wolesmile: It is not plagiarism, yet he acknowledged it. Plagiarism doesn't have to be 100% before it turn into a crime. It is called theft and its a serious crime. |

Till our so-called politicians write speeches by themselves and for themselves. We will continue to experience massive looting from our treasury. |

frenchwine:. What are you talking about? This clearly shows that the president has got no message to pass across. When I was much younger, elderly people would approach us to write letter for them to their children somewhere in the city. They tell us what to write and we do exactly as they requested. The English is ours but the information is theirs. But when someone approaches you and says "just write something that is good for me".. What do you do in that case? You browse the internet and get some stuff. If at all anybody is to resign, then you should know better who that person should be. 4 Likes |

omolola15: Lots of Zombied retards on Nairaland. Presidents and Executives don't write their speeches. There are people paid to do that job. They may add, modify, sometimes depending on the occasion determine the theme and tone of the speech. |

I hereby 'abdicate' my position as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. so help me Allah! before he'll realized what he had just read his tym is up. come do debate, u run! |

DaniDani: If the 2 candidates are presented today again for Nigerians to choose their president from, the majority of Nigerians will still prefer PMB given all the revelations on Dasuki gate, patience jonathan gate etc. All you begots and un patriotic Nigerians have got to sit ur ass' down till 2019 before u can have a chance to try to undo what we currently have. PDP can never and will never rule nigeria again by God's grace. 1 Like 1 Share |

ollah2:Who researched the writings for him? Melania Trump, Wife of Donald Trump was recently (July) accused of similar offense of plagiarizing Michelle's 2008 speech. Barely 24hrs later, what happened? There are many plagiarism softwares and apps. Upload your speech there, run it and the results will hit u like Mike Tyson's punch if u ....You can search for iThenticate or PlagiarismChecker. You can even do a reverse image search on google to detect if pictures are plagiarized |

When them say make him show us WAEC result, e no gree. See the embarrassment wey him dey cause the whole country. Any intelligent person doesn't need a written speech at all times. Just use your brain and say sensible things. Make it short and simple so you don't goof. I sure say na that small boy wey him employ abi na that dirty adeshina go write the speech |

realmindz:You are wrong bro, I don't hate my president, check my writeups on NL, I am impartial... I just don't like the way he handles things, you guys may have gotten my message in the wrong context, all I am saying is that for a campaign as serious as "change begins with me", he should have showed a certain level of seriousness by settling down to review the program and then have a clear picture of the aim of the program, thereafter sit down with your media aids, writers n advisers to draft a speech befitting to such a campaign... But from all this it seems he didn't have time for d campaign, like they just sold the idea to him and he just adopted it hook line n sinker without inputting any original thoughts into it I hope this elucidates my writeup now 2 Likes |

It's needlessly over flogging this issue of plagiarism, if not for bigotry. Heaven did not fall when world leaders like Russian President Putin in 2006 was accused of stealing about 16 out of 20 pages of his economics thesis. Same applies to Hungarian President in 2012 when he was accused of plagiarizing over 200 out 215 pages of his thesis which was confirmed by the School authority. In 2008, United state President was also caught in the act. He was accused of lifting Howard Wolfson's work which he admitted. It will be just if we can admit that all we say or write are works of others, they are not congenital. They are either learned through books or verbal communication. Thus, it is not a crime to lift words or content only that the source must be acknowledged. 1 Like |
