We are closer to the Abacha million man March days when prominent Nigerians were conscripted through announcement of their names on radio, television and newspaper.

. My attention has been drawn to this report by Femi Adesina and Garba Sheu on APC campaign committee. I disagree with the two media aids on Dangote s status and inclusion on the list. campaign committee members have different roles to play. Same applies to Dangote.Why putting his name on the list? if his name is there just as a record keeper or an observer he has become a member of the committee.So there is no need of manipulation in this matter.Many Nigerians read English and understand it.However that Dangote s name is there is another strength of the party.

This hypocritical nature of Nigerians still plays major role in the situation of this country. So what's the position that exonerate them? Anybody appointed into a committee either advisory capacity or member is to work in the interest of the committee in this case which is the success of the campaign and you are saying they are not partisan, were they appointed as an opposition? There is nothing bad in what they have done, they have their right but you coming here to manipulate things shows how hypocritical you are and shows some guilty conscience if not, you will not defend in that manner.

Election Adviser?
There are more to it than we know. If they want to be partisan, they have the constitutional right to do so but not on the guise or deception of over 170million Nigerians.
All we pray for is the best candidate to win and not the other way round.
INEC should have enlist them as advisors and not a particular party.

I think you meant to say they are in the advisory committee to give their advice on how to accumulate more wealth to themselves in detrimental to the public, also known as the rich getting richer and the poor and middle class getting poorer.
