I can't believe that I'm enjoying this madness.

omenka:
Even though the source isn't credible, here's the crux of the matter:



Last time I checked some people said they


Now tell me, who should we rather be wary of?? Since when did it become compulsory to vote any one IN PARTICULAR in an election under democracy??

All we are saying, DO NOT RIG the election!!!!!
Is that too much a demand??

Omenka, PDP will rig. It's as sure as the sun setting the next day.

At this stage, I'm not expecting APC to be preaching to the choir. This is time for mobilization and beating PDP at their own games.

Op, humans generally tends to be corrupt not just Nigerians.

By the time will start having good working structures whereby those who breaks the law are continuously being made example of, you will be shock by how incorruptibles Nigerians are.

Ameachi chillax! This's a defeatist statement.

The just concluded PVC registration is marked with corruption. The category of people that have registered now are political part members, families and supporters. The real citizens were systematically frustrated by slotting in people who came through them. INEC must continue this exercise till Jan. If 2015 elections must be free and fair.

And you think you made sense, tribalist. Stay in your cisspit and allow those who appreciate the essence of embracing every part of the country as home. Haters like you are always interested in story that spot the north in bad light. The north as much as the east have their share of security issues, so don't come here to make it sound like the east is all liberated from its vices. Shut your fat mouth if you are less concern whether igbos stay back or not. It's hut dwellers like you that will do anything to frustrate their return. You hate to hear about the large concentration of igbos in the north but simpleton like you can't deny that fact. By experience, they have learnt the ease to live, blend and trade in the north without hinderance unlike the ravage hell hole, kidnappers hot spot in the east. Ever wonder why inspite of the 'insecure' north, many igbos continue to come in drove? Blind tribal bigots like you can't fathom that, but the reality is the warm, friendly nature of the north. Go to hell with your bigoted, fowl smelling, tribalist mind. Your type should be flush from this country. Backward, clannish, medieval thinker. I said again, i'm ashame sharing this country with senseless people like u. Comot for my face.

Well said.

CFCfan:
It was truly shocking indeed. I can't imagine Obama visiting South Canada for the sole purpose of attending the commissioning of a stadium.

Obama has a lot of important duties that he has to attend to.

GHKWAME1:
I respectfully disagree with you, I am sure invivations were sent long ago stressing the need for them to be there personally. Please African leaders are unshakable by uproars, if not how come gargantuan corruption still persists in all African states?

You are right. The only time they do seem to care is only during the election period. How I wish every Nigerians realize how powerful we're with our votes. Until we start punishing them with our votes, they will never stop this nonsense.

GHKWAME1:
Lol! You are not far from the truth, mediocrity is their hall mark, I don't get this fucckery of theirs to be cutting sods when they are constructing a road, or a school block considering that they ensure their blinded jobless bunch of hooligant apologies are there to cheer them up with the hope if being fed and given a stipend stolen from the national coffers.
With regards to the bolded, all I can type is dejavu. Many of my compatriots in Ghana used the same phrase when images were beamed back to the motherland. But to be fair, its not good to turn down invitations in diplomatic circles, you either send emissaries or you get there yourself, I don't think they did any wrong by attending to an invitation.

I beg to disagree, they should have send their respective minister of sport. It's embarrassing to see african Presidents coming together to witness commissioning of stadium.

As useless as my President is, he wouldn't dare leave this country to do that rubbish(hopefully he wouldn't). The uproar that will greet that decision is better imagine.

With three sitting, and at least one former, African Presidents (Nigeria, Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire) in attendance, along with the National Chairman and other top officials of the People's Democratic Party, state governors, ministers, the cream of Nollywood, active and retired footballers, including Pele himself, international media personalities and sundry social (and political) climbers, Governor Godswill Akpabio clearly OUTDID himself with the sheer extravagance of the event

I'm use to seeing Nigeria so called leaders celebrating mediocrity but what was a little bit shocking was seeing 3 sitting African Presidents leaving their country to witness rubbish. They are jobless and obviously birds of the same feathers.

Hmmm, the guy seems to know what it takes to run a public forum. If Seun is not employing him, he should learn from him.

waxing well with their rubber man always.

Na you sabi, are they complaining? Aproko.

Culin:
Yea right, once you got a good job and money flowing in what do you need a man for? Nothing..they are heart breakers when young, but when the become men they don't just break your heart, they take it away from you, leaving you numb and emotionless, I don't need nobody to drive me insane

Awww! So true! In addition, you look around you, one never get to find a single happy marriage.

I understand this women fear. My phobia is getting married and being unhappy.

Beautiful, bold and intelligent women. Living their life on their own terms.

There were dozens of former governors, ministers, business
people of Muslim Hausa-Fulani origin who were similarly jailed
by the Buhari regime. Just a few examples:
1. Umar Dikko, a Muslim Hausa Fulani scion and arguably the
most influential northern politician at the time, was
unprecedentedly pursued up to his UK hiding place, abducted by
the Nigerian security agents, bundled and literally 'boxed' and
almost got smuggled back to Nigeria - to account for his alleged
corruption during the Shagari regime.
2. Isyaku Rabiu, arguably one of the richest ever Hausa Fulani
businessmen, and one of the most highly respected Islamic
scholars as well (he is indeed one of the leading Tijaniyya
Sheikhs in West Africa), was not only thrown to jail at the time
but even got one of his legs reportedly broken by the security
agents in the process of his arrest, probably after his hundreds
of supported tried to prevent him from being arrested.
3. Another super-rich northern businessman in Kaduna, late A
Haruna Dan-ja, also a Muslim Hausa Fulani, was equally
arrested and thrown into jail (both Sheikh Isyaku Rabiu and
Danja were allegedly implicated in corrupt practices that were
considered harmful to the national economy, such as misuse of
import licences, hoarding of essential commodities, etc.).
4. Late Sabo Bakin Zuwa, a former governor of Kano state, was
sentenced to 300 years in jail WITH HARD LABOUR by a Kaduna
military tribunal, after which he was rumoured to have 'begged'
the tribunal for more years, saying that 'mere 300 years' were not
enough! LOL
5. A prominent businessman of Katsina origin, a Hausa-Fulani
Muslim, who had been allegedly aiding and abetting cross-
border smuggling between Nigeria and Niger for many years prior
to the coming of the Buhari regime, and who was so well
connected in the country, had to hide in the ceiling of his house
when security agents swooped his home in the dead hours of the
night; they evacuated all his family members and spent hours
looking for him. He eventually had to run to the Republic of Niger
where he took refuge!
6. A very influential former ambassador of Kaduna state origin, a
Hausa Muslim, is STILL living in the capital of a Western country,
apparently too traumatized and frightened to return to Nigeria,
having been implicated in a massive corruption case back then.
Like in the cases of Southern politicians, almost all of the
northern Hausa-Fulani politicians jailed during Buhari regime
were NEVER FREED until AFTER the Buhari regime was
overthrown. The fugitives among them also never returned until
after the overthrow of the Buhari's government (a few never
returned to date!). Whoever is old, enlightened and honest
enough should know all this, as it was very much a public
knowledge.
In fact, immediately after the ouster of the Buhari regime,
hundreds of friends, relatives and business associates of Sheikh
Isyaku Rabiu trooped to his Kano residence and started frenzied
celebrations and special prayers in anticipation of the release of
their billionaire Sheikh.
What many people in the South do not seem to know is the fact
that the corrupt among the Hausa Fulani Muslim elite hate and
fear a Buhari government as much as the Christian bigots and
tribalists would hate it, but for different reasons. While the latter
group hate Buhari for nothing other than sheer religious bigotry
and incurable tribalism, the former fear the general because they
know very well that it would never be business as usual for them
under a Buhari-led government - being a Muslim and a Hausa-
Fulani would NOT shield anyone of them from being held
accountable!

PDP! The ball is now in your court.

Chigold101:
sister this has not come to name calling OK. u collected your card with out any problem But u discovered that many people lost their temporal card therefore they couldn't collect theirs. Don't u think that it was like that all other places in Lagos? could it be that this issue of losing temporal card is the issue all over?

I wouldn't know, neither would you. That's why INEC must respond by bringing out their own fact.

Chigold101:
bros no vex o. is progressing falsehood a sign of strong opposition? How will common man win in a war that is built on lies?

Where are the lies? He made a strong allegation backup with fact. Our job as Nigerians is to force INEC to respond to this allegation and not start defending foolishly.

Chigold101:
please do u live in Lagos state? If you live in Lagos state, your report iscontradicting Thiefnibu‘s report. That can be dangerous oh. Becareful before your head disapears or before theu deport u or send you to exile o.

I do live in Lagos. Believe it or not Tinubu is doing his job as a party agent and an opposition figure. That's the beauty of having a strong opposition. The common man will always be the winner.

It boggles the mind that in a densely populated and politically active state such as Lagos, there can be so many units with no registered voters at all. This bellied the recent history of voting in Lagos. It makes no logical sense.”

INEC should respond to this.

PVC was distributed in my locality today and I didn't have any issue collecting mine. The only issue I noticed was that a high percentage of people have lost their temporary voters card but they were told to come tomorrow with 2 passport photos.

Nice thread.

And so? Does Nigeria equate to North? Must the president resign because the North decided to burn? Is GEJ the president of Nigeria or of the North?

Ceding Bakassi to Cameroun did not stop OBJ from ruling Nigeria, ceding few parts of the North to BH will not stop GEJ from ruling Nigeria, or are those parts of the North of better economic importance than Bakassi?

He should resign due to derelict of duty I.e failing to protect the citizens of this country.

He should resign for ceding not just one but 17 local governments to the insurgents. If you still don't see reasons why he should resign please do keep quiet.

persius555:
Op, to be fair to your judgement, if you or anyone were in the CDS shoes we would have done the same.Regrettably, that act affected the already bruised moral of the troops on ground. I am sorry to say, but the obvious is that members of the NA army do not believe in dying for this union called nigeria. My advice to the men and boys, christain or muslim from states affected by boko haram activities is to arm themselves and defend their town and villages, @ least they have something to die for.

We are talking of the CDS. He has an information of an incoming attack. In military parlance that's called an Intel. That's is a critical information. He sat on it. That's called treason. In a sane and uncompromise country, heads would have started rolling.

pazienza:
There is no war going on in Nigeria, there is a war going on in the North. GEJ is not the president of the North, he is the president of Nigeria, if any one should be resigning,it should be the governors of those affected Northern states, they are supposed to be the chief security officers of those states.

GEJ doesn't have the luxury of focusing on just the North alone,as there are other parts of Nigeria he has to focus on too, and if anybody would want to blame GEJ for the war in the North, then they would first have to praise him for the peace present in the South, and if you feel that the peace we enjoy in the south has nothing to do with GEJ, then you must know that the war in the North has nothing to do with GEJ too.

Senseless talk. Is the North not part of Nigeria?

Are all these pictures also propaganda? We need a President who really cares about the war that's raging on in the North.

2m Naira for a bed! Infact everything about this building is suspect.

Fayose should persecute this case while desisting from disturbing us with unnecessary noise. Is he the first person that will be elected?

honestly this section is the best. If you're not here, you're missing.

My free advice to the Jonathan campaigner is simple;
stop projecting our President as a sectional leader
whose only qualification is where he comes from. Stop
raining insults on Northerners and avoid maligning
innocent Muslims. The religious card you wish and hope
to play will never play out in favour of President
Jonathan. You should concentrate on projecting the
positive work and his Transformation Agenda. A
President is the father of the nation. A lot of damage
has been done by portraying him as a victim who’s
derided by everyone except his own.
The President’s handlers should worry more about how
the goodwill of 2011 got frittered away in such a jiffy.
Above all, they should urgently search for competent
Maths teachers.

Unfortunately that's too late for him.

anonimi:
You guys are so childish and gullible it is laughable.
PDP will bring out corruption against him because there are no better ways to engage the General on the LIES that he told in the absence of any concrete plans for Nigerians
That is Thief'nubu's playbook - bring out corruption case against his political enemies and get kangaroo court to pronounce him guilty.

We all know how mischievous PDP is. If PDP has any anything on Buhari you wouldn't have give us time and space to read other news, you would have bombarded us with millions of thread in this section alone . Case study ; The witch hunting of Sanusi. The saga of no girls were kidnapped. Well, there is still time.

Eeeeeeh o! He really said it. A civil service state for that matter. One chance.

Since Buhari declaration, I've been waiting for PDP to bring out corruption case against him, I've been been holding my breathe for someone else to tell us how compromise he was, I've waiting patiently for anyone to tell us how incompetent he was when entrusted with power.

The consensus so far is that he's is a man of integrity.He's competent. He's been tested and trusted. He knows what it takes to preside over a country. That's enough for me.

APC should do their part, we'll do the rest.

major466:
Is Vanguard a government owned newspaper?

This is the usual modus operandi of this government especially when they want to deflect attention. This report has the signature of Metu and Abati.

The appeal court therefore nullified all
elections conducted by INEC in Osun State
in 2011 and ordered for fresh elections are
expected into the all House of Assembly,
Senatorial and Federal House of
Representatives seats in Osun state.

. Oga o, after they have almost finish their term. What a country.
