After what he has done to Jonathans campaign today, he deserves a hot slap. But the APC thanks him,for showing just how crass the pdp can be, and turning more people against Jonathan. Well done.

u dont get it, gmb is not desperate looking 4 his support and calling him father, but gmb is just there to recognise him as an elder. Ibb knws he with pdp destroyed this country with obj and the only thing to compesate nigeria is to support Change

The same ibb that Jonathan wanted to blame for the Eagle square bombing according to MEND, just to stop him from contesting pdp primaries. Jonathan is the author of his own misfortunes but he should not try to drag Nigeria down with him. Abdulsalam, Obasanjo, IBB... They all see the need for change. Interesting.

And what did Jonathan demonstrate in lagos and enugu? Or with Christiane Amanpour? Abeg. Buhari has more presence and more in his head than Jonathan could even start to imagine to wish for. The Jonathans need to be retired from public view, asap.

This was a comment made by some LRNZH APC Guy, when there was a topic about IBB supporting GEJ, I think it received the most likes:



https://www.nairaland.com/2064106/anybody-means-well-nigeria-support

So are you guys really gonna turn around that fast? Damn!

You kinda miss the plot. We enjoy the spectacle of seeing Jonathan being deserted in droves. IBB has little to contribute to the apc in policy or intellect. Our plans have all been made and the campaign was cruising without him. If he helps to prevent election fraud in Niger state, good. Late as he is, he is welcome to support our candidates but, as you know, he is still in the pdp. So what does that tell you? Everywhere people are seeing and rejecting the poor leadership of Jonathan.

I really don't understand those Nigerians who can't hold a civil discussion with descending into tribal insults. IBB has been in the pdp all these years and the idjiot did not see he was an aboki then, or even pdp chairman Muazu? Just like with, MEND and Obasanjo, Jonathan has shown his incapacity to even manage the pdp, or his SS mob, yet he wants four more years? My pvc is itching to be used. Jonathan must go!

We have to understand that Fayose is a desperate man. With all his illegal action so far, when Buhari becomes president, the ekiti house of assembly will certainly do the needful and start impeachment proceedings. He knows he may become the first and hopefully only governor to be impeached twice. Aside from his mental health issues... I will be shocked if he is still governor by Christmas! Ekiti, I hope you have learned a good lesson.

http://africanspotlight.com/2015/01/19/election-babangida-declares-support-for-buhari/

Former Head of State, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB) has endorsed APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari at his Hilltop mansion in Minna.

General Babangida has thrown his weight behind General Buhari. He says Buhari is the right man to move Nigeria forward.

Buhari visited him on Monday in company of Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, Rotimi Amaechi, Tinubu, Dino Melaye, APC women leaders among others.

Speaking during the visit, IBB said: “I call for peaceful conduct during the elections… Contestants must be magnanimous in victory.”

“Some of us are fading away but he (Buhari) is still going strong. We will support you in this cause,” IBB said.

Details later…

News just coming in. IBB has declared support for Buhari and pledged to support his campaign. Yet another pdp grandee deserting the mess that is the current government.

@ bolded lets not go there with APC receiving tons of PDP members, the same set of people that played a crucial role in PDP. They are responsible for whatever Nigeria turned out to be in the last 16yrs. This same people are powerful stake holders in your party. APC is PDP with a new name.



Guy do you actually read my post and digest my statements before making comments. Where did I say the Amnesty was Jonathan's idea. Moreover kudos would have to be given to Jonathan for continuing with the program and taking it to new heights.



This is a excerpt from my post which you failed to read.

[b] Most Nigerians want results ... They want to see magic happen. They want to hear that our 200 girls are back, that all the captured state in bornu are now under the Military control, the want to shekua head on a tray and Boko haram disbanded . I want the same results too.

The challenge is that they fail to realize that you can't get results out of thin air from an army who for the past 30 years have been left to rot, both in equipment, and in training by successive governments. The quality of our soldiers are no longer what it used to. We have people joining the military not out of patriotism but mainly due to the desire to make ends meet.
This is a quote from Minimah

"“ There is high level of unemployment on the ground, most people want jobs, if that job means joining the Army, fine; it’s a source of employment, but when the reality of military service comes, he drops his rifle and runs away.” (http://www.punchng.com/news/army-getting-new-weapons-to-combat-b-haram/)

Also According to Vanguardngr.com I quote
[/i] From the deep divisions in the fighting ranks of the Nigerian military, it does appear these selfish politicians have reached out to their contacts in the military and convinced many of them not to fight and to sabotage the operations of the Nigerian military. This has led to too many desertions and cowardly actions, which have paved the way for the Boko Haram to make frightful progress to the point of establishing caliphates here and there - See more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/11/boko-haram-curious-calls-presidents-resignation/#sthash.BkUsaPgy.dpuf[/i]

So aside Goodluck working hard to correct an over 30 years rot in the military, and leading an army /citizenry filled with saboteurs and Boko haram sympathizers as he tries to navigating his way around the stiff opposition from the west that is bent on limiting his ability to purchase weapons due to their spurious human rights allegation.



What a very silly conclusion. First the loan is not a cash loan but supply of military hardware to be paid over seven years. This loan do not attract interest.

It is very strategic I am wondering why I forgot to mention it in my piece. Close to 90% of the armies budget goes into recurrent expenditure. With only 10% left for milex any attempt by GEJ to encroach into the 90% would spell doom to the salaries of men of service who put their life on line for Nigeria.

Taking a 1billion loan that did not attract interest and would be paid over 7 years is a very strategic decision.
(http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/168645-jonathan-gets-approval-to-borrow-1billion-to-fight-boko-haram.html )

While some lawmakers applauded the effort of the joint committee and moved for immediate approval of the loan in view of the security challenges, Your party was against it. with Olubunmi Adetumbi (APC-Ekiti), and Sen. George Akume (APC-Benue) called for appropriate procedures to be followed by the senate.

The Senate President, Sen. David Mark, however, doused tension by explaining that the senate was not flouting any legal or constitutional provision as the borrowing was not in cash to attract any further procedure before approval.



Whatever you like call it… The fact is that he visited maidugri.



The mains story here is not GEJ's statement but the fact that an unrepentant part of a criminal organization MEND that has refused the amnesty supports your candidate and you were all gaga, happy and jubilating. My friend this is very suspicious. The public is left to believe that APC has some form of links with the remains the criminal organization MEND. Who say they may not have such link with boko haram too, Given that their leader Shekua and buhari your candidate would like to see Sharia implemented allover Nigeria. I am very suspicious of APC



Goodluck has just gotten the approval of a 1billion dollar loan in form of military hardware. This load is with no interest it will do justice to an army that have been left to rot for the past 30years plus. What was APC response to this development. The fought against a motion that would enable our soldiers get better military hardware.



You are entitled to your opinion … I have responded to those deserving of response on my other thread.

Mr Change what has APC done in contributing to help Nigeria fight terrorism aside criticizing and demonize the effort of the military and men who put their lives on the line for Nigeria.

Nigerians do not want to see magic. They want to see hard honest work. People have been advising Jonathan on boko haram for years.

http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/167367-jonathan-eats-humble-pie-woos-obasanjo-to-help-tackle-boko-haram-insurgency.html
Mr. Obasanjo’s 2011 attempt at negotiations with the deadly sect ended on a bloody note with the murder of Babakura Fugu, the man who received him and made effort to establish a link between Boko Haram and the former president.

The effort was reportedly not at the instance of the federal government, officials said at the time.

Mr. Fugu, a brother-in-law of the slain leader of Boko Haram, Mohammed Yusuf, was shot to death shortly after Mr. Obasanjo’s departure from Maiduguri, Borno State, to seek peace talks with the group.

The attack ended one of the best known efforts at reaching out to the deadly sect, which is responsible for thousands of deaths.

__
http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/obasanjo-jonathan-s-understanding-of-boko-haram-suffers-from-wrong-reading/195105/
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo Wednesday lampooned President Goodluck Jonathan's administration for its poor understanding of the Boko Haram insurgency.

He also called on the president to learn to tolerate opposition in order to sustain the nation's democracy.

Obasanjo’s no holds barred attack came at the launch of the autobiography of former President of the Court of Appeal and pioneer Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), Retired Justice Mustapha Akanbi.

According to Obasanjo, "Boko Haram is not simply a menace based on religion or one directed to frustrated anybody's political ambition. It is essentially a socio-economic problem that is tainted with religion.

"It is a gargantuan danger to the nation and to all Nigerians. President Jonathan's understanding of Boko Haram phenomenon suffered from wrong reading and wrong imputation. That is what led us to where we are today," he said.

Obasanjo blamed Jonathan for the dilly-dallying approach the administration has adopted in tackling the Boko Haram insurgency.

_
If that is what a pdp board of trustees member has to say about the President's attitude, will he listen to the opposition? Jonathan has been happy to paint the boko haram issue as a plot by Northern interests against his presidency, forgetting that he would soon come begging for their votes. He has not denounced the many insults hurled in that direction by his Ijaw friends and has sought to divide the nation using tribe and church. Has the pfn ever been held in as low esteem as under Oritsejafor? A President who boasts that one-third of private jets in the country are owned by Anambra people, does that show he had any idea of the reality of people's lives? Now we have cut the price of fuel by ten naira when the oil price has fallen at least 100%. Does that make sense or will people not see another ploy at cheap populism just like the maiduguri visit? He is a man who always manages to do too little too late.
The APC presents a team of substance, a vice president who can contribute to the discussion, and a President in Buhari who can cut through the military bs we are being fed and bring some sanity back to governance. Fashola and Fayemi, Amaechi, elRufai, Tambuwal... will be significant in this government, and we have already seen some of what they can do. Jonathan is simply not the man to lead this nation in any positive direction, and the public at large knows it well.

Re Iraq, I mentioned 9/11 because following that event the USA had a need to respond, even if against the wrong target. Obama voted against authorising the Iraq war and was rewarded by a population many of whom realised they had been duped into a war.

http://foreignpolicy.com/2012/03/20/top-10-lessons-of-the-iraq-war-2/

I don't understand the foundation Jonathan is laying, because if soldiers at the war front are complaining about the lack of bullets, medical facilities, surveillance information etc, how can they succeed? Has there been an enquiry into the reason why a national army is struggling to defeat this band of incoherent heretics? Re the billion dollar loan, I ask again has the insurgency not been going on since 2010, so why has military spending not been suitably directed to equipment purchase in all this time? Will this $1bn win the war or is the government just trying to look like it is doing something? There are stories that missing soldiers do not get paid, and with their families mostly in barracks, can you understand why morale is low? There are really too many issues concerning the prosecution of this war that just beggar belief. A presidential spokesman, Okupe, has the nerve to say boko haram 'only' occupies 20,000 square miles of our territory! The insanity must end.

The APC does not exist to cheer on a hapless government. It exists to provide an alternative. Buhari and Tinubu have not been associated with this federal government and while many may decamp back and forth, the major allies in the APC, the ACN and CPC, have been anti-establishment to the core. Instead of the government using the security services to gives citizens protection, we have seen how they have been used for election purposes in Ekiti and Osun. No such effort was mounted to look for our Chibok girls, or any of the thousands who have also been kidnapped. Not one from Chibok has been freed by the armys effort. What reason has Jonathan given us to cheer? Even to communicate effectively, he struggles and fails. The last 6 years have clearly shown he has no capacity for the job.
