I never liked tinubu bc of his imperial like tendencies, but this speech is moving. Whether it comes from his heart or not is immaterial, d fact is that a strong stalwart in Nigerian politics has come out publicly to endorse candidates of his party. Dis doesn't luk gud for d PDP bc in a part of d speech, asiwaju specifically stated openly dt it was d religious plot played by d PDP dt subtly denied him of d VP ticket. He wud thus use all his clout to try to ensure PDP is defeated. 4 Likes |

espn:I shouldn't be responding to you but posterity will hold it against me if I don't help cure your disease of ignorance. I don't know how old you are but I assume since you can log onto the internet you must be at least 10 years old. A ten years old kid knows Jonathan didn't cause any insurgency but is fighting it instead though be hasn't won yet but will. Insurgency in Nigeria has a fairly long history though it may appear it's a recent development. Let me not knock off your little brain with history so you would celebrate Christmas in one piece. Secondly, Jonathan as a president has been doing his utmost to create jobs for the teemig youth of this country. His policies both in the agric, automotive, education sectors and even at the SMEs level has done much to reduce poverty. Now what has your state governor done to ensure your elder brothers and sisters get jobs? |

Whatever Tinubu!!! We all know why you stepped down for Osibanjo, you had majority of the APC governor and the inner caucus of the party against you and even your close pal such as Fashola and co were all against you presenting yourself for VP slot. So don't make it look as if you willingly gave the post of the VP to the Proff. Whatever is the case, APC won't win come 2015. If Buhari like let him pick Jesus Christ as his running mate. It will all end in failure. 1 Like 1 Share |

abbey621:I understand your point but voting is a personal thing.I like the APC but I don't believe in a buhari presidency.I don't think the APC should have limited its options to the north just as I don't think buhari is the best the APC has to offer.I can't vote buhari simply because I want ebele dislodged.I can't vote a candidate I don't believe in.I was hoping the APC will present a fashola as VP at the least.or even amechi or kwakwanso.i'd rather abstain from voting than voting a candidate who doesn't appear to have a clear cut agenda 1 Like |

sanmibukunmi: I quite agree with you that words and more importantly the talent for making fine speeches counts for a lot in the profile of a good POLITICIAN. That is one of the weak points of Jonathan. However words ALONE should never be enough as we the ever VIGILANTE citizens need to verify if those words, no matter how finely strung together they may be, do make sense when taken into consideration with the ACTIONS of the speaker. BTW, many thanks for your light-hearted response. Greatly appreciated! 1 Like 1 Share |

knightsTempler: My sentiments exactly! Buhari no even send/consider the muslim/muslim controversial angle, he offered the position to Tinubu. Tinubu himself knows/knew that if he accepted the VP slot APC will die faster than expected, because even if they disregarded the controversy the muslim/muslim ticket would bring, Fashola would still have been a better candidate than Tinubu. Tinubu was a no no. 1 Like 1 Share |

Delafruita: Then my friend you are part of the problem. There's only one thing worse than those who vote for the same party or person and expecting change, that is those who refused to vote. If you don't vote you don't matter, you cannot be an agent of change! I will implore you to reconsider, you might not like Buhari or his choice of a VP but keep in mind this election is much more than that. We have all seen what absolute power does, we all know it corrupts. While I have nothing personal against GEJ, I believe he is just a pawn in his political party. The power that PDP has over Nigerians is overwhelming, it's high time Nigerians taste something different, let's stop being pushovers and reason for once; APC is not perfect, Buhari is not the savior but at this point we must vote PDP out, a political party cannot be greater than the people, impossible! 1 Like |

Larriekay:Does Azazi saying PDP = Book haram means Jonathan caused the insurgency? You see why I said I shouldn't be responding to you? Don't you think you need to do a little research on what Azazi said to help yourself out? espn:Check what he has along the Benin-Shagamu rd, check it along the Lagos-Ibadan rd, check it along the Enugu-Abakiliki, Vom-Manchok, Kano-Maiduguri, Sokoto-Tambuwal-Jega rds. You will see what he has done on our rail tracks which are moving people and goods once again. Check the airports you will see them. Go to our tertiary institutions you will see what he has done. If you don't see them come back and let me know. The President has just launched a Youth Employment in Agriculture Programme to help he youth succeed in agriculture. See how yo can access the fund and make your life better, stop asking g for what he has done. While you asking for what he has done others are improving their lives through he various youth empowerment programmes designed by the FG such as YOUWIN and this one launched yesterday. 1 Like 1 Share |

I don't think Mr. Tinubu is as thick skin as Mr. President because the FOI bill passed has made so many dick and Harry lash at the president. If it were to be GMB or OBJ heads may have roles. Religion and Ethnicity plays a huge role in our electoral process today and Tinubu tactical refused it but forgetting that Ethnicity and tribalism clouded his choice else, he should have known that the southeast haven't had a president nor a vice for long. He should have known that the south south, though Goodluck is still in power still need to have a "good" taste of the seat of power. I see this to be a contest between the southeast/southsouth/north versus the southwest/north while religion deciding where more votes swings because even the Professor pastor himself may not stop people from loving the incumbent president Tinubu said he seek a progressive democratic government....for each to contribute to rescue etc I wonder why he want people to contribute to rescue when APC wins. Had he forgotten he asked the APC members not to attend the national conference, a forum where they would contribute immensely and should how much the love this country. but unfortunately bitterness and hatred for the gentleman in power clouded thier thinking, One thing I know talk do not win election else Rochas, Labaran, Kwankwanso would win the primaries. Its both the rural and urban people votes that will count. For APC, I only see desperate politicians trying to put a democratic makeup. |
