Only goats will seek that from an ugly piece of crap like you!

chai!!! u r rili pained oh. I sense frustration

.

There must be something wrong in the heads of Jonathan's handlers

must a post insult the person of Buhari b4 it is granted fp status?
Is it not the President dat appealed to everyone to focus on issues based campaign?
isn't it an aberration dat after 16yrs of being in power, instead of PDP to list their achievements and their plans their campaign strategy is to degrade Buhari. They keep talking abt certificate as if that is what Nigerians need. U do not need a certificate to be a good leader. Our VP proves this assertion correct. This man is as dumb as f***.
I am tired of PDP. Everyone is tired of being in Nigeria because of PDP. Wouldn't it be sensible to try another party?

I thought I was d only one that noticed it. NTA is a joke and useless just like our prez

This is the reason i love apc. The caliber of people they have.

Its obvious. Lasgidi has mad love for d General

lol. sign of desperation
even if d pope endorses d PDP, it will not stop us from repaying dem for wastin 16yrs and our resources by kicking them out

Must a post insult d person of Buhari before it is granted FP status?

it's as if APC bribed President Obama for him to say sometin like dis- PDP apologists
mods no be only Buhari certificate suppose reach front page

President Obama was recently interviewed by
YouTube stars, Bethany Mota, GloZell Green & Hank
Green and one of the questions he was asked was
about the missing Chibok girls and efforts by the US
government to rescue them. What he said below...
"As people may or may not know, Boko haram is a
radical, violent, terrible extremist organisation
in Nigeria. It kidnapped 200 young women and
there are in many cases still being held. What
we tried to do is to help the Nigerian government
deal with the problem. The Nigerian government
has not been effective as it needs to be in not
only finding the girls but also stopping these
extremist organization from operating in their
territory. What we have tried to do is to
mobilize other countries to try to give the
Nigerian government more resources, not just
military equipment but also better intelligence. A
lot of them to track where these folks are and
try to stop them" he said

The Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, has said
the Peoples Democratic Party has exhausted its bags
of lies in its attempt to discredit the presidential
candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj.
General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), over his academic
qualification.
The Government College, Katsina (formerly
Provincial Secondary School) had on Wednesday
released the WASCE result of Buhari, shortly after
he had formerly requested the school to make the
documents available to dispel the controversy
surrounding his qualification.
Oshiomhole said the capability of Buhari was not in
doubt, adding that he would secure the votes of
Nigerians even if he tendered his electricity bill.
The governor, who spoke during an inspection of road
projects, which culminated in a campaign at the Egor
market in Upper Siluko area of the state capital,
added that Nigerians were tired of the current
situation in the country, accusing the Federal
Government of failing to provide Nigerians with the
basic infrastructure.
Oshiomhole said, “I’m happy that you people are
following what is happening. One young man said
even if Buhari doesn’t have a school certificate.
Another said the other man has a doctorate in
Zoology, but we can’t even get fish on our table.
“The truth is that everybody is tired. Today in this
market, I’m sure you don’t have light. We have
provided the electric poles and the transformer but
they will not give us light.
“So, the only solution is after 16 years of PDP, they
have exhausted their lies. We have to bring General
Buhari because we want a leader with courage. When
he says I will do, he will do it; not a leader that
will promise during campaigns but will disappear
after the campaigns.”
The governor also accused the Federal Government
of enriching a few individuals.
“They are telling us they are going to bring a lot
of money to buy our votes. When they bring the
money, collect it; it’s the money they stole from
you, but we will not vote for them,” he added.

Article written by Dr. Peregrino Brimah of Ends.ng
That there is a vacuum in Nigeria’s leadership
is not in dispute; however the recent declaration
by the president of Chad, Idriss Deby
compounds Nigeria’s delicate situation and
threatens the nation’s sovereign integrity. As
reported by the AFP in an article of January 17,
2015, captioned “Thousands see off Chadian
troops to fight Boko Haram,” Idriss Deby the
authoritarian leader of Chad, Nigeria’s north
eastern neighbor, said “in a speech read by the
speaker of parliament that the new deployment
(of Chadian troops to Cameroon) aimed to
recapture Baga.” Cameroon had requested for
and welcomed the deployment that saw 400
Chadian military vehicles arrive in Cameroon.
[AFP] However Nigeria was not invited to the
table.
Nigeria’s military leadership as quoted by the AFP
are “lukewarm.” The word is defined by Google
dictionary thus: “(of a person, attitude, or action)
unenthusiastic.” Nigeria’s military spokesperson,
GEN Olukolade said as quoted by the AFP: “All
support for our operations will be welcome, but it
must conform with our own ongoing operations.”
In as much as Baga at the border with Chad and
another 14 to 20 local governments in Nigeria by
all means needs various degrees of military
liberation from Boko Haram’s control, a Chadian
intervention without approval by the African union
or explicit approval by Nigeria’s government, even
though lacking and inebriated infringes on the laws
of national sovereignty; and prompts further
suspicion of the intentions of Nigeria’s neighbors
who have reportedly been permissive and in some
cases frankly supportive of Boko Haram [See CNN].
The Chadian government and the government of
Niger pulled out their troops from the multi-
national force stationed at Nigeria’s northeastern
border late last year leading up to and enabling the
Boko Haram massacre that resulted in 2500 to
3000 dead.
The stationing of troops by Nigeria, Cameroon,
Chad and Niger by November 1 of 2014 was
agreed upon by the four nations at the Paris
summit in May of last year. Acknowledging a
vacancy of leadership in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital of
government; the new do-it-our-way, without
Nigeria’s or any other openly known regional or
global union’s explicit authorization challenges
years-long developed modalities of territorial
interrelation. Boko Haram terrorists are known to
organize, train and source weapons from Chad,
Niger and Cameroon. Nigeria has over the past
years demanded these nations seal their borders
and disallow terrorist’s assemblies on their soil.
The McCain approach of total disregard to “some
guy called Goodluck Jonathan,” disregards
Nigerians as a whole and compounds an already
highly suspicious situation and pits Nigerians to
choose between Boko Haram (mostly) foreign
terrorists’ invasion and foreign leaderships’
invasion. Nigerians in the affected territories swear
that Chad president, Idriss Deby is a sponsor and
financier of Boko Haram. A majority of Boko Haram
insurgents are Chadians [SaharaReporters, Jan 14,
2015]. There is undeniably a serious problem here.
In the course of Nigeria’s French neighbors
partnering and protecting their interests, this
cannot be done with permission of terror to Nigeria
and at any risk to Nigeria’s territorial integrity.
[See: “Serious Allegations of Cameroon, Chad
Arming Boko Haram Is Act of Terror And War;”
ENDS.ng Oct 14, 2014]
In October last year, Nigeria’s president and the
president of Chad jointly declared a very
suspicious cessation of fire against Boko Haram
[Which ENDS promptly rejected on behalf of
Nigerians]. This leadership ‘blunder’ which world
unions and lead groups were slow to recognize led
to the strengthening of Boko Haram and the deaths
of thousands more innocent Nigerians and
Cameroonians. The world cannot continue to sit
and watch these deadly conspiracies and
administrative ‘errors.’
John Dramani Mahama, of Ghana, head of the
regional Economic Community of West African
States, ECOWAS on Friday called for an African
action against the Boko Haram regional threat.
Absent a change of Nigeria’s incapacitated
government, this is the right action, long overdue.
On behalf of the people of Nigeria, we demand
Nigeria, Chad and Cameroon sit down and
negotiate the full modalities of any incursion by
Chad and/or Cameroonian forces into Nigeria’s
territory, and that the urgent agreements reached
as sanctioned exigently by the African union.

just imagine. After spending 6yrs, being massively voted for in d previous election,yet cant mention a single project. It is a big shame on the path of d president and d stupid supporters who came out to support the inept president. Am so disappointed dey didn't stone him. If he didn't do anything when he knew he had something to lose(that is his reelection), Is it now that he has nothing to lose he will now start working?

The All Progressives Congress has raised the alarm over the safety of its National Chairman, Chief John Oyegun, and his family after his residence in Abuja was raided in the early hours of Monday by armed invaders.
In a statement in Lagos on Monday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said while hoping that a police investigation would unravel what happened, it was either those who attacked the residence at 1.30 am were robbers or assassins.
It said while Odigie-Oyegun was away attending a previously unscheduled meeting in Abuja when the invaders struck, his wife who was at home, was left deeply traumatised by the raid

”The facts of the raid as available so far point to a sinister motive. For example, only Chief Oyegun’s room was ransacked in the whole house. Common sense dictates that if the invaders were robbers, they would have ransacked the whole house in search of money and other valuables which they might have believed were in the residence
”The invaders, two burly men, removed the window burglar bars to gain access to the residence from the back, and then made straight for the bedroom of our National Chairman. Police security was in place at the residence when the incident happened,” APC said.
The party said while it did not know who was behind the raid, it was worth noting that the angry rhetoric and vitriolic personality attacks that had been directed at the opposition by the top leadership of the ruling PDP and their spokesmen had heightened tension and put the lives of opposition politicians at risk, ahead of the forthcoming elections.
It expressed gratitude to God for saving the lives of the APC National Chairman and his wife, wondering what would have happened if the Chairman had been at home at the time of the raid.

we must crush dem

jona's biggest achievement in d east is d addition of 'international' to Akanu Ibiam airport. And d appointment of some people dat have helped him plunder our resources. Is it not shameful dat someone who u supported totally is still coming back to promise u d same thing after 4yrs?
Jonathan knew dat giving d Igbos d 2nd naiger bridge would guarantee him unwavering support yet he refused to do it when he knew he had something to lose. Is it now if he is reelected when he will have nothing to lose dat he will fulfil his promise?
And with d antecedent of naija politicians, we know dat CIA 2nd term is always worse dan dia first

A motion for Jonathan’s endorsement
as the Igbo candidate in the 2015
presidential election was scuttled at the
Ime-Obi (leadership caucus) meeting of
Ohanaeze Ndigbo on January 3. As one
of those who kicked against the motion,
why do you think Jonathan should not
be endorsed?
Actually, it was on the 9th of November 2014 that
they first mooted the idea to endorse President
Jonathan. In that Ime-Obi, which is like a caucus
meeting of the Ohanaeze, we said Ohanaeze was like
a polygamous father with many children and many
wives. A polygamous father has to consult more than
a father that is married to only one wife. Ohanaeze
is a father that is running many households: we have
the Peoples Democratic Party, we have the All
Progressives Congress, we have the United Progressive
Party that even has an Igbo as the presidential
candidate in Chief Chekwas Okorie; we have other
political parties that also have Igbo people. We said
it didn’t make any political sense, strategically, to
endorse President Jonathan.
We had to insist on a counter motion. In the
shouting match that ensued, Chief Emmanuel
Iwuanyanwu’s motion could not be passed and it
wasn’t even seconded. It will be stupid for the Igbo
nation to endorse President Jonathan because as it
stands today, nobody knows who will win. It is not
like in 2011 when General Muhammadu Buhari was
running with the Congress for Progressive Change
which did not have much spread nationwide. Today,
the APC now has broad movement and followership
in all the nooks and crannies of the country, just
like the PDP. So we said it didn’t make sense to
support one party.
Is this why you want Ohanaeze to
withdraw its support for Jonathan?
Again, there is the checklist of expectations by the
Igbo, which President Jonathan, in the course of the
campaign before the 2011 general elections, agreed to
fulfill. We talked of revamping the Enugu coal, but
six years down the line President Jonathan has not
done so. They even promised the Enugu coal will be
used for a coal-fired power plant to supply at least
1000 mega watts of electricity. That had not been
done. We had expected that six years after
Jonathan became President the power plant would
have started; it could have helped the Igbo and other
Nigerians. Even the international airport he claimed
to have built cannot actually be called an
international airport because the British Airways,
Lufthansa, can’t come there. If there is a hub driven
by coal, with the ancillary industries that will
follow the production of coal, it will energise the
place. He failed.
We talk of the second Niger Bridge. That is because
President Jonathan, in February 2013, after visiting
Imo State where he had received politicians who
defected to the PDP, hopped into Onitsha to see the
Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Alfred Achebe. Luckily for the
Igbo people, the Obi went through his diary and
remembered that Jonathan promised the Second Niger
Bridge and queried him there. President Jonathan
was on the defensive. We said, with all the
unprecedented oil money, why did it not occur to the
president to remember the second Niger Bridge
earlier?
But some have commended Jonathan
for favouring the South-East with
political appointments.
Yes, he gave us secretary to the government of the
federation; he gave us minister of finance, and
other ministers but we are saying those ones are
supposed to be constitutional matters —the
constitution says if you become the president, you
must appoint at least one minister from every state
of the federation. The issue of doing us a favour
does not arise and the fact that we have our son,
Dr. Pius Anyim, as the SGF, and Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-
Iweala as the minister of finance does not confer
any advantage on us. We are not saying that the
individual families have not been improved but we
are not talking about families, we are talking about
the generality of the Igbo race. We do not see any
benefit from the Jonathan regime to warrant
endorsement, and we felt it could be suicidal, given
the fact that General Muhammadu Buhari and the
APC were lurking in the wings, nobody could weigh
who would win the presidential election. Why should
we endorse one and leave the other? That was how
we shut down the motion.
But an Ohanaeze chief has boasted that
Ohanaeze will eventually endorse
Jonathan.
Unless they do so by sitting in their houses and
issuing a press statement. Ohanaeze’s constitution is
very clear —even if the Ime-Obi had endorsed him,
going by the constitution of Ohanaeze, it requires
the ratification of the General Assembly that
includes every Igbo person. It will require the
General Assembly for endorsement.
What plans does Buhari have for the
Igbos, has he reached out to Ohanaeze
Ndigbo?
On the 7th of November, Buhari wrote to the
Ohanaeze, saying he would like to have a discussion
with us because he was consulting various groups and
he felt the Ohanaeze was very important for him to
consult. In the last paragraph of the letter, he said
he would not claim to know everything that was of
importance to the Igbo, that after the discussion, he
would know what to say. Before the elections, he
will have time to discuss with Ohanaeze.

Nigerians shud realise data vote for PDP is a vote to maintain d status quo. Nothing will change with d PDP in power. d complaints, insults and violence will not stop. any vote for PDP means we are happy with what u have done for 16years and we want u to continue. Nigerians is dat what u want?
d mod dat moved d first wrong info to d FP should also move dis. d populace must not be misinformed.

lol @op
so buying 3 abandoned locomotive trains in d 21st century is innovative and an achievement for someone who has overseen d richest period in our 54yr history ?

http://www.punchng.com/politics/we-didnt-adopt-jonathan-upn/
It seems dat d PDP are getting desperate. When tuey have failed for 16 years and wasted our years of plenty and oil boom,dia only only option is to start seeking endorsement from thieves and rogues.
PDP/Jonathan, Nigerians have rejected u

just saw did crazy comment from a nairalander
If you want to campaign for Buhari, give
Jonathan the microphone

wow op, u just gave more reasons to vote for Buhari

ambrosini593:
No talk wetin u nor no. Even APC will loose Rivers presidential election not to talk of other states in the south south. Do be deceive o. Goodluck will win south south with 98%. Who told you people are scared of Amaechi? Majority of people in the south south don't like gmb at all. Stop giving yourself false hope.

U r obviously ignorant. I'm not gonna say what am not sure of but here in edo state,if jonathan wins up to 20% of votes,I will personally praise him

I didn't rili like dis man. But my hatred for pdp has gradually increased over d years. But after looking at his past records nd achievements, I came to d conclusion dat it can only be buhari and nobody else. The corrupt cabals(ie pdp cabal,generator cabal,subsidy cabal,pension cabal,militants) know what he can do and they will do all dey can to stop him from becoming president. I know APC detractors are saying that he is too old,that a younger candidate is needed but we know dat any oda person we put in dere is going to be consumed by d system. The only person capable of doing it is Buhari
Besides it is time to let politicians especially dat dey do not own Nigeria and we would not condone incompetence.

abiambo:
Change to what? To dictatorship? Hardship ? No freedom of speech , religious bigotry ? Ethnicism? Mismanagement nd incompetence?(ptf missing 25billion)... Thank God both men have bin tested in public service ... Vote wisely

Read what u wrote and ask urself if it makes sense to u. Dictatorship? How? In democracy? Pls explain. I don't understand how dis will be possible
25 billion? Weren't u here during fuel subsidy fraud of over a trillion naira? Or over $10billion (more dan 1.8tn naira? Look at who is talking about ethnicism?have u ever bothered to look at Buhari's cabinet? U r obviously ignorant. Is 16yrs of destruction not enuf for u? R u not tired of complaining? Don't u want to try sometin different and vote dem out after 4 yrs if dey disappoint u? Are u not tired of hearing pdp boasting dat dey will rule Nigeria for more dan 50yrs?
My God,what is wrong with Nigerians?

They will do anytin to ensure they continue to hold on to power by all means. 16 yrs of destruction is enuf. We want change

Yes oh. I spent almost 2yrs as an 100 level student. Dat guy wasted 7 mths of my life

Definitely not continuity of corruption
