Because you have failed to realise how religiously sensitive this country is. Most of these people that call you up either attend these churches whose pastors you criticize or do not want their guest to be saddled with putting up with your presence; your unpredictability is your undoing; nobody wants you to start lashing out on pastors at their events.

They should arrest him asap and begin the process of sending him to ICC to face human right abuses and criminal charges


Some Buhari's murder crimes and human right abuses:

1.) 2011 post-election violence that killed many Nigerians

2.) The massacre of hundreds of some Muslims in Kaduna

3.) Extra judicial killings of unarmed IPOB protesters in Aba/Onitsha

4.) Sponsoring of Fulani herdsmen terrorists to massacre innocent Nigerians in Middlebelt

5.) Indirect sponsoring of Boko Haram and release of detained hardcore Boko Haram leaders!

Buhari brought Bichi from retirement to head the SSS since the next six most senior officers to head the Secret Police are all Southerners. He did the same thing in Customs, NIA and most agencies but the media didn't say a word about it.

You see Mohammed Buhari doesn't care because he has realised that whatever evil thing he does, the SW media will continue to praise him to high heavens because of Osinbajo. You guys will reap and certainly pay in the future

AllTheWayUp:
“I assure party members and all Nigerians that, if nominated and if elected, I shall continue to serve you to the best of my ability," Buhari said. “Let me today appeal to party members not to be complacent but to prepare, strategize and win in 2019 elections. We must not allow those who brought the country to its knees from 1999 to 2015 to come and take us back.”

President Muhammadu Buhari has assured Nigerians that he will serve them to the best of his ability if he receives the ticket of his party and is elected by the people.

Buhari said this on Wednesday when he submitted his expression-of-interest and nomination forms at the national secretariat of his party.

“Today I put my name forward to my party, the All Progressives Congress, seeking nomination to contest the Presidential Elections next year,” the President said after making the submission, flanked by Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the party, some governors and some members of his cabinet.

“I assure party members and all Nigerians that, if nominated and if elected, I shall continue to serve you to the best of my ability.

“Let me today appeal to party members not to be complacent but to prepare, strategize and win in 2019 elections. We must not allow those who brought the country to its knees from 1999 to 2015 to come and take us back.”

The Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, on Wednesday, okayed three separate suits seeking to declare the seats of Governors Samuel Ortom of Benue State, Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State and Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara State, vacant, following their defection to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

The suits marked FHC/ABJ/CS/901/2018, FHC/ABJ/CS/940/2018 and FHC/ABJ/CS/943/2018, respectively, were lodged before the court by a civil society group under the aegis of Incorporated Trustees of Advocacy for Change and Social Values Network. The group is praying the court to direct the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to within 90 days, conduct fresh poll to elect new Governors in the three states and a Deputy Governor in Benue State, in accordance with the law.

Tambuwal, Ortomand Ahmed It equally applied for an interim order, directing Chief Judges of the states to swear-in Speakers of the State Houses of Assembly, to hold office as Acting Governors, pending the conduct of fresh elections by INEC. Whereas Governor Ortom was sued alongside his Deputy, Mr. Benson Abounu, both Tambuwal and Ahmed were sued alone. Also joined as Defendants in the suits were INEC and the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Specifically, the plaintiff, among other things, wants the court determine, “Whether having regard to the totality of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria I999 (as amended), a person elected into office as Governor or Deputy Governor on the sponsorship of a particular political party which won the election, can move or defect to another political party without the consent of the sponsoring political party, whilst still retaining the benefit of the election won by the initial political party?

Whether by the combined provisions of Sections 177(c) and 221 of the 1999, Constitution, as amended, and the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of AMEACHI v lNEC (2000) S NWLR (Pt.l080) 227, it was not the APC that won the 2015 governorship election in Benue, Sokoto and Kwara states. Whether having regard to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I999 (as amended), there is any provision that allows or empowered the three governors and the deputy governor of Benue State, elected under the APC, to move or defect to another political party? “Whether an election victory won by a political party, in this case the APC, can be transferred to another political party, without the express consent of the political party that won the election, and contrary to the express provision of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended)?

“Whether, except for the offices or positions and under the circumstances specified in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended), the Defendants who were declared elected into the office or position of Governor and Deputy Governor on the sponsorship of a particular political party (the APC) can transfer the victory of such election to another adverse political party by retaining the office or position? “Whether, except for the offices or positions and under the circumstances specified in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended), the Defendants who have withdrawn and resigned their membership of the political party upon which they were elected, are still entitled to the rights and privileges that accrued to them as, and while they were, members of the initial political party (the APC)”.

In the case of Benue State, the plaintiff asked the court to further determine “Whether the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Defendants (Ortom, Abounu and the APC) can, either expressly or impliedly and outside the contemplation of the law, reconfigure, restructure or extinguish the political platform and framework upon which they canvassed and secured votes and mandate of the electorates represented by the Plaintiff and the other electorates in the 2015 General Governorship Election in Benue State, and still retain the position, and if not, was the of the 2nd and 3rd Defendant’s defection and invariable restructuring and reconfiguration of the political platform and framework upon which they were voted, not unlawful, ultra-vires the Constitution and amounts to a violation of the electorates’ right to elect political party of their choice? As well as, “Whether having regard to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended), the circumstances and justice of this case, the proper order for the Court to make is not one directing the 1“ Defendant (INEC) to conduct a new election for the completion of the unexpired term of the 2nd and 3rd Defendants as Governor and Deputy Governor of Benue State respectively?”.

Upon determination of the legal questions, the plaintiff, sought for a declaration that the defection, movement, crossing of carpet or howsoever called, by the three governors and the deputy governor of Benue State, from the political party that sponsored them and also won the 2015 General Governorship Election in the states, to another political party, was unconstitutional in the absence of any statutory provision or authority that permitted such movement.

A declaration that the continued stay in office of the three Governors and the Deputy Governor of Benue State, having withdrawn and resigned their membership of the APC which was the political party that sponsored them and also won the 2015 General Governorship Election, and defected to the PDP, was unconstitutional and in gross violation of mandate of the electorates. A declaration that the Defendants, having withdrawn and resigned membership of the APC, the political party that sponsored them and also won the 2015 General Governorship Election in their states, and defected to another political party, the composition of the Office of Governor as presently being held and occupied by two different political parties, represented by the APC and the Defendants, is unconstitutional, violates the mandate of the electorates including those represented by the Plaintiff.

“A declaration that under the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999, (as amended) and existing laws, no two adverse political parties can present a single candidate in an election in which both party are contesting or lay claim to victory in one elective position or office, except as provided and contemplated by the Constitution. A declaration that under the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended), the legal right to the electoral victory won by a political party, in this case, the vested right of the APC in electoral victory in the 2015 General Governorship Election in Benue, Sokoto and Kwara States, cannot be severed or transferred from the political party that won the election, to another political party, without subjecting same to a re-election by the electorates, in accordance with the law.

A declaration that the Defendants cannot, either expressly or impliedly, reconfigure. restructure or extinguish the political platform and framework upon which they canvassed and secured votes and mandate of the electorates, including those represented by the Plaintiff, in the 2015 General Governorship Election, except in accordance with the law.

As well as, “A declaration that the defection and invariable restructuring and reconfiguration of the political platform and framework upon which the Defendants canvassed and secured votes and mandate of the electorates, including those represented by the Plaintiff in the 2015 General Oovernorship Election in Benue, Sokoto and Kwara States, was unlawful, ultra-vires the Constitution and amounts to a violation of the electorates’ right to elect political party of their choice”.

Meantime, Justice Nnamdi Dimgba has ordered service of all the relevant court processes on the Defendants to enable them to appear before the court on October 10. The court equally okayed substituted service of the processes on the Defendants through their various liason offices in Abuja.

Lizzysamuel:
The Minister of Transportation and Director general of the Buhari campaign organization, Rotimi Amaechi has said Nigerians will enjoy 24 hours power supply if President Buhari is re-elected in 2019. Amaechi disclosed this during an interactive session with the media in Abuja on Tuesday, September 11th.


Speaking on why Buhari and the APC government deserves the second term, Amaechi said;


“There is also an improvement in power. We have from 3000megawatt to 7000 but we are distributing 5000 because some of the Infrastructures are not in good state but we are slowly fixing them.
The expectation is that it should be 24 hours power supply but there will still be a gap but if you give us a second term, that gap will be closed.”


Speaking further, the former Rivers state governor said;



“Nigerians have taught me a lesson I learnt in politics and that is why nothing bothers me again. The people praising you today, if you see them when you are out of power, you will be shocked. Those singing hallelujah and hosanna will still be the same people to shout crucify him tomorrow.


“We have done much more than transport. In terms of Corruption; this economy was a rent economy. Public money was spent anyhow and it was an economy that was not worked hard for. That is why you see politicians today very rich and one year after government, they are poor. They are like that because they don’t know how to manage the money.


“When Buhari came, he said no and that we cannot continue to spend anyhow. Buhari has not said people should not steal, he has rather kept quiet to see who can steal because there is a consequence for stealing.


“I don’t want to say it has stopped completely but it has reduced. Before, there were so many empty houses in Abuja. People were building and speculating that new politicians will come in and buy but we came in and could not buy because of the economy. So if you say Buhari has not done anything on corruption, you are being most unfair.


“Also, the 2016 budget was 6percent capita but we are doing 20 percent capita now. We are doing 80 percent recurrent and 20 percent capital. We believe that in the next two to three years, we will get to 30 percent capital and we will get there if we reduce the current expenditure and deal with wastage.”
“It is also unfair if Nigerians think the ministry of works is not working. The road to Bonny was abandoned after Obasanjo left government.


“The road was below N39bn but it is now N120bn. When I was Governor, I wrote to federal government under Jonathan that I wanted to do the road for N39bn but they didn’t reply me.
“My final year as governor, energy wrote that they will take care of 50 percent of the bill and I wrote again to the Federal Government but they didn’t reply because I was in APC. Now that the Federal government wants to do it, the cost is now N120bn.


“So, Buhari government is dealing with corruption, building roads. The worst roads in Nigeria used to be between Uyo and Calabar but it has been awarded.


“The road to Enugu too that people are complaining about, contractors are working on the roads already. The work may be slow but they are working. When we came oil was $28 per barrel and our budget was $35 and suddenly it dropped but the Minister of Budget managed it for us to survive. Now oil is $74 but we still have not reached $110. If we get to that, things will change rapidly. Also the Ilorin-Jebba road. So many roads have been awarded.”

Funny Nigerian Army, they have become a joke. If it is to invade Kanu's peaceful home town to kill unarmed people, they will rush to do that

But if it is to invade Benue, Taraba, Zamfara and Platue states were Boko Haram, Herdsmen and other armed bandits are killings people everyday, you won't see anything happen.

What a disgrace

Hurray good news to the patriots. Here is the global rating of Nigeria economy so far so good in 2018.

A standing ovation for the wonderful team of PMB.

Forbes rates Nigeria as 2018 best economy in Africa -

Do you agree, please present your argument with facts and figures.

Before you begin to write consider the following points.

Technically this government have liquidated all the loans she took so far. Wait before you cry foul. Nigeria total debt @ December 2014 was $67bill this converted to Naira @ N179/$ is N12Trn. However this same amount converted at current exchange rate @ N310/$ is N20Trn. Now add the 5 months salary borrowed to pay civil servants, N200bill subsidy debt and N1trn owe local contractors.

Considering the fact that current debt profile stood at N22Trn @ N310/$ is just $70bill. This is the fact the opposition doesn't want you to know and the reason they only quote Nigeria debt in Naira to deceive lazy Nigeria who cannot think on their own.

While one will forgive not so intelligent Dino, it's highly pathetic that Peter Obi also follow up on this lie.

Below you will also find Nigeria foreign reserve journey to date

Finally, talking about resources available. Comparing the first 3 years of Gej and PMB, Gej made $393bill while PMB made just $96bill. According to the link below Gej depleted foreign reserve to $29bill and PMB grew it to $45bill. You know what they both did with the resources.

Are you still not convinced, take a trip to Venezuela, or Agentina where interest rate is 60%, Greece, Zimbabwe and I'm sure how mismanaged economy look like

If Buhari even agrees to Debate, are you sure we are all ready to go through the torture of listening to whatever he has to say?
