Then you have a lot of growing to do. People have their reasons for supporting candidates. I am a GEJ supporter, because I feel that he will correct past wrongs that have been committed against the people of East in the form of Federal government neglect compared to other reasons.

Plus, I rather have a civilian, than a former military head of state. That is the basic reason why I am supporting him. If you don't respect my views, then you can jump off a cliff.

jason123:

All I will say is, " some people deserve to be shot in the head!". I mean, how can we Nigerians justify the support for GEJ other than "he is a southerner", " he is azikwe", "he is God sent". May sentiments not run us to the ground in Naija!

Ozin:

Yes o! that is what those who are politically blind can see.but those who are politically matured see beyond these your regular choruses on nairaland.

EzeUche_:

Nigeria is a nation made up of many people. Why should I worry about another group, when my people need help? Charity starts at home, yes I shall worry about MY PEOPLE. I am not deluded in believing "One Nigeria" after Nigeria has taken so much from my people.

Abagworo is a fool, who used to command the respect of the Igbo on Nairaland, but now we see him as a fool. When your own brothers and sisters do not have respect for you? What does that tell you?

And sorry but that is the nature of the beast. I have seen too many Igbo fools die of delusions of a united Nigeria.

jason123:



On a more serous note, you should do the growing up here. All what you talk about is my people, my people. Do you not think its selfish of you?? If you get married, will you be saying"myself" all the time You have to grow up and see beyond ethnocentric ideas. Take a look ant Abagworo and Ibime, GeJ is from their ethnic group yet you do not see them shouting "Ijaw" this "MEND" that.
You need to look beyond regional and ethnic reasons before you vote. A good Nigeria will be better for us all. What if GEJ does nothing for your people till he leaves, what happens then After GEJ, what next What is the point of GEJ doing something for "your people" when the next administration will simply cancel it and you will return to square one, if not worse?? Think my brother, think!

Well, in few days time we will know where sai BB will lead to, Those who are accusing gej of over spending, I wonder if mere talking would build a power plant?

youngmonie:

Beaf:

Sharap. Does it look to that I started the thread? The way most of you dimwits jump out of your skins in fear of Beaf makes me concerned for your sanity.

Kobojunkie:

We are NOT building any plants though so where is the money going?

omanzo02:

Check the link out, this is one of the company that received contract for the construction of power plant in Nigeria, its easy to cross check the fact than assumptions, some of the materials needed for the constructions have been out sourced to arcellor mittal in belgium which has pushed the delivery date for the equipment the firm I work for ordered by 5 days, Tata steel ( formerly called Corus) in IJmuiden in the Netherlands are also manufacturing the materials for the power plants in Nigeria.

Are you a Goodluck Jonathan supporter? I think you will find this fascinating.
https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-624582.96.html

Some days ago, I explained to one of the Goodluck Jonathan admins on Nairaland on this and I was told there was NO POWER generation plants construction going on, after I showed a link, on the power reform site(where part of the reform includes Government stopping all new power plant projects),an article showing that news contracts were actually being still being given even in 2011.

Just so you know, I know that you cannot be right and the other guy right too.

omanzo02:

I am a Nigeria's supporter, so u think a reputable German company will place a false declaration or news on their website?, there is an EU law that mandate company to openly declare huge contract of this magnitude, we call it in dutch "bekendmaken", There are huge interest in Nigeria power and energy aspiration, I have a lot of friends working in Electrabel, Nuon and Suez, they openly admitted it may be too late when their management may finally decide to venture into nigeria, so far the Germans and Chines a taking the giant steps.

Alj Uche:

kobo tell them oooooooo

this people are blind please give them eyes to see

Kobojunkie:

Again, I have been led to believe, like so many other Nigerians out there that Power reform means by June/July of this year Government hands over existing plants to the private sector. So the idea that the same Government is still building plants goes against what we were told of this. If you check the link, I was told NO NEW PLANTS --- so, going by that, I can then ask where in the world the money is going if we are building NO NEW PLANTS.

omanzo02:

The government have a particular planned power stations to build, the existing ones already built will be handed over to the private sectors, and those fund has obtain for would awarded out, the existing could sustain the present energy needs of Nigeria for a stable power supply, what about the future?, the demand for power will keep rising as new industries, commerce and residential houses springs up. Note, another fase fo power plant contruction will still come.

dayokanu:
