I am here to enlighten people in the SOUTHWEST, they are following the northerners blindly. The SOUTH Westerners are talking about development while the Northerners are looking at religions aspect.

The following are few among reasons why northerners hate GEJ.
1. He is a christian: Yes is one of the reasons a typical northerner will prefer a Muslim man to be ruling over him whether that person is competent or not. (That is the main reason)
2. Born to rule mentality: Any average northerner thinks to rule is his or her birthright they go to many extent to seek power. If i may asked people from SOUTHWEST is their no competent christian candidate from the north? Think about it.
3. Why did northerners like Buhari compare to Atiku? The simple answer lies to the fact that Buhari is more Religious compare to Atiku.

Stay their and be saying sai Buhari for change.

If APC have good intention for Nigeria and the Change they are Clamoring for they would have field the likes of Fashola, Oshiomole, Ameachi. for Presidency.

I am not in any way a supporter of Goodluck but Buhari is not a better alternative.

I reserve my vote till i see the likes of Fashola, Oshiomole, Ameachi.

Mind you i am from far north born and brought up their. 80% of my friends are Hausa/Fulani.

Anybody that think i am GEJ fan should read this thread.

Waiting for the APC e-warriors to attack the op

Op, you carefully highlighted the mind of millions across the country. Those who think they know always learn from others. Atiku is more experienced in the school of goverance than buhari but religious fanatism can't allow average northerners adopt him as their candidate. Unfortunately, the selfishness of one man is dragging the south west into this power game of the north.

There is nothing like hate or love GEJ did not play the right political game by thinking ahead till 2015. If he was a smart politician he should have settled the Yorubas and he did not . Personally I do not support him but I do not support Buhari. The issue is not even whether he has performed but he is not awake politically. Who does he have on ground in SW? Bottom line he did not plan ahead if he did he would have realized that Yorubas are more important to him than he has shown. Who is the biggest Yoruba politician in his government? Okupe? When Bankole lost out instead of rehabilitating hiim he started harassing him. Now I do not support Bankole but from the perspective of a strategic politician who thinks ahead those are the kind of people he needed. All the PDP governors who lost election or people like Gbenga Daniel,Iyabo Obasanjo etc he should have rehabilitated for his own interest
Secondly his quarrel with Amaechi s 100 % unnecessary an own goal. He has made what should be easy to be unnecessarily difficult. He does not have good advisers. The maxim goes keep your friends close and your enemies closer. He disregarded this very important imperatie. He might find out that incumbency is not part of the weaponry of minority tribes. How many Ijaws are in the Nigerian Army? Or is it Minimah that will defend him when he rigs the election. We have seen it all before he will rig and we will have another June 12 situation. I hope he is not kiilled.

My brother i talking from experience. Nobody talk about GEJ achievements or lack of achievements in the north. The fact he is an infidel they don't like him SIMPLE.

The North fears GEJ 'cos he is a Christian, very educated and he prays. Just like satan, they are determined to challenge the CHRIST in him. The Southwest is voting enmasse for GEJ. Don't you see WS opening up the gate of Yorubas' support and acceptance for GEJ? WS is a Field Marshal leader of the Southwest. Tinubu is not a Yoruba leader but a leader of APC. GEJ IS NOT A THIEF AND HE IS NOT CORRUPT. GOD WILL DO WONDERS FOR NIGERIA THROUGH HIM.

Nonsense post, dey hate him of a surden becos they just realized dat he is a Christian? Didn't they vote for him in 2011?
It is people like u dat are even creating more enemies for JEG. U will insult Northerners and their religion and u will expect dem to vote JEG as if it was only Christians dat voted for him in 2011.
Even in d next election, do u think only Christians' vote can make him win ele
election? Why Hv u people reduce him to President of Christians alone?
U people need to adopt another methodology that will make him acceptable to all Nigerians rather than embarking on religious character assassination which is order of d days in Nigeria today

jonathan ask them to go school,
that is why they no like him.
they prefer to sit under mango tree
and do boko haram.

My brother GEJ has did everything possible to please the north but all his effort has been abortive. If you did not share same religion with northern muslim just forget you can never impress them.

Adamu Muazu, Sambo, ahmadu Ali, bamanga tukur, Lamido of Jigawa and co must be from the South. Stop trying to play this tribal card, its not good.

Watching.

You see, reason well Buhari won in all the states in the core north. If i might ask you did he win in Kano? Zamfara? and many more reason well before you talk. Though sorry to say APC supporters loud mouthed and low in reasoning.

Mind you i don't like Goodluck administration but your party messed up in selecting the presidential canditate.

Foolish OP, so vice president namadi sambo also hate GEJ? Alhaji adamu Mu'azu, PDP national chairman hate GEJ too?

Heheheeeheeeee GEJ TILL 2015

Story,the matter of elections is already a finished one,just the date people are waiting to come

Even me i am tired of Jonathan, but Buhari is not a better option.

since it's all about opinions that everybody seems to have these days...here's mine:

from d op to about all silly comments here within, it's also my opinion that anybody who arouses d religious sensitivity of others in political issues is simply an eediot!!! simple.....

greatestman:

Why is Buhari not an option?

So northerners hate Jonathan?.
I completely accept this fact and wont accept any election figures giving him even up to 25% of the votes cast in any state of the north. That would be serious rigging.

Never an option...

Jonadumb don turn our youths into certified disgruntled elements and religious bigots... smh..

barcanista:

He don't have what it takes to rule this nation. People are just pushing him for their religions ulterior motive. Don't you think Atiku will rule better than Buhari?

What are we saying and what are you saying. ? By the way did you go to school ? What is had did? Do not allow that nonsense follow you into the New Year. Mumu

You may think so because maybe, you don't stay in the north or you don't stay in far north.

barcanista:

Because he does not have what it takes to lead a 21st century nation aspiring for greatness.

You know that right?

By 2050 nigeria will have a population of 400 million. We have to create wealth now for the future generation otherwise there will be crisis in the country.

Nigeria leader needs to know the relationship between wealth and social harmony, it will be impossible to get buhari to comprehend that.

What does it take to rule a 21st century nation that is different from what is needed to rule a 20th century nation?

Far from it, no one is pushing Muhammadu Buhari except the masses in the streets. As for Atiku, I will [size=13pt]NEVER[/size] vote for him to preside over the affairs of Nigeria. Buhari is the people's man.
