For those of you who keep hammering on him taking over from Shagari, have u ever taken time to ask why the coup happened? The democratic government then was as bad as what we have presently. It is like saying each time u beat ur child, it is an act of wickedness. Most times, u correct ur child out of love.

Eleven Reasons Why You Should Waste Your Vote On Jonathan

One, he’s the kind of president that will vote N10bn for 6 federal universities but will give N30bn for the entertainment industry. What about the health and education sectors?

Two, he’s the type of president that will vote N1.3bn for furniture in less than a year after his house was renovated for him and a similar amount spent by the deceased president on the same house? Insensitive? Selfish?

Three, he’s the kind of president that will provide intervention fund for the textile industry and less than one week later lift the ban on the importation of textile!

Four, he’s the kind of president that will increase the age of cars allowed into the country from 10 to 15 years when governments all over the world are spending billions to eliminate high carbon based carbon from the society because of negative impact on the environment.

Five, he’s the kind of president that will set up six universities premised on a silly reason that every state should have one, created additional three when all the existing ones are in a state of uselessness due to huge under-funding?

Six, he’s the kind of president that will waive and allow duty free importation of rice into the country, denying our local farmers the revenue, the support and the patronage needed for growth; all in the name of politics. Even Baba Iyabo was unhappy and could not believe that we import rice with so much local production going on.

Seven, he’s the kind of president that will consider creating an airport in each state of the federation when the existing international and local ones are in ruins and taken over by goats and cows. Please visit Kano International Airport at night and see whether you won't have to read psalm 23 for safe landing.




Eight, he’s the kind of president that will spend an entire $4.5bn in excess crude oil account in less than eight months; arguing that the account is illegal but the people have not seen anything he did with the money. Na wa oh!

Nine, he’s the kind of president that will spend N10bn or N17bn on an anniversary with nothing to write home about. Ghana spent less than N200m and the impact is still on 2 years later – I still dey vex for this one!

Ten, he’s the kind of president who under the guise of raising money for election keeps the price of kerosene and AGO at over N130. Well, it’s good for the masses. Na only no queues at the filling station una dey see?

Eleven, he’s the kind of president who will spend so much money on a carnival like campaign around the country without spending time to reflect on the number of children without shoes, without books and without food. Or are poverty stricken people no more in Nigeria?

I will not because of the calculation/assumption of a few/majority elite based on facts, deny my conscience of voting for the right candidate.

I refuse to let the perception of the electorate (majority) based on past elections & parties style (rigging) derail me of my choice of credible candidate.

I turn my back on that feeling of "hopelessness" experienced by majority; that no matter what they do, their vote can never amount to bringing about change.

I refuse to change my mind based on political analysis and their structures towards winning the Presidential election. Still will i vote wisely even if the most competent candidate has no political structure.

No amount of preaching/brain-washing can make me accept a party that has taken us back for 12yrs even if my father were to be the candidate of such party. Knowing fully well that a Destructive means can never bring about a Constructive end.

Yes, all might not be well but a well conscience has the might to reject the status quo & embrace change.

Believing otherwise when something is right means you are part of the problem, no matter how you try to justify it.

The fact that we cannot all agree on a common goal either as youths or as a nation does not give the room for us to deny the truth.

I make bold to say i shall be voting Buhari/Bakare, keep your thoughts, advice or history 'cos it makes no difference for me.

My conscience certifies them. I have no fear if they win or not, at least my conscience will judge me right.

Even if I have boil on my thumb, i'll use my tongue.

Nigeria lets vote without sentiments

Buhari saved the country from plunging into an abyss of total anarchy dealt upon it by the politicians then who just awoke to the potential loot available to them. What he did was different. Sometime, to wrench country from the jaws of indiscipline might take some sacrifices. as they say, desperate times require desperate measures.

Buhari is the only leader we have had who has never been found guilty of funds misappropriation(all d allegations are hear says and unproven). If for no other reason at all, that is enough for me to want to give him a try. at least, we have seen how much better the lives of the common masses have become since the beginning of our democratic journey of 12 years

so if your boss for example, commits a crime, does that make him responsible for the crime you and your subordinates commit thereafter? I dont think so.

Do you know the state the so called democracy was in as at the time he took over? It was in such a terrible state that am sure if you were in his shoes and had as much passion as he did and still does, you would have done the same. I am not absolving him of any wrong doing but as at that time, taking the reins seemed the right thing to do. Now, saying he is responsible for the other coups is unfair. Did he tell them to conduct coups? Did he tell them to steal money?

Most of the allegations levelled against him are hear say issues. Like arresting Fela and co, did he arrest Fela himself? Well, if you guys wanna blame him for what people in his government did, then GEJ is responsible for a lot of citozens killed by the NPF

enuf of u guys insulting each other like kids, it doesnt have to come to that, come-on!!!
Am still waiting for the pro-gej guys on the questions i posed though. Once u give justifications, i will rest my case[quote author=deezzle link=topic=645803.msg8122359#msg8122359 date=1302745597][/quote]

u guys chickened out? am waiting still

Sometimes, u can put ur enemies to best use(48 Laws of power). Besides, all u heard was that he met with them the details of the meeting is unknown hence there is no reason jumping to unfounded conclusions. this cannot be substantiated like the points i raised. Besides, what has a meeting with them. For ur info, the G15 met with GEJ as well.  http://dailytrust.dailytrust.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=16598:presidential-polls-buhari-meets-ciroma-group-today&catid=1:news&Itemid=2

So, please go ahead and respond to my post, i beg u

Need your responses to these

How does a man whose friends are the Atikus, alams, Otedolas coma across to you guys as someone who will make a difference? What is your opinion about the national awards bestowed upon patricia ette or the presidential greeting publicly directed at bode george? do u know how many people die everyday in our ill equipped federal hospitals? did u see how much of an eyesore the hospital where the suleja bomb blast victims were taken was? what would it have taken the pdp led federal government to ewuip hospitals? Otedola sells deisel which will only be profitable as long as there isnt stable electricity. why will he be a supporter/sponsor of the gej ticket if he isnt sure that power will remain in its present state?what about the lip service being paid to Jos crisis? how about the promise of ensuring the bombers of 1st october are brought to justice? no bomber/kidnapper has ever been arrested? how about alams and ibori being treated with kids gloves? a spineless leader is what we do not need. a leader who sorrounds himself with mediocres and crooks will deepen our sorrows. what informed the appointment of bianca onoh as an adviser? why does he need 133aides? https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-608976.0.html Why does he keep buying jets with the tax payer's money? what do u make of his empty silly promises of 36airports and new universities when the ones on ground are not maintained?

By the spirit of God is not the same as God has shown me. That quotation with the "by the spirot of God" is either incomplete or totally out of context

U are wrong. It wasnt a divine message, it was based on his personal perception

@Aletheia, I can call u an idiot based on my misconception of u as a result of thing i must have read or heard u say which coulda been misquoted or out o context. But on meeting you, i can then realise how great a guy u probably are. It happens to a lot of us as human beings. We make judgement wrongly sometimes which is not abnormal. tunde Bakare said this before he met Buhari and after meeting him, he realised how golden he is.

I had met Ribadu and thought highly of him but his actions lately has changed my opinion of him

if u judge buhari to be a mumu, then spineless jonathan who was nearly made to be Turai's houseboy is what? a doormat!!!!

He had to ask USA to help him get power from Turai.

If not for Tunde Bakare and co, Turai would have dealt with him

GEJ will shock all of u. If u are all right about him being a man of honor, then he will do the honorable thing and vote for Buhari

He said there was nothing rong with the system but funding!! What else would u have him say.

Ribadu is always livid about every point anyone makes so he is inconsequential as far as i am concerned

And he was right, there is nothing wrong with our 6334 system but funding. Most of us are products of that system but unfortunately, due to lack of funds, the standard has gone downhill. The reason for the lack of funding can be traced to corruption!!!! That is what buhari said and it is very true

A prayer for suppoters of GEJ

As you cast you vote for pdp come saturday, may any bad policies they (pdp government) pass (if they get to win) affect you, you family and generation yet unborn 100 times more than it will affect any other group of person(s)

Any curse you throw on the president and any member of the pdp party, may it bounce back to you, your family and generation yet unborn in a million folds.

May you never get to regret for a second why you voted the pdp into power for if you do (even for a second) then and only then will your suffering start to multiply.

May you be the shield to absolve/absorb ALL the bad policies passed unto the masses and the country as a whole.


AMEEN!!!

beef and others i want you all to say amen to the above prayer.

The man is a decorated GENERAL!!! How can he shed crocodile tears?? Nigerians, what exactly do you want

Why is it hard for people to see passion? is it because most people don't really have it? I saw the clip and i was moved because the man is not crying to win anybody's sympathy but crying because he knows that we are a hard to please people who will always find it hard to be united due to our selfishness, greed and self-imposed blindness to our reality(eternal sentence to unwarranted suffering).

Like obasanjo said, even if our Lord Jesus Christ comes down and vies for a position of Presidency, and He doesnt bribe (which He will never do) or sponsor star studded adverts, Nigerians will cast their vote for the man who gives them "chop-chop".

I am in no way comparing any man with Jesus, I am just trying to explain my conclusions about the confused people known as Nigerians.

Whenever you hear the excuses given by pro Jonathan supporters and anti Buhari supporters, the question that comes to mind is "what do nigerians really want?"

It is like a woman that is regularly abused by her man but keeps going back once he begs and gives her some gifts.

Nigerians, wake up from your slumber, PDP has nothing good to offer you and this trend will continue until we use our votes right

What exactly are you thanking Jonathan for? If anyone needs to be praised for a job well done, it is Jega not Jonathan.

Jonathan did his job by choosing a man of integrity such as Jega and that is all he had to do with it. All this thanking and praising him is silly, really

At the slightest provocation – in fact, often at no provocation at all – Nigerians invoke God’s name. In today’s column, I imagine a letter God has written to Nigerians titled “You’re on your own” Here goes.
 
 
Beloved Nigerians (yes, I call you beloved even though many of you are among the world’s most unrepentant sinners), I’m going to be blunt.
 
I am getting impatient with what you call prayers. Many of you let out deafening screams and shrieks in the name of praying. It’s as if you think I’m deaf – that I won’t hear you unless you shout, punch the air like bad boxers, and contort your faces into strange expressions, like unseasoned Nollywood over-actors.
 
In fact, if I weren’t indestructible, I would since have lost my hearing for all the noise many of you make while praying. If I appeared before you in physical form, I’m afraid some of you would long have poked out my eye for all the jabbing you do when you pray. Please take note: my perceptual faculties are sound; they’re so flawless that even the word “perfect” is too imperfect to describe them. My hearing, for instance, is so good that I even hear the heart’s silent murmur. Please quit this rude habit of howling you mistake for prayer.
 
Irritating as I find your style of supplication, you have other habits that really, really gall me. One is how you bother me, day and night, to give you the things I’ve already granted you in prodigious quantities. Another is your ceaseless pleas that I do for you what you should be doing for yourselves.
 
What great gifts haven’t I bestowed on you Nigerians? I gave you a huge supply of rich arable land that should make you the envy of other nations. You can grow all kinds of food on this land – yam, cocoyam, groundnuts, rice, potatoes and more. Yet, a few among you bask in greed and wallow in conspicuous consumption while the majority goes hungry. Then I buried massive reserves of some of the most treasured natural resources in your land, among them tin, coal, and oil – the 20th century’s black gold.
 
Again, you have allowed a gluttonous few among you to steal the wealth that should belong to all. Look around you, how many of your African neighbors can boast even a fraction of the resources I have blessed you with? For that matter, how many countries in the world are as richly endowed as you?
 
What has all that wealth done for you? Nothing!
 
No roads. Each year, your politicians and rulers pocket hundreds of billions of naira that should be spent on roads. Instead of sending them off to jail, what do you do? You garland them with empty titles and include their names on your roll of national honor. Instead of calling them criminals, you celebrate them. Instead of covering your noses in their presence, many of you grovel before them. You flatter them with the names of “Leader,” “stakeholder,” “prominent Nigerian,” or “Mr. Fix-it.” You baptize them as chieftains when you ought to address them properly, as thieftains.
 
Each year, thousands of you perish in horrible accidents on the country’s ill-paved or neglected roads. In other countries, these avoidable deaths would trigger outrage at the rapacious politicians who did away with the budget for roads. Not in Nigeria . Instead, you raise your over-loud voices to heaven, as if I decreed that the roads be in ghastly condition. You call down “holy ghost fire” on the faceless witches and wizards you blame for these road casualties.
 
Such demons exist only in the deceptive imagination of your imams and pastors. The simple reality is that bad roads and deplorable driving habits cause accidents.
 
Yes, when you should hold your politicians accountable, you embrace the abracadabra of some so-called “men of God” who preach that accidents are caused by marine spirits. Such superstitious nonsense sometimes fills me with pity, other times with holy rage.
 
The culture of mediocrity extends to every sector of your national life. As I write, the man you call your president is lying in a Saudi hospital. Ask yourselves a few simple questions. Why do your leaders always fly to other countries for medical treatment? Are there no qualified Nigerian physicians to treat their ailments? Why are most of these experts living and working abroad? How do the leaders treat the Nigerian doctors who are home-based? Are they encouraged with funds to do their research? Does the government provide equipment to enable them to serve the rest of you when you fall sick?
 
Why do you put up with fake leaders who travel abroad at your expense, but who do nothing to ensure you have access to decent health care when you fall sick? Why can’t you insist that, unless they meet one condition, they can no longer use your funds to fly abroad? That condition is this: if they can’t, or won’t, fix the country’s health care delivery system, then they must first budget funds for each and every sick Nigerian to be flown abroad as well. You must refuse to underwrite their treatment in countries other men and women have organized well.
 
Today, hundreds of thousands of you die yearly from malaria and other easily manageable diseases. Far too many women die giving birth – a rarity in most other countries. Again, why don’t you rise and chase off the wreckers of your lives, the despoilers of your present and future, the looters of your treasury? Why, instead, do you turn to pastors and imams to intercede on your behalf for divine healing?
 
A few years ago, your former president flew in an American pastor to come and deliver miraculous healings. Did any of you wonder why the same president, when he’s sick, consults a foreign doctor instead of a foreign pastor?
 
Let me spell it out again: the pastors who tell you that some invisible dark forces and principalities are behind the senseless deaths of sick Nigerians are plain liars. Hear me well: they are unscrupulous scam artists who exploit you with superstitious tales. These deaths occur because of two related reasons: one, that most of your so-called leaders are simply unconscionable robbers, and, two, that many of you – out of moral cowardice, ignorance or some parochial principle – allow the contemptible usurpers to get away with carting off public funds.
 
Oh, how you Nigerians sometimes test my patience! You rig elections, and you say it’s God’s doing. You steal power, and you say – knowing it’s a lie – that only God gives power. You embezzle billions from the public treasury, and you say – again, knowing it’s a lie – that God has blessed you. Some of you then pay ten percent of your loot to a sham pastor – as if it’s possible to bribe God. Other ruthless thieves among you take up knighthoods in one denomination or another, or make a fetish of going to Mecca , or build a private chapel or mosque. Do you think that God is an accessory to fraud, or will ever be impressed by a robber’s gestures, however seemingly grand in the eyes of mere mortals?
 
It irks me to hear Nigerians say that only God can solve your problems – when the solution is well within your grasp? Did God manufacture your problems? Your leaders (who are actually rulers, for they can’t lead) buy up swanky real estate in South Africa , Dubai , England , Europe, the US , even in neighboring Ghana . Do you not know that true leaders, not I, built up these countries and their infrastructures?
 
Do you not remember how you once regarded Ghana as a basket case? How that country’s citizens flooded the streets of Nigeria in search of any menial job that was to be had? Today, Ghanaians leaders and followers, working together, are revamping their nation. Some of your former heads of state have fatter bank accounts than Ghana . Yet, Ghanaians have husbanded their resources and are achieving a nation they can be proud of, and others commend. Ghana ’s cities and many rural areas now enjoy virtually uninterrupted power supply. How about Nigeria ? It’s a narrative of failure. After squandering billions of dollars on fictional power projects, your leaders can’t guarantee 2,000 megawatts on a good day! No wonder your leaders, shameless as ever, now flock with their mistresses to Accra and other Ghanaian cities for weekend romps and revelries. But I wonder: Why do you accept this decrepit existence?
 
Here’s the bottom line: I’ve given Nigerians more than their fair share in natural and human endowments. It’s up to you to achieve the change you want – or else remain captive to woes. Begin today – not tomorrow – by committing to moral conversion. You’re world champions in praying. It’s time to start acting. Work for the change you desire. If you believe in God, then let it show. True believers don’t engage in corrupt acts. They don’t steal elections, nor do they rest until hijackers of elective office are swept out.
 
Know this, ye Nigerians. It’s not God’s job to build your roads and hospitals, to sweep your dirty streets, to do the work of your doctors, to drag your corrupt leaders before a magistrate, or to kill those you permit to destroy your collective lives. Listen to Fela: Don’t shuffer and shmile. And to Bob Marley: stand up for your rights

Dear ladies and gents,

One thing is clear reading thrugh the thread, all the allegations labelled against Buhari are mostly hearsay. yes, as a military leader, he was high handed but at that time, it was necessary. Am sure we are all familiar with the term "desperate times need desperate measures". Nigeria was degeneratiing into a banana republic during shagari's regime and someone needed to take charge. Maybe he lingered too long in his cleansing quest, but he meant well. A lot of us here who live in Nigeria are witnessing a situation where we wonder if fainess, discipline and merit are words our society still believe in? or how else will u describe a situation where someone accused of involvement in the death of the attorney general win an election form jail?

We all need to look beyond religion or ethnicity but be logical and think deep about what our common problem is, we have leaders who care only bout their pockets and a president who doesnt see any reson why he should caution them. At least , he is the party leader!!!

Can some of you answer these question:

Will a reasonable president honor Patricia Ette with two national awards?
Will a reasonable president send a congratulatory message to Bode George?
why will Alams be working for his campaign organisation http://www.vanguardngr.com/2010/10/alamieyeseigha-rallies-support-for-jonathan/
Why create new universities when the ones existing are at a point of total decay


as far as am concerned, Jonathan is being supported by deisel importers and generator merchants and hence, a vote for him is more like a vote for regression. All he has been saying are mere political nonsense, or how else will u explain building 36 airports? or ensuring goverment buys nigerian assembled cars?

some of his ideas are good ones but with the people sorrounding him, it is obvious they are just empty promises he will never fulfil.

We need to let these people know that we are wise and mere empty words do not move us.

We all need to take a stand against a PDP led government.

All they keep saying is they have improved the power generation but how many people feel the effect of their claim? A non-performing government does not deserve our vote

U supporting Beaf's manner of insulting people will make me loose the respect i have for u.

Tribalist: he has xtians amongst his staff. every body has d right to be a devout xtian or muslim
My vote for senate is to a pdp candidate and Fashola is my gov candidate cos of their performance but at the center goodluck has shown no sign of crediility and capability as a result of his actions, inactions and the people sorrounding him. What did patricia ette do to deserve nattional awards,? wghat did bode george do to be given a presidential congratulation? what did ringim do to deserve the post of IG? Well, maybe u didnt know but Atiku, Alams, IBB and OBJ are d people behind d mask. Noone needs to explain that to you. Or why do u think the case against dame was swept under the carpet like iyabo's. how many of u can say the common man has benefited adequately from 12 years of PDP rule? i have seen a lot of suffering amongst the grassroots and i know that nigerians deserve better. am not sayng Buhari is a saint but what am saying is that rigght now, he is the only onw with the resolve to battlke our number one enemy, which is corruption because he has no godfather who will tell him what to do. he is a leader with a passion. ho many ex presidents can sit with a crowd of nigerians? babangida has been stoned before and obj has been beaten, but Buhari was applauded. that should tell u something. i can go on and on but one thing i want to tell u is this, wine gets better with age. a democracy is not run by one person so no matter how outdated u say he is, i am sure he will sorround himself with people of honesty and integrity. at leats, the ones u have that have ideas and are young like dimeji bankole and co have done nothing for anyone but themselves. so lets leave these trivial points alone and face the fact that we need to get rid of corruption.  do u know the tallest building in the word cost just $1.8bn? we spent 16bn and there is NOTHINg to show for it and u wanna continue with that party and its looting members? think twice

its called "lip service"

Jonathan unbanned everything, he was verbally attacked and insulted.
Jonathan is calling for the patronage of made in Nigeria goods, He is being attacked and murdered with insults.
Can someone tell me what else he will do that the anti-jonathan charlatans will not piss on their pants for?
After all everyone is shouting that Patience Jonathan called umbrella "Umblerra", no one is complaining about Buhari's distasteful Hausa Intonation.
I dint want to vote for GEJ in the past, but the kind of unnecessary hatred that's directed to him, despite some of his genuine achievements have made me to have a change of mind. I will vote for GEJ. Yes, I will cast my vote for him to lead for the next 4 years. After all, Buhari is not a saint too. Was it not Buhari that said that Abacha did not steal? If he said that, then to him, stealing 4billion pounds is child's play. He probably is looking to compete with Dangote when he wins.
Jonathan is trying to protect Innoson V.M., Annamcmco, PAN etc. It is a good thing that he even thought about it.[/b]

you seem not to get the point. u need to vote based on what the individual and party cab achieve and their past achievements and their manifestos, not because people are hating on someone. I dont hate or dislike Jonathan, i hate what PDP had done and hasnt done in this country. i hate the facct that we are stikk being ruled by people who have interest in deisel and generators and we expect phcn to work?

Naijaking1, i hear all u are saying but havent substantiated ur claim of corruption. when u do that, i will debunk ur claims and u will eventually vote for Buhari
