Thumbs up CNN!!!

True but I can't think of a country which values it's citizens who will be paying for election adverts in foreign media. Really? With all the issues facing nigerians

Okijajuju1:
Note:: This means absolutely nothing Special as CNN wouldnt do same for any other country.


They try to stay neutral in everything that they do.

Tnx to can actions. To corrupt leaders of 9ja.

Ipledge:
So you want CNN to just finish breaking Mubi Captured by Boko haram,and 2nd minute slot in that stupid TAN campaign(comparing a drunkard whose citizen are being killed everyday with Martin Luther king,Mandela,and Obama)

Money is not everything,integrity matter most

did the poster said the advert is from TAN?

Sometimes it bits my mind when I read or hear how some people talk about Jonathan. Every blame is on Jonathan. 98% of problems we have in this country today are being contributed by our pasted leaders. Boko Haram is existing today is never the making of Jonathan. That we voted for Jonathan was never a mistake. That Nigeria has a very bad image today never started today, but a build-up of bad leadership we had, including those still leaving, singing bad song against the present government. They all contributed to whatever Nigeria is today.
What am I trying to say? Jonathan could not win the war against Boko Haram today is a very simple reason. Have any of you ever visited any Army Barack? If so, what was your observation? Answer- Total domination of military by the Hausa. Both as officers and combatant is total domination by the Hausas. What kind of respect and loyalty do you expect when an order especially from somebody who is perceived to be an outsider is given to a someone to go and fight or kill his brothers? The Born to Rule attitude of the Northern is one of the causes of upraising of the Boko Haram, which most of the northern leaders and politicians are using to discredit this government by sponsoring the group to give this government a bad name. From the early stage of this government, they have made it clear, that, they (northern) are going to make Nigeria ungovernable. This, they have succeeded in doing that. Instead of total condemnation from everybody and say it the way it is, we are calling Jonathan. Because of some people's personal political ambition and greed, they are cross carpeting like prostitute flirting with all men just because of money. Truth has disappeared from their mouth. It is somehow painful, seeing most of my southern people, badly criticizing this
government knowing fully well the game plan played by the northern to make the government ungovernable. Why not say the truth or you keep your mouth shut. The northern ruled this nation for over 40 years out of our 52years of independent with the north totally backward that brought about the menace (Boko Haram) we are having today. The question is, how many northern have even appeared to criticise any of our leaders from the north while in office, irrespective of total negligence from their leaders. It is totally annoying seeing our political leaders from south romancing politics with them because of personal greed. You are in APC or PDP, your name can never change or neither is it going to change your attitude. Once a failure in one party will remain a failure in another party. Party name can never change you. All your contribution is geared towards greed or ending up letting the northern achieve their aim. Let everybody from the south support Yoruba or Igbo that comes out from south irrespective of party or better still support Jonathan. I know the war from Boko Haram will never cease if our next election produces a southern as president, be him Jonathan or somebody else, one day Boko Haram will wake up to see that, they don't have brothers to kill again.

yeye dey smaile nigeria politicials will never spend money for good things. na sin? i no blame then chai, becus without juju u can,t play politice for nigerian. no go thing will ever come out from juju b4. nigerian politcians need to embrace God becus juju n politic can,t go along no way

ttmacoy:
Why can't this money be invested in Nigeria 's media instead of CNN.

Waste of money which can be used to improve the health and education sectors.

http://www.thecable.ng/2015-cnn-rejects-political-adverts-nigeria

But an official of CNN told TheCable that it was
a general rule not to accept certain
advertisements and there was no
discrimination against Nigerian politicians.

Wetin concern us, if they like make dem gree, if they no like kwan make dem fashy, wetin concern me......
Abeg new topic jare

what a shame, where death and corruption..... is now a normal thing what else is left for us the youth?

This is serious.

In my opinion, for the interest if the Nigeria' feeble democracy, political advert should be greatly reduced while political debate enthroned to save us from mediocre politician who rely greatly
on political jamborees.

So you mean pdp didn't know.it's a rule not to advertise on CNN?

OMG what a daft party

A blessed country like Nigeria... Yet those at the top go around spoiling d face of Nigerians

Will Nigerians in diaspora be allowed to vote too?

thinkdip:

No, not a reasonable reason but a considerable reason for him to be re-elected, GEJ by nature is a calm fellow, so don't expect presidency to make him hard hearted, rigid, wicked and callous, no. Do you want to tell me he's not doing anything in this alarming and dangerous era? We can only say that if we don't look indeep to our argument

Sentiment has been the bane of our society. To a rational mind, Presidency should not be based on gentility or calmness (they r likely to be d bane) but rather his ability to deliver on things he swore to (such as security and general well being), remember that challenges r part of life, so his unfounded excuse over his opponents are untenable. Why is he the chief commander with d custody of all the security apparatus? Have you asked yourself, if he is unable to solve security problem now, how are we sure he will be able to do it in the next 4 years? Life is more precious to be staked for a man's ambition. Mind you am not a party loyalist but i support personalities especially those that have what it takes.

Okijajuju1:




No its not.


Infact!!!! I can personally count off the top 10 Mega wealthy Nigerians who would pay that campaign bill for Jonathan.


Campaign funding is not from the Government coffers but from Campaign contributors, Contractors and co. Remember how the President raised over 100 Million naira to pick a presidential ticket of 22 million?!

hmmmmmmm

ttmacoy:
I tell you.

Over 40 students died yesterday and focus is all on elections. No compassion or value for human life.

Dats to show how (I dey avoid ban) your soul called leaders/politicians are.
