Yes, when he made Nigerians line up to buy essential commodities like Milk and sugar like refugees in some foreign land.

benagozie:

How is he coward and 'untrusted' fellow?

The very first time they considered an alliance, it was agreed that the party that does better in the early polls should produce the consensus candidate so why does Buhari feel entitled to the throne?

So much hate and frustration from the BB fans. They have seen the impending whooping and cannot bear it. All they can do is to curse our dear country. Sorry it's too late. Nigeria is blessed and there is nothing you can do to change that. We wish Nigeria well. We believe in the Nigerian project.

Goodluck to you,
Goodluck Nigeria.

Re: Ribadu Stands Down by luluosas(m): 7:42pm On Apr 14, 2011
Desperate: Arising from or marked by despair or loss of hope.

The above is the definition of desperate. I usually wonder, when people are saying that, Buhari is desperate, in regards to his Presidential aspirations. When Atiku was running against Jonathan, people said he was desperate but, since he lost to Jonathan in that Kangaroo primaries, we now understand who actually was desperate. It was never Atiku, but, Jonthan, that was desperate.

Coming to the matter at hand, Buhari for all I care can never be said to be desperate. Reasons be that, he is comfortable with his Military Pension. If so, why is he contesting then? Simple. The level of decay and rut in the system is his primary reason for coming to contest. Remember the adage that says: Evil strive when good men keep quiet. The situation of things in Nigeria today calls for a radical change. We cannot keep pretending that all is well. All is not well at all. So, don't let anyone deceive you with their FAKE smile that, it is well.
Again, Buhari cannot be said to be desperate because, he has never shown any trait of desperation in his entire life. If you doubt me, how do you explain of a former Head of State, without a single plot of land in Abuja, no oil block nor being a thriving government contractor? His seeking the presidential office is simply service to his father land. Please, never you mistake this for desperation, as he is not in government nor wanting to retain it by all means possible.

As for Jonathan, he is bound to be desperate because, the man up need to fear of falling. Having said that, his desperation is traceable to 2010, when he bluntly refused the advice of his Presidential Advisory Council PAC, not to seek for the presidential position in the 2011 presidential election. This is the committee he set up to advised him on National issues and yet, he never heed their advice. What can you say of this? Again, Jonathan is bound to be desperate because, should he lose this election, he has many things to lose. As a man whose occupation now is politics, how can he align himself with the ordinary people, maybe to seek for professorial appointment from the Universities, after serving as Commander in Chief Of The Arm Forces? He can never do it hence, his desperate move to buy all the buyable with Nigeria's tax payers money. Jonathan has course to be desperate because, he does not want to be seen as a weakling during this presidential elections. This is the more reasons you see the manoeuvrings here and there.

For you people saying that, Jonathan has conducted a free and fair election, in regards to last Saturday NASS elections, may I tell you that, the President State of Bayelsa, recorded the highest number of stolen boxes. Do you still call it free and fair? No. In fact, from Bayelsa to Sokoto, Jonathan waste Nigeria's money to bribe the Police, SSS, Returning Officers, Media Editors, opposition political parties and the common voters. Don't let me hear you ever say that, the elections were free and fair.
Even the primary election that produced him was a buy over. If not, how do you explain the reason behind the locking up of delegates from the reach of Atiku in Abuja, before the primary elections? Nigerians, open your eyes and shine it well. Do not allow the pretentious humble looking of Jonathan to deceive and mislead you into oblivion. The future of your children should be of great concern to you. Before you cast your vote on Saturday, think deeply, if this is the Nigeria of your dream. PDP is a CANCER that must not be allow to grow further, into our National life. God bless Nigeria.

Majority of the people rooting for GEJ are mostly idiots or they have relatives in PDP. How can a party rule for 12 years without nothing 2 show. Do you people honestly believe GEJ can bring positive change to Nigeria while still part of the most corrupted party in Nigerian history. Let's face it, PDP is the worst problem facing Nigeria and unless they face stiff opposition then I'll be here to remind you ignorant supporters of PDP in 4 years time why u are still wallowing in poverty stricken lives!!!!

PRESIDENTIAL POLL: INEC to paste results at polling centres
On April 15, 2011 · · In News

*Security on high alert
*As North makes final push
*Nigerians have the final say – ACF

ABUJA-INEC Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, yesterday, directed all presiding officers of the commission to paste results of elections at the polling units as demanded by the electoral procedure.

This came just as the commission began the distribution of the last batch of sensitive electoral materials to its state offices, yesterday.

Meanwhile, the nation’s security agencies are putting in place arrangements to raise the status of alertness.
The materials being distributed at press time were the ballot papers. An INEC source said the ballot papers had been with the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, in the last 48 to 72 hours but the directive to distribute them was given yesterday. All offices of the INEC had received the result sheets as of Thursday afternoon, the source added.

At the Lagos office of the INEC, yesterday, officers busied themselves receiving the materials and getting them arranged for distribution to all parts of the state.

Lagos INEC Public Affairs Officer, Mr. Ayodele Folami, said the commission would ensure that all the materials were distributed last night to avoid unnecessary hitches.

On declaration of results, Folami said apart from polling booth announcement, results of the presidential polls from the states would be transmitted to the National Collation Centre, Abuja, to be announced by the National Returning Officer.

Unlike in the past when the national chairman was the automatic returning officer for the presidential election, Folami said he was not certain if INEC boss, Prof Attahiru Jega, would function as the returning officer because it was not yet clear if Resident Electoral Commissioners, RECs, would announce governorship election results.

The INEC hierarchy recently toyed with the idea of getting highly placed citizens as was done in 2003, to serve as state returning officers. Former Vice Chancellor of University of Lagos, Prof. Ibidapo Obe, served as a returning officer for the 2003 guber polls in Lagos.

Paste results, Jega orders

Jega also directed all presiding officers of the commission to paste results of elections at the polling units as demanded by the electoral procedure.

The INEC chairman who said this when the European Union election observation group visited him in Abuja argued that this was necessary to guarantee transparency and ensure greater fairness in the polling process.
Jega who asked voters to ensure that results were pasted at the polling units after tabulation, however, expressed worries that the commission received reports that results were not pasted in some polling units during the National Assembly elections.

He said: “Once the results were tabulated, they must be pasted. This is in order to bring additional credibility in the polling process.”

Jega said that other challenges that confronted the National Assembly election included late commencement of voting process due to late arrival of materials and some missing names in the voters’ register, adding: “We hope there will be remarkable improvement by next Saturday.”

The commission chairman also appealed to Nigerians to endure the inconveniences they have to go through during the on-going general elections adding that it was a necessary sacrifice they had to make in order to ensure that the electoral process is credible.

Commenting on the commission’s preparations for tomorrow’s presidential polls, Jega noted that procedures for voting would be more strictly complied with adding that accreditation of voters would be strengthened.
He said: “Some of the challenges of accreditation have been addressed. We have also taken steps to correct the omission of names of voters from the register at some polling centres. Our hope is that the presidential election would be better conducted than what obtained last Saturday.”

He further stated that despite the expected larger turn-out of voters, “we are committed to strengthening the commission’s logistics.”

The INEC boss said he held meetings with 13 National Commissioners and 37 Residential Electoral Commissioners of the electoral body for the purpose of ensuring that the presidential poll is better conducted than the National Assembly elections.

Vanguard gathered, yesterday, that following the failed last ditch efforts of a former president, a former vice president, a former national security adviser, a former police inspector general and some elder statesmen from the North to salvage whatever was left of the CPC/ACN alliance, today’s congregations across the North offers another opportunity to drive home the message for the emergence of a Nigerian president of Northern extraction.

Whereas the Electoral Act bars all forms of campaigns 24hours to any election, “the window of opportunity a Friday sermon affords can not be discountenanced and it is a normal thing. We expect to see very conservative leaders and clerics employing that as a means of getting their message across.”
