2019 Political Alignment: Dear Politicians, We Are No Longer Gullible by TonyeBarcanista(m): 6:05pm On Nov 15, 2016 |
In 2013, a group of politicians from the now defunct Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), Congress for Progressive Change, and a faction of All Progressive Grand Alliaance came together to form a "United Progressive" party, which is today's All Progressive Congress. These politicians would later be joined by a faction of People's Democratic Party that called themselves New PDP. Nigerians in desire of better leadership were carried away by the gimmicks of these politicians. In 2015, they successfully wrestled power from the not so impressive government through the now President Muhammadu Buhari under the change mantra. Almost two years after, instead of change that they promised, the masses fortunes have gone from bad to worse. It is an open secret that some of these politicians are coming together again to align and form a strong force in order to wrestle power from the failed government of Muhammadu Buhari, just like they did to Goodluck Jonathan that brought Buhari to power. Their hope is to ride on the unpopularity of Buhari to preach their own version of change. While I am not against any alignment, I have to warn these men that Nigerians cannot be fooled the second time. It is true that most Nigerians want to see the exit of Buhari in 2019, it is also true that unlike what we did in 2015, we shall go for better alternative. An alternative that is driven by patriotic Nigerians. It is ironical that the same people that put us in the mess we are in since 1999 through different platforms are now trying to unite to oust Buhari just for their selfish interest. Conditions For Support Of Alliance If these politicians really want the progress of Nigeria, they must agree to the following terms; 1.Young people must be carried along and put in the know from every stage of the alliance. 2. 25% of party elective and appointive positions be given to Youths between the ages of 18 and 35. 3. 25% of party tickets for 2019 and subsequent elections be ceded to young people between the ages of 30 and 40 (being the constitutionally approved ages for political offices). 4. Nomination fee for young people be waived or greatly reduced. You cant expect a young man of 30 years to cough out 1million to buy Nomination form. It is not enough to reduce intelligent young men and women to social media trolls while the old people continue to plunge our future into comatose. With due respect to the"elders", they have shown that they are bereft of new developmental ideas, it is time to involve young people into the leadership mix of Nigeria. Finally, I wish to use this medium to send a message to the leadership and chieftains of the Peoples Democratic Party that though young members of the party are committed to rescue Nigeria, we shall not entertain the tradition of marginalisation and neglect. Nigeria belongs to all of us! Enough is Enough May God Bless Us All and Bless Nigeria Shared on Palmchat 120 Likes 23 Shares |

These thieves know how to manipulate the people to do their bidding. They know that a lot of nigerians are very poor and they how to share things so as to appeal to people to do what ever they want them to do. How can one explain the whole entire southwest with the most educated and sophisticated people been led by a jaganbandits who thinks for them by dictating to them and they will follow sheepishly. The malo have used and dump them and i believe since they cant reason for them selves they wil cotinue to use and dump them them like a useless pad 15 Likes 4 Shares |

TonyeBarcanista:Guy but you yab oo. Learn to speak for yourself mbok, because Nigeria certainly has ample supply of eternally gullible people... People who hate Muslims but love Shiites because they are at loggerheads with the President. People who hate Aisha with all their hearts only to turn around to become her fanatical supporters simply because she took a jab at her husband. People who hate Yorubas and call them all manner of derogatory names but are slaves to Fayose and FFK because both hate the President. People who wish Nigeria NEVER progresses but turn around to complain about her economic condition. People who insist Chibok is a "Scam" but still say Mr President paid huge amounts of money to secure the release of same Chibok girls. People who hate everything North but are best buddies of Dasuki and want to land grab the middle belt into one useless imaginary country of theirs. People who jeer at other people's misfortune but expect everyone to sympathise with them when they trip over a pebble. People who are so dumb they can't create unique monikers but have to clone others'. People who swallow hook, line and sinker every lie told by some useless godforsaken bleached squirrel languishing somewhere in the slammers. There can NEVER be a shortage of GULLIBO people in this country mr. 64 Likes 14 Shares |

Funnicator:There is no party ideology in Nigeria politics. In fact, Being in PDP, saw how pathetic the party was, switching to APC to see if it would be better for nIgerians only to realise that they are 1000% worse than PDP. . Return to PDP with mission to change and reform the party (which I am still pushing).... I think that is patriotism. It is about the country not self. Otherwise, I would have joined those in support of corruption and economic sabiotage Don't give me story of Trump shifting his goal post from Democrat to Republican years ago, he did that once, you did yours twice or thrice.Wetin concern Tonye and Trump? 6 Likes |

Progressive01:I understand that gullible people are everywhere but what can we do to help it? I don't play politics of hate, but I guess some of my comrades are yet to get over 2015. But again, we gotta move on. I am not saying people shouldn't align with President Buhari or APC, that will be madness. I wish young people irrespective of divide can push for the generational change in leadership. |
