What is the difference between APC and PDP?

A few months ago, many APC members were in PDP and vice versa. The umbrella and broom didn't loot the treasury. But voters keep believing every lie shoved down their throats. I am not expecting any change whether Buhari or Atiku wins. Nigeria is beyond redemption. Will any of them winning stop Yahoo plus, rituals, drug dealers, scammers, skull mining, kidnapping, armed robbery, extortion, bribery, forgery, looting? These are ills common Nigerians have adapted to and accepted in their lives. Yet some folks believe it is all about APC or PDP.

They should go and bundle ATIKU!
Why Okupe?

The same question Patience Jonathan asked Buhari that got them kicked out. Campaign should be based on ethos and logos... not pathos.

when is he going to the US to answer the drug charges against him

The problem with Buhari is that he is always still working on something. 30 years later, he is still working on increasing the number of his cows beyond 20. Give him another 10 years, he will still be working on the things you listed.

socialmediaman:
Does it really matter when he does it if it should’ve happened long time ago? Sounds like Buhari’s status of quo is a better option for you?

What are we really afraid of? Or maybe APC propaganda is working its magic on us?

socialmediaman:
I was one of those who campaigned for Buhari and voted out GEJ for many of those reasons too so i do not have a problem with the bolded. I have since moved on after seeing Buhari's abysmal performance. By the way, if you cannot forgive GEJ, how come you mention nothing about Buhari doing nothing despite being Minister of petroleum, still supervising heavy corruption in the sector since 2015?

So i get your point, you do not trust Atiku to privatize NNPC, not that his point that it should be privatized doesn't make sense?

I am not insultive , the truth is that buhari got to the sit because of the continuous reform to the electoral act,why can't buhari add his own contributions to deepen our democracy instead of trying to take advantage of the flaws,if he had been interested he would have been the one to send the executive bill but he is the one frustrating it by delaying till the last day of the 30days before sending it back, now multiply 4times that he has rejected the bill by 3odays that he keeps the bill, only him wasted 120 days which is a lot and that is deliberate any reasonable person can easily see that, he was deliberately looking for fault, the electoral act can not be perfect we will continue to work on it till it has semblance of perfection, the conclusion is buhari lacks the integrity that is attributed to him,he will take advantage of the system like everyone he is not different from any average Nigerian,I don't have a problem with him been returned as the president since everyone will have his fair share of the consequences of his incompetence

surgical:
oga that is a lie from the pit of hell, which APC people are known for my problem with APC is that it is populated with the worst set of Nigerians, retrogressive,self centered people who in 100years can never move this country forward, signing the electoral bill amended into law would have helped to improve our electoral process but since buhari have not come to improve anything in Nigeria except to steal and destroy he will not sign it ,it will be against his character,he has never add anything of value to Nigeria since he became president, his illitrate supporters we're saying it's because pdp stole all the money,does he need any money to sign this law that would have helped the country tremendously in it's leadership recruitment, that could have count for an achievement but

34webers:
When will nairaland be a platform for enlightened discussions like what is happening on this thread? I salute all the contributors to this thread, I am seriously learning.

Geojio:
Take a look

socialmediaman:
Why not make your point straight without first chiding?

Selling NITEL was a wise decision by Nigerian Government, it ended the billions continuously allocated to the sector without improvement. So also should Universities and other government assets[ liabilities sold to private investors who are then given standards to operate and taxed heavily for revenue.

SOLD is another word for PRIVATIZED and people have been calling for that for NNPC for long. Exploring, Refining and Selling crude or refined products should not be Government’s Business, that’s why we have the heavy corruption in that sector. Government should rather be regulating the business. Up to 40 - 50% tax is not too small for government to make from tax from private companies who make much more money from the business when it’s left for them to do, compared to peanuts we see as a result of government running the business

Roger3D:
How come we never heard you suggest this crazy idea of yours when oga Jona was in power?

socialmediaman:
You mean perpetual national assets liabilities like NITEL which revolutionized the telecom industry? Even Universities should be sold, FG should have no business running Universities and other businesses. They should focus on taxes, policies and wealth circulation

socialmediaman:
Yes i believe its his right and should be used for the right intentions, and its our duty to also to question his intent and sincerity and educate the public about the contents of the bill he refused to accent and the flimsiness of his excuse. A president who has eroded the trust of many could abuse his constitutional powers for selfish interest as far as we are concerned.

We hoped he would improve upon the electoral process he inherited so loopholes observed in the last election can be blocked, but it seems he is bent on keeping the system as was. Shame!

dokunbam:
The change is on course,

Buhari is far better that Atiku that spent 8 years with OBJ(PDP for 16 years) and there is nothing to show for it

Maybe if Atiku is contesting under SDP I would have decided to vote for him.

He chaired the selling of our national assets


Change is a gradual process. We just have to fix infrastructure which is the fundamental ingredient for development.

Infrastructure is the backbone of economy and development.

We cannot continue to scratch on the face and expect development

Several abandoned projects that billions have been spent on are being completed across

Rails that will open up rural areas for easy transportation of food are being completed

Hydro power stations are being competed
Foreign reserve is growing steady
Pensioners are paid
Youth empowerment
Farmers initiative
Etc

Again what is Atiku going to do differently? they are all saying the same thing. "I will fight boko, i will sell nnpc, i will make Nigeria work again. I expected more from him if he is actually serious. And the fact that he was part of PDP years ago. I dont trust him

Seriously, I am not convinced about Atiku

I am voting Sowore sef

Roger3D:
We can deport you to Biafra if you like

naijapips04:
And Buhari has achieved these how?

socialmediaman:
You mean it wasn't passed by the National Assembly before moving to the presidency?

socialmediaman:
I dont remember mentioning PDP in my question. The NASS is controlled by both parties so they could have stopped it along party lines from going to the presidency. So again, when did the judiciary's problem become Buhari's problem?

CilicMarin:
lalasticlala Mynd44 let's have wider view.

tooth4tooth:
They think they can push him to sign

socialmediaman:
The question is, how is this Buhari’s problem? When did Buhari become the judiciary? So every business prtnership or government process that started many years ago must wait to be completed before a new law comes into place?
