Pls tell me the dictionary where you saw non-violent revolution. Futher tell us whereit has happened beore but I would be happier if you tell what is revolution in the first place.

Gbawe: Disappointing to see that many Nairalanders validate the saying "if you want to hide something from a black man, keep it in a book". Anyone who read the article will know Tinubu is not talking of violence, chaos, division or forceful takeover of power. He is actually saying the opposite to demand a "common sense" revolution which unites Nigerians to see them agitate for the right things good leadership delivers. Goodluck to some Nairalanders because it seems they enjoy their own personal lack of refinement and can only bark rabidly when some names are mentioned without even the minimal sophistication to inspect what is under discussion or its context.

Then whose? May be yours Remember, the buck stops on his desk. Anyway, he used to be a good man. Unfortunately, he's surrounded by elements who only think of their pockets instead of the well-being of this country. It's a shame that from 1999 till date the PDP failed to provide Nigerians with 24 hour power; not that the money is not available but was constantly diverted. Obasanjo is culpable here.
Let me not go into pension funds.

hifaif:

You guys are really making this hard. What can you not understand in REVOLUTION been used by Tinubu? I gave that definition because the lady thought REVOLUTION must involve bloodshed.

Tinubu is asking you to make a change (REVOLUTION) by using your votes to remove a government that has been in power since 1999. Why is that so hard to understand?

Are you people deliberately daft that you can't understand the context in which Tinubu is making use of the word REVOLUTION?

tonychristopher:

English isn't our language can you help us by defining the term revolution

Then I will understand if he meant violent or not

Google is your friend
.maybe WWW.dictionary.com will do

A bit research on won't hurt your already dead brain

hifaif:


Your stupidity is baffling. So if I want to prepare a paperwork on REVOLUTION, the dictionary alone can provide me with everything I need under it, right?

Well, I got this from Wiki. Please, educate yourself:

A nonviolent revolution is a revolution using
mostly campaigns of civil resistance, including
various forms of nonviolent protest , to bring
about the departure of governments seen as
entrenched and authoritarian. While many
campaigns of civil resistance are aimed at much
more limited goals than revolution, generally a
nonviolent revolution is characterized by
simultaneous advocacy of democracy , human
rights and national independence in the country

Auspiman: Revolution! yes I agree because it will be sweeping against most APC and PDP leaders but common-sense-Revolution sounds skewed to trick gullible Nigerians and to whose advantage, APC as comprised today? Never.

tonychristopher:

Stop crying Atlantic ocean

The power sector has been deregulated and states now have the capacity yo generate and distribute energy [size=16pt]don't blame it again on PDP [/size]

SamAfrik:
You shouldnt have bothered explaining basic English to me. One thing is certain you can hardly separate the two words: while all leaders are rulers (in the political context) unfortunately not all rulers are leaders.
As for your slander of personalities & the opposition, you are talking to the wrong person..... I already decided for APC.
70% of Nigerians know the party they are voting next year anyway.

Give us another line

VoteOutPDPJona:

Yea! Blame not the PDP, rather blame the gods. A party that sank $16 billion between 1999 and 2007 into the power sector their pocket. How many more years should we give the PDP to continue with trial and error style of governance/ legacy of waste?

karlmax2: do they know anything apart from propaganda that comes out of apc. Akwa ibom,delta,anambra bauchi are all about to complete their power plants while the mugus are still waiting for fg

I was brought up in a family which abhors insults and name calling so I will not start with you. Nairaland is an interactive forum and nothing or anybody will make me to see it differently.

In one sentence give us the meaning of revolution before giving it branches.

hifaif:

I can't waste my time on you since you obviously don't have the brain to think. You mean all the explanation I gave earlier was a waste? Come on.

Alright, read up on:

Common Sense Revolution (CSR)

Search for it on Google and help yourself. Stop asking for the literal meaning of REVOLUTION.

PenSniper: Okay, Mr. Tinubu, am Yoruba like you and our people say " ile la ti nko eso r'ode" (charity begins at home). Lets start the revolution with honesty and transparency by allowing a UN-appointed judicial commission of inquiry to probe your 8-year tenure as governor of Lagos State. Over to you and should you fail to take up this challenge, then you should henceforth give your larynx a rest so nigerians can pretend that you dont exist.

samplegirl:

Thanks, I appreciate.

hifaif:

FYI, I didn't school in Nigeria. And please, tell me why you can't simply search for NONVIOLENT REVOLUTION on Google? Is it a taboo for you to personally search for knowledge?

And you made me laugh by saying she did a good job on me. Go and check her posts. In the end, she could only hiss while you ran away only to come behind my back to start saying crap. Who does that? Only a sissy like you

tonychristopher:

ola6:
The Ole buruku, Tinubu Ole will never allow such. We are all equal but some are more equal than others. Gbawe and other paid per post betrayers of Yoruba land will never allow such, how will they get paid?
