Why didn't you open this thread last year

Flets:
You dont get it.

The real issue is the form of politics APC played into office.

The denigration of the office of the president, the use of unspeakable names to describe GEJ which was alien to our polity, the constant bashing of every govt move, the lies and propaganda.

These called for a lot of emotional investment to our politics.

Right now, more than ever......APC succeeded in making us all fanatics and unfortunately along ethnic divide.

Nigeria might not recover from the politics that has been played in the last 2 years. More name calling, more sabotage and more negative politics is on its way.

Its way too late to call for moral evaluation.

This is in contravention to the African Charter on Human Right which deals with FREEDOM OF SPEECH and the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria.

APC started the abuses, there ain't gonna be any truce.

As you said, revenge is sweet. Even if buhari/apc makes a law that will make insulting the president and his office a crime, na then e go worst pass.

I will personally put guys under pay and their job will be to find fault in anything he says or do and always call him unimaginable names.

It's time to pay them back in their own coin until they can't take it anymore.

I did my brother. As with my policy I align with the position of my comrades irrespective of my own personal opinion on this subject

barcanista:
Yes I did. I am an apostle of freedom of Speech as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution and the African Charter. If anyone feel libelled he should go to court

My position on that cannot change. Allow people their freedom. Personally I have been subjected to abuse, insult and ridicule. All I do is "ignore". In fact, sometimes people try to attack on my behalf, I tell some of them to allow the person to exercise his freedom.

Tecnonews24:



I often time hear them say, PDP don't know How to play opposition. I guess they have selective amnesia, otherwise they would have know that PDP have never be in opposition. I guess u guys would find out soon enough.

I know apc can't take the heat they gave GEJ, they forgot say na turn by turn. I'm looking forward to the day they will make a law that will try to cap what people says about the president/presidency.

From the particular day, they will see a new kind of insults and name calling that will trail them.

They where enjoying the names and abuses they gave to GEJ, now is our turn to enjoy insulting/abusing their government.

Even if GEJ comes out and apologise on their behalf, it won't end.

They should learn how to live with it because na them start am first.

The Daura President name sounds simple and respectful to my ears compared to what I have in mind when the chicken comes home to roast.

Nobody in apc will be spared.

I urge all the progressives on nairaland not to reconcile with any tanoid. If not I won't recognise that person as my fellow APC member

Ezenwammadu:
