Critical Political Lessons From Naija 2015 Elections by pinkygurl(f): 7:00am On Apr 02, 2015
For the first time in the history of Naija's mockery of a democracy, opposition usurped an incumbent politician yet to complete his third sorry readers constitutional second tenure in the general elections.Does this signal that all our votes now count & change has come & elections unmanipulated as obtained in true democracy? No,because of rigging still recorded in some states( take rivers state for a start), the election was only relatively fairer.
ELECTIONS AINT STILL FREE & FAIR IN NAIJA-It only signals that GEJ is not a brutally formidable ruthless African politician like his predecessors & failed in perfectly doctoring the results.


2.The political moses to preside over naija is neither (clueless) GEj nor GMB. but in the kingdom of the blind the one eyed man (GEJ) is king. GMB is an epitome of Africa's expired recycled politicians perpetuating her problems. many retired millionaire African generals still call d shots from behind & on the scene.
He is also quite deteriorated with age that he once forgot his running mates name. the aged man ought to GO & REST.

While the elimination of federal tuition,etc is commendable though cutting government's earning, increasing corpers allowee to mouth watering sums(WOW) should be an opportunity cost to job creation. please provide enablng environment to create more jobs first. Erratic light kwa? etc. & his promising to stabilize oil prices is ridiculous. (im na OPEC?) talk less of d equally ridiculous promise of 1naira exchange@$1 not using monetary & fiscal policies, etc to keep it within lower preferred bands.lol loler lolest.GUESS HE WAS TALKING TO FOOLS.not questioning his questionable basic education tho.

HE CAN B TRUSTED TO CURB BOKOH UNLIK GEJ CLUELESS ABT BH.

although April 22 2011 pg 51 guardian article'For the attention of general buhari' by reuben abati crediting buhari wit inciting statement of making naija ungovernabl if jonathan wins,leading to northern postelectn violence& bokoharam ws retracted after GMB's libel suit noID/837/2011 later settled out of court.ex Kaduna gov alhaji lawal kaita clearly said northerners'd make naija ungovernable 4 jonathan.
funny occurences lyk bomb blast 24 hours to GEJ presidntl ambitn declaratn,a handful of bH well timed attacks to coincide with afew days to GEJ northern campaigns.headlines lyk'jonathan insensitiv for campaigning day after blast', other countless examples also reinforc DT BH in addition to being anti western educatn also has political undertones.even d worst dummy knows that.
THUS A DRASTIC MINIMIZATN IN BOKOH's rampant activities gone overboard is expected now that one of d northern elites with huge question marks on their head over BH is in power
.
UNCIVIL MAN
distancing himself 4rm Alhaji Lawal's ungoverbl statement &going by d statement he accepts,he is also totally uncivil,undemocratic & severely crude. GMB has also openlythreatened bloodshed if 2015 elections were perfectly rigged."d dog & baboon'd b soaked in blood" in his words -vanguard may 15 2012. NOTE A civil democratic general threatens court action & arrest not bloodshed like Bokoh & militants.

neither GEJ Nr GMB is naija's ideal political moses.BUT in d kingdom of d blind....GEJ thus appeals better to rational minds. Most GMB supporters (not all) are intellectuallly weak. Yet despite pockets of subtle rigging ,GMB overcame all obstacles & emerged winner----The people's true choice shocked.
INFERENCE-a huge % of Nigerians are intellectually weak.no surprise. given d high illiteracy level & number below poverty line.

Obasanjo,Fashola,Tinubu,Oshiomole etc all reputable key politicians intelligent beyond reasonable doubts supported GMB.& form d mentally strong Supporters. Baba even tore his PDP membership card. INFERENCE Its understood if these rational men support GMB,taking a cue 4rm Yar'adua's era,it simply means GMB is loyal in d right places & will b a satisfactory puppet lyk yaradua representing APC's & d Godfathers interest. OBJ's public endorsement of GMB over GEJ also confirms GEJ AINT loyal.
