Firstly ,lets look beyond thier naviety ;Now have we asked ourselves why the idea of zoining was put foward, are we right to change this  .hmm , ok my view ;The fact remains that in country as heterogeneous(in tribe) as Nigeria , it is to the benefit of peace and sanity for such idea , moreso if  we reject   the idea of zoining now have you guys try to ask yourselves what will happen in the next 4 yrs( I mean nxt election) , then it will be big confusion , as it is since stable democracy we had South doing two terms and North with a truncated first term so , hmm what will happen in next 4 yrs(Lack of foresight)  .
 As much as I also don't support Atiku , the power of incumbency and stay in power by all cost  being exhibited by GEJ also disqualifies him , If PDP is really a sincere party why not invite a Northerner that is perceive more capable by the masses, if they call on someone like Ribadu or even one of the Northern Governors  wont that be more fair
Lastly , I remember once we were all against OBJ going for three terms , I will point out with GEJ running its like OBJ going for his 4th term , If most of you despise Atiku(like I also do ) , then you should despise OBJ and you should also be against the idea of GEJ . Even looking at other Major parties they are choosing Northerners( Cos they are sincere and they know what is right)

NIGERIANS FORGET THINGS SO FAST AND DONT LOOK AHEAD WELL ENOUGH , INSTEAD OF LOOKING FOR A RIGHT LEADER WE GOING TO VOTE SOME GOOD-LUCK , GOD SAVE NIGERIA

Let them kill themselves.
At the end, the remnants will come round to the tables.
Then we'll discuss to seperate and go our ways,
As it is being done currently in Sudan.

Nigeria has reached its inevitable end,having survived for so long being toyed around by fools.
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by phantom23: 11:51am On Jan 19, 2011
For as long as there is a divide between the North and the South , Christian and Muslim, Zoning, etc, then there is a problem with Nigeria.
This is the root cause of every other problem in Nigeria.
A day would come, when a little boy from the anywhere in the country, whether south, north, east or west, can proudly say i'm aiming to become the president of Nigeria without any uprising form other political or geopolitical zones, and would get there. that day is when we have a sincere and ONE NIgeria.
Aside that, sorry, Nigeria is just a F**king joke!!!
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by phantom23: 11:57am On Jan 19, 2011
Lakode, I'm sorry but you are suffering from shortsightedness. Why can't my son wake up one day and dream of becoming a president? Why can't another child in the north wake up and say I dream of becoming the President, and another from south, east, or west, or however you zone it. That is true democracy. Zoning is crap. It's just a truce reached by this same PDP to keep power circulated among the high and lofty politicians in the country. As far as I'm concerned, He who has the right credentials should get there. North, south, east or west.!!!!

Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by Dave6: 12:27pm On Jan 19, 2011
I've been in Kd for some weeks and I didn't see or hear of any protest or disturbance.
Speaking of texts, the ones I've seen or received are those of congratulatory messages for the PDP candidates and their requests for support.
Where's all these sort of news claiming havoc originating from? We need to seriously scrutinize our news/information agencies to avoid unnecessary problems. Any source claiming there are riots in Kd (at least) is just being sympathetic with Atiku.
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by charlesxpe: 12:30pm On Jan 19, 2011
This Northerners suck a lot. Lets face reality here, who told them that to rule Nigeria is their birth right? Every single election we conduct in this country always have the North complaining. Take a look at this years election, apart from PDP that has a southerner as its candidate, all other parties are fielding a Northerner as their candidate, is it not embarrassing? I'm not a Yoruba but I like their conduct of political matters, why dont u see them burning ogun state or osun state cos they didnt get d ticket?
At times what Ghadaffi said seems true that d best soln for Nigeria is to split up cos d northerners are so desperate for the resources that they dont have but yet want to steal.

A word for the Northerners: Stay clear of our oil, u guys are just a bunch of greedy fellas dat dont want a united nigeria.
During the Groundnut pyramid era in the north, the proceeds were used to build ABU zaria, they never shared d proceeds with any other region of d country
The Westerners under d cocoa boom provided free education for their indigenes.
Now with the oil boom in the southern part of d country, d Northerners have always had a way of trying to steal this resources, hence PTDF was formed and a hausa man was d head (Buhari) imagine undecided and the proceeds was used to build good roads in the northern part of d country, no wonder d north has d best roads in d country, and they r not yet tired, they want to steal more thats why they are so power drunk.

Let they know that 1 igbo brother is equivalent to 3 stubborn almanjiri so they should be warned
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by DeSheikh(m): 12:32pm On Jan 19, 2011
@Kcswat22
The best option is to divide this useless country let d north has its own president,the west n the east. Rem the US is trainin many igbos in there army for 2015 in case if d 2015 referandum failed. Lets divide this useless country they the north can vote whom they like. Simple

Just when I thought the Imam was ranting out his fantasies, the bolded part in ur post has confirmed his claims of what some elements in the south are planning with backing from the west.

wind don blow,

Politics should not be a DO or DIE affair.if some lost he should go back to d drawing board and plan 4 the future,y would these people go out protesting GEJ*s victoey at the primaries.is not their birth rite to continuously rule this country,they should be educated.
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by lakode(m): 12:38pm On Jan 19, 2011
phantom23 see the fact is Nigeria isn't a democracy to compare with that in the western world , yes your child can wake and want to be a President why not , but in this case the PDP already made this agreement and in the case of Nigeria we are a  massive  country that has over 100 tribes(counting the sub tribes), and you see if we refuse to zone then their will always be problem, as we all know some tribes in the country have more capable Technocrat , I.e if you refuse Zoning then probably most Nigerian President will come from the SW(arguably the part of the country with  most intellects ) , so will that be fair,, You guys cant compare the Politics in USA or some other country to Nigeria , even before now we all know its the turn of the North , like in 1999 when OBJ was contesting it was a all south-west  affair . I am not saying GEJ cant be president but its not just right time(or maybe he could contest under another party) , plus try and assume a situation Yaradua didn't die will there be this argument hmmmm,, all I ask for is fair play simple
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by yabadabado: 12:40pm On Jan 19, 2011
ZONING is not a joke ma broda. am from the south and i believe it can be an acceptable policy if it is broken down to involve the 8 zones in nigeria , south-south,north west, south east , etc and within each zone, the president must have the credentials/quality that can compare positvely to the credentials of the leaders of the great nations like america etc. when a zone can't provide these, then , they lose their turn.
Again , every president elected must have more federal impacts/project in other zones except his own, the governors in his zone can come up with projects and impact with his support to cover for him/her.

[i am from the southern part of nigeria] if the truth is to be told, the south is only dealing the drama for 4 years and people are fighting as if jo will be there forever,  what if a fool wins in 4 years time tru jo and changes all the good effects you all are expecting jo to perform ?

i believe that jo is not an honourable man becos he has broken an obvious agreement that exist within his party, this means he can do the same to other tribes within the southern part of the country and other tribes within delta and bayelsa state.   this is not a christian presido VS muslim presido thing pple ! if almagiri are uneducated for them to behave like they do , why are educated nigerian not so different.  me tinks THE BEST PRESIDENT NIGERIA NEEDS DID NOT WIN ANY PRIMARY THIS YEARS SO, RIBADU WILL DO 4 D NEXT 4YEARS

Because they are educated and civilized. They will never engage in such thing, also, the Yorubas both Muslims and Christians love their selves and will never involved themselves in such useless act.

why!

so you dont percieve what is going to happen! You remember few weeks ago the IJAWS threat to embark in war if jonathan didnt win so now the northerners are creating the opportunity which the biafrans will use and reconcile with the niger delta force(imagine biafran soldiers of late 60s with the niger d militant of early 2000s)then face the north in which outside world will now support the south cos the govt power is at their hand 4 now.After the war maybe there wont be break up but a confederal system of govt and ThERE WILL NEVER BE A REGION,ETHNIC OR RELIGION CRISIS AGAIN IN THE NEW UNITED REGION OF NIGERIA >URN (new name).
The problem is that blood will flow and also the Yorubas ? Really confuse of whom to join in the fight cause they are always scared but wont have any other alternative than to join the people in power(GOODLUCK) as they did in late 60s.

The Yorubas been more of the enlightened of the three major tribes understand things better which reflect in their character. I acknowledge the courage of the Igbos but we all should come together to reason together and decide our future by not voting based on tribe or zoning but by proven competence of the individual aspirant and political party.

I'm a Nigerian from Ekiti state which shows i'm Yoruba. I see myself as a Nigerian before i consider myself been a Yoruba man, unfortunately most of us see otherwise and see ourselves as first either a Yoruba, Hausa or Igbo before been a Nigerian. We need to change this mentality that is destroying us.
Re: Riot In The North Over Jonathan's Win by Dejavu147: 1:14pm On Jan 19, 2011
@ SKYBLUE1, I strongly concur with your decission and believe in what u've said, But there is one thing that 9gerians are "FINDING OUT" now what i mean by finding out now is that, it has gotten to the Stage were we no longer VOTE for parties But "CREDIBLE" Candidates and that is what is helping GEJ Presently, for those that think PDP is the Devil, well, am not in support of Corruption or anything bad, but i think we should try @ least to face the reality for once cos, i want  us to know something that "PDP" is just a NAME for the party & it is been govern by people,so the DEED is done by people not by PDP, But by the people running it,so i dont think running to other party like ACN,APGA Etc will solve the problem we're facing in the country & as it is I Stand to be corrected,it will rather WORSEN our case cos they'll want to recoup all the money they've spent on Investing during the campaign etc, My people it has gotten to the stage now for each and everyone of us to let the Northerners Know that,this Country belong to all of us,and we can not allow just few GREEDY,ILLITERATE,SELF CENTERDNESS PEOPLE to take us for a ride anymore,and we will stand and Vote for anybody we think can move this country forward enough is enough and if they think they can Instigate their Almajeris against us,then they should know that WE ARE READY FOR THEM, God bless 9ja,God bless All.
9ja O ni Baje oo!

Did Nigeria suddenly become heterogeneous in 1999, why was  zoning not practiced before then? or the heterogeneous nature of Nigeria was not known to both military and civilian governments before then?.

Why did Northern candidates  contest the 2003 presidential primaries when it was supposedly zoned to the South?

Why was the South West given 8 years of rule when it was zoned to the whole South?

What stops a South Westerner from contesting again when it's the turn of the South again?

There are too many unanswered questions with  zoning to make it viable the way it is constituted.

You want a Northerner to become President again while those from the South East have not produced a "President" in 50 years, is that honorable?.

(FYI I am not from the South East).

which mentality ? Have you ever been to the north during any crisis or riot ? Do you know the next thing that will come out of that riot? I bet you its killing of the southerners especially the igbos(as they took them as their worst enemy). And let me tell you the only government solution that can minimize all this killing, rooting,destroying of property in naija is my ABOVE SOLTION. Anywhere maybe you wont understand this until u lost any of ur siblings in those crisis.
NOTE:'my suggestion of nigeria might be wrong to you and be right to another'.
And please stop using 'enlightened' to cover 'fear'. So maybe yorubas are also more enlightened than germans(who fought the WW11)even though lost the war but gain their governmental power in europe which they lost in WW1.
