No Need For Sovereign National Conference – Gej by mukina2: 11:46am On Feb 16, 2012 |
President Goodluck Jonathan, on Wednesday, foreclosed the idea of convening a Sovereign National Conference, stating that the Presidential Committee on Outstanding Constitutional Issues, headed by Justice Alfa Belgore, was set up to handle defects in the current 1999 Constitution. http://dailytimes.com.ng/article/%E2%80%98no-need-sovereign-national-conference%E2%80%99-%E2%80%93-jonathan |

We all already know he is a 'Puppet President' controlled by puppet masters with strings. . . His kinsmen meanwhile continue their clamour for true federalism SMH |

How logical is it for him to support it as the president. U all his haters have been waiting for him to support it so that u can accuse him of disintegrating Nigeria. ozu nwa bekee, ebulie unu elu, no, no no no, ebutue unu ala- no, no, no, no. |

The President pointed out that, for example, the House of Representatives probe into the oil subsidy regime had exposed the fact that continued subsidy in the petroleum sector was a catalyst to corruption. Jona think say him get skill (ogiri-gba-'mi-la). . . not in 2012. The House probe rather shows GEJ's administration involvement and /or inadequacies |

hehehehe We shouldn't be a bit surprised. GEJ wants to keep his job and he knows that as soon as NASS believes that he is serious about convening SNC, they will definitely impeach the President. No one relinquishes power voluntarily. 1 Like |

GEJ may not support SNC for now. But be rest assured that as soon as he steps down as president, that would be is primary and only agenda. Then he would realize that he wasted a clear chance of writing his name in the history books of "positive achievers" God bless Naija. |

before I start, let me say I AM NOT A GEJ PRAISE SINGER/SYMPATHIZER I have watched in total dismay, the rate at which this site has turned into a tribal war site due to the rising belief among Nigerians that a split up of Nigeria will automatically solve Nigeria's problems. My dear brothers and sisters, this belief, I must say, is a lie directly from the pit of hell! Oh! so you guys think that spliting Nigeria will save you from boko haram huh? Well, I have news for you, Nigeria will keep spiliting into many tiny countries as long as the root of our problems remain in tact because we will still be stuck with the same evil breed of politicians who wll continue to sponsor more groups like they have been doing with MEND, boko haram, OPC, etc. More groups will continue to spring up from no where in our new countries! cant you guys see that!!!! Cant you see that the real problem with Nigeria is LACK OF LOVE for one another and PRIDE? Let me break it down, look at the west, let's pick lagos as a case study. We have the Ijebus and Aworis at each others throats on the issue of who the real settlers are. Imagine Nigeria breaking up, wont these groups also fight for who should govern over them? Would an Ijebu man vote for an Awori man for president? Let's look at the Niger delta region, we are all aware of the age old beef btw the ijaws and the Itshekiris. How would they cope with leadership if that region becomes a country? In my state, the three ethic groups hardly see eye to eye. Imagine Akwa-Ibom and Cross-River as one state, the Oron and Calabar people will never be comfortable with the Ibibios ruling them. We will be back to that 'zoning' crap. Look at the recent tribal clashes in Ebonyi state. Na boko haram cause am? Think guys! dont allow the devil make us think that breaking up a family will solve its problems. look at India, it broke into pakistan, then bangladesh. Are they now living happily? tell me! Look at Sudan, south sudan has been crying for 'independence from the northern part. now they have it. But guess what? Thousands have fleed south sudan due to fresh crisis in south sudan! yeah yeah, I know it has worked for some other countries but how are we so sure it will work for us? I STRONGLY believe it will not because of the nature of the root of our problems Let us love and respect each other's tribes, languages, cultures, and religion. That is the ONLY thing that can bring lasting solution to our problems! Where there is love and respect, people will start considering others in whatever they do or say. when this happens, corruption will die a slow but steady death which will then pave way for better governance. Look at the U.S.A, if there is any country in the world that should be having 'tribal' problems, it should be America because she has an assortment of not just different RACES but also different NATIONS from all over the world. there are also different religions such as Christianity, islam, Jewism, Hindu, etc. This is because there are African Americans, Asian Americans, European Americans, etc. But do you see a New Yorker thinking that a Texan cannot 'rule' him? Hell No! Why? Because although they may use different platforms, Americans generally speak up with ONE voice! they are together, they are united. do a research and you will see that is why they are still the most powerful country in the world. Think about it guys! My instinct tells me that breaking up Nigeria will be one of the biggest mistakes ever made in history, and believe me, its almost always correct! 1 Like |

No sitting president will support it. So it is no News. It is the citizens that will push for it. Funny for the article to use the word 'foreclose'. Nigerian journalists and their choice of words. You ain't seen nothing yet. By the time it starts, even the president will be begging Nigerians for dialogue. Nigerians take your destiny in your hands. Occupy Senate, HOR, Aso Rock,etc, now. |

Re: No Need For Sovereign National Conference – Gej by alahamad(m): 2:09pm On Feb 16, 2012 |
I really dont blame the stupid President. i blame all those who voted him in and believed in him, the fuel subsidy probe is nothing but a distraction cos we all know that nothing will be done to all those thieves. cos if the house of assembly can borrow money from the bank, shared within themselves and the court says it within their 989900:powers to do that then how do ya'll expect the president to support true federalism. I hate what boko haram has been doing especially to my home-town{Kano}, but honestly, i think BH should penetrate politicians and make it clear that any politician who doesn't account for his/her deeds in office on a credibility lane, should be bombed to hell, that might bring some sense of transparency into their useless brains. |

Re: No Need For Sovereign National Conference – Gej by Willy7(m): 2:40pm On Feb 16, 2012 |
As a sitting president u dnt expect him to support or champion such an idea,cos of their imaginary threat to their power and seats.I said imaginary because i dnt see how an SNC will disintegrate d country.Its just a platform for discussion,where every ethnic group and people will be represented to air their minds and chat a way forward,cos i cnt be walking in d north and lookn over my shoulders while abokis feel safe and secured in my teritory.Its not done anywhere.Lets call a spade a spade.The madness has got to stop.As for d disintegration of Nigeria,i dnt see what will stop it if God so will.So whether SNC or not,Nigeria's future will be decided one day.I just pray that we find a peaceful solution to our problems.God bless us all |
Re: No Need For Sovereign National Conference – Gej by Demdem(m): 2:46pm On Feb 16, 2012 |
its wrong for peeps to say that SNC basically means breaking this nation. it isnt so. we basically want to restructure this entity called Nigeria and determine on what basis and grounds we all want to be governed. The NASS cant do this. |
