[b] Nobody can divide a country that is already divided. We're looking for solution for unity and progress not senseless accusations.
That said think of what you want for a future Nigeria.
Do you want an economy heavily focused on oil and a segment of the country (the North) sharing Oil blocs among their families and friends while deserting Agriculture, textile, tanning, etc that they have all the while turning a blind eye while Oil companies pollute the mainstay of the South - tropical agriculture and fishing.
If it's the former you want then by all means vote for BUHARI and friends.
Don't be deceived, participants of the Northern Agenda are not interested in One Nigeria and Prosperity for all. Look around you - look at the Oil Multinationals and their management board what do you see? It's like a Northern convention up there. Look at your schools and universities, you, a southerner would struggle, read and work extremely hard to graduate with a good grade. So you graduate only to be posted to the arid North away from the companies that you need to be close to while they (the Northerners) enjoy wonderful postings to the south where they with even THIRD CLASS from a substandard University will, because of the northern connection, make it to the big Multinationals and top govt parastatals while you with your Southern roots will come back with your 2nd class upper from UNN and will find it hard to get in.
The only one Nigeria they believe in is the one where the south is subjugated and put under their foot. Any other configuration and they will react with violence. Is this the one Nigeria you want? One where a section of the nation believe they are above the law and give themselves Sharia to govern themselves. Nigeria IS NOT an Islamic State so why would the moslem population write a new constitution for themselves, amputate poor people, execute child brides that fight back all based on Sharia. And you (Southerners) who have the power of population and votes would sit by and deceive yourselves into believing that this section of Nigeria who have already divided Nigeria under your noses actually believe in one Nigeria.
I see lots of people (even Southerners) clamoring for GMB2015 win. Obviously, you're not satisfied with the 40yr marginalization you've already experienced at the hands of these Northern Separatists.
Clamor on.
Rubbish.

Such statements are unnecessary

This is absolutely rubbish.I am one of the fan of GMB and I want him to be the next President of Nigeria but that doesn't mean that he must win.So for the North to say that power must move to the north is completely insane.

docadams:
The clamour for a return to good governance is unrelated to clamour for leadership retention or return of such by any interest group. Let it be known that the clarion call for a Buhari presidency is solely based on merit , integrity, and the willingness to serve. GEJ rode to power on the basis of sentimentalism and not on any verifiable evidence of exceptional leadership quality. That was a fatal error that should not be repeated again. The ACF should desist from being nuisance by agitating on ethno-regional latitude. It is time to deemphasis what divides us and reason like people with a desired destination.

I repeat, Tunde Idiagbon was the backbone of Buhari's government. Besides, how do you start convincing a man who heard Buhari, an aspiring Nigerian President, tell muslims not to ever vote for any Christian candidate, sharia must be practiced all over the nation, never spoke against boko haram instead encouraged them, to choose Buhari. How how how, where do you start. Merit, integrity and willingness to serve are relative words and phrase, MY RIGHTS AS A NIGERIAN MUST FIRST BE RECOGNISED RESPECTED AND GUARANTEED BEFORE WE TALK OF merit integrity and willingness to serve. Do not put the cart before the horse all because you are desperate for change. CHANGE MUST BE SOUGHT CAREFULY AND WISELY TOO. How can you SERVE effectively the one you MUZZLE, you have no regard for? Who wants to be a second-class citizen?

WHO KILLED TUNDE IDIAGBON AND WHY?

These guys are not doing GMB any favours. By putting a sectional/ethnic spin on his candidacy they will only alienate the few supporters he has in the south and ensure a repeat of 2011. His candidacy has enough problems as it is and he doesn't need any 'support' from such divisive and misguided fellows.

What more can I say. You've said it all. But to be very honest, I only engage in these political discussions to disabuse the minds of the few ignorant ones. Jonathan is as good as returned in the coming election.

poseidon12:


@PassingShot can you please let go of this agreement thing. We also heard that Ibb and Abdulsalami made OBJ to sign such agreement. Nothing came of it. In Anambra state, then governor Chris Ngige was also made to sign agreement with the cabals in Anambra to hand them most of the state's federal allocations. Thank God he did not keep that agreement. Those agreements are illegal and should not be adhered to by well meaning citizens. Only crooks would be expected to abide by such agreements. Personally I would sign such if you demand but I would definitely not abide.
It seems you do not know your right as a Nigerian. But nobody has the right to ask another Nigerian to sign that he would serve one term and hand power back to him.
The reason this is coming up is because GEJ is lacking in the performance department. However, we do not have a better alternative at this point. GEJ has made some progress. But he needs to do more; especially in the area of fighting corruption and security. And he needs to get the ball rolling in bringing us closer to confederation.
APC and Buhari are not a better alternative.

I recently saw a documentry on how terrorists treat people in cities they have over run.
Boko Haram was equally mentioned that gave me an idea of what people in Gwoza, Mubi etc are passing through.
To you, hidding somewhere in Lagos or SE, you think Jonathan deserve another 4yrs a total of 10yrs for the carnage and suffering of this people to continue.

With your vote you can make a difference but when you refuse, it wont be long before God will hear their cry and your likes will never go un punished, not even your family, continue. ...

I enjoyed every bit of your bigotry while laughing over the lies you peddled about oil blocks and chairman ship of multinational companies.
What more can I say to a man who has fed himself with baseless lies to justify his buffoonery.

I cant join issues with you in an industry I have stakes in for over 2 decades, to believe that northerners have a higher stake in oil production and services, is heightened delusion, intellectual poverty and a failed thought process.

During the peak of the Niger delta crisis, people's livelihoods and hope for a better tomorrow in their children were ruined, death and blood was our national colours in the creeks, a dying Northerner rose to the occasion and brought relative peace.

Below is the score card of your southern brother whom you think I am stup!!d enof to vote for, read and ask yourself if Boko was in the south whether you will not join national statistics.
when the south is ready to field a human I will vote not a clueless drunk.


FELLOW NIGERIANS, IS THIS THE PRESIDENT YOU DESERVE?

May the Judgment of God not befall us and our families if with our votes we deliberately return a Govt of Hunger, corruption and death to the Nigerian people. Kindly distribute through your BBM and Whatsapp contacts, enough is enough!!



November 2014, Jonathan shocked Nigerians with the news that Boko haram has taken control of 6 towns in 4 LGA’s the height of incompetence in balkanizing the Nigerian state, a week later, Nigerians were blown away by series of austerity measures handed to them for their stupidity in 2011.

The naira was devalued at the pretext of drop in oil prices but Nigerians never asked why the Naira never appreciated when the oil price was increasing?
If the foreign reserve were not stolen, Nigeria would have weathered the storm for at least 6months like we did during the global melt down of 2004 and 2008, unfortunately, the incompetence of the Jonathan administration has brought grave consequence on the Nigerian people, Inflation and high cost of energy are likely consequences.

According to Will Ross of the BBC “He said he hoped a parliamentary investigation would also find out why the country's Excess Crude Account had fallen from $11.5bn to under $2.5bn in a year - arguing that Nigeria's savings are a vital buffer against any drop in the global oil price and without this "rainy day" account, the economy is vulnerable and exposed.

October 2014; Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the Federal republic of Nigeria uses a militant Asari Dokubo for black market gun running, evident from the grounding and seizure of over $10m by the South African authorities.
September, 2014, The Nigerian Government admitted ferrying over $10m in a private jet for arms procurement, where do we draw the line between money laundering and arms procurement? I asked myself about the recent helos that was delivered by Russia recently if it was purchased in the same manner, agree with me or not, Jonathan is neck deep not just in corruption but money laundering.

August 2014: As a result of the unabated corruption in the Nigerian Military, Mutiny of July gave rise to Boko haram declaring a caliphate on Nigerian Soil, Gentlemen and Ladies, Jonathan Has once again made a history of Incompetence. Never in the history of Nigeria have we ceded territories to bandits.


July 2014: saw a president who went to sleep while neighboring West African countries battled with the Ebola virus, his negligence paid off when Patrick Sawyer brought the deadly virus to Nigeria unabated. Since August 2012, when the Ebola outbreak began, The Nigerian govt had no single emergency response plan in place.
$11m emergency fund and N480m budgeted for the control of infectious diseases in the 2013 budget never got to the Lagos state government, the Nigerian Ebola Epicenter.
Still in June, we saw the worst abuse of his Royal majesties powers when he barred APC Governors from attending a rally in Ekiti state with soldiers, meanwhile Boko Haram is still having a field day in the North.
The senate revealed to Nigerians how the president Mis appropriated over 685b kerosene subsidy fund


May 2014: [/b]left us with this shocking statement
“Jonathan, who was asked to comment on the allegations of corrupt practices leveled against some of his ministers, had said that nobody was above mistakes and that if he were to be acting based on reports on each of them, “no one will stay for more than six months in office.” [b]Mere stealing we call corruption"
Still in the same month after the corrupt tales of embezzlement and diversion of military budget, the clueless one finally offered Amnesty to a terrorist group, the first of its kind, in the world.
An Indication that the Jonathan’s administration is run by a den of thieves.

April 2014: reminded us the climax of Jonathan’s administration where he went on a jamboree while book haram held over 200 young girls, hostage,
April never ended before the Dizeani madueke’s 10billion naira scam reached a climax.

March 2014: just before the centenary celebration where Abacha of all people was a beneficiary, scores of Innocent school children were murdered in Adamawa sate.

Feb 2014: saw the illegal suspension of the CBN Gov.at a time the nation was in dire need of foreign direct investment, the Kidnap of the president’s foster father is a realistic score card on his strides on security.
January 2014, a presidential committee was set up to investigate the October scandal of stella odua who came with a guilty verdict, yet she kept her job.

December 2013: ushered the yuletide of Obasanjo’s “before it is too late”, several corruption allegations and the extremism of the Jonathan’s administration, the impunity of plundering the people’ s common wealth and the tenacity of talking drums like Abati who have earned a reputation in insulting the sensibilities of Nigerians.10 bullet proof vehicles purchased by DICON for its top brass

November 2013: the CBN Governor raised an alarm that under Jonathan’s watch, the NNPC diverted $49billion dollars, fellow Nigerians, are we not tired of condoning corruption?

October 2013: ushered a month of corruption coronation in Jonathan’s camp, where the Aviation minister coerced the NCAA to purchase 2 fairly used armored 2008 BMW to the tune of $800,000 each.

September 2013: President Jonathan took a record breaking 600 men entourage for the UN General assembly in New york

August 2013: After the billions of dollars spent in revamping the nation’s airports, skytrax world airport ranking for Africa showed Nigeria didn’t make it to top 10 in Africa neither did it make it top 100th place in the world. Whereas Ethiopia and Mauritania made it to position 9th and 8th respectively, what a shame.

July 2013: transparency international rated Nigeria as the 8th most corrupt country in the world.

June 2013: World Bank appraised him thus;

“Nevertheless, improvements in social welfare indicators have been much slower than would be expected in the context of this growth. Poverty reduction and job creation have not kept pace with population growth, implying social distress for an increasing number of Nigerians. Progress toward the fulfillment of many of the Millennium Development Goals has been slow, and the country ranked 153 out of 186 countries in the 2013 United Nations Human Development Index” the World Bank said.



May 2013: The president after wasting tax payer’s money on an entourage as long as the third mainland bridge went sleeping while his foreign affairs minister represented him in his presence during the AU summit in Addis ababa.
Just outside President Goodluck Jonathan's office sat 17 ambulances, just in case he or one of his aides fell ill. They were seldom if ever used.

No actual health-care facility nationwide had as many, and in fact a few still have none at all. But as soon as a Nigerian newspaper took a photo of the ambulances and published a story about them, they suddenly disappeared -- probably to an underground garage.

March, 2013: we witnessed the height of moral bankruptcy when Mr President granted presidential pardon to the biggest criminal in the history of our democracy, Alamesigha to prepare him for a senatorial seat.

February 2013: amidst the short fall in crude prices, the president smuggled into the 2013 budget a 2bn appropriation fund for the office of the first lady

February 2013: the office of the presidency denied vehemently that the first lady was on vacation in Germany only for them to organize a survival party with tax payer’s money. Is this the kind of leader you want to hold to his words?

In January 2013: the erst while madam due process and former minister for education challenged the charlatans of jonathans’ administration to a debate on accountability of $67b as expected, honorable cowards and pen thieves, absconded as usual


November 2012: President Jonathan approved 2.2bn naira for the construction of a banquet hall in the villa. At a time our debt profile was all time high

As commander in chief, he stood dumb while a military helicopter was used for "kabu-kabu" at oronto douglas father’s burial that error in judgment alone claimed the life of a sitting Governor. and the most brilliant NSA Nigeria has ever produced.

October 2012: blatantly refusing to appeal the ICJ’s decision on ceding bakassi, thereby throwing Millions of Bakkasi indigenes into pandemonium

refusing to cut down on foreign trips and cost of Governance, contrary to his Nationwide address of 7th Jan 2012.


October 2012: Mr president’s administration spent 1.5 billion to patch the 3rd mainland bridge, 4 months later, triple of that amount was expended again on maintenance alone, Talk about waste and incompetence

August 2012 : He said our foreign reserve is 42billion usd , is that not only on iweala's notepad?
How can you have external debt of 48bn usd and come home to deceive us that we have reserves?
How much services that 48bn plus interest annually? Nearly 25% of 48bn.


August 2012: Under his watch militants earn 10% of the Nation's revenue, $22.5m, $9m and $12.5m for tompolo, Ateke and Asari as national honors.

He twisted facts during the Independence Day speech on his fight on corruption, in contrast to what the transparency international claimed.
By august 2012, 2012 budget implementation was just 13%

over 5, ooo Nigerian lives gone, Mr president is still trading words and negotiating with boko haram, we remain grateful that a quasi state of emergency came to be, at least I cant imagine an SOE where the State Govs sit tight to control state funds while the FG fight their battle.

July 2012: its 3yrs gone and he is yet to commission from scratch a new power plant worst still fired the only human being in his cabinet who knows his onions in the power sector.

July 2012: Mr President earned a congratulatory message for implementing local content policy by importing 200 luxury brands at the cost of over 13.5 million each for a 4 day first ladies summit. While our manufacturing industries beg for patronage.

June 2012: Almost all teaching hospitals in Nigeria have no functional dialysis machine, the most sought of this equipment cost just 5m naira. Statistics has it that more than 60,000 Nigerians die yearly of a kidney related ailment, however, he jets out with his cohorts to seek medical help elsewhere.

ferma is seriously patching federal highways with a budget of over 80 billion naira, there is no coordination between, the MND, NDDC and Federal ministry of works on road maintenance, same contract is awarded over and over before the job is done.

JUNE 2012: Under his watch, the giant of oil and gas reserves is undergoing its worst energy crisis in the world.

tanker drivers alone can cripple his supply network as they wish not to talk of ordinary Niger republic coming to our rescue via imports.

In case you have not heard, Nigeria is very close to Afghanistan on security progress under Jonathan's watch.

June 2012: Education is in crisis. With adult literacy at 57 per cent, overall illiteracy at 66 per cent and more than 10 million out of the 30 million children of primary school age not in school, no serious government should be comfortable. When 40 million adults in a population of 170 million are illiterate, the country is ranked 161 out of 180 countries in the United Nations Comparative Index of Literacy 2012, and has an unemployment rate of 23.7 per cent,
it’s no longer news that only 26% of school leavers gain admission into the universities and only 5% are employed after school thanks to ASUU’s 6 months strike.

June 2012: Mr president’s economic blind men have blessed us with all time high of 37.5% inflation though his mickey mouse cbn governor is still claiming 28%, wondering what he will be claiming now that all bankers are at home, naira devalued, unemployment on the rise etc He still maintains a single digit inflation on paper, I dey laugh.


Mr president is the only Nigerian president that has not initiated a successful programme even Abacha did better with ptf while IBB with FSP and MAMSA, Mr president is still confused with ''YOU WIN''and SURE-P, with zero benefit to the Nigerian people.
on that same vein, Nigeria has the second record high job cuts within the last 2yrs, if in doubt ask the bankers and manufacturing industries.
before his ascension into power, the naira was in a sorry state of 150 to 1 dollar today, Jonathan has handed us an unstable 182 to 1 dollar

June 2012: The dana crash is a testimony that Mr president’s aviation is comatose, not even the attorney general could challenge the allegations of the dana staff in court, in a national disaster of that magnitude?
The girl could have served as a prime witness in a class action against dana
Less than 6months of inconclusive investigations, DANA air hit the Tarmac again.

Still on military, Nigeria has the most under educated junior military officers, before you ask how, Mr president is too lazy to ask him self why imo with highest national examination enrollments still have the least NDA and police academy enrollments, while borno and zamfara as educationally less privileged, have higher quota than Delta and Anambra put together in military enrollments. Nepotism and corruption at its best
Mr President is the only head of state in the world whose wife is a ministry of its own.



January 2012: Under Mr president’s watch, a 250bilion subsidy programme rose to 2 trillion naira yet no arrest, no conviction, no sack, the best miserable Nigerians could get was an AWOL attorney general after 7days of protests. Height of incompetence and corruption.

Mr President is the only president in the world whose parliament gulps 75% of the national budget as alleged by the CBN Gov. yet they still soak themselves in $625m bribery scandal.
Jonathan has not even initiated let alone fulfilling a single campaign promises except the one that he needs to surround himself with brain dead women in his cabinet.


Nigerians say thank you Sir, for your 6 wasted years of leadership.

Was Tunde Idiagbon with him in NNPC when the refineries were built, with no corruption scandal?

Was Tunde Idiagbon there when he executed his PTF projects?

I know you are amazed by his competence right?
precisely why we want him, the rest of your posts are nonsense, you are too dumb to hold an opinion.
