Tinubu's Gaffe Or A Mindset? by thelastPope(m): 11:39am On Mar 21, 2013
http://www.punchng.com/news/tinubu-backs-amnesty-for-boko-haram/


I am really disturbed by the Tinubu statement for the following reasons:

1. He called Boko Haram attack, minor crimes

2. He said some of them are innocent

3. He said they are "our own citizens"


1. He called Boko Haram attack, minor crimes
This one I cannot even phantom. Minor crimes? Killing of 60 people in a bus park is a minor crime? I dont even know what to say. The only thing I can get from that is that Tinubu has no human feeling. Totally insensitive! He obviously is a BH closet supporter and maybe even an indirect sponsor. He is campaigning with blood.

2. He said some of them are innocent
Again, where can I even begin to analyse this from. It is a contradiction of mega proportions. How can a member of a deadly terrorist group be innocent? Tinubu is obviuously still smoking that stuff. Even those who harbour BH members can not be said to be innocent. In fact, Tinubu's support for BH means he Tinubu is not innocent. This man is ridiculous

3. He said they are "our own citizens".

This was the very same kind of statement they went ranting on socia media about, when GEJ said BH are our brothers. I didnt like it when GEJ said it, though I knew he was just trying to be diplomatic. But the same Tinubu and his gang went around ranting that GEJ was clueless for calling BH our brothers. Now he is the one referring to them as our own citizens. How hypocritical can these people be?

And I will continue to ask: Why are ACN and CPC members calling for amnesty for a group they claim is PDP? Why do they want a largese for some group of people they claim are PDP members? Or are they telling us BH is PDP with Esau's voice and fuelling BH with Jacob's hairy hand? No wonder APC governors went to Borno and donated 200 million and 2 weeks later, BH makes a major statement. Is Tinubu and his gang looking for more funding for BH?

Is this really a gaffe or is it a deep mindset being unfolded?

Seriously, my colleague in the office today after reading about
the Tinubu's call for amnesty for Boko Haram told us that sooner or later all
these guys parading themselves as opposition should start apologising to the PDP
for past negative utterances. That they themselves are worst than PDP by miles.

Imagine Tinubu who could not contain simple Agberos in Lagos also opening his teeth.
Agberos ruled Lagos for 8 yrs that he was governor.

On your question, I actually don't think it's a mindset or conviction. I think he just goofed after
finding himself in northern Nigeria, thanks to the usual ACN's trick of playing to the
gallery and playing politics with everything.

Pastor Bakare has never regretted supporting Buhari neither has he stopped condeming GEJ insensitivity and incompetency - Go back and read the interview. He suffers no fool and consistently objective.

See, once Buhari emerges the Presidential candidate of APC you will see Pastor Bakare taking his rightful position in the full campaign against rots, madness, corruption and purposelessness being instituted by the GEJ-led Government. Buhari is the broom some of us are waiting for to clean the system. Its not going to be APC against them but all well-meaning Nigerians holding the Broom against Cankerworms and Scanvengers.

Continue directing your energy toward Tinubu who is enjoying his loot while your C-in-C is running your boat aground.

So this is how you want to sweep Nigeria clean? By bombing innocent people at bus stations?

No problem, keep doing it. Nemesis will soon catch up with you guys. Buhari is a small fry. He has been there before and we know how much of a coward he is. We saw it all. Why did his campaign not help CPC to win Abuja council polls? lol. The Christian population in the north is over 40% and they will never ever cast their vote for a terrorist like Buhari. Never!

Gaffe? My brother, even the Bible said "Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks". There goes your answers, if he can make these types of comments, then you should be prepared for what happens next if they become president. A man who's calling for amnesty to BH that killed and maimed many isn't worthy of my praise, he's a disgusting pile of trash. Calling this terror a "minor crime" goes to show you - that hidden agenda we often talked about is gradually being perfected. These are reasons why APC MUSTN'T SMELL ASO ROCK.

Soil his name? Does anyone need to soil his name? You definitely have your head in the mud!!!

He did a good job of that many years ago when he truncated our democracy and set us back 20 years. He was an idiotic coup plotter and a bloody coward hiding inside Tunde Idiagbon's armpit until Idiagbon went for hajj and he was thrown out without a single fight. !

He did a good job of that when he managed and squandered over 200 billion naira PTF funds is connivance with Abacha and to this day, there is not a single thing to show for it. No wonder he quickly exonerated Abacha and declared him corruption free. Talk about beds of the same feather?

He did a good job of that when, as a bigot, he asked Muslims to vote for only Muslims and didnt even care to campaign in the SS and SE.

He did a good job of that when he consistently supported and encouraged that pedophile Yerima to push his sharia agenda across northern Nigeria and those became the seeds for groups like BH which ironically started in a then ANPP state, Borno.

No one needs to soil his name. His name is deep in the mud as an un-electable serial looser who wants to be a democratic president by hook or crook and will offer up the lives of millions if need be to attain his satanic political ambition. Please spare us the garbage!

Your divisive method won’t work in 2015. President Jonathan used the same schism of Xtian vs Moslems in 2011 but guesses what people are wiser and see through his hypocrisy now.

The Christian population of the North is over 40 per cent (hilarious)? This was how you guys started this propaganda in 2011 for rigging plan and wasted many lives.
This was how you claimed Igbos are 60 per cent in Lagos, 45 per cent in Kano, bla bla percent everywhere.
Why would a popular President bank on Christian/Igbo votes alone? Because he has no qualities to market . The real terrorist is the one eating Billion Naira food, building 4 Billion Naira Women Centre, building 7 Billion Naira Gate when millions are dying everyday

You post like a kid in Alausa but I will respond to you.

The Christian population has always been about 40% in the north. That is a fact. The Hausa/Fulani has always lied about their population. It is only in Nigeria that you find figures stating that the desert lands are more populous than the coastline

A popular president will bank on Christian/Igbo/South south votes because the opposition is nothing but a grand plan to bring the imperialist Hausa/Fulani back to power. The only qualities these Hausa/Fulani imperialist have is the ability to take us down the path of backwardness. They took us there before so we will not allow them to take us there again, ever

The Hausa/Fulani in collabo with some traitors down south have been using the divisive method since independence. You are the bigots and imperialists and traitors.

Re: Tinubu's Gaffe Or A Mindset? by Emperor007: 4:45pm On Mar 21, 2013
.

To answer your question, Tinubu said what's in his mind for two reasons.

1. He's a Muslim and would continue to have sympathy for Boko Haram ( I.e if he's not one of their sponsors. SSS public relations officer Ogar confirmed today on Channel's that some people are actually paying huge money "about 380m NGN" paid into Boko Haram coffers)

2. His ACN is working round the clock with its northern blood party CPC to return power to the North, hence said it to consolidate this alliance.

You are a bloody liar Sir. I know all these postulates are to prepare grounds for rigging (as was done in 2011) to justify the numbers you plan to make-up but it won't be that funny in 2015.
Even if the North always lie about their population the number of registered voters 2011 is a fair represenation of the population.
See the facts and figures below as published by INEC 2011. The only Northern states with considerable number of Christians are Plateau, Benue, Nassarawa, Kwara and Taraba. Even at that it is difficult to say we have more Christians than Moslems in Taraba and Nassarawa States. So where is Mr. Igbo/Christian only President getting 40% Northern (Christian/Igbo) vote from. You plan to rig and cause havoc again? 40% Christain population but the carnage has always been one-way. If out of every 10 Northerners 4 are Christians how come Christians have always been at the recieving end?

You are the devisive bigots that see nothing good in anyone who is a Northerner/Moslem and you see SW people as traitors because they have refused to indulge in your biggotry.

You are not only a foool, you are also a traitor.

You have absolutely no clue about the north.

1. For you to say "The only Northern states with considerable number of Christians are Plateau, Benue, Nassarawa, Kwara and Taraba" shows you are a typical Lagos agbero who has not been past Ore or Shagamu.

Kaduna has more christians than muslims. That is why katsina was created. You cannot even find a mosque in most parts of southern kaduna. Niger has at least 35-40 percent Christians. Adamawa has about 50% christians. Even the hotbed Borno has a lot of Christians. You SW traitors will continue to join the core north to perpetuate lies about Nigeria's population because that is what you do. Traitor!

2. You say we are the bigots? So who were the bigots in 1960, in 1970, in 1980, 1990? Tell me who were the bigots that placed their tribemen in choice positions? Tell me, who were the bigots that took someone else oil and enriched themselves but never developed the land from which they had they ill gotten wealth and blood money? Tell me, who were the bigots that shared the oil wells among themselves? Tell me why every military coup always produced a Hausa/fulani president and a collaborating, sycophant SW second fiddle? so who are the bigots that have cornered all the jobs in the oil industry? Tell me, who are the bigot that said muslims should only vote for muslims? Tell me who are the bigots that hear a news story from CNN and go on rampage, destroying shops and beheading people from other tribes on the streets and hanging their head on the stake?

There is nothing good about the Hausa/Fulani imperialists who have ruled this country for over 40 years. They did nothing. They only stole and squandered the oil wealth and now, they want to come back again for part 2. They are jokers. scoundrels!

You have no clue what's coming. You think it will be like 2011 when you lot were registering underage voters and threatening everyone? YOu have no clue. Just keep ranting!

This country lacks politicians with integrity & principles. Most of them see politics as business. There are in politics to make money. They have nothing to offer the masses. They don't have value for human lives. Tinubu, the APC etc. are a big disappointment. Its obvious, the aim of the terrorist attacks in the North is to reduce the number of christians/southerners in the North for political reasons. The northerner elites/politicians had failed woefully to develop their people. Who is to blame for the nuisance caused by their unproductivity? Obviously, the country has no credible opposition. For now, it's better to stick with the the devil (GEJ) we know than the angels we don't know.

kinguwem: This country lacks politicians with integrity & principles. Most of them see politics as business. There are in politics to make money. They have nothing to offer the masses. They don't have value for human lives. Tinubu, the APC etc. are a big disappointmentIts obvious, the aim of the terrorist attacks in the North is to reduce the number of christians/southerners in the North for political reasons. The northerner elites/politicians had failed woefully to develop their people. Who is to blame for the nuisance caused by their unproductivity? Obviously, the country has no credible opposition. For now, it's better to stick with the the devil (GEJ) we know than the angels we don't know.

How sure are you about the sentence in bold

You are not only a foool, you are also a traitor.

You have absolutely no clue about the north.

1. For you to say "The only Northern states with considerable number of Christians are Plateau, Benue, Nassarawa, Kwara and Taraba" shows you are a typical Lagos agbero who has not been past Ore or Shagamu.

Kaduna has more christians than muslims. That is why katsina was created. You cannot even find a mosque in most parts of southern kaduna. Niger has at least 35-40 percent Christians. Adamawa has about 50% christians. Even the hotbed Borno has a lot of Christians. You SW traitors will continue to join the core north to perpetuate lies about Nigeria's population because that is what you do. Traitor!

2. You say we are the bigots? So who were the bigots in 1960, in 1970, in 1980, 1990? Tell me who were the bigots that placed their tribemen in choice positions? Tell me, who were the bigots that took someone else oil and enriched themselves but never developed the land from which they had they ill gotten wealth and blood money? Tell me, who were the bigots that shared the oil wells among themselves? Tell me why every military coup always produced a Hausa/fulani president and a collaborating, sycophant SW second fiddle? so who are the bigots that have cornered all the jobs in the oil industry? Tell me, who are the bigot that said muslims should only vote for muslims? Tell me who are the bigots that hear a news story from CNN and go on rampage, destroying shops and beheading people from other tribes on the streets and hanging their head on the stake?

There is nothing good about the Hausa/Fulani imperialists who have ruled this country for over 40 years. They did nothing. They only stole and squandered the oil wealth and now, they want to come back again for part 2. They are jokers. scoundrels!

You have no clue what's coming. You think it will be like 2011 when you lot were registering underage voters and threatening everyone? YOu have no clue. Just keep ranting!

You forgot to mention Kogi states where there are more christians than Muslims. That is why it's impossible 2 have both the Gov n d Deputy being muslims unlike in d case in states where muslims dominate like Borno,Katsina,Kano,Jigawa etc. Truth is core notherner i.e d Hausa/Fulani muslims will find it difficult 2 become president of dis country in d near future cos d BH madness has worsen their case...in fact going by d emerging political realities n dynamics, they r actually d minority now...d support of d so calld christian minorities in d north they use to take 4 granted has bn lost n this was evident in d result of 2011 election which GEJ won in many northern states. The earlier those who argue blindly wake up to this reality n toe the line of peace the better 4 them!

You have to show respect to this Tinubu of a guy cos he is a politician who understands the game. Listen to his statement carefully deviod of party affiliations and you notice the guy was being smart with his statement and leaves a backdoor for his defence in case it backfires. Tis all politics to ginger more support where he feels Gej and Pdp are losing it.tho non of Nigerian politicians inspire me but i must give credit to the ones that understands the game.

Bokoharam Is Fighting For Justice – Bamangar Tukur

National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, has said members of the Islamic sect, Boko Haram, are fighting for justice.

According to him, many Nigerians feel aggrieved and seek various means of airing their grievances.

Tukur, who spoke in Abuja on Tuesday when he received members of the party from Gombe State, said there must be justice in the country for peace to reign.

He however regretted that the activities of the sect were preventing some northerners from travelling to their home states.

Tukur said there was no way angry people would control their anger when there was nothing on their stomachs.

He said, “Let there be peace in the North so that we can have security.

“We can’t even travel again because of the insecurity in the region. Boko Haram is fighting for justice. Boko Haram is another name for justice.

“People feel aggrieved. They are angry because they are hungry. Unless we remove the hunger, we too may not be able to rest.

“We should remember that a child who says his mother would not sleep will also not sleep.”

The former governor of old Gongola State said he accepted to be honoured by the members of the party from the North-East on Saturday in his village because he wanted people know that things were not working well with the people in rural areas.

He said, “People would be wondering why I took the reception to my village in Jada. And they would be asking why not a place like Abuja, where we have good roads and all that.

“I did so, so that people would know what is happening in rural areas. Those that were there must have seen the bad roads. We must help people who cannot help themselves.

“That is why we are in government. You cannot do anything unless you are committed to it. We must build this party on equity and justice.”

Earlier, Gombe State Governor Ibrahim Dankwanbo, who led the delegation said the members came to show their loyalty to the leadership of the party.

I have to correct you a bit, Taraba has about 70% Christians, Adamawa has about 60% (in my office in we had like 20% Muslims and 80% Christians in the state capital! It was like that in many offices and tertiary institutions i visited), and the entire population of Adamawa state may not be up to 1.2 million. Gombe, Yobe and Borno are not different. Don't mind those talking trash and they haven't traveled anywhere! Actually, it is the NORTH THAT FALSIFIES FIGURES for 3 reasons:

1. Federal allocation. They have LGA's that have like 2000 people in it and tell us they have so many LGAs.
2. Election rigging. 50 percent of the registered voters are underage almajiris.
Do a tread for NYSC members currently serving in the North to tell you the population of their LGAs and you will understand my presentation.
3. Political(and religious) influence. They will always have that ideology of running the nation. Its the best way to preserve their religious beliefs.
