dridowu: Boko haram pple are abnormal & ready to die, if d optn dat will guarantee peace is Dialogue , dn i support the FG. Dos dat did not support d dialogue should give anoda optn. D best optn for now is Dialogue, so dat PEACE can reign..

lacasa: Well, david mark has given his opinion on the matter anϑ i wld say he has chosen τ̅o take the easy way, instead of the real hard truth abt boko-haram.

if he thinks bokoharam is purely a religious issue then, i think our senate president is not being true τ̅o himself anϑ Nigerians as a whole.

what fuels violence the fastest in any society is first of all "Poverty anϑ Unemployment". Without this, i doubt even if there were radical preachers anϑ financial sponsors for committing suicide bombings, it wldnt be †ђªt easy to find the people τ̅o carry these bombs anϑ commit suicide bombimgs.

if tђere wasn't an alarming rate of poverty anϑ unemployment in Nigeria; the north in this case, i dnt think religious fanatists wld be our problem.

Let's not forget, "an idle mind they say is the devil's workshop".

The Senate president is from Benue state which falls under the Northern region (former middle-belt) anϑ part anϑ parcel of the Northern Political Elites.

What i can deduce from his statement is †ђªt if he goes with the reality †ђªt the level of poverty anϑ worrying levels of unemployment in the region is as a failure of good leadership from the same people such as himself who ave been at the top echelon of power, during the IBB regime where he was a governor to a minister of communication anϑ now presently the Senate President.

He has used this stance τ̅o shy away from the fact that if he goes with the fUll "reality" of the situation, it wld be a confession of incompetence anϑ bad leadership on his part as a top northern leader anϑ elite for well over 20 years.

Though, i agree †ђªt the religious leaders need τ̅o be checkmatd on the kind of teachings anϑ radical views †ђªt can give rise τ̅o fanatism in both Islam anϑ Christianity, but the most important anϑ urgent problem is the problem of "Poverty anϑ Education".

i just don't see Ђδω an educated man †ђªt has something doing striving τ̅o develop himself anϑ upgrade hos social standing anϑ †ђªt of his family as we all aspire τ̅o, will fall victim τ̅o radical teachings and go with a bomb τ̅o waste his life anϑ others after enduring the hassles of educating anϑ empowering himself for years, be him a muslim or a xtian.

I for one can't fathom Ђδω.

Pakavy: wats ur idea of an average northerner?

Pukkah: Thank you for this sensible post.

Pukkah: What has the government done DIFFERENTLY in other to get a DIFFERENT result?

The cycle is the same: there's a bomb blast, people rave, mourn and rant, they abuse and insult Buhari and other Northerners/muslims, they console the bereaved and sign the condolence register, some also donate to survivors and we go back to our businesses as usual; expecting/praying that such will never happen again. But it happens and happens again...

berem: i think am tired of hearing stories about bomb blast! next story pls!!

Aroworowon: i think pdp should address more important issues than paying so much attention on general buhari‘s personal comment.

egift: I am in support of prosecuting everyone that is troubling this nation. But when prosecuting only Buhari while those battalions of criminals in PDP that are being shielded by the presidency, is the only thing that make sense to you, then your head examined.

Ebong Tami: Sentiments!

egift:
You are very deluded. As the asked you earlier, How Old Are You? You reason like kid. I mean how can you say Buhari is under Idiagbon? That is a fish brain level.

Or you also believe that Jonathan is under Sambo? As I said earlier, Jonathan have lowered every standards to the pits that as his supporter, you are very comfortable with such ignorance.

Buhari is a great leader that is result oriented in all he does, allow those that work with him the liberty to carry out their responsibilities. The same cannot be said for the one that in charge now.

THEN THIS

You got it wrong:
- I have not made any comment in support or against the attack on JEGA. My comments are against politicians that rig elections.
- As a person, I support the full weight of the law on those who steal the people's mandate during elections. I must also note that till date those who steal mandates are very free to walk around.
- My problem with Jonathan is just simple; he is protecting individuals and groups that are attacking Nigerians. If he have evidence that Buhari is culpable, arrest and prosecute him. And do the same for everyone else who is against this nation (irrespective of his political party, religion or ethnicity).

But long as he keeps protecting the "cabals", I will always consider him their gang leader. These are my stand.

Beync: . Exactly what many people don't know.
