@OP, I don't know which one know no bounds, your idiocy or illiteracy |
wheredemdey:Understand that campaign strategies profiles each area and determine the best method to communicate. If Epe, Ishagatedo, Iju, Ketu, Bariga etc is profiled differently, then a different approach/strategy deployed. I believe most people in these areas are probably not too literate, the ones that are mainly fast moving and have little or no time to read long literature in pamphlets. What will be the essense of these pamphlet with Okada riders, pepper seller, even Alaba boys |
Rareantagonist:[quote author=Fr. Kukah]The patron charges anyone exposing this hypocrisy with unbelief or at best those who have abandoned the true religion as ordained by God.[/quote] |
Bros, 1. My Christian conviction does not tell me to condemn the other man of his religious conviction, as I won't want him to do mine. I believe the bother line stops at the point I am persuaded to share the gospel with him and out of his own volition he accepts Christ. 2. I also acknowledge that we live in a cosmopolitan society and a constitution that gives every Nigeria the right to practice his/her religion, a constitution that recognizes Sharia in the first place. I've never shied from ascerting my spiritual convictions, yet I am pragmatic enough to live peaceably with all men. as the scripture wont us to do 3. Now to your issues.....First off, I'll be disciplined to address these issues primarily from the topic of discussion before delving into deviations you've introduced. My preoccupation here is that we put the truth on the plate with regards to the allegations spread in the media by GEJ machinery and PDP. Has that been debunked Coincidentally APC has also taken the gauntlet to sensitize people on same.4. Ok let's see the deviations. If you choose to vote along ethnic, tribal, religious and regional lines fine by you. My only objection is that hardly can merit be in the mix. it's too complicated. As soon as Osinbajo's name was announced, have you seen any negative report about his competence and integrity? Have you even heard people will support GMB because of where Osinbajo comes from? Despite being an in-law to Awolowo family, have APC even tabled that as a selling point? Have they ridden on his Pastorship of in Redeem? Everything mentioned about him has been about his antecedents, his integrity and competence. 5. So it every other thing had shaped your choice of Jonathan, then I submit that every other thing in place for GEJ but merit 6. Let's not go into sentiments. Two wrongs will never make a right. If we collectively feel the injustice of the quota system, then that is a different issue. It should not be used as basis to justify outright lies against the candidature of GMB. I don't know the workings of the PTDF scholarship, but I do know that what has been published in the newspapers lately has shown a defined balance, even skewed in favour of the producing communities. There is no scientific proof that if things are done solely on merit, the North will loose. 7. Now the part in bold is where you got me to even question any iota of integrity you claim. Don't worry about my accompaniment as it makes no meaning to you. But I type currently from my Hotel room, pursing the highest level academic pursuit. Besides I will not claim no favours came my way as no man can do so, but it is important to state that 2 wrongs don't make a right. If roles a reversed today and the cut-off marks on common entrance was reduced to 2 for south-south states, will that assuage your ill-feeling? Is the desertification and probably destructon of the north enough price for you? That you endorse corruption is no surprised, Jonathan has done so many times. but bros we do not share the same value system 8. But I should have sensed that I was in debate with a South-South Crusader. I make no bid to convince you otherwise with ownership of oil. I have long concluded it an exercise in futility. But I pray one day you guys we realise that you will enjoy "your Oil money"better with a competent leader in the saddle DDeliverer: |
hushmail:1. Bros let's review the situation in 2 folds. I have submitted that from my findings, we have the issue of correct translation. The hausa "Kare jinni birin jinni" has it's literal meaning, yet was misconstrued. That is yet to be debunked. 2. to the best of my knowledge, what Buhari said to his CPC deligates in Hausa is "a kasa; a tsare; a raka" which literally told the electorate to vote, protect the votes and follow up to the points of counting/collation. - See more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/05/muhammadu-buhari-the-meaning-and-politics-of-language/#sthash.htMpAszM.dpuf |

Bros, why are you show some comprehension issues........ I just told you the Buhari spoke in hausa and spoke a popular proverb which means "competition will be fierce". It is the media pps that should answer the question of the mistranslation. Pinning the death of NYSC on Buhari is begging the issue...... I have rightly quoted Fr. Kukah's article and rightly in context, because by the time you realise the "Patron" is simply taking advantage of you lot, using religion and ethnicity, provide you continue to graze in his field of deceit, while he achieves his aim of keeping you down, ignorant and lacking in knowledge. hushmail: |
MuguliciousMUGU:Bros......ok we hear you. So GEJ mandate the contractor to make sure he replicate the same estate in Kano and plant Lagos State Waste Management Authority(LAWMA) waste baskets in front of each house in Kano ![]() |
zigger:Nope. Just a Nigerian, yet choose to be ideal |
hushmail:1. Bros, I think Fr. Kukah himself had helped me to open my reaction to you in his article [quote author=Fr. Kukah]know that many readers who have rather made up their minds and would rather remain in their laagers will accuse me of blindly supporting the General, pandering to the North, or even trivializing what they consider to be a serious issue. It might also be said that the General may have settled me, as is common with us whenever anyone dares to beat a track away from the popular and wide road tarred with prejudice. They will wonder why I have broken ranks with my own tribe when all good Christians ought to have stood on one side.[/quote]2. I don't think you read my posers well enough, neither do I think you understood it. I do not disagree with you that you studied English, but guess what? Buhari did not make the alleged statement in English. It was our media, probably who didn't understand Hausa that did. 3. Neither did he say Muslim should vote for Muslim. Bros, I wonder your recalcitrant attitude when evidence abound. https://www.nairaland.com/599987/rev-father-mathew-hassan-kukah 4. I threw the challenge that all these allegation and rebuttal be prove. Please prove the allegation to "Sharilize" Nigeria. Let's make this discourse worth the while and not just bear parlour supposition (check my ps). Please provide substantial evidence.... PS: I was at the Driver's licensing office lately and while we were waiting, discussion on politics ensued. Very interesting I must say. But what I found most intriguing was that the most vociferous, arguing a lot on wrong premise and assumption and false information, yet with audacity, could not read or write, could not remember his DOB/age when the FRSC officers wanted to do his data capture ![]() |
DDeliverer:........ I think you should seek Buhari himself to answer your question then. But if I may ask, what if he does? He's a muslim and he's entitled to his religious beliefs. Do you support your church doctorines? (that is if you're a Christian) Meanwhile sorry for my seeming overestimation in quoting Fr. Kukah's analysis........... simply put, some of us are wiser and sees through the charade than to let the deception from "leaders" (including Christians and Muslims) to use religion as a weapon rather than address the real pertinent issues |
eaglechild:Bros, 1. The General does not need to undo what he didn't do in the first place.[quote author=Fr. Kukah]Secondly that General Buhari would consider it beneath him to come our defending himself. Anyone remotely familiar with the mind of a Northern Muslim would concede that the General would remain calm and philosophical, believing in the judgment of his conscience on the one had and that of Allah on the other.[/quote]2. It is we that should not allow the "Patron" as described by Fr. Kukah to drag us in the cesspit of ignorance, deception and destruction |
DDeliverer:Bros, 1. Sharia is not my forte. I am a Christian in good standing with assurance of my salvation. But like Fr. Kukah, I am very pragmatic of the world we live in. 2. Only Buhari himself can answer the question of his support for Sharia. I believe he's done so, save for misrepresentation of his views by media. 3. Perharps I should lift some of the words in Fr. Kukah's article maybe it would assuage your thirst...... Fr Kukah: What this issue raises for me is the way Nigerians generally react in the face of the public discourse on very sore but deeply important issues, especially religion. We all retreat into our cocoons of prejudice and from that comfort, we continue to throw stones at the centre, defending our own but also raising the tensions. The result is that we fail to realize the extent of the damage done to our institutions, causes and integrity. I know that many readers who have rather made up their minds and would rather remain in their laagers will accuse me of blindly supporting the General, pandering to the North, or even trivializing what they consider to be a serious issue. |

I have always accused NLers and lots of young folks in Nigeria, that we are so lazy, we just gobble up and regurgitate falsehood instead of doing simple research. so let's make this simpler. Can anybody give evidence either to authenticate my clarification or to rebut it. I believe this clarity are needed to add a positive perspective to the preparation for the elections |
...that he will make Nigeria ungovernable......... Fact: The statement was actually made by Lawal Kaita, currently a PDP member from the North who said if a Notherner doesn't win the 2011 election, they will make Nigeria ungovernable. Guardian Newspaper published an article written by Reuben Abati, claiming that Buhari made that statement. Buhari sued both Guardian and Abati. The presidency begged Buhari to settle out of court, which he did. An apology was printed in the same Guardian retracting the false claims .....that Muslims should only vote for Muslims........... Fact Buhari never said that. He gave a speech in Sokoto in 2001, at a launching in Hausa language. what he said was people in Sokoto knows themselves, so when the ban on politics is lifted, they should choose responsible leaders to represent them. The reporter that wrote the story is a notorious Hammed Oyerinde, a Yoruba man who was not at the event, and did not understand nor speak Hausa, yet produced the story. Few days after, Bishop Matthew Kukah, visited Buhari, challenging him on the alleged statement. Buhari told Father Kukah that his speech at the event was tapped and he should listen to the tape. Many people had listened to the tape, and found out what Buhari truly said. Hammed Oyerinde later confessed that he wasn't at the event and that he doesn't understand Hausa......the big question was, so why did Oyerinde cook up the story? Hammed Oyerinde's antecedents dates back to when he was accused of taking bribes and fabricating stories. He was disciplined by the Nigerian Press watchdog.... ..................spill the blood of dogs and baboons............... Fact: Buhari quoted a popular Hausa proverb - "Kare jinni birin jinni" direct translation - If a dog bites a monkey, both will end up bloody, contextual meaning - this competition will be fierce. Buhari never spoke in English, and this is even a popular proverb used freely in the north. For example if Kano Pillars are scheduled to have a soccer league game with Gombe united, fans from both side use the proverb to predict the outcome of the anticipated match. How the media interpreted it to mean blood of dogs and baboon is unfortunate .........total implementation of Sharia in all Nigerian States.................... Fact: Buhari had clarified this and wondered why he will make such a statement, especially in a cosmopolitan Nigeria ......PDP's allegation that Buhari made Nigeria join OIC....... Fact: Buhari refused to sign Nigeria up to OIC. It was IBB (Babangida) that signed Nigeria up to OIC. Funnily enough in 2013 GEJ led the Nigerian delegates to OIC. |
I thought I was the only one that saw it. First off, of the few that bother to read the article, many on NL seems not to pause and analyze the logic of it. 1. GMB's unfettered access to SE & SS as claimed is normal and should be the ideal. Every citizen has the right to move about and carry our legitimate endeavours. It is not about the purported welcoming nature of the opposition as claimed 2. Violence and skirmishes have always come prior to, during and after the elections and it is the duty of law enforcement agencies to prevent, arrest and prosecute the offenders. I don't understand the recourse to throw such back and lay the blame on opposition 3. On the issue of APC's threat to form a parallel government, I think the issue that should be looked at it the precondition. Do we want a Free and Fair election? Should we allow elections to be rigged? are we to just allow some few to desecrate our electoral institution just for their selfish aim...... For me the writer's intelligence is scratch.....

Sacluxpaint:@ Bros Sacluxpaint,mikeansy: Just before Fashola becomes boastful about his records he should take a drive around Lagos It is needless to engage the guy in argument. He's chosen to argue dumb and remain recalcitrant. His comparison of Lagos to New York is as baseless as anything. Come to think of it, some of this guys have not even gone beyond their villages, yet makes comparison of few places they've seen only on TV |

eleko1:Ok, I think it's high time we begin to educate some of these juveniles. Some as they have written, their "fathers" have told them stories from biased and bigoted position, some confusing and some outright liesAdminisher: I am an APC supporter but on this story of queues for commodities he did not a lie. The only problem is that he was criticizing something that was good and most Nigerians supported.You are so on point,God bless U.I'm aware of d scenario but Jona is trying to use the issue then to paint BUHARI in bad light,he should tell us the whereabouts the missing $20 and the FR money left by OBJ/Yar Adua and not milk issue.Bet,can somebody who can't afford to buy shoes buy milk? Who remembers adverts and jingles in the 80s during GMB first missionary journey? 1. There was one that encouraged queuing up at Bus Stops, Banking halls and public places 2. There was ban on Urinating and defecating in public places, bush etc 3. If my memory serves me right, environmental sanitation probably took it's root here ....and many more. Who has been around since the 80s?

anonimi:Bros,pendy79: Yeah just like how senator Ahmed makarfi directed the Minister of petroleum and the president to resubmit already spent money they claim were for Kerosene subsidy payment to the National Assembly as Supplementary Budget Approvals to help them cover up the extra budgetary expenses, Didnt the NNPC said it was paying its contractors and joint ventures partners before remittances to the federation Account ? Were that national assembly approvals too?I don't need insults as I did not request any. Let it rest, you have been intellectually sucker-punched...... your dumb assertions have been thrashed....deal with it ![]() |
Job Creation: Job creation does not necessarily have an umbilical chord with Oil price decline or value of Naira. Job creation is rather the necessary stimulant to revive the economy. So adducing the Oil price decline and attendant impact on the economy of late as the reason for the abysmal level of unemployment deficit is wrong. Job creation is a primarily a social contract of the government to the citizen, a provision of security that each citizen will be gainfully employed for the common good. That is why APC government promises to pay post-NYSC allowance. Basic Economics tells us that government can create jobs by increasing government spending especially in the areas of public infrastructure development. Job creation is not necessarily the "I beg to apply" stuff. It says government will make available jobs from the basic level e.g. Farmers, street sweepers, Medics, Community Policing, Waste Management/Recycling etc. For example, APC is taking to a national level Aregbesola's classic School feeding program. Imagine that for each Nigerian primary school Child to be fed, it means new jobs for Tailors, Farmers, Cattle Rears and Ranchers, Poultry Breeders, Packagers, Bottlers, transporters etc..... |
youngalex:Bros, Buhari had already answered all 3 questions in many past fora 1. Buhari had wondered why a Nigerian Army, noted and reputed globally for her feat in Liberia, Congo, Sudan, Serra Leone will be suffering such embarrasement....... He said GEJ's government left what he should have started with to the late hour. He said the first step was to have addressed the sources of entry, training camps, funding and weapons supply of Boko Haram. Buhari made mention that GEJ as a first step should have called a meeting of Presidents of boarder countries, through which BH receive support in terms of foot soldiers, weapons and funds. He would form a joint military operations unit to take the battle to BH from all these sources. GMB also talked about the quality of weapons of the Nigerian Army (On another platform I will tell you some of the inside info I know about this), how our armory have been largely left in yester-years mode and how BH many attimes have superior weapons. Might I add that GMB had proven his mettle in this area in the 80s (with the Maitatshe Group), so he's proven in this regard.... 2. GMB had rightly identified that a critical thing to do is to first address the area of corruption, sleaze and waste. If $20billion can get missing (an amount that can deliver more than 10GW of power) and many more of such that had gone unchallenged....then we are getting off to a good start. He had said the development of other critical sectors are mid-term objective, but the oil industry needs to be stabilized to get our economy back on track. The reality is that when Oil was $100, we wasted opportunity to leverage and develop the economy, so we have little option now but to cut our losses, tighten the leakages and get back on track. Oil proceeds should be used to accelerate infrastructural development to open up the economy to true and proven play...... 3. This is straight forward. First off is that he will not only select proven skilled and highly resourced men, but men with integrity. Yemi Osinbajo is re-echoing GMB's matra - Lead from the front If the president and VP comes in without corruption, then why should a minister be and when found why should such not be jailed |

Coincidentally APC has also taken the gauntlet to sensitize people on same.
