Ok thanks.

Oru is not as big as Ezinihitte. They could have at most 40,000 votes. Rochas should still win based on the results released.

Imo guber election and Lagos seems to be the most keenly contested.

However, collation officer should do the needful by cancelling Ezinihitte.

AIT is a big disgrace to the Media and Journalism. They could not even show real time coverage and news when Buhari and APC were winning in various states. They only displaying PDP candidates that won on their footage. No doubt, they were disappointed in the outcome of the election.

Power has changed hands! The man they tried to rubbish has been favored, now they are trying to make amends.

Thumbs up for Channels & TVC for giving us real coverage.

He stood against excesses from PEJ, Wike, military and police intimidation. He voiced out and stood by the truth.

He is a hero of APC and contributed immensely in this historic change we are celebrating today!

Politics / Re: Jega's Announcement Of Presidential Election Results 2015: Part 4 by Obinnapat(m): 6:31pm On Mar 31, 2015
Fellow Nairalanders,


For the records, I was a part of this change in the history of Nigeria. We give all the glory to God almighty and also congratulate the people's General (Muhammadu Buhari) on his Victory in this Presidential Election.


This shows that our democracy is evolving and growing stronger. Despite all the money and funds deployed by PDP and Propaganda against GMB, he was still Victorious with a clear and convincing margin.


Mores so, Prof Jega has shown the whole world that there are still men of integrity in Nigeria. He has demonstrated maturity, excellent leadership and transparency in the collation of the results. He deserves to be honoured both nationally and internationally.


On a final note, we can celebrate on this victory but remember to embrace peace and accept those defeated to join in this peaceful revolution. After all, we are ONE NIGERIA.


God bless Nairalanders!
God bless GMB supporters!
God bless the poeples General!
God bless APC
God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria!


Arise for National Anthem!!!

The Lord in heaven knows that I don't care who is sworn in come May 29th....

But the conduct of Nigerians in this election has given me a heavenly feeling.... a persistent  tingling in my tummy....

I never for once thought I would witness an election where the electorates with their votes have sent a message that is resounding in all parts of the country.... After now whoever us voted into any office would be foolhardy to ignore The wishes of the people.... Our votes did count.


GOOD JOB MY FELLOW NIGERIANS.



Yes our votes are beginning to count especially in the SW, NC, NW & NE.

We still have lapses in the SE & SS where a lot of complaints and irregularities were alleged to take place. Most card readers did not work in these two regions and that calls for investigation.

It is a shame for both regions for trying to scuttle this most peaceful and credible election.
Politics / Re: #### From The South East, I Have Finally Decided Today! by Obinnapat(m): 10:44pm On Mar 23, 2015
exxell:
So today, Buhari came to Owerri peacefully and went without any hitch. When he left, nobody used water to wash the road. He was respected as an official contender for the post of the presidency. Rewind back to last week. President Jonathan was in Daura, Kastina state and when he left, the youths and elders were washing the road as if an evil came to visit them. They spited the office of the presidency! All these while, I have always been skeptical of voting Jonathan again because he was too "gentle" for me. But I also know that Buhari is not a better option for Nigeria. My reasons are these;

#1 He is retarrded
#2 He is a Muslim and an extremist for that one
#3 He is too old to rule Nigeria in the 21st century... All these his packagings are hogwash by those who want to hijack Nigeria
#4 He said that the full meaning of APC is All Progressive Confident shocked shocked shocked
#5 He has no certificate (Proven)... How can he rule Nigeria with so many professors around?
#6 He called INEC the Independent Nigeria Electoral Commission sad sad sad
#7 He is surrounded by crooks who wants nothing but their own selfish gains e.g Rochas Okorocha, Tinubu and Co, Amaechi
#8 He said that the name of his VP is Yemi Osunbade undecided undecided undecided
#9 He said that he will stabilise oil prices in the world lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed ( Confirm Madness)
#10 He just said today that he will make the naira equal to dollars embarassed embarassed embarassed (Who does this man take us for? Magas?

Because of the above listed reasons and because Jonathan didn't perform as I expected, I decided to void my vote. But today as I was discussing with a Mallam that came to repair my shoe, guess what this man told me? That Allah has decreed that Buhari will win. He said that Jonathan won the 2011 elections because the Nothern people sinned against Allah and that Allah said in the Qur'an that anytime they sin, foreigners will rule them! I was like the Fucckk? He said that this was what has been preached to them all these while in their mosques sad sad sad.
The one that annoyed me most was that he told me that the Northerners don't need any education in order to hold any political post because they have a divine mandate to rule the world.

At this point, I wanted to go inside my house, boil hot oil and barbecue this illiterate fool... But the love of God made me not to.

So finally, I have decided to go and dust up my PVC again and VOTE DR GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN! This man is an Angel.... Believe me when I tell you so.... You need to listen to a Northerner and believe me.


Are you comparing yourself with an illiterate mallam who has been brainwashed??

You know better and should have educated him a bit on the need to vote for change.

Should you vote based on religion or for better governance

Reason why he jailed him is not necessary in 2015. The fact is that Nigeria has deteriorated so much in the past 16 years and we all can see and feel it under PDP admin.

What is important now is; who will give us electricity, security, stop corruption, create jobs, sanitise our institutions (ministries, Military, police, govt agencies, judiciary etc)


Definitely, you and I know is not PDP.

Owelle is loved by most Imolites. I am from Imo state and the last time I visited Owerri capital, I immediately spotted the difference btw Ohakim admin and Rochas Admin.

More so, I know at least 2 Imsu graduates that benefited from his scholarship. They got 100k each session until they graduated. The man is a philantropist and loves to empower children through education. Have you heard about his schools (Rochas Foundation)?


Ponder on this question; " How did he manage to knock out an incumbent governor(Ohakim)?


In conclusion, He is above average in terms of performance!!!

President GEJ has affirmed that there is massive corruption in the oil sector and promised to end it within 4 years if elected again as president.


In my own view, he does not seem bold enough to tackle the cabals in that sector. A lot of retired Generals, Ex-heads of state and Ex-governors have deep investments and interest in the sector.


The rot in the sector is beyond scientific and modern methods proposed by him to curb corruption. For him to be successful, he must step on peoples toes, revise illegal licenses for oil blocks, probe those indicted in subsidy scam and possibly jail a lot of people.


That is the way forward! What is your own view?

Politics / Re: Jonathan Vs Buhari: How They Stand In 36 States, FCT - VANGUARD by Obinnapat(m): 2:17pm On Mar 23, 2015
jpphilips:



The South east have been a battle ground for political mischief over the years. Another election is around the corner and the power brokers are at it again, needless to mention the need for the actors and spectators to harmonize political interest.

It is no longer news that the subterfuge of President Jonathan has not only eroded reasoning but have equally failed logic of the average south easterner. Once is a while when the music gets to a crescendo, we pause to relieve our breath.

In many quarters of ignorance, however unimpressed pundits like us felt about Jonathan's presidency, a scan through of his touted achievements is a proof that the south easterners are living in denial.

ROADS:


Funny how Nigerians still bask in the euphoria of development when administrators at State and Federal levels resurface roads, this obligatory stride is magnified to an insulting proportion especially when it becomes a campaign slogan for politicians.

The South Eastern states in focus is made up of Imo, Anambra, Enugu and Ebonyi states, to travel from Imo to Anambra presents the Owerri-Onitsha road as the most plausible federal route option, no doubt, this road is resurfaced today, however,most South easterners are oblivious of the fact that the resurfacing of that road stems its history from OBJ through Yaradua but completed with Jonathan, however encouraging that may sound, I still ask, is there any other federal route apart from that one?
Anambra to Enugu is left with Onitsha to Enugu (in terrible shape by the way) and Enugu to Abakiliki through Enugu - Ph express way another death trap.

Based on the above facts, Jonathan has alienated two states out of four in the South east by virtue of terrible federal roads, the funny part is that the Enugu - Onitsha alternative is a state road which seems to be in a better shape than the federal road, never mind that the so called roads awaiting to be resurfaced by the Jonathan's administration were created by the military, mostly northerners by extension. Till date, Jonathan is yet to create a second federal route that will connect the South eastern states.



TRANSPORTATION:

Two significant events reshaped Jonathan's stewardship in the last 5yrs, upgrading of the existing Akanu Ibiam airport to international status and the repair of the Portharcourt to Enugu rail routes.
Each time I look at the average Igbo man and how this two projects would have changed his life forever, I cannot but pray for the igbo man to wake up from his slumber.

The Akanu Ibiam international airport sure will open the South east to the world, Ethiopian airlines is licensed to operate that route for now, I always wonder where Orji Uzor kalu and Authur Eze two Igbo sons that are stake holders in the aviation sector dissolved to when that license was granted? bearing in mind that Nigeria has no national carrier. I may not know whether or not they have the capacity to go international but the recent Skytrax rating of our "face me I face you" airport calls for serious concern.
After all the hype, noise and billions in resources spent, this Jonathan's Greek gift neither made it to the first 800 in the world neither did it make the 100 place in Africa, while poor Kenya made the 9th position in Africa, is this what the Igbos really deserve?.

President Jonathan's rail project was the biggest slap on the Igbos for those who understand the dynamics of the South east economy. If strategically positioned would have been the game changer for the Igbos in generations to come.
There are two economic hubs in South east Nigeria, Onitsha and Nnewi both in Anambra state. While Nnewi is drawing its blood from its robust manufacturing base, Onitsha is pulling its weight from it robust FOREX and importation strong holds.

Bearing in mind that whatever affects Onitsha easily affects Nnewi owing to their geographic proximity, I will beam my search light on Onitsha.
During the rail projects, I was expecting that President Jonathan being a lover of Igbos like he claimed would have prioritized APAPA to Onitsha rail route.

As I type, this route is non existent, meanwhile, this is the only route that would have been the economic game changer in the South East.
The absence of a rail line on this route is the reason Benin-ore road, Ore-Lagos routes don't last due to the intense, unabated use of heavy duty truck carrying containers on this route, cement distributors like Ibeto, Dangote and Lafarge have equally contributed to her woes.

During a field trip in the south east, a container cleared in APAPA enroute Onitsha will cost 400,000 naira on haulage alone, sundry expenditures could pull between 650k to 700k off the importer depending on the consignment, considering the nature of the road (especially the ore-Lagos route), there is a 50% chance the container will not arrive its destination, Jonathan the false Igbo messiah ran to the already existing PH-Enugu route, a route whose economic relevance stemmed from the days of the British, when coal was ferried from Enugu and exported through Portharcourt to do a quick fix for vain glory.
In other words, the president failed to connect one of Africa's busiest ports with West Africa's biggest market and igbos saw nothing wrong with that.

In 2011, Jonathan made a promise to South easterners that he will do a second Niger bridge (the latest victim of heavy duty haulage from Lagos to the east) 4yrs on, the Igbos are satisfied that the project is still at the pilling stage.


According to them, they said that Jonathan appointed the first Igbo chief of army staff, but immediately I ask, has the NDA and the Direct Short service quota for the SE increased? they hardly wait to give me an answer. Does it mean that a group of supposed intelligent and industrious people barely know where their interest lie?


ELECTRICITY

While I was expecting the SE to demand justice for the way interstate (a friend of the president by the way) muscled away viable competitors who had the capacity to turn around their power woes during the sale of EEDC, it never harped on the South easterners that Jonathan's administration did a great disservice to them. Do they care?

Not until Jonathan proposed a coal power plant for kogi state (Enugu's closest neighbor), a 1,200MW coal power plant in Itobe Kogi state, the project is expected to come alive in 2018, tell me, between Enugu (the coal city state) and Itobe Kogi state, who deserves a coal power plant?

If any Igbo man answers this question, I will have no need to continue this expose.


ECONOMY


Often times we wonder; who is the loser in Jonathan's abysmal handling of the economy? ans: South East.

The PDP strategy:

PDP before now has a way to keep the people happy in suffering, if asked, you will say that Nigeria is a near tax free nation but is it really true?
Jonathan's government knows that Nigeria is an import based economy and there is need to allow the pitiable manufacturing base to grow, so instead of taxing consumer goods at point of consumption, they are taxed at point of entry.

This strategy is the reason why most Igbo businesses have failed in recent times. Ask yourself, how many developing countries in the world do you pay duty higher than the cost of purchase especially cars? or does duty not qualify as a form of taxation?

In Jonathan's government, economic maneuvers with grave consequences are not meant to be mentioned:
Increase in pump price is called Subsidy removal.
Increase in taxation is called FIRS receipt etc, with such gimmicks the average Igbo man hardly realizes that Jonathan is his biggest economic

Nightmare.

Pay attention to these excerpt in the 2015 budget:






In an economy with high unemployment rate here is what Iweala is proposing for 2015 and they are keeping it quiet now because of elections.



What it means for the Igbo man is that 2015 will not be business as usual, even though you are deceived to vote as usual, Igbos should expect very high duty this year which will make your goods expensive hence lower your patronage, this is Jonathan's Greek gift for your 2015 patronage at the polls.

It is no longer news that 1 US dollar is exchanging for 225 naira under Jonathan, what it means to an average Igbo man is that if your 40ft container is worth $60,000 (9.3m naira) you will need 13.5m to order the same 40ft container you just bought last year. At the port, Jonathan will send you another message through Iweala, and if you don't have 4.2m to complete the balance, you better go back to your village or better still collect his fertilizer to start farming, or worse still, apply for a traffic warden job like he has proposed. God help you if you have kids studying abroad, Jonathan's incompetence has increased their tuition by 40%. These are the economic realities facing the South Easterner however ugly it presents itself.
Meanwhile, while Jonathan is draining your capital, he has not made any attempt whatsoever to cut down on the largess going on in Government, evidenced by his unwillingness to fight corruption.
Under Goodluck, Anambra state lost it's bid to being an oil producing state.

How can a group of hardworking legitimate people be scared of Buhari? the thieves are scared, the undisciplined is scared, what are you scared of?


ENERGY:

Since 2004, no South Easterner can boast of buying any petroleum product at the government approved rate always, while the Govt approved rate is 97naira, south easterners buy between 110-115 naira, have you guys bothered to ask why? Ans; Enugu Depot is not working.

This is how it works, Petrol used in Enugu, Ebonyi, and Anambra come from either Portharcourt or Warri, if the right thing is done, it is supposed to be coming from the Enugu depot, the increased transport fare (tanker hire) will be added to the products so it hardly sells for the Govt approved rate.

Now you know, for a pretty long time, you guys have suffered this and Govt after Govt including Jonathan your beloved didn't care as much as OBJ never cared, do you know what the problem is ?

There is a pipeline section at Okigwe, it is not like the whole pipeline have to be replaced but just the Okigwe section, that is the Genesis of your suffering. I am yet to understand the zombie follower ship Jonathan has in the South East, South- South his father land has already dropped him like a hot object (Rivers and Bayelsa), what is the SE waiting for?

According to Patrick Obahiagbon " there is no reason for Nigerians to pontificate the faucet origo of a presidential aspirant" whatever that means grin grin.

There is an Igbo adage that says that the Local dog follows a man with running stomach with the hope that if he doesn't vomit, he will defecate, so far, Jonathan as the man with the running stomach has refused to defecate nor Vomit, it is mind bugling why the South easterners are following him about.






Gbagan! Eye opener! I have decided to vote wisely for a better Nigeria!

FELLOW NIGERIANS, IS THIS THE PRESIDENT YOU DESERVE?

May the Judgment of God not befall us and our families if with our votes we deliberately return a Govt of Hunger, corruption and death to the Nigerian people. Kindly distribute through your BBM and Whatsapp contacts, enough is enough!!


December 2014: Nigeria stooped to the lowest of all lows to invite Chad, one of the poorest countries in the world to fight Boko haram.
Since their arrival, the Nigerian army under Jonathan's failed leadership has made unprecedented gains in a short time.


November 2014, Jonathan shocked Nigerians with the news that Boko haram has taken control of 16 towns in 9 LGA’s the height of incompetence in balkanizing the Nigerian state, a week later, Nigerians were blown away by series of austerity measures handed to them for their stupidity in 2011.

The naira was devalued at the pretext of drop in oil prices but Nigerians never asked why the Naira never appreciated when the oil price was increasing?
If the foreign reserve were not stolen, Nigeria would have weathered the storm for at least 6 months like we did during the global melt down of 2004 and 2008, unfortunately, the incompetence of the Jonathan administration has brought grave consequence on the Nigerian people, Inflation and high cost of energy are likely consequences. oh! there is fuel shortages already as we speak.

According to Will Ross of the BBC “He said he hoped a parliamentary investigation would also find out why the country's Excess Crude Account had fallen from $11.5bn to under $2.5bn in a year - arguing that Nigeria's savings are a vital buffer against any drop in the global oil price and without this "rainy day" account, the economy is vulnerable and exposed.

October 2014; Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the Federal republic of Nigeria uses a militant Asari Dokubo for black market gun running, evident from the grounding and seizure of over $10m by the South African authorities.
September, 2014, The Nigerian Government admitted ferrying over $10m in a private jet for arms procurement, where do we draw the line between money laundering and arms procurement? I asked myself about the recent helos that was delivered by Russia recently if it was purchased in the same manner, agree with me or not, Jonathan is neck deep not just in corruption but money laundering.

August 2014: As a result of the unabated corruption in the Nigerian Military, Mutiny of July gave rise to Boko haram declaring a caliphate on Nigerian Soil, Gentlemen and Ladies, Jonathan Has once again made a history of Incompetence. Never in the history of Nigeria have we ceded territories to bandits.


July 2014: saw a president who went to sleep while neighboring West African countries battled with the Ebola virus, his negligence paid off when Patrick Sawyer brought the deadly virus to Nigeria unabated. Since August 2012, when the Ebola outbreak began, The Nigerian govt had no single emergency response plan in place.
$11m emergency fund and N480m budgeted for the control of infectious diseases in the 2013 budget never got to the Lagos state government, the Nigerian Ebola Epicenter.
Still in June, we saw the worst abuse of his Royal majesties powers when he barred APC Governors from attending a rally in Ekiti state with soldiers, meanwhile Boko Haram is still having a field day in the North.
The senate revealed to Nigerians how the president Mis appropriated over 685b kerosene subsidy fund


May 2014: [/b]left us with this shocking statement
“Jonathan, who was asked to comment on the allegations of corrupt practices leveled against some of his ministers, had said that nobody was above mistakes and that if he were to be acting based on reports on each of them, “no one will stay for more than six months in office.” [b]Mere stealing we call corruption"

Still in the same month after the corrupt tales of embezzlement and diversion of military budget, the clueless one finally offered Amnesty to a terrorist group, the first of its kind, in the world.
An Indication that the Jonathan’s administration is run by a den of thieves.

April 2014: reminded us the climax of Jonathan’s administration where he went on a jamboree while book haram held over 200 young girls, hostage,
April never ended before the Dizeani madueke’s 10billion naira scam reached a climax.

March 2014: just before the centenary celebration where Abacha of all people was a beneficiary, scores of Innocent school children were murdered in Adamawa sate.

Feb 2014: saw the illegal suspension of the CBN Gov.at a time the nation was in dire need of foreign direct investment, the Kidnap of the president’s foster father is a realistic score card on his strides on security.
January 2014, a presidential committee was set up to investigate the October scandal of stella odua who came with a guilty verdict, yet she kept her job.

December 2013: ushered the yuletide of Obasanjo’s “before it is too late”, several corruption allegations and the extremism of the Jonathan’s administration, the impunity of plundering the people’ s common wealth and the tenacity of talking drums like Abati who have earned a reputation in insulting the sensibilities of Nigerians.10 bullet proof vehicles purchased by DICON for its top brass

November 2013: the CBN Governor raised an alarm that under Jonathan’s watch, the NNPC diverted $49billion dollars, fellow Nigerians, are we not tired of condoning corruption?

October 2013: ushered a month of corruption coronation in Jonathan’s camp, where the Aviation minister coerced the NCAA to purchase 2 fairly used armored 2008 BMW to the tune of $800,000 each.

September 2013: President Jonathan took a record breaking 600 men entourage for the UN General assembly in New york

August 2013: After the billions of dollars spent in revamping the nation’s airports, skytrax world airport ranking for Africa showed Nigeria didn’t make it to top 10 in Africa neither did it make it top 100th place in the world. Whereas Ethiopia and Mauritania made it to position 9th and 8th respectively, what a shame.

July 2013: transparency international rated Nigeria as the 8th most corrupt country in the world.

June 2013: World Bank appraised him thus;

“Nevertheless, improvements in social welfare indicators have been much slower than would be expected in the context of this growth. Poverty reduction and job creation have not kept pace with population growth, implying social distress for an increasing number of Nigerians. Progress toward the fulfillment of many of the Millennium Development Goals has been slow, and the country ranked 153 out of 186 countries in the 2013 United Nations Human Development Index” the World Bank said.



May 2013: The president after wasting tax payer’s money on an entourage as long as the third mainland bridge went sleeping while his foreign affairs minister represented him in his presence during the AU summit in Addis ababa.
Just outside President Goodluck Jonathan's office sat 17 ambulances, just in case he or one of his aides fell ill. They were seldom if ever used.

No actual health-care facility nationwide had as many, and in fact a few still have none at all. But as soon as a Nigerian newspaper took a photo of the ambulances and published a story about them, they suddenly disappeared -- probably to an underground garage.

March, 2013: we witnessed the height of moral bankruptcy when Mr President granted presidential pardon to the biggest criminal in the history of our democracy, Alamesigha to prepare him for a senatorial seat.

February 2013: amidst the short fall in crude prices, the president smuggled into the 2013 budget a 2bn appropriation fund for the office of the first lady

February 2013: the office of the presidency denied vehemently that the first lady was on vacation in Germany only for them to organize a survival party with tax payer’s money. Is this the kind of leader you want to hold to his words?

In January 2013: the erst while madam due process and former minister for education challenged the charlatans of jonathans’ administration to a debate on accountability of $67b as expected, honorable cowards and pen thieves, absconded as usual


November 2012: President Jonathan approved 2.2bn naira for the construction of a banquet hall in the villa. At a time our debt profile was all time high

As commander in chief, he stood dumb while a military helicopter was used for "kabu-kabu" at oronto douglas father’s burial that error in judgment alone claimed the life of a sitting Governor. and the most brilliant NSA Nigeria has ever produced.

October 2012: blatantly refusing to appeal the ICJ’s decision on ceding bakassi, thereby throwing Millions of Bakkasi indigenes into pandemonium

refusing to cut down on foreign trips and cost of Governance, contrary to his Nationwide address of 7th Jan 2012.


October 2012: Mr president’s administration spent 1.5 billion to patch the 3rd mainland bridge, 4 months later, triple of that amount was expended again on maintenance alone, Talk about waste and incompetence

August 2012 : He said our foreign reserve is 42billion usd , is that not only on iweala's notepad?
How can you have external debt of 48bn usd and come home to deceive us that we have reserves?
How much services that 48bn plus interest annually? Nearly 25% of 48bn.


August 2012: Under his watch militants earn 10% of the Nation's revenue, $22.5m, $9m and $12.5m for tompolo, Ateke and Asari as national honors.

He twisted facts during the Independence Day speech on his fight on corruption, in contrast to what the transparency international claimed.
By august 2012, 2012 budget implementation was just 13%

over 5, ooo Nigerian lives gone, Mr president is still trading words and negotiating with boko haram, we remain grateful that a quasi state of emergency came to be, at least I cant imagine an SOE where the State Govs sit tight to control state funds while the FG fight their battle.

July 2012: its 3yrs gone and he is yet to commission from scratch a new power plant worst still fired the only human being in his cabinet who knows his onions in the power sector.

July 2012: Mr President earned a congratulatory message for implementing local content policy by importing 200 luxury brands at the cost of over 13.5 million each for a 4 day first ladies summit. While our manufacturing industries beg for patronage.

June 2012: Almost all teaching hospitals in Nigeria have no functional dialysis machine, the most sought of this equipment cost just 5m naira. Statistics has it that more than 60,000 Nigerians die yearly of a kidney related ailment, however, he jets out with his cohorts to seek medical help elsewhere.

ferma is seriously patching federal highways with a budget of over 80 billion naira, there is no coordination between, the MND, NDDC and Federal ministry of works on road maintenance, same contract is awarded over and over before the job is done.

JUNE 2012: Under his watch, the giant of oil and gas reserves is undergoing its worst energy crisis in the world.

tanker drivers alone can cripple his supply network as they wish not to talk of ordinary Niger republic coming to our rescue via imports.

In case you have not heard, Nigeria is very close to Afghanistan on security progress under Jonathan's watch.

June 2012: Education is in crisis. With adult literacy at 57 per cent, overall illiteracy at 66 per cent and more than 10 million out of the 30 million children of primary school age not in school, no serious government should be comfortable. When 40 million adults in a population of 170 million are illiterate, the country is ranked 161 out of 180 countries in the United Nations Comparative Index of Literacy 2012, and has an unemployment rate of 23.7 per cent,
it’s no longer news that only 26% of school leavers gain admission into the universities and only 5% are employed after school thanks to ASUU’s 6 months strike.

June 2012: Mr president’s economic blind men have blessed us with all time high of 37.5% inflation though his mickey mouse cbn governor is still claiming 28%, wondering what he will be claiming now that all bankers are at home, naira devalued, unemployment on the rise etc He still maintains a single digit inflation on paper, I dey laugh.


Mr president is the only Nigerian president that has not initiated a successful programme even Abacha did better with ptf while IBB with FSP and MAMSA, Mr president is still confused with ''YOU WIN''and SURE-P, with zero benefit to the Nigerian people.
on that same vein, Nigeria has the second record high job cuts within the last 2yrs, if in doubt ask the bankers and manufacturing industries.
before his ascension into power, the naira was in a sorry state of 150 to 1 dollar today, Jonathan has handed us an unstable 182 to 1 dollar

June 2012: The dana crash is a testimony that Mr president’s aviation is comatose, not even the attorney general could challenge the allegations of the dana staff in court, in a national disaster of that magnitude?
The girl could have served as a prime witness in a class action against dana
Less than 6months of inconclusive investigations, DANA air hit the Tarmac again.

Still on military, Nigeria has the most under educated junior military officers, before you ask how, Mr president is too lazy to ask him self why imo with highest national examination enrollments still have the least NDA and police academy enrollments, while borno and zamfara as educationally less privileged, have higher quota than Delta and Anambra put together in military enrollments. Nepotism and corruption at its best
Mr President is the only head of state in the world whose wife is a ministry of its own.



January 2012: Under Mr president’s watch, a 250bilion subsidy programme rose to 2 trillion naira yet no arrest, no conviction, no sack, the best miserable Nigerians could get was an AWOL attorney general after 7days of protests. Height of incompetence and corruption.

Mr President is the only president in the world whose parliament gulps 75% of the national budget as alleged by the CBN Gov. yet they still soak themselves in $625m bribery scandal.
Jonathan has not even initiated let alone fulfilling a single campaign promises except the one that he needs to surround himself with brain dead women in his cabinet.


Nigerians say thank you Sir, for your 6 wasted years of leadership.

VOTE PRESIDENT PROMISE JONATHAN AT YOUR OWN RISK!! AFTER VOTING HIM, DON'T COMPLAIN WHEN YOU VACATE YOUR DUPLEX TO LIVE IN A UNITED NATIONS PROVIDED TENT AS A RESULT OF INSECURITY.

Why is GMB giving Jonathan a close fight from the analysis?

The answer is simple; A lot of people are fed up with bad governance of PDP for the past 16 years.

If PDP had performed excellently, they should be talking of land slide victory.


Pause, Think and Vote wisely!!!

Nairalanders, since there is no evidence it remains a propaganda.

But how about various corruption cases that were so glaring like;

1. Farouk lawan & Otedola scandal in fuel subsidy and over 20 key players in fuel subsidy scam

2. Stella Oduah bullet proof scandal; she will soon become a senator

3. State Pardon to convicted politicians like Alamesiegha and Bode George. Alamesiegha will soon become a Senator.

4. Police Pension scam of about N30B by Abubakar Kigo, no conviction till today.

5. 32M dollars Money laundering by Timipre Silva, case started in January 2012 and was adjourned till January 2013 (almost a year).

6. So many Ex governors have cases of misappropriation or money laundering in court but we never hear conviction. But when Ibori was tried in UK, he was convicted immediately. We all know that if he had remained in Nigeria, nothing could have happened to him.

7. Mr President told us that the military have not been buying arms for a long time, but the purchase of arms have constantly reflected in military budget in previous administration. You know what that means Who are those responsible


These are few of many cases of corruption.


The one that baffles me is our police force.

Can you truly trust a Nigerian Police man to protect your money, life or property
Politics / Re: Jonathan Compromised Presidential Debate, He Used 'Expo' – Buhari Campaign Team by Obinnapat(m): 10:02am On Mar 23, 2015
Sixteen years of corruption and injustice, No electricity, Insecurity, economic hardship, unemployment etc is enough evidence of bad governance under PDP.


We do not need a debate to tell us what has been done or will be done by a government in power for 6 years.


We should be feeling the transformation in our homes, streets, villages, cities, businesses and not on paper and TV. "Good work speaks for itself."


To get a different result, we must use another party.


Vote Wisely!!!
