Senility kicking in! Before you know it the wife will want to rule prom za vackgwound!

I saw vot you did there.

There is nothing wrong with APC enlisting the services of an American consultancy. Let no one spin this into another useless allegation, Nairaland is already full of such lies, we don't need another.

Children as young as 4 years old have been seen parading their PVC in those areas.

Lies.


See how easy it is to fabricate a lie? APC and PDP should stop these fake and malicious allegations.

Earlier on we were presented with the lie that Jega will be replaced on March 1 - that was an APC lie. Now we are hearing how Jega and Buhari are planning to rig the elections; an obvious PDP sponsored lie. Many NLanders without thinking accept any one of these lies and spreads them about because it fits the biased viewpoints that they have.

Both parties are insincere, they will keep manufacturing lies and allegations so that unsuspecting people will fall for it and support their cause.

That said, I won't be voting for anyone who forcefully took over power in the past and is still unrepentant about it till today.

The FG should stop sponsoring pilgrimages altogether. It is a waste of funds, those desirous of visiting Saudi Arabia, Israel or the Vatican should do so with money from their own pockets.

GMB is the only option we have now that can put the country on the right track.

I beg to differ. Jonathan has been a large disappointment but I don't see the sense in replacing him with a tyrant and ex dictator who has so far shown that he is unable to fit constructively in a modern world. I will not participate in rewarding an unrepentant coup plotter by voting him into office.

Jonathan must go and yet the people who are in a position to make this happen offer us someone who is worse than Jonathan? No thanks, I won't support this.

This doesn't happen come March 1, then we will conclude that the OP is part of a grand propaganda machinery

alaoeri:
Whether good or bad, Jona will be oust through the ballots.

That's fine by me, I just hope he isn't replaced by the coup plotter and ruthless dictator that is Buhari.

alaoeri:
You simply don't understand what GMB meant, election must hold 30days before May 29, any attempt to shift it again is coup tactically committed by GEJ.

Oh really?

Going by Buhari's refusal to apologise for the coup d'état that he spearheaded in 1983 this wouldn't be a bad thing then.

alaoeri:
The country must be rescue from the hand of unscrupulous elements.

Coup alert!

Meanwhile it seems every statement from
Buhari himself keeps reinforcing the negative images people have of him.

Those who were saying this matter should be taken to court will now wish it wasn't. This was a very avoidable drama if only Buhari was forthright with the whereabouts of his certificates. Whatever damage this does to his campaign, if any, he should know that he provided the ammo to his distractors.

APC should learn from this and in the future not allow itself be weighed down by such unnecessary matters. Field a much better candidate next time.

Thank u. Vry sensible thing 2say without sounding disrespectful.
We shld try as much as possible to reduce d way we abuse eachother when we disagree on a particular choice of shows. One man's trash is another man's treasure.
I went somewhere&some dudes were talking abt Breaking bad;how lame d show is&so on&i'm lik "WTF are these ni**rs talking abt? Lik Breaking bad But u c?some say is d best of d best while in some other's POV,its over rated but at d end of d day,u lik wot u lik.
Last Bullet,pls stop spoiling d thread with insults.
I'm stil sad u guys eliminated my friend @RayMc. I don't hav anybody 2talk abt WWE with anymore. That's d only thng dat gives me joy now. Watching wrestling. i knw some ppl wil say "What kind of chick watches wrestling? Like seriously?" Ya "the answer is: i'm not a regular chick"

Seriously anybody that doesn't like Breaking Bad should have their TV viewing rights revoked for at least 2 years, there isn't anything like one man's trash is another man's treasure here. Some people just have terrible taste. They need to be forcibly corrected.

I kid. Or not.

I thought I was the only one with the opinion that gotham is becoming lame, so predictable, Ive stopped watching it till further notice maybe in season two or three

I watched the last episode and saw how penguin survived in the hands of maroni, I say no, this show is not for me.

Exactly, that episode was the straw that broke the proverbial camel's back for me. So Penguin managed to place a call to the car crusher (what are those machines called?) operator at the last moment, and the operator foolishly fell for his threat?! Maroni didn't notice anything till Penguin made his escape? Unbelievable! In fact if I think about it the whole series started going downhill after the 4th episode or so. Very predictable show. James Gordon and his partner always arrive at the nick of time to catch the bad guys, the mobsters of Gotham are easily deceived and the police force is surprisingly ambivalent; one moment they are shielding criminals the next they are arresting them.

I've always been a fan of Batman so that's probably the reason why I wanted to see this show. What made it different was that it started from a timeline we hadn't seen before - when Batman was still a boy and the villains weren't fully formed either. Alas the show has started becoming way too predictable to be enjoyable. A shame.

If only APC had presented someone other than Buhari to contest against Jonathan this election would have been a walkover for them.

Defending Jonathan is tough but when compared with Buhari, Jonathan has more chances of coming out successful. This is a fact that many Buhari/APC supporters do not want to face despite their chants in cyberspace.

All these comments from people about how they love Buhari's composure, his gait and the color of his teeth are ridiculous. At one point I was wondering if I was reading from a North Korean forum where citizens are forced to describe Kim Jung-Un in flowerly language or face death. Let's keep it real people, Buhari is not some deity that descended from a holy mountain to liberate our souls, he is a human being like all of us. All the hyperbolic descriptions are nauseating.

Been watching Gotham and I must say the show is turning out to be a silly show after all. It was obviously made for kids, what was I thinking watching this crap?

Even when a party does something that is glaringly wrong its supporters come online to construe it as right. Thats just plain disingenuousness.

People should look beyond the APC /PDP rivalry and see that many of these actions border on questions of character and with the kind of display one sees here one has to agree that a great deal of the Nigerian populace is already lost.

PapiWata:
Ha ha ha oh no, there is more to point out, starting with your idol's fear of engaging ANYONE in a public debate, coupled with his premature and laughably presumptive threats to KILL a free press in order to hide the truth about his own primordially demonic antecedents.

Anyway, for the sake of your own health, I advise you to try and cheer up despite the impeding electoral landslide defeat of your terror gang fugitive from justice - Weeping General Bokko Hari.

All is well in the known universe on this fine day. All is well ha ha ha.

Jakumo is that you?

CFCfan:
You must be a lawyer or law student. You've raised some salient points, but there are situations where press freedom is limited. For instance, it's a crime to publish leaked, classified info in the US. The US government can prosecute anyone found to have leaked classified national security info.

Good. You say the US govt can prosecute, as in try in a court of law, not ban. This only relates to classified material not views that the govt or govt officials consider embarrassing to themselves. That's a huge difference.

I doubt Buhari said this. OP this report has falsehood written on it.

barcanista:
My Dear, you are the one swimming in Ignorance. Why did Egypt arrest Aljazeera Journalists? Why not publish false material against the Israeli Government or PM? Why not do that in the Emirate or KSA? Are we more democratic than Israel? There are publications you will make in the US, you will be invited for questioning. We have to be sincere. A government officer is different from just a private citizen. False report against officials is capable of causing panic, anarchy and even unrest. What lead to the breakdown of law and order in Gabon of recent? A report that the President is from Nigeria made people to come out to demand the fall of that government. Stop being emotional plsssssss

What are you really saying? So we should follow these nations even in their missteps? There will always be troublemakers in the press but any government that is sincerely committed to democracy and is busy with the provision of good governance will not have the time to go about banning and curtailing press freedom.

When issues that point to the dictatorial tendencies of Buhari are brought up his defenders say that we are in a democracy, that he cannot do any of these things. While that is true to a certain extent we should also recall that in Russia, where they supposedly now practise democracy, Putin has carried out similar oppressive acts. The Russian press today cannot offer criticism to the government without attracting a punitive response. It goes to show that even in a democracy once the leaders don't subscribe to the proper tenets of the democratic system, that democracy can be reduced to a quasi dictatorship where the oppressiveness and restrictions abound albeit beneath the surface.

So Barcanista are you saying like Buhari that the press should be banned or stifled when they overstep their bounds?

His handlers are afraid that he will do more damage to his campaign by engaging in the debate so he has been advised to abscond this one. That's the only rational explanation I can come up with, why would any sane politician not want to debate about his plans and manifesto with other candidates before the whole country? When GEJ ran away in 2011 we all condemned him for it, how much more should we then condemn the man who claims to be better than GEJ but is repeating the same folly!

Azo:
Na wa o. I see lots of people just rattling here likely based on their ignorance or lack of high enough IQ to remember APC has a published manifesto. How cna u say they have no drawn up plans? Do u remember GMB's nice and eloquent debate in 2011 that GEclueless didn't attend? Suffice to say GMB didn't avoid this debate due to lack of oratorical prowess but due to his well calculated thought about the impending bias posed by PDP media houses, AIT &NTA

GEJ's no-show during the last elections was very bad, disgraceful even. But how can you comfortably say that Buhari's response in that debate was nice and eloquent? Buhari answered questions poorly showed inadequate understanding of the issues facing this nation. Buhari is a poor orator, but what is even greater is that he does not have any concrete plans on how to lead this nation save for jailing and arresting people.

People keep referring to Buhari's involvement in the 2011 presidential debates. I hope they have actually watched it and seen the poor performance Buhari put up in it. He displayed a poor grasp of the problems facing this nation and didn't offer any tangible solutions.

"To deprive a people of volition in their own political direction is to turn a nation into a colony of slaves. "

That is the crime that looms behind Buhari to this day. Add to that his unrepentant attitude about his dictatorial regime and you have the one major reason I do not support Buhari.

Go and watch his debate performance of 2011 on youtube. The same debate Jonathan didn't show up for.

His performance in that debate was nothing to write home about. His responses were hardly insightful or well grounded. It was a poor performance.

If he loses there is that unsettling business of baboons and dogs being drenched in some type of liquid. I hope we spare them, those animals never meant anybody any harm.

jaybee:
All of you opening your mouths now. But you did not see anything wrong when GEJ refused to honour the presidential debate in 2011 without giving any excuse. Pay back time for PDP. APC is even diplomatic and considerate enough to explain to the electorate. APC is smart; they paid GEJ in his own coin. GEJ should also feel what it means to disappoint others.

https://news.bbcimg.co.uk/media/images/51834000/jpg/_51834439_011562166-1.jpg

Pay back time indeed. Every sane individual condemned GEJ for boycotting the debates back in 2011. It was disgraceful. So for Buhari who claims that he is better than GEJ to repeat such a shameful and cowardly behaviour under the lame excuse that the organisers are pro-PDP is doubly ludicrous and embarrassing.

Caseless:
u illiterate, it was that bastard from otuoke that played truant during the last debate(2011).

So by repeating that shameful act of 2011, Buhari isn't acting cowardly? Be honest with yourself.
