Goodluck Jonathan's Presidency has proven to be a total sham!. . .his PDPerian style of leadership is not much different from the previous administration's approach mostly highlighted with unquenchable thirst for power and a personal interest in the national purse.  His character has also been badly affected to the extent where reasonable and smart Nigerians will rather believe the earth is flat than believe the first three statements that proceeds from his mouth.  The moments that led up to election has proven beyond measures that the dude even though experienced in political affairs lacks the basic elements of quality leadership and agility.

We all have read news about how the President once blamed an unfortunate bomb blast on "Northern elements", a claim which till date lacks credibility. . . .more news of how Mr Jonathan spent the National resources recklessly importing dustbins, celebrating anniversaries, bribing delegates, bribing individuals and groups, all directed towards a selfish political end,  . . to add to the fury, this same character has refused to deliver on his promise of fighting corruption, rather, the Haliburton probe report was thrown to the bins, and murder suspects set free, solely to add to his winning numbers at the PDP primaries.

These and more portrays the incumbent as a man without clear directions and one afraid to step on toes even if it meant for the good of man and country.  How anyone will wish for this man to remain in power for another four years is beyond me, simply because he promised infrastructures and federalism. . .Hell, even the late Yaradua promised a 7 point agenda!

@Gbawe: And what/which are these "Right Battles"?

I assume this question was meant for me. As an example, we all know the senators and house members make an insane amount of money. Well, if Ribadu becomes president, that is not one of the battles he wants to fight immediately. If he does, virtually 100% of these people will be against him and he will not get anything done in his administration. He needs to be VERY STRATEGIC in all he does.

I challenge you to provide a single link to a quote by GEJ saying the bolded, please remember to apologise after you fail.
The rest of your post is of similar loose quality.

Its actually 'Atiku style failed politics.'

It is the politics of anything goes ugliness, lies, bigotry, threats of violence, aspersions etc.

Interesting debate! The all conquering (albeit mistaken) corruption killer, Ribadu cannot fight corruption in high places!
What then are his credentials for the presidency? His experience is Nil and like Atiku, he will not even carry his own local government in an election. What are the credentials being preached? How can a man who is unknown in is home state be pushed at Nigerians? There's something fundamentally wrong there.

Ribadu, no doubt is a relatively good man as far as the Nigerian political scene is concerned, but his archilles hill is that he has zero experience of life outside a uniform.
He would do well to gain some experience in the diplomacy, patience and wisdom that are required to socialise and sell ideas in a civilian setting.

The man is so unprepared it is shocking anyone would devote a second to his already marooned dreams. Some might consider that statement harsh, but picture the following:

By some miracle of tectonic proportions, Ribadu wins the election
The House of Reps is 90% PDP
The Senate is 90% PDP
26 governors are PDP
Ribadu storms in and begins ordering everyone about. . . 2 and a half weeks later, Ribadu is impeached
Or, Ribadu smells the coffee, and since he cannot investigate corruption in high places, he simply joins in and pops champagne

Reality check. . .

Quote
Pointblanknews.com learnt that at his briefing with select media chiefs in Abuja on Thursday, Ribadu said he would not bother himself with the integrity of politicians who elect to sponsor his campaign.

When asked at the Wuse , Abuja briefing to justify his alliance with Tinubu who has been accused by his EFCC of laundering about N20 Billion of state's cash, Ribadu said “ I won't bother myself with the integrity of politicians that will sponsor my campaign as long as they won't keep their stolen money in my pocket”

Nigeria needs a cool, wise head like Jonathans, not boxer and wrestler types who have not given due consideration to the responsibilities they so casually propose to bear.

Jonathans quiet way is what the anti-corruption battle requires, the recent PDP primaries is an example. Compared to all other parties, it was a showpiece of excellence. We all counted the votes out of the transparent ballot boxes together. Way to go!

Ribadu has no political experience, question is so what?  Peharps it is high time we stopped attempting to solve a problem with the same thought process that caused it.  
We had in the past leaders with political experience whose success can only be measured by their loot size and the number of high profile political assassinations that took place under their belt.

It's totally absurd that some Nigerians will rather their President have portfolio of political experience than character or integrity. . . where the hell has our senses vanished to?. . .we keep asking for change and yet we keep asking that those who contributed to being a part of the problem come back into power, are we thinking at all?

Ok, no vex, lets assume Ribadu is very experienced. Please tackle the points raised sir, it shouldn't be too difficult.

. . .And don't neglect the challenge I threw earlier for you to provide links.

To The Citizens of our Great Nation,
First of all, I want to commend you on the years you endured, the years you have suffered, the years you have gone without constant electricity and water, the years you have watched your brothers and sisters die just because they cannot buy a medication or be offered free health services. But there is hope, we have a seen the way the older generations have violated this country,we have all seen the way the PDP cabal has almost divided the country just because of zoning. Then, why would you vote such a party? Why do you still want to suffer? Is it not your generation that is meant to be ruling our country? Is it not your fresh minds that are meant to dictate the direction of this country?
My people, there maybe no other chance. Why are you SCARED to vote PDP out? Please, cast your vote without sentiment (eg GJ is from a minority etc. It's all part of the political propaganda). Please vote for who is right. Please, let your conscience guide you. Our future generations would not forgive us if we make a mistake now by voting GJ.
Ribadu has my vote but yours can be different as long as you do the right thing.

@Gbawe: You exude class and character. In as much as I like the way you've presented your arguments (wish I could say the same for GEJ supporters) I still do not believe Ribadu is electable. I think he is still a minor in the scheme of things when the talk is about Nigerian politics. But, then again, who am I deceiving like I know how politics work in Nigeria? Its not the U.S, Politics is always "ethnic", and the North will no doubt rally behind its own in order to oust GEJ. Personally, I feel the North is fielding too many candidates(split votes); for a masterstroke (hey, Nigerian Politics is all about playing dirty, anyways) some kind of confusion could be created within/outside PDP by fielding an Igbo man (sponsored by Atiku & co, maybe), whom it is known has absolutely no chance of winning (but is popular enough in Igbo land to reduce the amount of votes GEJ will get in the SE). Looking for a way to split whatever votes GEJ will get in the SEb should be paramount, because God help us if that man, his thieving wife, and his Kleptomaniac friends are allowed to rule us again for another 4yrs!

People said the same thingy about Obama

Have you forgotten the whole 'fairy tale' comment by Bill 'gigolo' Clinton?


Anyway:

ELDER statesman and former Attorney General of the Federation, Chief Richard Osuolale Akinjide (SAN) believes that the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) has made a mortal error in the choice of Mallam Nuhu Ribadu as its flagbearer for the coming presidential election.
Chief Akinjide is not alone. His views were shared, somewhat, by some other prominent Nigerians who, in separate interviews with Sunday Compass yesterday declared, pointedly, hat the election will be a walk over for President Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan.
Those who made the submission included the National Chairman of the Conference of Nigerian Political Parties (CNPP), Maxi Okwu, and former Petroleum Minister, Don Etiebet.
The view was also shared by former Information Minister, Chief Alex Akinyele.
They spoke with Sunday Compass after reviewing presidential aspirants across political party lines in preparation for the coming election.

Chief Akinjide, in a telephone interview with the Sunday Compass said that Jonathan would, “undoubtedly, win the election” and that Ribadu should have sought a ticket to the National Assembly.



He added: “He (Jonathan) is the best of them all. He is the one Nigeria needs at this moment. He is patriotic. He has got enormous experience, and will unify the country and the people.
“At this stage of our growth as a nation, the political leadership of Nigeria should not disappoint the people and the international community. We should present our best materials forward.
According to Akinjide, the PDP candidate is not in the class of Ribadu, a former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari, candidates of the ACN and the Congress of Positive Change (CPC) respectively.
He said, “Jonathan is not comparable to the other candidates like Ribadu or Buhari. It is like the difference between a people coming into a fight with an elephant and the other party coming with a tortoise.
“Ribadu should have gone to the House of Representatives or the Senate. He is not a material for a Vice-President. I won’t even make him a governor.”
Also, the former Minister of Petroleum, Chief Don Etiebet, said that the emergence of Jonathan has broken the barrier of ethnicity in Nigeria.
He said, “God’s time has a come in Nigeria. Now we look at the candidates, not where they come from. This was clearly demonstrated with the way the PDP conducted its presidential election where a candidate from the far South got elected by delegates from the far North.
“I envisage that Jonathan will win. He has shown capacity more than any of the other candidates to reach out to the various parts of the country and that is very important.
“At least for the first time in Nigeria, things are beginning to happen the normal way. President Jonathan appointed the chairman of the INEC, Attahiru Jega, without having met the man before but because he merits the job. That is important. If we start to do things that way in Nigeria, then we should expect a greater country in the recent future.”
In a similar vein, Chief Akinyele, said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), should be commended “for organising such a very peaceful and epochal presidential primary election.”
He said, “What the PDP had done has never happened before in this country. The Nigeria of old was where people voted along ethnic lines. But if you see what happened with the PDP primaries, it is obvious that we now have a paradigm shift in the politics of this country and suddenly it does not matter anymore where a candidate comes from. The PDP should be commended for that.
“ Jonathan will win definitely. Not because of the power of incumbency. But he has a very rich strategy team and because of his youthfulness.
“He is able to reach every corner of this country and that is very commendable. He also represents the new Nigeria because ethnicity is not longer a factor in Nigeria’s politics.
“The situation now is a radical departure from the practice in the past. The PDP should be commended because the party has put to account, its ability to organise a peaceful presidential election primary.
“I am not a member of the PDP or any political party for that matter, but when a party is doing the right thing we should commend it.”
CNPP’s National Chairman, Maxi Okwu, gave the April contest to President Jonathan who, he said “has a heavy advantage over others.

Apparently it is a big deal since some have stated it as reason why he needs to surround himself with his own "political gang" so he can win the next election. And again, when it comes to character and integrity, I ask where you all get that from Ribadu when we all know he selectively went after those that Obasanjo allowed. I mean Why not give credit to Obasanjo in this as well? While you are at it, also remember Waziri who herself seems to be doing just about the same.

I don't believe it is absurd though to want a president with a proven record along with measurable integrity, even if not absolute.

@Gbawe, I would start by asking you a question; Did corruption exist in OBJs' government? My reply to that would be that corruption was a dominant factor in that government. Ribadu it was who was saddled with the responsibility of scraping corruption under OBJ. what then happened. The head of corruption; OBJ himself who appointed Ribadu was never brought to book. All the inquiries by the national assembly on power and other related malpractices had fingers being pointed at OBJ. What did ribadu actually do to tame corruption in the country. This issue of Ribadu being a saint is actually being over flogged. What were his anticidents before he became the EFCC boss, what was his background, a police officer, arguably one of the most corrupt agencies in the country. Ribadu has not been tested, certainly not with the EFCC appointment. We do not know this guy. As far as I am concerned the whole EFCC saga had political undertone. On Ribadu, let us look before we leap.

^^ Thank you!

we want a candidate who will push for Sudan style referendum,

we want separation NOW!

Just like Obama came when America had no choice but to vote him into power, GEJ has come when Nigerians will have no choice than to vote him into power, i am not rooting for anyone in particular but a close scrutiny at the candidates will show that GEJ is the best candidate for the position, we shouldn't play regional politics anymore, it has taken this country backwards, we need to move forward, we need visionary Nigerians to lead this country into greatness.

Now lets look at the following candidates one by one starting with Ribadu, he was the machinery used during Obasanjo's regime to witch hunt Nigerians using the EFCC as a platform, he allowed himself to be used, if he gets into power, what'll stop same people who used him not to again? He may know the solution to curbing corruption in Nigeria but is corruption the only problem of Nigeria? what about education, power, health, and most especially our dying economy? does he have all it takes to bring Nigeria back from the grip of rot?

Buhari is a disciplinarian, strict and a dictator. His visions does not satisfy me, he is an elder states man, what has he contributed to this country since he left office? Look at the way he ruled ANPP. Is that what we want in our dear country Now? When confronted with the land use act, he refused to comment on it, what is he hiding from?

For the presidential elections, let us just give it to PDP. Other party ticket holders will only be spectatators at the end of the day.

@moderator:having followed arguments and counter arguments,i chose to preah the gospel of RIBADU.Buhari as discipline as he is is a known religious fanatic and that could endangered the co-habitation we enjoy in non muslim/xtian settings in south.GEJ is a well know of OBJ and am sure we all know its a dangerous permutation because its business as usual.We all can attest to the dynamism and good work of Mallam Ribadu when he was in charge of the anti-corruption agency.He is young giving a good chance for control transfer from the ol soilders to the young ones,he can hold his own water anyday and can as well step on toes without making a sacred cow of anyone found wanting(this much he did prosecuting some powerful politician wen at EFCC).This is an opportunity to shift from the old order.it is time the youths dictate what happen to our futures.Mallam Nuhu Ribadu is the man,vote him and you will be glad you did.

At last someone who is on planet earth.


This thread depends on a few things:

1. The readers are dumb, or young children. Why? Every adult knows that the ability of a President to be effective depends on his/ her relationship to the legislature. In Nigeria, any president from another party that does not control the legislature is DOOMED as far as implementing the programs he wants to.

2. The continued pandering to sentiment rather than matured political consideration. Why? Where is the candidate for ANPP? Where is APGA. In any mature debate these and other parties would be discussed here.

Lack of Political experience and Lack of independent will are never the same and should not be used synonymously. Bankole was merely in his mid thirties, and a businessman before taking up the role of the speaker of the house of assembly . . .

Although I agree with you that leaders with a proven record along with measurable integrity is ideal in this case, the truth is  none of the alternatives to Ribadu can boast of a solid record to be proud of. The country suffered massive decay under their belts stemming from ill informed decisions, it will be foolhardy and dangerous for democracy to call them back to office simply because they had the experience.

I remember Buhari's regime, who doesn't?

People were flogged on the streets like animals and many others were jailed for spurious reasons.  We lived in fear in our own country under the monsters of the duo of Generals BUHARI and IDI AGBON.  The same government changed Naira and encouraged all the thieves to bring in money through the back door until 32 suite cases full of naira was found on the Emir of Guwandu and government of General Buhari through Major Jakolo (the dethroned Emir of Guwandu) took the money away but the journalists were too afraid to put their names on the news. General Buhari played double standard with the trust we had in him. Two set of laws, one for the poor and second for the powerful Emirs of the North.

Will the same man believe in the right of Children, Rights of Women, Freedom of Information, state and City police, mayoral system of govt for our cities, compulsory life insurance for all users of public transports and those employed as drivers and security? Is this what we call a proven track record?

It is only logical that as rational beings, when presented with an impossible case of two or more evils, we best go for the less evil one. . . In this case, i will rather go for a man who although had the opportunities of amassing wealth overnight, choose to ignore that for the good of country and man!

because he has a constitutionally protected right to do so

because he has demonstrated a zero tolerance to corruption while serving as the president of EFCC

because he has enough exposure serving as consultants to governments of foreign states on corruption issues

because as a trained lawyer he understands the innings of the national constitution and has demonstrated a resolve to abide by it

because he has demonstrated an interest to always put the national interest above personal interest

because political experience is not only obtained by being in a politically appointed role, serving as a leader in a public office is enough to provide you with as much political experience you require

Jonathan fans will never address such issues even if those issues have dire fundamental implications for our nation and democracy.  Non of them has ever attempted to tell us why Jonathan , as the C-in-C , ignored the legislative gangsterism of Gbenga Daniel in Ogun State . A blatant attempt , by Daniel, to steal N100 billion 'retirement funds' is tacitly endorsed by GEJ !!! In fact , in testimony to Jonathan's insensitivity and blind desperation , Daniel was announced as the campaign coordinator for Jonathan in the SW region right in the middle of the Ogun State imeachment imbroglio !!!! We need strong ,decisive and firm leadership on many issues yet the only time we get that from Jonathan is when he is acting in his own interest like when Teslim Folarin was instantly cleared of a murder charge and flown to Abuja to deliver delegates for Mr. President . The way adoke (AGF) and Ringim (IGP) were used so partisanly , in the Folarin saga, makes a mockery of Nigeria as a nation that does not have even semi-strong institutions with any semblance of independence. That worthless Adoke is quick to acquit a suspected Murderer yet powerless to prosecute Nigerian Halliburton culprits.

Gbawe you know that most of this anti-corruptuion rhetoric you have been spouting about Ribadu is [b]absolutely meaningless,[/b]In the first place the instituions to fight state corruption already exist in Nigeria.-namely The EFCC and the ICPC.

Dude , stop following me around.

Even reading my last response before this one makes my point with my examples of the partisan usage of the office of the AGF and IGP . if you don't get what I am saying then that is your own wahala. If you wan't to know Ribadu's plans go here and download his manisfesto : http://ribadu2011.com/?page_id=15. Any bright person could have sought out Ribadu's plans anyway if genuinely interested but your attempt at mischief is obvious. If you don't know Ribadu's plans for Nigeria should the onus be on me to educate you when you can educate yourself? I don't come here to ask the plans of GEJ, Buhari or Shekarau when I can find the info I need myself.

Corruption is simply the first of all of our problems to be solved, not even electricity and the earlier we all realize this the better. My 1 vote will go to the aspirant whose campaign states clearly on how best they intend to tackle this. Fortunately Ribadu is experienced and for now he has my vote, simple.
