patrickmuf: Again haters are attacking the "Man" Tinubu and ignoring the message which I think contains every iota of truth...We can't keep making same mistakes all because some persons here want us to believe PDP = APC, I'd rather have us taste the other side of the divide and make choices based on experience rather than draw up conclusions already...
We really need a " common sense revolution"

A former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu says there is a need for the country to undergo a “common sense” revolution.

Tinubu, who is a national leader of the All Progressives Congress said the many years of misrule by successive Peoples Democratic Party presidents had continued to sink the country further into crisis.

The former governor said this in a statement titled ‘A Return to Decency’, on Monday.

He described the 16 years of PDP rule at the federal level as a period of steady decline into disaster. He said, “The longer they rule, the less benefit the people derive.
Nigeria now needs a ‘common sense revolution,’ a revolution that calls forth a return to decency, probity, transparency of process and fairness in outcome.“

This is done not by subterfuge, divide and rule and turning Nigeria in a field of discord or a street of broken institutions.
It is accomplished by honouring the principles of democratic good governance and economic justice.

It is done by persuading the people they are better off as one instead of better off tearing at one another’s throats.“Nigerians should be prepared for change.

We must rescue Nigeria from those set to cause it irreparable harm. The change I talk about is the only route to our deliverance from 16 years of the PDP locusts.

Nigeria is ours to keep and its democracy is ours to save.”He advised that this year’s Independence Day should be a time of sober reflection because other countries that received independence at the same time as Nigeria had since surpassed the country.

He described the Nigeria of today as the nightmare of its founding fathers. Tinubu further berated the PDP-led Federal Government of using religion to divide Nigerians.

He said, “We commemorate this Independence Day because the nation has survived despite its many challenges. We dare not celebrate because the nation has not flourished as it should.

Fifty four years our national trek began with hope and promise, peace and unity.“Today, the nation staggers beneath the weight of trouble multiplied by hardship.
Peace and unity seem to have yielded the moment to violence and discord. We exist as a political unit on a map but we do not prosper as brothers and sisters in one nation, under one flag and pursuant to one accord.”“Never has an elected government in Nigeria employed religion as a tool to divide the people, setting Nigerian brother against brother in a manner that allows this administration to function at the basest level of governance while seeking to establish a political domination that seeks no greater purpose than its self-perpetuation.”

He described attempts to stigmatise and physically intimidate the APC and the militarisation of elections as features of a perverse democracy.

He described President Goodluck Jonathan’s transformation agenda as an avenue to siphon funds through a dubious blueprint.“They do not have a national blueprint or vision. They do have a blueprint and vision for excessive self-enrichment.

Their equation is simple: You work, they feast. You toil, they grow fat. You seek a decent wage; they pilfer the collective treasury to enjoy a king’s ransom,” he said.

He said rather than promote religious tolerance and harmonious living, Jonathan’s government believes its electoral chances are enhanced by promoting ethnicism, internal divisions and religious suspicion but “successful nations are not built this way, have we not learned the lesson that we paid the high price of civil war to learn.”

estherdennis: I don't think you understand that man very well,in my own understading he is simply saying that is enough for PDP era. ThAt you shud vote him in cos the APC holds naija destiny.but left for me he was once there and cudnt do anything so they re all the same.naija can only get worst in the hands of the APC.cos they have the worse people as their federal level.

barcanista: Rather the journalist that wrote the article and the editor are both eeedeeeots.

@Topic: Nigeria not only need a common sense revolution, we also need a political revolution using the instrument oof our votes. The PDP's 15+ years in power has been disastrous, a period of retrogression and a bitter part of our country's history. They must be kicked out using every legitimate means at our disposal

edimat007: is he HIGH or incredibly STUP****D?

Sacluxpaint:

There is no worthy opposltion yet

pentagonal:

feck off loser.

Ahmeduana:
WHO GOES TO EQUITY, JUSTICE GOES WITH CLEAN MIND! SO THEREFORE IS NOT A PERSON LIKE TINUBU A MENTALY DEGENERATED, CORRUPT MINDED THAT WILL NOW BE THE CHAMPIONER OF THE COMMONER!

Nutase: Chai we don suffer for naija. When will politicians look at us with some decency.
The thief that sold d SW to Jonathan in 2011 is calling for a revolution now. Return the money you were paid in 2011then i might consider listening to you. MSTCHEWWWWWWWWWWW.
I swear I dey para now.

arsetalks: Where is the call for revolution here? Plus I find it weird that just the other day Asari Dokunbo made very silly statements but it never made the front page but this made it.

Nairaland has turned to a PDP tool.

Isiterere:
can you proof it ? I still belief if it's true, PDP would have used it to finished Tinubu political career considering the dirty politics we practise in Naija. A case study of Tom Ikimi allegation against Tinubu on an oil deal a day to APC national convention.
I totally agree with Tinubu, Nigeria need a common sense revolution against politics of divide to rule, religion,tribe and ethnicity.
ALL IZZ WELL

Uteghe: The jobless PDP e-staff mobilized and spread around blogs to demonize APC will fail and return to hunger by may 2015. Only a perverted trader in own conscience will criticize Asiwaju. Who fought Abacha? Who funded NADECO,Radio Kudirat and catered for the army of exiles Abacha and his goons-much of whom have found solace in the jinxed PDP-persecuted and hounded? Was it not Asiwaju? Look, PDP e-spit lickers,am a Niger Deltan,from Akwa Ibom,and I can say with ALL AUTHORITY,that apart from primordial and idio.tic ethnic and regional solidarity,NDtans do not have a single reason to support GEJ. So,stop the lazy Asiwaju hate hate post and comments!

Lordlexyy: How do you judge a party that is not in gov't with unprintable names.
