Obiagelli:
What is the primary aim of a political party if not to win office

There again you guys get it wrong. The primary aim for any real political party should be good governance and not to win office.

If you ask MTN what's their primary aim, they won't tell you to make profit. No, rather they'll say their primary aim is customer satisfaction.

It should be about them (the people) and not about you (the party). This is called Social Marketing. It's obvious APC needs training on that.

barcanista:
ofcourse right. I respect people's opinion but not necessarily agree. He neither agree with nor respects APC's opinion on the ceasefire issue. He's picking holes where non exist.
Let me ask you, what is worth criticizing in APC's Statement? Is it not rather precautionary? Isn't it matured considering what happened 24hrs after the phantom ceasefire announcement? If for anything APC deserves kudos not a vile knock from the Jonathan Apologists.

What is worth criticising in the APC statement is the fact that they are calling for the ousting of the present government in that reaction to ceasefire press statement. Why must everything be about ousting the present government?

What they should have done is simply to encourage precautionary measures be taken and perhaps suggest better ways to tackle this insurgency. We're tired of hearing the word clueless or the call for the ouster of the present government. The fact that you call a government clueless doesn't make it clueless. It's the people that'll decide if they are clueless or not. The fact that you are crying for the ousting of a government won't make it happen. It's we, the non-partisan majority that will decide come February whether the present party should be ousted or not.

barcanista:
You are sorry for what? Bros abeg stop trying to please these guys, because you just can't please them

He was sorry for calling me a dick. He didn't say he was sorry for opposing my views. Please stop being biased here.

barcanista:
You PDP apologists Seem to have this love for Atiku Abubakar, why not make him PDP's candidate or running-mate to Jonathan?

PDP Apologist? Hmmm, I love that name .

Atiku is a politician who is a known crook. To me, he's not to be trusted. However, that doesn't mean I shouldn't praise him if he's currently acting like a matured politician and democrat.

Of all the aspirants in the opposition, he's the most democratic at the moment. Did you read his twitter reaction to the ceasefire agreement? He was very cautious about the agreement but he went on to say whatever development that will ensure the release of the chibok girls is a welcomed development. Did you read his comment after he went to visit Obasanjo's son who was shot during the battle? If you are truly a Nigeria you'll love those comments.

Perhaps Buhari should consult Atiku for his political sagacity. Buhari's lies concerning the PDP government during his declaration exposed his desperation. It is common knowledge that power generation was epileptic and less than 2000MW even before 1999 so why lie about it?

Buhari should have admitted that there was an increase in electricity generation from 1999 till date. We all knew there was an increase, so no need lying about it. However we know that the increase was not good enough. The increase can be likened to one year one block scenario in house building. Thus this means that PDP failed. Buhari needn't lie to prove that PDP failed, but he did! That's desperation!

omenka:
Abegi, comot make we see road joor.

What is wrong in telling a people to be wary of the utterances of a government with a knack for failure??

What is wrong in telling a people to be wary of a government that denies contemplating an increase in the pump price of gasoline only to wake up to over 100% increase the next day as a new year's gift??

What is wrong in telling us to b e cautious about a government who told us the problem of inadequate electricity would be a thing of the past a year after its inauguration whereas we are still struggling with thesame issue??

What is wrong in telling a people not to trust in totality a government that said it would end insurgency in June of 2013 only for us to be grappling with the same problem to this day??

Is anything wrong in telling a people to be wary of a government that announced that all girls had been released (twice) only to come back and tell us the statement was made in error??

What exactly is wrong with that I ask

Even without being told, I am ALWAYS wary of whatever this satanic government does or says. I like positive news but don't give them any bear hugs when they come from Jonathan's admin. It is called cautious optimism.

There's nothing wrong with being cautious. Do you think I believe everything the government says? No. I use my thinking faculty while assimilating whatever the government says.

My annoyance with the APC in their ceasefire press statement is that they were talking about ousting the present government. The topic of discuss was concerning the ceasefire and the chibok girls and all they (APC) are concerned about is the ousting of the present government and their concern about PDP's politicisation of the ceasefire.

Thank God that our Military is disciplined and mature, it's this kind of bitter opposition from the APC that can lead to a Military Coup.

harde2lah:
Use your sense boy and stop reasoning with your dick

You see. This comment of yours exposes your desperation as an APC politician hoping to grab power by hook or by crook. Why resorting to insults when responding to my comments? It's comments such as yours that will make Nigerians wary of the opposition.

berem:
but that's exactly what they are doing. Telling you to watch your back and not to be deceived.

They are not after your wellbeing. They are selling their market is all.

If my mechanic A repairs my car and I tell another mechanic B that my car seems good. Of course if mechanic B tells me to be careful there's nothing wrong with it, I'll know he's being concerned about my car wellbeing. If that car spoils, nobody would tell me to leave A for B. But if mechanic B tells me to leave A and come to him, then it means he's just been desperate to get my patronage. I'll flee from such.

ilugunboy:
....what is wrong in advising people not to let down their guard in terms of maintaining their security routine?

I see no reason why people should assume that everything is ok yet and lower the security level.

Of course there's nothing wrong with being cautious. I never criticised the APC for saying that we should be careful. However it is wrong for the APC to have used this their ceasefire deal statement as another avenue to talk about the ousting of the present government.

It's obvious these guys are not after our wellbeing. They are just hell bent on taking over power. Every statement of theirs has to do with ousting the present government. They should be careful lest Nigerians would sense their desperation. I detest desperate politicians.

Thus far, I would say Atiku has been the most matured opposition politician I've observed. His twitter statement concerning the ceasefire deal/chibok girls negotiation is very matured. I hope his party alongside his fellow aspirants would tow his line

Joavid:
The release of chibok girls is an event of cli'max that the FG has lined up in this whole tragic-comedy play all in a bid to lead gullible Nigerians to vote PDP/GEJ back in 2015.


Plus,the play writers and political strategist who wrote this script understand the psychology of the Average Nigerian very very well.
And kudos to GEJ for being a good actor - and politician, the dude is not that clueless after all.



GEJ till 666...
Niaja is fvcked!

My dear, will you stop politicising everything please? We should be praying that this deal is successful and that our girls returned to us unharmed rather than deceiving yourself that this is a script. For your information, even Jonathan isn't sure that this deal will be successful. We don't even know if we are dealing with the true representatives of Boko Haram. What we need is prayers and not cynicism.

PhockPhockMan:
Ask that question to obinoscopy, seun, Mynd44. Buhari’s declaration thread hit front page before ten comments.

So unfortunate.

TAN has been organising several rallies. I've even lost count. I don't think it would be right to be sending them to the homepage. If we do, nairaland will become tanaland

Ok noted.

However there's something I need clarification on. This link from Heritage Bank: http://www.hbng.com/working-at-heritage-bank/ actually requested for CV Submissions from Job Applicants (See Snapshot Below). So why the disclaimer? Or could it be that they are trying to differentiate CV Submission from Recruitment Drive?

Mogidi:
GEJ is not a muslim, he has no reason to listen to Imams.

lol

Bros this your sense no get part two

Mogidi:
I think Buhari should heed the voice of this Imam.

What about Jonathan? Should he heed the Imam's voice?

Stale April Fool's news

timawoku:
Hmmm, go disturb Mzmycoli or sumtin.ok, get along now....

Oya bros, I'm sorry. I hereby agree to your complaints. Oya come and take biscuit.


Yimu

TolaniLuv:
Mod, can you kindly ban this person! I'm jus wondering why some people like this person can be so silly

Done

priscaoge:
Atmmachine you Seriously need deliverance!

He has been delivered.

OP, so Buhari said all that? Interesting.

Fayemi must have distanced himself so far from the people. That must have been what made Fayose win by that margin.

timawoku:
@3, hope you know that there are online stalkers, and this lady could be a future victim of facebook irony?

And how does this have to do with Rule 3. Was any violent action advocated against the lady by the OP? Victim of Facebook irony, bros you dey listen to wetin u dey yan? Wetin concern exposing a lady's gbagaun with Facebook irony?

@7 defamation of xter based on grammatical error, hmmm, this one gidi gan, NL could be sued and lose millions,detrimental to its success

So exposing one's grammatical blunder is defamation of character? Na wa. Don't you think it's the person who's committing the blunders that should be sued for defaming the academic credibility of our young graduates?

@8, the said lady's account was probably 'hacked' by the op all in a bid to defame her Xter,hence, giving us false information

Oh, you use the word "probably". That means you are not sure of what you are saying. Facebook is yet to make a statement to suggest that her account was hacked thus you can't prove that the information provided by the OP is false.

@13, I did say this is a useless rule, as the case has been reported and mods inaction,

The mods will only act if the thread violated forum rules. In this case, no rule was broken hence the inaction.

@ 10 how do you know she is not a nairalander? I could even claim to be the one!

If you are the owner of the Facebook account, send the mods a PM with proof and the thread will be brought down asap.

By posting her data on NL, there has been Unlimited exposure which as breached fundamental right (she never intended her face on a faceless forum) by heightening her insecurity.

Kappish?

Yimu. Which fundamental right was broken? Is it right to freedom of expression or association or right to social amenities? Bros be explicit.

Heighten her insecurity? Insecurity about what? Her educational background? Bros, if that's the insecurity you are referring to, then it's a good insecurity. She needs to go back to the basics in English Language.

Ok, noted.

timawoku:
There is a 'trending' thread on NL thus. https://www.nairaland.com/1952877/suicidal-english-corps-member-rate#27204771 which is a clear violation of human right as well as NL rules, 3,7, probable 8,clear 10, and as nothing has been done so far (after pleas on NLDers) rule no 13 should be deleted, I can't imagine being a member of a forum that supports defamation of character, in an advance country, you would lose millions just by this sheer ignorance, all pleas has fallen under deaf ears, reports has not been adequately treated, thus, as a NLder, I request that you
*immediately delete the above post
*ban the OP
*tender an unreserved apology to NLders and the 'lady' in question
*issue a warning with respect to xter defamation
*query your MODs on why they have fallen deaf to the pleas of NLders to delete said thread
*reply with quick action.


LONG LIVE NAIRALAND

The OP didn't violate any of the forum rules. The lady in question isn't a nairalander so we can't say Rule 10 was violated. The other rules you listed: 3, 7, 8 & 13 has nothing to do with the thread?

Human rights you say? Whose human right was violated and how was it violated?

Baby Hello by Wande Coal.

This guy still got it in him. I still remember his Mushin 2 Mohits (M2M) Album. It was dabomb.
