@Poster, you go ask them where the 1000MW come from . . . abi why we too dey act like mugu? If the man no build power plant and if Yar adua himself no build power plant, how can they add what they did not even invest in?

Let me help you . . . remember when Obasanjo left office in 2007, and we knew that the man had already invested money in the construction of power plants but many of them needed to have gas delivered --- essentially for the federal to sign a go ahead for that to happen? Remember it was left to the Yar adua administration to simply supply gas to the plants signed and contracted by Obasanjo? Well, it took Yar adua and Jonathan this long to accomplish what they promised they would do as soon as they got into office. So, how in the world are we now giving credit to Jonathan for work they should have done in credit to Obasanjo? Let's stop letting these people deceive us with their lies!

This will work fine in the State capitals and places like Warri & Aba. I bet you the remote LGA DO NOT have MTN/GLO offices.

We might as well save our breathes for complaining. It is a systemic problem. can we all stop to imagine for one second the following:

1. that NIPOST had evolved organically since Independence 50 years ago.
    (Many people even in the hinterlands and valleys would have access to surface mail using REGISTERED P.M.Bs & P.O.Boxes that are close to them)

2. that FRSC had a reliable database since 1991 of our drivers licenses
   (All persons 18 and above who drive would be known, finger-printed and face scanned every 3 years on expiration/renewal cycles)

3. that Land C of Os (for land ownership) were duly registered all over the country
   (All persons rich enough to own land would be known)

4. that Birth & Death certificates were being tracked
   (Of all the above, we would be able to identify new, active and inactive records and annotate as appropriate)

5. that our International Passport was being issued diligently by NIS
   (All persons in the Diaspora would be known)

6. that NECO & JAMB (which are FULLY Nigerian Exam Bodies) students was being properly administered and recorded
   (All our secondary school students sitting for the exam and becoming undergrads would be known to have reached voting age)

There are more Points of Reference, but the foregoing are just a few. The icing on the cake is that INEC would only need to constitute a SYNERGY Committee across board and using simple VENN DIAGRAM/SET THEORY, compile an accurate and up to date VOTERS REGISTER.

When the register is published, all persons who did not see their names on it can file a complaint and the same Synergy Committee would annotate as appropriate.

Are you all with me?

Gbawe:

Even as it is early days, I must grudgingly admit that it appears as if Jonathan is giving the Judiciary a free hand . Mr. President will be aware that a State lost to the ACN is another blow to his own 2011 Presidential ambition. For most Nigerian Politicians , there is no bigger incentive to arm-twist the judiciary than selfish personal ambition. On the other hand , this may not have much to do with GEJ . He may simply fall short , in comparison  to OBJ et al , as a consumate bruiser and bully.

Gbawe:

He has not really gotten his way when he has attempted unpopular actions because other politicians have matched him .
We have all see Jonathan being undemocratic and opportunist like most politicians . For that reason I am loathe to believe he is now an unbending adherent of the rule of law. Tinubu and the ACN may simply have ensured they countered the PDP , [b]under GEJ , effectively. [/b]

[size=13pt]Transcript Of Henry Okah's Interview On Al Jazeera[/size]

Henry Okah: On Saturday morning, just a day after the attack, a very close associate of President Jonathan called me and explained to me that there had been a bombing in Nigeria and that President Jonathan wanted me to reach out to the group, Mend, and get them to retract the earlier statement they had issued claiming the attacks.

Total Lie, His house has been searched before the Bombing,

They wanted to blame the attacks on northerners who are trying to fight against him [Jonathan] to come back as president and if this was done, I was not going to have any problems with the South African government. I declined to do this and few hours later I was arrested. It was based on their belief that I was going to do that that President Jonathan issued a statement claiming that MEND didn't carry out the attack because they were expecting a kind of retraction from the group

Rubbish- The president said that nobody should hide under the banner of MEND or ND to commit a crime, It is on record that MEND has accepted Amnesty , thousands of its member had disarmed and are being paid welfare benefit,  You cant in one breadth accept that MEND has accepted Amnesty and say they are still fighting, So the president was right in his statement,  All the known leaders of MEND have dissassociated themselves from the attack bar Jomo Gbomo\Okah,  And Most ND are against the attack,  If criminal elements who were members of the now disarmed MEND, can it be said that MEND carried out the Operation, Should we now then be arresting known members of MEND, people should just use their common sense,  The resurgent bombing in Northern Ireland after the Good Friday Agreement are not attributed to the IRA , but to dissident republicans or a newer group Real IRA,

Aljazeera: So just to be clear, why do you think that political aide was asking you to ask MEND to make that retraction? What was the reason for that?

Henry Okah: They don't want it to seem as if Jonathan does not have the support of his people, you understand? For months now they have been lying to everybody that everybody is so pleased with Jonathan, that he is going to bring peace to the region which is entirely false.

This attack now was actually going to be a great smear on his aspiration. They just needed the group to retract that statement which was why I was contacted. But I declined to make any such move.

Rubbish- No Presidential Candidate has the Total Support of his Region, e.g OBJ,  GEJ doesn't require the whole of ND to support him,  Am not even a GEJ fan and am almost writing an epistle to defend him,  Okah's action and that of the IBB camp and the Ciroma camp will all but tilt voters towards GEJ,

Aljazeera: As far as MEND is concerned, what is the situation with MEND, because Goodluck Jonathan is trying to say that this group is not a problem anymore; the previous president had tried amnesty and rehabilitation programmes, can you give us a summary of what the situation is with MEND?

Aljazeera: Are you saying none of these concerns you have are been addressed by the government?

Absolutely none. With Yar'adua it was much better. He had a good understanding of the problem. And regardless of the fact that he was from the north he was making good attempt at addressing these problems. But with Jonathan it is entirely a different story. He doesn't know what the problems are and is also being tele-guided by other people, you know, who are giving him very bad advice.

Absolute Rubbish- As others had said - by the time the amnesty was signed till date all actions like the training and rehabilitation of Militants; Releasing of substantial budget to the NDDC and Ministry of ND where all the works of GEJ,  I hate it when idiots like Okah's distort facts to achieve their own ambition, and rubbishing the whole country and the office of the presidency,  really, jonathan needs a fani-kayode type of person, to take on idoits like this and the ciroma's group,  this GEJ guy's seems too docile,  If GEJ needs to railroad his opponents none of this guys will come out of EFCC or ICPC investigation clean, IS it IBB or Atiku or Saraki, 

Aljazeera: So Henry what do you think is going to happen to you now?


I don't care, I really couldn't care. But one thing I tell you for sure, is just like I was able to talk to you, it only shows that South Africa is not like Nigeria. In Nigeria I was held for one year and four months in solitary confinement. I didn't kill anybody, I had no books, no newspapers, no TV, no radio, not even electrified. But the fact that I can speak to you on phone, even though I am being detained, shows that I am in an entirely different country from Nigeria.

And I am arrested here at the instance of Nigeria, which threatened the South African government with diplomatic action if they didn't arrest me. That is the only reason why I am in detention. All those people I learnt have been arrested in Nigeria I have no contact with any of them, I don't even know them.

They are just trying to do this thing, to point the finger at other political opponents in order to scuttle their attempts at being president. But as you see I am not a politician and I have no any business with any of the other aspirants for the posts of president in Nigeria. I have no connection with them. The story that I have been given a lot of money by different politicians to do one thing or the other, but I promise you I don't even have that kind of money myself. I don't have money.

McEachran was born to play footie!

Kobojunkie:

It is also good to get things right. That we like to credit Idiagbon for the war on corruption DOES NOT REMOVE FROM the fact that it was all under Buhari's watch. I like to get people thinking on what really happened back then. This was a time in our history when we had a PRESIDENT accept he did not have all the answers, move aside for his second in command to lead on most of the important issues resulting in the change we all noticed in that nation. That was good leadership, if nothing else. That Buhari was able to accept the ideas of his VP and actually let him, Idiagbon, have such opportunity to change things his way, shows him the sort of leader we need now, and not later.

Now, I am not campaigning for the man but from what I see, he seems to best candidate considering the Ribadu's and the Goodlucks all seem to be running on their popularity(Goodluck because of the way he has risen up the ranks without even needing to lift a finger but only align himself with the baddest of the bad; Ribadu rising because after years of enjoying safety under Obj and doing OBJ's bidding, but suddenly cut down by Yar adua and made hero by some as a result), and link to the big names(crooks mostly) and nothing else.

jmoore:

If Ribadu did well in EFCC, Orji Uzor, Ibori and co should be in prison by now. The man is a big joke! Most of you that are voting for ribadu are only priviledge because of access to information[b]. Ask that woman wey dey sell akara, she does not know who ribadu is[/b]. The man will fail like a big earthquake!

Kobojunkie:

[b]Not tainted directly, fine [/b]but his past boss, under whom he was able to win his medal as fighter of corruption happens to be one of the most corrupt individuals in the nation even to this day and back then. Possibly, this man still aligns himself with some corrupt so he can get where he wants in this.

Why does BUhari come next and not before Ribadu when it comes to those who are not tainted in corruption and actually fought against it?

Rally what troops? Last I checked, the whole nation is still very very divided on what really happened.

Kobojunkie:

Pull back a bit . . . he fought corruption OR he went after those his then oga(Obasanjo) suggested he should? There is a difference between fighting corruption and fighting corruption as suggested .
