The bolded highlights the dumbness of your contribution from head to tail.

And for the record, US presidential candidates go through 3 presidential debates.
And so? are we a colony of the united states? If their candidates want to go through a million debates must we do it that way?

On what basis does Retardeen Jonathan Goofluck use to refuse to enter a debate?

Whatever!!! your reason that he must appear on the debate is lame so get it right!

I would expect you to think that since you do not even understand your place or the place of a president in our democracy. You are too busy trying to wipe his arse for him to even notice that you have in fact started depicting him as a dictator in your many apologies for his action.

The fact is once any citizen signs up for public office, he becomes a PUBLIC SERVANT --- an actual SERVANT OF THE PEOPLE, and it goes out to do things that actually help the people, organizations feel they are still part and parcel of the system. He was able to go out to campaign ground to campaign for himself but decided it was best to miss an avenue through which he can actually give the people yet a chance to answer their questions? And the excuse he gives is that it is OK for him to discriminate against one legit group because he feels another equally legit group should be in charge instead?

I know you guys get scripts as you all seem to be recycling the same reasoning. I however suggest you pre-read the script yourself so you know if it even makes sense before you go around spewing it at people.

This epitomizes everything wrong with the Nigerian State. He will ask that the President revokes "freedom of the media" because of personal issues. Yet we wonder who those are that consider voting in GEJ.

If people like this don't understand basic social ethics by default, how do you explain to them that it isn't worth voting for GEJ?

I can't understand why some people are supporting GEJ for such a nasty ACT, Well fool would support fool sha!

GEJ is straight about this and it is very impossible for him to be available for the debate. Simple breakdown, Do you know the number of Homes without DSTV?

Local Market Traders, Ghetto or Slum Dwellers, those living below $100 a month, How can the President reached this people through NN24? That is a Big NO.

GEJ needs a Broadcasting Organisation that is available to all Nigerians via Local TV station.

For Example, in Lagos, Channels TV held a Governorship Debate some weeks ago and STV is planning the same thing, All this is irrelevant, they should have come together as one and have just one Governorship debate that would be televised by all TV Station.

Ribadu has no idea, He has no Road Map for changed but i salute Bola Tinubu, even though he is as corrupt as others, His Choice of FOLA ADEOLA really got me confused on who to Vote for.

Don't mind them. . .none of them took a timeout to come home & register and none will be qualified to cast any vote. . .they are doing all they can (critcise for d sake of criticism). NN24 has achieved all it set out to achieve.

But pray who watches NN24? Definitely not majority of Nigerians in Nigeria. Who watches/listens to/reads NTA, AIT/FRCN, etc (BON network)/Nigerian newspapers? Mainly Nigerians (and foreigners) living in Nigeria. Finally, will vote on April 9th? Only Nigerians in Nigeria (plus those who took a timeout to register at home). Why does d candidates need the debates? To sell their visions to the voters. So, which is a better platform to reach the voters?. . .Sagamite should give me the answer cheesy cheesy cheesy

What utter rubbish!

Impossible for him to do what?

What utter rubbish?

He is more busy than the President of the US that attends 3 presidential debates?

Clunking rubbish!

The president should attend all debates organised by reputable institutions to a reasonable amount.

Now here is the education. Get your pen and notebook out and start taking notes.

1) The president looks silly when he avoids and is the only one to avoid a debate all his main rivals are attending.

2) The president should attend all debates and not only one because there is never enough time to cover most issues in one debate.

3) Even if the NN24 reaches a certain proportion and not all, it still reaches a significant and highly relevant proportion of the population.

4) The people the NN24 reaches (the educated, middle-class, diaspora and the affluent) are most likely the most relevant economically to the nation and are very important.

5) The president can negotiate with NN24 or any other network to partner and expand reach if that is such a big issue.

6) The more debate the president attends the more issues can be covered and educate the citizenship.

7) Stop calling yourself wise. That is immensely offensive with your thinking level. Change your username and make sure you inform me when you have done so.

Dumbeca, do you see the answer?
