If you care to listen to the President's explanation, you will notice that he was quoting from a Judge of the Appeal Court. But people do not care about what he was explaining because they have no idea of what the position of Law is. We can agree that a thief is corrupt but a corrupt person is not necessarily a thief. Giving bribe is corruption but giving a bribe is not stealing of course depending on the context. Got that?

thegoodjoehunt3:
GEJ was not a judge interpreting the constitution. Secondly, the constitution can never say theft is not a corrupt act. Theft is dishonest and used for undeserved personal gain.

GEJ did not know Stealing is a corrupt act. There is no way it can be bittered. Stealing is a corrupt act.

How can GRJ fight corruption when he can not even identify it?

Sir, I have pointed you to the British and Nigeria Law. That goes beyond you and me sir.

"

(1)A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it; and “thief” and “steal” shall be construed accordingly.

(2)It is immaterial whether the appropriation is made with a view to gain, or is made for the thief’s own benefit. - Theft Act 1968 - UK Law.(1)

Here is an extract from Nigeria Constitution. You will agree that part or any part of the constitution was not written by President Jonathan as it clearly defines theft/stealing.

Its therefore very pathetic if some so called lawyers do not know the basic definition of theft/stealing. I wonder how they pass their Law School Exam; I can always guess its simply by corruption probably?"

thegoodjoehunt3:
There is no way the law of the court can bend stealing or theft and say it is not a corrupt act.

Me and you can say anything we want on NL but its the court that decides and in deciding, the Judge will go by the Constitution or an Act. I guess that is what some of us do not know. Sorry about that sir.

thegoodjoehunt3:

corrupt
If someone or something is corrupt, they’re broken morally or in some other way. Corrupt people perform immoral or illegal acts for personal gain, without apology. Corrupt politicians take bribes and deny it.
http://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/corrupt

Sorry your dictionary meaning will not stand in a court of law sir so unfortunately we have to go by what the constitution or an Act says not what you got from google or any dictionary. So your dictionary quotation will not even be considered as a secondary source if you write a law exam not to talk of when you stand in a Court.

thegoodjoehunt3:

Corrupt definition, guilty of dishonest practices
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/corrupt

There is no need complicating a simple answer.

To note if an act is corrupt, check whether the act is honest or this honest.

Is bribe an honest practice? No it isn't. So it is corrupt.

Is theft an honest practice? No it isn't. So it is corrupt.

Is Stealing and honest practice? No it isn't. It is corrupt.

Sir it seems you do not understand the difference between corruption and stealing hence both are the same to you right? ( but I excuse your not knowing). Ok it you take or give a bribe, are you corrupt or you are a thief? Please check the meaning of a thief and that will help you in knowing the difference. Taking or giving a bribe is not the same as taking property beloging to another with the intent to appropriate. Please see below:

(1)A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it; and “thief” and “steal” shall be construed accordingly.

(2)It is immaterial whether the appropriation is made with a view to gain, or is made for the thief’s own benefit. - Theft Act 1968 - UK Law.(1)

keep your dirty mouth shut... Ok your beef with the president-in-waiting seems to be personal. I can understand how you feel. Its always personal with people who support evil, bad and corruption.

Buhari is only human and I maintain that all his ills are just him being human, you need not be afraid of him. The only thing he is passionate about is fighting corruption and he has said it time without number that the problem of Nigeria is not best ideas or getting the right people for the job, the problem of Nigeria has always been corruption, put that aside and Nigeria will develop better than it is.

Jonathan does not know this, he says his people are not corrupt just that they are thieves. And he is ok with that, its just that some of us dont agree. So dont pour you anger on the People's General. He is on on his way to fix things.

Its either premiumtimes is quoting vanguard or vice versa but in any case it is evident that premiumtimesng.com/vanguard is lieing. If APC/Buhari truthfully partake in a meeting with Blair as suggested, by now the pictures they are circulating about will not be the one that was shot over a year ago if that makes any sense. So its still LIES, LIES and LIES.

Anyway its my pleasure to be part of our discussions. There are many things we cannot agree on and that is the beauty of democracy. No hard feelings towards anyone and please dont hate me because I will be voting for JONATHAN and vice versa. For me, APC are bunch of LIERS. I wish everyone of us a blessed day ahead. Am bowing out now to work and business. Probaby will be back in a few hours time depending on my time. May you all have a blessed and fruitful day in JESUS NAME.

Please also say AMEN to this. May your enemies treat you not anyone else in your life the way Buhari treated the 3 that he executed for drugs when the offence committed was before the law. Also say Amen that your life will be treated the way Buhari treated the first woman that was executed in cold blood. Also say AMEN that your life will be treated the way Buhari is now dining and wining with the people that ruined Nigeria for all these years. I can hear you say AMEN so that in Jesus name.

And by the way let me remind you that if you are talking about God, He is just and merciful. I will not claim to be perfect when am not in the presence of the almighty and omnipotent God, the father of our Lord JESUS CHRIST.

shiningshina:


Yeah, you surely have a right to vote for any candidate of your choice. BUT, then, I have a simple prayer for you. May God run your entire life the exact same way GEJ has run Nigeria for six years. May God make your entire life what GEJ has made Nigeria in his six years of rule. Say AMEN if you are honest to yourself.

Sir to cover up, you omitted the remaing part of my writing but here it is - "Buhari will not probably speak for more than 10 minutes or so put together and APC and his supporters are propagating it as if he will give a lecture for 1 hour or more. APC LIERS" Buhari is simply participating in a discussion.

bakila:


Bros, you don reveal yourself. If you be participant at a discussion you no go speak? You know see microphone for him name for that your link. Haba Londoner no do like that nah Sir.

Thanks for your enlightment. But unfortunately I will be too busy to spend my time simply to see Buhari participate in a discussion where he will probably not speak for more than 10 minutes or so. About situation in Nigeria, sir am bold to say I understand your sentiment. I have mentioned before that I spend a sizebale part of my time in Nigeria so am not alien to the situation on the ground.

bakila:

Cast your vote and that is why all the other parties will get a vote. The subtle attempt at saying Buhari lied by you has attempted to derail this thread. Go to Chatham house find faults and post here, again I repeat, because you are abroad you might not get the full picture of what is happening. The primordial and parochial sentiments being wiped up by GEJ will have little effects on the outcome of the elections.

For now Goodluck is the one who has the mandate of Nigerians and should justify an extension not by the words in his name, unfortunately for him, his justification is in the past while he is pointing to the future for it.

I do not know how much you know about evidence but we live that for another day. Thanks for your kind "pity". It shows am human afterall. But its my prerogative to choose Jonathan to Buhari the Coupist who is sorrounded and sponsored by the likes of Atiku, Tinubu, Amaechi and the rest of the evil people that ruined Nigeria when they were in PDP and have suddenly become "BORN AGAIN" and agent of change(?)because they crossed to APC. The evil that I know is better than the "angels of darkness (APC)" that am hearing about.

shiningshina:


Thanks for confessing to your LIES. Here, you have admitted that NO official APC outlet released those pictures. That reveals you as a LIAR, because you had early claimed that it was APC which released the pictures in issue.

As for your other bleats, well, they reflect how GEJ's cluelessness has already infected you too. It's a big pity.

Any by the way, Buhari is not going to be a SPEAKER but rather a participant in a discussion -

"Overview

The postponement of Nigeria’s fifth election since its return to civilian rule in 1999, together with fierce political competition, a security crisis and severe economic challenges linked to the drop in oil price, have thrown into sharp relief the challenges of conducting this essential process in such a complex environment. While there is widespread speculation as to the reasons for the delay, there is also widespread acknowledgment of the necessity that national elections do now take place as scheduled on 28 March.

General Muhammadu Buhari, former military ruler (1983-85) and now opposition presidential candidate, will discuss the importance of democracy for Africa’s future, and in particular why delivering dividends of elected government matter both to Nigeria and internationally.
- See more at: http://www.chathamhouse.org/event/prospects-democratic-consolidation-africa-nigerias-transition#sthash.TSZ9OtBp.dpuf"

Buhari will not probably speak for more than 10 minutes or so put together and APC and his supporters are propagating it as if he will give a lecture for 1 hour or more. APC LIERS

How my friend? By speaking at Chatham house taking over a week to arrange a hurried one hour participation at an event? So that looks presidential to you? hmmm. Ok o.

Kbworld:
I hope some SataNoid won't hang themselves, GMB is being treated like a president already. sai baban Zahra

I have never and will never wish Buhari ill health. He is human and so his health is not in his hand so to say. So please get that straight in your mind that am not one of those wishing him dead. That is against what I stand for. However, Buhari and APC is as corrupt as the PDPs. Actually APC is worse. Check BUhari's and APC handlers and sponsors and tell us a single one of them that have a CLEAN SLATE. I am not asking for two just name one who got his or her wealth with a clean labour of theirs.

ayindejimmy:

Now that you had to call me out.
Lemme repeat myself clearly. Buhari is not answerable to any pdp fans.
1, All you guys trying to do is pull him down. So why should he be bothered by your hypocritically laced ranting.
2, He needs to direct his time and energy to those that have faith in him. Those that wish him well. That's where he gets the energy to live through to inimical plans of pdp and rigorous processes of campaigns.
If and when he's elected... Then everyone can have him. Cos he's now Nigeria's property.
4, All he needs now is constructive criticism. And it doesn't seem like pdp have that in mind whenever they open their mouth
5, Buhari will give only people that focus on issues based criticism audience not those only interested in propagandas and gossips about his family.
6,No apc member questioned Gej when he travelled to Germany for medical checkup. So Buhari is not expecting to entertain any interrogation from people with sinister inclinations.
Those of us that have faith in Buhari knows he's in good condition of health. But for those that choose to believe otherwise... Buhari can't help you with the otherwise you have chosen to believe.
I can go on and on. .. But my lunch break is over.
Hope you got the message with this little epistle?

Sir I am a proud Nigerian and still spend a sizeable part of my life in Nigeria. Nigeria is my home and I have my families there too. I will also be voting for PDP if you care to know so your "people living outside Nigeria" fear is for mostly unfounded as far am concerned.

bakila:

Because they live in London and nairaland is faceless everyone will assume you do not knw what is good for Nigeria. If they meet some of those people they look down upon on nairaland outside this shores, they begin to tell you how difficult it is to leave abroad and keep disturbng you for jobs when you return.

Please ask Tinubu, Atiku, Amaechi and the other APC sponsors where and how they got their wealth. Please do not forget to ask Buhari too how he got money to send her girl to London school. Please do remember to ask Buhari too about the "53 suitcases" when he was the Military leader. It will interesting to know that Buhari that overthrown democracy has now suddenly becomes "BORN AGAIN". He that will come to equity must come with CLEAN HANDS. Neither PDP or APC have any iota of clean hands. You are free to agree or otherwise. Its my preference to go for the devil I know rather than the angels of darkness (APC) that is being propagated.

bakila:

"Even if" oga you stay in London look for one tree there ask am the meaning of that word. You have made a chioce, stop acting objective, all the argument will not change your position. All the gentle propaganda will not work here. Buhari is going to chatham house to speak as stated By Garba Shehu, he is not in a hospital bed and all the spies Fayose sent to London did not bring a favourable report.
The issue of Goodluck failure is so ingrained in the Nigerian Psyche that all the gentle and hard propaganda will work in one section of Nigeria.
What do you have to say about the over a Billion dollar missing from the report commissioned by Goodluck?

Firstly, the bible says there are things that God hates. One of them is a "proud look". So I wish anyone, where ever they live and then looks down on others all the best. For me that is cheer pride. I do not know how living abroad makes anyone a "super" person over another one. But perhaps you are only saying what you stand for. I am sure you understand what I mean.

bakila:

If they meet some of those people they look down upon on nairaland outside this shores, they begin to tell you how difficult it is to leave abroad and keep disturbng you for jobs when you return.

I am now convinced beyond any reseable doubt that these my "learned friends" will not admit to the LIES of APC. That is fine. Lets take it that someone lies on my behalf, the honourable thing to do is to come out and say, no I did not stand for that. If you cannot tell me that you do not identy with a lie, then you are wittingly or unwittingly admitting that you support it or that that is what you stand for. I know you will come up with "well APC do not not want to dignify lies by refuting them" but they are admitting that the lies are their words/trades directly and indirectly.

shiningshina:


From the look of it, you are the LIAR here.

Show us where any of the OFFICIAL APC outlets released those pictures. Unless you do that, you are only parroting empty Jonathanian lies.

It is either APC released those pictures or they did not. Before you can say they did, you must show an OFFICIAL APC release of the pictures. Otherwise, you are nothing but a very cheap, disheartening disgrace to humanity.

Thank God for admitting that the now saints of APC of more than corrupt. So how can a black pot call another black? So if we go by your admittance its a choice between two evils? Then please stop deceiving yourself that one is better than the other. The Evil we know is better that the angels we are hearing about. So I opt for JONATHAN and i hope you respect my choice.

bakila:

Will you compare Ameachi with PEJ or Wike? Tinubu with Bode George or Atiku with Ali Modu Sheriff? GEJ has Nigeria's worst eleven. If you want to say Ameachi, Tinubu and Atiku are corrupt, what will you say of people like Oduah, Madueke, Offor, Wike, Danjuma, Fayose, Kashamu? You will say they are theives right?
The people on the PDP side of the divide are not only thieves-because it is a normal thing in the book of Jonathan- but are uncouth, crude and not deserving of being the poster boys of a President's national life.

This speaks volumes about a typical Nigerians mentality. I honesty pity my generation. Buhari is answerable to every Nigerians if he is clamouring to lead over 150 million people. Does that help you sir? Even if we wont vote for him, Nigerians still need to know about his state or dont you think so?

ayindejimmy:


Let's get One point straightened out here. Since when does Buhari becomes answerable to every pdp fans? He can go where ever he likes and post whatever pic he wants. If APC is cool with it... Chikena,!
Any other hypocrites can do the needful. It's not like any of you is gonna vote him. So why the interrogation?

With due respect to you my friend you are missing the point. Where ones lives is not that important but if all you can point out is the fact that someones lives in London, then that tells so much about your thinking.

In respect of where Tony Blair was, do the needful, all that information is at your finger tip. No need for education. if you are here on NL then you have access to how you can get that information if that is too much to ask of you sir.

TheOtherview:


Put your 'I live in London' attitude where your mouth is and prove that Tony Blair was not in the UK at the appointed time.

Do the honourable thing for posterity or zip it!

By the way I am a Nigerian so what ever happens in Nigeria is of grave importance to me. I will also be voting for your information. But the truth is that APC is not the answer. Tinubu, Amaechi, Atiku and the rest of them stinks. About 70 to 80% of those that turned Nigeria to what it is today are now the change singers. I guess they suddently become "BORN AGAIN" just by moving to APC. You do not have to agree with but that is my own opinion. And of course you need to own some of these pets and you will know how lovely they are. They are better than the APC LIERS.

bakila:

No need for further discussions with you on this topic. Please check how APC has been dealing with the PDP propaganda over time.
Thank you and best of luck with your travels in London. We are here to salvage Nigeria like a Buhari Government sponsored massage to Andrew. My PVC and that of those I can convince and positively influence will be useful to see that Nigeria is salvaged from divisive and parochial politics. If i guess correctly your position is influenced by the part of this country you are from, but Nigeria is more than the interest of TANIOD and those who want to build large houses and travel in armoured cars with lions as pets.

Sorry please enlighten us about the wheat from the chaff? APC lieing through their teeth that Buhari took picture with Tony Blair that was not even in UK? Sir I wish you all the best about your thinking about any Mr 'I live in London'. But sir, I cannot be deceived like some may be not because I know everything but at least I know some things and can see some things by myself.

TheOtherview:


You are wasting your time with Mr 'I live in London'.
He is not interested in separating the wheat from the chaff, certainly not while he considers Aye Dee as an authoritative source of information on 'all things Nigerian'.

Too many untutored minds on these booards, I tell you.

I am not too proud not to respect your and anyone's opinion. For me that is a testament of maturity. Afterall its not a do or die affair. I again repeat that APC lied by impling that Buhari took pictures with Tony Blair last week and some other pictures with some Nigerians like week. Its a LIE simple as that.

bakila:

Go and look at the source of the Picture. If it is from an official handle of the APC then they goof. If it is not, then you did not educate yourself from the context of the picture. Do any of the two and enrich your mind accordingly. Due respect implies that you disagree with me and we are in agreement on weekends in the context of our discussion. No be so?

OH SORRY when is his next appointment with the key members of the British political establishment and interact with some global institutions with stakeholder interest in the affairs of Nigeria. Or that too being arranged? APC LIES

So we are probably in for another Yardua? GOD forbid. APC and their LIES.

Seun:
Let's be frank. This is not why he travelled. If this was his reason for travelling they would have posted the info before he left. Having said that, there is no cause for concern over GMB's health. 'Worst' case scenario, Prof Osinbajo, a truly educated man, will become the acting president.

Its unfortunate that you wont be able to make it. I wont waste my time to be there either because its a waste of my time. Sir, google and NL is your friend to check out who the APC and Buhari handlers are that posted a one year old picture suggesting that it was shot last week (Buhari with Tony Blair). And by the way you probably wont know about the pictures because it attests to APC LIES.

queensmith:


Given the short notice I assume this particular event is considered high risk, he's a presidential candidate after all. High profile individual, they probably can't broadcast his movements too early.

I am disappointed though it will have been nice to attend.

Please direct me to the APC and buhari handlers that have posted doctored photographs. For the life of me I've been looking and I'm yet to find one.

@post the topic is a good one, but democracy doesn't seem to be Africa's problem. Our problem is corruption, mismanagement, lack of transperancy and it will be better to hear ideas on how we can address that as a continent.

I'll be following with hawk eyes though!

Could you please educate us on why APC lied to us last week by suggesting pictures of over 1 year old as being current? They said Buhari met Tony Blair when the guy (Tony Blair) was somewhere in Europe making his money? I live here sir so thank you for your education about our weekends. I have lived here for too long with due respect to you to know what weekends means to the west. But am please waiting for APC to tell the whole world why they lied that Buhari took a picture last week whereas those pictures were shot over 1 year ago.

bakila:

Hmm he leaves on Thursday and you want them to put the advert when he is not in that country yet? The guys over there dont joke with their weekends that is why we are still paying to watch Premier League. People create a life around weekend, which propels the economy in various way.
Again PDP have played into the hands of APC and have received another blow.

I SINCERELY thank God for you sir as an academic lectures organiser but you have no either of who I am and its pointless sharing that here. That APC finally got a hurried 1 hour does not help their lies. Again sir, what about the doctored pictures of over 1 year that is being purported to be current? I guess that also makes me and others very difficult to educate on NL? When you tell A lie, you obviously use another lie to cover it up. APC and their LIES.

OK mr man. I organise academic lectures with guest speakers from all over the world. If I send emails to a nobel prize prof to attend my event and he checks his schedules, then gives me a softish yes, do I go on to announce that to the world? If the Prof himself puts the event on his website, it still doesnt give me the right to publicise such event until I have a written or concrete bond from the Prof.
It is very embarassing for the host to announce a guest speaker and the speaker does not turn up.
APC can categorically say Buhari will attend Chatham house because APC hold the key to that event after being invited.

Ps. It is exhaustive trying to educate adamant folks like you on NL. Let it rest and wait till Thursday to confirm whether APC lies or You are faulty in your reasoning.

Praise for God for the APC liers. But why did it take you about a week to get this listed? Was that not one of the reasons he left Nigeria about a week ago? As at this morning it was listed. May be chatham house is to be blamed because Buhari did not confirm his appointment with them? before you give that excuse, please the press release of APC last week, you will get an answer from there. Please also tell us why APC and Buhari handlers have to post fake and doctored pictures that is over 1 year old as current pictures?

Sorry if I get you right, are you trying to compare Buhari with Obama? if the answer is yes, then sorry my friend its like comparing the dead and the living. Such have no comparison in my own opinion. So in essence you are suggesting to us that Buhari has not confirmed Chatham House's appointment before he left Nigeria and yet APC gave out a press statement? Is that your logic? APC LIERS.

Chatham house always wanted Buhari to speak. They however cannot release press statement until they are firm-sure that GMB will be there. All this nonsense of listing Chatham house events is childish. If Obama is in the UK tomorrow, and accepts Chatham house invite, they will create the space for him. Stop being ridiculous.
About the pix, well, you can travel to central London to take the correct pictures for us all to see. If not that chanced, wait till thursday and watch the live stream of the event. Also send the link to Fayose to see how hospitals look like.
