Gamji007:How did Yar Adua become president if "southerners are never fair to the north"? Was Yar Adua elected only by northerners? If GEJ was a hausa-fulani today, and with the level of performance we've seen or even in the absence of performance, he would still have support from the south. The southern governors would never have left the ruling party to join an opposition party just to unseat a sitting govt. The south would never have created Boko Haram to frustrate GEJ if he were a northerner. And so on and so forth. The south is very tolerable of other ethnic or religious groups and less dependent on govt or politics for survival. 2 Likes |

Buhari will surely fight curruption thats why we northern masses are pushing him forward,the few northern elite who denied us education loot our wealth and stap us with illitracy,becouse they dont want us to ask them questions about our wealth are the ones opposing buhari with the help of southern media which have already blackmail him.but for those who love nigeria buhari is the messiah that we denied hence the northern elite will continue to push thier selfish candidates which you southerners massively vote and at the end of the day we are the ones to suffer 1 Like |

trillville:Go and tell that to the dogs. Buhari over threw Shagari simply to satisfy personal lust for political power. If you talk in terms of corruption, who is richer today between Shagari and Buhari? How did Buhari get all the funds he waste on elections every 4 years? Buhari is a smooth criminal. 4 Likes |

Sincere 9gerian: Dude, I think you might wanna re-read your history books again on the bolded. The information we have is that Buhari was 'given' power by the coup plotters, just like Gen. Ironsi of 1966 coup. On the main topic of the thread, I have nothing to contribute; I'd rather remain passive. 5 Likes |

Donmams: It's not a theory. If I asked you now why you hate GEJ (going by your title o. Personally I prefer "oppose" you would probably say: because he is corrupt. And if I asked you why you think I support him ( despite being from the SE) you would tell me it's because I am tribalistic. I stand to be corrected. In the same vein, if you asked me (instead of going by your own assumptions) why I support GEJ, I would tell you I support him for the transformations I have SEEN and subscribe to ( improvement in power, privatization of refineries so that they can be revived to function at optimum capacity, no fuel scarcity, empowerment of the youth with the YouWin initiative, efforts to diversify the economy with increased exports of agricultural produce, efforts to increase investment in Nigeria by foreign industrialists, besides the many civil works in progress). I see change and for me the good outweighs the bad, corruption has never been absent from the Nigeria I know but we will get there eventually ( that's why the noise of the opposition is welcome). And my assumptions, like yours, are that you do not share my observations of this administration because you are blinded by tribal sentiments even though you've given corruption to be your reason. I am probably as wrong in my assumptions about you as you are about me. You have already cited the election figures of 2011 as proof that you didn't show sentiment then and wouldn't now either. I could also try to convince you that I'm not riding on tribal sentiments, especially since I voted for Buhari for 2011 because I didn't have faith in someone like GEJ but he has exceeded my expectations by a long shot. In the end, we will still believe what we want of each other. You will try to convince me that I am tribalistic and I will try to convince you that you are tribalistic; And what ensues is nasty altercation. Why bother? It's not a theory, it's just what is. 5 Likes |

Sincere 9gerian: The south voted Yar'adua because they had no choice. I believe if a strong opposition had produced a southerner as presidential candidate, the south wouldn't have voted for Yar'adua. May I also remind you that Boko haram started during Yar'adua, whom he crushed like insects. Nigeria has never felt divided as a country untill now, thanks to the ethnic and religious bigotry of GEJ and his SS/SE team. 1 Like |

All forms of corruptions were manifested in Nigerian society about 1961 by the politicians from Northern region of Nigeria. Most Nigerian army officers and politicians of northern region’s origin were products of corruption. It was unbearable spates of corruptible practices by the goons from northern region of Nigeria that ignited January 15, 1966 coup. Knowing fully well the plotters were serious about corruption, the countercoup was precipitated in order to entrench such despicable practice in the minds of all Nigerians. However in order to hide their intentions so that gullible Nigerians shall be fooled, the main objective of January coup was turned into tribal manifestation by Gowon, Usman and Yusuf. I have always laughed my head off when goons of today make silly noises about corruption. The corruption as we all know it today came to Nigeria in 1961 and had produced agents such as Gowon, Maimalari, Murtala Mohammed, IBB, Abacha, Buhari, Nuhu Ribadu, Atiku Abubakar, Ibrahim Haruna, Abdulsalami Abubakar, Joe Garba, Usman Yar Adua, Theophilus Danjuma, etc. 2 Likes |

Akinmail:Southeast does not hate buhari because of his religion but his extremism about it. Many people including myself dislike him because of his desperation to rule Nigeria despite not doing anything to better the lots of the country when he had the opportunity as military head of state. I laugh when i hear some people say that Buhari is not corrupt. If he is not corrupt,how come he is so rich to afford all the monies he wasted during 2003, 2007, and 2011 presidential elections? Has any probe been carried out to unravel the source of his money? How many retired army generals in the US can measure upto buhari's present financial status? The truth is that buhari's anti corruption stance during his military regime was just a facade created to decieve gullible Nigerians and make them believe he was upright whilst he and his cohorts were looting the nation's treasury dry. |

Raggedy_Ann:So you can actually see progress isn't it? How much progress did you see when GEJ hiked petroleum prices to remove a phantom subsidy? Did you feel progress when the oil cabal stole 2 trillion naira in fraudulent subsidy claims? Did you feel progress when foreign agencies revealed nigeria is the worst place to be born in 2013? Did you feel progress when GEJ exonerated MEND for the Abuja bombing? Did you feel progress when GEJ's mama donated hostels worth hundreds of millions to her hometown university? Did you feel progress when GEJ took over National Maritime security from the Navy and handed it over to a militant? Is that your idea of progress? No matter how hard you try to make any critic of this administration look like a tribalist the more tribalist you seem. |
