So You really believe that Buhari has just 1million in his account

If I was gullible yes, but am not.
Still waiting for Buhari to explain what happened to the $2.8billion he stole in 1978? Last we heard of that money was it was deposited in midlamd bank UK.

185 Naira to a Dollar

16 Local government ceded to boko Haram

Foreign reserve depleted.

Inflation now 15%

Nigerians now wiser and ready for a change!

And how would Buhari go about energising the economy, by stabilising world Oil prices abi? Thanks for agreeing Nigerians are wiser, in that case, can't see them voting a man who has remained idle since retirement.

NgeneUkwenu:
The article was written last 6 months by Simon Kolawole! Stop consoling yourself, jonagoat is gonna!

What has changed since then, apart from the infighting in APC?

laimo:
Mogidi,can you read the last few sentences of your article from Simon Kolawole.

If you do,you'll find the inference that the writer can not stand to beat his chest that Jonathan will win.

You shouldn't too.

All I can derive from your submission is amusement.Why not go to bed if you're so sure Jonathan will win?

You're still here because you know the truth:every election is different in demographics and in the next one,all pointers are to a Buhari victory.
You know it and I know it even subconsciously.

I posted that link because Kolawole is a Buhari supporter, even his most ardent supporters knows he can't win.

atlwireles:
Most of them in APC lie to themselves to feel better. When they know within themselves, that Buhari will be dealt the same hand as 2011. The only state Buhari might win in 2015, that was not won by him in 2011 is kwara.

Bros let them continue to dream, Buhari will end up ruling the internet.

HOW GEJ WILL WIN 2015

by Simon Kolawole
(Former This day editor)

This analysis was written by Simon Kolawole, reputed ex This day editor and owner of The Cable newspaper. Kolawole is noted for being a strong supporter of Gen Buhari and one of his closest media allies. That said, he remains a very unbiased and respected columnist. Here is his take on next year's race
I have been listening to comments and reading analyses on the 2015 presidential election with rapt attention. There is nothing unanimous in the predictions and projections, but I am sensing a trend in the analyses: that if the All Progressives Congress (APC) fields Maj. General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) against President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), then it will be a piece of cake for the former head of state. A Buhari supporter, in a recent newspaper interview, said Buhari's votes in the North plus Bola Tinubu's votes in the south-west equal automatic victory for APC.


Slow down a bit, guys. I have no intention of raining on anyone's parade or pouring cold water on exciting calculations, but analyses do not have to be this simplistic. If the history and politics of elections in Nigeria are to be of any use in these postulations, the safest bet will be to say there are still many rivers to cross. My intention today is to draw attention to several facts and factors that will be at play during the elections. Many things are still taking shape; opportunities and threats still exist for the PDP and the APC. It is too early in the day to arrive at definite conclusions.


Let us look into some of the assumptions one by one. The first is that Buhari will clear the votes in the core North and Tinubu will deliver the South-west votes in one basket. That Buhari will win in the core North has never been in dispute ─ he has done so consistently since 2003. It is unthinkable that he will not win there. However, I'm not sure Tinubu can clear the South-west the same way Buhari could do in the core North. It appears many commentators have not been monitoring recent developments in the South-west. To start with, two of the six states ─ Ekiti and Ondo ─ are now in the hands of PDP. That is important to note.


Meanwhile, the APC is getting weaker in Oyo state. The three APC senators have left the party; the death of Alhaji Alao Arisekola has dealt some body blow on Governor Abiola Ajimobi; former Governor Adebayo Alao-Akala (PDP) is on a rebound; former Governor Rashidi Ladoja, who controls large portions of Ibadan, is complicating things for APC. In Ogun, Governor Ibikunle Amosun is under fire from within and without. Chief Olusegun Osoba, in whose camp the Ogun APC senators and house members are, is playing hard ball with Amosun. The PDP, meanwhile, is bringing back its break-up groups and rebuilding in the state.


In simple words, Oyo and Ogun have become very shaky and it is a bit tenuous to assume the South-west will vote en bloc for APC in 2015. I may well be wrong, but I am seeing a split of the zone's 13.5 million votes. The South-west, in my opinion, is neither here nor there yet. No assumptions should be made and no conclusions should be reached yet, certainly not in October 2014. Of course, the APC is not sleeping and is also hoping to gain from the fall-outs from PDP's possible slips in the coming weeks. But South-west does not look like one-way traffic as at today.


Meanwhile, there is also this assumption that Buhari ─ or APC ─ does not need the South-east and South-south (SESS). That is ridiculous. First, it is not good for Buhari's CV that he has never won in any Southern state since he launched his presidential bid in 2003. Not one state. And it is also not good political strategy to downplay SESS. There are 11 states in these two geo-political zones. The APC calculation may be that the South-south would rather have a "son of the soil" as president. The South-east, it seems, is fully joined in matrimony to South-south under Jonathan's presidency. But does that mean giving up without a fight?


Let us now reverse the case. Jonathan, despite knowing that the core North will be a difficult hunting ground for him, is putting up a decent fight. He is working to secure as many votes as possible in Buhari's territory. The president has gathered many strong politicians to his side. Now let us do some basic calculations. SESS has 17 million votes combined. Buhari's home zone, North-west, has 18.7 million registered voters. If Jonathan bites off as much as 30-40% of the votes in the North-west (which he did in 2011) while Buhari does poorly in SESS (like before), Jonathan would clearly gain more than Buhari in the candidates' home zones.


Jonathan's chances, in the meantime, are also bright among the Northern minorities. It could be minority solidarity, I can't say. The North-central has 11 million names on the voter register. Jonathan's reconciliation with former military, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, and the governor of Niger State, Dr. Babangida Aliyu, could help him in Niger state. Kogi, Plateau, Nasarawa and Benue would ordinarily back Jonathan. But Kwara, which supported him in 2011, is now uncertain, with the godfather, Bukola Saraki, relocating to APC. Buhari will fancy his chances in Kwara, that is if Saraki can ward off his PDP foes, who look very formidable. In truth, Kwara now looks more like a tight corner for both parties.


The North-east, boasting of 11 million registered voters, could be a mixed bag. Gombe, Bauchi, Yobe and Borno have always gone to Buhari, while Taraba and Adamawa seem to have a thing for Jonathan. But something significant has changed in Borno: Ali Modu Sheriff is now in PDP. Since 1999, Borno has always faced any direction Sheriff pointed to, and his defection must be considered a loss to APC. I was not surprised at APC's reaction when Sheriff left: Borno's 2.5 million votes are the nation's fifth largest after Lagos (5.4m), Kano (4.7m), Kaduna (3.7m) and Katsina (2.9m). Being Buhari's familiar hunting ground, however, Borno could still be game for him.


Before I shut down my computer, I would like to maintain that unlike many observers and analysts, I foresee a very competitive election. And, I think, four months to the polls, we should avoid jumping into certain conclusions. One of the major failings of the opposition is that they underrated Jonathan's ability to respond to the momentum they gained last year. Before they could settle down to savour the heavyweight defections from PDP to APC, the Jonathan camp had launched a counter offensive, in addition to benefitting from crises arising from the consolidation process of APC.


Therefore, dear readers, with what I have seen in Nigeria in the last few months, and what I understand about the dynamics of our electoral politics, I would conclude that the day is still young. For the two leading parties, there are still many hurdles to clear. Let the game begin!

The above article was written by Simon Kolawole a known Buhari supporter and ex This day editor.

Buhari has never won any state outside the North since 2003, GEJ on the other hand has Northern minorities eating out of his hands.

It will take a miracle for the Fulani Muguhari to convince people from these states:
Kogi
Plateau
Nasarawa
Benue
Taraba
Adamawa

The SW will produce Ekiti, Ondo, Oyo, Ogun and Lagos (Buhari may get the required 25%)

Anyone who believe Edo state will vote Buhari needs their heads examined. Even the Oba of Benin endorsed GEJ.

As the election draws nearer, you'd read stories like How Buhari helped Ojukwu during the war..... How Awolowo predicted Buhari would be president in 2015.

Same Buhari tactics failed in 2003, 2007, 2011 and would fail again in 2015.

How would you tackle the issue of corruption?

Buhari One of the things that the we will do is to strengthen the institutions.
We already have the police. We have said that security, prosperity will bring
stability. We have been harping on these three things before.

Looking at the economy today, what are those things you would point at that are fundamental to making the economy prosperous?

Buhari I am not an economist

Buhari is thicker than an Iroko tree, he has no real plans for Nigeria. This man just wants power for power sake.

Whynotthetruth:
Unfortunately, people like you shift the blames like you just did now solely unto GEJ...Sorry, must you politicize everything And what have you done as an individual (true citizen) to stop this carnage in your community? Mind you, [b]if there's no local support & sympathy in terms of intelligence and other logistics; boko haram won't survive [/b]and thrive anywhere in this case, the North.

May God bless your hustle.
Even mighty America together with Europe (NATO) spent over 10yrs trying to dislodge the Talibans. As long as bokoharam have local support, coupled with betrayers in the army, there's very little we can do to end the killings.

Now look at Buhari, I am not saying, he is the best or the worst, but his track record against history is not favourable. He contested in 2003, he lost to OBJ for what ever reason. He went gain in 2007, he lost to the late president, Yar' Adua. He went again in 2011 and lost to Jonathan. Now he is going again.

Mark my words, Buhari will contest in 2019, the man is addicted to election failures, it gives him an opportunity to do what he enjoys doing>crying.
Great article by the way.

In 2011 Buhari said: "This is my last election"

Can you answer the above or should Buhari not keep his promise?

PhockPhockMan:
Hit them hard, they don't deserve mercy.

Like Atiku we will match Buhari dollar for dollar, no shaking.

Sirniyeh:
Becareful, Aisha holds Bachelor Degree and up to standard compare to farm woman who ridicules bachelor degree with her greek languages

A Bachelors degree in cosmetics, she's a real asset to the Nation.

iluvnaija:
Is shepopo scientist? Wow! A woman who called PRINCIPAL "Plispa"?
Chineke!

Talk is cheap, try attaining her academic qualifications before attempting sarcasm.

Patience Jonathan

She holds a National Certificate of Education in Mathematics and Biology and also earned a degree in Biology and Psychology from the University of Port Harcourt.

Aisha Buhari,

diploma in Cosmetology and Beauty Theraphy from the Carlton Institute of London

One is a scientist, the other a hairdresser, there lies the difference.

The beauty of PDP's internal democracy, unlike the former ACN where Tinubu would pick governors from his sitting room.

Presidential candidate Muhammad Buhari has declared open his assets on Facebook.

This guy is a joke right? Did someone not tell Buhari there are proper channels for declaring assets? We want to know where he gets money to share at elections, three presidential elections already.

Before nko!!

xcolanto:
Hey! Mods! Why is b.o.k.ohari now replaced with Buhari? Be guided!!

Its been like that for weeks, I became creative by using other alphabets, nuff said

The lies will increase in the coming days and weeks, expect stories like "How Buhari helped Ojukwu during the war", from APC's minister of propaganda Prof. Lai Lai Mohammed.
Nigerians are too sophisticated not to realize when someone goes all out to promote falsehood.

Caseless:
Afam, thank u for voting buhari in 2011 and, thank u for deciding not to vote him again.
My msg to u is this; if u are corrupt, u cant fight corruption. If u want corruption to stay, dont vote buhari.

But Buhari's anti corruption tag is all he's campaining under. When you realise the same Buhari said on many occasions that Abacha was not corrupt you begin to see the real Buhari.
Buhari only wants power so he can deal with Babangida who threw him off stage in 83.
Nigerians are not about to vote a man just so he can avenge his foe, no way.

I would be donating to the Tompolo organisation, no region have monopoly on violence, especially when the region in question relies on Tompolo's region for subsistence.

I can see Oshiomhole picking the ticket, two years into their rule he would assume power announcing the president died of age related diseases.
Oshiomhole, a man so crafty his own mom disowned him.
