Hypocrisy is when you say that Buhari is too old at 70 and you keep calling Awolowo and Zik your heros. Whereas, Awo and Zik contested for Presidency in 1983 when they were both 74 and 77 respectively!

Hypocrisy is when you say the youths are better than the old.... Whereas the youths were responsible for the wars we had and are still having in Nigeria. .Ojukwu and Gowon in 1967..... Asari, Tompolo, Shekau in today's Nigeria.

Youth doesn't connote soundness of mind and old doesn't mean you're senile.

GEJ became Dep. Governor in his 40s, Obj first Presidency was in 40s, IBB ruled Nigeria in his 40s......

Look at NANS today, will you be comfortable if GEJ handover to NANS Executive? There are good youths and good old ones......


Age doesn't take your brains away, neither is youthfulness a guarantee for mental fertility! It is still this Buhari, yes that incorruptible Governor. Yes, that Petroleum Minister who constructed our refineries. ...
that Head of State that started War Against Indiscipline that has been reduced to Environmental Sanitation today...
Yes that man that paid Nigeria's huge debt but didn't borrow.....
Yes it is still Buhari, handsome man with pointed nose.....
A chief of army staff who went after the Chadian invaders and outran them, captured them and recovered all and put the fear of Nigeria in the minds of all her neighbours .....
. Buhari the PTF Chairman whose performance, no one has ever come close to......A public officer with cleanest Record, most outstanding performance ...... Frank and Bold, Tactical and Prudent. A renowned enemy of Corruption .....Lover of Nigeria .......

It is still this same Buhari that says 'Here I am, send me'..... An ideal man for 2015.

Flets:
GEJ is from God and Buhari is from the devil. Otherwise why would Buhari be all about blood, dog, baboon, death, anarchy and all evil vices?
FACTS TO NOTE:
1. Major General Muhammadu Buhari never said he will make Nigeria ungovernable in 2011 in any format.
2. It was a PDP politician, Alhaji Lawal Kaita who actually said Nigeria would be ungovernable if Jonathan became president in 2011.
3. It was Jonathan’s media spokesman, Reuben Abati who sat down and largely concocted the slanderous libel against Buhari’s name in April 2011.
4. General Muhammadu Buhari took Reuben Abati to court for damaging his name.
5. The Jonathan Presidency begged Major General Buhari to settle the case with Reuben Abati and the Guardian Newspaper out of court.
6. General Buhari obliged and settled out of court.
Reuben Abati with The Guardian Newspaper published an unreserved apology to Gen. Buhari in the Guardian of 11th July, 2013.
7. Late General Azazi referred to the PDP “ungovernable” crises and anger that did actually lead to Boko Haram terror franchise hired by the PDP.
Azazi said, Boko Haram is a creation of the PDP.

PoliticsBuhari/amaechi Ticket: Mind Your Business, Rivers APC Tells Presidency by Jerry24kay(op):
The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has asked the Nigerian presidency to stay away from the internal decision processes of its party.
In a statement, the spokesperson of the APC in Rivers state, Eze Chukwuemeka, on Sunday asked presidential aide, Doyin Okupe, to stop meddling into the affairs of the APC.


Mr. Okupe had on Thursday posted a tweet saying that a joint ticket involving APC’s presidential flag bearer, Muhammadu Buhari, and the Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi, as Vice President, would be a “fatal error”.

In his response, Mr. Chukwuemeka said “This is an issue that does not concern Dr Okupe, who is not a stakeholder in APC but the fact remains that if Buhari/Amaechi ticket is a fatal error then Jonathan/Sambo ticket is not only a disaster but an ectopic pregnancy that must be evacuated to save the life of the mother, in this case our nation.

“Anyone who fails an examination is asked to repeat; but when the failure is so dismal the person is asked to leave as Nigerians are asking President Jonathan and VP Sambo to leave as they have not only failed woefully but have endangered our nation to the extent that the need of Buhari/Amaechi ticket becomes imperative to save our nation from imminent extinction,” Mr. Eze said.


He also said Mr. Okupe’s comment is a sign of cowardice by the Presidency, “which lives in perpetual fear of Mr. Amaechi and has been having nightmares since news filtered out that Mr. Amaechi is in strong contention to emerge as Mr. Buhari’s running mate,” Buhari/ Amaechi ticket the best


Mr. Eze also stated that a Buhari/Amaechi ticket in 2015 is APC’s best bet of removing the PDP from power.

“With the myth surrounding Buhari combined with the bravery and sagacity of Gov. Amaechi, PDP’s days in the Aso Presidential Villa will surely become history by 2015.

“It is left to the APC power brokers to give a chance to this union if they are serious about ending the embarrassment that PDP has become in the politics of our nation,” he said of the opposition party that is yet to pick a running mate for its presidential candidate.

Mr. Eze said the APC is currently made up of two groups: the legacy parties, comprising of the defunct All Nigeria Peoples party, Action Congress of Nigeria, and Congress for Progressive Change; and the equity group who were members of the ‘new PDP’

CrimeN1.5M Job Scam: Fake Soldier Bags 7 Years Imprisonment by Jerry24kay(op): 2:22pm On Dec 07, 2014
Justice P.I. Ajoku of the Federal High Court, Benin, Edo State toady convicted and sentenced one Emmanuel Sunday (alias Umoh Sunday Iyang, Iyang Samuel Chukwudi) to seven and half years imprisonment without an option of fine for obtaining money under false pretence.

The convict was arraigned by the Economic and Financial crimes Commission, EFCC, on March 19, 2014 on an 8-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence. He pleaded not guilty to the count charge.


After diligent prosecution, Justice Ajoku found him guilty on the 5-count amended charge and sentenced him to thirty months imprisonment each of the counts. The court also ordered that the convict forfeit his two (2) phones to the Federal Government.

The journey to prison for Emmanuel started when he was arrested in Benin on August 13, 2013 by the Nigerian Army, 4 Brigade/sector 1, Operation Pulo Shield, for posing as an Army Captain to defraud one Igue Endurance of the sum of N1, 545,000.00 (One Million Five Hundred And Forty- Five Thousand Naira) in the pretext that the said amount be used to facilitate her recruitment into the Nigerian Army.


One of the charges read, “That you Emmanuel Sunday ( also known as Umoh Sunday, Inyang Samuel Chukwudi) on or about May, 2013, at Benin within the Jurisdiction of this honourable court, with intent to defraud did represent yourself to be a captain with the Nigerian Army and obtained the sum of Three Hundred Thousand Naira only(300,000.00) from one Igue Endurance, which said money you used part of it and paid the sum of Eighty Thousand Naira into your Diamond bank plc, account 0001857059, under the pretence that the said sum would be used to get Igue Endurance recruited into Nigerian Army, a pretext which you knew to be false and thereby committed an offence contrary to section 1(1) (a) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act 2006 and punishable under section 1(3) of the same Act”.

PoliticsPresident Jonathan Met Today With Abacha Junior : why not Ibori etc by Jerry24kay(op): 1:35am On Dec 06, 2014
The Supreme Court on Friday, January 17, 2014, stated that Mohammed Abacha, son of the late former Head of State, General Sani Abacha, must be arrested and returned to an Abuja High Court and face his trial over allegations of theft instituted against him by the Federal Government of Nigeria.
Abacha is currently facing a 123-count charge leveled against him by the Federal Government of Nigeria, wherein he was alleged to be in possession of stolen property belonging to the Federal Government.
The property were allegedly stolen by his late father, Gen. Abacha, Nigeria’s former Head of State.
Abacha’s attempts to foil the trail failed at Court of Appeal before heading for the apex court.

In it’s verdict, the apex court, however, submitted that immunity does not extend beyond the tenure of office and that even if the late head of state were alive, he could have been prosecuted for a criminal offence, not to talk of his son, who has never been a State Leader” -Daily Post. 17/1/14.
http://dailypost.ng/2014/01/17/supreme-court-orders- mohammed-abacha-arrested/

Mohammed Abacha and his his father, late Sanni Abacha looted our nation’s Treasury. Their cronies had a field day. These thieves stole so much and left our country bleeding.
Some of the major banks across the world, who were honest enough called the attention of our Federal government to come and take our money back. Over half a million dollars was recovered in cash from his house when he kicked the bucket. His son, Mohammed Abacha was also accused of stealing over half a billion naira. He was arrested, detained, and when the ruling party released him and withdrew all the charges preferred against him, pundits alerted the nation that it was done for political reasons.

Today, Jonathan met with Junior Abacha, one on one. Reason? To strategize on how to win Kano State back from APC!
Junior Abacah, who emerged from the meeting, told the State House Correspondents that Kano was stolen from PDP. He said- “We are hopeful; I wouldn’t want to say too much. I said it before that it was a PDP state; it was a PDP ticket. It was taken or converted or even stolen; whatever you want to call it, so be it.

The chances of the PDP are still bright” . This is Nigeria for you. In a decent society, Junior Abaacha should be in jail forever. Now, the dude is speaking and even had the guts to talk like a political heavyweight. This is why men and women in position of power steal our nation’s wealth with reckless abandonment. They do this with this belief that any party in power will bail them out when trouble comes.


I have a lot of respect for Jonathan, but I think the President is politically naive. His advisers are doing him no good at this time when people keep telling the world the president run the most corrupt regime in our nation’s history.


Why Abacha at this time when Jonathan ought to show leadership? It was said, junior Abacha’s son was released for political reasons, so, the President did not leave anyone in doubt that Junior Abacha was released to help them win a State!


James ibori should also be released to help them win more states in Mid-Western Nigeria. Every other person standing trial, including Chimoroke, the former governor of Enugu State, should be released. Why should Mohammed Abacha walk, while these other Nigerians languished in jail. Since it is now glaring for all to see that Mohammed walked for political reasons, these other goons who stole our nation’s money should also be allowed, to walk!

It is a big shame as Amaechi pointed out that all the major oil installations, LNG, refineries, Petrochemical complex, Fertilizer plants located in Niger-Delta where built under the supervision of leaders from other ethnic groups. A supposed son of the soil in power for over 5 years has not built anything for note in the region or any other region for that matter. Who would fault him if he could have a vision of building 5 refineries to meet domestic demand and export to neighboring countries? Will it be too much to add more value to our oil and gas and export more plastics and fertilizers than looking for buyers of crude oil?

PoliticsThe Scary Posture Of Mr. President And His Team by Jerry24kay(op): 11:15am On Dec 02, 2014
As a man thinks, so he is – Proverbs 23:7
Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks – Luke 6:45
True leadership is the authority given by the trust of the followers to use power for the benefit of all – Myles Munroe
Nigeria is a complex country. From its sheer size to the multiplicity of ethnic and religious groups. Anyone that must aspire to lead such a country must be prepared, particularly now that there is a growing interest in governance by the average Nigerian. Expectations and interests of the Nigerian people in governance are now different even though sentiments still becloud many. To this effect, the posture, carriage and the seriousness with which our leaders approach governance must be above par.
Majority of Nigerians may not be properly educated as result of our consistently deteriorating educational system, but I still believe that the country parades significant number of highly intelligent and forward thinking people. For this reason, it will no longer be business as usual for our leaders who relish taking the people for granted. Policies, decisions, speeches, body language and postures would be analysed to understand the real message our leaders are communicating to the people. However, the downside of this public scrutiny is the use of uncouth expressions to describe our leaders, which should be condemned. Use of such expressions distracts from the crux of the engagement which often becomes counter-productive.
Nevertheless, public debates, scrutiny and engagements with our leaders have come to stay, and this will only intensify. Proliferation of social media tools as well as constitutional democracy will help sustain the trend. This article is intended to serve the exact purpose, focusing on some of the scary and unexpected comments, postures and decisions of President Jonathan and his team.
Leadership is a huge responsibility in every respect. A time comes when a leader is expected to put aside political gimmicks and manoeuvring in the interest of the people he or she is leading. Just recently, Obama said: “I will measure ideas not by whether they come from Democrats or Republicans, but by whether they work for the American people”. Within religious or political space, the people ought to come first. Even in business today, the human capital of a company or an organisation is considered the most valuable resource.
Just when you think you have seen or heard it all, the red flags keep popping up from this administration. One would expect the “people’s” President to proudly toe same line as his predecessor by publicly declaring his assets, which would have in the least launched the promised “fresh air”. It was a shocker when he retorted on national TV that he doesn’t give a damn about the call for him to do that. It was a bitter pill to swallow for Nigerians who didn’t expect that from their President. It could have been a slip, but who cares, he is the President, who is not really expected to be that accountable to the people he leads.
As a graduate research student, working on the challenges of curbing corruption in a democracy, I was devastated when I read that my President said stealing is not corruption. Just when I was waiting for a tactical retraction of that statement by way of possibly padding it up with other explanations as they often do, I read that the head of one of the country’s anti-corruption agency also maintained the same position. Without going into the details of several definitions of corruption, the widely quoted definition by the World Bank and Transparency International, is very clear on what constitutes corruption (just google it). As if that was not enough, Mr President went ahead to say on another occasion that corruption does not come first or even second on the list of our problems as a country. This has obviously informed his attitude towards the menace since he assumed office. This is really sad, considering what the corruption is doing to our development at all levels.
I remember when this current reign of terror was still in its infancy. It appeared that the President slipped again when he implied that given the global trend of terrorism, it is Nigeria’s turn to experience it. Even though the problem was there before his administration, a reassuring attitude would have been that of zero tolerance for terrorists’ activities under his watch. He went ahead to tell the world that Boko Haram members were in his cabinet, and not one purported sponsors of the dreaded sect has been brought to justice. Senator Ndume who was arrested on allegation of links with Boko Haram is still in the upper chambers of the National Assembly. A judge recently remarked that the Government is not serious with the case. Ali Modu Sheriff who is alleged to be instrumental to the formation of the sect is now cooling off under the protective “umbrella”.
This administration has on several occasions alleged that some members of the oppositions are financiers of Boko Haram. One would expect by now that one or two of these people would have been investigated and even prosecuted. The one that broke my heart was when the Chibok girls were abducted. For two weeks the Presidency thought it was a hoax orchestrated by the opposition. While they were stalling, the farther away the girls were taken into jungle. Some supporters of this administration felt the recent bombing and killing of students in Yobe State was also intended to disrupt the President’s declaration for re-election. It appears that Boko Haram has become a convenient political tool to disparage the opposition and make excuses for poor governance, while we keep losing our compatriots in the North East on a daily basis.
President Jonathan is supposedly the most powerful President in Africa by virtue of the country he leads. I was amazed and depressed when I heard in a media chat that he deliberately does not want to use his full powers (within the ambit of the law of course) in piloting the affairs of the country, even in the face of growing corruption and terrorism. When allegations of Boko Haram sponsors were made, one would expect investigations and prosecution to follow. If this administration had not been tainted with regional posture, there is no action the President would take against any personality that will not be supported by the people if such is taken in the best interest of the entire country. If the President cannot take certain decisions in the interest of the country because of a few ‘powerful’ individuals, then we are in serious trouble under his leadership.
My greatest pain and disappointment with this administration is the current polarisation of the country along religious and ethnic lines. I have never witnessed Nigeria to be on the brink like we have come to in recent times. I certainly did not need former President Obasanjo’s letter to tell me that President Jonathan maintains a regional posture, sometimes passing off the signal as though the troubled states are not part of his domain as President of Nigeria. One of the credits I have consistently given to President Obasanjo was his ability to keep the country together. I will always give him that. It appears this administration can only thrive on sentiments because that was how it came to be in the first place. It goes without saying that what is earned by sentiment can only be maintained by sentiment.
Some of the gaffes from this administration are simply embarrassing. This must be having adverse effect on Nigeria’s image and standing in the international community, particularly, our weight in international politics. Some others I don’t want to elaborate on include the claim that Nigeria has stable power supply on Christiane Amanpour’s show which was discovered to be untrue; the early false announcement that the Chibok girls had been found (which though was later apologised for); the botched “arms deal” in South Africa, and the purported ceasefire deal with Boko Haram. We seems to be getting accustomed to them.
I know it is not easy to occupy that position, because among other things he has assume responsibility for a lot of things as the number one citizen. If anyone aspires to lead a country as complex and diverse as Nigeria, in this 21stcentury, then such a person must be prepared. Nigeria as it is does not need a maintenance leadership of “I gave you water, road and fertilizer”. We need to move beyond all that, please! It is obvious that the President is surrounded by individuals who are more concerned about their own pockets, thereby not also feeding him with the right information and counsel. These are the people doing this country the greatest disservice. Sometimes I feel we have a new set of cabal in Aso Rock who are running the show to their own benefit.
Before I rest my pen, I have noticed that the easiest way to discountenance dissenting voices that are not promoting mediocrity in today’s Nigeria is to label them “opposition”. I am not currently a card carrying member of any political party. I am more concerned about the quality of individuals who emerge as leaders at various levels of our polity. I am a concerned Nigerian who subscribe to the principles and values taught by Jesus Christ. In keeping with my Kingdom principles, I pray for Nigeria, President Jonathan and the other leaders regularly; for them to have a change of heart and put the people first in all their dealings. I pray they think about the pride a country where the systems work can bring to all of us, instead of a country where access to power means primitive accumulation of wealth at the expense of the people.

I am from Imo State

All I expect from GEJ is to stabilise electricity for Nigeria before he leaves power.

I don't expect him to do anything specially in my state. If he does bonus but I believe that with stable electricity the entrepreneurial spirit of my people will see us make progress. My Hope is that my people vote A-list Governors all the time and the President of the country can be anybody.

The one reason I want GEJ to continue is because there is no better alternative. After GEJ Nigeria needs somebody fresh. We are tired of Buhari and his generation.
Light !!
What did he promise about the light during 2011 Campaign : he said Light will be stable ..Currently I don't ve light
So after 6yrs dt he can not provide 6 hrs stable light daily, U want to give him another 4Years


No better alternative !!

All people of conscience, regardless of tribe, religion and region, would be so pained by the suffering and hardship ordinary Nigerian families are enduring and the way the corrupt elite are so callously unconcerned about it.
I strongly Believe 2015 will start a New Era for this Country ..
The people don't know the power they have
Most people can't talk or make action All they do is Sit n complain ..
This wave is brewing Revolution
