You are a man, you tell me is that attractive?

Chiam55:
I second that. I see nothing more than reminiscing exes. It's true you'll find whatever you're looking for good or bad. He was jst being cheeky and a lil flirtatious with an ex. She is making a mountain out of a molehill.

You should remove Gbemi from this list..Even if she contests for the post of a wife in her husband's house, she won't win the election...especially now that her father is no more. She has no political value

FORMER Federal Commissioner for Information and South South leader, Chief Edwin Clark yesterday condemned in very strong terms, the presentation of Certificate of Commendation by the President of the United States of America, President Barrack Obama to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega.

Speaking to Journalists yesterday in Abuja, Chief Clark stressed that the presentation of a ‘Certificate of Commendation’ to Jega over the conduct of the Presidential and National Assembly elections March 28th, 2015 with the Governorship and State Houses of Assembly polls yet to be conducted was too hasty,

Clark who urged the US to leave Nigeria alone, said that Nigeria remains an independent country capable of doing its things, its own way and not according to the dictates of the western world, adding, ” I was surprised that Barack Obama gave Professor Attahiru Jega an award when the elections are still on . Obama should be tactful in handling the affairs of Africa. US should leave us alone, Nigeria is an Independent country. They tried it Egypt, they should not try anything in Nigeria,

President Obama who presented the certificate to Jega, would be recalled was represented by the United States Ambassador to Nigeria, James Entwistle.

The ‘Certificate of Commendation’ was awarded to Jega for his outstanding and sterling performance in conducting a credible election. Obama said what Prof. Jega has done should be replicated by all.

Being afraid you'll never get married is a good way to never get married.
People should work on personal development and having an actual life--family time, friends, and the occasional bump-in with nice strangers. Maybe, just maybe they will end up with their 'perfect' match.

What's the brouhaha with the marriage talk anyway?

Eggcelent:
President GEJ gives the impression of a good man at heart but a bad judge of character & someone too laid back to confront his erring subordinates. I wouldn't know the inner workings at Aso Villa, but judging from the outside, it seems the man never fully understood what it meant to be the President of Federal Republic of Nigeria. He might have done much better as governor of one of the smaller states.

missclasssy:
[color=#000050]Op, for the sake of your mum and dad's marriage, I think it's best you don't tell your mum or anyone.

From everything you have said, it seems you are really close to your dad.

Here is my advise~ I think the best thing you do is sit your dad down and talk to him in all seriousness and maturity
Tell him that what he is doing isn't right and it's even having a bad influence on you as his child.
Explain to him that him cheating on your mum is total wickedness because she loves him so much.
Tell him that if he doesn't stop that you would report him to a spiritual leader or an elder relation.

If he continues this absurd behavior, Op you have no choice but to do just that.

I know it would be tough being in your condition but don't give up on your dad. Always include him in your prayers and keep on praying that God would continue to keep his union with your mum.

Thanks.[/color]

I BELIEVE SERIOUSLY THAT THE COPPER IS SERIOUSLY AT FAULT... IMCA PRINCIPAL AND I'VE VOWED NEVER TO ACCEPT ANY COPPER IN MY SCHOOL, THEY ALWAYS BEHAVE LIKE IF THEY HAVE GOT IT ALL, TRYING TO RUN THE SCHOOL NEVER FORGETTING THEY ARE KIDS THAT JUST GRADUATED AND NEED A LOT TO LEARN. THE LAST COPPER I HAD ALMOST SLAPPED ME AND SINCE THEN I BELIEVED COPPERS ARE JUST ALWAYS SUFFERING FROM INFERIORITY COMPLEXITY....

GentleToks:
Let speak the truth and shame the devil. This attitude of hiding behind one finger in order not to upset a certain region of the country is not my thing. After all, Northerners were called all sort of names as a result of Boko haram menace and Yorubas were called all sort of names during wild wild west political brouhaha....

Jonathan administration revealed how tribal Igbos can be if opportunity presents itself. Please I m not one of those that would come here to patronise them, let's speak the truth at all time and shame d devil. The good thing about other Nigerians is their forgiving spirit and the fact that other Nigerians easily forget things and move with their lives, otherwise Igbos would have equally been paid back with their own coins.

Prior to Jonathan administration, the new generation of Nigerians believed that Igbos were truly being marginalised at the federal level going by their "marginalisation rhetorics" year in, year out. However, it was not only a shock to me but an act of wickedness to see the same people dancing to the fact that all the sensitive governmental positions are being occupied by their sons and daughter; forgetting that one day, just one day, it ll be the turn of other people. It was the same show of shame, hatred towards other ethnic groups and Marginalisation of others under Aguiyi Ironsi administration. Aguiyi Ironsi attention was even called to the development but refused to listen. Can Igbo ever complain of marginalisation anymore in this country? Capital No.

Stop blaming their leaders; the followers are even worse than their leaders. Haven't u read their repulsive utterances on various social media platforms against Hausas and Yorubas? Were they coerced to write those gibberish against others by their leaders? No. Remember that a snake ll not give birth to goat....

Historically, Akintola tried to let Yorubas follow the footpath of Igbos as far as politics is concerned, having seen and witnessed what Igbos did in the East in 60s. The same Akintola experience back in 60s repeated itself again in last gubernatorial election in Anambra state where these people were openly preaching hatred towards Hausas and Yorubas in particular; tagged APC a Yoruba party but the good thing is that Yorubas refused to follow that footpath.....

Finally, I was having a discussion with my fellow Igbo church members on Sunday about Nigeria politics and I realised that they were all supporting Jonathan and i asked them the reason why their support were given to Jonathan, none of them could utter a word; so 8th shows that their support for Jonathan was a result of tribal sentiment

However, I only urge the new generation from the east to desist from this game of hatred.....

Peace out

STPEACE:
there is something abt President Jonathan. He never opened mouth to insult Buhari.

chocolatelady:
My Igbo brothers and sisters, I am sure that by now, we all are regretting our actions by voting PDP becos of sentiments . Now see where it has landed us, no Igbo Senate President. We must learn to be unbiased in our dealings and not stick to ethinicity and religion. Even the so called Anambra Governor, I heard that he told his state to vote for PDP without telling then to vote for his own party for Senatorial positions. I will say ntorr to him becos it serves him right. Why cant he tell his people look vote for whoever u want as the president but never forget to vote APGA for Senate. Had it been that they voted for Ngige, he would have been the senate president. Now this position will go to the North Central even we are not even sure of Igbo speaker. After, we will cry foul that we have been marginalised. Are we not the one doing the marginalisation becos of the way we think ? This presidential election is a food for thought for all. I am Igbo but a die hard supporter of Buhari since 2003 becos I saw in him a man of integrity and incorruptible which our politicians lack. So why wont I vote for him. I so much admire the man's preserverance, upon after losing three times he still went ahead to contest again . For me that is a good virtue. Also I want to appeal to Buhari and APC to focus more on the way to move this country forward becos people are really suffering and i also advise them against entertaining any PDP member that will want to join them now. Pls tell the person No becos some politicians dont like to be in the opposition and besides they might mess up all u have struggled for all these years.

Congratuations muhammadu buhari !!!!
Sai baba, Sai Buhari !!!!!!!!!!!

EUROBOMBER:
Let me start by saying congratulations to Muhammadu Buhari for winning the presidential election and emerging as Nigeria’s president-elect. I have come to realise that Buhari’s victory is the will of God for Nigeria and so, I have come to accept him as my president.

I also want to congratulate President Goodluck Jonathan for being mature enough to accept defeat and concede the election. This man remains one of the greatest Nigerian presidents because he could have decided to set Nigeria on fire but chose the honourable path.

I want to also recognise all my fellow PDP e-warriors that stood beside the President. Thank you for your resilience and unflinching support all through the struggle. Also to recognise all the APC e-warriors who fought bravely in support of their party despite all odds and won the battle.

MY MESSAGE FOR BUHARI



Now that you have become the President, I want to let you know that the change Nigerians really need is not the change of personalities or political party, Nigerians are just tired of the way things have been going in this country. Nigerians are suffering; we struggle to provide basic needs that ordinarily the Government should provide. Thieves continue to steal and get richer while the majority of Nigerians are languishing in poverty. This is the reason why Nigerians have decided to give you a chance; the people believe that God can use you to turn things around in this country that is why you were voted for last Saturday.

(1) Fight corruption to a complete halt in this country especially in the petroleum sector. Sanitize the NNPC, ensure transparency and accountability. Nigerians all over should be able to benefit from our God-given resources. A few cannot continue to hold this country to ransom and steal at will.

(2) Provide stable and reliable power supply for Nigerians. This will enable SME’s to thrive and encourage investors to flock massively into the country. The cost of doing business in this country is crazy because of high energy costs. We must do away with generators in this country for good Mr President.

(3) Please diversify our economy. We cannot continue to depend heavily on oil in Nigeria. Sit down and take a good look at the six geopolitical zones in this country and find a way of harnessing all economic potentials for the good of all Nigerians. Our economy must be less dependent on crude oil.

(4) Deal ruthlessly with corrupt persons who believe that they can continue to steal and do business as usual. This is a democracy but Mr President, you are the C-in-C and you have enormous powers at your disposal, please use them! Don’t be like Jonathan who allowed his Government to be hijacked by criminals who looted the nation dry while Nigerians cried.

(5) Finally, Buhari could be the man that God could use to finally cement Nigeria’s bond of unity by handing over to an Igbo-Nigerian president after his tenure in office whether 4 or 8yrs. Like the Elder statesman Yakubu Gowon said, electing an Igbo president would heal the old wounds of the civil war. Buhari’s name will be written in gold both in the hearts of the Igbos if he can be the instrument to achieving Igbo presidency in this country. If Buhari, being a Fulani from the North can transfer presidential power to the Igbos after him then he will be like the hinge holding Nigeria together.

A WORD FOR THE SE

I want to thank my geopolitical zone the SE for standing with Jonathan till the end. Yes, he lost the election but we have made a bold statement that we can stand with you till death when we give you our word. There was immense pressure to abandon the minority Ijaw man and join the majority but we refused and stood with the minority till the very end. We must however join hands with the new president to move this great nation forward. Personally, I have concluded that Nigeria has come to stay since we have survived this 2015 presidential election. Let us also build good bridges with other geopolitical zones so that we can produce Nigeria’s president after Buhari. No zone can produce the president alone in this country; you need the support of at least four zones to produce the president!

Let us also eschew bitterness and drop all these talk about Biafra; we are Nigerians and we have everything to gain in this country if we can play our game well.


A WORD FOR THE NIGER DELTA

Thank God we can now say that Nigeria has produced a president for the first time from the minority in the person of Goodluck Jonathan who is about to leave office. I can understand the pain/anger because of the outcome of this election but the truth is that what has happened is the will of God for Nigeria; I see the finger of God in all these. This is Buhari’s time to rule this country; he is a man of destiny. He has come just at the right time to save this country from gliding into abyss.

Stop calling the Yorubas traitors and all that. Remember that the Yorubas overwhelmingly voted for your son in 2011 and rejected this same buhari. Check the figures and see that buhari was soundly rejected by the Yorubas in 2011. All Nigerians believed that Jonathyan would be a Messiah that would come and turn things around in this country; this was a man who had no shoes to go to school, who was from a poor background. Nigerians voted massively for him only to be so disappointed that he has not been able to make their lives better. Things are much more difficult for Nigerians now than when Jonathan took over. This is the reason why the Yourubas have rejected Jonathan this time. It is not out of hatred or gang-up but because he has not performed well! Same story about most of the MB and that is why Jonathan lost the MB. Nigerians never had it this bad, state Governors are owing salaries for months, people are hungry, unable to pay school fees and unable to meet their basic human needs.

How foolish can a Government be? Imagine someone that wants to come for a second term and civil servants were not paid their December salaries to celebrate Christmas! This is just unbelievable! It was in December last year that I began to question this Government in my mind but I still continued my relentless support on Nairaland for Jonathan. I saw my relatives who were Civil Servants going hungry during the Christmas celebrations, some could not even purchase new clothes for their kid, how painful!

As for me, I will do my very best in my own little capacity to support Buhari in changing this country for good. If things should continue the way they were going under Jonathan I wonder what the future of our children would be to be honest. It is God that has pushed out Jonathan not Nigerians because of all the prayers and crying that has gone up to him.

Let me also use this medium to appeal to all reasonable Yorubas on Nairaland to prevail on their people to stop opening funny threads about Igbo this Igbo that just because Jonathan lost. The APC people should stop opening threads to tell other Nigerians ‘Ntorrr’, we should move away from such pettiness and mediocrity.


A WORD TO THE CORE NORTH

And to the core North, let this election be a lesson and a reference point. A southerner sitting as president presided over his own defeat, accepted the results and went ahead to congratulate the winner from the north. In 2011 when Jonathan defeated Buhari, he refused to concede defeat but shouted that the election was rigged when we all know that he was defeated by Jonathan then. Nobody is burning tyres on the road in the South, nobody is burning Mosques, nobody is burning houses/cars and nobody is going about killing Northerners. Should the Northerners lose elections in future we expect them to accept the results and not disturb the peace. Jonathan has set a very good precedent not only for Nigeria but Africa.

VERY FRANK AND INDEPT ANALYSIS AND SHOULD BE THE WAY NIGERIA SHOULD GO FOR ALL NIGERIANS...WELL WRITTEN IN THE SPIRIT OF TRUE NIGERIA.[color=#000099][/color]
