Neo-XVI:


My thoughts exactly. I pray they succeed and become as strong as PDP.
I hope they are able to field exciting candidates with some pedigree in public or private service.
I hope that to a good extent they allow party process and primaries to pick the best candidates.
I hope they realize that we have high hopes that when they do get into power they will do better, much better to help us forget all the years of PDP misrule.

Their allegiance should be to the Nigerian populace.
APC over to you. Help awaken the sleeping giant that Nigeria is!

When were you born that you are posting this nonsense here. We saw it with our eyes. Buhari, the illiterate sharia proponent was the beginning of Nigeria's economic mess and the decay we have today and he was a coward to boot. If he was a real man, he would not have hidden under Idiagbon's pants for 20 months. As soon as Idiagbon went for hajj, they kicked the fool out of office without a single fight. If that dolt had not truncated our nascent and budding democracy, we would have been a great country today. The idiota wanted to be a life president and had no single plan to return the country back to democracy. No wonder he never supported any of the struggle to return the country back to democracy throughout the 90s. Even people like Tinubu and Gowon at one time or the other learnt their voice to the call for democracy but Buhari was silent all along. Where was the idiotic Buhari when so many people came out to advocate to a return to democracy? He was busy frolicking and dinning and embezzling with Abacha and later declared Abacha corruption free. Now he wants to reap where he didnt sow. He wants to enjoy a democracy he vehemently truncated and fought against.

He will fail as he has always failed.

All your screams and rants after the bolded statement did not show or explain your statement.

How does someone getting dethroned by a coup or not lending a voice to democracy cause an economic mess.

I smell VOODOONOMICS.

lucenzo: well said. instead of someone coming here to spit shit like acn being the messiah party. I like what you said about lesser evil. One thing is certain: both are evil

OAM4J:

Most political parties and politicians are 'evil'; they are selfish, liar, corrupt, opportunists, etc, including the most advanced democracy in the developed countries. What keep political parties/politicians in check is the fear of being voted out of power by the people, so they try to do better than the other party for the people. That is why it is better for the people to always have a strong alternative.

It is in this light I strongly welcome APC. Even if they dont win (though I strongly hope they do), at least PDP will know it can no longer be 'business as usual'.

Just like the democracy of Goodluck and OBJ, has made us great. Please.

thelastPope:

I totally agree! The states currently with the best performing governors in Nigeria are all states with strong opposition. By strong opposition, i mean that the incumbent is aware that the people can turn against him if he fails and he has no choice but to try and show some promise. The only governor I respect that performed without pressure was Donald Duke.

thelastPope:

I know you will gallop into hiding after posting trash about a foolish human being like Buhari. Can you show me one thing that they used over 200 billion PTF fund to do? Just one tangible one still visible today? nonsense!

thelastPope:

If you are not a teenager, you would know that with all the challenges we have today, we still have made much more progress than the progress of the 16 years between Buhari and Abacha. When OBJ took over in 1999, nothing was working. Absolutely nothing. How many mega watts of power did OBJ inherit again? In the 2 years of GEJ, we have added more Megawatts than was added between Buhari and Abacha.

The year 2013 calls for a sober reflection at the fairness of the overthrow of Shagari’s government in 1983. The first four years of that regime was characterized by unnecessary press war against it. Moreover, after many years of military dictatorship and the aftermath of the civil war, instruments of democratic governance completely collapsed. Four years could not be enough to restructure civil rule for representative government.

The mistakes of the first term could have been corrected during the second tenure. The military that became impatient to sack that government entrenched monumental corruption. Whatever they accused that government of was insignificant compared to increased corruption and displacement of priorities that followed. The Nigerian economy continued to witness an unprecedented downward slide.

Note could have been corrected, not would have been. Also note, sack a government entrenched with monumental corruption. I know you are old enough and saw everything. Congrats.

Finally don't say he will fail. You are not God and you don't know tomorrow. Thanx.

Can you show me one proof that he embezzled PTF money. Please leave all those propaganda stuff. I wonder how you can call someone like Gen. Buhari foolish. Please that isn't mature. Let us not act like hooligans here.

thelastPope:

I have told you to stop posting nonsense to justify a foolish coup by a power drunk idiota. There was no unprecedented downward slide. The military, starting from Buhari, brought any unprecedented downward slide. When Buhari took over, it was 1 naira to approx 0.9 dollar. By 1999, it was 95 naira to 1 dollar. When was the downward slide then?

In 1983, Nigerians didnt need a visa to travel to the UK and the USA. Infact, you could travel to the UK with a student ID. Stop posting nonsense. It was free education and you got a job immediately you graduated. Nigerians started travelling abroad for greener pastures from 1988/1989. About 6 years after the military took over. In 1983, a brand new Volkwagen beattle car cost 2,500 naira and ticket to the UK was 500 naira. You are talking absolute nonsense

thelastPope:

I just asked you to show me one thing PTF did with over 200 billion in the nineties that is still standing to date and you are asking me nonsense question. If the money was not embezzled, wont you see the monuments and infrastruture it was used for?

What did PTF money achieve in health, agric, roads, education, etc. We know how things were when OBJ took over, so where did PTF money go?

Afam4eva:
Enugu and Cross River have never had a strong opposition and Donald Duke did well and Chime is currently doing very well. I even think it's the states with strong opposition that are not doing very for whatever reason.

General Buhari stayed about 2 years and yet you are pointing fingers at him for the crime of General Babangida. Yet you say I am talking nonsense. SMH and laughing.

thelastPope:

Where did I claim anything about the Shagari government? na wa for you self.

It isnt about the shagari government being a pedestal to greater heights. It is about how the democracy should have been allowed to bud and grow and overcome its teething problems. What would America have been today if coup after coup have been the case when things were bad? Do you know how bad and corrupt America was in the 30s and 50s?

Buhari was a curse to Nigeria.

When regular Citizens are armed like this, do you think the government can misbehave?

By the way, Gen. Buhari was never a curse to Nigeria.

How can you ask me that. Was I in General Buhari's government. All I know is that he didn't loot funds and he did a lot of work with it. Let us be fair with our questions.

Meanwhile your NOI and GEJ are going on CNN and lying that there was hardly no investment for Twenty Decades. I laugh in Bakassi and you concur.

thelastPope:


How do you know he didnt loot funds if there is no evidence of what was done with the funds? Your are really confused. You are contradicting yourself. So you think he didnt loot funds because he said so? Or because he claims he has no property anywhere? Or because he dresses like a gate man? lol





When I said you are a teenager, you said I was insulting you and alas, I was right. Can you name one major power project built and commisioned between 1983 december and 1999?

To really show you are a teenager, you dont even know Buhari was PTF chairman between 1994 and 1999? SMH for you

Have you answered how in that time we were watching NTA news and Newsline, even Super Eagles like Kanu and Okocha without Generators and nothing working? Yet you say I'm a teenager.

Now you have gone to America. Please if the past Government of America were corrupt and causing the people harm and looting their funds, do you think the gunslinging Colorado Men and North Carolina men will sit down. Those guys are armed to the teeth and ready to rock.

The American democracy grew because of Good governance. Not by monumental corruption.

You should try and calm down and do some serious reading before you come here to debate
