So, it’s a situation that is not necessarily of Jona­than’s making. However, his approach to it, it’s a matter of approach. In our time we had Maitatsine, I think in the same Borno State, the same Maiduguri but President Shehu Shagari didn’t waste time in crushing them. They resurfaced in Kano, we faced them again squarely, surfaced in Sokoto State, his own state, in area that was our showpiece for rural development, irrigation, there they were finally crushed, they didn’t rear their heads again until we finished. Then when Buhari came in 1984, they resurfaced again this time in Yola and he dealt with them as well. Some people said that you can’t kill insurgency with the force of arms, but even insurgents are not immortal, except for few who are suicidal elements; many of them don’t want to die in the final analysis. So, if you face them squarely, they are bound to retreat.[/size]

The highlighted sentence is for all the fools blaming GMB for Boko Haram.
Intellectually re-tarded idi-ots who don't know the facts of Nigerian history, because they don't read like their equally intellectually re-tarded GEJ who is also blaming GMB for Boko Haram that has roots in previous religious insurgencies in Nigeria since 1981. [/size]

I hope those old enough could understand Ekwueme's stance.

He was merely making a political statement to position the Igbos optimally.

This is Nigeria where you need to shout for your voice to be heard. Your behave like a perfect gentleman/lady and you would be taken for granted.

As for where the allegiance of the Igbos lies, that should be a no-brainer.

No need entertaining false hopes...

Actually, the only person left In PDP that I give my utmost respect is Dr. Ekwueme. He has at no time been found wanting in terms of corruption and reckless statements. Its very sad that someone like Ekwueme never become the president of this country.

I must say at this point, Alex Ekwueme would perform much more better at his present age as the president of Nigeria than Goodluck Jonathan....its not a matter of age, it's a matter of passion and committment.

Though, I can't speak for others, but as far as I know, I have my own PVC and I will judiciously use the PVC to vote APC candidates in any capacity.....call it anything, but that's my resolve

Somebody opened a thread asking Why ojukwu was jailed by buhari, even though d thread was trending, the mods refused to push it to fp.

Now this Rubbish thread is already in fp, for your information, Ekwueme was sitting with GEJ yesterday in Enugu.

Bring another media propaganda.

Mend said similar things, they got abused by PDP fans, Fashola has been saying same thing for long, gets abused, Father Mbaka said same, he got abused, same as the Apga chairman. I won't be surprised if Chief Alex Ekwueme gets alot of stick for saying the truth.

It is getting clearer every day. Alot of people are dumping the shoeless jerk. The truth will come home to roast soon. Febuhari is coming.

Ekwueme was conspicuously present at the Enugu rally of the PDP.

Trust PDP, they were projecting Ekwueme as the founding father of the PDP apparently to send a clear message to Obasanjo that the PDP has moved on.

The Igbos have a unity of purpose and direction. No need for confusion.

Read Prof Tam David West;
"Religion is a personal thing and every man has the right to choose his own, or practice it the way he likes. Most of the sycophants that use religion to defame the character of Buhari are not even practicing their acclaimed self righteousness. Many of them are occultists. They kill and conduct daily human sacrifices to remain in power. Buhari is a man of integrity and I respect him a lot. But because majority of those who have looted this country to poverty are afraid to end up in jail or loose their ill gotten wealth, they chose to fabricate lies against Buhari. They hire hungry and morally corrupted scholars to do the dirty jobs on their behalf.
It is quite unfortunate that Nigerians buy all the lies they trade through the media.
This is the only country where people prefer to believe in a hear say than make a research. Only a minute population of Nigerians are willing to investigate an allegation before they draw conclusions.
Nigerians have resolved to be praise singers to corrupt leaders. We have failed to ask for accountability. Our conscience has been beclouded with religious and ethnic sentiments. Our sense of judgement and reason have been blinded by poverty. We chose to mortgage our tomorrow and the future of our children for the rice and a few Naira notes they share during elections.
All we believe is the roads, the bridges, the railways, the electricity they build only on televisions.
I always ask my self these questions:
1. Where are the roads? The Abuja - Lokoja road was awarded by Obasanjo's administration. He spent 8 years in the office. Then Yaradua and Goodluck spent another 4 years. Now if Goodluck is elected, he will be spending another 8 years. This will amount to 20 years and 180 km road is yet to be completed. Enugu - Onitsha road was also awarded by the Obasanjo administration and till date, a journey that is supposed to take 45 minutes can take you 8 hours if it rains. Enugu- PH road is on the same series. What about Uyo - Calabar route? Just to mention a few.
2. Where is the power? They sold all the NEPA to their friends. We pay for the light that was not supplied.
3. Our education and health system go bad everyday. Lecturers and Health workers spent more time at home than in the schools and hospitals as a result of incessant strikes.
4. The government failed to provide us with security. People are being killed everyday and yet government comes out to tell us they are in control.
5. Why are we pretending that all is well? It is only in Nigeria where monies develop wings and fly. $20 billion oil money disappeared and they said it was $10 billion. Forensic investigators were hired and that was the end of the story. N20 billion pension fund stolen and nothing came out of it. $9.3 million seized in South Africa and government claimed it was meant for ammunition purchase. The immigration scandal has also been swept under the carpet because the senate could not proceed with their investigation. The man behind the contract is sitting among the high seats in the senate.
Innocent people were defrauded and they at the same time lost their lives yet, we have a transparent governance.
6. Why are we praising government as if they are doing whatever with their personal money. How many people in their various communities have they provided scholarship with their personal money before they got elected? The reason they got elected is to manage our resources and not to loot us dry. One thing I know is that we will not have any meaningful development except if we make a change. Age or no age, Buhari is a better option for the present day Nigeria"

Listen to Ekweme on PDP under the leadership of the clueless: "People who founded and worked for the party are alienated by poor management of success, and those who do not have the patience, some of us have decided to find new channels to ful­fill their political ambitions. I, for instance, the chairman of the party, first chairman of Board of Trustees, first chairman from the civil society to G34 and so on, if I was not myself, I’m not bragging, I am being mod­est, I have no reason to be in PDP today. All I have received throughout the years is humiliation and neglect. When there is crisis, they remember that I’m around".

And now listen to him on PDP under late Yar'adua: " The late Yar’Adua, when he came on board as the President, invit­ed me and said he knew our party was in a shambles and he felt that I was the only person, as the person who started it at first place, that could bring people around and together and he put up the reconciliation which I handled all over Nigeria, visited people, talked to those who are disgruntled, people who had issues resolved and made our recommendations. Unfortunately, those recommendations were not fully fulfilled, President Yar’Adua himself passed on".

And yet some uninformed urchins and rabidly hateful and bigoted and dim-witted characters want us to forget all about individual leadership qualities, such as competence and character and re-elect this clueless, selfish, manipulative and divisive president simply because he is a 'southern Christian'!.

This is a staled news and have been taken over by events. Ekwueme is just one individual and entitled to his opinion, unfortunately for those posting this which news I believe is not from Ekwueme, do not celebrate becos Ibos are known to individually mind. Which no single person determines for everyone. Unlike in the North in those days (not so much now) and some parts of were one Emir/Sultan or Oba will talk everybody follows. No, this propaganda will not serve ant good.
