Let me address one issue here GEJ was not pelted because the youth don't like the PDP that have been given them money to share but they are afraid that if GEJ survive would they still get the peel not? the average northerner opposing GEJ is not because he would not perform but they needed the power by fire by false, people should get that into there head.

How would Buhare or Ribadu win an election ?

with the vote gotten from the north and west where is the south south and south east vote?

Dear Righton,

PoliticsAs Battle For North's Vote's Intensifies, Jonathan Panic by gernded(op): 12:39am On Mar 12, 2011
[b]Barely four weeks to the general elections, President Goodluck Jonathan has taken measures to win over influential political leaders in the North, with the view to garnering support in the zone. Sources revealed that jolted by the massive turnout in campaign rallies of former head of state and Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, in the North, the Jonathan camp has intensified efforts to get the support of influential northerners, who are expected to help it win over voters from the zone.

Saturday Sun gathered that one of the northern leaders the Jonathan camp has made efforts to win over is ex-military president, General Ibrahim Babangida, who worked against him before the presidential primary election of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Checks revealed that Jonathan reckons that an open endorsement or secret support from Babangida would sway voters in the zone for him. In this regard, the president has made contacts with the retired soldiers and asked for support.

In making the move, sources said, Jonathan was buoyed by Babangida’s show of sportsmanship when he congratulated him after he emerged winner of the PDP presidential ticket. The president’s camp believes that if Babangida could acknowledge Jonathan’s victory at the PDP primary election, he could as well support him for the election proper.

The president, sources revealed, acknowledged Babangida’s clout in the North and has therefore, concluded that he would be of immense assistance, if he agree to support Jonathan. The Jonathan camp, in analysing the outcome of the PDP presidential primary election, believes that Babangida was instrumental to support ex-vice president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, got from delegates from Zamfara, Niger, Kano, Sokoto and Kebbi states, at the PDP primaries. With such clout, the Jonathan camp believes that Babangida has the capacity to talk to northerners to support the president and they would oblige.

The president, it was learnt, needs Babangida’s support because it believes that only him would whittle Buhari’s following in the North East and North West and by so doing giving the president easily victory in next month’s election.

Saturday Sun learnt that to get Babangida’s confidence, Jonathan has, in their various discussions, reiterated his desire to bow out of office in 2015, after serving four years. However, the issue that seems to delay Babangida’s decision on the president’s request is the non-commitment for the North to produce the president in 2015.

Source said that although Babangida is favourably disposed to supporting Jonathan, in the interest of peace an stability, the former head of state appears to doubt the president’s ability to keep to his promise of not vying for a second term in 2015. It was gathered that Babangida wants a firm commitment from Jonathan that no matter the pressure or temptation, he would not renege on his promise to quit in 2015. Also, the former president’s camp wants a commitment from Jonathan that by 2015 a northerner would occupy Aso Rock.

Checks revealed that Jonathan has already made promises on the demands, believing that this would make his victory at the poll easier. Some of his aides, it was gathered, see nothing wrong in power returning to the North in 2015, arguing that northerners were part of the struggle for the president to get PDP ticket.

Sources revealed that as soon as Babangida is sure that Jonathan would not renege on his promises, he would support his candidature. It was, however, gathered that the former president’s children prefer Jonathan, as president, to other presidential candidates. Already, Babangiga’s son-in, Governor Shinkafi of Zamfara State, is working for Jonathan. By extension, his wife, who’s Babangida’s daughter, is also in support of the president’s candidature. She is said to be impressing it on her brothers and sisters to do same.
Apart from Babangida, sources revealed, Jonathan is also wooing traditional rulers from the North. In any northern state the president goes for campaign, he visits emirs and other community leaders, where he solicits support.

Meanwhile, checks revealed that Jonathan has broken the ranks of northern political leaders, ahead of the general elections. Sources revealed that many top politicians in the North have backed down on their opposition to Jonathan’s candidature, believing that the battle is already lost.
A competent source told Saturday Sun that the success Jonathan has made in winning over some northern leaders accounts for the failure in the zone endorsing any of the presidential candidates from the zone (Buhari, Alhaji Ibrahim Shekarau of the All Nigeria Peoples Party and Mallam Nuhu Ribadu of the Action Congress of Nigeria) as consensus northern candidate.
A source close to the Jonathan camp, which confided in Saturday Sun, said that following promises northern leaders made to the president, Buhari’s feared stronghold in North West geopolitical zone has been eroded.

“Jonathan now has massive support in North West. The opposition is hoping that it would get block votes in the North and therefore, get an opportunity for run-off presidential election. But I can tell you that there will not be any run-off poll. The president will win in the first ballot. He will get impressive votes from the North East and North West. Already, there is no contention in North Central.”

PoliticsSss Moves Against Northern Elders by gernded(op): 10:06am On Mar 11, 2011
The scribe who has just been released, said his arrest was political, as it was in connection with his comments on zoning.
The NPLF in a terse reaction said the President was not ready for peace though the State Security Service, SSS, which picked the men said the arrests were unconnected with politics.
NPLF secretary, Mallam Abdulkadir Bello, was arrested, Wednesday, a day before the scheduled meeting of the body where the key decision of whether the NPLF should support the President or not was to have been taken.
Another operational staff, Mallam Bibi Farouk, was arrested while the meeting of the NPLF was going on.
Confirmation of Abdulkadir’s arrest
The State Security Services, SSS, which confirmed the arrest of Abdulkadir, however, said their arrest had nothing to do with politics. There were indeed inferences of a fifth columnist working to sabotage the envisaged reconciliation between the President and the NPLF.
Yesterday’s meeting which was ongoing at press time followed the arrival from abroad of former Vice-President Abubakar on Wednesday evening.
The meeting was believed to be deliberating on the work of the seven-man joint committee jointly constituted by the President and the NPLF to bridge differences between the two sides. Vanguard learnt that a communiqué of the meeting would be released today.
SSS spokesperson, Mrs. Marilyn Ogar, while admitting the arrest of the NPLF secretary, however, insisted that it had nothing to do with politics saying that membership of an organization was not a licence to carry out illegal activities.
She told Vanguard that Alhaji Abdulkadir was arrested as Alhaji Abdulkadir and that it had nothing to do with his position as Secretary of NPLF.
Ogar said: “Alhaji Abdulkadir was arrested as Alhaji Abdulkadir, not as Secretary of NPLF. People must not bring politics into this. Nobody should think that he will be allowed to do just whatever he likes because he is a member of any organization. It must be made very clear that this matter has nothing to with his position in the NPLF.”
She, nevertheless did not give the reason for the arrest.
The Ciroma-led NPLF had recently softened its denunciation of President Jonathan’s presidential aspiration and had met to take a decisive decision on whether or not to support the President.
The breakthrough followed the meeting early last month between President Jonathan and elements of the NPLF where it was resolved to set up a seven-man joint committee to articulate a working document to guide rapprochement between both sides.
The seven-man joint committee chaired by Magaji Dambatta was supposed to submit its report for the consideration of the President and the NPLF. NPLF sources, however, expressed regrets that possible reconciliation may have been put on hold with the arrest of the duo.
Sources said that Abdulkadir was arrested on Wednesday by operatives of the SSS in Abuja and taken to the headquarters of the security agency in the Asokoro area the same day. He was still being held by the SSS at press time yesterday.
Farouk was arrested while the meeting of the NPLF was on-going. It was, however, not confirmed whether he was arrested at the venue of the meeting.
Denouncing the arrest, yesterday, the NPLF in an unsigned statement made available to Vanguard said:
“This is in bad faith and tells a lie to President Goodluck Jonathan’s attempt for rapprochement with Northern Political Leaders Forum.”
PoliticsRe: NL Official Presidential Opinion Poll by gernded(m): 10:00am On Mar 11, 2011
Hello People,

I cannot understand why some people thinks that GEJ will lost an election, Now lets face the fact.
please disregard the opinion polls at the top of the forum is a hoax and misleading there are 1000 and 1 opinion polls on the net where GEJ emerges winners.

now talk of Corruption in the land how come about the corruption, which people introduce the corrupt systems and what does it take to clean it. Jonathan is still in his Otueke Village when the people who see themselves as chief makers crowned corruption in the Land.

If any person said that Buhari will win an election and GEJ will rig to win lets talk about the issue.
Where is the Block vote for Buhari?

Buhari you are talking about can only win some votes in the North west where Islamic is other of the day which he represent.

HE CANNOT GET ANY VOTE FROM THE EAST
HE CANNOT GET ANY VOTE FROM THE WEST
HE CANNOT GET ANY VOTE FROM THE SOUTH
HE CANNOT GET ANY VOTE FROM THE NORTH EAST
HE CANNOT GET ANY VOTE FROM THE CENTRAL
So can somebody tell me where the winning vote will come from?

Brothers and Sisters lets face the fact GEJ will win in a landslide .
