So Jonathan has been practicing with the presidency of Nigeria? After 5 years he is now ready for the job? Truly, the years of the locusts, now that our wealth has really been squandered he wants to sit up? Mtcheeeeeew

[b]Amaechi will so suffer after this elections. That is a fact. I give him may 29th he would be busy crying his eyes out. Amaechi my advice for you. I was once like you, following hausa people until my eyes began to open. They would make sure you are enemies with your fellow christians, get necessary informations from you, use you like a fool, then they will DUMP YOU in such a way that your fellow christian brothers would not even use a 20m pole to touch you not to talk of helping you (because they must have seen you as a betrayer hence lost confidence in you). They would make you hated. Goodluck is soooooo wise to have ran to his fellow christians because this is what will make him win. FACT! Have you guys ever noticed(for those of you with hausa friends) that whenever you are together with them, when they see any of their fellow islamists, they so much abandon you to the extent you will feel like nothing. They are such fanatics.
Nigerians tell me if true true dem no wan islamize us, wetin be the meaning of that Arabic inscription for our naira note? Nigeria na Arabic nation?
Why is it that they always bite their teeth whenever a christian is in power (even though the christian is trying his best)? It was done to obasanjo, now goodluck
Mtcheeeeeew. Amaechi would be dumped no matter what. They are only using him in other to make him an enemy of christians and to get the secret of christianity (I.e how they can capture christians to vote for them) shikenan! After that, they will throw him into a THRASH CAN! I HAVE SAID SO. You guys will bear me witness GOD's Grace because I SAID SO [/b]

So it wasn't Jonathan that was following hausa on pdp ticket when he was Yaraduas VP? And the ten million votes he got in the north in 2011 are now irrelevant? The APC thanks you mightily, for this great gift. Keep throwing you bigoted comments at the north, and see what the response will be on the 14th. The APC thanks you in advance, on your hopeless vote-winning strategy.

You guys should use your widow's mite to cast yourselves out of the spell you are in and join us because We are already on that path,anyone that is making you guys not to see anything good in your government is decieving you.Rome wasnt built in a day.

At Jonathans pace, Rome would never have been built. Little things he could do to reassure citizens that his head is correct, he fails to do. Saying how much did Nwobodo steal, that he was jailed? I mean seriously! Or his comments about not knowing where the Chibok girls are, failure to deal with the insurgency... Sorry but I'm embarrassed by the current president, and will celebrate his election defeat. No Nigerian president has ever brought our reputation so low. Last election, almost half of those that voted for him were in the north. Their reward has been abuse by Ijaw elements and irresponsible inaction concerning boko haram, while he flits from church to church like some desolate miracle seeker. Thankfully Buhari is nothing like him.

The impact of youwin is too limited, and the process is still challenging for him to be able to make political capital out of it. I know it has been mentioned in the campaign, but awareness and access to the program make it awkward to explain briefly.
Still the APC appreciates the fact that the pdp seems to have focused on all the wrong things, while we were telling people how life would be better with quality leadership.

This is very sobering. These men have died in service of their country and I believe they must be given appropriate burials where possible, to honour their sacrifice. This is why I get so angry when people dismiss the complaints of soldiers concerning munitions and health facilities. We are almost at war, and the government must respond appropriately by ensuring all required tools are available to crush this insurgency.

[b]Only a brilliant man, with the spirit of a preacher and the humble heart of a kindly family doctor can lead us now. We are afraid, out of ideas, and worst of all out of hope. Jonathan is the cure. And we Nigerian’s have it in us to rise to the occasion. We will. We’re in one of the most frightening periods of Nigerian history. Our country has rarely faced more uncertainty. This is the time for greatness. We have a great leader. We must be a great people backing him, fighting for him, sacrificing for a cause greater than ourselves. #GEJ4NAIJA

I wonder why the APC would not sponsor their own documentary on how this present administration succeeded in ruining this country. at least theirs will be issue based. coming to mind among others are: the pension scam, subsidy scam,Ribadu report neglect, bullet proof car saga, chartered flight, 15m jet money laundry, fake kerosine subsidy, immigration rubbery, missing monies: $20b (NNPC), N500b(sure p) etc, less than 30% capital budget (despite the oil boom), less than 50% budget performance (despite the oil boom), unprecedented recklessness and wastages in the system--fleet of presidential jets, Aso rock knife & fork, Aso zoo, machinery, gen etc. pardon/dropping of charges of known criminals and subsequent award to undeserving individuals, depletion of the excess crude account, external reserve, un-presidential statement like stealing is no corruption, etc

The APC is talking about relevant things to Nigerians, leaving the theatrics to the pdp. Of course the last paragraph of this advert is a warning to pdp goons that if they wish to get dirty, the well known addictions of the first couple will be fair game. I can imagine Lai is just irritated,but the pdp cannot and should not set the agenda for the APC campaign. Instead they are chasing after us, now that the illegal campaign by TAN well in violation of electoral law, has made the pdp campaign stale as month-old gala. The APC has run the better campaign and has tried to talk sensibly to Nigerians. The pdp is yet again relying on religious and ethnic sentiment, but the man who had no shoes has been exposed.

Jonathan has achieved less than obasanjo with probably twice the resources available. Sorry but your argument defies logic and facts. Even the pdp could have easily produced a better candidate than Jonathan but they thought the power of the presidency would intimidate the people into meek submission. Big mistake. Please keep following these old irrelevant politicians in afenifere. They have nothing to offer and soon their visionlessness will be exposed. FeBuhari 14th....

The Change we hear here in NORTH Katsina, Kano, Kaduna, etc. is :
Change the Christian leader to Muslim leader.... lol
you are there saying change without knowing the type of change APC is talking about lol.
To eradicate in all forms and ramification of all non-Muslim religion in member nation with Christianity highly emphasized and Nigeria is a member nation. 2) To ensure only Muslims are elected in all political positions of member nations. 3) To make sure that they strategize and carry out their plan

NOTE
The APC has been consistent in saying that PDP has ruled Nigeria for 16 disastrous years in which corruption, impunity, insurgency, armed robbery and several ills of society held sway.

But watch out some of the APC chieftains saying this now their positions within the "16 disastrous years":

1. Rotimi Amaechi – 8 years speaker under PDP, and 7 years Governor under PDP = 15 years in PDP.

2. Atiku Abubakar – 8 years Vice president under PDP.

3. George Akume – 8 years Governor under PDP.

4. Bukola Saraki – 8 years Governor, and 2 years, Senator under PDP = 10 years.

5. Timipre Sylver – 4 years Governor under PDP.

6. Audu Ogbe – 2 years Chairmanship of the PDP.

7. Aminu Masari – 4 years as the Speaker, House of Representatives under PDP.

8. Chris Ngige – 3 years Governor under PDP.

9. Rabiu Kwankwaso – 7 years Governor under PDP, and 3 years Defense minister under PDP= 10 years.

10. El Rufai – 4 years FCT Minister under PDP, and 2 years BPE chairman under PDP = 6 years.

11. And to cap it all, Obasanjo is the navigator of the APC, a man who spent 8 of the disastrous 16 years as the maximum ruler of Nigeria.
AND MANY MORE.......
It is now clearer that APC is a waste basket of the PDP Corrupt criminals , where the people who created and perpetuated the 16 disastrous years and now dumped. So where is the change coming from?
Are they now saints overnight because they joined APC?
how will malam buhari fight corruption with all ex military heads of state backing him?

Please be WISE and VOTE against the ASSOCIATION OF PAST CRIMINALS (APC )

NOTE DIS


Special Assistant to the Governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, quoted Governor Fayose as saying at a campaign rally in Omuo Ekiti, Ekiti East Local Government that “Buhari is a car with a damaged engine but being packaged by Tinubu and his cabal whose only interest is the wealth of Nigeria.”He said; “In all the campaign rallies held by the APC, Buhari never spoke for more than six minutes.

“Buhari will just utter some words that he had rehearsed and any attempt to bring in new words always result to confusion in his brain due to senility. That was the reason he called his running mate Osunbade instead of Osinbajo and also referred to Imo State as Ibo State.“This is clear evidence of ill-health, old age and senility. Those packaging Buhari to achieve their personal ambition of gaining unhindered access to the wealth of Nigeria should fear God and allow this old man to take care of his health,” the governor said.Speaking further, Fayose, who insisted that “Buhari is old and sick said; “they had programmed Buhari to travel to the U.S on 26th of this month, but they opted out when the secret trip was reported in the media

http://hibe-online.com/allow-buhari-to-seek-medical-help-abroad-fayose-to-apc/

And what has Sambo been saying too. That Buhari is following someone who has 5000 churches and he might betray Islam. You can't have it both ways. The pdp is wretched to try this with Nigerians and it will fail. I don't care about anyone's religion especially when they do not follow it honestly either. As for your other rhetoric, oh please, isn't it all a little stale by now? If only people were not so disgusted by the pdp candidate and his wife?

you need to get tired of your self and your selfishness who has chosen to support and vote into power a retired soldier in his later years in life whose only qualifications is that he truncated a democratic government and forced himself into position of the head of state.
A man who broke army protocols by entering the military with forged certificates and committed perjury by taking oaths and affidavits with same forged incomplete certificate which in saner countries should have earned him years behind the bar.

How can the world suddenly be fooled that a man who became a general with forged and incomplete documents can fight the same corrupt , document forging system that produced him and enabled him to rise to prominence.

Try harder next time. Your cheap propaganda does not compare to the honesty in this guardian story. Can you imagine that both her and her father see the need to sack Jonathan and replace him with Buhari because they agree that our current national direction is not useful to say the least. Jonathan has failed to even dominate the discussion in this election campaign. Jonathan is always the too little, too late man, and we are ready to say goodbye to him.

You just made a blunder as regards the SWF being illegal. It was actually the ECA under Obasanjo that was illegal as it had no legal back up or regulatory frame work. SWF actually has a legal back up and regullatory frame work,as it went through several readings and debate at the senate and house of reps,before it was passed into law. As a matter of fact,it was the problem arising from saving in the ECA,that led to the creation of the SWF,which after being passed into law,replaced the ECA. As at today,the ECA doesn't exist because it is constitutionally illegal. It has been replaced with SWF which has the backing of the constitution. This is one of the reasons why I always advice and admonish people to learn properly on certain topics so that they don't end up ignorantly passing the wrong information to others who might look up to them for certain things.

Same response applies.

Once again, Soludo expands the debate, challenging Iweala.
"I hereby challenge your attempt to blame others for not saving for the rainy day. It is not a virtue when you are quick to appropriate all the credit when things are going well, but shift the blame when they go wrong. You blame the state governors— who, according to you, have taken the Federal Government to the Supreme Court—not that a Supreme Court judgment forced your hands. For your information, the governors have never agreed to savings and always threatened court action even under Obasanjo. Why did we save under Obasanjo but not under Jonathan? Two keywords explain it: leadership and integrity. Governor Amaechi said the governors insisted on sharing the funds because they found out that you were illegally fiddling with the savings. So, as Nigerians still wonder, if billions of dollars are now ‘missing’ under your nose, why should governors trust you to keep their money? Do the states that have taken the federal government to the Supreme Court and refused to save also include the PDP governors—who are in the majority? If so, then it is fatal: even governors of your own party, PDP, do not trust you to keep their money! Furthermore, did the governors also stop the Federal Government from saving part of its share?

You are not making sense. Are the delta militants fostering unity by threatening the rest of the nation if their man loses? Is it apc that lead people to their deaths in stadiums when the customs service was selling forms and outfits for potential recruits? Is the minister responsible, still not a member of Jonathans cabinet? The government of Jonathan has created the harsh circumstances we are in by spending freely on nothing and heavy borrowing when oil prices were high. Now the oil market is down, and the naira has followed it. You need to get a grip on how you understand things.

Malloy volunteers take to the phones Monday
http://wtnh.com/2014/11/03/malloy-volunteers-take-to-the-phones-monday/

By Mark Davis - News 8 Chief Political Correspondent Published: November 3, 2014, 4:06 pm Updated: November 3, 2014,

Hartford, Conn. (WTNH) — The Malloy campaign claims to have approximately 10,000 volunteers in headquarter/boiler rooms all around the state, and his campaign workers were bolstered today by the results of the final Quinnpiac Poll.

“We were pretty far back and we’re making progress and I truly believe that all’s we have to do is get our voters to vote tomorrow and we’re okay,” said Gov. Malloy at a Democratic headquarters in West Hartford.

The final Quinnipiac Poll shows Malloy with a three point lead over Republican Tom Foley and is the third public poll in the past few days showing him with a slight lead in the race, but still within the margin of error.

“We still have seven percent that are undecided, that could, if they vote, go into the voting booth tomorrow and make up their minds; and given that it’s only a three point margin anything can happen,” said Quinnpiac Poll director Doug Schwartz.

That’s why the phone banks are so important, and the Malloy campaign says they’ve made over a half a million person-to-person human being phone calls to Democrat leaning voters over the past two days.

“I’m not confident at all, we have a job to do. Listen; we’ve done a great job to be in this situation that we’re in where we can win this election if we get our voters to the polls,” said the Governor.
