The apostles of do-or-die politics in the PDP are on top of their game and they have perfected their vote-buying plans starting with the forthcoming primary in January.
Unless we want to deceive ourselves, the April 2011 election is not going to be any different from the past fraudulent and rigged elections. The GEJ/Sambo organization working in cahoots with a member of the Senate president staff has churned out a rigging manual which contains delegate votes buying and other strategies that they will use to win the primary slated for January. There is nothing bad in planning but when it is done with fraudulent undertones, it spells disaster for the country.

We are watching this one closely.

I think they have started implementing their strategy:
---Lagos State CP Akpoyibo redeployed, replaced by John Haruna of FCT http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art201012103281692
---A new crop of CPs have just been promoted with no portfolios see http://www.leadershipeditors.com/ns/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=21853:chizoba-ogbeche-abuja&catid=16:headline-news&Itemid=102

The trouble is this group of people are trying to export democracy they don't have to Ivory Coast. They forget that the reason that Ivory Coast is in a crisis today is because they constituted a truly independent electoral commission willing to stand up for what is right.

here in Nigeria the rules keep changing by the day, the goal post keeps shifting just to favour one candidate and yet we want to impose values we don't have on Ivory Coast.

I chuckled as I read your post because it reminded me of a Yoruba adage which means "if someone is going to provide us with a dress, we should  look at the quality of the attire the person is wearing."  They want to export the values they don't have which is the hallmark of hypocrisy.

"He who fails to plan, plans to fail"

So obviously he is planning, when he does get the ticket this is what he wants to do to win
