Seriously I watched Buhari's interview on channel and I was so so disappointed .. If this the man some of u are fighting for to become our next president then know we have a long way to go.. Buhari is as clueless as Jonathan. Recycling of leaders how stupid can that be.. Imagine with our population and the number of technocrats we have in this country we still prefer an old retired General to rule us. May be after Buhari other past generals like Babangida will take their turn.Nigerians use ur brains for once .

I am sure the irony if the matter escapes the reasoning capability of his ardent die-hard followers. Coming from a foreigner......
And let us keep sentiments aside, this is in fact the truth. Watching his interview on Channels, I just had to "SMH".
And it amazes me that a foreigner understands Nigerian politics more that some youths on this forum. It irks. APC is TINUBU and TINUBU is APC. Buhari is just the side attraction.


Yes, lest I forget, I expect some town criers to accuse the reporter of being sponsored by GEJ. Lol.

I guess you and your foriegner friend will also argue that the 12M votes CPC scored in 2011 presidential election was influenced by Tinubu.

Joinathan that could not even stand competition from his own party
He had to cut deals with everybody to become the consensus candidate
Only in places like Syria, Iraq, North Korea do you see sole candidates and 99% winning votes and that is what Jonathan wants
And he calls himself a democrat

I don't know why you guys keep repeating fallacious ignorance everywhere.

Which primary election did Obama win to get his second term ticket from the Democrats? Which primaries did George W Bush to get his second term ticket from the Republicans?

Traditionally, the party with the incumbent president avoids primaries (except in cases of extremely poor performance) in order to avoid dividing the base and take full advantage of the powers of incumbency.

you have always not liked Buhari. Som1 asked u why den ur hypocritic signature. Since that day i lost respect for that ur signature.
As for the man, i have nothing much than to say that was he expecting landslide why did pdp not conduct primaries lets see if he would get even 60% vote. Did u even expect atiku to lose that way? Or you think some other aspirants never lobbied or induced? That he is a CNN reporter doesnt make him all right afterall donald trump never liked Obama.

But the guy is just saying what we already know. It never was about Buhari.

That Oando oil deal clinched by BAT in a meeting with Diezani Allison-Madueke (buying US oil a firm's operations in 9ja) as revealed by Tom Ikimi must have come with some political agreement.

It won't surprise me if Tinubu stands covertly for PDP again in 2015.

He already did so before by using paper-weight Ribadu in last presidential election.

Corrupt Atiku thinks he can buy delegates so he keeps trying.

Talk about stunts 101..

This guy's argument is weak. At least the APC have a true picture of which areas they need to work on as opposed to GEJ's fake 100% approval rating which dangerously masks the extent of his disapproval. Make no mistake, Buhari will win the presidential election come 2015.

please help me tell them!

Need I remind you ignorant folks that APC does not belong to Tinubu. APC was formed by:

Tinubu from ACN
Muhammadu Buhari from CPC
Ogbonnaya Onu from ANPP

Three of them were the party leaders before the amalgamation of the parties.

Some people need to go deep into Nigerian politics and learn.

Its just really hilarious how you wanna use a 'foreigners' opinion as a means to attack Buhari. Isn't the opinions of all the bunch of Pro GEJ guys on this forum or anywhere else in Nigeria whom by the way have been of course criticizing APC and boasting about how no matter who wins GEJ is gonna thrash em at the polls.

But NOOO lets go find a 'foreigners' opinion then immediately stick it in the frontpage because Boy will it hurt em if a foreigner says something in line with our opinions.

What exactly is supposed to be so hurtful about this twitter post, that could be worst than the pathetic PDP propaganda that we've witnessed over the last couple of years undecided OHH right a 'foreigner' said it!

I think I know where the problem with PDP lies. PDP expect Muhammadu Buhari to threaten, intimidate and harass all other contestants to step down for him the way Jonathan did. Bhari was a military dictator then, but today he is a democrat. Buhari lost the presidential election thrice and went to court from the Election Tribunal to Court of Appeal and to Supreme Court. Only a true democrat will do that.

Jonathan on the other hand sent the military to intimidate Ekiti and Osun voters and also sent EFCC after Babangida Aliu and Sule Lamido who were planning to challenge him for the PDP party ticket.
