Ofcourse the apex court would say he is eligible.
They should please leave him alone to contest oooo.
We would decide through our vote to let him continue his bad bad works or to stop him from ruining this country .

Which country has he ruined. When OBJ further ruined it, when abacha, babangida, shagari (all from the north including GMB) , what did you say? Please enough of this ranting. We will give you an opportunity to vote 100 times for Buhari, yet he will not get to Aso Rock. Nonsense, you think others are brainwashed like you with fake and divisive cries for change, GEJ has tried his best and we know where the sabotage is coming from. We are wiser,and come 2015, we will return GEJ to Aso Rock, you can hang yourself when the result is annouced.

VANGUARD –

Tension is mounting at the
Presidency and the core North over the court case
challenging the eligibility of President Goodluck
Jonathan to contest the 2015 presidential election.
Competent sources said, last night, that the
Presidency was worried that the case could upset
its political permutations should the Supreme
Court rule against Jonathan running in the
election.

The main headache of the Presidency is that if the
apex court rules that its principal could not run in
2015, it would be difficult for the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) to organise another
National Convention to elect another candidate to
meet the deadline set by the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) said to be December
18, two days after the hearing.

The case was said to have been on the radar of
presidential minders believed to have also made
contacts to know how the case could go and the
justices to sit on it.

Meanwhile, Jonathan’s opponents, particularly
from the core North, it was learnt, were expectant
that the case would be decided against the
president having taken the oath of office twice for
the office.

Sunday Vanguard gathered from judicial sources
that top officials of the Supreme Court were aware
of the heightened interest in the case, slated for
hearing on Tuesday, December 16, 2014 and were
working hard to block undue access to the case
file.

The heightened tension, according to the sources,
manifested in unceasing enquiries over the
composition of the panellists to hear the crucial
matter.

Although the case was filed during the tenure of
the former Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Aloma
Mukthar, the sources said there had been intense
pressure on the current CJN, who took over about
two weeks ago, to reconstitute the panel.
Those in support of Jonathan were said to be
rooting for a justice sympathetic to his cause to
head the panel while those who want the president
disqualified from running in the 2015 election,
favoured a neutral and fearless arbiter to preside
over the case.

A top judicial official confirmed that the CJN was
yet to re-constitute the panel to hear the case at
the close of work on Friday even though he was
aware that the case had been slated for hearing on
Tuesday.

The official said it was normal in a very crucial
judicial matter of that nature for the CJN to
interfere in the composition of the panellists to
ensure that justice is delivered to all the parties
concerned.

He said: “The eligibility case filed by some persons
against President Jonathan is a serious matter,
which the CJN has taken notice of and the normal
process of setting up the panel, a few hours to the
hearing, will be done.

“As at the close of work at the weekend, no panel
had been raised by the CJN and we believe that,
because of the sensitive nature of the matter and
the interest it has generated, the CJN will empanel
a team to handle it at the right time.
“This is not the first time such a case is coming
before the Supreme Court and there is an
established procedure for dealing with such
matters.

“In a case of this nature, the CJN might want to put
in neutral justices in the panel taking into
consideration where they come from, their
maturity, objectivity, and how they have handled
similar critical assignments in the past.

Anxiety
A northern politician from Kano State, who has
been campaigning against Jonathan’s presidency,
said he was hopeful that Jonathan would lose the
case and return power to the North, ”where the
presidency is supposed to be following the death
of Umaru Yar’Adua.”



But a PDP governor, who spoke to Sunday
Vanguard, last night, expressed optimism that the
president had the right to run for second term,
having merely completed the tenure of the late
president before seeking a fresh mandate in
accordance with the Constitution of Nigeria.
“Obviously, I don’t think there is anything to worry
about as far as this case is concerned,” the
governor said. ”There is no law that says that
Jonathan should not run in 2015 and that is it”.

The anxiety over the case follows the declaration
by INEC that the different parties must submit to it
the names of their candidates for the 2015
elections in the shortest possible time as stipulated
by the law.

The commission said, last night, that it was
awaiting the parties to forward to it lists of
candidates and their running mates where
necessary.

But it said it will only recognize candidates that
emerged from primaries supervised by its officials,
warning politicians who conducted parallel party
primaries not to approach it with any list. Mr
Kayode Idowu, Chief Press Secretary to INEC
Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, who spoke in a
telephone interview with Sunday Vanguard, said
the electoral law was clear on the time frame, and
asked all parties to rectify their problems where
necessary with a view to forwarding their
candidates to the electoral body.

It will be recalled that the Supreme Court had
okayed the appeal filed before it by a chieftain of
the PDP, from Adamawa State, Dr. Umar Ardo, for
hearing on a day Jonathan insisted he was legally
qualified to contest the 2015 presidential election.
The president, through his lawyer, Mr. Ade Okeaya-
Inneh, SAN, told the court that he had cited legal
authorities backing his re-election bid.
He argued that Ardo had no case against him,
insisting that he is permitted by the 1999
Constitution to go for a second tenure in office.

The bolded comment is the reason why GEJ is hated so much. This much acclaimed change which the opposition is campaigning is not about giving NIGERIANS a better life, but about returning power to the north even if it has to be a baboon, dog or goat in Aso Rock, they don't care, all they want is power must return to the north. The southwesterns supporting this cause blindly are just doing so out of hatred. No one can tell GEJ has not performed in other areas. He is trying just as his predecessor had done. No one can solved the problems on this nation in one sweep as the old buhari had boasted, it's just a way to get to power and ths story continues. This time he will tell us that the rot in the nation will take 30 years to cleanse & story continues. Nonsense APC ideology that says the Niger deltans don't have a right to rule in this NIGERIA.

1.8m, let's deal.

Mooaloji:
Sarkin Kano Muhammadu Sanusi, you are not wrong. GMB will flush boko haram with sincerity and commitment. Buhari is change, restoration, salvation. jonah your time is up. begin to back to otuoke or the nearest zoo.

TeamGMB.

Because GMB and the emir are the sponsors na. Rabbish, no Islamist will smell Aso rock, mark my word. any liberal Muslim is welcome, but for an Islamist like Buhari, he will not smell that seat, not even at his current age of 74.

Hope the fish was not killed by radioactive substance in the sea. How could people eat such not knowing what killed it. ?

The day terrorists attacked American soil, America started 2wars. You can never try to attack American soil without a devestating backlash.

Terrorists are busy claiming territories on Nigerian soil and our President is dancing and campaigning the next instance. Don't you agree its a daft move??

I don't have access to Billions of dollars, the Nigerian Army, Navy, Airforce, police and countless para-millitary like G.E.J does so don't put us on the same pedestal.

You want me to join the army so that the incompetence G.E.J permitts to thrive there will result in me dying like the hundreds of Soldiers sent to their deaths.

When you have to bribe to get more than 30 bullets or 200 ill equiped soldiers being sent to fight 800 well armed Boko haram fighers??

The best way I can fight is to vote out G.E.J and vote in someone that sees these fatal bumblings permitted by G.E.J to thrive in the Nigerian Army and correct them.

So you think the army is not doing enough right? Then it's high time you signed on to the Army, they are looking for you. American took the fight to Middle East, Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, and the rest of the Arab world, and till date the war against terror is still on. Where do you want nigerian army to take the war to other than where they are now and trying their best to ward off the insurgent who are even the children of our people on the north. The northerners created a monster called Boko haram, and today they want GEJ to stop insurgents within 6 months. It's a shame and show of hatred for the man that sits in Aso Rock.
Coming to how boko haram started, it did not start today, successive governments have had them around. They have always been there preaching to their people about an Islamic caliphate where sharia will be implemented, the teachings have been going on by the clerics in their mosques. Their political elites now worsened it by telling them that the Aso Rock belongs to the northern via their 'born to rule mentality' their religion tells them that an 'infidel cannot rule over them' so they need to kill all infidels. Now when Yerima started sharia in his state, what did OBJ do? nothing, what did the then National Assembly do about it, nothing. Rather Yerima went to court to fortify his implementation of sharia in his state.
Sadly and very unfortunately, our constitution recognized sharia and as I tell you now, any if that portion of the constitution is not death with and removed from the constitution, we will keep having problem and any president who has love for the sharia legal system will not waste times o ensure that their are sharia courts all over NIGERIA if given an opportunity.

So we have to be careful with the change we clamour for, so we don't fall from frying pan to fire. Yes we need change, but we need to be careful. We don't want GEJ, does not mean we have to embrace anything we see. We have lots of fine and liberal gentlemen in Nigeria who can lead this country. It must not be an Islamist who claims to be a saint.

We have a typical example in Africa, Egypt is not far. When they wanted a change, they embraced Mohammed Morsi blindly, when it hit them that this Morsi is not only an Islamist seeking to implement sharia in Egypt, he was am amber of a terror organization, the Muslim brotherhood with strong affiliations Hezbollah and Hamaz. What happened eventually, the Egyptians rose up and got him out of their.
People will say yes, let's put buhari and if he messes up, we will kick him out. My friend, NIGERIANS don't have the kind of heart the Arabs have. We love life so much that we can even stand face to face with a fierce looking soldier. We are here talking. We have to be careful because we cannot get him out of there if eventually he wants to Islamize Nigeria.

ba7man:
All these posts, topics, arguements and counter arguements can't sway me to ever vote for G.E.J.

G.E.J has the 2nd most blood thirsty administration ever witnessed in this Country and also the most corrupt ever.........Even the past Millitary administrations with absolute power weren't this corrupt.

His fans would blame Buhari's careless talk but smart peeps know its G.E.J's lackadaisical attitude to the insurgency issues and corruption that's responsible for our current situation.

What are you waiting for, can't you go and join the army and know how it feels to fight insurgents. America has been fighting terror for more than 30 years now, and still counting.

Buhari and Islamization of Nigeria are 5 & 6. People don't know what islam is until it hits them. Buhari is hiding under the fake cloak of sainthood to see if he can get into Aso Rock. He is a corrupt & clueless old foooool. Now I know a lot of Nigerians are gullible, but then wise ones are wiser. We can't be taken for a ride. Say NO to Buhari. Let them younger generations come on board. We can't have a 74 year old goon decide the fate of the youths in this country. That time is gone bye now.

Is this laptop still available. Any picture.

BackDatAssUp:
Islam is peaceful. As you can see that girl is actually an Ijaw girl. Muslim girl would never open her gown for you to see what is under. Besides she is yet to be married. Only kafirs keep their women to be as old as their grandmothers before marrying them.

I am 35. My first wife is 23 while the 4th is 12. I married the first when I was 18. No true Muslim will be this fresh and still remain unmarried.

This girl is Ijaw and was sent by Edwin Clark who is Jonathan step father. This I know because I have brother who worked for Clark as gate man but he actually was sent by us to spy Clark. We ave pissures of this girl with Clark drinking whiskey. We shall release it through Mallam Rufai's twitter and Facebook page as evidence. This girl also was seen in private jet with orisejafor before she was flown to bomb Christians in our Muslim land.

Islam is peaceful.

You are a terrorist. Your master brainwasher will soon strap the bombs on you and send you on a mission, but guess what, the bombs will explode before you step out of the coven where you people meet to plan evil against the innocent.

cramjones:
If president Jonathan had acted within 48hours when Chibok was invaded, this girl would have been with her parents having a chance of an education. Unfortunately, due to his carelessness, incompetence, insensitivity, insincerity, ineptitude, weakness, wickedness and greed, he only accepted that girls were kidnapped 18 days after the incident. Now this girl has been brainwashed to detonate herself and kill others.

This is the 13 year old that tried to blow up Kano yet again! By the way, is the President and his Boko boys trying to instill fear in the largest voting population in the North, to prevent them from voting our general?

-CramJones

The ones who are really clueless, deranged, inept, wicked , weak, insensitive, selfish, unpatriotic, greedy and lost focus is you and your boko haram sponsoring APC goons. Always blaming the president for your inability to achieve your selfish objectives. Go get loads of face towel because the old fool you have suddenly put your faith in will be needing it much more come Feb. 2015.

After your wedding reception, i am sure you waited for your guest to leave the rented venue............then you and your wife started sweeping, picking up plates,spoons, empty can drink, tissue,left over, tooth pick etc used by your invited guest.

We know your brain has been taken but i am sure they still left you TANdriod with your senses.

CLUELESS PEOPLE[/size]

You are the clueless daft. Next time you attend your jamb lesson, ask your teacher what it means for one to be sarcastic. You this DAFTdroid.

adamsjj:
Naaa waa, how APC dey také get likes for NL e dey marvel me ooo!...APC talk =178 likes...PDP talk= 12likes...if dz go reflect for election, yawa don gass ooo!..#Mind you, am not supporting any party...let d best candidate win

Don't mind what you see on NL, most of them don't even have the PVC, some are under aged, most are not even registered.

Imagine! So what's the importance of their broom if they can't use it to keep their environment clean. 'Charity begins at home they say'. If it was PDP that did this, even the state governor will go public immediately to denounce this. Yèyè.

Illiteracy at work. Hope others will learn especially those who add energy drinks to alcoholic drinks. It's dangerous.

popcykaylah:
asides the bombing that we are complaining about ..give me one reason why we shouldnt vote him out ?

You people want to turn thus country to Zimbabwe with a president who has no teeth abi. May Buhari rule your village even at the age of 120.

headboyprince:
I saw the news thay say 37 killed today at bomb blast at mr biggs

Iam fell like unsitting GEJ NOW because he is not capable of rulling naija

Silly a...ss

Some people are so daft to think that they can Bomb there way into Aso Rock. Come 2015, GEJ will remain in that Aso Rock. People being led by cattle since the time of Mohamed.

prinznazzy:
I can't believe we stil hav daft citizens in dis nation....wats wit all dis tribe issues...n even if jonathan remains dr till 2019(by riggin), wat happens after he leaves us in a desolate state....do u in any imagination think d yorubas n hausas of which u kno r far higher in population dan d rest of d nation wuld ever give any person inclined to igbo a chance?...y dnt u think far ahead dan just 2day...

Please don't just assume that GEJ will rig the election to win. Seems like your party is already prepared to lose and at the same time act out its scripts of causing mayhem in the country. Bunch of losers always assume every person is a cheat.

Orikinla:
I have over 12 million people who are eligible to vote for Buhari.
And once I endorse him, they will follow.

You make me laugh. Time shall tell.

PDP is going to have a land slide victory in this election.

I have predicted the results below, let's wait and see.

Northwest: PDP 30%, APC 70%
North central: PDP 50% APC 50%
Northeast: PDP 65%, APC 35%
Middle belt: PDP 90%, APC 10%
Southwest: PDP 70%, APC 30%
Southeast: PDP 95% APC 5%
Niger deltans: PDP 95% APC 5%.



PDP 495%. APC 205%

This is my own opinion poll, I might be wrong, it's all about politics. You don't have to agree with me, but the cards are clean, on the table and not hidden. Buhari is not a viable candidate to match with GEJ.

ajaopopo:
Am forced to comment. because dat useless.fellow dat say B GENERAL is week against blody civilian like jona.don't worry February is around d corner.we are watching. ####.

You only have one vote bro. Save your stress, the old general is a loser as always. He could only lead NIGERIA in khaki uniform, he is not cut out for a democratic process.

The northerners and APC gradually telling us we are not one. After all, their monkey and baboon general once said that muslims should not vote for a Christian president, they should vote for Muslim president because they (the muslims) are more in number, victory is theirs.

That is the mates APC is banking on, and come 2015, we will see how that plays out.

Some local government accountants whether seasoned or garnished are always fraudulent, covering books and adding and hiding numbers just to please their Oga at the top.

Good news, the game is getting interesting. APC might kiss Lagos good bye come February, 2015. That is the man for the job.

That interview showed that the normadic general is even the real clueless aspirant on board. The opposition should be so ashamed. They couldn't even present a sound candidate.

Johnnyessence:
forget about sentiment here gej will be defeated convincely in 2015 polls Cos' people are tired of his government no hope for d masses in his government we are sick and tired of d clueless president we av he has failed us .he's clueless as usual I pray today d will of God and d will of d people will prevail in February polls .we are sick and tired of his government no hope for we d youth in his government.

Who will defeat GEJ? Is it the unintelligent general who does not even have any logical solution to the problems of Nigeria? Oh please give me a break. The interview I saw on channels was pathetic coming from the acclaimed best presidential candidate from the opposition. It's appalling that gullible Nigerians have keyed into this vague ideology of "change" coming from the opposition. I guess the gullible support of this normadic aspirant neither understand the meaning of change nor see through this eye of the storm to know that the normad aspirant who is not only old but dull cannot be our president. You mentioned "no hope for the youths" is ur normadic choice a youth? Answer yourself this question.

Ok

The number of beggars I saw today along Osolo way via Answani was outrageous. At every point in time they approached my car to beg for alms, I got scared. Especially those ones on a wheelchair padded with lots of clothings while they sit on it. For once I was thinking their wheelchair could be laden with a bomb.
Secondly, the number of women in full hijab attire too has doubled in recent times. I hope we are all save in this country o.

I went to a bank ATM today and a woman joined the queue with a poly bag, when she dropped it to go use the ATM, we all almost ran away. The security guard had to call the attention of the woman to come pick her bag at once.
Funny, but things could happen and we pray we are not caught up in such inferno In Jesus Name.

Advise is to always watch out. Stay clear of suspicious character and report to the police immediately or better still raise an alarm.

Upjosventures:
I HATE JONATHAN...I FEEL LIKE TURNING INTO A PROFESSIONAL SNIPER AND KILL HIM...

Ape of the highest order. Never failing to show how stew*pid you are. It's a shame.
