[size=16pt]i will advise Lagos state to publish the names of all igbo citizen who are currently employed by the state and give them 6months terminal leave and the SE states too can do the same(no yoruba man is in their employ)[/size]

Dereformer: Two things will make it eternally difficult for Ngige to even take a third place position in this coming election:
1. Belonging to the same party with Buhari a know and unrepentant terrorist sponsor and baboon,
2. Deportation saga

In the last election, Ngige brought ACN, an almost unknown party in Anambra, to limelight.

He was adviced, by those who understands, to leave APC immediately its registration sailed through but he wouldn't listen.

The truth is APC will never win even a counsellor position in the south east, south south and major parts of MB. Buhari's association with that party is a big minus for them.

Should buhari succeed in being the presidential candidate, then PDP will win convincinly even in the south west.
No familly of those corp members butchered after the last election will vote the baboon theorist.

My advice to Ngige, leave APC now and look for another party. Appologise to anabrarians for your wrongful position in the deportation saga. Otherwise, more stoning even ironing will come your way.

that means if Buhari joins PDP soludo should forget his ambition too?

solomon111: political naievity in full glare.
The entire SE belongs to GEJ irrespective of who is governor.
The end of amaechi tenure will end his relevance in rivers state as even the rivers indigenes are furious with him.
Edo state including oshiomole is also pro-GEJ irrespective of party affilliations.
The middle-belt are tired of northern hegemony and are also a Pro-GEJ zone.
Infact expect atleast 96% pro-GEJ vote in the SE/SS and 90% pro-GEJ votes in the middle-belts.

Oga what happens to GEJ base in the middle belt if APC chooses a candidate from Middle belt and Okorocha as the VP

sometimes i wonder if the ibos have any agenda to rule Nigeria. obviously they behave as if they don't need the support of the other regions to rule Nigeria. they abuse every tribes fight every tribes and yet want them to support them maybe in 2019. stop putting your faith in GEJ he can not subvert the will of the people to make an Igbo destitute a President of Nigeria

The newly registered All Progressives Congress has begun moves to draft a former Minister of Defence (retd.), General Theophilus Danjuma, into the 2015 presidential election race, Saturday PUNCH has learnt.

It was learnt that the North had foreclosed the possibility of getting the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential ticket with President Goodluck Jonathan’s grip on the party.

Investigations showed that the North had shifted its focus to the newly registered APC.

A source familiar with the permutations of the northerners confided in our correspondent that the region was desperately looking for a candidate, who could unite its people, who had been divided by religions.

He said, “Unlike in the First Republic when the late Saudana of Sokoto, Ahmadu Bello, was around, the North is divided. Some northern leaders reason that as part of efforts to reunite the region, Muslims must be ready to concede the Presidency to the Christian North. We are zeroing in on T.Y.Danjuma.”

It was, however, gathered in Abuja, on Thursday, that a final decision had yet to be taken because consultations were still on-going.

Another source in the APC said that the move to make Danjuma run on the APC platform had started creating discomfort in the party. He said, “What is happening now is really worrisome.

“We understand that the game plan is for the merger partners in the (defunct) CPC to produce the presidential candidate while the Action Congress of Nigeria is to produce the Vice Presidential candidate.

“General Buhari is still very much interested but some elements in the North with the active support of Generals Olusegun Obasanjo and Ibrahim Babangida, are looking towards TY Danjuma.

“The thinking is that he will have greater national appeal and he is perhaps the only person who Buhari can step down for, because of the tremendous respect he has for him.

“They are considering the option of co-opting him into the APC, using this window to give him a platform to challenge Jonathan, who appears almost certain to run on the PDP platform.”

Reacting to this scenario, the Spokesman for the Northern Elders Forum, Prof. Ango Abdullahi, said nothing should be ruled out.

According to him, since the North is desirous of providing better leadership for the country, an accomplished Nigerian of general Danjuma’s standing would not be a bad idea.

Abdullahi said, “We (the Northern Elders Forum) believe that the North should produce the President otherwise, the President of Nigeria in 2015 should be of northern extraction.

“Our position has been consistent that a suitably acceptable good candidate for the position of president should garner support hopefully not only in the North but also elsewhere in the country.

“If my friend is presented to me today, I will be the first to move around and canvass support for him.

“TY Danjuma is a personal friend and bearing his age, I would be one of those who will force him to run.

“But if the general agreement presents him, I will be the happiest for it.

“Obviously, Danjuma will have national and international appeal.

“We know the position is open to all of us, if we are a bit honest with ourselves, we will agree that one is better placed than the other and TY Danjuma should have perhaps been the president of the country many years ago.

“And perhaps he was the one who declined, otherwise people could have supported his leadership for the country many years ago and if he feels strong enough to provide that leadership, I will be one of those who will support him.”

When asked if the retired general’s age of 74 would not be a hindrance, Abdullahi said, “We are now looking at the person and his known abilities and the known character he is associated with.

“Nobody can challenge the suitability of Gen. TY Danjuma to provide leadership for the country.

“What we are saying is that if he feels inclined and he feels strong enough and willing, I am saying that I will be one of those who will give him support.”

However, a former Parliamentarian, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, does not share this optimism.

He said, “If our leadership crisis is real or contrived, meaning that the political class has become so irresponsible that nobody is thinking about the future of the country, then we are in trouble.

“If what I just said was true, then we have a very serious problem, because it seems we have to be going backwards to look for leaders who will lead us forward.

“That is not a characteristic of a forward looking progressive society. In fact, a society so condemned to this kind of thinking is permanently doomed and its survival is equally doomed.”

When contacted, National Publicity Secretary of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, Mr. Rotimi Fashakin, said it was too early to talk about the presidential ticket.

According to him, those who join the APC afresh will enjoy equal opportunities just like those who were pioneer members.

He said, “Everybody is going to start on a fresh platform, we are starting anew. It’s too early to start talking about the presidential candidate for the party at this point.

“We will not allow anybody to distract us because we still have to go for a convention to elect our officials. It is not the interim committee currently in place that will provide these modalities.

“It is automatic that I am a member of the APC as a member of one of the legacy parties.

“But I have to go to my ward to physically register just like every member is required to register.

“It’s not like, because I am carrying a CPC card then it will suffice. No. Everybody will have to be registered to become a member.

“The legacy parties (ANPP, CPC, ACN) are meeting on Tuesday next week to work out some of these modalities. It is a huge task before them. I don’t envy these 35 folks at all.

“It is when an elected executive is in place that they can draw up the necessary modalities on how candidates will emerge.”

klems4real: BB Unlimited Month- N1,500. Dial *440*16# or send 'bbum' to 440 for more information or visit their Facebook fan page to see for yourself. Though I know some people have already subscribed to the so called 2.98GB capped Airtel unlimited plan and they are unable to use it on non blackberry devices. Good news my people, am happy to tell you that your money is not wasted. To effectively use it on your PC/Phones, do this: Load Airtel Recharge card of #100 on a line you used to subscribe to a blackberry unlimited plan of #1,500, dial *141*712*11# to subscribe for Airtel 10mb daily plan. Start browsing with it and your blackberry subscription of #1500 will start working after you exhaust the daily 10mb you subscribed to. Tested and Confirmed.

I did it but I got this "You can only switch between day night and weekend plans after exhausting youir bundle"

If people wants to fight. You people should organize your fight well. It shouldn't be about BB vs Android. You pple failed to ask why BB users have cheap data! BB data is high because its routed through RIM servers. Since androids don't provide such then you can't compare. However we should fight against general expensive data on all platforms. PC and mobile.

Its minority mentality. They see that GEJ has performed woefully but they want everybody to support him forgetting that the pple are not sentimental about performance. GEJ needs to perform to win but for now only SS and SE will blindly vote for him.

Pls I'm looking for dates in Lagos

dridowu: Drainage system in Nigeria is generally bad not just 4 lagos.

Some hours ago Cameroonian/Nigerian singer Dencia who was at the BET Awards with Iceprince took to Twitter to express her displeasure at what she thinks is totally rude.
According to Dencia, Ice Prince received his award with none of the big international stars in the audience but somehow BET got to edit Ice Prince’s video and made it appear he was in front of the live audience.

It turns out this year, Ice Prince’s BET award presentation was per-recorded on stage unlike in previous years when the awards were presented to winners in a room, backstage.
The taping was done hours ahead of the main ceremony

THE CHALLENGE

How do two people who have vowed to love each other get to the point where they refuse to talk for hours—or even days? ‘At least we stopped fighting,’ they tell themselves. Still, the issue has not been resolved, and they both feel uncomfortable.

WHY IT HAPPENS

Retaliation. Some spouses use silence as a form of revenge. For example, suppose a husband makes weekend plans without consulting his wife. When she finds out, she is angry and calls him inconsiderate. He responds by calling her oversensitive. The wife storms off and stews in silence. In effect, she is saying, “You hurt me, so I am going to hurt you back.”

Manipulation. Some use the silent treatment as a means to get what they want. For example, imagine that a husband and wife plan a trip and the wife would like to take her parents along. The husband objects. “You’re married to me, not to your parents,” he says. He then gives his wife the silent treatment, shunning her in the hope that she will break down and concede to his wishes.

Of course, a temporary time-out can give a couple the opportunity to let emotions cool when an argument is getting out of hand. That type of silence can be beneficial. The Bible says that there is “a time to keep quiet.” (Ecclesiastes 3:7) But when it is used as a means to retaliate or manipulate, the silent treatment not only prolongs conflict but also erodes the respect the couple have for each other. How can you prevent that from happening to you?

WHAT YOU CAN DO

The first step to ending the silent treatment is to recognize it for what it is—a tactic that, at best, works only short-term. True, not talking may quench your thirst for retaliation or compel your spouse to give in to your wishes. But is that really how you want to treat someone whom you have vowed to love? There are better ways to resolve conflicts.

Be discerning. The Bible says that love “does not become provoked.” (1 Corinthians 13:4, 5) So don’t overreact to such emotionally charged statements as “You never listen” or “You are always late.” Instead, discern the intent behind the words. For instance, “You never listen” might really mean “I feel as if you don’t take my viewpoint seriously.”—Bible principle: Proverbs 14:29.

Think of your spouse as your teammate rather than an opponent

Lower your voice. Arguments tend to escalate as they continue. On the other hand, you can change the direction of a heated discussion. How? The book Fighting for Your Marriage says: “Softening your tone and acknowledging your partner’s point of view are potent tools you can employ to diffuse tension and end escalation. Often that’s all it takes.”—Bible principle: Proverbs 26:20.

Think of “we” instead of “me.” The Bible says: “Let each one keep seeking, not his own advantage, but that of the other person.” (1 Corinthians 10:24) If you think of your spouse as your teammate rather than your opponent, you will be less likely to take offense, argue, and then refuse to talk to your spouse.—Bible principle: Ecclesiastes 7:9.

The silent treatment runs counter to the Bible’s admonition: “Let each one of you individually so love his wife as he does himself; on the other hand, the wife should have deep respect for her husband.” (Ephesians 5:33) Why not make an agreement with your spouse that the silent treatment is unacceptable in your marriage?
