ACN imposes candidates.

If you are not cool with it go to parties who dont impose.

Its what the party does, So why complain? You can join another party if you dont like ACN's ways

Until there is 24/7 Electricity, people are right to criticise and ask questions. We are gradually being left behind by other countries, and there is a fear of the gap widening.

Maybe there is improvement in Lagos and Abuja, but [b]I have been in the South South for some day[/b]s, It has been a frustrating experience.

No one ever said 24/7 light will come and happen in one day, however, they ought to start from somewhere, and so far all other administrations have spent and nothing to show for it.
Even a little kid know we have all it takes, but they all have their own reason why they just not ready to take it happen

ogugua88:
I haven't been home right? I haven't experienced no power right? What's even funnier is that you told me to call folks at home to tell me how power is. I didn't call but I sent text messages. They complained. Depending on location, power still sucks. I saw people complaining in that thread to which you directed me. As Nigerians, never settle for less. You deserve an uninterrupted supply of power. Don't commend 50% improvement, not with an amenity as basic as power.

[size=14pt]Gusau residents applaud PHCN[/size]
Friday, 23 September 2011

A cross-section of residents of Gusau, the capital of Zamfara State have commended the PHCN for enhanced power supply to the state.

The residents urged the PHCN management to sustain the feat, saying that they would never oppose any increase in tariff if the electricity supply remained steady.

One of the electricity consumers, Malam Bello Musa, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that President Goodluck Jonathan should give priority attention to efforts to fulfil his campaign promises, particularly those relating to stable power supply.

Musa stressed that steady power supply would help a lot in reviving closed or moribund industries across the country, adding that this would consequently create more jobs for the people, while improving the people’s living standards.

A housewife, Hajiya Larai Bala, however, expressed some reservations about the improved power supply situation.

``It is too early to make comments on it now; we need more time to see if the supply will remain stable,’’ she said.

Another consumer, Malam Ibrahim Tukur, however, said that the PHCN needed dedicated and honest officers to manage the affairs

moderatorr:
your opinion has not nullified the fact that there is 42 percent reduction in maternal mortality, nor the fact there is significant improvement in power supply which an earlier thread had people confirming it. If you were not an imbe.cile i would have asked you if Johnathan was wrong by letting us know about his commitment to healthcare. Lets just hope GEj's education sector investments will help people like you.

Fhemmmy:
Promise with nothing to follow . . . .Hope this would be the start of a new nation, we want a new Nigeria too . . .so we will be following the thread

GEJ: “Yes, of course, I support that Nigerians must discuss and Nigerians have been discussing. I have asked the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) to collate the reports of past national conferences. The ones that are not conclusive are few. We are going to set up a committee. We are discussing to package the reports and take them to the National Assembly. But areas that seemed controversial, we will look at them.”

My brother, this is why I don't bother responding to the bigots and nuisances running around the forum shouting my name whenever the ACN is mentioned. As if I ever stated , anywhere, that the Party is perfect. If some like, they can continue to play Ostrich but it is clear the ACN is a better Political Party than the PDP[b] by any index of comparison [/b].

Look at even the recent elections in the SW. Who were the candidates of the PDP in comparison to those of the ACN? Alao Akala and Olurin versus Ajimobi and Amosun respectively? I dey laff. A roll call of post SW PDP Governors reads like a list of the most corrupt and most inept individuals to ever have participated in Nigerian politics i.e Fayose, Agagu, Oni, Gbenga Daniel, Oyinlola et al. Abeg, it ain't Rocket Science. The ACN will not begin producing pious Saints overnight , because Nigerian Politics cannot currently accommodate those sort of people, but they deliberately seek the participation of decent folks , still able to foster development, in contrast to how the PDP has a penchant for recruiting grossly corrupt thieves, thugs and misrulers. To me , the ACN provides the best alternative before the birth of "the beautiful ones".

IKEJA—Ahead of the October 22 local government election in Lagos State, hundreds of aggrieved members of the Action Congress of Nigeria, [size=14pt]ACN[/size], yesterday, stormed the party secretariat in Ogba, Lagos State House of Assembly, Alausa, and took to the major streets in Isolo Local Government Area to protest alleged imposition of candidates.

The state party had, Monday, released the names of candidates to be fielded in the council polls in the 20 local government areas and 37 local council development areas.

The protesters, who accused state party chairman, Chief Henry Ajomale, of not following due process, called on the party’s National Leader, Senator Bola Tinubu, Governor Babatunde Fashola and members of the state assembly to intervene immediately. failing which they would disrupt the polls.

Also, major streets in Isolo LCDA witnessed massive protest as aggrieved residents, traditional chiefs and politicians stormed the Osolo of Isolo palace to register their grievances.

[size=14pt]Market women and men, including traditional cult, popularly known as “Osugbo” trooped to the streets to invoke evil spirits at a junction called “Orita Esu” (devil’s junction) in Isolo [/size]with various placards to show their grievances against the imposition of one Shamsudeen Olaleye, against the popular choice of Mojeed Adam as the party’s candidate for the coming council poll.

Abeg Beaf, stop trying to make a tribal issue over this. What Afenifere is complaining about there is the incompetency of the government to tackle terrorism, which has being rearing its ugly face for the past 1 year. Let's call a spade a spade, your GEJ is in charge. Rather than trade blames on his behalf, you should encourage him to do better(dats if he knows how.)
