In a free and fair contest Jonathan, OBJ and late Yar'Adua cannot floor Buhari even with his meagre resources. That is the kind of cult followership he has on account of reasonable people who forever believe he has what it takes to clear the Augean Stable. If at all you know what that means.

In free and fair Election, Buhari can only win some few States in the North. I wonder how he won about 12 States on the previous Elections.
Call on Jega (Inec Chairman) to do more in the prevention of frouds, so as to have a Successful Elections.

darne:
Already knew this is his destination,....Good move tambuwal !


GMB2015

Buhari will be more easier to defeat.
It happened in 2003
2007
2011
and is about to happen in less than 3 Months again.

zubby29:
finally,dis a good news,he stands a better chance of winning dat 1

Yeah, becouse no oppositional candidate can beat GEJ. Buhari should also contest for governor of his State 'he stands a better chance of winning dat 1'

Idrismusty97:
@bolded that is the point! Just because they aren't comfortable with the Arabic inscription doesn't means it should be removed. In the same currency all the other languages are written signifying the worth of the naira e.g Nàírà Méwàà, Naira Iri and Naira Goma. Notice both the Yorubas and Igbos write in Latin alphabet. If the Hausas preferred to write their language in Arabic alphabet why stop them?

Then, the Hausa Language should be cancelled. How can they have it in Hausa and still have in Arabic again, is that not much for them? They should take one and leave on. Or else, let the Igbos and Yorubas also choose their second language. We the minority are also considering having ours too. Nigeria is for all of us.

What do you mean? Backfire? How? What more than what you and your Boko brothers are already doing?

I have actually been thinking about the word 'backfire'.
I dont really know what he meant, but whatever, may God protect us o.

politricks:
*hiss* As if the emergency rule have stopped Boko haram for bombing everywhere.

A total emergency rule would have been better, but some poeple would read politics into it.
GEJ till Buhari clock maybe 80.

nigerianewsbeat:
Really? Give us more facts, thanks.

They are just too much, but i can still give you some... After reading all, i may still add more to you. The North has been killing Christians and Southerners since 1953.
Boko Haram is actually not a new thing.

as far back as May/June; July/August;
and September/October 1966 when Moslem jihadists slaughtered 100,000
Christian Igbo and other Easterners in
Northern Nigeria. We suspect that Dora
and her parents may have been
escapees from Northern Nigeria during
the jihad of 1966 in Northern Nigeria

BlackPeni5:
Now they know whats up...Desperate group of people. Hope they don't implode before the elections.

So Obasanjo is now an APC Elder that needs consulting?

But the truth is Nigerians really want change not because they hate GEJ but because they want something different.

GEJ is the real change we need for now, till we get a better presidential candidate. But for now, GEJ is the best.
Sometime, the word change can be in the negative.

intergral:
How did the emergency rule help those states?? Nothing rather than make things worse......
This is why everything that goes on there is under the control of the military and GEJ so nobody should blame the governors of those states......

GEJ what have you done with my sweet old 9ja #sad-much

'sweet old 9ja'? Has nigeria ever been sweet before?
Nigeria will only be sweet when they stop killing Christains In the Northern part of the Country. It has been happening since 90s.

DRealGeesam:
Such people are right. It is all about 2015 election.


My brother,
Work has just started o.
Watch and see how good news will keep flooding the news media now.
But why are people shouting Gej till 2019 because of this news? Is there anything special about him deciding on emergency rule in the affected states or am i missing something?

The part that says he might decide to place the states under Full military control makes me wonder why he is just considering this now. If he feels it is the best step to take, why wait till now?

It has always been 'GEJ till 2019' no bi today e start.

BobbyRobson:
what is the meaning of fulani?

Here in spain we dont know what it is because i school here.

Dont worry yourself... You dont need to know.

berem:
Is there ever gonna be good news coming from this country again?
Thank God I am schooling in France.


RIP to the dead

after the school nko? Wont you return home?

braine:
Abeg, How many votes do 'Afenifere' and 'Ohanaeze' have?

They have one vote each, but they can influence their people to also vote what they want.
99.9 per cent of Igbos will vote for GEJ, while 60 - 70 per cent of Yoruba will vote for GEJ. GEJ remain the President untill 2019. God bless you.

Icon4s:
Laudable! Marvellous! A particularly section of the country think they can bomb their way into power. But God pass them.

I have been saying it that the terrorism is helping Good Luck gain sympathy. If after they bomb their people and still lose the election Gobe go dey o.

Oya Chinedu, Osas, Femi, Preye, Akpan wey dey for Awusha land make una dey come home o. Something go happen o.

hmmmmm... Truelly, may God help us.
I'm yet to see what will stop GEJ come 2015.
80% of the supporters of Ex govt of Kano (Shakarou) are strongly behide GEJ.
By next Month, more than 50% of APC supporters Nationwide are coming back to PDP...
APC will be put to death after Dec 3 next month.
You can ask Aminu Tambuwal, Speaker of the House of Representative, incase you disagree with me.

hmmm... Na Techno Phone Fashola dey use?

GEJ till 2019

I am ready for Buhari- Atiku 2014-11-13 16:12 Abuja - Former Vice President and All
Progressives Congress (APC)
presidential aspirant, Atiku Abubakar
has said he is fully prepared to
challenge former Head of State,
Muhammadu Buhari in the party’s presidential primary. Abubakar in an interview with an
online medium, The Cable,said the notion that the APC’s presidential ticket
would be given to Buhari during the
primary is a wrong perception. He said having participated in many
primary elections, both direct and
indirect, he stands a better chance than
Buhari, who has never participated in
such exercise before. Also read: Jonathan no match to APC aspirants- Atiku He said he is really prepared for the
primary, nothing that he is the only
aspirant, among the five aspirants
vying for the party’s ticket, that is
crisscrossing the country to woo
delegates of the party. He added that the APC is unlike the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) where
governors forced delegates to vote
even against their conscience. Read more at The Cable,

GEJ: Nigeria Best President

I pray for more confusion and disagreement among them, so that before they will realised, GEJ must have been decleared the Winner of the 2015 election...

Efforts by the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to broker
a consensus agreement among the presidential aspirants from the North hit the rock on Tuesday as most of the aspirants refused to step down. The meeting, summoned under the auspices of the APC northern caucus and some elders from the North, could not reach any agreement as some of the aspirants failed to turn up but sent representatives. A party source told THISDAY that the meeting was presided over by the Deputy National Chairman (North), Alhaji Lawan Shuaibu, with former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, in attendance. Others at the meeting included Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara State, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal. THISDAY gathered that Atiku, who was apparently the only one who attended the meeting out the four presidential aspirants, did not buy into the idea. The former vice-president had earlier opposed consensus arrangement, insisting that the idea of a few persons sitting down to pick a presidential candidate was a flaw process which would deprive the party members of the opportunity to make a choice. Also, other presidential aspirants like the Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, and Sam Nda-Isaiah were said to have excused themselves from the meeting. When Nda-Isaiah was contacted through telephone on Monday on the scheduled meeting, he said he was not aware, adding that the issue of consensus had been put to rest since the party set in motion a process for the emergence of its standard bearer through primary election. “I am not aware of any discussions on consensus. What I know is that all the aspirants are busy perfecting strategies to help them win more delegates votes during the primaries. But this is not to say that I am opposed to initiatives that can put the party in the best stead to win the elections. For me, I will say that I am ready and set for the presidential primaries,” he said. However, the leaders have not given up hope on successfully midwiving a consensus as they have scheduled another round of meeting where hopefully all the northern presidential aspirants would be present. It was learnt that since the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has ceded its presidential ticket to the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan and with the president’s acceptance of the offer through his public declaration yesterday, the APC is now more desperate to get its leaders, especially the presidential aspirants to forge a united front. This, according to a source, said was to ensure that intra party crisis does not erupt after the end of the selection process for the presidential candidate. “We need to do everything possible to avoid a rancorous primary election. This is the only way we can match the PDP which had already started rallying support of its members around President Jonathan in readiness for the 2015 contest. APC cannot afford a divided house as this will scuttle its chances of dethroning the PDP,” he said.

BRAV0O:
for ur mind ode!

Dont worry, i will quote you after 2015 elections.

BRAV0O:
Off course, nigerians can all see now that JEG is a straight gangster , he doesn't care! He actually tell us all he's aware nigeria is at war , but all that is not his ambition



He's a straight gangster!




Wake up guys

GEJ must rule you again!

chimerase2:
Is now dat I knw de plans of the northerners against mr.president
Each time the president want to do sometin big they will start bombing and killing their selves
All in the name of weakling the morale of GEJ
Mr or miss op I understand ur point
But mr president can't continue postponing this fins all becos of the Abokkis diabolical act.
Am using this medium to sympathise with the beraved family
One tin for show God will surely expose the enemies of nigeria

Amen!

firstEVA:
Is Jonathan the first president of Nigeria? was obasanjo not a president? was the state of violence as it is now? was yaradua not president though for a short time, did he not handle the situation of the Niger Delta militants? I really don't understand why Jonathan in incapable of handling the situation, its very shameful.

Those who think Nigeria is their personal proparty gave the mandate to Obasanjo and to Yar'adua. Now they are politically Irrelivant because GEJ has made them lost calculation.
Somebody up North said, ''we will make Nigeria ungovernable if GEJ wins'' but unfotunately, only some part of the North is ungovernable.
GEJ till Buhari clock 76.

naijaking1:
You threatened violence if the president chooses to seek election as a free citizen of this country.
You sponsor violence, because you suspect the president will declare to run
No you ask , if it's ok for him to declare , because of the violence you're causing
If GEJ is not allowed to run because of violence, forget about Nigeria, nobody would ever run and win elections again, because of guarranted violence from the opposition.

I have said it earlier... It's either GEJ win or Nigeria ENDs. One nigeria is froud!!!

FiftyFifty:
But insensitivity is one of GEJ's moniker, d other one is clueless.

Sorry! Are you the new Lai Muhammed?

egift:

Jonathan has always been insensitive - It will be surprising if today is different.

When they was a blast in Abuja, many Boys burnt and over 200 girls abducted in Chibok - Dr. Ebelemi Jonathan was in Kano to showcase is infamous dancing skills, by rock the world of this woman for the world to see.

wasting of time...
Bombs cant stop GEJ from contesting.
He will remain on that seat untill 2019.
Sorry, i knew is very painful to see person you dont ruling, and has refused to be distracted. God bless GEJ.

firstEVA:
Isn't it a shame that the so called masterminds are incapable of being apprehended and are free to bomb any where at any time under the watchful eyes of the commander in chief? I really can't wrap my head around this kind of situation, insurgents are having a field day and the government is incapable of arresting the situation? this is crazy!

How can the president stop you, if you decide to go the market now and buy material for making bombs... After making it, you put it in ur pant, and put on ur cloth, go straight to the market and detonate it, even America, one of the world best secured Country cant prevent it.

firstEVA:
This is the height of insensitivity on the part of of president - Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan, just a day after almost 50 children lost their lives due to an attack by Boko haram, our dear president is declaring for a second term. Shouldn't he have postponed this campaign to at least commiserate with the families of those who lost their lives?

Did they actually bombed those innocent children in oda to stop GEJ?
GEJ is unstopable!!!

gift01:
Over 50 school children died yesterday and they're dancing over there in Abuja

Try again later...

noblezone:
Buhari was tyranny personified!

An over ambitious soldier who who led fellow rascals to destroy destinies!

Nigerians are hoodwinked that jailing people is the same as fighting corruption!

Buhari shed innocent blood just for the fun of it!

We must do what we have to do: Buhari must not smell that sit again!

You are just wasting ur precious time....
It is a known fact that Buhari will never rule Nigeria again!

The best thing for Nigeria is division!
We have never been one and we would never be...
I hate it when 83% of what belong to me in my State are own by few poeple from other side of the Country.
They are somehow closer to Niger, Chad and Cameroun morethan they are to me, they love people of these three mentioned Country more than they love me.
They hate me with passion, and loved the resources in my area with passion.
Lord, set us free...
