stopped being pained a looong time ago.
If I were still pained, no Jupiter can make me congratulate GMB. I don't say what I don't mean. That's hypocrisy.

I take it you're talking about Barca's latest thread?

Well, I think it makes sense that we bring to the fore, antecedents as such.
What he did was mere comparison.
A warning of sorts.
"Nigerians must be on the watch, lest history repeats itself".....that makes sense.

Surely, you don't expect TeamOpposition to just fold hands waiting for May 29.

If the incoming administration have started making concrete arrangements on who becomes house speaker, who does that and who does this....if they are all over the news like it's past may 29 already...why don't we tell them to slow down till handover date before filling our faces with their news.

Imo, the opposition needs to gather more steam.

Criticism hasn't begun yet.
This is warming up.
