We probably have more churches than policemen in Nigeria. How can GEJ possibly secure every church?

zebudaya:

Yeah yeah talk is cheap. We are going to blame Goodluck until he delivers results. We know the government is inefficient. Boko Haram is not a North Vs. South issue. I guess you are a PDP PR person. How much do they pay you to sell your soul?

pedestal82:

1. No notable muslim cleric,or politician has come out to denounce these act by boko haram.

2. where are the northan leaders that comment on wrong policies of Jonathan, like Atiku, Buhari, IBB. have they condemnd these acts.

3. I stay in the north, been a southerner. this ppl are playing a script, and these are the questions they want us to be asking. did we make a mistake by electing Jonathan? 4.by next election we will all be afraid to vote a southerner because we want peace, we are always afraid of violence. you guys needed to see how this ppl took this Buhari s election,then u will understand.

[b]My Friend, I refuse to come to Nairaland and bicker with people like you who don't know that the world is watching them here. People were killled and decapitated, we all with heavy hearts are here to offer solution and share ideas and what people like you knows to do is insult people shamelessly.

This generation of spineless young men that can't arise to situations and only hide behind their computer to insult decent ladies, give me back Ojukwu again and again----I respect men like him who does not keep silent in the face of tyranny not mouthy/spineless ones that shoot off their wide mouth here.

Right now my heart is so heavy that I don't freaking care who is the president of Nigeria much more laundering his linens as a PR, we are trying to reason wisely here so cut that crap about PR and soul selling because if you even have a soul you won't be talking to ladies like that. There is nothing anybody does in Nigeria that people like you won't be mouthing off at. Several months ago GEJ was being insulted that he isn't curbing this----several days ago it was in the news that his army went to the threshold of BH and fought them, many of you came here to shout---What has GEJ done-o-o?,It wasn't right to use force on BH lest they get more violent!, GEJ shouldn't have done that? and on and on and on. So here we are ----offer your solution on what GEJ should do, you cannot all your brain can manufacture is insult.
See how the Boko Haram bastards have most of you on a chess table and playing with your heads, they have you where they want you to be: Fearful, unsettled and blaming the government. Look beyond that and open your eyes young man and think about the part you can play as a man to stop this not to be shooting off mouth behind some laptops. Mtscheeew. Please my heart is very heavy right now, don't upset me my friend.[/b]

I just hate it when people like you make this a North vs South issue. And say stuff like oh the southerners are going separate and take their oil,  Don't blame Johnathan etc. The bombs are going off in Northern territory. The people are suffering. You think the majority are happy about it and support it? Riddle me that.

I'm guessing you are Igbo since you mentioned Ojukwu. There has been a spate of kidnappings in the south east. You think the people are happy about it and are supporters of kidnappers? If your answer is No, then apply it to the North.

Johnathan as Commander-in-Chief is to be blamed. It's not a North vs South issue. If he can't hire the right people in our spy agencies to combat Boko Haram, and if he can't make the right moves he should quit, and not just continue to embezzle our money without giving results. The fool made a statement "Boko Haram would end one day and would fizzle out". How is is going to fizzle without our government doing something and you say don't blame him? Sending the military to kill low level foot soldiers who are easily replaced is not a solution. We need spies to infiltrate Boko Haram. Up till today WE DO NOT know who they are.

Did Bush  keep quiet when Bin Laden brought down the towers? He told us who did it and demanded that Afghanistan should hand them over. He sent troops to Afghanistan and took the battle to them. Obama came in and continued the job. Up till today they have not prosecuted the folks who Bombed the Police headquarters or UN Headquarters or the Independence day celebrations or who keep killing policemen and bombing police stations. This is a symptom of extremely weak leadership and you say we should not blame Johnathan?
If I don't do my job well I would get fired. Why should he be treated differently?

I'm not interested in insulting you, but I won't ignore you when you post stuff that doesn't make sense just because you are lady. I'm a firm believer in equal rights . Read my signature below.

I just read Buhari's comment over the bombings in one of the dailies and the words he used to describe the govt is "Incompetent", exactly the picture the BH are trying to paint and drive home to us all the masses.
Nigerians were decapitated murdered with their flesh scattered all over the place, is this the right time to paint the govt as incompetent? Any well meaning Nigerian should be offering solution at this point not nagging and playing politics. I am not crazy about politics, I didn't vote GEJ in and I can't look at these dead people now and go shouting "GEJ is incompetent" instead I will think of ways to add my support to GEJ's govt so that this can stop and should I find GEJ incompetent, I will leave that for when GEJ tries to make a second run for presidency to say "No" to GEJ with my vote.

All these cries and nagging of GEJ, are you guys going to unseat him for Boko Haram to stop their acts? Perhaps if that is possible you may try that-----remove GEJ tonight and enthrone a northerner but know that the BHs may only get a bit assuaged.(Isn't that the picture they are painting?) The bombings may decrease but that will not make this go away. Something tells me that we are being manipulated by outside forces who are importing violence to our shores and dragging that avalanche of violence other parts of the world are experiencing to us.

Talking about making sense----- I don't know who is being sensible here, the person looking at solutions to problem or the person bemoaning and nagging the President? I don't want to be part of this argument, my friend. Like I said my heart bleeds for my country and the pains these deads went thru as well as the pains their families are going thru.
I am just looking at the Iraq Bombings today in CNN and my heart bleeds more with my hearts in my hands and fears of where my country is headed to if this is not nipped now. We need to do something about these before Nigeria becomes hell on earth. We are quietly drifting to a state where by we all will be cowering in our houses in fears with bombings and gruel sights of dead humans becoming nothing before our eyes because the picture of the gory sights of mangled flesh that I saw yesterday took something away from me. It took away some of my innocence, I have never seen such wickedness before. I truly feel for my country. The world is watching us here and now is not the time to bicker.

One_Naira:

GEJ has some blame concerning Boko Haram but the blame is not solely on him. It is easy to blame GEJ but for those doing that, you need to ask yourself, How come we did not have a Boko Haram problem during Yaradua, IBB, etc regime? This is nothing but a task to keep the power towards the North (The election riot anyone?), it does not take a genius to realize this. For years, the North pushed for a Sharia Law Nigeria but yet it is recent after the election of a christian they turned extremely violent for such cause. 

zebudaya:

You got your facts wrong. There has been a Boko Haram since 2002, The first group was violent but not sophisticated.[b] Yar adua and the Borno governor wiped them out and killed the leader. They went underground and have splintered. Now this is a much more dangerous faction carrying out the bombings. SSS has caught some of them with bombs only to release them back to local Imams and elders who promise to "reform their ways). [/b]These dudes then carry on bombing

Orikinla:

Those contesting the incompetence of the ruling PDP are suffering from ignorance of the facts since the PDP took over the reins of government in 1999 to date.

If only you knew what was going on in Bayelsa State when your GEJ was the governor.
Go and do your research before commenting.

I have worked at a senior level in a presidential campaign office of a leading Northern leader who is now one of the chieftains in the PDP and I even carried fire arm for self defence when I was not yet 28 before the June 12 crisis.
So, when some idiotic apologists come here posing and posturing as knowledgeable people, I only laugh at their stupidity.

If the Boko Haram is blowing up oil pipelines and disrupting their illegal oil bunkering industry and their oil and gas exports, GEJ and his government would have done more than giving excuses of gross administrative incompetence.
What nonsense.
