Come February 2015, when the election's result is finally announced, you will that your creator is your Lord. The One that knows it all. Until then, by His grace.

That is the way! The blind does not need to be told that, it is rainy. Change is urgently required for all round prosperity in Nigeria.

This is lovely!

What a belated, insensitive and long over due visit! It is crystal clear that, Jonathan is a careless and inhumane ruler. The personal interest of GEJ to be re-elected overrides the interest of his present office.

This is how it should be. Politics shouldn't be do or die affairs. Remember we are all brothers irrespective of our DIFFERENCES.

Mr Adeyeye! Yoruba people do not only interested in the development of Yoruba race alone, rather they are keen in the overall development of Nigeria as a nation. Hence, their agitation for;

Change!

Positive Change!!

Change For Prosperity!!!

Sai Buhari.

What a blatant lie? So, where is it from? From your loots or what?

All for God!

So unfortunate to have him as a President. He's so angry addressing the Lagosians. Is quite apparent that Kitchen is becoming more hotter for GEJ, instead of reviewing his achievements and rolling out his plans if elected, he was furiously talking of his critics forgetting that he has been in charge of the national affairs for the past 6 years.

I reject this in the name of Allah. 2015 is a year of abundant blessings for me and my family.

Even from the Arabic meaning of Islam which is Peace does not support any mission or action short of Peace, Harmony, Love and Compassion. So, whoever does anything in the name of Islam or in the context of Islamic teachings and values to the contrary, is not and should not be considered as a Muslim.

The pictures have brought fresh memories of the good old days.

One tragedy too many!

When shall we get it right in this nation of black conscience? Hardly will a month pass without one or more sectors of the economy embark on industrial action. Hence, there is always an adverse multiplier effects on the masses, as well as the economy as a whole.

Year Of Prosperous Change For Nigerians!

Oil money in the show! Any how he earns his money, so far the source is legitimate, nothing wrong. But is a must for him to assist the needies around him, aid the cause of humainty.

Even though we are quarreling, we don't wish each other death.

Sorry Mr current President.

But there has been no quarrel o. We are just trying to put things straight in our nationhood. Politics of bitterness is not good anywhere in the world. That is why we need a CHANGE not for a particular tribe/ethnic nor religious faithful, but for the generality of nigerians.

While trying to rubbish his personality, you ignorantly pointing out the need to be objective in analysing issue of national importance and effectively effect change that we urgently require as a nation.
Does he handle his twitter account personally? Then how has this picture proclaimed that Stealing is not a Corruption?
However, quickly google the meaning of up side down.

It is saddening. Unarguably, the human and mechanical factors have been famous for majority of road fatalities.

No matter the blackmail, the CHANGE must take place come Feb 14, 2015.

GMB! Mr President, Commander In Chief Of The Armed Forces, Federal Republic Of Nigeria. 2015-2019.

It is desirous to see PDP taking over the State of Harmony, but the Kwara PDP is lacking leadership & synergy required to dislodge self serving Bukola Saraki controlled Ahmed's administration.

One tragedy too many! May Allah to put an end to this blood let.

Buhari, anyhow u want am GEJ must win

Don't be silly. What has Buhari got to do with her death?

With less than 50 days to the start of general elections across the country, the Boko Haram insurgents are still in control of a total of 13 local government areas in the northeastern states of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.
The group is also exercising partial control over parts of at least 10 local government areas in Borno.

Elections would commence in 42 days nationwide on February 14 with the Presidential and National Assembly polls. They would be followed by governorship and states assembly elections on February 2015.
There have been fears that elections may not hold in territories under the control of Boko Haram, sparking increasing calls for the electoral law to be amended to give opportunity to persons who were displaced by the conflict to vote at the various places they are being sheltered.
But Nigeria’s security forces had insisted that all the territories under the insurgents would be liberated to pave way for the electorate to exercise their civic right.
Also, President Goodluck Jonathan had , after picking his party’s ticket to run for reelection last December, promised that elections would be held in all parts of the country, including the restive North-East region.
Checks by Sunday Trust, however, shows that a large size of Nigerian territory is still under the control of Boko Haram, even as the country has less than two months to go to polls
Thousands of residents have fled these areas since the group began capturing territories in August last year. Many others have also been killed.
Nine of the affected local governments are in Borno State and they are: Gwoza, Bama, Mafa, Dikwa, Kala-Balge, Ngala, Marte, Abadam and Mobbar. The other four are Michika and Madagali in Adamawa State, as well as Gujba and Gulani in Yobe State.
The insurgents have also established partial control in parts of some local government areas in Borno, comprising Mungono, Kukawa, Guzamala, Gubio, Magumeri, Damboa, konduga, Chibok, Askira Uba and Jere.
Before the outright takeover of many communities in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe states, the Boko Haram had earlier caused collateral damage in various places where they destroyed entire villages, markets, military barracks, police stations, governmental buildings, prisons, farmlands and other symbols of authority and worship places, including churches and mosques,.
But the notoriety of the group climaxed on August 23, 2014 when its leader, Abubakar Shekau, declared Gwoza town in southern Borno as the headquarters of what he called “Islamic Caliphate,” in a move that was a clear affront on Nigeria’s sovereignty. The sect dislodged the entire population of the town and kept it under its firm control.
Since then, the group had intensified its territorial conquest drive, culminating in the total or partial control of at least 20 out of the 27 local government areas of Borno State.
During the last Christmas in December 2014, deputy governor of Borno State, Zannah Umar Mustapha, disclosed that over two million people had been displaced from at least 20 local government areas of the state.
He stated this when he visited Yola, in Adamawa State, to celebrate the Christmas with some internally displaced persons (IDPs), who were taking refuge there.
In August last year, the army recaptured Damboa from the sect members who had earlier overrun it and hoisted its flag.
But attempts by the military to liberate other occupied towns like Bama, Gwoza, Marte and Abadam, among others did not succeed, paving way for the Boko Haram to continue perpetrating various atrocities, including stoning offenders to death or amputating their hands.
However, in neighbouring Adamawa State troops have succeeded in retaking four out of the six local government areas that were captured by the sect.
Most of the areas had been captured by the insurgents after Nigerian soldiers had reportedly abandoned their positions and fled with civilians, making it easy for the insurgents to take control of the towns.
The militants had seized about one-third of Adamawa, with Madagali, Michika, Mubi North, Mubi South, Maiha, Hong and Gombi areas firmly under their control before November last year.
But Michika and Madagali are still under Boko Haram, although unconfirmed reports indicate that the military are closing in on Michika after retaking Uba town.
The recent successes recorded by the military in liberating the four local government areas have restored confidence in the minds of the residents about the ability of the troops to win the war against the insurgents.
Within a week, soldiers assisted by local hunters dislodged the insurgents from Gombi, Hong, Maiha and Mubi following fierce battles at different locations that inflicted heavy casualty on the insurgents. Several soldiers were also said to have died.
A source told Sunday Trust that soldiers have set up camps near Michika town after a deadly encounter with insurgents in the area in which dozens of Boko Haram fighters were believed to have been killed.
Attempts to speak to the Deputy Director of Information in the 23rd Armoured Brigade Yola, Colonel Texas Chukwu, were not successful as he did not pick calls from our correspondent or return text message sent to him.

According to British outlet The Sun, West Bromwich Albion striker Saido Berahino will be allowed to leave the Hawthorns if a club comes in with a $30 million bid during the January transfer window. Berahino, 21, made his full England debut in 2014 and scored four goals in the Baggies’ FA Cup third round win on Saturday. Both Tottenham and Liverpool are reportedly interested in the young English striker as they look to bolster their forward line in the January sales. Is Berahino the answer?

[ RELATED: Pogba to United? Shaqiri to Liverpool? ]

Manchester United are rumored to be preparing a monster $118 million bid for Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba but it seems like they are lining up another deal. The Daily Express reports that Borussia Dortmund are ready to listen to offers for midfielder Ilkay Gundogan. The 24-year-old German midfielder has been a long-term target of the Red Devils and with BVB’s struggles worsening at the wrong end of the Bundesliga standings, January could be a good time to move on for the man who scored in the 2012-13 UEFA Champions League final.

Another player rumored to be on his way to United is Barcelona’s right back Dani Alves. The 31-year-old Brazilian is out of contract at Barcelona this summer and the Red Devils, according to the Mirror, are eager to sign the free agent to help ease their defensive woes.

Arsenal are going to nip in ahead of United for another player, according to The Sun, as Ipswich’s highly-rated teenage midfielder Teddy Bishop could end up at the Emirates. Bishop, 18, has been integral to the Tractor Boys’ success this season and he could leave Portman Road in a $16 million deal. Other teams from the PL are also keeping a close eye on the promising midfielder.

After becoming Crystal Palace’s new manager, Alan Pardew is set to make his first signing for the Eagles. Arsenal forward Yaya Sanogo, 21, is high on Pardew’s wishlist according to several reports, as the young Frenchman has struggled for minutes at the Emirates this season. Sanogo would be the second Gunner to leave on loan this week, with Lukas Podolksi heading to Inter Milan on loan for the rest of the season. Is Arsene freeing up some space for a big signing in January?

By the special grace of God so shall it be!

Otu is not only heartless, she is really ruthless and crazy.

I wish them a happy married life.

Hope they will get adequate penalty.

Ameena Yaa Allah.
