Wizardofoz:
I totally understand!

She did her NCE at Adeyemi College of education, which I accept is true. But the notion that she actually completed her studies at Ife? I seriously doubt it.

The whole Idea that she went to ife surfaced during her senate run. It was well known in Lagos during Tinubu's era that she only had NCE certificate. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that, but to drop Mamora, a former Lagos-State speaker and MBBS holder from "Oba Awon University" for her, they had to justify that move; hence, the whole She went to ife crap!

Who were her classmates at Ife?

Tinubu replaced Mamora with Gbenga Ashafa not Remi Tinubu. Gbenga Ashafa was the man in charge of lands in Lagos and being prepped to take over as lagos state Governor come 2015 when the Epe axis is supposed to take over as Governor. that's the 2015 plan but I know Ikuforiji will fancy his chances against him.

Remi represents Lagos central.

For me these reps are the real heroes of democracy, they done kill zoning. Let me hear any tribalistic mumuistic Nigerian abusing them

I have to second the above.

I'm a Yoruba man but what did Ogun state or the Egbas get for Bankole being speaker? what did Benue get from Mark? What did we get from OBJ being president? what did Katsina get from Yar Adua, what will Bayelsa get from Jonathan?, The simple answer is nothing. They only benefit their families, cronies and hangers-on. It's time the NIgerian mumus realize that and dump this zoning nonsense and demand performance.

The zoning thing only benefits the occupier of the office who also whips up sentiments from his people when he's found wanting. e.g., They want to impeach our son who is the speaker for stealing money when their own son, the senate president is stealing and nothing is happening.

IG, Thanks for the explanation!

When you saw the stand off between EFCC Policemen and Bankole's Policemen, what did you do?

This is what I call Fresh AIR! but seriously if this statement is from the IG, we have to wonder how dumb you need to be to make it in Nigerian Police force. We better equip Boko Haram to collect our guns from Nigerian Policemen.

I guess these Boko Haram are being sponsored by Buhari. GEJ, please arrest Buhari and Bakare and this will end all our security issues especially in the north!

I hope Nigerians will be reasonable and start demanding that GEJ and his security goons earn their fat pay instead of protecting thieves!

Please what does this power plant run on? Is it Diesel or gas? If it's diesel, is there a plan to move to gas?

MShittu:
The PDP and other parties are beginning to see the ACN as a real threat.

Actually,I think this must be the handwork of the CPC supporters in Benue! CPC are the new villains. They probably killed him for not allowing the CPC/ACN alliance sail through!

On a more serious note, there's insecurity in the land and this Governement has not shown that they are up to the task. The excuse was he didn't want enemies, now elections are over and Mr Goodluck needs to start making enemies of those who hate NIGERIA.

where are the 1.4M voters that endorsed Jonathan?

where are the 1.4 million voters that voted for Jonathan? Did they burn thier voter's card?

The BB team has tried. Buhari and Bakare have put out their neck and also their money where their mouth is. The campaign is all about a vote for 2 honest men and a vote for change. If Nigerians don't believe in it, then there's little the BB team can do about it.
I said it long ago that Ribadu is the only one who thought he was contesting. For those of us who know a little about Tinubu, we knew he was going to sacrifice Ribadu and go with GEJ.
By not aligning with CPC, he knows it's PDP that will profit and they are just grandstanding about Ribadu still being in the race.

My prayer is that NIgerians will stay on the side of change come Saturday and free ourselves from shackles. The BB team is the only one without Godfathers and only the people can claim to have installed them if they win.

Buhari is crying because of what Nigerians have had to pass through
---Many of you shouting GEJ here will be looking for visas at all cost very soon becos nothing works here
some of you will not be able to get your sons/brothers/sisters into university and if they do they may never find a job yet you shout GEJ
I'm supporting BUhari but it's not do or die as long as we all have the best interest for Nigeria.

I will be the happiest if in 1 or 2 years, Beaf starts a thread to tell us of how GEJ has been amazing as President and we can all attest to (not the questionable success of the last 12 months that people are alluding to).

I still can't get over the fact that a President was ready to receive endorsement from Okada riders association many of whom are GRADUATES as GEJ was told that day!

It will be a shame however if GEJ wins, releases his list of ministers and we all join Buhari in crying!!!

I am Goodluck Jonathan
I've been in Government for 12 years but have no achievement yet. I promise to atone for this in 4 years.
I was supposed to be VP but I actually wasn't better than PA to Turai Yar Adua
I have the gift of speaking with people in coma, I spoke with Yar Adua in Saudi hospital regularly
Nigerians delivered from the bondage of Turai, Bukola Saraki and the cabal but I have no choice than to stay with these cabals if i want to remain President.
IBB is my Godfather and mentor
Obasanjo is my Godfather
EK Clarke is my Godfather
David Mark is my Godfather
Bukola Saraki is my Godfather
I have numerous Godfathers and I'm already anticipating a cabinet of 100 ministers and thousands of SA's to satisfy the interest of my Godfathers
Dbanj is what I consider a role model for Nigerian youths
I plan to build airport in every state in Nigeria
I plan to build more mushrooms university in Nigeria
I depleted the Excess crude account to buy supporters for my Presidency
I became President amidst great goodwill but frittered everything away trying to build my own cabal.
I promise to deliver 10,000MW even though Otedola (the Diesel Merchant) is one of my major financiers.
I"m not sure i want to be President, I am incompetent for the job but my wife, Obasanjo, the cabal and Niger Delta people want me as President.
I have no enemies to fight but my friends regards Nigerians as their enemies and have been fighting Nigerians for over 50 years
I made it by Goodluck and I believe all Nigeria needs to be great is Goodluck.

For those who don't know RIBADU's running mate is card carrying member of PDP. I'm not aware that he has resigned his membership. He is a member of GEJ's Presidential Advisory council and you want me to vote that ticket with the burden of GODfatherism, the same Godfatherism that has hindered FASHOLA.

if there's any breath of FRESH AIR, it is BB2011, we the people are the GOdfathers, and this is the year of the NIGERIAN voter.

My warning to Nigerians is if we refuse to bring this revolution to bear through the ballot box in April, we may have to do it the hard way like LIBYA, EGYPT etc.

We are overrating this TINUBU. All we need to do is to go out there in APRIL and vote in BUHARI then we simply show TINUBU that we can do it without him. He's using RIBADU as a pawn in his hands, that's why I'm not supporting RIBADU. I won't be surprised if RIBADU and TINUBU are working for GEJ but we will disappoint them!

BB all the WAY!

Tinubu is not in control of SW votes, if he thinks he is then he should have changed FASHOLA and he will find out!

Fashola did not promise low cost houses, infact he's on record to have said that there can't be low cost houses because there are no low cost cement, sand, iron etc.
What I think Fashola is promising this time is to help people buy the houses with low cost mortgage!

@ macjive01

Ibeto is richer than Dangote! I hope this makes you very happy, Now it's time to close this thread.

Can someone please advise RIBADU and UTOMI to support BUHARI and opt out of this presidential race. As it is, I think Ribadu is only deluding himself if he thinks he's contesting. He only attends Gubernatorial rallies and has not even started his own campaign. AT ACN rallies, Ribadu is hardly given the chance to talk.
I do believe that SHEKARAU and TINUBU are working for JONATHAN's emergence as President. I'm giving Ribadu the benefit of the doubt but he needs to step down! Until Adeola was announced as Ribadu's running mate, he was a PDP member and even in Jonathan's Presidential advisory council!

Let's work for BB2011 for the sake of us and our children. A vote for honest men with character!

Jarus,

I will get in touch with you later today. I paid for some posters of BB and it will be delivered to me next week. I nned to know how to arrange and have it pasted around lekki/Ajah area.

You would think this will make them fix the road but not Nigerian politicians. They will instead buy new Helicopters!

As an Alumnus of OAU, my heart burns from the stupidity and rascality often exhibited by the school's SUG and the incompetence of the school's Governing schools. You can't be closing down schools everyday and I don't care for what reasons.
For the students, by the time you graduate and realise that you are too old to be called for any interview, it will be too late and unfortunately for you guys, the labor market cannot even absorb the number of young people who have 2-1s and above that are being pushed out from the Nigerian private universities and those from foreign universities like Ghana, Benin republic not to mention graduate from the developed countries!
Whatever school fees, you refuse to pay now, you will eventually pay it trying to acquire one certification or the other when you can't get a job.

I must admit that's one side of the problem but that is the one that should matter to the students.

Tinubu has control of the media so this blackmail of the doctors is expected. I want the dotors to reach a middle ground too but Lagos is always insincere believing that they can do everything in the media.

As per Fashola's comments, there are public teachers and doctors in UK who earn more than the Prime minister. It's all about your contribution.

Tinubu is complaining about thebudget when his company collects like 10% of our tax and he almost owns the state!!!

They didn't die in vain, They died so their family members can receive a visit from the President's wife!!!

Like Husband, Like wife, If GEJ becomes President, I'm afraid this country will regret the next 4 years. I pray GEJ does not make it to the presidency.

Ribadu has just allowed his ambition to destroy him, TINUBU has only succeded in laundering his image using RIBADU (the corruption fighter). Once Ribadu loses the election, he can't accuse Tinubu of corruption again!!!
I think Ribadu should humble himself and give up on the race and endorse Buhari, just my thought anyway!!!

Why should we bother the nation about promotions in the NNPC if we are a serious nation. NNPC is just an oil company (a bankrupt and poorly run one for that matter!) The Rilwan Lukman's favoured their own when they were in charge so why should Jonathan not reverse it and favour his own kith and kiln?

I hope these guys end up destroying themselves. OBJ and OGD should be in Prison and I sincerely hope they end up there! This is more reason to vote Buhari, Jonathan can not fix this padi padi assassinations going on all over Nigeria.

Show me your Friends and I can tell who you are.

OGD (Murderer, Thief) - Jonathan's SW campaign manager
OBJ (Murderer, Thief) - Jonathan's Godfather

Well, Buhari is not looking at being made President like Jonathan, He's looking at winning the Presidential elections and if that will make NIgeria break up, so be it!

Beaf:
The whole thing is beginning to sound foolish and despesrate. When did governors start challenging the FG to debates, I have lost the respect I had for Fashola. Let him continue with the small minded ACN's thinly veiled ethnic staunts. The only thing left for him to declare as a bigot is call GEJ ***chukwu, we all know it sounds like an Igbo name and signifies hatred of Igbo's; so best to paint GEJ as an Igbo. Shame on ACN, the new Ciroma's of the South.

What does your respect amount to? People like GEJ are those that need your respect!!! If you can not see the issues that Fashola has raised, then I'm sorry for those who paid to educate you.

He is Lucky and favoured, unfortunately not so for Nigerians under his watch so come April, 2011 we are getting rid of Jonathan and his burden of corruption.
This just tells you that there are different ways to get to the top (luck, favour, chance, hard work etc) but it's Character that will keep you there. I will remind you GEJ supporters of this come May 29th when the man will be heading back to Otuoke, Bayelsa and we celebrate the people's elected leaders (Buhari/Bakare)

This is good for the country. We need PDP to be destroyed. We need Buhari in Aso rock! Nigerians, let's make it happen!

The problem I see here is youths still engaging in election violence. We had 2 weeks to register and after that we can listen to the campaigns and vote your conscience on election day.
I have registered and I'm  just waiting for April to "unleash" my 1 vote to chase Goodluck out of Aso Rock on election day!!!

with all the deals being done by Jonathan to secure the Presidency, we can forget progress in NIgeria for the next 4 years if this Jonathan emerges. I believe its time to show our own People Power, Support Buhari.

Ujujoan:
Are you still confused

Meanwhile, I can't wait to hear what 'God' will say when the lose!

Many of you are just Internet warriors, some of you go further and complain in your parlours and some even register their protests at the newspaper stands and beer parlours all largely ineffective.
Someone has chosen to do something different from what you and your parents have done and all you do is sit down in your rooms and type nonsense bacause you have a keyboard and internet access. Some of you have never even protetsed or voiced out against a bad govt. policy and you think you can sit in judgement over Tunde Bakare.

If anything happens to this country, many people like Bakare can find their way, many of you will be stuck in Nigeria or suffering outside the country yet they behave as if this thing does not concern them. They just complain, no solution!!!

“The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.”

If there was an apology whether recorded or in Print, I'm sure Reps and Senators will make sure it's all over the internet and even publish it in newspapers and if it's voice, they will sell make the CD and give it to Alaba boyz to pirate
