We Need An Electoral Debate by Coleslove: 5:29pm On Mar 13, 2007
[b]Fellow Nigerians,

I really appreciate the idea of my brother on his post on Opinion polls in Nigeria by the media. Rather I feel it could be properly addressed as an Electoral Debate. So far I have not seen a credible candidate forthcoming in our 2007 Elections. Most are just having repeated programmes, manifestos, and empty promises. The candidates condemn the outgoing governance to make up popularity for themselves. I have observed that the majorities are voting because of popularity. We are not voting for change or credible change agent. "Charity begins at home" it is said but reverse is the case. The question we should ask is that how many of them have tried to influence their community willingly, with their own sweat and hard earned cash. Not through fund raising and expecting till you get in to power and use the public fund to make the public happy again. What benefit have the community had from the individuals personally? This I why I feel a debate should be held with all contestants. For instance all presidential candidates should be grouped together and questioned one after the other openly and let the public see what kind of wolves we have in sheep’s clothing. The Ministry of Information and National Orientation could do this. I bet you we would have better governance if not, at least 60% better one.

Opinions are welcomed.[/b]

Atiku is corrupt
Yar Adua is not Liberal (Sharia was adopted in Katsina state under him)
Buhari is a coup Head

So that leaves Utomi cheesy

A heavy analysis u done there dude!


@Coleslove:
Nice idea and it's worth a TRY!

An OPEN debate, with NO-HOLDS-BARRED will do us well to tackle these people on WHAT VALUE THEY HAVE TO OFFER.

I'll suggest some questions:
What will they do to correct/repair the level of MORALITY in Nigeria?
What will they do to uplift the personality of the next man on the street?
Will "Complete STRIPPING / confistication of assets be imposed on all Corrupt persons?

Cheers.
