The reason you conceded victory to PMB Was because you were defeated.

Adminisher:


This is extremely STUPID, completely ignorant and low IQ.
Obasanjo practically handed over to Jonathan. Yaradua barely did 2 years. So the North has been out of power for more than 16 years. It is very important to think at a high level and stop being childish.

Pidggin:
As expected, majority tribes bullying a president from a minority tribe out of office. With the number of cancelled election results by the judiciary, it is obvious that the entire election was filled with irregularities. He should have gone to court for the sake of Nigerians who voted for him. Bigots do not appreciate the sacrifice you made Sir.

anonimi:


Sir, I don't think 2010-2015 makes 6 years or does it
Meanwhile I like your optimism about voting Buhari out when his FAILURE would be apparent to more people. I hope it aligns with reality by then.
Cheers.

myproperty:

That is a good reason by a sound mind. How many times did Buhari go to court after being defeated.
He is in government now because somebody lost the seat and relinquish it, If Buhari as an incumbent para-venture lost in the next election( if he contest) would he relinquish and accept defeat?

Firefire:
“Should I then, for the love of power, watch Nigeria slide into a theatre of war, with my fellow country men and women dying, and many more pouring into other nations in Africa and beyond, as refugees?

Should I hang on to power and tussle with my challengers, while the investments of hard working citizens of the world go down the drain? I then said to myself, NO! "

Resisting the lure of power...


May those killed in 2011 post Presidential Election violence continue to rest in peace.

The first civilian governor of Lagos State, Alhaji Lateef Jakande, on Tuesday, said that the cancellation of the Lagos metroline project in 1985 was a major mistake and disservice to many Nigerians.

Jakande spoke in Lagos during the launch of a book which chronicled his life in politics and journalism.

The book, entitled, ‘Jakande: Leadership in Action’ is written by Dr. Bola Olaosebikan, who told the audience at the event that the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), was not responsible for the cancellation of the project.

Jakande said, “Reflecting on the metroline project, I think it is a major disservice to many Nigerians. Imagine how many people would have benefitted. It would have made life easier and changed the face of transport in Lagos. Whoever cancelled it or gave the advice towards its cancellation didn’t do right.”

The former governor asked Nigerians not to vote for unserious leaders in the coming polls, saying the elections presented Nigerians with a good opportunity that should not be squandered.

Expressing the hope that Nigeria would soon overcome its developmental challenges, Jakande said hope would be actualised faster if credible people emerged as leaders in the next dispensation.

He said, “This book comes at a very auspicious time in Nigeria’s history as we need leaders who can act. We need leaders who would not compromise the standards of good governance. God has blessed this nation the most in Africa, although we have not reached where we should be; with the right leaders, Nigeria would overcome its challenges.”

Well I understand that u r kid, and u won't know wat really transpired in the mind of GEJ. Am not sure u would av been here typing this thing. U seriously don't even know wen War is knocking on the door. So u think GEJ was actually defeated? With 1.9million votes in Kano with NO VOID votes and underage voters that was all over the. Cyber space; am not sure u saw our airports that day right. They were filled to d brim; am not sure u know of weapons been transported to the north; am not sure u wondered why all the northerners were leaving the southern part of Nigeria to their town. U think is too vote; my friend Wen u sit down with elders; they will school you more about the theatre of War GEJ boycotted intentionally.

Be careful wat u wish for. Cos u won't know until it happens; it's either u appreciate him or keep quiet rather than coming here to type wat u just did.
Thank you.

Basically, GEJ is saying that even if he had reservations about the elections, he knew that if he had contested the results, the North and some of their SW allies would have visited mayhem on the country. He was literaly 'bullied' out of his constitutional right to contest the outcome of the election. GEJ saved a lot of lives by conceding defeat. Unfortunately, if he had to do this to save lives, APC is not likely to be a Government that will effect any meaningful change

macino1:
For once, I commend your philosophy of life and the courage to relinquish power to your contender so easily. That action is indeed, a rare trait in Africa. However, you were too milk & gentle to lead a complex country like Nigeria, to that effect, you sacrifice the hope, trust and the golden opportunity of we the NigerDeltans.

You can check the 15 pages of pictorial SAMPLE of the achievement of his federal administration for you to assess his comparative success against other presidents/Heads of State and the 36 state governors as well as 774 LGA chairmen.

Leeeekeeee:


pls saided it again.

JoyPaulLaw:


With all this characteristics mentioned....... What exactly did he achieved? What are those things we can point to as his major achievements? Nigerians should learn to call a spade ...a spade. I don't support anyone/party... But its time the masses should use their voting power to chase any non performing govt/administration. If by 2019, there's nothing of significance we can point to in PMB's administration.......Vote him out!

Toks2008:


My brother i tire o.

He keeps ranting as if he was not defeated.

Buhari won neatly.

makenzie:
is the hope of he Nigerdeltans to rule forever? I DON GERIT!!!

efilefun:
Nigeria ain't a country where you lose and still hold on to power, this ain't Zimbabwe, if someone would have held on to power after his tenure, that person should have been Obasanjo cuz he was so powerful/power drunk then not GEJ who was placed there, so sure he would have lost PDP primaries if it wasn't canceled. He "sounds nice and gentle" but too soft and clueless to rule a nation like nigeria

Oh so Babangida lost at the polls or was GEJ a military head of state You just dive into matters u don't understand, Abegii park well make I spit

Pidggin:


What do you expect? You want your hero to cancel elections he supposedly won in other areas? You need to pray for deliverance so you can think clearly

noblegrex:
yeah!!!may your days be long I.that man is a FOOL. I always got angry and surprised each and every time they say that word.'That he Left power peacefufly'is it his great grandfather that owns this nation,do they own Nigeria?that will say their son has an inheritance of it.for God sake this is Nigeria.it belongs to everyone that God has giving the oppurtunity to become a citizen.for God sake JONATHAN is a citizen like one of us.he's just furtunate to ba the president and he or any other fool can never hold on to power for what.majority of us liked him so much and suported him.expecially some one like me in 2011 election and nobody contended that.so,why will he lost and want to contend it.he uses his sweet,sugar quoted mouth to fool me.when Ya ardua was in Hospital.I thought he's going to be a great leader,not knowing he's a big disaster.he should have tried it and see if he's not going to be affected the more and some gullible fool of Nigerian will keep saying he left power. Na him PAPA get Nigeria. Nosense.
