Smart footballers know this: Be careful how you kick the ball to your goal keeper, you may just be scoring an own goal.

For those who don't know RIBADU's running mate is card carrying member of PDP. I'm not aware that he has resigned his membership. He is a member of GEJ's Presidential Advisory council and you want me to vote that ticket with the burden of GODfatherism, the same Godfatherism that has hindered FASHOLA.

if there's any breath of FRESH AIR, it is BB2011, we the people are the GOdfathers, and this is the year of the NIGERIAN voter.

My warning to Nigerians is if we refuse to bring this revolution to bear through the ballot box in April, we may have to do it the hard way like LIBYA, EGYPT etc.

Are you in any way suggesting that ACN and CPC are in the same team and CPC just took a powerful shot at their ACN manned goal post?

[size=28pt]ACN and CPC Halal![/size]

Una too funny, abeg the Pastor spoke the truth so now he's a mad man. Are u guys more informed than him about what transpired between ACN and CPC? He's going on what he knows and you noise makers are spouting information based on rumors. Pastor please say the truth and shame the devil!!!!!!!!!!!!

"The greatest danger to democracy today is not the PDP; it is somewhere located in the South West," he said, while noting that the details have already been provided by former Sokoto State Governor, Attahiru Bafarawa, at a recent public event.

^^ Your earlier post is better than this one.

The point is that Bakare is wrong terming Tinubu "undemocratic" because a political merger did not happen. Bakare does not seem to understand the context within which the word "undemocratic" is apt . In a merger or alliance , positions are reached through choice, negotiation and agreement . No one can be forced to agree to a deal that will not benefit them  because that , in itself , is "undemocratic" .We will never be privy to all the negotiation that went on. We were all dissapointed because the merger did not happen but those involved know why they made the choices they did . It is their prerogative totally and nothing brings democracy, or the lack of it, into this . Bakare should at least attempt to understand terminology before using it. People should therefore not back his gaffes blindly because they support him. Buhari has been fantastic through everything . he has behaved , above everyone else, with the highest grace and decorum. He refused to engage in the blame game with anyone regrading the crash of alliance talks. Bakare should learn from Buhari.

Tinubu is single handedly pulling down ACN - i have said it before" the idea of one man controlling a political party is nonsense". ACN is ever worst to PDP given THE conduct in opposition. Tinubu should take the backseat and watch things  - Ribadu would likely gain more grand if Tinubu get off his back.

Funsho Williams was the most honest, down to Earth, bloody honest guy. He was someone with vision, a man we would have voted in as President one day.
Anybody could walk into his house and get an audience, unfortunately that was what his political opponents did, and cut down a great man.

One day, Funsho Williams killers will be brought to justice.

Tinubu is indeed, the greatest threat to our democracy.

Can we all slow down here abeg, the PDP camp must be laughing their asses out, they have tried many tactics and seem to think the making the opposition fight is the way to destroy them.
I know Tinubu is not silly neither is bakare, it can be a good and bad thing that he spoke out because the SW is extremely extremely important. If what we want is a real democratic government then the CPC/ACN should realise that it is time to go back to the negotiating table and look at the facts before them. It is a good thing that they did not form any alliance before the campaigns, it has shown both sides a few truths.

1. At first I agreed that the CPC did not have a strong political base, while that might be true for lower positions, the fact remains that Buhari is way way way way more popular in the North than Ribadu for that reason alone I think the ticket should be ceded to him.

2. The electorate in the SW is obviously smarter than those in the North, it would be easy for them to vote ACN for governor and CPC for president, this would be a hard feat to pull off in the North where literacy levels are lower.

3. It is very obvious that the battle for the presidency would be in the SW, politics is a game of interest. Tinubu should look at the numbers and demand for something more realistic from the CPC. There are a lot of compromises that would go far to help both sides which they would not get in a PDP led government. Each should consolidate their own bases as a regional party, so that they could forge an alliance with another group if they are not satisfied.

This is the only way in my opinion, there is no need to fight over it, we just play into the hands of the enemy.

sirmustyla:

what is wrong with Bakare selecting who should be vice to Buhari? whether in CPC or ACN. Bakare is doing what is doing because there is nobody there to do it.One thing more you should know is that he is not doing it as an enterprise like so many Nigerians example Tinubu.Bakari is doing it for the love of the country so when you criticise him come small small.As for Tinubu,I think he should be in jail.A thief is thief, but being an international thief is even worse.Tinubu is an interpol case. Those of you on this forum who are supporting him should go and check his file.
