Are we voting in a General or a Democrat ? Your utterance simply shows the mentality of Buhari and all those seen to be supporting him.

We are voting a General who is a democrat. He cannot be pushed around by propaganda. He is confident of himself. He has taken it upon himself to allow his result to be published by his school to the whole world, despite failing maths sef. How many of your so called 'democrats' today can publish their results publicly?

The result will be published by Cambridge in due course. Take a chill.

But you are not going to stampede him into making decisions because of your fake outcry. Those are the qualities of strategists (the core of military commanders).

They make decisions at a strategic time.


I am sure if 50 years from now someone is doubting your WAEC result you will be taken aback. Infact you'll be angry. If you authorise your school to release the results you bagged with them 50 years earlier and they did that and you detractors are still crying foul, you will even laugh at them sef and give them some more time to wallow in their ignorance before giving them the final blow by further authorizing the awarding body to release the results to the hawks. hope you got the flow??

AlfaSeltzer:
The british already admitted that Northerners were their puppets, so I'm not surprised to see them using their institution to try and impose a certificateless man on us again.

Even if Mohamed Buhari passed a WASC in 1961, it doesn't matter because Mohamed Buhari is not running for presidency of Nigeria. I want to see the WASC certificate of Muhammadu Buhari.

ha ha ah, you are already opening another front for your lies abi you are just shameless.

Now its no longer that the hausa was not offered, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9 were not used for grading then, the certificate is fake, etc

You better quit propaganda and face real issues.

Q.E.D . . .

Nobody can push a General around. He would authorize them in due course at his own appropriate time. Not because some silly FFK and PDP is diverting attention through the issue.

23 January 2015

The University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES), now known as Cambridge Assessment, in response to requests to authenticate a candidate’s exam certificate, today said: “We can only confirm or verify results at the direct request of or with the permission of a candidate.”

“This is in accordance with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998 and section 40 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.”

The organisation also confirmed that according to the Regulations for 1961, African Language papers, including those for Hausa were set for the West African School Certificate.



NOTES:

1. Examination results were classed in grades by 1 to 9. 1,2,3,4,5 & 6 indicate a Pass with Credit; 7 & 8 indicate a Pass; 9 indicates a Failure.
2. To pass the School Certificate, candidates had to pass examinations in a variety of groups. It was compulsory to pass English Language, but not Maths, in order to gain the Certificate.
3. The number of candidates who sat for the WASC Hausa examination in 1961 was 152.
4. Our records show that Hausa was set in the Northern Region in 1961.

Well, Nigerians has obviously been inundating Cambridge with their requests and propaganda, hence they have added additional notes as found above for clarifications.

It's there for all to see that indeed Cambridge WASC used the grades 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9. And they set exams for Hausa in 1961. Infact they even provided the total number of candidates that sat for Hausa in the year in question. And for those claiming WASC does not provide certificate for candidates that did not pass maths, you have your answer there already.

Nobody can push the People's General around, I am confident at the appropriate time, he'll authorize Cambridge to release the result from source to the Nigerian public and shame all the liars.

Three days public holiday to collect PVC is too much. These guys are not even calculating its effects on the economy. We that we are broke, the govt needs the economy to run so as to get its revenues.

The importance of distributing majority of the PVCs cannot be overemphasised as well.

Well, I can suggest a 2 day public holiday for PVC distribution BUT that is after INEC has received the remaining PVCs. The distribution should be decentralised to the polling unit level and it should run for 4 days straight from Thur to Sun.

This should be preceded by loads of media advert for the pickup. If this is done, i'm sure majority of those interested in picking their PVC will do so.

This is far better than postponement of the election.

PDP's plan to postpone the elections has failed totally as the international community knows this will only lead to anarchy and has verbally and through body language made this known to Jona and his crew.

I can see the incoming president, GMB is already relating with the US and EU and establishing his foreign relations stance early... hmm, I like tht.

Diesel that they claimed has been fully deregulated, its price refused to come down. Whereas, cheaper diesel price will help the economy and make business cheaper to run as most businesses, factories, govt agencies and even Aso Rock sef runs on diesel.

Na only God go save us from this cabal that is holding the country and its leadership by the jugular.

This is getting interesting. Jona is entering panic mode. He is sponsoring loads of ludicrous propaganda in their silly NTA and AIT Ads.

Instead to tell us what they have achieved and hope to achieve again, they are spending billions on newspapers and TV Ads to demonise GMB.

What they do not know is that they are just making the man more popular and appealing to the masses.

Jonathan seriously messed up the economy.

So the minister of defence who could not say a word all this time boko haram has been on rampage quickly talks to lend support to buhari? yeye dey smell

See painment

Chai, chai, there is panic in the PDP camp, good, good, good

Politically, losing Amaechi was a blunder. Rivers state has a chunk voting population. GEJ will definitely win Rivers, but Amaechi will successfully reduce the votes he'll get significantly. Moreso, Amaechi thru his influence as Rivers governor will effectively checkmate any rigging antics the PDP will like to deploy.

It is the results of this election that will make GEJ to know the influence of those governors he lost.
Kano
Kwara
Rivers and the rest.

These states will give the opposition heavy votes. If these states were still under the PDP, they would have been able to curtail the influences of the opposition.

Jona thinks he can muscle his way using the might of incumbency.

A soldier once said this about the battle field...

"the intensity of firing does not matter, what matters is the accuracy".

CAMBRIDGE ASSESSMENT PLAYING POLITICS WITH NIGERIA

After several request made by some Nigerians as regards the authenticity of Buhari's 1961 certificate and whether or not Hausa was a subject at that time, this website:

http://www.cambridgeassessment.org.uk/news/statement-in-response-to-nigerian-presidential-election-enquiries/

came up with a response and even posted a link to a pdf file on their website claiming to be an archive file stating that Hausa was a subject.

http://www.cambridgeassessment.org.uk/Images/199936-subjects-of-examination.pdf

But interestingly, the stamp on that file dates 23 Jan 2015 while the 1961 - 1962 was hand written. It appears they are trying to protect Gen. Buhari...Nigerians are smart people, you cant fool us. I urge our historians to please come out and tell us if truly Hausa was indeed a subject in Nigerian Schools in 1961.

Kai, I don give up on u guys. The school in conjunction with Ministry of education of the state which is even a PDP state released the result, u picked holes in it.

His classmates spoke that yes, they went to sch together and sat for the exams together, and even confirmed that he was their head boy, u complained.

An old pix of the sch with him and the other classmates even surfaced, u disregarded it.

You instead decided to believe ONLY a journal that failed to list hausa as a subject offered. Note the choice of my words pls. The journal failed to mention it. It is not that the journal stated that hausa was not offered.

Infact, other journals that stated that hausa was offered even came up, u guys decided to ignore that one.

Now the body that set the exams themselves have come up to say that yes, indeed they set exams for hausa and you are still speaking gibberish.

Now Buhari has bribed Cambridge abi. Do u even in your wildest imagination think that Cambridge, one of the oldest and well respected institutions in the world can be manipulated by African politians??

I think u need to travel more, u are obviously deeply infected with the Nigerian syndrome, otherwise u should know that a lot of western institutions don't joke with their integrity and do not compromise their records.

The archives record released was stamped to depict authenticity. I'm embarrassed that you are still querying the date of the stamp. A lot of demands came in for this information, they released the information on a particular day, and stamped it to show that indeed it emanated from their archives office.

So u expect them to stamp the document on a particular day and change the date of the stamp to 1961 right? Kai, pls think with an open and not a biased mind.

You guys are just embarrassing Nigeria. That was how you bombarded US war college with so many requests. Some of those requests were even cunningly composed to trick them into providing answers in your own way. For example, someone mailed US war college that did a Buhari ever bagged a MSc from the institution? Imagine such a silly request. That person must think he/her is the only one wt a brain. Buhari never stated he bagged a MSc from that institution. He stated that he bagged a diploma there. But that diploma is equivalent to today's Masters offered by the college.

You guys are done wt embarrassing Nigeria at the US war college, it is now time for Cambridge.

Imagine your bias, Cambridge has not even published the result publicly yet, you are already crying that they have been compromised.

Ondo is my state! And we are for GMB!

Nairaland PDP guys always putting Ondo in their equation will surely cry when they see Ondo presidential results. We now detest Mimiko with passion, and woe betides anyone who associates with him at the polls.

How come it's only PDP and her agents that are clamouring for postponement??

The inability of the GEJ govt to indict and prosecute any publicly know figure for this BH onslaught is self-indicting and points to the fact that it is his own team (GEJ) that will face prosecution at the world court for crimes against humanity.

It is now during election period that they ready to fight boko haram right?

When we have been screaming that the FGN is purposely standing down and not taking action against BH, people thought we were jokers.

I will strongly advise INEC against considering any shift.

These PDP guys are desperate, they may purposely allow BH to take over the 3 states completely and still make incursions into additional states just to ensure elections are frustrated! And this is human lives we are talking about.

Jega pls don't listen to them. The lives of a lot of people is hanging on your decision. They have had 5 yrs to fight BH, and they messed up the fight and gave BH territories (more than 20 local govts, the size of Belgium, according to a foreign news report). They are now claiming they want to finish them once and for all. Stories, infact they may want BH to finish those 3 states once and for all sef.

When BH was still in Sambissa, the National security Adviser did not plan an onslaught to finish them once and for all, but now that they are occupying and siting comfortably in territories, and election is around the corner, they have now woken up and ready to finish them

Yeye dey smell

It's also on their website.

Sai Buhari

Nigeria aint breaking. Incoming President Buhari will calm nerves after the election and give us real development, peace and progress.

PDP will get disgraced at the end of this their macabre dance

http://www.cambridgeassessment.org.uk/news/statement-in-response-to-nigerian-presidential-election-enquiries/


They first started by claiming he was a fanatic...they failed.

They then tried to blackmail him using age...they failed!

They thereafter resorted to claiming he was not healthy, some devilish minds among them even went as far as forging medical report just to discredit him... they failed!

They tried to discredit his US war college diploma (equivalent to today's Masters)...they failed!
(their nairaland dogs has since left the issue to open another front for their lies)

Now they are attacking his WASC qualification.

...and u know what, they are failing already!

Thank God, the record is even with Cambridge, if not, they won't mind burning down the school or even WAEC office sef.

Now goin back to their dogs on nairaland who has been peddling information that Hausa was not offered in 1961, I hope u have eyes to see what Cambridge herself wrote down there.

I know u liars will leave that one for now and come up with another devilish lie. Silly morons

Just hold on a little bit, i'm sure the People's General with impeccable integrity will definitely authoris Cambridge to release the result to u hawks, only God knows the lie u will spin next.

Jarus:
LAST BULLET:

If you think Buhari will forge result given what is at stake (including disqualification from contesting if found true), then your ignorance is pathetic.

If you think anyone would be stupid to release a fake document bearing Cambridge - of all places - in a matter of this criticality....

If you think PDP cannot be using this to deflect attention as a political gimmick...then you're the political ignoramus here.

Thank you Jarus for taking your time to reply all the liars.

I just find it difficult to comprehend why people instead of making use of the brain God has given them, has decided to have a 'herd mentality'of goats.

Cambridge University is there for the PDP, if they think the result is fake they should go there and gets their facts to nail the issue instead of one silly FFK doing computer analysis of a computer broadsheet.

Infact instead of going to the courts to ensure the courts disqualify GMB, why is the PDP calling for press conferences??

Does this not show that they are just trying to make this a media publicity issue and not the core issue it is supposed to be??

mdgreen:
Not at all. My brother. He is the problem of this country. Take for instance the correct attacking of GEJ in all the northern states do u called that change. When what they know is violence. My guy think am now.

Buhari is not and never the problem of this country. The problem of this country are those who are benefiting from the chaos and corruption ongoing in the country.

Jonathan was not part of the problem at first until he decided to sell his soul to the devil just to get support for his 2nd term. Because of his 2nd term, he decided to turn a blind eye to those milking the country and in some instances he encouraged it.

I don't support the attack of the president's campaign team, infact I condemn it in its entirety. But it is not Buhari that mandated them to do that. They have a mob mentality over there in the North and I think they are expressing their frustrations in a wrong and negative way.

Albeit, President Jonathan and the PDP has failed the entire country and has put us in a delicate situation, and Buhari will be sworn in come May 29th 2015 to salvage the situation.

Buhari to the rescue!

He will save Nigeria from further collapse.

Kylekent59:
idiot,,someone has 56 account on nairaland and clicked like using d 56 accounts. Buhari has failed. Do u want other countries to mock us and say we have a president that is sick/that forgets something easily

You must be very dumb for you to believe someone with 56 accounts will be logging in and out of the accounts just to click likes. And you must be very immature to believe there is big deal in likes.

joeyekembele:
Look at what GMB WAS watching on the tab he held here. Women nudity. This ia enough to fail the illitrate. Hypocrisy at the highest level. How would a known sharia mogul watch a thing like this. I will call the sahara reporter to report him to his Boko Haram employees to take action. Have mallam. You op all feofle? Gaskiya, you hap disaffointed feofle wallahi.

It is haters like you that photoshopped what he was working on. This is the original picture, that is if you are not too biased to use your brain anyway.

PassingShot:
Ok. GMB only needs 25% in that state and we are sure of at least between 40 and 50%. The calculation and permutations are not affected a bit.

When any of the following permutations change, wake me:
APC Northen States Assured:
1. Bauchi
2. Borno
3. Gombe
4. Jigawa
5. Kaduna
6. Kano
7. Katsina
8. Kebbi
9. Niger
10. Sokoto
11. Yobe
12. Zamfara
13. Adamawa
14. Kwara
15. Nassarawa
16. Taraba


APC SW States Assured
1. Lagos
2. Osun
3. Oyo
4. Ogun

APC 25% or more. APC can actually win Ondo, Kogi, Plateu and Benue.
1. Edo
2. Rivers
3. Plateau
4. Ekiti
5. Ondo
6. Imo
7. Benue
8. Kogi

IF YOU FAIL TO KNOW BY NOW THAT GEJ IS DONE AND DUSTED, PREPARE FOR HEART ATTACK

This is the plain truth! Instead of PDP guys to counter what you have written analytically, you will see it is abuses they will retort to. When a dumb person does not know how to counter an intelligent and valid point, which other way does a dumb coward know than to abuse.

So is the case of this poster below

Promhize:
Lol, this has to be nominated for the dumbest post in January or are you a comedian

Oga Why dont you counter his points intelligently with your own analysis instead of sounding like a broken cord.

danielmichael:

Ya so retard..

Can yu fight de incimbent?
Idiot

gay!!!

Another silly unintelligent post. Instead of you to come out with yours you are resorting to silly mundane abuses. Typical of low IQ peeps.

KwoiZabo:
Dreamer. Find the certificate first before i can respond on this. He claims to be Mr. Integrity but he forged his results.

Soon you'll start asking for birth certificate. I thought you all started with attacking his US War college diploma. After that was put to rest, you started again on this. Pathetic lots.

jmaine:
Suddenly everyone is clamoring for the removal of subsidy but when the current admin had the foresight and courage to do so, we all stormed the streets protesting ignorantly.

Welcome to the times.

Spare us the rhetorics Bro. As a leader you must take actions when you are sure it wont adversely affect majority of your citizens. The sudden increase then was totally out of it. It would have resulted into impoverishment of a lot of people and add to their woes. And the people reacted by protesting against it that it was not well timed.

They claimed they did a partial removal then, when will it be more convenient to do a total removal if not now. It just shows that they are insensitive. If they do a total removal now, people will be used to it already than when the prices climb up again and they are now reviewing the price upwards.

Subsidy on petrol now N2.84 per litre –PPPRA

Despite the recent reduction in the pump price of petrol from N97 to N87 per litre, the Federal Government has claimed it still pays N2.84 as subsidy on every litre of the product consumed.

According to the latest petrol pricing template published on the website of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency, the Expected Open Market Price of Premium Motor Spirit, otherwise called petrol, is N89.84 per litre, while the regulated price is N87 per litre.

The PPPRA said the approved prices of petroleum products were from January 16, 2015.

According to the agency, the landing cost of petrol is now N74.35 per litre, while the ex-depot price is N77.66 per litre.

On January 5, The PUNCH reported that with the price of the global benchmark Brent crude closing at $57.94, the Federal Government was paying 90 kobo as subsidy for a litre of petrol because the PPPRA pricing template had put the EOMP of petrol at N97.90.

The Federal Government on Sunday night announced the reduction in the pump price of petrol by N10 per litre, attributing this to the decline in global crude oil prices.

The Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, while explaining the reason for the reduction in fuel price, said, “There has been a lot of volatility in the oil market in the past few months and due to this, the importation prices of our petroleum products have been impacted.

“Therefore, with the approval and directive of Mr. President, and by virtue of Section 6 clause 1 of the Nigerian Petroleum Act, it is my responsibility as the Minister of Petroleum Resources to hereby announce a reduction in the pump price of Petroleum Motor Spirit from the current N97 per litre to N87 per litre, effective from midnight of Sunday, January 18, 2015.”

President Jonathan is just deceiving Nigerians. He has no real developmental plans for this country. Why still subsidy?? I thought he earlier claimed that the subsidy regime is what is not making that industry to perform optimally and that it was rife with corruption.

Is this not the best time to finally remove all the subsidies and allow the market to run on its own?

Was that not the economics Aunty Okonjo Iweala and Diezani were preaching to us then??

hisblud:
implication: if gmb wins, and its proved in court that buhari has erred, then surely the second runner up will be sworn in and you know what, your vote has brought in gej again and tell me, apc is working for gej. Do you think pdp have not done a thorough research on gmb certificate issue before latching on his certificate. Think! See how apc has put north for gobe!

You must be very dull. The political mandate is shared btw the political party and the candidate. If APC wins the election (sure banker, with at least 22 states), and Buhari is disqualified (that can only happen in your dreams anyway), it is the Vice that will be sworn in, not some looser runner-up.

So quit the excitement Kid.

eaglechild:
That will be a dangerous antecedence.

I do not know any serious higher institution in Nigeria that accepts statement of results in lieu of certificates.

Even NYSC must sight your certificate before admittance.

Statements of result are often temporary documents which are subject to verification or used within the premise of the issuing institution.

Are u sure u are a graduate? NYSC sighted your certificate before admittance?

I served and has worked a while before going to collect my certificate. Maybe it is NYSC in South Sudan u are talking about.
