Mogidi:
Is Lagos state no longer an APC state? Is Fashola no longer the "poster" boy of APC governance? Where is that Fashola factor to bring people to the stadium.

Lagosians are no longer ready for APC bulls*it, this was a thumbs down statement by Lagosians.

Check out their presidential itinerary below.

@atlwireles thanks for unearthing this gold.

It is just a guide, some states have been missed. Edo state, Ekiti, Ondo and Lagos states.

Story for the gods

Na your wahala na.

I just tuned in to LTV, on DSTV, the rally is being showed at the moment, it was tagged "APC IKEJA Mega Rally".

Tinubu addressing the crowd, and expressing the fact that he he is happy that Fashola has performed better than him, hallmark of a true leader.

Some people having too much high hopes for GEJ in SW, forgetting that in 2011, with massive support and goodwill, he only had 58% of SW votes, what do you think will happen in 2015 ?

Presidential rally of APC will surely be more massive than gubernatorial.

The only state PDP can win in SW presidential ballot is Ekiti state.


Lagos 60%, Ogun 75% Oyo 65% Ondo 55% Osun 70% Ekiti 40% for APC. Overall 65% SW for APC

eaglechild:
Osun people, as you gather listen to the person chosen by APC.

Listen carefully and ask yourselves if someone who is as incoherent as Buhari is what Nigeria needs.


Someone who has no democratic ideology.

A serial failure that has refused to accept defeat.

He wants to fight corruption but cannot even pronounce the word.

Why are you bothered about his speech coherence. Moses the isrealite too could not speak too well, based on such weakness, he disqualified himself in being eligible to lead the isrealites, but God choose him, and gave him an Aaron.

This same old man wants to come back to continue from where he stopped. The achievements of the Ajimobi led government thrumps whatever the Pilferer did during his tenure.

Missy89:
Whenever Buhari is about to speak. APC fans are like :

.

Public speaking is not his strong point. kai.

Well, Moses was also a stutterer who almost rejected the liberation assignment because of the speaking weakness, but God gave him an Aaron.

What Buhari lacks, Osinbajo has.

I have heard this like ten times now, yet nothing to show.

. this was in 2011

Ekiti barely count jare. The total votes is that of Alimosho local govt in Lagos.

The moment, it can be guaranteed that GMB will secure 50% from the NC region, there is no way the election will be too close to call. All in all, i am certain of a Buhari win.

GMB 65% (sw), 10%(se) 15%(ss) 85%(nw) 75%(ne) 55%(nc).

While i can predict for the 5 other regions with close to certainty , i am a bit unsure of the NC/fct.

The level of PVC collection across regions gives a good view of possible voters turn out.

Even GEJ might lose without putting SW votes in contention

grab the snake close to the head and throw in to the water, position my self properly on the tree, the crocs will get tired of awaiting meal, and leave sooner. The lion can not climb a tree. chikena. I will sleep on the tree, till lion finds another prey.

HzRF:
they invoke FOI law ...the same law no APC state has domesticated... yet they were sponsored... sponsored GMB to oluwole now

Ignorance !

ACN/APC rep. in the person of Abike Dabiri sponsored the FOI bill. Ekiti state was the first state to domesticate FOI.
Write another ignorant filled statement

Baba419:
Don't trust a politician or a beautiful lady and now you combine the two under PDP

Haha !!!! she says "lets do it" ......... Oya now.

By going to court now, PDP has already conceded defeat ,and knows it will not win on Feb. 14. if the PDP was so sure, it would have waited still after election.

He is getting really confused, and i understand the frustration.

Things are looking really bad for GEJ in SW. the sampling population i asked today in Ib, none was for GEJ .

One even told me, he will only be voting on presidential election day..... Haha.

I had earlier predicted 35% for GEJ in sw, but i now doubt if he can get 35%.

Buhari and the top crew in APC needs to beef up security, the next 33days will be tough. The PDP will not go down just like that, they will throw in all the dice, and can do the worst.

He is surrounded by ideological intellectuals. Dazall#

Lobatan.

@OP, Offcourse, all over the world, opposition uses the failure of the incumbent as a campaign issue. Get use to an opposition to the centre, start learning the role now, you will need it as from may 29, 2015.

You are a nonentity, a body has taken a step to ask the military board to provide his certificates, daz all.

Muhammadu Buhari’s ‘unknown’ story, as not many Nigerians are familiar with the book written by Rosaline Odeh, the then Head of Research and Documentation Section, Federal Department of Information, in May 1984.

The book, Muhammadu Buhari: Nigeria’s Seventh Head of State, was published by the Federal Department of Information, Domestic Publicity Division, Ikoyi Road, Lagos. It is in seven chapters of 95 pages, and details the early life, educational qualifications, career, and thoughts of the then head of state.

Chapter 1 is on parentage and background of the Daura, Katsina State-born retired military officer and politician. He was the 13th and last child of his mother, and also the last of his father’s 23 children.

Gen. Buhari’s father was Hardo Adamu, a Fulani chief of Dumukorl, a village near Daura. He, however, died when the young Muhammadu was just four years old. All he can remember of him is that “he was tall and fair in complexion.” The young boy ended being brought up by his mother, Hajia Zulaihalu Musa, who had great influence on him.

Chapter 2 is on Buhari’s childhood and early education. This is the portion that, perhaps, unravels the current raging debate on his academic credentials.

At the age of six, the book says, General Buhari was enrolled at the Central Primary School, Daura. His nephew, Mamman, who is two and a half years older, says of the young pupil: “He was above average academically and more than usual naughty.” Buhari himself corroborated: “I was a truant in primary school. I spent a lot of my time playing around. But when I went to secondary school, I changed.”

Classmates at Daura Primary School remember Buhari as a fast runner and centre forward for the school football team. He was always neatly dressed. He was to finish primary education in 1955 at Kankia Primary School.

In 1956, he proceeded to the Katsina Provisional Secondary School (now Government College, Katsina. According to his schoolmates, he had then become “a serious and hardworking student who tried to excel in everything he did.” Deeply religious, he said his prayers regularly, and was among those who made prayer calls at 4:30a.m.

Who were some of Buhari’s classmates, and what did they say of him?

General Shehu Musa Yar’Adua (now deceased): “He worked fairly hard at his studies and games. He was reserved. He was one of the few boys in the school trusted by his classmates, and was quite dependable.”

Alhaji Fathu Abdullahi: "He made a lot of friends from outside his Daura group. He was very broadminded. Very serious for his age and had no time for frivolous talks. He was very religious, even at the age of 12.”

Mallam Muktari, Zango: “He used to baffle me. He was so strong-willed and principled. He always stood his ground and did not follow the crowd.”

Buhari was a school monitor in Class 2, later a school prefect, a house captain, and ultimately he was made the head boy of the school.

According to the book, of all the boys who applied to join the Army from Katsina Secondary School, only two were taken. Muhammadu Buhari and Shehu Yar’Adua. They both ended up as Generals.

Chapter 3 is on Buhari’s military career, which he started at Nigerian Military Training College, Katsina, in 1962. He then went to the Young Officers Course No. 5 at the Nigerian Military Training College, Kaduna, from May 1963 to July 1963, Mons Officers Cadet School, Aldershot, in the United Kingdom, and he was commissioned in the rank of Second Lieutenant and posted to 2nd Infantry Battalion in Abeokuta as a Platoon Commander.

What are some of the other courses Buhari attended? According to the book, he was at the Army Mechanical Transport Officer’s Course in Bordon, United Kingdom from May 1965 to June of the same year, Defence Services Staff College, Wellington, India, from January to November 1973, and Army War College, U.S.A, from July 1979 to July 1980.
During the Nigerian Civil War, he was the Brigade Major of the 3rd Infantry Brigade, and Commander, 31st Infantry Brigade.

Chapter 4 is titled ‘Food for Thought,’ and it chronicles Gen Buhari’s views on different national and international issues. It also dwells on his private life and family

‘Landmarks Along the Way’ is the title of Chapter 5. It details Buhari’s footprints on the sands of time: as governor, minister, a member of the Supreme Military Council (SMC), General Officer Commanding (GOC), and call to duty as head of state.

Chapter 6 is on ‘A Journey Into the Past.’ What are readers served here? The influences on Buhari’s early life that made him what he became, particularly as a modest, self-effacing man. Hear his comment on leadership: “If there is anything we need in this country, it is leadership, and I also think, if there is anything we have in this country, they are good soldiers. If you stay with your men, and train with them, they will follow you. Much will be accomplished. If you stay with them and train with them, they will do anything.”

And his philosophy? “You will never succeed if you are unjust to your people.”

The final chapter: ‘Moment of Decision.’ Here, readers will get the appraisal and comments of people on Buhari. They include Dr Onolapo Soleye, his Minister of Finance, the Emir of Daura, Gen Musa Yar’Adua, Alhaji Mamman Daura, Gen Martin Adamu, and many others. Adamu, who was Buhari’s Commander during the civil war, said: “I am saying with all sense of responsibility. I don’t think he is an ambitious man. He feels strongly about Nigeria as a country. Given the support of the Armed Forces and the public, there is no reason he should not succeed. This time is the last chance for Nigeria’s survival and territorial integrity. I believe everything he said in his first speech.”

GMB is really giving PDP sleepless Night..

May the eyes of coward never sleep..
#SaiBuhari

I remembered reading the book, cant really lay my hands on it. It should be somewhere in my parents house. It was written a long time ago

40 days ke?

The attire on Amaechi / and the stadium is that of Rivers campaign. Spin another lie .

harde2lah:
This will only work if the party agents are not sellouts. I fear that some of the party agents may compromise. I have witnessed this before in Bayelsa.

you are very right, the agents needs to be put under scrutiny before being appointed

the rougly 35,000 polling units agents in the SS / SE need this , the two regions are the most vulnerable.

pazienza:
I re registered in 2014 at Enugu,and got a laminated voters card . In 2011, i registered in Abia.

What you collected is not a PVC, you need the plastic card to vote, return the laminated card to your LGA of registration and collect your PVC, the opportunity for such closes by Jan. 31

yes keepon justifying the fact that obasanjo squanderd $16 billion on a fantome electricity project the money was spent just to change from NEPA to PHCN and the rest was used in buying shekpe for you to drink and talk complete rubbish. which 4000 megawatts are you talking about? THEIVES

I thought you will make any point to justify why GEJ must come back. Obasanjo was a failure, GEJ is a massive failure.

2007-2015 more billions of dollars have been spent, how many extra megawatts has been generated?

Marilyn has a very wicked heart, my sympathies with her soul.

Very ridiculous being.
