Case 1: Buhari is not only qualified but eminently qualified. The case will eventually be proven beyond reasonable doubts by the appointed dates. I nurse no fear on this at all.

Case 2. When Jega had a Q&A session at The Senate, he confidently told us that their legal experts have assured them that the use of the card reader does not contraven any electoral law or any part of our constitution. The use of card reader is only for verification purpose and not for voting. So, it does not amount to electronic voting. Again PDP is chasing shadow just as GMB's eligibility.

GOOD RESPONSE. But if Obanikoro an election rigger can be confirmed a minister, and elections could be postponed with the planned lie of performing magic withn 6 weeks in th NE. i have a feeling that PDP will try anything possible to spin this

Acekidc4:
All dose Permutations No go fit Work!!

nothing is impossible with desperado Jonathan

Progressives...lets take a critical look at this 2 pending cases before the Court. I have a strong feelings that this are permutations by PDP to scuttle the outcome of this elections should Buhari be declared the President elect after the elections tomorrow.

PDP knowing fully well that, any further attempts to postpone the elections will have gotten heads rolling. I believe they have put together permutations to nullify the elections after Buhari have been decleared winner. Take a look at this 2 pending cases;

CASE 1

A Federal High Court in Abuja has adjourned all the suits challenging the eligibility of presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari,till April 22 and 23, 2015.

Justice Adeniyi Ademola fixed the date after he dismissed applications by two intended parties to join the suit as defendants.

‎The judge said the adjournment would affect all the pending suits against Buhari in his court.

CASE 2

ABUJA- The Abuja Division of the Federal High Court has declined to restrain the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, from using the Smart Card Reader Machines for the presidential election holding tomorrow.

It however stressed that if ‎it eventually ascertains that the use of the card readers were illegal and unconstitutional, it will not ‎hesitate to annul the outcome of the general election.

Looking at case one...What if Buhari wins, then the court declares Buhari is not Elegible: WHAT HAPPENS?

Case 2: Why does the court have to wait till after elections before it can determine if card readers are legal or not?

What if the court declears the cards are unconstitutional and illegal?

Reasonable comments please

People that don't have pvc
Buhari shld wait till saturday and see how we going to defeat him
Say yes to transformation if you want to reap the fruit of your labor

Mumu!!! Whats your point? its both ways...dduh!

barcanista:
The OP's message is addressed to eThugs and mercinaries, and I don't fall within such groups. After the polls, I will still be here no shaking.

you are a political bird who sings for who ever gives u 'okababa'. You are definitely one of the people OP is referring to for the fact that you have no political direcdirection. That is why your words are inconsequential and holds no water on this forum just like FFK words are discarded into the bin.

Mynd44:
Dumb...

Using silly ethnicity to make others look bad. Someone deserves a slap for this crap

Mynd what is dumb there? Jonathan started the ethnicity game. All this while he forgot about the SW. He openned his mouth to say the SE are the back bone of his government. He opened his mouth to say he as employed more igbos than every other government. How come he as visited the SW like never b4 in the past 5years in just 5 weeks. Who is he trying to deceive? Why is he not relying on only his back bones? I am not from the SW but we have to call a spade a spade!

dadexcel:
. Please try and reas in between the lines without any form of bias. She said they were invited as comunity women leaders to come for a meeting with the governor in owerri. While at the venue, they were told that the imo state council of traditional rulers (the faction lead by eze ilomunanya who was wrongly deposed by okorocha, but later re-instated by the supreme court) were coming to use the venue, hence the women were told to narricade the venue. What they did not tell the women was that the traditional rulers were scheduled to meet with the president and commander in chief of the armed forces, that was the deceipt, by the time they got to know they had already started the barricade, and I believe the press probably arranged by okorochas government had documented there actions. So my brother, let's endeavour to analyse issues from different perspectives so as to get the truth. God bless us all

Is this from the same article or you are developing your own story?

Deltagiant:
This coming from a world renowned Islamic media will be very shocking to the overly presumptious APC social media miscreants.
I can only assure ALJAZEERA the PDP structure curently on the ground will annihilate APC on saturday.
It is a long shot from being too close to call.
They're up against a popular Commander In Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria.
Even as sea and land borders have been closed from millions of Niger and Chadian citizens with Nigerian PVCs.

Chie all this Tanoids sef...CNN,BBC, sahara, Aljazera...all media outfits except AIT are controlled by APC bah?

Those scales on your eyes will fall of after March 28. NIGERIA IS MARCHING FOR BUHARI.

Just watch as PDP mudhouse like structures will collapse like a hale of sand from a Tipper after march 28!

The protesters had blocked the roads to the centre, a situation which led to policemen and soldiers to disperse them using canisters after all appeals for them to leave the venue were ignored

One of the women from Okigwe Local Government Area, who gave her name as Mrs. Ngozi Anorue said: “We were invited by the governor for a seminar at the centre. But we didn’t know that they only brought us here to protestagainst the president of our country.

Ngozi how much ego did you collect? do you attend seminars by blocking roads? After discovering you were invited for protest and not seminar....ddidnt you have the choice to go back? Abi na by force to protest??


This is one of PDP'S usual dumb and silly propagandas.

The way this woman screams Jail, seems all she sees in her sleep is a prison cell.

Anytime she opens her gutter mouth all I hear is stenched words of fear, folly, and stupidity.

What have Jonathan done for Oyo people or Nigeria as a whole? He forgot he claimed SE are his backbone, now that elections is around the corner....he has visited the SW more than the SE in his 5 yrs of office.

Madam Patience, the prison yard and cell you always see in your dreams, will turn to reality for u and your wicked husband soon.


GMB 2015

GMB 2015.

I have decided!

President Goodluck Jonathan lacks the power to deploy soldiers for the conduct of election without the approval of the National Assembly, a federal court ruled Monday.

Justice Ibrahim Buba of the Federal High Court in Lagos held that the practice of deploying troops of the Nigerian Armed Forces in the conduct of elections when there is no uprising is “anti-democratic” and not in tandem with civil rule and constitutional democracy.
“The armed forces have no role in elections,” the judge said.
“The time has come for us to establish the culture of democratic rule in the country and to start to do the right thing particularly when it has to do with dealing with the electoral process which is one of the pillars of democracy.
“In spite of the behaviour of the political class, we should by all means try to keep armed personnel and military from being a part and parcel of the electoral process.
“The state is obligated to confine the military to their very demanding assignment, especially in this time of insurgencies by keeping them out of elections. The state is also obligated to ensure that citizens exercise
their franchise freely and unmolested.”

Femi Gbajabiamila (APC, Lagos), a member of the House of Representatives, had filed the suit before the court seeking a declaration that deployment of soldiers during elections in illegal and unconstitutional.
Joined as respondents in the suit were Mr. Jonathan; the Chief of Defence Staff; the Chief of Army Staff; the Chief of Air Staff; the Chief of Naval Staff; and the Attorney-General of the Federation.

The deployment of soldiers during previous elections held in Ondo, Anambra, Ekiti, and Osun were contrary to the Nigerian Constitution, Mr. Gbajabiamila’s lawyer, Seni Adio, told the court.

The judge backed the lawyer’s arguments, noting that the president lacks the powers to deploy soldiers any time he wants.
Mr. Buba dismissed the respondents’ arguments that Mr. Gbajabiamila did not have the legal right to institute the suit and that the court lacked jurisdiction to entertain the suit.
He also dismissed their arguments that the soldiers are needed to ensure peaceful polls, noting that the military was not needed for such civil duties.
Recently, a Court of Appeal in Abuja barred the use of soldiers in the conduct of elections, stating that it was a violation of Section 217(2)(c) of the Constitution and Section 1 of the Armed Forces Act.

The appellate court had relied on a judgment by a Federal High Court in Sokoto last January also barring the use of armed forces in the conduct of elections.
Mr. Buba said that he was bound by the appellate court’s decision and quoted copiously from its ruling.
The judge said that the law does not make provision for the military to be involved in civil activities, and if soldiers must vote, it must be in their barracks.
He also said the appellate court directly interpreted the Constitution when it held that Sections 215 and 217 jointly limit the president’s power to deploy soldiers to the suppression of insurrection and to aid the police to restore order when it has broken down.
“I am bound by the decision of the Court of Appeal and equally persuaded by the decision of Federal High Court, Sokoto, which also persuaded the Court of Appeal.
“It is in this regard that the court will say that its duty in interpreting the constitution has been simplified and made easy by the decisions I have referred to extensively.”

Kola4uniadgog:
Don't even mention that charade at the chatham house, and bros shebi na scales dey cover my eyes. Bros, u need to remove d log of wood in ur eyes.

Charade Like seriously? U think UK is Nigeria where u can manipulate debates like the just concluded real charade?

Kola4uniadgog:
He knew he would be asked questions on several sectors of the economy. And he came prepared with facts and figures of gianst strides in certain sectors to back up his presentation. Everyone at d debate came with their own facts they wrote down. That is not an expo. The things he said are things he has said at various fora. How dey stopped fertilizer corruption, the ippis, the e-wallet system. He doesn't need an expo to say all that.
You need not resort to personal attacks to drive home your point

The only thingn i saw Buhari tso was to jot down questions in london....and respond accordingly. Not read "facts" from doucumented scripts. Bro..this is no personal attacks...reomove the scales and wools of sentiments from your eyes and face reality.

Kola4uniadgog:
I think during the first few minutes of the debate, he was trying to gain his composure and he was looking down, not reading from the scripts. Later on, that stopped and he only looked at his paper to quote facts and figures.
#APCfail

So he already knew what facts and figures to document bah? You guys are really so dumb.

A CALL ON THE
CONSCIENCE OF THE
PEOPLE OF RIVERS
STATE AN ADDRESS
DELIVERED BY ENGR
TELE IKURU. DEPUTY GOVERNOR OF RIVERS
STATE IN RESPECT OF
2015 GENERAL
ELECTIONS My dear People of
Rivers State, I bring you
honest and sincere
greetings. Today, I
address you out of the
fullness of my heart. Recall that in December
2013, out of extreme
loyalty to my Boss and
friend, I joined the All
Progressives Congress
(APC) along with other then disillusioned Rivers
People. Ever since, as the true
nature and motives of
APC are unveiled, I have
continued to twist and
turn in extreme mental
and emotional agony. The more I struggle to
belong, the more the
Rivers man in
me rejects the APC.
After carefully
studying, interacting and analysing the
leadership of the party,
I have come to the sad
conclusion that the APC
is a party of rebels,
insurgents and anarchists, clothed in
robes of pretence and
deceit. APC is a party
founded on deception
and it thrives on unholy
propaganda and falsehood. I therefore, on behalf
of my teaming
supporters, and my
humble self-denounce
the APC and we all
jointly and severally resign our membership
of the APC. My dear people of
Rivers State, we of this
generation will not in
good conscience expect
forgiveness and
compassion from our forebears, posterity,
and the spirit of our
unborn generations if it
is recorded in the annals
of history that after 48
Years of Rivers people supporting leaders from
all other parts of this
country with our votes
and resources, we were
the same that witch
hunted and hounded down the very first
ever President from this
region, granted us by
providence. I wash my hands off
this treachery. In the light of the
above, I wish to urge all
My Supporters, the
Good People of Rivers
State to join hands with
other well-meaning Nigerians to massively
vote for President
GOODLUCK EBELE
JONATHAN (GCFR) and
the Transformation
Agenda that has brought so much relief
and succour to the
greatest number of
Nigerians. I also urge all
Rivers People to vote
for Chief Barr Nyesom Wike (CON), who has
shown by his
antecedents, track
records and boundless
capabilities that he will
deliver good governance to the
People of Rivers State. Thank You and God
Bless You All

After Peterside wins and Buhari is sworn in in May 29. Your mouth will bend to another side again.

This is what the clown said when hredefected to APC

Months after the Governor of Rivers State, Gov. Rotimi Ameachi defected to the Opposition All Progressive Congress, APC, the deputy Governor of the State Engr. Tele Ikuru, joins the party.


He said the All Progressive Congress (APC) is poised to take over the leadership of the country and correct the wrongs of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Engr. Ikuru said this on Saturday when he, alongside his wife, Dr Mina Ikuru, Interim State Chairman of the APC, Chief Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, amongst others, formally registered for the APC at Ikuru Town in Ward 5, Andoni Local Government Area of the State.
He stated that “I am fully registered. In case you are still in doubt. For those who are still in doubt as to where l stand, I have always said it that I will stand with my boss, Governor Amaechi, where he goes. I have now registered for the APC.
“APC is the party to vote. We will encourage our people to come this way. We have led our people in the last six years, we have not led them wrongly we have always led them right and I believe that they will believe and trust our judgment. APC is the
party to beat”.
The Deputy dismissed insinuations that the exercise was marred by violence and irregularities, urging everyone to exercise their right to association and register with the party, calling on the opposition to desist from harassing and intimidating would-be members of the APC.

JONATHANS DOLLARS OUR DOLLARS AND COMMONWEALTH WILL FAIL HIM!

Sai Baba 2015 - 2019 -2023

This is just a faction of APC. They should relax. I see nothing wrong in what the pastor said. Osibanjo is not the only pastor involved in politics. Bakare is there, CAN President is there. And alots of pastors have been accused of collecting bribes. I see no reason why this faction should take this personal cos I see to direct connection with APC.

To be candid...u cant engage in Nigeria'ss politics and not soil your hands.
