Muscomide:
Unlike you, sir, I am not a paid e-rat, paid to defend the indefensible online. I merely speak out of genuine love for my fatherland. As things stand right now, APC is the only realistic agent of change in Nigeria.

Muscomide:
Change is imperative. Of what use is our democracy if the ruling PDP keeps winning elections? PDP, relying on the power of incumbency, has been 'winning' elections at the centre since 1999. Until we have a change of government at the centre, our democratic credentials remain suspect. Us Nigerians like to believe wrongly that we are the Giants of Africa, but the true Giants of Africa are countries like Ghana, Senegal, Zambia, Côte d'Ivoire, Togo, Benin Republic, Malawi and Kenya. These 'minor' fellow African countries have all succeeded in effecting democratic change at the centre, following democratic elections.

Using the English Premier League which Nigerians seem to follow passionately as an example, how compelling would the EPL be for fans if year on year, one football team, say for e.g Man United, had been winning the Premiership since its inception in 1992. Any genuine football fan would tell you how boring and predictable that would be. The joy of sport most times is for the underdog to triumph over the top dog.

Likewise for politics. Nigerians must not forget how fervently we all supported Obama's candidacy during the U.S elections because we were all fascinated by his underdog status - a black man, the son of a mere Kenyan immigrant father, taking on the might of white capitalist America and winning!

Fellow Nigerians, it is time for CHANGE!!

Barcanista did I not warn you of your impending death?

The Op's seeking his cheap two minute claim to Nairaland fame.


It's a cheap ploy!

berem:
you have done well in educating the ignorant mofos. leave them to continue wallowing in self denial all because they hate Buhari. Come 2015,Buhari is going to be the next Nigerian president. No lies and hate will stop him from occupying Aso Rock next year.

Candyrain:
No one is saying GEJ is the best and neither is Buhari a saint. Just that GEJ is a lesser evil compared to Buhari. Thanks

nigerianvenom:
no,u are wrong on this.buhari has a lot to offer.
1. he'll ensure sharia is implemented across nigeria.
2.he'll ensure his boys(boko haram) ends their operation.
3 he'll ensure there is no freedom of information and journalist will be guage and jail at will.
4 nigeria's capital will be moved to daura(his home town).
5 he'll do more...

but all these will happen on his dreams

BrosPeter:
OP datolee:
Very nice of you to disprove all the lies of this barcanista guy.

I think APC should withdraw their funding of barcanista, the money paid to the guy is a waste as proven here.

Firefire:
“7 things negative people (Like APC in Nigeria) will do to you. They will...

1. Demean your value;

2. Destroy your image

3. Drive you crazily!

4. Dispose your dreams!

5. Discredit your imagination!

6. Defame your abilities and

7. Disbelieve your opinions!

Nigerians should Stay away from negative people!”

Nigerians should Stay away from APC, they are malicious

Lets examine another lies from Buhari supporters on economy, this time by Ola Idowu http://saharareporters.com/2014/10/23/if-buhari-easy-defeat-why-fear-ola%E2%80%99-idowu

Quoting 6 paragraphs before the end of his If Buhari was easy to defeat, why the fear? essay



1. If Buhari paid off $4 billion of or foreign debt, how come the debt was higher than it was when he left office?

2. Shagari didn't borrow $15 billion, it was total debt before he left office, meaning, his borrowing plus the borrowing of previous government

3. It is on record that Shagari government refused to follow the IMF guidelines, including devaluation of Naira, the same thing Buhari supporter is using to hype him up

4. The inflation of 40% happened in 1984, that is during Buhari administration

5. Another big lie of the century, Nigeria never, and I repeat, Never operated budget surplus under Buhari!! The only times Nigeria had budget surplus were in 1971, 1972, 1995 and 1996. How these people can look people in their face and tell blatant lies just to sell their candidate is alarming. Nigeria's deficit under Buhari stood at N3.3 billion in 1983, N2.6 billion in 1983 and N3 billion in 1985

jamace:
OP, thank you for putting the records straight. This bacanista of a guy wants to balkanise Nigeria with ferocious lies and he will never succeed.

barcanista:
You explained nothing only giving bogus statement. Anyway, I I am doing a research on the actual debt acquired(If any) or otherwise by GMB's regime as at 1984 December and August 1985


Unfortunately, government agencies have the reputation of cooking figures to suit the person in Power. Iwaela comes to mind. Hence, I check and cross-check with reputable foreign sources, especially on issues like this. Anyway, the $50 million dollar external debt Paid by GMB's Administration was the ONLY one I came across after so many search on materials that was available as at that time. If I had got a hint of the inherited billions, I would have included it. Like I said, I am doing a research on the actual debt acquired(If any) or otherwise by GMB's regime as at 1984 December and August 1985



We are again going back and forth. Unfortunately, you didn't open that Yahoo link, if you did, you would have seen input of El Rufai(Before he became a Progressive) and Joe Odumakin, President of Campaign for democracy.

Did you read the link I provided to you? Ofcourse, you did but won't admit.




PS: Whenever, I am debating/arguing I am not doing it to win or lose but to present logical and verifiable argument and also to learn from the other party.

TheSonOfMark:
TInubu and GMB might not like GEJ but deep down they can't deny the fact that GEJ is still going to remain Nigeria's number one citizen for the next 4 years and 7 months.

Opiosko:
APC is a political fraud. It's time we let them alone wallowing in their lies and self deception.

Tonylyte:
You are a very bad person, did jonathan withdraw the troops he sent there? Go and read how many days it took ISIS and the malian tuareg rebels to take over the various countries they were operating. U are here crying about town, our gallant armies have held dis haram dude from penetrating into the country for almost a decade now, the same way they do in other countries, yet you ingrate fellows wount let the armies and our presido rest...your mates are in the nigerian army.
Gej till 2099
ROKIATU for miss nairaland till 2099

victorv12:
A president of a country which over 276 innocent girls were hijacked under his nose without fishing out the culprits and completly going to war, but rather parade himself with some known militants and economy saboteurs. This man will never be my president.

It's so unfortunate most Nigerians doesn't even know about the uprising in the military at the moment. Nigeria is a country on the brink of collapse under Jonathan's rule.

Tonylyte:
Hehehehehe, dude u nailed it. If apc supporters doesnt knw the worth of their president, important personels from other african countries do and they is nothing they can do about that.

danla44:
Chei.... This Jona na mumu...

cole265:
GEJ is not a PDP by heart....he is more of APC in his inner mind. but unfortunately for him, he is imprisoned to PDP for life by Asari and Patience. Just like Atiku is sentenced to APC by his ambition. Atiku is characteristically PDP.
Jonathan is characteristically APC

brownlord:
Lol, expect that ban feb 15 if Jonathan is reelected, never trust politicians, they just refute to gain vote and will announce the ban after winning election, if you doubt me, ask the Go and Die Comrade governor.

OreMI22:
Shebi we had a ceasefire with the animals?

That is why America has the age long wisdom of not negotiating with terrorists.

efilefun:
Later na people like una go dey shout say Nigerian leaders are lawless... Have u ever read the constitution before? where was it written that once he changes party he would lose his post? Dont forget this dude was a lawyer and he knows every before taking that step, Dont worry soon una GEJ go postrate before am just like LAMIDO

Nkemtreasure:
The judiciary is an arm of government. The courts have taken anti government stands before and it was right. If the plaintiff didn't follow the stipulated guidelines, do we blame it on GEJ? More over, the Court said that most of the information requested was already published. This has nothing to do with the president.
Let's live the man out of this. Two wrongs can never make a right. Since the woman left office, our airports have started failing. Her crime was 250m. Then what about the governor of Abia or Enugu who sacked his deputy to having a poultry farm or the Gov Amaechi who spent 1.04b on Ebola or Gov fashola who is building a rail line that is 3times costlier than the a rail line of longer distance built in Abuja or almost all the Governors in the country whom on a monthly base embezzle the LG allocations of their states or the National Assembly that take 1/3 of the national budget or the civil service who even aid this corruption. No politician can steal any money without the backing of a civil servant.
Sir, the Nigerian corruption problems is not for the president alone to tackle. If we put our hands together, we can stop it.

barcanista:
Here comes the troll and fallen one. Guy, can you tell us when the NASS acquitted her? For your information, NASS recommended her immediate sack as at then.
What about the Presidential Committee? they acquitted her? FYI they indicted STEALER ODUAH.

I shall be glad if you will provide your fact or I shall gladly supply you mine on request.

As for Ikuforiji, the EFCC still have the liberty to appeal his case, until an otherwise judgement from a competent court, he remains INNOCENT and not guilty nor indicted.

Ngwakwe:
Lagos State Speaker was acquitted lately of any corruption in court and it is now official that the corruption tag can no longer hold.

If I may ask you, Princess Stella Oduah approved N255M for the purchase of bullet proof Cars for NCAA and you declared her super corrupt what did you say when Mallam Sanusi used N1.2 billion to hiring private jets?

When is approving purchase of cars call corruption?

Moreover, nobody asked you if you were Igbo rather your conscience was not convinced you were actually Igbo.

It is good for you to do your homework very well before exposing your ignorance in public forum.

You want us to believe that Stella Oduah enriched herself with the contract for the purchase of the armoured cars when the report of the committees by both the NASS and Presidency ruled out such allegations.

Corruption was ruled out for the fact that there was zero evidence that she benefited anything from the transaction rather the issue under contention was budget limit and approval exceeding her office without recourse to National Executive Council hence she was indicted on alleged Executive recklessness and undermining of National budget.

Stop listening to Pull Her Down bigots

Baawaa:
By this time of next year GEJ and his co-looters will be in prison

Keneking:
Depleting cabinet...
Nobody is interested in his cabinet portfolio again since they know that he is going next year

Sheggy13:
I guess you are blind to read the disclaimer on nairaland :"You are solely responsible for whatever you write on nairaland ". Is that too complex for your thick skull to assimilate? World over, leaders are often criticized. Go to dailymail and see how they insult David Cameron, ditto Obama, Zuma etc. Have the ones in Nigeria suddenly become untouchables, and who made you their mouthpiece ? So it's you that needs to grow a pair.
