............You look at Jonathan and you can see deception on display. You look at Jonathan and you can see green snake under the green grass. You look at Jonathan you can see a man full of deceit......................

........... He(Jonathan) is the one behind this Boko Haram menace for political reason. [size=20pt]According to General Sani Abacha,[/size] "no insurgency in a country is planned to last a month. If it lasts a month, the head of the government of that country is behind it," i.e government has the means and power to crush any insurgency that springs up in a short period of time the insurgency starts but if it continues unchecked, the government is behind it for its own gain.

..........It is on records that Jonathan visited the creeks without security on many occasion as Deputy Governor and Governor of Bayelsa State. He also visited the creek during Yar'Adua administration few times without security details.


.....The man (Jonathan) has never fulfilled any promise or agreement with anyone in his life. How do you trust a man with a wife at home who has four children from four other women?................
........... A desperate man always make stupid mistakes..........

......When it is all said and done, Obasanjo must take the blame for this mess.

barcanista:
We keep reading and listening to rhetorics yet Nigerians are still suffering with economy shattered. We don't just want to hear stories, we need to feel it and experience it. We can only do that under Muhammadu Buhari's administration. Jonathan is a clueless failure

9jatriot:
I wondered why there was so much desperation until I read this.

halimat38:
why would anyone think his in support of the bokos ,really don't think so it's a shame to the rest of the world that the shit went down like that,chad don't have crude oil but they have better equipped army all my country people do is destroy and steal all our money i live in California I have one of the politician coming visit cos of this i went to sandiego police department to make appointment just for him to get a tour on just to see what one part of our city police have ,guys you all need to stop all these nonsense talk saying buhari is in support please it just don't add up,don't believe

obamartins:
Its clear GEJ has his short-comings but he is light years ahead of GMB. GMB is not the change we want.

genearts:
And Buhari will just fold his hand and watch while the militants hold the country to ransom abi. My dear not everyone is irresponsible like ur jona

Where were the Niger Deltans when the North financed & developed the Oil Explorations in the Niger Delta with the proceeds from the following regions:

1.) Cotton & Groundnuts from the North.

2.) Cocoa from the West.

3.) Rubber, Palm Oil, Palm Kernel & Timber from the Midwest.

4.) Palm Oil from the East

There is no gainsaying that the present day Oil Industry was developed by the North.[/s]

LRNZH:
Maybe na only you want fight o...

You're making a gross miscalculation here this boy.

The militants have stuffed their pockets and have too much to lose. These are multi billionaires. None of them has the appetite for a sustained guerilla warfare.
Even the average Nigerian from the Niger Delta views those militants with scorn because of the chop alone syndrome.

A few skirmishes here and there, and capiche. Watch how things will unravel. Go and ask.

simdam500:
I thought bout this late last year...

But then I said to myself...






Nigerians must have been jazzed or something

Splashme:
When I corrected some group of men at a newspaper stand they looked at me as the ignorant one.

It was then I knew most Nigerians read and swallow every junk they see on APC media

How bad the tin dey pain you? Anger, bitterness, pain, agony and sorrow is bad for your existence...

MAYOWAAK:
Looking at the bigger picture; a Buhari Presidency may end up being a prescription that would produce more grievous ailments:
The Niger Delta and other parts of Nigeria would simply become the new theatre of strife, as is expected, while Buhari can manage the visible BH menace, he would by the same token be in a disadvantaged position to manage the latent but ever-present Niger Delta Militancy.
If Gen Buhari is elected President, successfully appeasing or gaining Boko Haram complimentary cessation of activities could be possible (though the chances are very narrow)
On the other hand, a Buhari President, all things being equal, could have grievous implications for Nigeria; there is a very high probability of a resurgence of hostilities by Niger Delta Militants
The terrible edge the Niger Delta militants have is that they hold Energy Resources and the Economy as tools of bargain………..very important tools needed to finance a war, gain sympathy and international friends and alliances!

FreeGlobe:
Between Fashola and Rochas, I can't tell the biggest clown of the two but the problem is Fashola is a SAN unlike Rochas

uchennamani:
There is nothing so bad, so misleading and so naïve than when an ignorant person purports to make an argument out of an issue that is beyond his level of reasoning. This is what the O.P just did with his post on the number of years GEJ has spent in office. We can always forgive him because of one thing- his was plainly ignorant as he couldn't grasp the gist of his assertion. The presidency is an institution in NIgeria. In fact it is the foremost executive institution in the country. Our constitution stipulates that the president is the leader of the executive arm of government which is also reffered to as the presidency. The relevant sections of the constitution also did stipulates that the vice president should act on the absense of the president or any other time he couldn't perform his official duties. The verb 'act' needs a little clarification here as it is misleading when subjected to its everyday uses. Acting, therefore, within the context of our constitution simply means whenever the president for some reasons couldn't perform his official duties. The acts of the acting president is legally valid as he is now the leader of the presidency which is the foremost executive body in the country. The bills he signed into power are seen as the laws of the country even when the president resumed his duties later on. But in our case, the late yaradua never did. GEJ was quickly sworn in as the president and picked Sambo when yaradua died. He stayed in office till the last general election was conducted which he won convincingly to become the president. In summary, GEJ has spent more than four years in office so 0P learn how to get your facts before you run and post unintelligent post on a public forum like this.

As you said the most recent development, but why can't you be reasonable, the pictures and the article I posted weren't as you described "foolish" nor was I "peddling" lies. As stupid as you sound I won't insult you. What I read on the link was that they had hit a snag, and China is gonna bid for the rail way stuff. That being said why didn't it occur to you that the high speed trains are still going to be constructed. Better a well established, meticulously done rail line that will take some time to finish than a mediocre, shoddy job for election campaigning. Whoever you are please grow up, whatever religion you practice, you are soiling its name. You think you can just be insulting people.By the way, #Nigeriamustwin not GMB or GEJ

Toongexa:
The mediocre rail lines you mean. Nigeria and Mexico approached China for credit facility to rebuild their railway systems (and other infrastructure). They both got the credits.
Look at what each country did with the money.
When do we stop celebrating mediocrity?

doctokwus:
Anything harm that befalls the remaining patriot Ibos in the north should be laid firmly on the doorsteps of the ohaneze and those other non partisan groups and elites who instead of preaching free fair elections and encouraging Ibos to vote their personal choices,decided to come out openly in support of Jonathan!
They have put those Ibos in the north in unnecessary danger when they cud conveniently at worse have publicly come put to say every Ibos has the individual right to vote his/her conscience and not who these groups endorsed.

Dunno if I should call this epistle rubbish, hogwash, nonsense, hocus-pocus or balderdash!

HugeMac:
"It's May 29th 2015. The North is aflame with
celebration. So too the S-west. There is a mourning spirit
pervading the S-East and S-South and parts of North
Central. Except for the efulefu circles celebrating...
Gen. Buhari is being sworn in as president, Fed Rep of
Nigerian.
* Buhari, upon assumption of power announces a major
probe into MDAs since 1999. Massive jubilations rent the
North, and SW. With efulefus too...
* Buhari sacks all services chiefs and security heads.
Replaces all with mostly Hausa-Fulani folks. The North
hail endlessly. The SW hails too, but in a lower tone. The
SS/SE are silent, save for the efulefus among them
celebrating cautiously...
* Buhari orders immediate relocation of all amouries in
the South back to the North, calling Obj and GEJ
"outlaws" for moving amouries away from the North.
Jubilation in the North, SW jubilate half heartly...efulefus
celebrate nervously...
* Buhari declares war on corruption. Reverses the
privatization of PHCN, claiming it was fraudulently sold
off. North roars in joy, SW murmur, efulefus smile about
nervously...
* Buhari cancels second Niger bridge project, citing it as
one of Jonathan's corruption based projects. North
explodes in joy, SW scratch their heads, SE/SW mourn
deeply, efulefus now confused.
* Buhari suspends all upgrade work at Calabar/Onne
seaports, citing corruption in the award of the contracts
and also that the ports are a conduit for insurgents to
bring in arms into the N-Delta. Now the efulefus begin to
grumble silently...the North rejoices...
* Fulani herdsmen kill thousands in night raids in the N
central. Christian militias retaliate at once. Buhari orders
a nation-wide revocation of all firearms licenses, sends
soldiers and police on door to door search for firearms,
whether licensed or not...Observersnote these raids are
all in the N central and Southern Nigeria.
* Reports of silent killings,esp of opposition politicians
keep coming in. The Buhari led FG denies complicity.
There is terror and deep fear in the land. Anti govt
activists and groups begin to mobilize against the
tyrannical govt.
* AIT,STV and Channelstv shut down by the Buhari led
govt for "instigating crisis" in the polity. The media
houses proceed to court, the court orders their
reopening at once, Buhari ignores the court orders.
* 2016 population census is done: Kano alone gets a
population of 35m, all the S-east states put together get
barely 36m. The SW states plus Lagos get barely 45m.
The day begins to break for the efulefus..
* Buhari bans the use of FaceBook and twitter in Nigeria.
Prescribes harsh jail terms of an IP is traced to any social
media site. Quarrels and disagreements spark off
between Osibanjo and Buhari. Hundreds of young
people are hauled into jail for Facebooking.
* MEND attacks oil pipelines, crippling oil production.
Buhari orders thousands of troops to crush them. Bitter
fighting breaks out in the N-Delta, leaders of the N-Delta
movement are arrested and executed without trial. Now
the SWest is silent...efulefus nowhere to be found...
* Buhari announces a major slash in Fed allocation to
states, citing the war in the N-Delta. Nigerians are furious
with the excruciating hard times, the FG explains that the
monumental damage done to the economy by decades
of military rule plus 16 years of PDP misrule cannot be
fixed in 4 years. Now the generality of Nigerians are
swallowing hard....
* IBB, GEJ, OBJ etc all rally together to form a common
front against Buhari's govt. Tinubu falls out with Buhari
and joins in the coalition. Buhari orders their arrest and
slams them into detention. Their lawyers proceed to
court to secure the freedom. All the court orders are
damned by the Buhari led govt.
* 2019 elections approach. More reports of silent
killings. The opposition parties are too afraid to
campaign or field a candidate against Buhari. Tinubu
charges NADECO to fight on hard against the
dictatorship of Buhari as they "gallantly" did against
Abacha. The S-East and S-South laugh at him, asking him
to go and tame the monster he unleashed from chain
unto Nigerians himself.
* 90% of the political parties adopt Buhari as their
candidate. All opposition leaders have fled the country,
some missing. Militants in the N-delta step up
operations, routing the army and advancing
Northwards. Thousands of volunteers join them, along
with other militant groups to push Buhari's forces off the
region.
* Buhari suspends Nollywood, declaring them a "source
of immorality"...Nigerians now are too afraid to resist.
Many journalists are arrested and detained for writing
against the govt.
* Brazil and Israel announce their support for the groups
fighting the FG. They provide support and logistics. Now
the FG gets real jittery. Inflation spirals out of control,
over 25m people displaced by the bitter fighting.
Looting, rape and robbery by both citizens and military
personnel become very high.
* A major mutiny occurs within the armed forces. A
nation-wide state of emergency is declared. Rumours of
the death of some past presidents in detention filters
out. A nation-wide state of emergency is declared. No
more elections. Year after year, the state of emergency
on the nation is maintained. The system grinds to a halt.
Buhari. Is accused of refusiing to lift the emergency state
so as to foist himself as president for life.
* The SE and SS declare independence from Nigeria. 14
nations recognize them. The FG calls it illegality of the
highest order...
* North Central declares independence.
* The FG calls for meeting of all "aggrieved regions" to
reconcile. None is interested.
Well, well peeps, welcome to my imagination! Do you
think these events lack bizarre possibilities? Personally, I
don't believe Nigerians have so offended the Universe to
deserve this.
So we can only avoid such scenarios by not bringing
such unto ourselves via our choices.
Think well, vote wisely...Peace.

vioment:
One man one vote anything else na cheating. With that said this talk sound like parables. I just believe that after 4years Gen. Buhari and his administration can look back and say he tried for electrification, security, and some other major infrastructure, I can't say the same for Mr johnatan. All those agriculture yarns and all those accomplishment wey person no dey see no make sense to me without affordable and steady power supply. Nigeria's problem go pass 20years to solve but this guy just laff laff play play six years like that. To come add insult to injury he come be ijaw wey me and them no fit see eye to eye as to per say their level never reach and e no go reach. Am not a bigot but Ijaw militants kill my very good friend wey happen to get job wey e qualify for inside oil company. And presido still open mouth say them no be terrorist on top of that say e know them. At the end of the day, bygone na bygone RIP bro. Gen. Buhari never open mouth defend boko devils. And all these yarns aside, Gen. Buhari qualify interms of integrity pass the guy. Presido na humble guy wey I go forever respect him humility but truth be told no be hin birthrite to president of a whole Nigeria for 10years like that.
So feb. 14 2015 ni ike Chukwu, me one go thumb am for Gen. Buhari. And I hope say e win.

SHOPPERS:
Business researchers are welcome on board as we together dissect the problem of epileptic power supply in Nigeria despite the huge amount of money being spent on it.

Questions here for discussion
1. According to statistics, Nigeria needs only 12000 MW of electricity but we are only producing 4000MW. First, is the 12000MW the total required to power the whole nation including all the villages, industries and plants all across the nation? Or is it just an estimate of what we consume based on current tranmission to connected. I'm expecting that the amount is too little if we are actually moving towards the vision 2020. We should hoping for up to 40000MW like South Africa is currently having. I won't mind and I believe other Nigerians too won't mind if the Chinese feat of a 60000MW is in place in my dear country.

2. Electricity generation on a mass level is mostly done using Turbines through the use of Dams. Is it that Nigeria does not have a large enough dam to generate all our power supply or we are just lazy. Ethiopia will soon be generating 6000MW of electricity through a dam to be constructed on the blue Nile, with a budget of about 6.4B dollars. You can confirm that here http://unbonmotgroundswell..de/2013/06/a-possible-technical-solution-involving.html . China finished their own 22500mw capacity dam spending only 25billion dollars on it. You can confirm that here http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Gorges_Dam . Can we build a new dam too, if so, where, for how much and within how many years? China spent close to 20 years on the project so I know that all what APC guys are talking about bringing huge transformation and that we will have light in few years is an unfounded fact.

3. A further research got me to the discovery that hydroelectric power using dams is not the best. In fact, the world is going against what Ethiopia is trying to do. http://www.internationalrivers.org/blogs/229/can-ethiopia-afford-the-grand-renaissance-dam . If not Hydroelectric power, then what?

4. We can build micro hydro power generators all across the nation. It only costs about $20000 per one at most. Confirm that here http://www.alternative-energy-news.info/micro-hydro-power-pros-and-cons/ . Why is the government not yet looking into this?

5. Just now during my research into this problem, I discovered that NigeriA has more than enough power stations to alleviate our power problems. Please read the list below carefully and add up the full running capacities of each. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_power_stations_in_Nigeria .

I'm sure it'll answer most of the questions above. What I'm still asking is, WHAT DAHELL IS WRONG! When we have power stations which are capable of giving us well over 15000mw of power at full capacity. A lot of the new ones are not yet operational, those operational ones are functioning at partial Capacity.

Please, help me wake up the minister in charge, the president and other concerned individuals.

We have more than enough! There must be something wrong somewhere.

GARRIx7:
Amen ooooo..

Firefire:
In the days leading to 2015 election, many unfounded news and propaganda would emerge.

Many will tell unverified lies. Falsification, caricature and propaganda shall be on the increase.

Watch that you are not deceived.

If you need any clarification consult your subconscious mind.

Peace!

Obiagelli:
Thunder fire your lies, how many megawatts did we generate in 1999, how many did gej meet there, how many are we generating today. Simple google search

nduchucks:
No sane leader will make such a protest in secret. That's another sign of cluelessness and lack of leadership.

Your country was invaded by a foreign country (essentially an act of war) and the President does not condemn the act publicly or demand an apology - what signal does that send to other countries?

Do you know if its a bilateral operation between Chad and Nigeria?

Fool!

Ihovbor is 450MW and there are about 6 other power stations going on.

Ihovbor and geregu alone are 1000MW, talkless of trans amadi. Calabar, omotosho, etc

It's people like u that burst the gas pipelines to stop full capacity generation from these gas plants.
