Don't be decieved.

Voting GEJ is like maintaining the status quo. If we truly want a change, we must sweep him along with this tsunami.
Remember that he might be a good man with good intentions, but he is on the wrong (and devilish) platform called PDP.

A vote for GEJ will return all the LOOTING FACES (bank ole, iya bobo, omi to sore, etc) back to power in the form of Ministers, Special Advisers and Ambassadors. What do we get at the end ZERO - because the party continues.

SO LET US JOIN HANDS TO UPROOT PDP THIS COMING SATURDAY FOR A BETTER FUTURE FOR US AND COMING GENERATIONS!!!

Yeah right! and vote who? the Tinubus of this world and the Buharis of this world? thanks a lot for the option. I'll stick with GEJ. I have had enough of Tinubu here in Lagos, stealing the state dry. and read this: The new PDP with Jonathan at the helm and in control is a thousand times better than ACN or CPC. Nigerians know better and saturday just proved it.

Once upon a time, a certain party came out preaching change and while we were about to celebrate, they went and brought someone who has spent over 35 years in and around government as their candidate. How is that a recipe for change? A man that should be at home playing with his great grand children. This country na wa o! Change ko change ni!

IF GEJ WAS TRUSTWORTHY HE WONT ACTUALLY BE CONTESTING THIS ELECTION, PDP HAD A ZONING ARRANGEMENT WHICH HAD BEEN AGREED TO AND FUNCTIONAL LONG BEFORE THIS ELECTION, IF HE HAD INTEGRITY HE WOULD HAVE STUCK WITH IT AND SERVED HIS "LUCKY TERM" WITH INTEGRITY AND WAITED FOR HIS PROPER TURN

That answers it all.

I'll like to remind you that Tinubu is not contesting.

Also, are you sure of your facts about Tinubu "stealing the state dry"? Anyway, if that's the way people steal and still get things done for the benefit of the populace, I think I'll support that kind of stealing.

You can see the difference in the state where Tinubu steals from and other states in the Federation - THE DIFFERENCE IS VERY CLEAR!!!

Once again, think twice before you cast your vote for PDP's GEJ.

It is so sad when you see young men making undemocratic statements like this. It is a bad sign for Nigeria. Zoning in 2011 especially after they have ruled for 39 years out of 50 already? you "born to rule" sycophants from the north will never thread on our future again. never! If GEJ had gone for that crap, it would have set Nigeria 40 years back. Thank God he is more intelligent than that.

what has Tinubu done? nothing my friend. you want to compare him to Donald duke or Rotimi Amaechi? Tinubu would do a one kilometer road and use 10 million to print posters talking about the road. rubbish. most of the roads in Alimosho are useless. They just keep using propaganda to spread falsehood. The Adeniji jones bypass construction has been going on for over 7 years now. still no headway. the lagos water ways project is still a dream. not to talk of the botched Enron fake project. He spent the last 2 years fighting Fashola every step of the way because he wants total control of Lagos money. building 3 toll gates in Lekki that is a residential area just to enrich his pocket. Where did he get the money to setup The Nation newspapers? TVC and the radio station? Tinubu ko Tinubu ni1
Re: Jonathan Has Shown He Can Be Trusted! So He Still Gets My Vote by Manpikin1(m): 11:06am On Apr 11, 2011
Suddenly some people believe there can be an uprising in Nigeria. not any time soon.

If GEJ allowed PDP to rig, nothing for happen! una think sey na egypt be this.

Nigerians do not love Nigeria to the extent of laying down their life. is it because GEJ is not a dictator like OBJ or Abacha?

is it because he has given you the confidence to go out and vote.

when them shoot 3 people for Abuja, every body go enter house.

They will just kill, arrest, or bribe the head of the protest, and everybody will go home.

Suddenly we think we will all work together.


Stop being Naive, Just Make sure GEJ remains the president.

Can you count the number of persons that have already lost their lives this election season? Don't just open that dirty mouth of yours to voice any rubbish. Especially, when you are not aware of the happenings around you. Nigerians have had enough. Therefore, whosoever rigs this election will definitely pay with his dear life. Just WATCH AND SEE

So when you loose it is rigged and when you win it is free and fair, abi? you lot are sore losers. do the honorable thing like bankole (i cant believe i am even crediting him for this)  and congratulate the winners.
Re: Jonathan Has Shown He Can Be Trusted! So He Still Gets My Vote by kimbaby: 11:23am On Apr 11, 2011
Nigerians can never be pleased and grateful, one man showed us that we can have peaceful and fair elections, something i never thought would happen in my lifetime.

INEC carried out the elections but if jonathan wasn't honest we would have started hearing another set of results in abuja and Jega removed immediately, the worst nigerians can do is protest for one day then the police will come out with guns and teargas and everyone will lick their wounds.

if jonathan wasn't honest votes would not have been counted in front of the electorates
was buhari not with ANPP before, who would have allowed his party members win PDP during Obj's time.
we have forgotten soooooooooooo soooooooooooonn all the matchet cuts, all the fighting, all the killings and at the end of the day someone will just come out to broadcast one figure as the result.

even if he makes bankole or iyabo ministers so what that's his choice, but he allowed us to also have our own choice by not forcing them on us.

jonathan is credible, he's my hero, he gets my votes and that of my descendants.

UP JONATHAN!!! HE IS A GREAT MAN AND A GREAT LEADER FOR A GREAT NATION

The first set of results were the true results but all the delayed ones were doctored.If you look at the pattern, joy and video coverage of the first set of results you would believe that it was free and fair.Call any village woman in Imo State and ask if they voted PDP.Infact I got a call from one of the PDP guys in Imo yesterday telling me that ACN won Orlu,APGA won Owerri and Okigwe but they were looking for ways to manipulate the results.

Re: Jonathan Has Shown He Can Be Trusted! So He Still Gets My Vote by Koolking(m): 12:00pm On Apr 11, 2011
not the issue of goodluck jonathan being trustworthy, but the measures put in place, the voting options adopted by inec make it nearly impossible to rig. if you think of rigging, then think twice!!!!!!!!!!

I could have sworn the title of the topic was ; Jonathan has shown he can be trusted so he still gets my vote? so whats up with all the other irrelevant discussion?

Has Jonathan shown he can be trusted? Yes or No

Does He still get your vote? Yes or No

In my opinion the answer in Yes X2

I do not make careless statements.Ok can you please explain to me why South-West results came out faster than Southeast which is about half the land mass and population of SW?Can you also tell me why there was no video coverage of the elections in SE?

I pray the judiciary do their work and I will be vindicated soonest.

@topic.Earlier yesterday I thought he could be trusted but with what happened in my state I doubt his sincerity.There will be crisis if these things are not addressed as soon as possible.

Stand up & be counted!!

Please go out and vote on Saturday, April 16, 2011.

PDP does not have absolute majority in the National Assembly, so even if Jonathan nominates them, it up to the National Assembly to accept them or not.

That is the beauty of free and fair election, the will of the people will reign even at the national assembly. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has changed Nigeria forever simply by allowing INEC do her job without undue interference. Goodluck has changed PDP forever,  strategically isolating the bad eggs for the people to deal with.

GEJ is simply a breath of fresh air.

Vote whom you like, GEJ is not desperate for power, that is why I will vote for him.
Re: Jonathan Has Shown He Can Be Trusted! So He Still Gets My Vote by Nobody: 2:32pm On Apr 11, 2011
If we have learnt any lessons in these past few years it is the following: A politician left on his own will use power to his advantage.

President GEJ can, after a successful conduct of the next two elections, rightly claim a legacy of free and fair elections under his watch. However, that is where his self-back-slapping should stop. We must not forget that, but for the sake of having another opportunity to do it again the election was a failure on April 2nd. If that date had been April 28 - the last day for elections allowed by the constitution - we 'll be in the middle of a serious constitutional crisis right now.

It is understandable that people would like to use this to further GEJ's campaign - it is what you are supposed to do - but they must also realize that Nigerians are going to be nobody's fool anymore. The totality of the current election's success is attributable to many factors each equally important like the stands of a three-legged stool:
1) Perhaps the most important, Nigerians have had enough of PDP's shenanigans and had the elections under close watch;
2) Jega finally got his acts together;
3) Emergence of two strong oppositions parties to keep PDP honest;
4) In-fighting within PDP; and
5) President GEJ has a good attitude to the elections - he is willing to play a little dirty politics, but he would not go as far as engage in outright vote stealing on behalf of his party (and we hope not next Saturday either) like OBJ, Atiku, et al . That attitude is very important, but without the others I bet if GEJ doesn't personally authorize vote-stealing, his party agents will do it freely and he would not refuse to be a beneficiary of the outcome.

Win or lose, with a credible election President GEJ would become an important force on the Nigerian landscape for a long time to come. However, winning through a fraudulent election would cause all hell to break loose

why are you repeating the obvious. GEJ has promised free and fair election and he has delivered. what do you want again. give the guy his credit and stop hating. Buhari didnt even have a plan back to democracy after 20 months in office. Tinubu couldnt even conduct free and fair elections in his party. haba. sai Goodluck. sai Nigeria!
Re: Jonathan Has Shown He Can Be Trusted! So He Still Gets My Vote by Orikinla(m): 3:40pm On Apr 11, 2011
Anyone who says or thinks President Goodluck Jonathan is trustworthy is of course an ignorant fool. The National Assembly Elections of last Saturday were not free and fair in many wards in majority of the states, including wards in Lagos State. Many voters were intimidated and others were bribed and the results were manipulated. The fact is, majority of Nigerians are shamelessly corrupt and remain the laughing stock of civilized nations. You people are just a joke and a mockery of democracy. What happened to the defunct NPN is what will happen to the PDP.

How many places did they  monitor? Were they in the creeks of the Niger Delta?  Did they see the chief in Itire-Mushin who brandished a gun to intimidate voters? Did they witness the murder of people in Imo State? Did they know that the CP even warned Governor Ohakim for going round polling centres to intimidate voters. You have not heard the last of the elections of last Saturday.
