Only an ignorant Arrow would do what you did and are doing now . . . What do you think, should we change the dictionary on your behalf?

Worse, your act there is somewhat cowardly by every measure. If ONE or FIFTY persons pis* you off, it is NO LICENCE for you to then go out and ATTACK EVERYONE. If you cannot stand and FIGHT for yourself at the point, then it's best you learn to let go.

Breaking news, the political "Abuja" cabal are busy secretly allocating ministrial slots as compensation.
They (political leaders) know how to reconcile, we (the Nigerian masses) are only wasting our time attacking one another following the line of region/tribe/religion, ponder!!!

KoboJ are you admitting that your BB Failed or more kindly Lost?. I guess him lossing out massively in the SW is an eye opener; Truly feel sorry for BB fans Buhari's rigidity cost him. FFS what was required was just a sacrifice of a VP post that is mainly ceremonial as long as the President is not invalid. A simple televised press announcement with ACN leadership and stating that they are going into alliance,and if they win their current VP candidate will resign and buhari will choose 1 of the 3 candidates presented to him by ACN of which Tinubu is none. End of Story. Nope he wanted something for nothing;especially after seeing the result of last week; which was an eye opener to all 3 leading parties; prompting Jonathan to send emisarries to ACN; whilst Buhari did same with meeting IBB; Atiku and Gasau. Atleast most nigerians can say we had an election and not a selection as previous occassions.

Ofcourse, It doesnt require a genius to figure that out. The SW was the key in this election; Buhari had North Jonathan south; SS + SE. Leaving out SW with lagos having the largest vote and the ACN lamblasting Buhari for the failure of the Alliance did not endear him to the ACN faithfuls that bothered to go out and vote. All Jonathan could have asked Tinubu was for ACN to stay neutral. As ACN will never publicly align with PDP.
Re: Would Gej Be Showing Signs of Victory Without The Sw Votes? by sbeezy8: 10:17pm On Apr 17, 2011
^^^ true @ All Jonathan could have asked Tinubu was for ACN to stay neutral

70-80% of registerd voters didnt vote from the numbers

in Lagos alone about 4.7 million out of 6 million didnt vote for gej.

says alot!

Your freedom of speech doesnt give you the license to be irresponsible in speech and actions.

These yoruba peeps never fail to amaze me,when ohanaeze endorsed GEJ,they all said we are foolish,they called Gej odechukwu,they were busy romancing with buhari and ribadu.

Anyway,everybody wants to identify with sucess,GEJ said that he is one of us(ndiigbo),lets but that to test and see how wise the elders(ohaneze) were,a wise man says: do not put your eggs in one basket,but a wiser man says:put you eggs in one basket and watch the basket.

I love the way the Yoruba's switch tongues, its almost as though its an ethnic gift! @ first they despised,hated and even detested GEJ, They vowed not to vote him in calling him a puppet and all sorts of names, but as soon as they noticed things did not go as planned during the polls, all these threads and post asking "these" questions about the SW started emerging from thin air. The way I see it based on where I voted, Most, if not all the people who voted GEJ, where non-SW'ners and YES! I reside in Lagos.
Re: Would Gej Be Showing Signs of Victory Without The Sw Votes? by aletheia(m): 11:25pm On Apr 17, 2011
Actually. . .it is an exaggeration to say the SW won it for GEJ. Votes received for GEJ in the SW:

Lagos 1,281,688
Ogun 309,177
Oyo 484,758
Osun 188,409
Ondo 387,376
Ekiti 135,009

Total votes for GEJ from SW = 2,786,417, just 12.7% of the total 21,876,777 declared so far. He only needed the 25% requirement from the SW. He could have won it without the SW.

i dont know anyone that despised hated GEJ, it was pdp/obj.

as for where you voted i dont see whats more interesting the 1.2 milli who voted for GEJ or the voting power of the 4.7 million in lagos who didnt vote for GEJ and the 11-12 million in the SW who did not vote for GEJ.

In a way, the Yorubas won it for him. Not even half of the Yoruba registered voters showed up. . . .  prolly not interested in the candidates (corrupt candidates). If 1/2 of the SW nation had bothered and voted for any other than GEJ, GEJ would not have won.

No rigging has been declared by Non-SWestern nation yet. Which is something to observe closely.

Actually the best way to consider how the SW helped him is not to look at the fraction of votes they contributed to the total given that regions do not have equal distribution of voters. You look more to the number of states where he was able to gather the at least 25% necessary to win. T[b]he SW gave him more of the those than the north did despite the fact that No SWesterner was on his ticket. [/b]

That said, the North needs to be commended for stepping out of their comfort zone to vote a man of a different religion and ethnicity than theres. In many of the states up North, PDP was neck and neck with CPC, as against the almost 100% voting pattern experienced in much of the SE/SS.

Exactly.
As long as the SWesterners have proven to be less tribalistic. . . . the number of voters matters not.

But I hope someone addresses the issue of the low voters.
