PEREP:
One thing the APC has successfully done is to tell us about 1 million pple that attended their rallies mean all Nigerians are yearning for a change only guaranteed in a Buhari Presidency.

All their supporters have remained so confident like we got the votes already forgetting that over 60 Million voters are out there.

They have called everyone who opposes their change view with some passion like in a war situation. From responses by the Top contenders, one cannot but see through why this is the prevalent issue.

Postponement of election will amount to Coup - Buhari
Elections are between Brothers and Sisters - GEJ

From the above, one can see and feel the most desperate of the two.

During the signing of accord by the political parties, Buhari commented that 'It is impossible to take power from the ruling party Legitimately' while Jonathan stated that Nigerin needs to embrace a system that discourages 'Winner takes it all' and he preaches inclusive government as much as possible (this I believe was why he called all the opposition for way forward after 2011 elections)

I am worried that Fashola insists that elections must go on when less than 40 percent of Lagosians have their PVCs. The same with Rochas too. They were all happy because the North already have the highest number of voters with PVCs and as such GMB will simply win the election.

Nigerians now have a new power (freedom to express our views) and we better use it to our advantage by giving suggestions to government rather than bringing it all down.

No matter the President, a populace with our attitude might not get the best out of our political space.

In my opinion, Nigeria is 'Work in Progress' and we will POSSIBLY not be talking about all these if we had practised democracy since 1979 till date but instead of defending democracy, it was scuttled.

This postponement will calm nerves and we hope the two major contenders will preach more of peace, peace and peace.

The law is the law, Jega is not INEC, INEC is an institution with other capable people to carry with the assignment.

KwoiZabo:
He also called APC all progressive CONFIDENCE. He tried anyway but Buhari still remains a regional champion and cannot appeal to Nigerians beyond the NE and NW. It's easier said than done. Apart from Insurgency, security Naionwide has improved since GEJ came on board also Buhari has never told us how to tackle other of Nigerian's problems like Power, Economy, regional autonomy, Federal character, infrastructure, foreign relations etc. Also looking at the diversity of the Country, it's safer to allow our slow but steady progress under GEJ than the radical change APC is proposing which is not feasible 'coz the APC leadership is more corrupt than the sitting govt.
Finally APC is still the Oluwole party that just wants power not the interest of Nigerians.

#till 2019 - GEJ

koikoi2:
Jega's tenure will soon expire by June after d elections. There is nothing wrong in shopping for a replacement from now.

Nigerians just like to cause unnecessary panic and portray Jonathan as a desperado.

GEJ til 2019

londoner:
People can just as well ask him, how hard he has been praying for BH insurgency to stop and for God to intervene?

I'm sure he will be preaching prayer, supplication,fasting to his flock.....oh yes and tithes.

He is speaking as a politician, nothing more but then, that is what he is now. He now has a more profitable hustle.

datguru:
Why the rantings? It has been done already. Lets plan ahead please. GEJ until osibanjo embraces the Christ life that makes Christians. This man's salvation is questionable

Revealations have been every were but my people fail to see it please go to kingdomnewsng.com.....prevent muslim brother hood before its too late

jpaul5:
These are Pastor Bakare’s own words. Where is the propaganda there? The writer is just trying to sensationalise by bringing Osinbajo’s case into it but you cannot deny what Bakare said. And if you follow the train of thought, if Tinubu’s grand ambition is to become VP, there is no better person for him to use than Osinbajo going by the strength of their relationship.

Just saying...

Visman:
so u are voting buhari out of sympathy? idiot like u are ur fellow buhari sympathizers,mumu Yoruba pigs

Kingscee:
this woman, you're a disgrace to womanhood by kneeling down to this white frog. You brought this misfortunes to Nigerians since independent till today. no wonder the YORUBAS always behave like slaves in Nigerian

Kizmarty:
I'll take that as a comic-relieve
seriously, I'll... we're the ones who don't wanna get to know them...

the political system in Nigeria, is unfavourable just like the German league is for Bayern alone(one horse race)

adeniyitheprof:
Dear Nairaland Moderators,

Do not give yourself credit of what you do not deserve at all.

The Guardian Newspaper editors did not come here on Nairaland nor anyone related to APC to pick or copy what someone posted here.

A Nairaland member, notoriousbabe posted "Bimbo Ajinibi wrote:".

You should know that notoriousbabe copied the post from somewhere and came here to post and he even referenced it to BIMBO AJINIBI.

In fact, just search for BIMBO AJINIBI via GOOGLE SEARCH ENGINE, you will see the same post on many blogs and websites and you can even see the social media profiles of the person.

Perhaps, Bimbo Ajinibi could an APC online agent AND not a member of or not related to anyone on NAIRALAND.

Kizmarty:
hmm..sorry Mr.intelligent
I replied you just the same tone in which you mis-QUOTED my comment.

Kizmarty:
if you've got sight problems you can do your self good by applying for a medicated spec.

seriously, did you read between lines,or do I have to explain my whole comment?

its clear the direction I'm driving at....

simply put, my view is...we should vote outside GEJ /GMB

Kizmarty:
simply put,you want us to test another thief even though you know how corrupt he may be...

it surprises me how Nigerians are quick to forgive and like a dog go back to their vomit.
its not up to three decades but we've all quickly forgotten how rash,unjust,bias and dictatorial this same Buhari was.

same Nigerians who once cried foul are all now trooping behind the same man that governed them with iron fist

same man who brought this nation to her knees and sentenced innocent men to indefinite years in prison for standing up against him.

same man who said last week during an interview that he'll sanction and ban the press if they worked against him.

Nigerians tell me Nigerians...What has he done to prove to you he has turned a new leaf?...The wolf in sheep clothing indeed.

GMB coming out to contest alone,is an insult to Nigerians and Nigeria's HISTORY!
He did E V I L S !
Don't be quick to forgive the sins of this dictator.

PS:I do not campaign for no one or party...but please don't send our nation back to the dark ages.
GMB and GEJ aren't the only Candidates. Let's not settle for the better thief,instead we can pull a surprise package.

its not late...
VOTE WISELY.

So Liar Mohammed is truly on Nl,
He copied word for word …

There is nothing wrong in Apc using the write up, the original writer and source should be referenced, not Liar Mohammed taking credits.

Seun and the writer should sue Guardian newspaper and APC.

THIS IS MINDLESS LIFTING and not even making references to the original writer and source

drshrewd:
I wonder why the APC would not sponsor their own documentary on how this present administration succeeded in ruining this country. at least theirs will be issue based. coming to mind among others are: the pension scam, subsidy scam,Ribadu report neglect, bullet proof car saga, chartered flight, 15m jet money laundry, fake kerosine subsidy, immigration rubbery, missing monies: $20b (NNPC), N500b(sure p) etc, less than 30% capital budget (despite the oil boom), less than 50% budget performance (despite the oil boom), unprecedented recklessness and wastages in the system--fleet of presidential jets, Aso rock knife & fork, Aso zoo, machinery, gen etc. pardon/dropping of charges of known criminals and subsequent award to undeserving individuals, depletion of the excess crude account, external reserve, un-presidential statement like stealing is no corruption, etc

easy4beno:
You are very right though, maybe what the electorates and APC in particular should make noise about now is that it should be conducted by an independent organisation or media outfit, if you ask me, I can beat my chest to advocate that a media house like channels will do a very good job, I think I would suggest we start looking towards that direction if the time and logistics will still permit, instead of people and APC now looking forward to cancelling the whole idea, America the almighty father of democracy still does it, so I think it would be worth emulating..

daintyprincess:
Am not in support of any of d parties but I'll like to know who has been organizing this debate before now? If It's d same group or set of people,why is d opposing party complaining now?
Just asking.

easy4beno:
Elections getting interesting by the day, I must confess I'm having n catching fun from the various news that's been trending about campaign for a while now, different bombs and RPGs being thrown from one political camp to the other..at least I can say that people are getting more inclined and exposed politically by the hour.

However, big events to me like the upcoming debate shouldn't be handled with hands of levity by way of trying to shy away from the debate by giving us unreasonable reasons why a candidate can't participate, for crying out loud, this is an open debate that Nigerians are longing to watch live from the corners of our rooms, we want to hear from the horses' mouths.

Regardless of whoever organised the debate or however it is being organised, GMB should come out and participate in the debate, I want to believe the judges would be fair and unbiased.

Mai vote still goes to GMB though,bur we need you to add some swag to your strategies and addresses..we just can't afford another 4yrs of dulling..

Forwetinnah:
I keep reminding people like you that Buhari NEVER RULED FOR ONE DAY in the 80s, all he did was hunt down his enemies while Idiagbon did all the ruling..even if it was organized " on an empty ground", he still wouldn't come. Buhari is someone who doesn't want his authority challenged, to him he doesn't need to explain himself to anyone and he knows he has quite a lot to answer to

ichidodo:
[color=#1980BC] Wait till this gets out to the polity that Buhari boycotted the debate.-there will be mad public frenzy at the expense of APC's image-...The final nail on buhari's coffin will be when the debate goes on at schedule with GEJ as the star of the moment articulating his manifesto to millions of Nigerians all round the world and Buhari in the shadows without a platform to campaign his manifesto is left to mull in silence and imminent defeat...Oh! what an own goal by the APC...its gonna be fantastic!! [/color]

toobby:
some one that Can't even stand and defend himself isn't worthy of being the president of over 170 million people. Now shouldn't it be a medium where he should be able to convince Nigerians why we should vote him. This is not a good reason why he shouldn't partake in the debate. Even their so called campaign which was suppose to be issue based, since when the campaign started general buhari hasn't even spoke for more than 8min in each campaign and he hasn't been able to convince people what he will do.


I rather vote the clueless.
