Afolabi78: Let me ask the people that supporting GEJ it's the kind of nigeria were all dreaming about. where unemployment is ragging. insecurity all over. embezzlment is the order of the day. should all this continuel till 2019? think give me answer i'm not a member any party but i'm a concern citizen.

Direct the question to your father.

BrokenTV: They are taking this thing to a new height, no matter what they do, Jan,weeds have come to stay, except if they APC turn a new leaf by playing politics the way it is suppose to be not politics of bitterness, thuggery, propaganda etc.

You're on point.

I'm shocked that APC is not blaming the presidency for the impeachment.
Mumu party.

.

@mstik, Are you the lady hanging up there? How did you survived. Or I'm I talking to a ghost.

caseless: Phockphockman disappeared when he discovered how the outcome of the osun election was goin to be. He knew the apc wil giv pdp d political ebola in osun, and he decided to run.
@seun. Pls unban cleverly in the name of God. This is a special appeal. Thank u!

Is that what he told you before disappearing, I believe his coming back is a plus for war against supporters of APC.

barcanista: That will be an invitation to anarchy which will do no one good(God Forbid). The rule of Law must Prevail

I love your last statement, THE RULE OF LAW MUST PREVAIL...... Was the rule of law prevailed in the appointment of the probe panel members?.

suwailad: madam olosho, i still dey ask how china hustle? me need the pass badly

I told you to wait for PhockPhockman, he'll be tomorrow.

I no be gay like you.

Since he stylishly announced his one week withdrawal from nairaland a week ago,
I've been monitoring all threads view boards to see if he's even viewing, without success. He kept his word. Tomorrow, he's expected back to nairaland.

WELCOME MY MAN.
Even if no one loves you, I do.

suwailad: madam longeria, how your china hustle?

suwailad: Longeria, how your hustle? in short how china hustle?

My dear, you miss road, I recommend PhockPhockman for you, though he went on what he called "ONE WEEK SELF IMPOSED BAN" which expires today.

berem: nne thank you very much! Sheun can ban me but he can never ban the truth.
We shall overcome the hands of the tyranny in Jesus name. Amen!

Berem, you still refer ngeneukwenu as "Nne", after describing himself as "GENTLE MAN".
Well, how I'm I sure you're woman. Mtcheeeeewww

barcanista: he doesn't know Fash bro! What even make the OP assume that pdp will win NASS majority? I lol in chinese

You sound too sure my brother, can you bet with your "THING" for Fashola? As far as I'm concerned, it's only Buhari that can not be bought over by PDP. Even Tinubu has a price tag......

M0GIDI: Wow!! Ribadu yesterday and IBB today, two months ago it was the Ekiti people all rooting for GEJ, the man must be a real "Goodlucky".

Haters can go and .....you know the rest.

NEXT, TINUBU.

Abagworo: If not Mbaise youths, who then are Rochas supporters? Are you saying that foreigners came to Mbaise to intimidate their youths. LMFAO! Meanwhile here's a picture again from Mbaise.

Abagworo, stop deceiving yourself, the second picture is where children are raising hand to collect 50 naira note gift. How many of them is of voting age?

aare07: [b][/b]Evil genuis is using diplomatic language to save himself from GEJ and The northerners

Meaning?

size38: Yes Fashola can resist the position of senate president. The only position he cannot resist is the post of the president which many Nigeria have been calling for a better leader. Not jokers like GEJ

I know you'll have said the same thing or swear on behalf of RIBADU just two months ago that he will never join PDP.
Despite all rubbish Ribadu talk against PDP, he has swallowed his vomit.
Everybody has a price tag, including Fashola.

eunisam: evil genuis is at it again. Due to lack of comprehension while reading,I don't think ibb is suporting GEJ.

Read the post well bro.

suwailad: so they can continue their reign of terror. IBB does not mean well for this discombobulated entity called nigger-area, as long as jona is still there, their boko haram keeps working and they keep stealing defense contract money.

Will you be talking this trash if this endorsement go the way of Buhari and Tifnubu.
CRY ME A RIVER.

Babangida must have weighed all options including the ones APC being thrown in the fray through his nationalistic reasoning hence his decision to back the best option.
GEJ Till 2019.

…Says president has right to
seek 2nd term.

Former military president, General
Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida
(Retd), has given approval to the
anticipated 2015 re-election bid of
President Goodluck Ebele Jona­
than, just as he urged Nigerians to
be patient with the president in
his efforts to tackle the myriad of
problems facing the country.
In an interview with journalists at
his Minna country home to mark
his 73rd birthday, Babangida said
there is nobody in Jonathan’s
shoes who would not take
advantage of a second term.
“Well, if you were in his shoes,
won’t you want to come back if
you are there? If you believe in
what you are doing, and you are
doing well, why shouldn’t you? I
think we once got it right, and we
can still get it right, and you guys
have to get it right.
“I think what is lacking is what I
have always referred to as voter
education, the level of
understanding, the level of belief
are still below what we expect. For
instance, if you (the journalist)
were elected as the governor of
your state today, you should be
able to take a survey of whether
people like you because you are
doing well, but they may not like
you because you are not fulfilling
the promises you made to them.
“The only means is for the people
to be patient and at the time of
next election, the leader gets
voted out. So, we have not
reached the stage where the or­
dinary voter would say no, as a
matter of fact, their leaders have
not done well, let us vote them
out. Once you do that, I think in
the next dispensation, somebody
else would come in and I really
hope we would reach that stage
where ideas are the main issues,
not which zone should produce X,
Y, Z positions. I think this is still
part of the little problems that we
are facing.”
As to what the old generation of
leaders is doing about the
multifarious problems confronting
the country, Babangida said the
leaders are doing a lot, and if
there is any set of Nigerians who
understand the problems of this
country, they are those of them
who have had the opportunity to
be at the helm of affairs at various
times in the life of the country.
“We know what the problem is, we
appreciate what the President is
doing, and the best we can do,
and what we are always doing is
to be of help or assistance to him
in forms of advice, meetings,
interaction and so on.
“I think this is one of the luckiest
countries, which has got seven
living heads of state including
interim head of government, and
we have always availed ourselves
through the President and we
have also appreciated the
problems the President, is facing,
and because we were once there,
we appreciate it more than any
other person in the country. The
best we could do is to always sit
with him in an environment that is
really conducive and then give him
advice, and I think I am glad to
say that we are doing the best we
can to assist him, while we urge
Nigerians to be patient with Mr.
President.
“I have always said that there
would be Nigeria in 1,000 years to
come and, therefore,everybody
who has followed the history of
this country would have observed
that every administration from the
late Tafawa Balewa period to the
current regime, every
administration had faced one
challenge or the other during the
course of it’s time and this one
cannot be the end because the
last administration had its own
challenge too. The important thing
is that we the people should strive
hard to overcome the problem
and then move forward. I think
what is happening to us is not new
in any developing country.”
Reacting to a question on the level
of insecurity in the country,
especially as it affects the
abducted Chibok girls, the former
leader responded thus: “I am
aware of what the government is
doing now, and I know that there
is a lot of competition. It is no
longer an issue that you could ask
the military to move inside
Sambisa forest and release these
young girls. I think what Nigerians
want is that they want them
released and come home alive,
and not dead. Nigerians want
them alive and this is a very
genuine thinking. From my
experience as a professional
soldier, we need a lot of planning,
a lot of co-operation. A lot of
studies have to be done to achieve
this objective.
“Either 217 or 219 or whatever the
number is, it is a lot of number to
lose just like that, but I think the
government is trying from what
we got during our last briefing,
and I am quite satisfied that
efforts are being made to get
them released. You see, the
objective is to get them out of
that place alive because the
operative word is alive, hence if
we enforce any military operation,
we can get them all killed. So, the
objective could be defeated.”
Talking about impunity in
governance, the impeachment
saga and the militarization of the
electoral process, IBB expressed
disagreement, saying, “it is still
part of the learning process.
“You may call it impunity, you may
give it any name you want, but for
those of you who are observers, I
think I would like to see a
situation where a chief executive
of a state is being accused and he
is given an opportunity to come
forward and say look, this is not
true. He has his team of lawyers,
the state House of Assembly
would also have their lawyers too,
and they should make it public so
that the public gets to know what
is happening, and at the end of
the day the two parties would iron
out their differences.
“But don’t forget that in our
current situation, like I said, we
are just in the learning process
because if it is one particular party
that has more than the two-thirds
majority in the House of Assembly
to remove a governor anytime
they find there is a breach of the
constitution or gross misconduct
it will be easy. But I hope to see a
situation where the governor as
the chief executive of the state
can talk over the heads of those
of them in the assembly and
reach out to the public assuming
the governor is doing well, the
public will support him.”
Babangida expressed the hope
that a time would come when the
immunity clause will no longer be
an issue, although every chief
executive has something in him
that needs protection like his
name, his reputation, his family
and so many other things.
According to the former leader,
those are the things he should
protect, not immunity that is there
for one thing or the other.
“But if you accuse me, I will like to
prove to you that you are wrong.
But time would come when the
chief executives would rather
defend themselves especially on
the issue of their personal
integrity. They are supposed to
remove this issue of immunity
clause and the rest of them.

NgeneUkwenu: Hungry Men! jonathan can only "rule" south east and some parts of South South in 2015 where incompetence is tolerated!

Thank you for your free lecture on your personal wish. But I can tell you that Igbo nation has come of age, so they know what to do and the right time to do it. For the first time in my life, Igbos are speaking with one voice, which is a big shock and disappointment to those born to rule and their western slaves. Whoever regards the dignitaries that attended yesterday's event as hungry Men must be suffering from MENTAL FAMINE.

Which day will they start distributing the PVC in Rivers State. Please I'm interested.

deeobserver209: All APC members are long throat. Give them position of power and they will be ready to insult Tinubu and co right to their faces. Fashola will surely dive into the offer like a dog cracking a piece of bone.
However, that can can only happen in his dreams.

So, because of ebola, election no go take place abi?

Foolish people.

Sincere9gerian: Who dash monkey banana?

You can never say never in politics.

caseless: we cant disagree always...there must b a point whr we agree .

TRUE.

caseless: Inasmuch as i think this is a wild goose chase, i dnt think it is impossible. Na only Buhari go join pdp i go de shock for now.

For the first time, I agree with you.

Amaechi has played all his card, what we're seeing now is frustration.

With 2015 elections fast approaching, the two major political parties in Nigeria, PDP and APC are making desperate moves to outwit each other. One of the strategies the parties adopts is to weaken each other through many ways, including poaching. APC played the poaching card very well during early part of their life which resulted in the much celebrated defection of five PDP governors, house of Representatives, Senators, state assembly members to APC, even as many of the defected lawmakers later came back to the ruling party, PDP went ahead to poach more from APC, including some of their prominent members among whom is RIBADU who is set to contest the forthcoming governorship election in Adamawa. If Ribadu, with all the evil he has spoken against PDP can even think of joining PDP, then nothing is impossible. The big question is, can Fashola resist the temptation to join PDP if given the opportunity to become Senate President?
