This report is very funny! Handing over to an interim govt is the funniest part! Who would jettison the opportunity to rule nigeria 4 the next 4yrs just 4 an interim govt! A sitting president is scared of opposition in nigeria? Seems they havnt been following nigerian politics!!

Yes, most commentators here are apparently poor students of history. In the first place, who would imagine the election would ever be postponed? Such is just a tip of the ice-berg of the unlimited powers in African presidency. They failed to understand that Jonathan's presidency and power of incumbency would be no less different from that of OBJ or even the military leaders before him who were also COMMANDERs IN CHIEF.

The events of the next 5 weeks was better observed than all these uninformed rantings.

It doesn't matter whose brain-child the APCs were, but however, credit must be given to whom it is due. These Armoured Personel Carriers were perfected and built during the time Major General Charles Maduegbunam headed DICON, and Lt. Gen. Ihehirika COAS. The record must be put straight at all times.

Imagine your dad being one of those cops that will face the imminent danger. He simply told them not to shoot first but wipe out the group of thugs if anyone cop doing his job was shot by them. Simple.

Fellow Nigerians, who would you rather trust Nigeria with

Well, not eye-popping enough for Jonathanians.....The votes of the people you mentioned would be no more than their respective single vote. Sad truth.

Tinubu, ask your thugs and Iyalojas to release the PVC of Nigerians resident in Lagos. You're the terror yourself, TINUBU.

Good news is that no empire has lasted forever. A fact of history those holding others down by force in the name of one Nigeria has refused to accept!

Why don't you go back to school and learn English language? You are not intelligent enough to have discussion with human being.

My bro, make u look well o.....Are you sure yours was correct?

Haba Obasanjo! This type of weak response is not deserving of a "bloody civilian" as Jonathan. I expected something more than this market-woman response. Afterall you were a "kingmaker" most people looked up to before this moment.

So, Jonathan is really stronger than you and was merely trying to respect your age? Wow!

Where are the presumptious APCs? Why did you allow the "clueless" one pull this on you guys?

Chapter ONE, let the games begin.

Can't believe the "clueless" one could navigate through this unprecedented political labyrinth while the "clueful" watch powerlessly. For the presumptious APCs, this is just chapter ONE, i believe. Let the games begin.

The Igbos' eyes are on the oil in the Niger delta. They think they would an easy ride over the nationalities in that region, but it's war that will generate. Should Nigeria breaks, the south east and south south alliance will be worse than Yugoslavia. Igbos are born with set of wrong genes, they are diseased with worst greed ever witnessed in human history. They are all insanely criminal.

You guys have kept projecting a likely hypothesis about the Igbos over their minorities. And yet have not yet proven it in the past 50 years. This is even as the Niger deltans, over the same number of years, have stood and watch the so called 'liberators' pillage their resources without remorse. Criminal 'liberaors' like yours have turned the Niger delta resources to war booty and left the people in penury. Where is the love?

Nobody can tell us again in the NIger Delta who our allies and detractors are. We've watched the voting patterns since 2011 and history has recorded it for posterity.

GEJ prays he is humble, Buhari prays, he is a religious bigot. If Buhari was spotted as many times as GEJ in the mosque, people will call h a religious fundamentalist. GEJ address the nation every week from different churches across the country, they say he is humble. Such double standard

Buhari is not held on a different standard but on his own human rights record. This is irrespective of what Islam represents today the world over.

If this man is voted out of office, the ethnic hatred, disharmony and finger pointing it will cause, especially in the south, will linger for so many decades if not indefinetly. Just like the roles played by some of us during the Biafran war.

Humility and public service at work. For Christians and non Christians alike, Jonathan is an open wound only conscience can nurture. We shall see. Nigeria may never have his type again. If this man is voted out of office, the ethnic hatred, finger pointing and disharmony it will cause will linger silently for so many decades.

Ayus34:
hmmm.....this is a former governor, all I know is that if it were to be from another tribe some egoistic bigot will not allow us to rest,telling us how he stole the whole state resources. ...their own son is not corrupt as at now......funny set of people!

I'm not holding brief for Kalu but those with cognitieve bias, like you, will always not disappoint. Could still remember that way before Kalu became a governor, he was a millionaire in dollars to the extent that he gave OBJ the equivalent of 1 million dollars for his campaign in 1998, an open secret.

soroptimist:
Igbo elites are too well entrenched in the Nigerian system to contemplate the blood-filled Biafra chants of some of their youths

Where will they relocate all their choice properties,private jets,warehouse,ocean going vessels to

I pity some Igbo youths who feel otherwise

Freedom of association or dis-association is a part of the big body of the inalianable human rights. Crying more than the bereaved in this issue is not smart. There are Igbo businesses and the accompanying assets all over west african countries. These assets are very safe even more than those in Nigeria. The chief reason being that they are not under any form of rival ethnic jealousy. The fear of domination is not there because the people are classified as foreigners, there is no competition of national common interest.

Therefore, Igbos will be safer and their contributions more respected in any country carved out of Nigeria. And to the contrary, the Igbo youths, pity for your types who for obscure reasons, enjoy the arrested development called Nigeria. The issue of ocean-going vessels was better left for those who enjoy delusion.

while sum igbo's are busy making money and investing it...sum fail and frustrated igbo's are shouting "biafra" putting dia failure on one nigeria

kettykin:
Why are you frustrated with the push for biafra.
Will it not make Nigeria much easier to manage and with less population to manage the meagre resources

Kettykin, that's my thoughts as well. An official Biafran territory will make Nigeria much more easier. Would APC be having all this headache if there was Biafra? The answer is NO.

Buhari and his Co-travellers would have long been enjoying their "CHANGE". Isn't it?

I believe a time will come when the whole truth about the "inability" of the NA to fight Boko Haram will be known. How come Boko Haram began to record military successes 6 DAYS after Ihejirika ceased to be the nations army chief? Ihejirika was an army engineer, right? And no single Nigerian territory was lost under his command? But how come Boko Haram began to cease territories when he was replaced with a deadlier infantry general, Kenneth Minimah, whose speciality was the battle field?

I believe i will one day read the memoirs of these actors. The truth shall surely come out.

Imagine the persons of Bob Manuel Udokwu and Zulu Adigwe standing and looking at the casket of their colleague placed on a cut-and-nail bench?

Where is the sense of diginity here? Is it too much for them to rush to Afoigwe market and buy a piece of African wax cloth and place on those dirty benches? The most simple thing real friends can do for a fallen colleague, irrespective of the deceased family, is missing here. I Can't believe my eyes.

This gonna be a real issue for Buhari as his speech has been so much slurred way more than it was in 2011 debate face-off with Shekarau and Co. Relatively, Jonathan communicates better and will eventually emerge the winner. But Buhari, on the other hand, could have plausible issues but his poor oratory may be his undoing in getting his message across. Presidential debates are more of being ardent in articulating the issues of the moment and stage-manship than anything. Interesting.

@Rizstar, i can't help but lol. My ribs are already cracked up especially with the "certipikate". You're really wicked, my guy.

Always investing on things with residual value. Few years down the line, they will start blaming their colleagues or the public for nothing contributing money for their overseas medical treatment. Petty lot.

Tokunboh Ajasin should desist from Bread and butter politics and leave semantics for what they are. A jail is a place of detention. Ajasin wasn't kept in his house but in a public jail house regardless of whether he was convicted or not. In other words, he was jailed. PERIOD. He can make the argument that the old man forgave Buhari and not that he didn't "jail" him.

Nigerian Politics has become an issue for Fish sellers to meddle in.

Those "fish sellers" have the moral authority to participate in politics than the gun wielding boss-killer and coupist like TY Danjuma and Buhari.
As a member of the zoo called Nigeria, I know this may be difficult for you to comprehend

Please, Sahara Reporters, respect the Regent of Akure by recognizing her marital status. Accord it properly by adressing her as Princess Adetutu Adeshida-Dike. She's not a bigot and as such her world view ought to be respected. More over, nothing in Akure tradition (as long as she remains married) forbids her from being adressed with her husband's surename.

Jabioro:
u forgot record easily,2011 electn,jona 20 state,total vote 22 million plus Buhari cpc then 16 state wt total vote 16 million plus..Jona wt sympathy vote frm AC in south west..nw things had change..BUHARI still hold on 2 his 16 states while uncle Jona 20 states and vote wil be divided into two..there4 16 plus 10=26 state,approx,vote 26m'pls take FebUHARI IS @ hand,

Verify your info, please! To the contrary, Buhari won 12 states and 12 million votes in 2011. GEJ got 2.8M votes from the south west even as he won Buhari with over 10million votes. Lets see how much Buhari will eat into all that 10 million in 2015. Interesting!

@ceo4eva, you doing a great job as always. A Picture speaks thousand words and it's apparent here. Victory is assured on the 14 feb cuz light and darkness can never have a good Chemistry. Thank u so much, bro.

Never knew Muna was a deep rooted, core Anambra guy from the great people of Dunukofia. May God accept his soul. What a tragedy!

Too much mouth untop 5 million pvc,jonathan,na north and west ur victory dey so u better work harder.



Sai buhari jare

The last time i checked in 2011, it wasn't much there in the west, 2.8M actual voters. Don't worry about your cosmopolitan votes

EverestdeBliu:
How true is your story?

How less true could it have been coming from INEC's Resident Electoral Officer? SE has well over 7million registered voters and 77 percent of that will be about 5.39 million.
