Amanpour: Nigerians is faced with the difficult option of choosing between a failed president and a former military dictator with a bad human rights record.

BUHARI : All those things you mentioned were done under military administration; if we did not suspend the constitution then, it would have been difficult for us to operate under those circumstances. So I do not think I should be judged as an individual for those things that happened then.”

This guy has told us that he cannot function properly under the constitution.
We still have the constitution, why does he want to lead us with the constitution? He cannot function properly with the constitution.

tellmoon:
So many pple missing the General's point. All he is saying is, pple who are shouting to high heavens that his decisions had no recourse to the constitution are not being fair in their jiudgement. As a military administrator, u can not work with the constitution which is civil. It does not however implies that he would embark on the same track of suspending the constitution under a civilian administration.

Story! You're marketed based on perceived but fraudulent integrity from your military government but will not want your atrocities mentioned. How pretentious

This a very good indication that the auto policy that is just taking off will be killed by APC.

Just like Buhari killed the rail project in Lagos, they will kill all the good economic policies that are on ground.

Vote wisely! Nigeria is undergoing visible change.
Say no to fraudulent change.

GEJ 2019

The US should keep their report. We don't need their face-saving report to know that JEGA was not ready and was compromised.

ellechrystal:
. Oh wonderful. How ve u been?

I have been good. Just not comfortable with silent treatment though

ellechrystal:
Hmmm

mmmmH

I have learnt run like Usain Bolt so keep
How was work today?

barcanista:
Far! I feel we should draw a line between criticism and total opposition. Reading Gani Adams, he looked at this from a different perspectives. I may not agree with some of his position but saying that he has been paid based on his position is over-flogging which I think isn't too appropriate.

That's good man. I have been preaching that for a long time.

barcanista:
Haba bros, wetin Gani do na? he only spoke his mind.

Tell him oo. How far?

bizlifelines:
I had to read this interview twice to be sure that the headline is misleading. The appropriate title should be. "Gani Adams endorses Jonathan!"
What I found strange is that Otunba Adams is not bold to publicly state this. He knows that afenifere made a political blunder by not capturing the dominant political sentiments of the yoruba. I expect him to be the "third alternative" in yoruba political ideology.
He has made his choice.

He endorsed Jonathan long ago. You missed that bit.

barcanista:
Then she need to look for who she offend for village

Haha

barcanista:
why una de reject her na? Okay, na Lamentation girl? Then we give Musiwa

Musiwa will kill her with maps ooo..

ellechrystal:
It doesn't make him d winner o. N wait until he blows one funny English n d whole world laughs at him.
Don't b too excited,

He kept pausing like .....

barcanista:

Why Not Omenka?

Why Not Caseless?

Why Not Donphilopus?

Why Not AgabaI23?

Why Not KingofDevil?

Bros, make him go with seun. Her wahala go too many no be too much like her many complaint posts on nairaland

xlnc2324:
I doubt if you watch the interview with plain, neutral mind. How could you say that was 'rehearsed '?

You watched it with open mind?

I told you what
i observed in the opening 1 minutes. Confirm or reject!!!

xlnc2324:
Would you equally say that she, this same woman, who interviewed GEJ couple of weeks ago did 'rehearsed' with GEJ? No sentiments please!

Can you discuss the points I raised before bringing GEJ into it. What do you think about the point I raised?
Did not see GEJ's interview and you an I know well that GEJ does not need any rehearsal with prepared questions. He has so much to talk about and he can answer his questions.

barcanista:
I see your short sermon for my mail. I don reply you

Haaa, you wan try?

barcanista:
Oga, yu de bo-bo me?

Not at all.

ellechrystal:
Christ

Jesus

barcanista:
You no even call Presidential appointment? Chief of Staff to the President or Petroleum Minister. I can manage Finance and Power though

Hmmmm, lol
You like better thing. Let GEJ win first. Lets campaign for him to win. He is not perfect but he is on the right tract. Then we will see how it goes. Deal?

I have not read through everyone's comment but I just watched the first 58s of the video and I have made this observation.

Anchor: Your excellency you are very welcome to the show. I know we met here 4 years ago. We are here again and I want to ask you general Buhari, Why do you want to become the president of Nigeria. What is that thing that you've said to yourself, yet again, 4 years later, I want to come back and I want to run this nation. Why is that?

Buhari: I never said I will retire from partisan politics. And as a partisan politician, my supporters think I should present myself to my party so that the party will decide whether I should get the ticket to participate or not.

Anchor: You are saying that you were pushed into it
Buhari: I was persuaded into it.




The first response smarks of a rehearsed response. He was explaining as if he was asked why he came back after he said he was not going to contest for presidency again.
The anchor simply asked to why he is still interested in contesting. She did not mention anything about his promise not to contest again.....

lol

barcanista:
I'm with Nigeria and not with them. Well, how do we build from the outside when we have a lot to gv? No one promised anything though.

You are very right on that.
Unfortunately, I am not a card carrying member of any party so I cannot even influence LGA appointment lol

We are together for Nigeria. We are looking for the best for Nigeria
Good to know you are not with them anymore

barcanista:
You go give me political appointment?

Is that a condition? So you're with them because of appointment? Kai my friend, you should take Nigeria first.

Come lets build this country together.

barcanista:
I no be like you na

How you take know? You cannot talk about what you don't know.

When are you switching to Jona's side? Buhari has disappointed you too many times

barcanista:
You and AgabaI23 sha... Una just de use GEJ 2019 to do bumper to bumper. That guy JT be like electric pole o, make he no injure you

Is that what you have been doing with Berem and Obiagelli? Please don't corrupt us, we are decent people.

ellechrystal:

queensmith:
No I'm speaking of any project that's 100% GEJ, please name one.

What a question
Government is a continuum and is supposed to be a continuum. The reason why Nigeria is replete with uncompleted projects is because successive government start their own projects to make money or in other to take full glory at the detriment of the society.
What is the point starting new projects when their are ongoing project which is important to the nation?
From your question, it means that APC will dump all ongoing projects and sweep them away with their brooms. Nigerians please vote wisely

An overall estimate is often sufficient, experienced contractors can tell you how long a project will take (I'm strictly speaking infrastructure projects here) extra cost and delays may be inevitable if we don't negate the quality of the job. Again I ask you to name one worthy of a federal government

You did not say anything different from what I said so you repeated it in a different way.

When Jonathan took over after his predecessor Umaru Yar’Adua died in 2010, he ordered all 12,000 unfinished contracts to be reviewed, hoping to salvage some, said Rowland Ataguba, a rail specialist who served on the Presidential Projects Assessment Committee set up to check the list. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/10/nigeria-seeks-to-end-the-curse-of-unfinished-projects/

Let's start with GEJs railway scam, which I understand wasn't started by him, hasn't been finished and doesn't even do what was promised?

You actually call the Federal rail project a scam? What are going to call Amaechi and Fashiola's projects?
You cal a scam a project that has made it possible to travel from Enugu(East) to PH(SS) to Gombe(NE through NC) to Kaduna/Kano(NW) to Lagos(SW).

PH-Gombe was commissioned last week. Why is it a scam? You have seen videos of people travelling with. You have seen video of the spycam guy who went to see his babe in Kano etc. Are you being sincere?

The lagos- Kano partly awarded by OBJ so was the Abuja rail project. But YarÁdua suspended them

That job was so large that the committee decided to select only a few key projects from the pile, with the Abuja rail project among them, Ataguba explained.

The transit system, if it is finished, could help alleviate Abuja’s terrible traffic congestion, particularly bad on the main routes into the city centre.

The project dates back to 2007, when former president Olusegun Obasanjo signed a deal with China that included the promise of a $500-million loan, with $341 million in matching funds from Nigeria to build it by 2011.

Yar’Adua, shortly after he replaced Obasanjo in 2007, suspended nearly all of the so-called “oil-for-infrastructure” projects that his predecessor signed with Beijing, including the Abuja light rail deal. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/10/nigeria-seeks-to-end-the-curse-of-unfinished-projects/

GEJ redesigned and reawarded the remaining sector. You call the rail project that carry so many people scam? From Enugu to PH is 650 naira and you call it a scam?

t belittles a federal government to send students abroad, how has he improved education at home?

The agropreneur scheme is also likely a scam, I know not one farmer that has benefited from this (I know many many farmers!)

This apparent lottery scheme you speak of, supposing it existed and wasn't just another one of GEJs 419 tactics, how is this a more sensible policy than putting the money towards plugging the corruption gone wild under his watch?

Anything you have not seen or do not understand is scam or it is a scam because it was done by GEJ?

You call YouWin which is one of the most merit determined contest that is based purely on the sustainability of a business plan a scam?

Oh Queen! Your majesty Queen Smith,
I won't continue with this discussion for obvious reasons. You don't have facts. You are dealing with conjectures.

Look at this thread for achievements
https://www.nairaland.com/2117791/achievements-jonathan-sambo-administration-pictures/11#30572633
It may help you. If you really want to be convinced, take a trip by rail or go through Benin-ore, Abuja-lokoja road, Enugu-Ebonyi

We don't care about GMB's certificate.... Even if we did, Cambridge University College, not Waec, was the body that organized that exam.. So Waec has no business telling us any crap about GMB's certificate

Talking about certificates, see where the clueless fisherman with all his certificates has landed us


GMB WITHOUT REMORSE

He should ask Cambridge to release his result. Is that too difficult to ask?

barcanista:
