₦airaland Forum

I am one of those who had always advocated for stagered elections in Nigeria. This is because it affords us the opportunity to realy notice our flaws and correct it in subsequent elections. 48, hours from now, Nigeria’s political attentions will be shifted to Osun State where gubernatorial election will be taking place. No doubt APC’s Ogbeni, Rauf Aregbesola and PDP’s Iyiola Omisore. Are the two biggest contenders for the States’ top Job not forgetting the other candidates.

But before this election, this write- up will try to look at some issues.

Firstly, this election should be free, fair and credible. The scenario that played out in the Ekiti State election where opposition members were continously harassed by the millitary should not repeat itself. All political parties should be allowed to conduct their campaign freely provided it does not breach national security. The constitution of this country stipulates freedom of movement and denying some group of people movement amounts to denial of their fundamental human right.
Some group of people who have no reason to disturb the peace of the people should conduct themselves with decorum. A situation whereby some people will be patrolling a State on election day with sirens is totally unaccepted and we ondemn it.

Why was there no debate? Maybe someone should enlighten me if there was. Where is the Nigerian Election Debate Group. I heard PDP’s Candidate Iyiola Omisore ” chickened out of a debate that was organised. Hmmmm. Debates before elections offers the electorates the opportunity of assessing the various candidates running for the position so when they don’t deliver on their mandate the people will know. Please Debate should be part of our electionering process and should be made compulsory.

Osun people please vote wisely. Am appealing to my Osun state brothers, sisters, fathers and mothers please this is the time to decide your future. Don’t base your vote on some bags of even last you one week after the election, not because a candidate is from your locality, that he is a muslim or christian, or that he is from a particular political party. Poverty, wants and lack does not care about all what has been metioned above but will attack anyone. Therefore, for the interest of your future and that of your unborn children, please vote a man that will deliver the dividends of democracy to the people, a man with vision that will bring developmental strides to you. Let your Stomach not decide your vote but your tommorrow.

INEC, repeat what you did in Ekiti State. The Ekiti State election was very free and fair. On the election day i monitored the election with the help of my friends in the State and some friends on Nairaland Forum. Even those who were supporters of the party that lost(APC) confirmed that the elections were free and fair. Including Fayemi himself who lost and accepted defeat. Let the achievements recorded in Ekiti State elections be improved upon.

Lastly, i wish the people of Osun INEC and Nigeria at large a hitch free and sucessful election. May the best candidate emerge.

Liamm: then i won't choose any.

then na die be dat o.

Liamm: LMFAO

HE ASKED YOU FIRST

@THE QUESTION, I'LL CHEW BITTER KOLA THEN OPT FOR EBOLA

hmmm i like ur sense. But wht if dey say u are nt goin to take anything dat u shud just decide on one.

Your enemies paid assassins (Hired killer) to come and kill you in your house. When they got to your house, they decided to have mercy on you and brought out two injections. Ebola virus injection and HIV/AIDS injection. Which one will you choose.

Where were they when wen d whites brought jesus nd mohammed. Why did dey nt resist dem. Nd beside y were dey demanding hard things frm ppl like d left leg of a day old spider. Nd y were there gods brutal toward members. All this made dem lost it.

One thing ppl don't know is dat God is not dumb. Did I hear u say u are prayerful? Does God support fornication? . so becos u pray means d guy will marry u. Or becos u ar beautiful u can't be dumped. Well u ve not said what u rili did wrong. Until u do so I reserve my comment.

chibwike: lets take a look at teams like Chile,Mexico,costa rica and even our african brothers Algeria....these teams can't boast of this Messi's.Neymar's and Cr7's of the world...they are just a blend of talented footballers...that are being tutored by great coaches that knws the game....We ve got the talents and we ve also got the money to hire one of all these great coaches(no disrepect to our african coaches) to come and change our footie for good...WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR??

hv any foreign coach won the worldcup?

Online prostitution, Op do u tink its hard to download indecency?

The person who wrote this article knows nothing abt football the only tin he knows is his hatred on keshi. But shame to him. Sunday oliseh should coach eagles on wht basis where has he proven himself. Or u dey advertise who know send u work. So if dey call football analyst u go come out. SMH.
Keshi has done somethin no oda coach has done in dis country nd all u do is to write trash as if u know hw to coach. I was surprised u neva wrote foreign coach cos ppl like u ar inferior to white. Let me tell u, nonsense wont change Keshis achievement. Rubbish.

If dis is a joke den so be it bt if its not. This is shows serious directionlessness from a post.

Nigeria sure has something to realy keep us relevant on the world map.

hatux: Seriously,Almaroof and Funke Akindele I really felt for the young lady. How I wish I could marry her?

for openin her eyes nd becoming a third abi fourth wife

Can som1 who just graduated apply for the post graduate?

I know this ugly trend did not start with dis present Government but which serious minded Govrnment makes Nyesom Wike the minister of education.

AfricanApple: sweery, wat are u doing still thinking about ur ex, he is ur EX for christ sake, i mean he is past tense and should remain so. whatever makes u break up in d first place should make u never go back, u will end up hurting yourselves a second time. see eh guys mentality is different from ours o, u may be here thinking, 'we can work it out dis time' while he may be there thinking 'i missed dat kpekus, let me have some more taste'. ex is an ex and life goes on without dem.

dnt generalise guys sweerie we ar nt all d same som of us hv our brains ryt nd can work tins out. Nd u telin her move on, hv u heard of destiny?

Hw old is rihanna nd hw old is chris brown. Hw old is bieber nd hw old is selena gomez. Op google nd see y nigeria is so myopic nd bakward. I pity d women most.

AfricanApple: dont u think its foolish to refer to a being as material?

mehn its nt only in women o when i was i sch i use to hear ppl call odas firstclass material. Bt did u get d message?

blizard44: Outright rubbish!



Haven't you a job

i hv o nd one of dem is enlightenin the public abt wht is fact nd makin dem non-vulnerable to some things that many use to confuse odas.
U might nt be pleased wit wht i wrote bt its nt outright rubbish dat i know.

AfricanApple: most of d points are nice and are d truth but wait let me ask u what do u mean by 'wife material'
i mean are u a 'husband material'


and yes its foolish of any lady to say i cant do without him wen he beats her up all d time. she may finally end up dead in his hand one day

my dear wife material, is a woman who posses so many good qualities dat can potentially make a good wife. E.g can cook, keep the house clean, respectful, supporttive, good hearted, caring
does not cheat, will be there in hard times.
Thanks.
As for ur question i am.

This is a response to a self believed, opinionated post by a nairalander (2gbasky22) about 'lsome of the silly things ladies do in the name of love'' I wnt to debunk all wht he has written. To let many here know that those things are normal when som1 is in love and that it has even made some relationship meaninful.
I will quote him exactly nd debunk them.
1. Living in the same room with a man who has
not paid your bride-price or wedded you; this is
foolishness of you.
This is no foolishness it happens nd many hv gone ahead to get married nd even undastand demselves beter. Abi lola(peter's wife is also silly) i know many deeper life ppl dat hv regreted their marriage cos dey dnt even know hw each oda taste b4 marriage. So who com foolish.

2. Accepting to be a second wife. Yu are a living
dead, you have a better option, yu better think.
I agree with this. Bt dat does nt justify ur post.

3. Wearing the engagement ring of a man who
doesn't even know your parents or house. You
are wasting yur time & blessing.
I dnt think so, Hv u asked urself, what if there parents are far away? My uncle went to Americca spent 5 yrs there nd came bak with a woman that is wearing his engagement ring. So my uncle shud waste d ladies time waiting d day he introduces her to us b4 he proposes. He himself never met d gals parents she only told dem she has found som1 nd dey were happy. Nigerians shud grow up.

4. Using your boyfriend's picture as your profile
picture on Facebook, thus blocking serious and
potential suitors. Hey, you have missed it all.
She has missed nothin maybe u dnt know wht dey call serious relationship. Except d lady is dating som1 like u dat hv d intention of disapointing women y not. do u know that som of us dis things move us to even love d lady more. Again its courageous, how many of dis madly cheating gals can do that. D man she is puting up his pix is he also not a potential suitor?

5. Giving your virginity to a man who has not
paid your bride-price. You have lost yur dignity
in life.
Are your sisters virgin? How many women are virgin in the world. So almost 90% of women have lost their dignity in life. SMH.
6. Cooking food regularly and washing clothes
for your boyfriend. That was a big mistake of
yur life.

Big lie, that has been d best step that some women took and their breakthrough came. So whats dating and courtship if all these are not involved. Or how do you recognise a wife material. Maybe wen she come to ur house, u both engage in fasting and prayer. Any lady who would give in to what you wrote above will end up like my neighbour here. (40 nd still searhing).

7. Disobeying your parents for the sake of a
man you are dating. You are out of yur brain.

Mr. Man there are sometimes dat disobedience is justified. Sometimes our parents think d world will remain d same. Bt no it is dynamic. Now, my friend was dating a guy nd d parents disagreed with d relationship that d guy was an osu bt my friend sweared to continue d relationship. Abeg dat one na disobedience. Those who think one sided end up inside a pit.

8. Giving sex to a man simply because he
promised to marry you. Haba! Na only yhu waka come?

Dnt hv answer to you for this cos its foolish for any lady to do this bt not all ladies.

9. Sending your Unclad pictures to your
boyfriend. Chaii dia is God O! shame on yhu

Depends on the two people involved if this will make the both of you happy, y not. Is it a crime. So long no one exposes it. Abi u never hear of private matter.

10. A man will beat you and you will still be
saying that you can not do without him; hmm

This is wrong but some men do repent from this. Believing that your man will change is nt being silly afterall GEJ beat us everyday but there ar those who believe he shud stiil be there in 2015.

11. A man cheats on you and you still say that
you can never quit him, Hmm you need prayer. And hot factory reset slap.

How many men do you think dont cheat. Abi you never cheat before?
Whats the gurantee that the next man wont cheat on her. So all the married women that their husband cheat on them also need prayers and factory reset hot slap.
So they shud keep changing men when dey cheat, den na angel gabriel go marry dem.

Sometimes people should sctrutinise what they bring to the public.
Nobody has the manual of life.
Thanks.

@Topic, this book is a shadow of Christ's love for the church. It should be taken figuratively, and not literarily.
The problem is many shallow christians are fond of misinterpreting this lovely book.[/quote
so two bossoms nd oda erotic words in SOS ar also christ love for d church. So who ar d two bossoms.
Who is shallow minded here.

aresa: This useless man goofs all the time, he disgraces and embarrass Nigerians everyday, but unfortunately for Nigerians, he's spending their money to clean up his mess while at the same time making a fool of himself all over again.

Money and image laundering can not buy competence, money can not not buy brains and good judgment, money can not stop or erase your corrupt ways like covering corruption, protecting and appointing corrupt people to work for you.

The stupid editorial you wasted our money on wont stop you from goofing tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it wont even bring back our girls.

Our military boys and girls are underpaid and ill equipped, but you refused to support and yield to their needs and instead you are spending tons of tax payers money to clean up what you really can not clean because you are naturally incompetent and corrupt.

You can not keep asking the world to see you in a different light while at the same time not doing what you are supposed to do.

It cost nothing for Nigerians and the world to see you in a good light, you don't even have to buy their attention, your work and efforts is enough to buy all the good image on the surface of the earth.

In your Op-Ed, you said you are care and returning the girls to their parents is your immediate priority, but this is a lie not only because for weeks you refused to admit that the girls were missing, you refused to say a word or console Nigerians and instead went dancing in Kano, your own wife and the woman you sleep with not only didn't believe that the girls were missing, she used tax payers funded TV and media to ridicule and abuse them on National TV.

Why not let the world see your efforts?

Why not let the world see you showing bravery and leadership?

Why not rescue the girls first and let the world make up their own mind if you really are a caring man or not?

Why not let the world see you fight corruption with all the tools at your disposal?

Why not stop protecting and shielding the corrupt people you hang around with?

Why not stop making childish, idiotic, foolish and irresponsible statements like stealing is not corruption?

You can not buy goodwill with money, let your actions speak for you, let the world see you at work, let the world see you showing leadership, let the world see you bring back our girls, let the world see you fight corruption and put corrupt people in jail, let the world see you stop appointing and surrounding yourself with corrupt people.

All the above steps cost nothing so stop wasting taxpayers money on fools gold.

after all dis he still wnts to contest 2015 election. Bt is Jonathan high?

If dis man channel the energy he uses in fighting som Govonors to fight dis BH boys, dey wud hv been history.

In as much as i undastand that many who post here ar just like d everyday Nigerians i meet on d street with limited reasoning. Y on earth will anybody startup such thread. Do u knw wht led to NL shutdown, do u knw d legal implication of wht seun is goin tru, do u knw if its cos of one of ur dust bin threads. Many of u just think you can start up nonsens nd expect it not to be checked pls Op do somtin else befor u land urself in troble.

equlibrium: By God's grace I will have left this wretched country for good. Leave behind all the APC, PDP, pastors, imams and the maggots that follow them all blindly.
In Nigeria I have lost my faith in God (thank you very much jet flying kleptopastors, boko haramers and there e-defenders), faith in man (thank you all PDP and APC e-rats calling white, black just so you can defend the indefensible), faith in sanity (when hundreds of thousands of ekiti people vote for rice for a day, just to usher in a known killer/murderer. P.s dis nigga frm ekiti) and faith in equity, justice, opportunity for all etc.
I have no faith in anything anymore. I have seen suffering everyday (have a great job and all so this isn't a starving man's rant), bombings everyday, pain everywhere but must importantly, I have seen Nigerians become desensitised to it all. They blame the other person, the other religion, the other tribe, the former president, the former governor, anyone but the people responsible for the situation we are presently in.
I have had enough.
So to answer your question, will I vote jonathan in 2015? No!!!!!
Not cos I have a better candidate in mind to vote for, but because I hope to have left all this rot and madness and mindlessness behind.
Now over to you e-rats of religion and politics, it wouldn't be the same without you guys attacking me afteral

may you wish for in life let all those who feel liein just to support a political party know dat 2moro is recording your today.

ichidodo: [color=#1980BC] The recent APC sponsored e-blast on nairaland has lost me my penchance for wishin birthdays or any goodwill thoughts to any APC entities....... [/color]

must you show how stunted your brain is, must u degenerate youself to som1 who never undastud anythin while in primary school, Must you spew rubbish like som1 who has stomach upset, must you allow yourself exist without reasonin nd meaninful contribution to any issue, must you act like disposed wastebin. Wht has d painful attack on a Social network got to do with APC. Can you prove wht you ar typin in public. Pls kip ur dirtness indoors nd dnt bring it to d public.
