@Beaf
Dont mind them, they want 5 months magic.

violent:


I'm not asking for 5 months magic, and of cos, neither am i asking for a President who approves spending billions on waste bins and more billions importing rice from Brazil!

what next?. . .the president will prob want to celebrate Christmas at some point!

just remembered. . isn't it the same Jonathan that got a 7 billion naira house?. . .i don't want such presidents!

7 billion naira if spent at 200 million will build 35 state of the art schools with the the best technology across the country!

but hey no, our President deserves a good house!

1 billion naira if budgeted for student loans at 10 million per Nigerian child will see 100 million Nigerians going to school in their life time, guess what? we just spent the money on dustbins---quite appropriate you think?

Once again, I'm not asking for miracles, all I'm asking for is a man who is smart enough to make better decisions that will have a better long term value for the average Nigerian, surely, that can't be too much to ask, don't you think?

oh!. . i haven't even stated the amounts shamelessly spent on rice

I'm sure that spending money is sometimes strategic to maintaining the peace. It is just a few months from the Yar Adua saga, which if handled wrongly would have led to rivers of blood; but for some reason, we Nigerians seem to forget very quickly. The forces that held the nation to ransome during Yar Adua's time are deeply entrenched in every financial and power structure in the country. It will take time to uproot them and they have proven, time and again, that they can put up a very dirty fight; from the Jos massacre's to the military movements that accompanied the smuggling of Yar Adua back into the country. . . And now the bombing of our golden jubilee celeberations.

Removing the cabal will be painstaking, but it is the only way we can progress as a nation, because they have tied us down like an animal for sacrifice. Jonathan has done well in removing their tentacles, so they've wheeled all the biggest shots into the PDP race and even released a two week ultimatum for Jonathan to withdraw or witness unquantifyiable mayhem in the country and possible secession. Is the bombing part of their promise?

jabbok:

I agree with you. Please I'll like you to air your view on the scenarioa I am about to paint now. Just your view.

Jonathan goes for total rebirth, dumps PDP, insists on one man one vote

df2006:

hmmmmmm! what is the motive to take this poll[b] now?[/b]

na_so:

Dont mind jarus, he wants to use the poll to advice ribadu, either to continue or pull out of the race.

jodeci:

Call him naive,call him dullard,call him whatever u may choose.

He is the best among the list.

He may make few mistakes here and there,they are all part of growing/learning process.

he is a very humble person that always reminds us of how he grew up.

he will get my vote anyday anytime.

princekevo:

My question to all my fellow Niger Deltans, Is GEJ the best SS could produce as a Vice or president?
I need an answer to question please. If 'Yes' then Shame on us, if 'NO' then we need to get our best to represent us. We cant afford to enroll our name together with the regions that kept this country backward since independence out of sentiments.

Faeb:

Are you real? What all progressive minds are set on in these epochal times, is the end of all tribalistic and regional thought; the end of zoning and shuffling. You need to key into that.

princekevo:

What is regional in selecting someone i think is more capable to handle the job than anybody from any other region? Moreover you are not answering my question.
You call it tribalism or regional thought becoz you think SS can not produce some who is capable of bringing the change we need. Why then are we blindly behind Jonathan? If we put sentiments aside and chose a credible person, what make you think Nigerians wouldnt vote for him?
