Nigeria should delay elections planned for next month to give organisers more time to distribute millions of biometric ID cards to voters, the National Security Adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan said on Thursday. Reuters reports Sambo Dasuki said during a talk at London think-tank Chatham House that he had discussed the matter with the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and had said a delay within the time allowed by the law would be a good idea. “That is what we are encouraging at the moment,” he said. The elections will be the first where voters have to have a biometric card, introduced to guard against fraud that has plagued past polls. Dasuki said INEC had distributed 30 million cards in the past year but had another 30 million to hand out. He said INEC had assured him it would achieve this in time for the February date, but he thought it would make more sense to take more time. He added that there was a 90-day window during which the election could legally take place. “It costs you nothing, it’s still within the law,” Dasuki said he had told the INEC chairman. Dasuki said it was for INEC and not for him to decide. “What sense does it make to vote three months early when there are 30 million cards still with INEC? That’s my position,” Dasuki said. “Why are they not ready? Why should we postpone? We say ‘no’ to postponement,” Lai Mohammed, spokesman of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), told Reuters. “They know that if they don’t postpone they can’t win. They are just terrified.” INEC spokesman Kayode Idowu said there were currently no plans to delay. “It is not a conversation of the commission’s at all. As far as we are talking now, the date is what it is,” Idowu said. |

Nigerian Breaking News wrote: 2015 REVEALED: Jonathan, PDP embark on election extension campaign, bribe TV stations, newspapers houses to support plan Jonathan and the PDP have perfected plans to shift the February polls for another three months. The Monitors gathered from a reliable source that due to daily security reports received by President Jonathan that he will lose the forthcoming election woefully, the only option left is to shift the elections for three months in the first instance and for another three months in the second instance. The security reports which are not favourable to Jonathan are daily getting worse for the President as the Buhari tsunami rages daily. With what is on ground now, it is clear that Jonathan will lose to Buhari with a wide margin! This is why the PDP hawks came up with series of plans to stop the election and push for an interim government. The first of the plans is to hide under insurgency and the fact that Nigeria is at war to shift the elections. But INEC did not agree with this position as it told Nigerians about its readiness to conduct the elections. According to INEC, both sensitive and non - sensitive materials are ready. Also about 70% of voters have collected their PVCs. The second plan is the DSS unwarranted invasion of the APC Data centre with the allegation that APC has hacked into INEC database but later told Nigerians that APC was trying to clone Permanent Voters Cards (PVC cards) without evidence to back up the accusation. The actual plan of the DSS which failed was to accuse APC of hacking into INEC database and that this had destroyed the database as a result of which elections shall be postponed. This option also failed as INEC did not complain that its database was hacked into by the APC or any other organisation! The third option is to start aggressive campaign about the "Buhari's no certificate issue". The PDP started shouting on the rooftops that Buhari has no certificate but INEC did not agree with them. When the PDP would not stop pestering INEC over the certificate issue, PDP was advised to go to court but up till today, the PDP has not gone to court! Meanwhile, the Military institution which Buhari attended in tthe USA (United States War College) confirmed in writing that the certificate Buhari obtained from them is equivalent to Masters Degree. That put paid to the "Buhari no certificate campaign". So the third plan also failed. Fourthly, they moved to the fake health record and false report of Buhari's ill health. PDP and its handlers circulated a forged health report that Buhari has prostrate cancer and that he has been flown out to the USA for an undisclosed ailment. Buhari himself debunked this report and continued with his campaign in two states that he was scheduled to visit on that day. The fifth and the latest plot to shift the elections is by using certain TV Houses to invite speakers to their stations to start arguing in favour of election postponement. In this plot, AIT owned by PDP chieftain Dokpesi), NTA, Silverbird and (STV, owned by Ben Bruce, PDP Senatorial Candidate in Bayelsa State) got N1billion each for this purpose. The Monitors got this information two days ago and it was confirmed on AIT Kakaaki this morning when four guests were invited to the station to start arguing in favour of election postponement. The guests were, former Labour Party Chairman, Dan Anyanwu, Tanko Yinusa from Kaduna State, Alhaj. Shehu Musa former Chief of Staff to Bauchi Governor and Mr. Yinka Odumakin. They argued in favour of election postponement as predicted. This is a frightening scenario that constitutes clear and present danger. This is a serious threat to the 2015 elections. We call on all Nigerians of goodwill, civil society coalitions, pressure groups and the International Community to rise up and ask Jonathan to start telling Nigerians how he will hand over power. From the look of things, Jonathan is not ready to relinquish power even if he loses in February. He needs to be given the Burkina Faso treatment! 4 Likes |

Hmmn! I smell fish here. The allegation by the APC is turning out to be true. He made this statement clear on Thursday in a discourse at London think-thank Chatham House. He said it will be advantageous if the election was to be postponed. He said, “That is what we are encouraging at the moment.” http://www.channelstv.com/2015/01/22/nsa-advices-inec-to-postpone-2015-elections/ According to tweets by the Chatham House Africa Programme in London, monitored by Channels TV, the NSA also assured that the missing Chibok girls will soon be located with the help of the international community, particularly from the French, British, Americans and Chadians.What is this? Thought our military said they had located the girls long ago? 3 Likes |

JONATHAN EBELE AZIKIWE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS : * In 2008 when Obasanjo picked you to be Yaradua's running mate who were the people that first kicked against your candidacy? The Ijaws did. Their reason was that the 2 years as governor in Bayelsa you did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Till date, your erra is still termed the worst in Bayelsa. * Why did Obasanjo find it difficult to sell you to his allies and PDP as Yaradua's running mate? You Jonathan had a case with EFCC has documents proved you embezzled N9,000,000,000 (NINE BILLION NAIRA) while your wife Patience laundered $4,000,000 (FOUR MILLION DOLLARS) all these within two years. * Ebele, who was your biggest opposition in becoming Yaradua's running mate? The answer is EDWIN CLARK. The man who today is your mouth piece and who is pretending loves you the most. * Azikiwe, amongst other tricks, what did you do to gather public sympathy? You Mr Deceitful sent people to blow up part of your house in Bayelsa to make it look like it was your political opponents. The SSS released a report which you guys later hid to debunk your dubious claim. * Jonathan, when Yaradua made you to be in charge of negotiations with the Niger Delta Militants, who were those who objected and what was their reasons? Asari, Tompolo, and Boyloaf. Their reason being that you are not sincere in the Niger Delta course but only after your pocket. SHOULD I GO ON? * What was your agreement with PDP regarding a 2nd term. You promised and even swore you will go for a SINGLE TERM *Why did you jail James Ibori and forced Aoandoka to go underground? To revenge their utmost loyalty to the late Yaradua . * Did you fulfill your agreement to Tinubu and others even when they had to betray their party at that last minute in order to canvass for you. ABSOLUTELY NO. * How did you try to mock and tarnish Obasanjo? You didn't only remove all his loyalist from your government, you also made sure you made his enemies your closest allies. You don't need me to start calling names right? * Who is Jonathan's BIGGEEST Northern Ally? Alli Modu Sherrif. The CHIEF SPONSOR OF BOKO HARAM. AWAY FROM POLITICS. * You promised Nigerians incentives in order to remove subsidy. Things like stable power, metro buses (in Lagos and Abuja), full road rehabilitation etc. MR LIAR WHERE ARE THEY. * Obasanjo's government brought GSM amongst other things, Yaradua's short time in government brought RULE OF LAW. Jonathan what has yours brought? NOTHING EXCEPT INCREASE IN CORRUPTION. * Never in the history of Nigeria has all institutions witnessed as much strike as yours. *Jonathan WHERE ARE THE CHIBOK GIRLS. * Jonathan what in Heaven's name do you need FIVE presidential jet for even with the high rate of poverty in the land. * Ebele, the ONLY Nigerian president that tried all means to DIVIDE Nigeria along Religion and Ethnic line. * The ONLY AFRICAN PRESIDENT THAT OPENLY CELEBRATES CRIMINALS AND EX CONVICTS. Kashamu, Alameisia (or whatever), Bode George. * Jonathan will rather gallivant with Nollywood stars than have a session with those brains who are truly making Nigerians proud both Home and Abroad. Or better Still, compose a comforting message to the people of North East. Nigeria as at today HAS NO GOVERNMENT. We provide our water - borehole. We provide our light - generator/ inverter We provide our security - high fence/ cctv We provide our education - private school. We produce fuel yet pay the most in the world. We have no motorable federal road. A BIG SHAME NIGERIA HAS NO NATIONAL CARRIER. HIGH Uneployment in the land. High rate of Corruption (the CLOWN wants to curb corruption with technology). JONATHAN YOU ARE A FAILURE!!! Even if WE give you 10 terms ( 40 YEARS). YOU WILL STILL NOT TAKE US TO THE PROMISE LAND 1 Like |

New National PLEDGE: I pledge to God and to Nigeria my country. To be praying, working and vote wisely. To oppose the clueless and shoeless man, who said 16 is greater than 19. To vote out the man that said stealing is not corruption. To oppose the man who has drained all Nigeria's foreign and local reserves and incurred massive debts. And, with my vote, to punish the man who was dancing around while boko harams were killing our Nigerian brothers and sisters and to say NO to the man who cares less about the missing chilbok schools girls. To send him out of Aso Rock this 2015. To restore our Nigeria & Nigerians long lost honour and glory. So help me God.'' |
