honestly,didn't expect that from hbg.Seriously gonna write off a belief because of the vices of some its practitioners or worse still because its not yours?? whatever happened to tolerance?

Trust me, I have tolerated more than you can ever tolerate. Its written in arabic, the holy quran, there's nothing peaceful about islam. I don't hate anybody and I sure tolerate everyone or I would have been isolated in my house locked because I hate others who have different opinions when it comes to religion. I just hate the hypocrisy behind it all.

HumbledbYGrace:
@ bolded, that said why are you voting him What good can he do? Islam is not just a religion, go and do your research. This isn't just about politics, I wish people would listen sha.

#case closed.

#case reopened, i'm voting him cos i desire change and a president that can take firm decisions,not a clueless one. He's a firm man,stop making mountains out of hills...islamization of the nation is a no-go-area

Is Goodluck Jonathan a Christian?
Who is a Christian?
Is it right for Christians to show so much angst at a man who they fear might seize their right to believe, yet support a man under whom over 250 girls were kidnapped for months yet has shown no sign of concern?
What role should the Christian play in politics, leadership and nation building?

Maybe, y'all should dwell on those questions a little bit. If you can, apply sound reasoning devoid of sentiments. Above all, let love and truth guide you.

Isn't Fashola a muslim? He is the governor of Lagos state and yet, he did far better than any christian governor of the state.

Even in the bible, Ceasar was not a christian or jew.

I understand that we christians have to be careful with islamists who want to impose sharia law but not all muslims are islamists. Also, it is impossible to islamize the whole of Nigeria.

This is something some christians don't understand. How possible do they think it is to islamize Nigeria?. Even if Buhari wants to, do they really think CAN would allow him? When he was military H.O.S he had all the power and impetus to do that but he didn't.

I believe some christians are just using this 'islamization of Nigeria' is to paint Buhari black.

My take about this issue; it's obvious that GEJ & GMB are two evils.
Why are Nigerians being dumb and myopic.
Imagine someone saying that he'd choose the lesser evil.

GEJ- He's clueless and incompetent and i'll never vote him.

GMB- APC is a fraud party selling fraudlent idea to us. There pseudo-change is arrant nonsense. If you believe so much in change, there are many Northern islamic politicians who would do that, not Buhari. Aren't we leaders of tomorrow? He once failed and you're still rooting for him.

QUESTION FOR THE DAY- Is Buhari and Jonathan the only aspirants vying for the presidential seat? Isn't it high time we started seeing beyond PDP and APC gibberish.

Lord have mercy- We are our own problem....

However, we have a choice between an incompetent GEJ and an illiterate Byhari

That's the truth, and it's not about hate. Nothing peaceful about Islam. The problem is Islam and not Muslims. And the hypocrisy can not be hidden!

Interestingly, That's what I was discussing with someone, are there no other parties apart from apc and pdp? Are we saying that there are no other credible individual in other parties?

Nigerians will keep living in their self-stupidity until they change...
The change isn't held by any man, but it's within us.

I have been reading your posts and from it, I see that you are generalising a lot.


You too are a Nigerian. You are not the only one that wants better candidates or even a 3rd party solution

Yes, I'm generalising because i'm also guilty.

Comes febuary14th, I won't vote because you can't just tell a man like me to choose lesser evil.

For what? Who want an evil....

A flash of what i saw this morning made me come here to write this.
I usually follow nairaland from time to time because i have had my own very tough spiritual challenges and God saw me through it all.
Not more than five days ago, i wanted to study the word and after praying that God should lead me where to read and where i was led to was Mark 13 from vs 14-27. It was talking about the awful horror that would take place. Unlike me i said some prayer concerning that event.
Fast forward to this morning around some minutes to 8 in the morning, i was half awake half asleep and the flash came just like a dream i was hearing shouts as if it was from afar and then it was coming closer then i started seeing flying objects bigger than planes like all these flying objects that aliens use to fly to earth in all these movies flying all over, there where giant beings that where not human walking around, there was destruction everywhere, i panicked but then i remembered what i read from the Bible which was for everyone to remain where they were. I was sitting on a couch, i just held the person next to me and started singing praises and everything vanished.
All these took place in less than 3 minutes, i jumped up from my bed and had to look for a way to share.
I do not know when this will happen but i just want to use this medium to tell all those waiting on the Lord that are getting weary to stand firm because he is coming soon and for unbelievers to please repent and be prepared for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ because he is coming soon.
Please if you can share with your family and friends. Thank you.

Exactly, That's what we don't know, we are the change Nigeria needs!

HumbledbYGrace:
you keep at that because he isn't yet your president.

No, he cannot. My only concern is that he is dumber than Jonathan.

Where is that muskeeto of a boy who always shares a testament of an unfit man? The way these two men are promoted you'd think they possess twice the IQ of every Nigerian.

Goodluck is dumb but Buhari is dumber. A battle of the dumb and dumber and the dumbest whose memories have become history.

Muskeeto come here.

This reminds of an American presidential hopeful...John F. Kennedy was Catholic. The opposition continuously put out propaganda that if he were elected, the Catholic Church would be running our country.

He was elected, and as it turns out, he was a major force for good. He was pivotal in affecting policies that changed the social, economic and military climate of America for the better.

- Leadership is more than just intellect.
- It would be impossible to convince me that a man who has kept up with Apc's campaign schedule is not healthy.
That being said, please trace Goodluck Jonathan's political history from the swamps of Otueke to the glamor of Aso Rock and present whatever he has done that would be described as his legacy. If the SE and the SS are made soveriegn regions today, would GEJ be considered a fit to rule those nations? Jonathan has nothing to offer and never will.
Has the Niger Delta benefitted from his presidency? Why hasn't Jonathan been unable to break this 'image' of being a Southern president rather than a 'Nigerian' one?
Jonathan has failed as leader on all counts. And he has enough time to prove those who question his leadership abilities wrong. And he failed. Woefully.


That being said, is Buhari a better choice? What does Buhari have to offer? Honestly, I can't say. I was a registered member of CPC during the last elections. After the merger, I hoped that APC wouldn't pick Buhari as candidate. I still believe that the APC had a lot of better candidates to pick from. But the delegates voted and made their choice. So no need crying over spilt milk.
Does APC represent change? Oh yes, they do. In the sense that those who have access to our nation's funds and have been responsible for implementing failed policies might be kicked out of their positions and replaced by other untested hands. Let us see what they have to offer.

A vote for GEJ is a vote for Asari Dokubo, Alameiseigha, Bode George, Fayose, Ali Modu Sheriff. A vote for GEJ is approval of beyond mediocre performance. A vote for GEJ would be akin to signing the death of warrant of our dear nation. A vote for GEJ is a vote for those who raised 21billion for GEJ. They would want their money back after the elections. And that cash will come from our already empty pockets.
A vote for GEJ would be standing on the side of Boko Haram, a signal that we support that the man who has been unable to stop them.
A vote for GEJ would be an insult to the over 200 girls, fellow Nigerians, still missing. Probably raped. Or even better dead.

Anyone but GEJ would do for me. For those who ask if we do not have any choice, I wish we did. The truth is politics is about money and numbers. These two parties command both in large quantity. You'd be foolish, or maybe even psychotic, to think of running against them. That is the truth. Some of those individual runnig against them are probably in it to improve their CV, just like Dele Momodu in 2011.
