Look at this fools.
Illiteracy is when u blame buhari for inec postponement when u kw inec is an autonomous body instead of blaming any 1 we must come out to ensure inec chairman resigns.
Apc and pdp should clalm the tension by blaming incec only. My parents traveled all the way to adamawa to vote they are on their way back n i think they won't waste any money traveling next week that i kw
So expect a low turn out

Below is a Transcript of President Muhammadu Buhari's Speech at the Signing of a Second Peace Accord by Presidential Candidates today in Abuja.

Buhari signed a peace accord with the PDP Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar to prevent any fallout or crisis after Saturday's elections.

Buhari said;

"Another election is upon us and not unexpectedly, there is anxiety in the air. This is typical of any form of competition and contest, no matter how well prepared all contestants and regulators are. The forthcoming elections are very special and significant for the growth of our Democracy.

First, they come immediately after one of the most peaceful elections in the history of our country. I am not saying this because I was blessed to emerge as the winner. I am saying there had been a lot of fears and anxieties from within and outside Nigeria about the future of the country. We are hopeful that this is evidence that we are all maturing in our disposition towards electoral outcomes. We see this as an opportunity to grow our sense of political culture in Nigeria.

Secondly, we are witnessing an exciting development in the area of the engagement of our Youth and Women in the democratic process. Hitherto, these groups have often not been in the mainstream of our political competition. It is in appreciation of their contribution that we passed the Not Too Young to Run Bill last year. The success of the Act is illustrated by the unprecedented number of young men and women who have stepped forward to participate in this process as Candidates at all levels. Significantly, we have witnessed also the emergence of Women as Candidates across the political space.

Thirdly, these elections are taking place against the backdrop of the emergence of an unprecedented number of Political Parties. As of now, we have 91 Political Parties, out of which over 70 fielded Presidential Candidates. Although some Candidates have dropped out of the race, there is no doubt in our minds that our country is moving forward and that our democracy is expanding and also deepening.

I call on all Nigerians to contribute to the building of a viable polity by more active participation well beyond the mere casting of votes. Elections by themselves do not constitute Democracy. It is the spirit of citizenship engagement that utilizes the energy of citizens towards the attainment of good governance.

We have assembled here to mark the final phase of our campaigns and we are now at the doorstep of our elections. The Campaigns so far have gone well and we thank God for that. For the few incidents in which people lost their lives largely through accidents, we pray that God grants them eternal peace. Now campaigns are over and our next assignment is for us all, citizens and contestants alike, to go out and exercise our civic duties.

We, the Presidential candidates are here to sign and commit ourselves to do all that is possible to ensure the success of the elections but most importantly to accept the final outcome. I appeal to my fellow contestants to commit to these ideals so as to keep our country and people safe. The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, our electoral Umpire, has already assured us that they have done everything possible to ensure free and fair elections.

It was to ensure this that I made sure that INEC received all the resources they needed to perform their job. Our Security Agencies have been fully briefed and they know that their visible neutrality is key to the conduct, credibility and success of the elections.

To the Rt. Honourable Patricia Scotland, the Secretary General of the Commonwealth Secretariat, we extend our felicitations and welcome to you. Your presence here and your friendship mean a lot to us as a country. To the Members of the Diplomatic Corps, the International Team of Monitors, again, I say, welcome to Nigeria and thank you very much for standing by us. Your presence helps to validate our process and commitment to growing our Democracy.

I want to thank General Abdulsalami Abubakar, the Chairman of the National Peace Committee and all his members for the hard work they have put into ensuring that our Elections are peaceful. Your great work contributed significantly in shaping the 2015 elections and we are sure that the same impact will be felt in these elections.

To all our citizens, I want to thank you. As we go into the elections in few days, please let us pray for our country. Let us use this opportunity to strengthen our beliefs in a united country. Our elections are important only to the extent that they make our country peaceful and prepare us for development.

I am making a special appeal to our young people: Do not allow yourselves to be used to cause violence. Please eschew all forms of violence and cooperate with all the relevant agencies during these elections. We will vote according to Parties, but in the end, the only real Party is Nigeria, our country. Our elections are important only to the extent that they make her strong. Let us do our best and ask God to bless us and our country.

Thank you and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

ImmaculateJOE:
Buhari's look on the 4th picture shows he is not fully committed to the Peace Accord.

PapaBaby:
Lai Mohammed Amaechi and Gbemisola Saraki.

They say Saraki is not good for Kwara but yet they fraternise with a very low member of the Saraki dynasty.
If you want a Saraki, pick a real Saraki.

Your caption.

Aboki99:
When I see Ipod miscreants jubilating abt the Kano 'crowd Atiku pulled' and hinged their hope of winning the Presidential polls thereon, I laughed! If I choose to explain things to them, they no go understand so I chose to allow them to day-dream till February 16 when God himself will do practicals for them. Una stop wasting your time doing the theory for them! They no go comprehend am! The bird that calls for torrential rainfall will have itself to blame when it is soaked up from head to tail.

MacLite:
Is that lady Amaechi's wife

1. The crowd is nothing compared with the crowd that welcomed Buhari

2. The capacity of the campaign venue is a maximum of 40,000. If out of the millions of registered voters in Kano, a meagre 40,000 came to grace the rally, it shouldn’t mean anything to those who use reason.

3. Assuming #5000 was given to each person at the campaign venue (as alleged in some quarters and confirmed by some people in the Kwankwasiyyah group), a piffling sum of #200,000,000 would have been more than enough to gather such crowd.
I call this piffling not because I am wealthy but because Atiku spent much more than that during the PDP presidential primaries. He was confirmed to have given each delegate $5,000. Atiku got a total number of 1,532 votes during the PDP presidential primaries, so I will be limiting my calculation to this number on the assumption that those who voted for him were the only beneficiaries of the money (which can’t be true). If $5,000 was given to a delegate, the total amount spent would have been at least 2.7billion naira... (I used 360 as the exchange rate)

4. What he spent on just a hundred and fifty delegates can garner much more people than we saw yesterday. As we all know, the PDP is a party filled with people who are media freaks and would do anything to have a good image on social media rather than in reality.

5. What should be worrisome to the PDP(if they are thoughtful) is the fact that over 90% of the crowd were on red caps, which means if you don’t belong to the kwankwasiyyah movement, there is high likelihood that you don’t do Atiku..

6. A friend of mine who happens to belong to this movement told me clearly yesterday that, even if they were not paid, majority of them would have gone to welcome Atiku and cronies just because they wouldn’t want Kwankwaso to be disgraced...but this doesn’t change the fact that those who will be voting for Buhari in the presidential election are in the majority.

7. Kano State is so populated that even if the devil goes there for campaign, he would get at least 30,000 people to welcome him.


Thank you

JasonScoolari:
Sorry about your loss. May the Lord accept her soul.

buspid:


Atiku might eventually lose in Adamawa. Buba Marwa, Ribadu, Senator Binta and Jibrilla himself are strong forces that would prevent Atiku from winning the state. Aisha might not be a force but her siblings are also forces to reckon with in Adamawa.

JasonScoolari:
Atleast there's still one "Sane Cow" among them who miraculously used his brain this time to quickly dispel the notion that it was the PDP who carried out the attack.

The PDP is a peace loving party and it has been shown in all our rallies nationwide unlike some demonic party who always record death, chaos and scores of injured N2000 supporter's.


This is just another clear indication that the APC is like a mad woman's underwear, "Nobody wan see dem"

God bless the PDP
God bless Atiku/Obi
God bless Bukky "Ronaldo" Saraki
God bless Baba OGD
God bless Ben Common Sense Bruce
God bless Nyesom "Messi" Wike
God bless Peter "Ibrahimovic" Fayose
God bless Aminu "Pogba" Tambuwal
God bless Ifeanyi "Salah" Okowa
God bless Chief James "OgheneRonaldinho" Ibori.

MADAM, YOU HAVE NO CONSCIENCE.


SIMPLE

NairaMedia:
Mother of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, Mrs Olubisi Osinbajo, says anyone who doesn't believe the Buhari-led administration has done anything since they assumed office in 2015, is living in another world.



The 85 -year-old widow said this today when her son paid her a visit in her home during his house-to-house campaign in Somolu area of Lagos State.



The elated mother thanked God for sparing her son's life in the Kogi helicopter crash last weekend.

abduljabbar4:
As a, clone, at least the Sudanese guy has some of Buhari's genes but what of Atiku?

asobo:
Emir of Daura full smiles as he endorses Atiku.


Zombies and the way the reason baffles me.

Atiku will win in Adamawa that's certain.
Politics is local
#Operation deliver your zone if possible you polling unit.

Griezwoman:
Yesterday some area boys blocked Sowore's convoy, demanded for money from him or they would deflate his tyres.

The African Action Congress (AAC) Presidential candidate, Sowore was heard saying "No Shishi for bribe!

On sharing the moment on social media, he wrote;

LIVE: I confronted area boys who blocked the #TakeItBack convoy demanding for money while the police looked on saying “give them anything” I told them we are not thieves and I cannot give them anything because we are working hard to liberate them from their oppressors. This has been my experience in several places."

Its a fallout from the PDP days. Our money was just frolicking between a few.

jakD:
What did you expect from a party coordinated by Devil?

TEDHorsePower:
More like yoruba Muslims reacting and not NIGERIANS.


After watching Atiku-Obi and disastrous illiterate called Buhari, you will vote Atiku straight.

No sane person will waste any vote on the gworo chewing illiterate called Buhari.

id911:
Our incoming President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, is very humble, responsible and respectful. That's one of the reasons the youth of this country are queuing behind him

May Nigeria experience unity, peace, prosperity and economic boom in his tenure as from May 29, 2019. Amen

Shehucom:
I know most Anti buharist will think he his refering to the buhari Administration, they fail to see the rot that our past levers left us in.
