Hummmm.So that is all Jonathan can give us after so many promises on stable power supply? I will never mind those good for nothing who will still attack me in reminding the good people of Nigeria what they need to know.

Remember this before you vote.

NO Pastor, Imam, Babalawo, Oba, Obi, Emir, Obong, Chief, Militant etc can tell me who to vote for, NEVER!....

I bear the brunt of unemployment, not the Pastor....

I suffer epileptic power supply, not the Imams.....

When my landlord increases house rent, the Oba will not send me money to augment it.....
When medical bills needs to be paid, I won't see the Obi....

When armed robbers show up in my neighborhood, the Emir won't be there to rescue me...

When time comes to pay exorbitant private school fees for my children because public schools that produced the likes of Soyinka, Chinua Achebe are derelict, no Militant will come to my rescue...

The roads leading to Obong's palace are bad, he has not done anything about it, how can he help me?

Exchange rate has plumeted while the economy worsened yet the Babalawo suffers in silence with me ad he is unable to use his juju to make our economic problems disappear...

My siblings and the children of the Chief who are graduates for the past 8 years have remained unemployed while he is powerless to help them...

So I alone will decide WHO IS MAKING ME GO THROUGH ALL
THESE HARDSHIP, AND USING MY PVC TO TERMINATE HIS TENURE, IF I DON'T LIKE HIS POOR HANDLING OF GOVERNANCE!

sorry na

soe:
Nonsense man...he has forgotten when he referred to the north as "fringes"

Interviewer: mr president, what about boko haram

GEJ: err..well..we r doing alot...you know they used to attack Abuja before...now we have pushed them to the fringes.

By the way...from that letter...saying they should maintain the southsouth/Arewa friendship...is he threatening to go to war if he loses or what? Noted!

In fact, i expect the average northerner to know that Gej has failed Nigerians in many ways...security, corruption and ethnic division...

Northerners should not forget how this man treated sanusi lamido, aminu tambuwal and the memory of Northern military rulers that have died.

Sai Buhari

buhari has been winning the north since,but yet still losses d elections,so its not a new thing

Hmmmmmm

by ur votes or by rigging.GEJ till there is no more shisha in india

VOTES counting would ordinarily mean that
people are casting their votes with a certain
wakefulness that informs their decisions. For
politicians, votes counting would mean that
adequate numbers of votes to ensure victory are
in their favour.
Nigerians should ensure their votes count on
issues that are central to our survival as peoples,
and a nation. If Nigerians do not approach the
elections with circum-spection, 2015 would
produce the same unsatisfying outcomes we have
had since 1999.
We complain without addressing our concerns.
The lengthening complaints about politicians have
more to do with the individuals than political
parties. The quality of candidates is regrettably
low.
Across the parties, candidates who offer
themselves for elections, and their supporters
within the system, have cast methods that leave
voters with minimal knowledge of candidates. We
should vote for candidates with character and
credentials, those have been willing to permit
scrutiny of themselves.
We have paid dearly for ignoring candidates since
1999. We would pay the same price again if we
cast our votes without considering our past,
present and future. Votes that count should
produce strong voices, to represent the voiceless.
We need candidates, who, when elected, would
work for the common good. They are in the pack,
we have to find them. These issues are important,
whether we are electing the president, governors
or legislators.
It is important too that those we are electing
would lead Nigeria out of economic gloom.
Candidates we are electing should have clear
milestones for assessing how they would re-direct
Nigeria from further drifting. The glossy posters
and promises are sometimes veneers for the
emptiness of candidates. We should look beyond
them. Nigerians’ dissatisfaction with our current
political system stems from two points, the near
total neglect of the welfare of the people and the
aversion of public office holders to accountability.
The joint impact results in frustrations with
almost all governments throughout Nigeria.
We can get out of this jam by voting out of a
conviction that our choice, our voice, our vote
would make a difference to the parlous state of
Nigeria. We cannot vote out of fear. We cannot
vote out of intimidation. Our choices have to be
made freely.
Candidates would be judged for their past,
present and sketches of the future. They have
sold themselves to a sceptical public. People want
to vote on their perception of candidate’s stand
on issues: major, minor.
Most importantly, Nigerians want candidates to
ensure a secure future for Nigerians, beyond
current concerns. Voters’ choices that are based
on capacities of candidates to work for the
common good should supersede the primordial
considerations that keep slipping into the
campaigns.

By charles Kumolu
Lagos—THE All Progressives Congress, APC, has
accused the Federal Government of planing to
plant Permanent Voters’ Cards, PVCs and card
reader jammers in the residences and offices of
some of its chieftains so as to accuse them of
electoral fraud during the elections.
It also frowned at plans by the Dr. Fredrick
Fasehun-led Odua Peoples Congress, OPC, to
deploy its members to polling units during the
polls.
Briefing newsmen yesterday in Lagos, the party’s
Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed called
on voters to ignore the order given by the
Inspector-General of Police that they go home
after casting their ballots.
His words: ‘’On March 21st, our party issued a
statement in which we raised the alarm over a
plot to arrest some of our leaders,, especially
Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on trumped-up
charges. Though they rushed to deny it, we have it
on good authority that they have not given up on
that evil plot. In fact, they have now cast their net
wide to ensnare more APC chieftains, including
Senator Bukola Saraki, Malam Nasir El-Rufai,
Senator Femi Ojudu, Hon Dakuku Peterside,
Senator Isiaka Adeleke, Senator Sola Adeyeye,
Senator Jajere, Senator Serika Hadi, Senator Jide
Omoworare, Hon Nathaniel Agunbiade and Hon
Bimbo Daramola.
‘’The plot is to plant ammunition, PVCs and card
reader jammers, which they have dubiously
acquired, in the residence, office or vehicle of
these APC chieftains. The APC chieftains will then
be arrested with fanfare and subjected to
trumped-up charges. We have just learnt of the
statement by Dr. Fredrick Fasehun of the OPC
that he will deploy OPC members to every polling
unit across the country to monitor the
presidential elections. This is simply outrageous
and nonsensical.
”In the first instance, Dr. Fasehun’s party, the
UPN, is not even on the ballot because a court
has ruled that it cannot contest the elections.
Secondly, in what capacity will Dr. Fasheun deploy
OPC members to monitor the elections?
‘’Is OPC accredited by INEC to monitor the polls?
When did ethnic militias become election
monitors? This is what President Jonathan has
caused by drafting outlaws into the electoral
process, all in a desperate attempt to win. Now,
those who should be in jail are calling the shots
on national elections. What an anomaly.’’
‘’Now, as Nigerians go to the polls on Saturday, we
urge them to do so peacefully but resolutely.
Irrespective of the conflicting signals from the
police, they should not just vote but stay behind
to defend their votes.
”Police first said Nigerians should vote and go
home, and later reversed itself and said voters
may stay back after casting their ballots. This
confusion is aimed at confusing them.’’
‘’As we said earlier, voters should ignore the
unlawful order from the IGP, voters should rather
listen to the INEC Chairman, who said the
electoral law does not state anywhere that voters
cannot or should not wait to watch and ensure
their votes are counted.”

President Goodluck Jonathan had on August 28,
2014, heralded the official launch of the eID card
pilot scheme. As part of the pilot phase, the
Nigeria Identity Management Commission (NIMC)
has started to issue identity cards with
MasterCards’s electronic functionality to 13
million Nigerians. This initiative is the largest
rollout of a biometric-based verification card with
an electronic payment solution in the country and
the broadest financial inclusion program in Africa.
The eID card forms a key component of the
Nigerian Identity Management System, deployed
by NIMC as part of its mandate to create,
maintain and operate the country’s first central
National Identity Database and provide proof of
identity to Nigerians 16 years and older.
With 13 applications, including MasterCard’s
prepaid payment technology and Cryptovision’s
biometric identification technology, the eID card
will provide millions of Nigerians – the majority of
whom have never had access to a banking
product – with the security, convenience and
reliability of electronic payments.
Contrary to speculations that the national
electronic identity (eID) card, currently being
issued by the National Identity Management
Commission (NIMC) is fraught with security
breaches, the commission has said it would
instead give the cards, and card bearers
international recognition and acceptance, since
the cards also function as payment cards.
Director-General of NIMC, Chris Onyemenam,
who made the clarification in a media briefing on
Monday in Lagos, described the speculations as
false, insisting that the card bearers will enjoy
international recognition since MasterCard is a
global brand with integrity and acceptability
across the globe.
‘The introduction of MasterCard’s logo on the
national eID card is an advancement in
technology on the part of NIMC in ensuring that
the country’s identity card is recognised locally
and globally as payment card. Any suggestion that
MasterCard or any forign body will gain access to
the database is pure fiction not backed up with
evidence,’ Onyemenam said.
Reacting to speculations that the introduction of
MasterCard’s logo constitutes national breach,
since part of the in-built technologies of the card
are controlled by MasterCard, thus exposing the
database of Nigeria to a foreign company,
Onyemenam said the card contains 13 applets,
which are security features, and that MasterCard,
a technology company, controls only one of the
security features, which is the personal identity
number (PIN) authentication in facilitating
financial transactions on the card as MasterCard
does not and will never have access to any
database. MasterCard’s prepaid technology is just
one of the card’s 13 different applications, five of
which are currently live. MasterCard’s payments
technology is stored securely and separately from
the other applets, including the card’s
identification applet. In fact, there is a firewall
between the payment applet and all the other
applets, so, not even a Point of Sale terminal or
ATM can access the secure data that is protected
on certain parts of the card.
NIMC is the custodian of the National Identity
Database and would be contravening so many
national security laws if it ever handed access to
the National Database to local or foreign
company or organisation.
The Division President, Sub-Saharan Africa of
MasterCard, Mr. Daniel Monehin also shared that
MasterCard does not know the personal details of
the cardholder. In his words,’ MasterCard is not a
credit company, and not an identity company, but
a technology company that is facilitating
authenticity in every financial transaction carried
out on the card’. He added, ‘MasterCard is
providing the payments technology on the
National eID Card that enables cardholders to
make safe and secure electronic payments and
transact electronically in Nigeria and across the
border’.
On the choice of MasterCard as the technology
payment provider for the National eID pilot
program, MasterCard presented its payment
solution and business proposal to NIMC for the
National eID Card business together with other
card schemes and companies. The three popular
schemes – approved and licensed by the Central
Bank to operate in Nigeria and with significant
business relationships with the Nigerian deposit
money banks – were invited to submit proposals
to NIMC. The most responsive and willing vendor
was MasterCard. NIMC announced its selection of
MasterCard as the payments technology provider
for the Nigerian National eID pilot program in
May 2013 at the World Economic Forum on Africa,
which was held in South Africa.
The National eID Card is a chip and pin card
certified according to the EMV (EuroPay,
MasterCard and Visa) standard for globally
interoperable, secure payments, which is
mandated by the government of Nigeria, and it is
approved and licenced by the Central Bank of
Nigeria. The key element of EMV involves
including dynamic digital data in every
transaction. This makes these types of
transactions extremely secure and reduces the
risk of fraud. When a consumer uses an
EMVenabled card to pay at an EMV terminal, it can
be instantly identified as an authentic, approved
payment instrument belonging to that consumer
through a process called dynamic authentication.
When used with a PIN (Personal Identification
Number), the chip verifies that the consumer is
indeed holding his or her own payment card.

Jonathan has been a BIG SCAM from the very first day of his resumption. For him to commissioned a bad project IS A BIG SCAM. In the other news, the clueless otuoke man went to commission a yet to be completed power plant just to deceive the gullible Nigerian who are willing to sell their birth right for #5,000.00. Let his mumu e-rat come here to shout GMB killed nwobodo for stealing motorcycle money, and I will tell him to go to a market closer by to steal just a sachet water and come back to tell us his/her ordeal.

We need a very discipline man like Buhari. Enough of Scam

Stella Oduah Scam: No result

Fuel Subsidy scam : No update

Allison Madueke scam : No Report

Immigration Scam : No report yet, the same Minister still live with no charges against him

Police Pension Scam : No one has been arrested yet

And the biggest one, where is our 1.6 trillion naira for Security ? Boko Haram keep killing my dear brothers and sisters.

Really?! Considering your total ignorance of Islam (except what you read on Islamophobic websites), I will pass over that. But, then, have you ever read the Bible well? If yes, you must have read these crimes of Jesus, among others:

And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly
destroyed the men, and the women, and the little
ones, of every city, we left none to remain.
Deuteronomy 2:34

And we utterly destroyed them, ... utterly destroying
the men, women, and children, of every city.
Deuteronomy 3:6

And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them
before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly
destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with
them, nor shew mercy unto them.
Deuteronomy 7:2

And thou shalt consume all the people which the
LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall
have no pity upon them.
Deuteronomy 7:16

Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city
with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and
all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the
edge of the sword.
Deuteronomy 13:15

But of the cities of these people, which the LORD
thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt
save alive nothing that breatheth.
Deuteronomy 20:16-17

And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city,
both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and
sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.
Joshua 6:21

So smote all the country ... he left none remaining,
but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD
God of Israel commanded.
Joshua 10:40

Thus saith the LORD of hosts ... go and smite
Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and
spare them not; but slay both man and woman,
infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
1 Samuel 15:2-3

[size=16pt]OPEN LETTER TO PROF YEMI OSINBAJO
[/size]
I greet you sir in the name of our blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

I trust God that it is well with you and all of yours. I, along with other Nigerians, came into this new week - a week preceding the coming election - with the news that the leadership of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), along with prominent members of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), held a meeting at the Redeemed Camp along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway over the weekend, with you present, where it was said that the candidacy of Goodluck Jonathan was endorsed over Gen. Buhari for the coming elections1. I wish to state categorically in this letter that CAN has not expressed the general opinion of Nigerian Christians. I want to encourage your spirit by saying that even if leading Pastors in this country have chosen Jonathan ahead of Buhari, your principal in the coming elections; there are some Nigerian Christians who disagree with this position. And I want to apologize to you for the trauma that you must have endured this last weekend as you watched men in the same work of Christ along with you, reject you for whatever reasons best known to them. I will start my letter to you by briefly telling you the story of my conversion to Buharism. Then I will try to locate the underlying motive behind the decision of these pastors in rejecting you. Finally, I would encourage you to focus on the task ahead of not just winning this election but also helping to salvage Nigeria from the grip of the lawlessness ones.

My Conversion to Buharism

As a Christian minister, there is an incidence in the bible that I am sure you are familiar with. It is one that involved the bible character Joshua. It reads: "13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries? 14 And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his servant? 15 And the captain of the LORD'S host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so."2 Many bible scholars agree that this story is one of many incidences where the Lord Jesus Christ appeared in his pre-incarnate form in the Old Testament. Here our Lord gives a relevant instruction to both Joshua and all of us Christians as you face probably the biggest warfare of your life. Joshua waned to know whether Jesus was for Israel or for the enemies. Jesus announces to him that he was for neither. In the process Joshua discovers something that causes him to worship God. I believe what Joshua discovered was that at the point of life's greatest wars, God never appears to take side with any group; rather he stands on the path of truth, verity and justice. And God will side with any group that has these elements present in their make up. I wish to state that God is neither for a Christian candidate in the election nor for a Muslim candidate; he neither for CAN or for a Muslim group; rather God is siding with any group or party that espouses the principles of truth, justice and development this country desperately needs at these times. Any other group that might mouth these tenets but deny them in practice will not have the support of the Almighty God.

These are essentially the sentiments that I came to grasp with when I converted to Buharism. Following Pastor Tunde Bakare and the Save Nigeria Group's endorsement of the candidacy of Gen. Buhari in December 2010, I gave the GMB option a thorough study and came to the conclusion that he was a better presidential candiditate in the 2011 elections. What solidified my position further was the attitude and sentiments expressed by fellow Christians to this decision of mine. It was clear to me that unlike our Lord and Savior who will side only with truth, Christians very readily threw away the Buhari option merely because he was a Muslim. The lie that he would Islamize Nigeria also did not help. On becoming a Buharist, I sat down to understudy the whole foundation of my faith in Christ and I discovered that many of it was faulty. Since then I have had to discard many cherished practices in the Christian faith and even leave the local assembly I had worshipped with for eight years. At the close of the day, Buharism brought me into a firmer and clearer grasp of the person of Jesus Christ. And I am sure anyone will agree that this is spiritual growth indeed. Buharism showed me that Christianity is not a mere religion but sincere love for human beings, regardless of the faith they profess. It showed me that truth and justice are the foundation on which God's throne was founded. It showed me that a person need not profess Christ to be used by him to better society. It showed me that God could still replay the story of Cyrus in rebuilding a fallen nation of Israel in our present political history. Despite my conversion to Buharism, I remain a Christian. But a Christian with a clearer grasp of the person of Jesus Christ. I am now a Christian that is not bound by mere religious sentiments or parochial mindsets. This is what I believe a lot of Christians become when they come to know and support the candidacy of Gen. Buhari.

The Motive of these Pastors in Rejecting You

About two weeks ago, a news items surfaced from one of the many online news agencies in our country. It said, among other things, that a certain individual had been given large sums of money from the presidency of Nigeria to distribute to leading pastors in this country to garner their support towards the coming presidential elections3. While the veracity of this news item can be disputed, it is yet to be refuted by the individual who was clearly named by the news agency. I hope to show here that the motive in rejecting you at that meeting last weekend may not be too far from this incidence. Jesus taught us that there are two gods men worship: mammon or God4. There are no other options. This challenge is bedeviling the Christian faith at the moment and the end result is that the motives that underlie people's actions generally in life might either be for gain or for God. It is not news anymore that Nigerian Christianity is becoming the leading harbinger of a money gospel that many have very appropriately labeled the prosperity gospel. Neither is it surprising that majority of the men who rejected you in that meeting are the leading propagators of the prosperity message in our country. While the prosperity message has many tenets that one cannot explore at the moment, the key point of it all is money: how to get it and how to retain it. Thus the harbingers of this message follow the gangster rapper's philosophy of life: "Get Money or Die Trying"5. This philosophy stands in stark contrast to that of our Lord that instructed us not to make money our god or that of the apostle Paul that taught that if we have food and clothing we should be content6.

Therefore, when these pastors who espouse a money gospel came face to face with deciding on who to support in the forthcoming elections, it was not difficult for them to decide against a sound and properly laid out manifesto of the APC; neither did they have any qualms in discarding brilliant minds in the person of yourself and other leading APC stalwarts; they could not see any virtue in a leader that has no trace of corruption in his record of public service in the person of Buhari; neither did they see the new opportunity for change that the APC offers. These pastors very easily chose what has from the foundation of their ministries informed every other decision they have made in the past: they simply chose what will bring them money, advantage, acceptance with the powers that be; they fell to the god of mammon and gain that they have all along worshipped.

The Road Ahead

I was part of the people who met with you at the "I Have Decided" rally held at Teslim Balogun Stadium two weekends ago. I had received an email requesting my presence and had to travel from Ibadan on short notice that weekend to see you enumerate in fifteen minutes the vision of the APC for the coming political dispensation. That vision is what I wish you will focus on now because we shall reach that goal as a nation by the help of God. At that meeting, you taught us, Christians and Muslims alike, to join forces together to deliver our streets, neighborhoods and offices to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari in the forthcoming elections. The "Change" fever has since caught everyone and most people I know are ready to vote anything but this present contraption we call a government. I receive calls for money and aids from Pastors in Maiduguri and I realize that what I could actually give them to help salvage that besieged Nigerian city is a new government of Buhari who is known to have tackled insurgency in the past and can do it again.

The road ahead will include a preparedness to enter into the greatest assignment of your life so far, which is to lead the largest black nation on earth. A nation that has been bastardized by years of harlot leaders but which now has the opportunity to have a scion of the late Obafemi Awolowo lead her and help introduce and implement the hundreds of laudable ideas that late sage had written in his books. You have a great opportunity to do well for Nigeria in the coming years. The road ahead will also include forgiveness and a reevaluation of your faith in Christ. When you come to power, like Joseph did, you must forgive your brethren who are at the moment selling you away for a pot of red porridge. You are coming to power to help save Nigeria from imminent doom and this is the path that God has chosen for you. These men, who have rejected you now, will face their shame in the days to come. But it is your duty and mine to forgive them and help them realize the folly of their action. To employ the words of the sitting president when he came to power in 2011, General Buhari and yourself "must hit the ground running" from May 29th onwards.

There is so much to do. There is a nation to save and rebuild. There are insurgent elements all around the country that must be silenced. There is an economy to revamp. There is a nation to help place in the map of advancing countries in the world of science and technology. There is a sea of human capitals among Nigerians youths waiting to be harnessed to turn this nation into a developed country. There is an African continent waiting for Nigeria to offer the lead to development and progress. The list is endless. In short, Nigeria is waiting for the manifestation of a son of God7.

Conclusion

It is my sincere hope that the aim of this letter, which is to uphold your hand in the events of the coming elections, has been achieved.

I had argued in previous essays that Christians were not participating enough in partisan politics. I envisioned that a day will arise when a position shall be left in public office that a Christian alone could fill and there would hardly be anyone around to fill it. I am happy to see that when that situation arose in the APC, the leadership of the party found an experienced individual in your person to fill the gap. Despite your rejection by an arm of Christian leaders in the country, please be informed that a host of others support you. And more than anything else, the God of heaven is with you8.

Be rest assured that the prayers of God's people are with you and you have our unalloyed support in this mission. The duty of nation building is undoubtedly prominently connected with our responsibility to make disciples of all nations. If Nigeria, our Jerusalem, knows peace and progress; our calling to reach the world with the gospel of Christ will only be made a lot easier. Go forth and make history.

God bless you.

linuxuser:
First I thank God for you for supporting your brother which is your right. But unfortunately you seem not to accord the same right to others. I do not know the orientation you have had even though you claimed to be a minister but its obvious from your writing that you are just a babe still drinking milk and have to grow to start eating bones.

Your writing suggested that some pastors collected money and that that is why your osibanjo is been rejected. I have a simple question for you. Were you there when that money was collected? If you were not there, have you seen an evidence that such happened or you just woke up and start writing? If all you are basing your writing on hear say, then am sorry you have missed the mark and needs to go to those pastors and do restitution.

peace be with u brother

Typical Buhari people. Go school , read book , you no gree . Na only to shout SAI BUHARI like molue conductor at Oshodi dem sabi.

u just said it all,I read it all with out blinking,wisdom is profitable

Clerverly:
The Serving Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said a majority of those that constitute the power blocs in the country are in support of All Progressives Congress pres‎idential candidate, Muhammad Buhari.

He said this while speaking on the theme, ‘Nigeria beyond 2015′, at a public lecture organised by Angola Hall of Obafemi Awolowo University, Osun State, on Wednesday.

According to him, power blocs in any country influence and determine winners during elections.

The Nigerian power blocs, he said, were peoples vote, council of state, clerics, governors, traditional rulers, top entrepreneurs and retired generals.

The cleric said, “Peoples vote determines electoral victory anywhere in the world, the entrenched power blocs determine electoral victory more than anything. There are six or seven political blocs entrenched in Nigeria. The incumbent president and former head of states – council of state. From the council of states, we have two candidates – one former head of state and one incumbent president. There are six others that I want you to consider on whose side they are.

“Traditional rulers, retired generals, who have tasted power, who can you say clearly is the person they are supporting? The governors and let us consider the corporate boys, who are the men of commerce. Where is Aliko Dangote, Otedola,Tony Elumelu and others?

“Look at those who control the large constituents of people on Sunday. Tell me who is Pastor Adeboye, Oyedepo, Oritsejafor backing? Those who influence voting are doing so behind the scene and when the results come, we say ‘they have cheated us’.

“Don’t be deceived by what they say in the paper, a lot happens behind the scene. I agree with you, I have said earlier that my loyalty lies with Buhari and maybe because I am an insider, I know better than you.”

If Buhari emerges victorious, the pastor noted that 100 days would be too much to hand over power to the APC candidate.

He said, “If we don’t run it (Nigeria) properly, we will be running into a major storm that can consume us. The February 2015 election further provides the incubator for the hatching of the dreaded scenarios.

“Nigeria has a way of throwing up anti-climax. If Buhari wins, what will happen between March and May. It is too long a time.”

■When President Olusegun Obasanjo was in power
we spent 300 billion per year on the fuel subsidy.
Under the administration of President Goodluck
Jonathan it shot up to 1.3 trillion naira in the last
one year alone.
▶Can someone please explain to me how it got
so high in 4 years and what exactly they were
subsidising with the extra one trillion naira?
■When the Obasanjo government left power in
2007 the country was no longer in debt and the 30
billion dollar foreign debt that Obasanjo met when
he came to power in 1999 was fully paid off.
Today, under the administration of Jonathan, our
country is back in debt to the tune of 41 billion
dollars (both foreign and domestic) and we are still
borrowing.
▶Can someone please tell me what the loans
were used for and whether we will ever be able to
pay them off?
■Foreign reserve nko? # Depleted .
▶Can someone please tell me where all the
money went?
■When the Obasanjo administration left power in
2007 23 billion dollars was left in the Excess Crude
Account after he built it up from nothing in 1999.
Today we do not have one dollar left in that
account because the money has been squandered
and the account scrapped.
▶Can someone explain to me who spent that
money and precisely what it was spent on?
▶▶Can someone please tell me precisely what
has happened to this man Jonathan and what has
got into his head? This government is not only
# weak, it not only lacks # direction but it is also
# insensitive and #callous . ▶President Jonathan,
the King #Rehoabam of our time, has hardened his
heart unto # destruction , just like Pharaoh once did,
and he has fallen into the trap that has been set
for him by God and by his enemies.
May the Lord save Nigeria from this # mess and
from this weak man and may the Nigerian people
themselves # WakeUP from their # accursed
# slumber and take their destiny into their own
hands.
▶The smell of religious war, sectarian violence,
regional and ethnic conflict, insecurity, untold
suffering, rampant poverty and economic hardship
is in
the air. Nigerians are divided as never before and
our country is slowly crumbling and dying before
our very eyes.
●Who will save Nigeria?
●Who will stand up and say enough is enough?
●Who will pull us back from the brink? ●Who can
we count on to take the bull by the horns and do
the right thing?
▶▶ There must be a lawful and democratic
# change.
My God let there be a change. . . .--(Amen)

what happen to youth being the leaders of tomorow?

adanduka:
Educate me please! Why do I have to visit Google when you're here?

If your understanding of an example of a false-flag is Boko-Haram activities carried by GEJ's leadership, then you have much learning to do.

u just gave dat dude a smackdown

attoskoly:
you just nailed it. you can see from the mutiny thing. all the officers that made the soldiers angry are hausa muslims. they tried all their best to sabotage the efforts of the real nigerian army aimed at scoring points for gmb against gej. is it not this same gmb that said in 2012 that an attack on boko haram is an attack on the north? must he be the president before he fights this menace? you dont breed a monster to grow, definitely you are his closest prey.

bless u dear

uyplus:
We need a change of government and that is not too much to ask for. Jonathan administration has failed the down trodden Nigerians. Corruption and insecurity have rose to an unbearable zenith. We can't continue like this any longer. Just name all the scam, immigration interview scam, where an irresponsible government would demand money from the unemployed to give them jobs, Dieziani looted and spent N10bn in a year for private jet charter, Sure-p scam, missing 20bn NNPC funds, Missing Chibok girls, Baga massacre, Subsidy scam, Missing pension funds, pardoning of ex-convicts lik Bode george and DSP Almaesghyia, 10m pounds weapon procurement scam, the only name released was the Israeli's, but the government has refused to release the names of the Nigerians? $30bn spent on power sector, yet we have lost 2000MW and are currently below 2500MW (for a nation with a population of 170million Nigerians), Stella Oduah BMW scam, 119bn 1.5km 2nd Niger bridge scam, when LASG has built 1.3km Lekki-Ikoyi bridge with 29bn, N4bn on presidential feeding, N34.5m to feed lions in aso rock zoo, N10bn for 11presidential jet fleet maintainance just to mention a few. Why can't Nigerians be sensible enough to see that this administration is a fraud and has failed? You don't need a soothsayer!! Lets drop the bias and call a spade a spade.. the job market is saturated. They are no jobs. There are no oppurtunities. People are emigrating out of Nigeria at an alarming rate. The government keeps boasting about building 12univeristies, but where are the jobs to absorb them? No sector in this country is working. None. The railway is t funded by Nigerian government, but the Chinese government. So what has GEJ done with FG money?

guy u get time to type oo,pls I need that ur time to make more money

donphilopus:
I'm very glad Jonathan's level of incompetence, cluelessness is becoming legendary. We now know he's incapable of tackling this Boko Haram menace.

And because of that alone, I would rather throw this my precious 64GB iPhone 6?!
