PoliticsRe: PDP Governors To Release Jonathan’s One-term Pact by iconaus: 12:59pm On Feb 18, 2013
BetaThings: All the refineries were built by people who achieved nothing
All the major bridges were built by them
new federal capital by them
All the pipelines were built by them
Most of the airports, federal universities etc

I don't like Obj but GEJ would not have achieved anything in the power sector without the electricity act of 2005 which allowed reforms
GEj is completing some NIPP projects started by another person
Somebody paid off debt, GEJ is borrowing. With the debt still hanging GEJ would have been seriously distracted by debt servicing
Some people are actually re not touch with global issues. Economic recession is current now. Even the so called developed countries re cryin go to uk, Spain, Greek even usa no jobs , their economies re nose diving not to talk of Nigeria where there is corruption. Gej cannot do magic. Those past leaders like obj what did they do even the time of oil boom . Make una go sit don jare . Tribalists

Can't you identify a failure when you see one?

I wonder how some touts get access to the internet!
Failure in 2 yrs ? what about other past leaders who ruled for 8yrs or more . What did they acheive ? nothing instead they created hydra headed problems for GEJ. Go rest jare!! Is all about ethnicity , regional interest . Statusquo is changing SW and North are not comfortable with that. As long as the core North is occupying the presidency , SW is fine with it since this arrangement keeps the South east at bay . Thats just Nigeria politic but now that statuoquo is changing hence the ACN and the APC and SW marginalisation whining

danny301: Some of u have allowed ethnic-ism to becloud ur senses of reasons and that have made you terribly bad Judges... Mind you, what they are talking here is PDP's internal politics and the pact that earned Jonathan northern support with which he defeated a Northern Candidate.... What's wrong if they people want GEJ to honor that pact that gave him the party's ticket ahead of others..... Mind you, politics is again of interest, hence no reasonable man or group will support you where their interest is not guaranteed and that is where negotiations and agreements come in..... GEJ did put gun the peoples head to secure their supports rather he negotiated with them which is what politics entail.... Am neither for the Northern Govs or for GEJ, but i like to say is that if GEJ, actually had such agreement them let him honor it, besides, even now i dont see GEJ winning PDP primaries without the same Northern Govs.
Honour wetin? just say u dont want GEj . He has to finish his second term . Is becuase Gej is from SS? If IBB or Obj is in the same shoe as Gej, will people be talking rubbish like this . This is a man that has just spent only 2 yrs in office . Obj was in office for 8 yrs without acheiving anything . This is all about ethnicity . Some ethnic groups are losing grip of Nigerian goodies - good positions,contracts etc which they have been enjoying for the past 45 yrs and therefore, they resort to character assasination of Gej personality, bombing , negative campaign to pull him down or make him look bad . it will not work . If Gej is stopped from having 2nd term , that ll be the end of Nigeria. Nigeria disintegration come 2015 has been predicted . All these developments are pointers to this prediction. If the north and SW still want one Nigeria, they should allow Gej to complete his 2 nd term . I am not from SS . Just trying to analyse the situation. Nigeria today is different from Nigeria of yestaday.

van bonattel: The major problem in Nigeria since independence has been only one, stop the Igbos at all costs!

This was the major objective of the whole of Nigeria that have kept this great nation on its knees, like the poster above, people are schooled to hate the enterprise of the progressive and unstoppable east. They invent blatant lies when they cannot see straws to grasp and feed themselves lies.

The igbo has become the target of this thread again, because people will now see Jonathan as Igbo just to give Igbo a bad name. But in truth the Igbos continue to dominate, ask Jamb or Wasc.

But from the way I look at this, it might not even be so, for the Igbo to have more university enrollees and still have more young men and women in the markets, even in the corporate world, the Igbos are also in large numbers, where are the rest of the country?
The census of this country should be recalculated abeg! Something is wrong somewhere.
O boy u nailled it . igbos are the majority in school as well as markets. I smell foul in nigeria census

Eziachi: AFCON has nothing to do with him or his luck. Super Eagle won by having a good manager, player selected based on merit and who are ready to leave their egos behind.
If there is such a thing as GEJ luck, what is stopping him using it to give Nigerians 24 hour power supply or does his luck only stop after football? And the last I checked, super eagle didn't even qualify last time, or was his luck on vacation last time?
senseless comment - who is running nigeria . - what ever made super eagles to win emanated from government transformation agenda; that transformation fisrt surfaces with Super eagles success while other will follow

mikeansy: If you do your research very well you will realise that the very civil war sentiments you want to talk about does not spare Jonathan either. The only true allies we had in that war were the Calabar people or the Ibibios. Forget all the silly talk about Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan, people still also remember the role played by the Ijaws in the war. And yes While people see the need to stand by Jonathan to reject any born to rule mentality from any region people know that we can not support Jonathan forever if he has proven in office to be dumb and weak.

Go arround the East and ask questions. The novelty of having a President Jonathan Goodluck from Bayelsa has since washed away and people are asking whether the President they elected is up to the job? The suggestion that in 2015 people will forget their pockets and their personal economy and vote for a President who has achieved nothing in the 5 to 6years he has been office is very disrespectful of Ndigbo. It just wont happen, if there is anything I can boast of as an Igbo man it is the ability for people in the East to think for themselevs and stand boldly for what they believe in against all odds. The idea that Jonathan will be re-elected in 2015 or supported in the East for the sake of it just wont fly with most people.
thats is ur opion . Gej against any core Northerner. Gej will still get 99.9% SE vote period!
PoliticsRe: Jonathan Signed An Agreement For One-Term - Aliyu by iconaus: 12:53pm On Feb 17, 2013
van bonattel: Tell yourself the truth, do you think any dead person from the SS, SE or NC will ever ever voter for a core notherner again? The people are desirous of change and will do anything to free themselves from this northern bondage.
Na tru my brother.Gej presidency is political game changer which has been destined . SS, SE and NC will never vote for a core northner - its over . If North and SW still want one Nigeria, they should allow Gej / south south to complete their 8 yrs period! otherwise nigeria will disintegrte or another war and this time the core north will lose because the NC that fought the civil war will back out , the SE will utilise the oportunity and settle the score once and for all and the SW who currently appears to be core North ally will cowardly break their friendship with the core north .

I am not worried about Yoruba and its survival but I am concerned about attack on igbos when ever Biafra is mentioned as if it does not make sense that disintegration is Imminent.How can we call ourself one when there is too much hatred and Jealousy amongst tribes? What does north have in common with east if not black colour . Sw have some thing in common with SE but there is too much hatred and jealous among the two so why remain together?
PoliticsRe: IBB: How To Avoid Nigeria’s Break-Up In 2015 by iconaus: 1:15pm On Feb 01, 2013
South west people who dont beleive that Nigeria is facing disintegration are now begining to see the signs following this remark .Lest just forget what you gain from the entity called Nigeria , the fact remains that Nigeria is not one . We play ethnic politics . See ACN which on its own symbolises regionalism / disintegration and you people continue to shout one nigeria . Igbos have since noted that the country is not one and was sincere and still sincere to agitate for for Biafra .The ealier the yorubas start preparing to exist independently the better for you people . Stop deceiving yourself in beleiving that Nigeria will continue to exist . Former leaders are nursing fears over Nigeria oneness which signals that something is in the offing.

This thread is slow quite unexpected . It appears that the truth has been told from the least expected person IBB . This is time for people to have a sober and inner reflection and tow the line of this remark by IBB . Mistakes have been made . Civil war was a mistake otherwise Nigeria would have progresssed and move forward . Nigeria has decayed and has fallen into abyss. IBB has vindicated ojukwu and people who detest injustice and marginalisation.
PoliticsRe: IBB: How To Avoid Nigeria’s Break-Up In 2015 by iconaus: 12:26pm On Feb 01, 2013
It is shame if nigeria disintegrate after the blood shed of civil war . Our former leaders IBB, OBJ etc know that Nigeria is not one and they pretended about it because of their selfish interest . Now they are out of power and entirely new and different entrant into Presidency GEJ exposes the vulnerability of nigeria to disintegrate simply because we re not one .And because some people beleive they own Nigeria . I have said in this forum and i ll say it again, If GEJ is buried or chased out of power with out completing his 2 terms and power goes back to North ; that will be the end of Nigeria . Niger delta will go and no military corridor for federal trops via the South east to attack South south and this time it is gona be a different war . The North and their alies SW will lose woefully .

babaolofin: Nairalanders,

Please, I have an important message for Pa Edwin Clark and President Jonathan. Somebody very close to Pa Clark should receive the answer and post it here for millions of Nigerians. I have nothing against Jonathan contesting 2015 election.

My question is this, Before the 2011 presidential elections when some Northern elders were demanding for the completion of their term, Papa Clark told Nigerians and particularly the Northern Elders that Jonathan should be supported and that he will only spend one term. He addressed a press conference on this. He also published this request on some major newspapers. When he changed his mind after Jonathan has spent almost 2 years in office, Papa is supposed to appeal for deceiving us before the election. I think this is not how to be an elder statesman. Is he indirectly calling those whose the appeal for a single term was targeted a fool?

With Papa Clark, I have stopped believing any old politician, even any politician no matter his age. I watched him on TV, I heard him on radio, I read a full page advertorial in newspapers before the PDP primaries of 2011 general elections where papa made this request. How come no appeal and no reason for changing his mind now that Jonathan has won and he is almost at the half of his 1st term. Papa, I will never believe you on anything again.

PLEASE SOMEBODY SHOULD PASS MY MESSAGE TO BABA. WE WANT ANSWER.
If he changes his mind and decides to exercise his constitutional right to contest due to the burying posture of the North and the SW and the BOKO , whats is wrong about that ? You want him to quit because u re a hater and hates where he comes from . U gonna fail
PoliticsRe: Clark - Jonathan Can Not Be Stopped In 2015 by iconaus: 11:13pm On Jan 30, 2013

He was just stating the fact and some myopic bigotry from the SW are saying he is drunk . The truth is always bitter . As far as many of us are concerned , GEJ has got a good heart and what we re experiencing now is real democracy after a long time . Can you compare OBJ with GEJ?

The man was saying the truth only that haters are in denial of the truth . GEJ deserves his 2 terms . This is south south turn or if GEJ is unable to contest; another person from SS will have to step in . This country is for all . not a section of a country . Dont understand why GEJ is being buried out of power .If PDP fields GEJ so be it . Power changed hands, the north and the south west are not comfortable with that hence they become too antagonistic to GEJ.
What about the SE and SS who has been out power for years ? For Nigeria to continue to be one , fairness and justice must be allowed to prevail . North and SW people due to hatred and tribalism failed to understand that SS is the source of Nigerian wealth -that humiliation of GEJ out of power will signal the genesis of disintegration of NIgeria - this is the fact and no military corridor from the South east for federal troops to attack SS. This is the time for the minority and the oppressed to rule Nigeria.It is God's given mandate
