The strongest & most sellable Igbo man who was already an establish ruling class was Soludo, despite his Bank cock-ups d SW & moderates in d North would have backed a Soludo candidacy than Ngozi, but Jo-boy destroyed that promising young man's ambition by awarding that election to Obi & secondly Jo-boy was too scared to dear Ojukwu. Today Ojukwu is almost on his way out, but d most promising man east of dNiger in both d SS & SE career lies in ruins courtesy of Jo-boy yet Igbo's today are still supporting Jo-boy, d Igbo's had better join d new gravy train in Town which is Team BB. |

KnowAll: Who's the strongest and sellable from other regions, you freaking tribalist. jason123: Who's playing tribal politics. I have told you, you sit behind your computer and type nonsense claiming to be neutral. A region supports one man, you term it tribal. Can you tell me what's happening in the NW and the SW.? |

What is the quality required of a Vice President? If you ask me, I will say time and time again, there is no better Vice Presidential material than the bold, principled Pastor Tunde Bakare. Come to think of it- Obasanjo's interest in dropping Pastor Bakare was a personal vendetta not National Interest. Then for somebody to insult my intelligence that Babangida will support Buhari is like living in Fantasy Island. Who is fooling who? Buhari may not be an academic Ph.D holder BUT He is a Man of FOCUS, not easily moved by material or greek gift. With due respect, Mrs. Iweala is not made for the Nigerian Vice Presidential Post but will get my full support to come back as our Finance Minister with her vast experience, unlike the 'Agangas' we have now. The future of Nigeria should START Now with the Buhari/Bakare ticket. The Time is NOW. |

The same Buhari that overthrew Shagari/Ekwueme, so that the latter wldn't hv the opportunity of leadg during that era of serious reconciliation - in fact Buhari's emergence was somewhat a cog in the wheel of the progress the, that same Buhari also denied an internationally experienced hand such as Okonjo-Iweala the VP ticket; let him be assured that NDI-IGBO votes will go 100% to Jonathan/Sambo! |
Re: Buhari Rejected Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala As Running Mate by Dave6: 9:37am On Mar 31, 2011 |
As Seun rightly said @ the OP, it's very likely that the story isn't true. But if by chance it is, then there is a part missing by either the narrator (Pastor Bakare) or the journalist was just another quack: Since P. Bakare claimed he sought for the opportunity to leave Nigerian politics and such an opportunity (for him and for his very beloved country) for a vibrant candidate to take the position of VP came along, WHAT WAS HIS RESPONSE TO BUHARI WHO ASKED HIM WHETHER HE WAS READY TO DO JUST THAT? Secondly, isn't Okonjo-Iweala a Nigerian and a person of her own? If Obj/Ibb or whoever recommended her, so what? Was she qualified? Wasn't it a great opportunity for Buhari to demonstrate to Nigerians that the end to political 'godfatherism' had arrived and ensuring that Obj and co. would have no influence on individuals appointed to any office? With his 'anticorruption stance', I don't even think anybody recommended by the 'devil' go wan enta office mess up! |
Re: Buhari Rejected Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala As Running Mate by nateevs(m): 10:02am On Mar 31, 2011 |
Nigeria is not ready for any sort of development. Every political discussion always ends up in a tribal tussle. E.g. Diligence: This poster will vote for a non-Igbo Presidential ticket solely for the reason that an opposing aspirant has denied an "Internationally Experienced Igbo Hand" a VP ticket. I am curious to know what the poster's decision will be if GEJ was the culprit that denied this same Igbo VP ticket. Would the poster have said something like . . . . "GEJ is reh reh reh . . . did blah blah blah in 1980, not intelligent, wined and dined with corrupt PDP leaders for too long, and that same GEJ also denied an internationally experienced hand such as Okonjo-Iweala the VP ticket; let him be assured that NDI-IGBO votes will go 100% to Buhari/Bakare!" ? If it's true that the poster would have said the above, then this confirms my assertion that the reason many people vote is drenched in tribal sentiments. If the poster would not have said the above, then don't post on a forum that you would not vote for someone because they have denied an Igbo ticket. It reeks of tribal sentiments. Until the average Nigerian on the street is capable of rising above trivial tribal judgement and endorse or discard aspiring tickets on an intelligent level, I can't but conclude that Nigeria as a whole is very far away from National development. Unless someone sneaks into power from the back door and defies all odds! |

u people are just jobless. LIARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. @ Adanora , bro Book no be everything my brother, na application matter, in fact most of the book book people we know have failed us time and time again (Ajumogobia, Rilwan Lukman, Jubril Aminu, Jubril Martins Kuye, ) Go to The Emirates and see what their leaders are doing by having a vision and a drive that is married to the people who can deliver when u put all these Harvard, Goldman Sachs, Oxford Scholar, bla bla bla in the 1st level of Government, sometimes, they are all Red taped in their ways, Seminar up Seminar/Conference ds and Conference that every week, with no action, But OBJ was fvcking her so tey de dey saw asoebi, Not so?? @ Rhino.5dm, naaaa, Baba tried sha but he no happen, I'll give you and incident, i did some due diligence (free of charge, as a sacrifice for The Ministry of Finance during Okonjos tenure and I was very close to 3 of her so called Consultant PA's, I got to know that OBJ was annoying to Okonjo by calling her very late in the night (unholy hours cos OBJ does do meetings till late in the night even with so called MD's of the Western Corporates who need his attention for some deal or the other, (BP, Shell name them all, even Richard Branson has bn spotted waiting for the President for up to 6 hours in Aso) Anyway back to the issue, one late night Baba called during our debt cancellation negotiation and said to Okonjo, (come over we are having a meeting with some people I want you to see, she goes, Baba it's late, this people can wait till the morning Baba OBJ replies, Okonjoooo haba now, we aer paying you Dollars ooo, u need to be working 24/7 oooo, ok come and have a drink with them to get to know them and we can talk about issues bothering your ministry This is the best time that I have since Im always dealing with politics during the day, Tafa balogun just left anyway and a few of your ministers are still waiting to see me. Thats as much as OBJ tried, all throughout sha, she managed to keep BaBa OBJ at arms lenght, Id say OBJ did or tried 1 out of every 15 women he came into contact with in his Government if you play a prominent role, things were that messy in Aso oooo |

Although this story may not be true after all but, I saw El-Rufai with Bakare on his campaign in Oyo, Ogbomosho and Ife. Again, during Jonathans' concluding campaign in Abuja last Saturday, OBJ publicly declared that Zoning is well and kicking in PDP. So, this leaves me in a strait position right now. Nevertheless, thank God that Gen. Buhari did not played into OBJ's deadly traps. |

Re: Buhari Rejected Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala As Running Mate by debosky(m): 1:16pm On Mar 31, 2011 |
nuzo: Quite insightful comments nuzo. . . . .consciously or subconsciously, people are letting the choice on who to support be dominated to a great extent by their tribal affiliations. The tribal differences are only becoming more apparent this time around because the 'neutralisation' of tribal affiliation by ensuring the maincandidates are either all yoruba/hausa or hausa/south south do not apply this time. There is a straight fight between North and South, interlaced with some southern divisions as well. While I don't think this is good for national unity, it will be a true test of whether people can actually look beyond their tribal background and make a (partially objective) choice. |

Seun: Haba Seun!!! Has the PDP bribery machine reached you too. It seems you are now on GEJ's pay list as these your comments are indeed suspect o! Don't forget that once the elections are over, you are bound to squander whatever you collect and may lose your own integrity along the way. If you keep at it, NL may lose it's appeal. I'd advice you to safeguard and cherish what you have o! These unguarded statements will make you and your business lose credibility. |

Seun:You are allowed to hold opinions and even make suggestions. The onus lies on you to ensure that your suggestions are backed up with facts and not falsehood, lies and deceptions. You may own NL, but your words are certainly not sacrosanct! Joining the fray of those falsehood and deception peddlers on NL will only do more damage to your business than any good. You have labored hard to achieve what you have, following this path of misrepresenting the truth will only bring you short term returns but a lifetime of misery. Take my advise bro, I've been there and seen it all. |
