i like your analysis but a strongly disagree. i live in lagos. fashola did not do anything tangible in 6 months. fashola was a part of Tinubu's government and was an active part of Tinubu's cabinent and planning team. he is a man with vision i must say. but it is not true that he did much in 6 months. like i posted somewhere else, the adeniji jones bypass had been going on since 2005. they still havent done it half way. most roads in alimosho LGA are in a bad state. you can call up people in agege, iyanopaja, abule egba and many more areas.

Sorry, I own a place in the same Lagos and I can tell you that in the first 6 months fashola accomplished more than Jonathan Goodluck could claim for his 12 years so far in Government. If you are honest and ready, we can pull the records heres and find out the fact!

Notice that I did not mention any single project when I mentioned Fashola . . . so there is no need to attempt to make this about any particular one. I know anyone with a clear conscience and mind will definitely state the fact and that is -- What Fashola accomplished in just his first six months in office is still more than Jonathan can claim for his 12 years of service in Government( Both official and Unofficial records considered).

that is not to say he hasnt tried, i still give him a pass mark because i know these things cant be solved overnight. his biggest problem is actually Tinubu as the latter has been doing everything to derail him because Tinubu wants to control the finance of lagos and become the next Awolowo.

I am not here to analyze the Fashola case . . . simply here to point to the fact that a year is more than enough for any serious leader out there. Ask Fashola, Amaechi Rotimi in River's state, Sullivan Chime in Enugu State, Mimiko in Ondo State, Shekarau in kano state, even Oshiomole in Edo State --- these men have more than shown that a year in office is a long time and anyone who is serious can achieve much in even that short time.

my statement did not imply that GEJ did nothing. i was only being realistic that i do not expect anyone to do much in 1 year and nobody, not even fashola has done that. funny yoU mentioned 2 PDP governors amongst those who have done stuff. CPC supporters will NEVER ADMIT THAT! anyway, if you wnat me to compare, i will

GEJ since assuming the presidency, even after all he suffered from the north, has

1. Eradicated fuel scarcity. I know Buhari supporters will always try to rubbish that. but it is a fact.
2. Has proceeded to privatize PHCN and several companies have just submitted their intentions of interest. over 300 companies have showed interest. even in the face of sabotage by PHCN staff who do not want the status quo to change.
3. Our refineries are now working and he has just announced a plan for new refineries to ensure complete local production.
4. He has announced incentives for various industries like the entertainment and others to create jobs.
5. He has given free hand to INEC to conduct a free and fair elections. Even his enemies have agreed that the choice of Jega was a noble one.
6. He has shown a ot of leadership maturity even in the face of agression and insults from opponents. he just fired a key member of his campaign over a statement on Buhari because he has said he would not engage in insults.

he does have a lot to learn and i think he is humble enough to grow. but he has shown great promise as one who can unite the country, not divide it. fashola did not do that in 6months not even a year. all the projects that fashola did in the first 2 years where projects started in the Tinubu years. he didnt do anything new. i can challenge you to that.

Well, here is the reality of what happened during his years in Bayelsa . . . HIS RECORDS SHOW HE DID NOTHING!!! If you go back to the Bayelsan news from the times, the news on who Jonathan was when he was runnning for office, and the news during the Alamieyesha case in Bayelsa, back before he was made Governor, you can also conclude he was not considered much of a leader as a result of his own record even then.

1. Eradicated fuel scarcity. I know Buhari supporters will always try to rubbish that. but it is a fact.

This has nothing to do with Buhari -- the fact of the situation is Fuel Scarcity reduced because Oil production increased. It is really that simple!! I mean we were not producing much oil and so it made sense that every occassion -- especially out in the west when demands go up(especially towards christmas and after -- winter), the supply would go down in places like Nigeria to ensure the western states willing to pay more for the product, got it. Now, with the increase in production levels by the oil companies as a result of the reduction in MEND activity on their facilities means Nigeria now has more fuel available and hence the reason why we have the perception that there is no more fuel scarcity.

The NNPC deal is a whole different story which I have no info on and so not really fit to comment on at the moment.

2. Has proceeded to privatize PHCN and several companies have just submitted their intentions of interest. over 300 companies have showed interest. even in the face of sabotage by PHCN staff who do not want the status quo to change.

But these are dreams that have been in the works for so so long --- since Obasanjo self -- what has been accomplished so far

edicolove:

3. Our refineries are now working and he has just announced a plan for new refineries to ensure complete local production.

Which REFINERIES are you referring to? When exactly did they STOP running ?

edicolove:

4. He has announced incentives for various industries like the entertainment and others to create jobs.

Again, I don't believe promises are accomplishments!

edicolove:

5. He has given free hand to INEC to conduct a free and fair elections. Even his enemies have agreed that the choice of Jega was a noble one.

Here's a kicker . . . INEC has always been an independent body . . . only before now, we did not sing that song much. I will say that Jega seems to be taking that INDEPENDENT status more seriously, but if I have to commend anyone for INEC successes, it will be Jega for turning out to be different from his predecessors.

edicolove:

6. He has shown a ot of leadership maturity even in the face of agression and insults from opponents. he just fired a key member of his campaign over a statement on Buhari because he has said he would not engage in insults.

No, this is where you lie . . . a man who has 12 years under his collar and nothing to show for it can never be considered a leader after that long a record. He would need to redeem himself and mere pretending to be a mute when questioned is no mark of a leader -- matter of fact, people prefer agressive leaders who are able to deliver -- for instance Fashola ! lol

He has shown no promise -- what he has actually shown us is that with his 12 years, we have all the reasons we need to know he is not a leader . . . anyone can pretend or look humble but not anyone can pass for a leader . . . there are unique qualities and humility is not necessarily one of those qualities. It does not make one a leader -- it is a measure of character but when a character sits and does nothing for 8 years but rakes in 5 million dollars in that time still, I think that whole good character nonsense also goes out the door!

Bros I can't help but laugh at these laudable and indeed laughable achievements from the stables of GEJ as you posted.

1. If you know the cost and overall gbese (debt) GEJ has incurred to score this cheap point of seemingly eradicating fuel scarcity, you'll weep for you future generations. Se how much your country has spent in Q1 of 2011 on subsidy for importation of fuel in the link below.

http://odili.net/news/source/2011/jan/25/821.html

2. Bros PHCN is yet to be privatized. Enough of rhetoric, until PHCN becomes privatized, you cannot claim it as a glory for GEJ. It's like saying since you have passed WAEC simply because you have sat for the exams.

3. Abeg list the refineries that are now working and their daily output. How can refineries be working and we are still importing increasing high volumes of refined products. Na where you get this wrong information from?

4. So na entertainment we all suppose dey do now? Apparently Nigerian youths are so dumb to the extent that Mr. President deems it necessary to provide incentives to the entertainment industry to create jobs. Na so him mates for other parts of the world dey create jobs for thei citizens?

5. At least we have finally confirmed today, the sort of free hand GEJ has been giving to INEC all along. Free hand ko, free leg ni!

6. So firing a member of his campaign team who was running his mouth like tap water is an achievement to you. Your expectation of your government is indeed very modest o! Abeg even my little boy who's just turning 6 expects much more from the Nigerian government.

Sorry pal, your depth of knowledge about governance is indeed questionable. Please take your time to study small countries like Ghana and Rwanda to figure out how they's been able to get it right while we are still groping in the dark.

your answer simply gives you away as a biased person who will find fault in everything just to win an argument. you should be objective. i dont expect you to agree with all i say but you should be objective. just like the proverb says, you are giving a dog a bad name in order to kill it. my points are indeed true and commendable and even some opposition people have acknowledge that. the only thing i will add is that you should not show that you are not current. the local refineries re working. the reason we are still importing fuel is because they do not meet our demands. that is why new ones are needed. both the warri, portharcourt and kaduna refineries are all working. it is a known fact. please update yourself.

Can you imagine someone who calls GEJ fresh and that's the reason he is voting. You refuse to support Ribadu any longer because he's pitched tents with Tinubu - the fradulent , yet you think GEJ walks alone?

How do you think he was picked to be running mate of Yar 'Adua's ? Was it because of anything tangible he achieved? Was he that respected in PDP? Did he deserve it?  Who picked him? Godfathers? And are these Godfathers still around?
Does GEJ owe them? Does he still feel the need to be grateful for reaching where he never deserved?

Answer all these questions sincerely from your heart and tell me again that he is fresh.  And if you walked away from Ribadu for reasons of perceived corruption, must that same principle not apply to GEJ?

Chief there has been no time in recent memory when all the refineries in Nigeria were completely shut down. The real issue is that the refineries have been working well below their capacities. I aksed you earlier to state the current outputs of these so called refineries which you are lamely attempting to score a point with for GEJ, yet you refused. Give us the current output of the refineries. Stop beating about the bush.

All VPs all over the world including the one in the party you support are picked. they are not elected like the presidential candidate. i dont understand your statement above. and the greatest criteria you look for when picking a VP is loyalty and trust. the next criteria is normally his/her appeal to certain demography, just like Obama picking a more experienced person as VP to counter those who said he had no experience. please i told you, answer objectively.

I didnt say i walked away just because of corruption alone. the reason i walked away is the hypocrisy. he reneged on his word because of his ambition and therefore cannot be trusted. GEJ has never been a hypocrite. i wouldnt call him a saint because i cannot vouch for all his life.i dont live with him. but i havent seen any hypocrisy with him. dont forget that the same ACN that walked away from the one man one vote event organised by Oshiomole because of the presence of IBB, have gone to him for endorsement again. what do you call that. please call a spade a spade.

CPC do the right thing.

CPC do the right thing.

You no dey tire? Your follies and deceptions have been exposed, yet you keep harping on a lost cause. If bluelabala feel they have a case, I presume the courts are there for them to make their case. In case you are not aware, bluelabs will be summoned soon to the courts to answer to the case of libel against the person of Buhari. I hope those bluelabalaba guys still have some of GEJ's largesse to defend themselves in the court, 'cos they'll pay heavily for this fraudulent attempt at denigrating Buhari.

^^^
Are you guys dunces or what? If bluelabs has a case, the courts are there to adjudicate the matter. If bluelabalaba feels cheated, they should proceed to the courts. Just as I've warned earlier, bluelabs should start perparing themselves for a libel suit. If bluelabs thinks their way to stardom and wealth is through this cheap blackmail and defarmation, they surely will not be in existence for long.

^^^ You get time for that dunce or sorry dude?

He thinks this forum is a Judge Judy court room.

Ignorance they say kills people.

Bluelabs as you try to call them:

1- will go to court
2- they will file the case
3- spends hundreds of thousands in doing so
4- they will not get any date till after the elections
5- After the elections, Buhari's campaign people will disappear into the thin air

At least this way, the truth will be known, the injustice is made public, the intimidation, insincerity and lack of integrity is laid bare and evident by the responses, and all other intending intellectual property thieves are taught a lesson.

At the end of the day, it could have been you

BB is winning the elections regardless of the blackmail

COURT!!

Only South-East and South-South fully supports Jonathan. North Western votes beats the votes of those regions merged together.
