ABUJA – PEOPLES Democratic Party, PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation has described the appearance of the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, General Muhammadu Buhari, rtd at Chatham House, London as a stage managed show of shame.

In a statement by the Director, Media and Publicity of PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani- Kayode, the PDP said that it was quite ironical and absurd that Buhari could go to a foreign land for a debate while he vehemently refused to be part of the debate organised in Nigeria, a country he wants to govern.

Fani-Kayode who requested to know if the APC Presidential candidate remembered to tell the organisers of his alleged romance with members of the Boko Haram said, “It is amazing that a man that refuses to participate in a debate in his own country is so ready to go to a foreign country to sell his message in a desperate attempt to curry favor with the people of that country.

“We wonder whether General Buhari told his foreign audience whilst he was in London how much he loves Boko Haram. We wonder whether he told them that he once said that he believes that ”an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the north” and that the Boko Haram terrorists should be appeased, pampered, resettled and paid allowances.

“We wonder if he told them that he was once nominated by Boko Haram to be their spokesman and representative during proposed negotiations with the Federal Government.

“We wonder if he told them that he was the one that ordered and organised the violent injecting, crating and disgraceful kidnapping of a former Minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by the name of Alhaji Umaru Dikko from the streets of London 31 years ago when he was in power.

“We shall state our views about General Buhari’s stage-managed show of shame at Chatham House at a later date; and, at that time, we shall go into far more detail.

“For now, all we can say is that it is truly pitiful that a former Head of State of the Federal Republic of Nigeria believes that it is more important to win the hearts and minds of the British than it is to win the hearts and minds of the Nigerian people.

General Buhari can run to any foreign country in the world to say anything that he likes but at the end of the day the decision as to who will lead Nigeria as from May 29th this year will be determined by no one else but the Nigerian people. The game is on here and not in London.”

mumu, he's our presdent now everyone can be his classmate. did buhari host genaral ali gusau before he come out to say they wrote exam together?

shegsky:
Lol, I guess they were been cajoled because of the rate at which there salaries were been paid towards the election period and the largesse been given to the populace.

Now I know Ekiti workers and indigenes are wise, The Apc used the same tantrums in Ekiti, Spending sporadically , cooking, and sharing things, BUT ,they came out and started shouting that PDP won cos of stomach infrac whereas Fayemi spend more than what fayose could ever imagine but lo and behold, They Hve made up there mind to send APC packing.

HzRF:
80% of workers went for omisore

If osogbo was indeed free and fair he won't get up to dat

shegsky:
It's true, But I deduced something that those workers really want a change in government, BUT those osun indigenes no gree at all. Unlike in Ekiti whereas Both workers and the populace sent Apc packing.

shegsky:
While Ekiti state workers are now enjoying The real change, there fellow counterparts in osun state are now regretting and wallowing in abject poverty. How I wish osun indigenes had seen the bleeping change coming there way once again, I guess they would have done the needful but it's now too late. It's a pity, just dey use water swallow am for the next 4years. God is your strength.

PaulJohn1:
Conduct another election in Oshogbo today and the difference from the August 9 result is going to be very irrelevant to count.

LRNZH:
Stop peddling untruths.

The 4 countries affected the most by low oil prices are Venezuela, Russia, Iran and Nigeria.
Nigeria is the outlier on that least. Nigeria is not under any biting western sanctions like the other 3 mentioned above and Nigeria is not footing any major socialist or propping-a-dictator program.

Russia is actively fighting in Ukraine, Iran is the backbone behind Assad in Syria, Venezuela has one of the most subsidized socialist welfare program in the world albeit corruptly administered.

Nigeria should not be on that list just like the Arab oil countries or even Angola and other African oil producers. It is gross economic mismanagement and colossal corruption that got us on that list.

Vote our GEJ to stabilise Nigeria

When will Ibos learn how to see the truth and say it regardless of the ethnicity and religion of the other person?

you guys plead the victim after facing consequences of your silly statements.

notobs:
private secondary schools/colleges can convert to universities. Nigeria needs more private participation in educational development. The NUC will regulate these universities and ensure that they are standardized.
These is a good initiative. We need more licences for private universities and industries in Nigeria. All the Ivy league universities in the US are privately run and owned.

This is serious FAILURE by Jonathan. It is going to bite him HARD. Let us remember that we had foreign exchange reserves of $45bn and ECA of $22bb that was further helped by $115/barrel oil price that should have.improved. exchange rate to N70 to.the dollar. Every other OPEC country also built up reserves and developed petrochemical industry.
Jonathan did not. At N200 to the dollar most companies will soon laying off workers. All the empty half educated youths praising Jonathan will curse him soon. Shey Buhari is the one you fear now?.You are afraid of Fulani general? Soon you will beg him.

kaboninc:
They are rubbish to your ear because you my friend is rubbish.

What is your business if N200 is to a dollar?

What do you as a person do with the dollar? What's is your interest? And how does it affect you as a person that a dollar cost 200 naira?

Let me see your 'layman' reasoning!
