Politics / Re: The Change APC Needs Is A Perception Of Their Kind Of Change by BobNeli(m): 7:04pm On Mar 23, 2015
voltron:
You don;t know what change is if you until you have met APC
No doubt. I'm begining to decode the actual meaning of change by the APC's manifesto. And by what we have on the papers, it's quite an undesirable change. What we need after all is progress instead of an ambigious change
Politics / The Change APC Needs Is A Perception Of Their Kind Of Change by BobNeli(m): 5:54pm On Mar 23, 2015
APC has taken Nigerians, the people they promise to represent their intrest completely forgranted. Do you represent a people by forcing and ramming your personal opinion down their spines? Does the people you intend to represent have a voice? Do they have any right at all to make any impute on how they choose to be represented? In trying to profer pertinent answers to these salient questions, let us review the attitude of the CHANGE propagandists towards the demands of Nigerians with respect to the just concluded presidential debate. It will be pertinent here to recall one the most profound master pieces of public speach wich advocates "obidience before complaints." Did the change propagandists recognise it? But if we are not bothered by these questions, what about the disrespect metted out to Nigerians by the manner of impunity of a group advocating change to its people by not minding what they wanted or how they would feel about it. Having disrespected Nigerians, they deemed it fit to conjure an incomprehensive excuse, bereft of facts to exonorate their incompetence. What a change?

Politics / Re: Buhari & Debate: The Leopard Doesnt Change Its Spots! by BobNeli(m): 12:22pm On Mar 18, 2015
OP are you seriousely demanding Buhari to stand for an hour adressing a Nigeria audience? This is not going to be like a script written adress where he will be reading out but another man's opinions. How do you expect him to figure out answers for the unexpected questions he would be fielding from the audience? What baffles me most is not the fact that he is not mentally capable of a debate of such magnitude but his deceitful nature that disallows him to accept his incompetence and tell the Nation the truth. O yaa! We have seen Goodluck's answers to the debate from his 4yrs administration. What then? Let's hear you out mr fugitive. Your own side of the debate. And see if you are a better option. How now can we count on you? I'd rather stick to the facts I have seen than the ones embeded in one man's heart.

A credible opposition to a corrupt and non performing party of 16 years is the liability to Nigeria, not the corrupt and non performing party of 16 years? Sycophants will always be sycophant.
A credible party which is more of a waste conduit of the PDP party. How many APC governors were not previousely PDP? Credible in the likes of Bola Tinibu, Amechi, Atiku Abubakar etc. The 16yrs you've just counted was supervised thus: 8yrs under Obasanjo who is now the APC's advocate. Because he has seen that Goodluck's 4yrs in administration eclipses the total of his 8yrs democratic rule plus 3rs he spent under military dictatorship. Thesame Obasanjo who left prison a pauper. Who decleared that he had not morethan N20,000.00 left in his account whilst he was being called by the group that wanted him to represent their intrest. But who is he today after 8yrs of embezlement. He owns the coconut worlf in Lagos. His Ota farm that was almost breeding weeds started generatin morethan N30m a month in net income. However, having failed in trying to impose his greedy self on the administration of the second true democratic leader Nigeria has ever witnessed, in Goodluck Jonathan after Umaru Musa Yaradua. He switched allegiance to where he knows there is no will power to transform the country and get it rid off people like him (Obasanjo), Bola Tinibu, etc, who continues to hold this country hostage. Three out of the remaining 8yrs was properly managed by Yaradua, though death could not allow him write his name on gold. Well, Goodluck took the barton from where he stopped and since then has remained focused in the midst of the numerous challenges created for him by the so called APC memebers today, who sworn to make the nation ungorvanable for him. God in heaven knows he's the man to deliver Nigeria from the teaming number of sychophants that has held this great nation at ransome for the past 50yrs. He still have 4yrs to finish the duty Almighty has placed in his hands and nobody can stop it.

Pls tell us where Jonathan is getting all the billions he's spending on this election? Coz naija is practically bankrupt right now yet GEJ can spend billions bribing ppl for votes coz he can't run on his record. Am waiting for your answer. Thanks in anticipation.
If you have been in this country for the past 4 months now atleast, you wouldnt be asking this question unless you are excommunicated from the news. There was a fund raising party where prominent business men dolled out their hard earned cash to support his re-election. It was an open ceremony and when APC earmarked the amount of money raised, their eyes bulged to the extent, Buhari tried ganneering a political point by saying that such an ammount of money is better invested in capital building, for the nation. Forgetting that, those where donations made by individuals and must be used for the purpose for which it was raised. It wasn't a public fund. Meanwhile, APC in their deceitful manner, raised an ammount that could not even stand the challenges of a gubernitorial campaign alone. However, today they have spent morethan ten times that ammount that was realised from their fund raising party. While news had been awash how the APC decampee governors, viz Rochas Okorocha, governor Amechi, Raji Fashola, Kwankwoso. Etc, has milked their respective states to sponsor APC. For instance, in Imo state, workers are being owed 4 months salary. Council of chiefs disbanded. Local govt chairmen sacked. Contractors owed because Rochas made it clear that there is no money in Imo state's treasury to handle these. Well, he had donated these money with a promise that the party will refund when they grab power. Tell me what their transparency will look like?

Politics / Apc Is But A Liability To Nigeria by BobNeli(m): 11:46pm On Mar 17, 2015
The APC as a party, by it's modus operanda has offered no less than a liability to Nigeria. The desperacy contained in APC's manifesto to wrestle power by all means has led it to bankrupcy. Having exhusted their financial might, they are now left with no other remedy than propaganders to heat up the polity and confuse the electorate with their ill fated promise of change. But the simple question Nigerians should ask before ceding their destinies and welfare to these group of lazy cabals who know no how else to amass wealth than scramble for the nations treasury, is. "How do they want to bring about their so promised change in the face of bankrupcy?" the much APC has borrowed, can only be paid from the fedrations account. And how are they going to promise us transparency in the discharge of their duties with the alarming debt they must refund? How much coruption can Buhari be fighting in the face of these compromised conditions?

It is well said that "the wise does not strike his foot against a stone twice". "Once bitten, twice shy". If you deceive me once, call your self a fool. But if you deceive me twice, then know that I'm a fool for sure. The north can not be termed fool for falling prey to the snare of a south westerner, (Obasanjo) who knowing fully well, the health conditions of our erstwhile president, Umaru Musa Yaradua. Still adopted him in place of all the available and healthy candidates from the North. The aftermaths today, we all know. Why should we Northerners toll thesame lane by letting our destinies being played in the hands of another greedy south westherner who schemed the healthy Atiku Abubakar out, from the primaries and wishes to adopt a man, whose health is in questionable conditions once again. From the fore-going, it is deductible that Buhari's health has been failling him. After about two weeks rest in London, Buhari could not show up in the rally termed "one million man match" organised in his honour, in Lagos. And it will quite be foolhardy for the North to remain susceptible to the gimmickry of another south westerner scheming to wrestle power away from the North. It is better for us Notherners to sacrifice this four years than let ourselves being deceived into loosing another eigth years plus in a case, our suspitions become material. It is better to choose a lesser evil between two. The Northern ambition is bigger than Buhari's personal Ambition.

APC (section of their Northerners) did this by mobolizing Boko Haram the minute they saw GEJ take power from a Northerner.

APC also have fine this with campaign against corruption as if it was something invented in Nigeria the past five years.

They then used the "Change" slogan to bamboozle the weak-minded to follow their tune. They made GEJ seem like the sole corruption (Yet Nigeria is known worldwide before GEJ was a governor for being corrupt, 419, fraud through email etc.).
The only president in this country whom I know has fought coruption is the one we are bashing. GEJ has been mean in the fight against coruption. Determined to institute total war against coruption to the extent he wishes for a fresh and unbaiased constitution that will aid a thorough fight against it. If people like OBJ has done anything against coruption, I do not think, coruption would remain at the level it is today. What did Obasanjo do? Established a commission with which to fight his political enemies. One question which has remained unanswered till today is "how can we explain the incoruptibility of a man who used the EFCC to bring so many of his enemies to book, yet has not acounted to the populace he managed their resources for good eight years, how he transformed from a pauper, who barely owned N20,000 before his acenssion, to a multi trillonia today? But EFCC went blinb eye. The diference in Goodluck's coruption fight tactis is in his deplomacy which the uneducated in the past, who had by virtue of oprtunities, mounted the mantle of leadership of this great Nation, never had. Lets vote national confrence resolution implementation

Saw this on a friend's facebook wall. Look familiar?

The Hegelian Dialectic;

This is where the ruling elite create a problem, anticipating in advance the reaction of the population to the crisis and thus conditioning the people for a call to change. When the population is properly conditioned, the desired agenda of the ruling elite is presented as the solution.

The solution they present is never designed to solve the problem but to serve as a basis for a new problem or to exacerbate the old one. When a newly created problem reaches boiling point, it becomes the focus for the people to call for change again....This process is repeated over and over all the time, moving society towards whatever end point they have in mind...'problem-reaction-solution'

The clamor for 'change' is a common rhetoric used in all democracies.

Politics / Whilst Buhari Was Preparing For A Walk, Goodluck Was Preparing For A Race. by BobNeli(m): 2:39pm On Mar 07, 2015
Could it have been coincidental? Am sure PDP and APC can never walk tother as to know each others schedules. Well, somethings are better left mystical as they seem. Though nothing happens in vain. There are natural occurences atimes that come to direct our views and refine our crude understanding of a fact, in other to help us erase our doubts and confusions, then get us focused on our Devine mandate. What am I saying? It's obvious that the seat of the presidency is such a challenge, that demands youthfulnes and agility. And from these turn out of events, it is deductible that between Goodluck Jonathan and Mohammadu Buhari, only one has the capacity to shoulder the responsibilities beseting the manttle of leadership in this country. Because eventhough Jonathan had been busy for the past 4-5yrs now, working round the clock, ensuring that Nigeria keeps going. He still have enough steam running in him that he was able to engage in a race excersise with renowned sports icons. However, Buhari, even having had enough rest in London as his wife narrated earlier, still could not manage a walk scheduled on his behalf by his image makers. My question is; why is the APC party denying the public, the real health status of the man they want to convince us to repose our mandate in? He was shielded from a debate on flimsy excuses. He went for a packaged Charttam house adress. They yet wanted to convince us Buhari didn't visit London for medical attetion by organising what they termed a one million man match. But where was the general to be seen?

Eggcelent, your last comment realy is wonderful. I must commend that kind of understanding. No disputes on anything you said there. And to assure you of my indipendence, I wished we had something better than Buhari in APC. Buhari's antecedents do not speak good of him. And his present actions have not bettered the records either. Forget the words. I wished we had somebody like Tambuwal as the presidential flag bearer there. I also wished Bola Ahmed Tinibu is not the leader of the APC. Please remember to reach me after the elections. Because I'm certainly sure that just immidiately after the elections, whether APC wins or looses, we must see cracks along the cohesive lines of that party. Their case is synonymous with theives who on operation, show solidarity. But when once the loot is ready. Greed ensures and puts them at variance with each other. I already foresee some of its hierarchy abandoning what they afore-hand, believed in. There will be so much greed and manipulations which Buhari at his age and mental capacity now, may not be able to handle, if they win. However, the most important reason I would still want to vote Goodluck Jonathan, maybe, not just PDP, is because I see transformative agendas in him that this country truely needs to excel. Talking about (1) The implementation of the National conference resolutions which the opposition are hard-bent on scuttling. (2) the railway system that is comming in to being again. (3) the SME empowerment policy that is sure to help diversefy the economy and create better employment. Because all it will take, is one, having a business idea then, apply for finance. I do not see any better policy than this. The second Niger bridge will reduce trafic congestions on the East-West, East-North routes and enhance cheap and equitable transportation of goods and services. (4) The Agricultural empowerment policy which has seen our Agric sector gearing up to meet with exporting capacity. (5) the Industrialization policy, which unlike during Obasanjo's regime, gave monopoly to Aliko Dangote, has giving well meaning business Nigerians, licences to operate. A single act that unequivocally, has unemployment death warant, signed. We now see cement factories like Ibeto cement, dangote cement, eagle cement, etc. Enhancing competition and productivity. Just take a look at the price of cement in the market today. We see the INNOSON automobile manufacturing company in existence. Something that has been denied Nigerians by previous administrations. How about foreign investors like the NISAN automobile company and so on and so forth? And today we have our GDP grown, projecting Nigeria to one of the fastest growing economies in the world. (6) this government has taken a good stride in the fight against corruption though tactically. As we can see in the agenda behind the removal fuel subsidy; extraction of ghost workers from pay roll. Check out the long lasting impase between the govt. and ASSUP. An eye opener that brougth to our notice, the level of misapropriation of funds by that body. All these and more had been happening under our nose but by the adroit leadership of our transforming president. Let's not be swayed by the unconfirmed allegations of the angered few whose selfish intrests, imbue to raise dusts, so as to discredit a performing leadership, in a bid to turn the people's mind against it for the fulfilment of their personal agrandisements. During Sanusi's allegations saga, it was from N20b to N10b and later N30b, yet, none was confirmed. With the exception of stella Odua who was equally deposed of her duties. None of those allegations had ever been confirmed. Meanwhile, it will also be pertinent to educate ourselves that the change we are talking about is an one that will surely take us 4 years back from here because it has been an antecendent in this country that opposition hadly supports and carry on with its predecessors work on ground. So, to move Nigeria fowards from here, we need continuity.

BobNeli. It is interesting how you claim not to be a political jingo. However, it isn't really important because I consider you civil & intelligent, though set in your opinion that PDP deserves to remain in power. Everybody can't be for any particular political party. Another thing I find interesting is PDP members fixation on Tinubu & his perceived influence on the APC. If the man were all you say he is, why hasn't the PDP-led FG with its law enforcement agencies arrested, prosecuted & imprisoned the man? At least, that would have weaken the opposition enough to give PDP a clear ride to ASO Villa. The point here is that a political party is bigger than an individual. We - I mean enlightened people like you & I - shouldn't join others in trivialising our political institutions. In matured democracies, institutions are bigger than individuals. Tinubu shouldn't be singled out & made an issue. Talking about corruption, what has GEJ done about it in the past 5 years? A President who defended a minister serving under him by downplaying the issue with his infamous "ordinary stealing isn't corruption" isn't someone to trust to spearhead a war against corruption.
Eggcelent! Eggcelent!eggcelent. Before I butress my points the more, I'd like to start by saying "whenever, you want to believe something. You only seek the arguements for it and become blind to the arguements against it." such is the state of human mind. Everybody seems to be stereo-typed. Once you've said NO or YES. Your whole muscles conract to defend, not just your opinion now, but your ego and sense of importance. That is why I personally do not enjoy indulging into convincing people against their wills. I'm only doing what I'm doing here because the consequences of the kind of costly mistake we might be making in bringing APC into power will prove to be grave. Let me clerify you the more. Have you asked your humble self, the source of the APC financial support? How much was it they realised during their public funds raising party? Can you compare that to their spending capacity so far? From where comes the exces? Okay, maybe, you do not have an inklin. The various governors who decamped from PDP to join up with APC in their respective states, are suffocating the economies of their states for APC. Refrence from governor Rochas Okorocha of imo state. Go to Imo state today, no bank in Imo state lends money anymore. Do you know why? Because governor Rochas Okorocha has been unable to pay contractors who borrowed money from the banks to execute their respective contracts. These banks beeing owed now, no longer have confidence in sponsoring contracts with the hope of getting their dividends. Recently, these contractors held a prayer session against the governor. That not withstanding, he just disolved the council of chiefs as well as Local government care-taker chairmen. Citing lack of funds. He said that these organisations can no longer hold because Imo state is owing. Inquire from Imolites and find out yourself. Well, the question is. Why is Imo state owing under his watch? The answer is not far fetched. Most of the funds ment for the day today running of the state's affairs have been diverted to the sponsorship of APC. And one fact we must all be abreast of is. Before the APC party, making us a promise of fighting corruption starts doing anything on that note, they will first of all remit all these misapropriated funds. That on its own will amount to steeling from the fedration accounts. But we all were aware when the PDP's campaign funds raising was done. Even the APC who became intimidated by the figure, tried to instead castigate it and hopped to achieve political points by so doing. What I want to establish here is to enphasize on the adage that "the devil you know is better than the Angel you do not know". Morever, talking about fighting corruption by the present administration. If you are an adroit person, you will understand with me that tactical approach to issues, offers better chances of triumph than force. If you can refer back to during Obasanjos regime, when the issue of Niger Delta millitancy was in vogue. With all his forcefull military might, could he stop it? The famous Udi massacre wich is tantamount to genocide could not do anything to reduce it. Not until an educated Yaradua came and deviced the amnesty program. If you check into the encyclopedia of renowned world leaders who at one time or the other changed the course of events withing their jurisdictions. You will find out that, they have achieved such feats through diplomacy and tactis rather than abuse of power like some people are clamouring. Such tactical and adroit approach is what president goodluck Jonathan has employed. First, he disengaged the oil cabals by removing subsidy which we all did not understand but fought to stop. Today, we have all come to terms with the benefits of that. He also has disegaged ghost wokers.

Ok. As to assets declaration, it'll be the height of naivety to believe that Buhari has only a million naira in his account. At least, he is entitled to N23 million monthly as a former Head of State. He can't just spend it all. And as a 72 years old man, there is no doubt he'll have well-to-do children who are contributing to his welfare. As to the APC leaders having skeletons in their cupboards. Yes, they do. And so are their PDP counterparts. Same applies to public/civil servants. THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ASKING AS CITIZENS HERE ARE; has the PDP government done enough in the past 16 years given the resources available to deserve another 4 years? is the APC presenting a better alternative given the competence of personalities therein & understanding of the challenges at hand?
Talking about the competence of personalities there in the APC party. Can you actually pinpoint them? If I may ask? Do you truely have the score-cards of Bola Ahmed Tinibu? And I want to tell you that he, rather than general Buhari, is the real God-father and image of that consortium. His influence on that party is so overbearing that his words are bonds in there. Remember that Fashola contradicted him on the choice of the Lagos state APC gubernitorial candidate but was only disgraced at the primaries. The choice of Osibanjo as Buhari's running mate was also his mastermind. Admist, news being awash how he brokered a deal with Osibanjo to resign and step down for him after six months. Knowing that picking up the ticket from the begining would hampere their ambitions, since the idea of a moslem to moslem ticket would not sale. If you take your calculations very well, you will arrive at, his calculated attempt to become nigeria's president before 2019. Judging from Buhari's age and health conditions that is being kept obscore. However, the most important fact I'd like you to understand about this "change" mantra is that, there is no reality of it contained in their manifesto. They are mere deceptions. Or, can you tell me how a "change" proponents are fighting against the major element that is going to bring about that change and yet wish to use change as a smoke screen to deceive many? The implementation of the national conference resolutions is the sure element of change we need, but these people are against it. If we vote them in. All those efforts and resources put at at the confrence would be null and void. The status quo will remain thesame and it will be dificult to fight and subdue corruption within the context of the 1999 constitution. Remember that if you want to fight corruption, corruption will fight you back. And when corruption has some ingredients from your constitution to fight you back, it becomes practically impregnable to be defeated. So my brother, let us vote for the real change or transmformation as anyone may choose to call, and not a deceptive one. Lets not waste this opportunity to reposition our dear father land. I am a patriot not a political jingo.

Eggcelent:
. Can you kindly clarify your above statements? Meanwhile, I assumed at the start of this thread that you were interested in an unbiased discussion. However, I've seen from your recent posts that you are a marketer of the Jonathan candidacy. Hence, you may not be absolutely objective in your contributions. Nothing wrong with that as it is your inalienable right under a democratic government to hold your own view. In conclusion, I must commend the civility with which you have responded to all issues herein raised. Such is rare on this platform.
Thanks for your civility too. Well, what I meant by my statement, "atleast I have been in this country for the past 4 months" simply refers to that, I've witnessed the entire electioneering campaigns so far. But you misunderstood it to mean that I'd been living outside the shores and only came in 4 months ago. Again, when I said "it coroborates the manner and tactis of our face for change". You did remember me also qouting a statement Buhari made in his eagerness to declare his assets, which nobody demanded him yet. "I have atleast N1m in my account". Many questions trailled that statement. As most people demanded to know the actuall amount he had. Since "atleast, N1m" could also mean, N1b or more. I merely played with your misconception of my quote and also hopped to use it to butress more facts about what I've sensed from the whole ambigious CHANGE mantra. Those guys have a lot of skeletons in their cupboard

Am i the only one noticing, or is NIgeria so unfortunate, that we have jst a clueless president and his dumb vice? undecided............... We only hear osinbajo this, buhari that, "good"luck this angry... but nofin from that cowardly samboribobo tongue embarassed
The reason is not far fetched. It's because Buhari is incomplete without Osibanjo. You know na, as an illiterate. But Goodluck Jonathan is completely, in all ramifications, representing PDP. So there may be litle or no need mentioning sambo yet

APC WITCHCRAFT BROOM CARRYING PARTY


The Schizophrenic sick Pa Buhari is a terrorist, deranged old brainless super clueless bastard
Apc is boko haram
Thiefnu.bu is a pedophile drug dealer and a cocain sniffer

Buhari can only be president in sambisa and shekau would hand over to him.

Osinbajo is fake and a loafer

Amechi and Fashola are errand boys
take it easy my brother. You may not have to call them names. We are only on this forum to educate ourselves and enlighten especially the less privilleged to understand the implications of their decisions b4 any mistake is made. To achieve such, you need humility and wisdom. Because if you tell a man to do a thing, he wouldn't, but let him see that it is for his own good to do thesame, he will do it.
