Have being seeing this cheap product use to campaign for GEJ.....but have not received any of it. Maybe because and and not his supporter......I want to know if any of GEJ supporter have received these stomach infrastructure. So GEJ in the house.....temitemi and other crew....let's hear from u

DeCritique:
Lolz... When I said Minister for Petroleum, I was talking about Buhari. Stop taking too much Orijin. It's beclouding your sight bro

#AdviceFromABro

So u have come back to your senses. Anyway, Buhari is the Minister of petroleum in nigeria that has no house in either Lagos or Abuja

DeCritique:
I guess you just recently came outta that bush village of yours to be asking me questions like that. Eeyah, condolences bro. I will ask Jona to raise a committee to look into the reason why the telecommunications giants have not found it worthwhile to bring their service down to ur villa.

Mad man: let me tell u about the office Tinubu has held in this nation
1. Senator during the short period of Shonekan representing Lagos west senetoria district
2. Governor of Lagos state for 8 years
he has not on anytime appointed as a minister....idiot.....

DeCritique:
Well, while Buhari was said to have made a way with a huge amount of money when he was Petroleum Minister, I can forgive him for that since it is in the past.

Amaechi has tried in Rivers state that is while he was under the Umbrella of the PDP. But since he joined the APC, nothing is working out well anymore. I can forgive him for that.

But Tinubu, the biggest Landlord in Nigeria, the Chief Captain of the Lagos ship, the Chairman of the Lagos Market, the controller of the Lagos seats in the senate, the President, National Corrupt Politicians Of Nigeria (NCPN), him I cannot forgive.

By hoarding the money that would have been used to positively influence the life of Nigerians, he has stamped down on the destinies of a whole lot looking to Lgos for a source of Livelihood

Richest landlord in nigeria? What of Jona, Akpabio, Jona jang, Atiku are they poor are they not rich.....and when was tinubu serve as minister of petroleum

DeCritique:
Good... Though Dele Momodu jumped the part where he had to critically examine the front headers/leaders of the APC and their body language to corruption

As far as Tinubu is there, APC is a no no for me... Buhari and Amaechi, I can condone but Tinubu, NO!!!!!

#GEJTill2019!!

Why only Tinubu

brownlord:
100 guest? Naha if ma ex family.

If you tell the lady you visiting their home, you are likely to meet not less than 50 people, if introduction hey expect like 200.

And for wedding that all the witches and wizard, dead and living ancestors will be made present.

I laugh that money won't be enough to buy ALOMO.

This should not be my bizness anyway

I thank God for u say na your ex or else your in trouble

temitemi1:
Tinubu is suffering from memory loss . GEJ till 2019!!!

May God add more greese to ur elbow...u will soon be Mute, you GEJ fans in this forum

afoo02:
Nice article, But uncle dele should pls keep the remaining 1 till some days to the election, cos there's no way Oga JONA will conduct the election if he continues reading something like this every Saturday. Buhari I know, Buhari I go VOTE for

Whenever it please the gods of Abuja let him conduct the election

Montaque:
My costly vote for GEJ in 2011 has led me to days of regrets and anger.
The expectations were not met, even when it is expected that having once had no shoes,he should know the plight of the poor masses.
The greatest we lost during these periods since 2011 has been the eroding values of the nation...
The sanctity of life
The national conscience
The guilt of wrongdoing
The boldness of evildoers
The open show of corruption
The profligacy in use of our resources
The utter reduction in our monies worth
The hardness of living here
The lower standard of goods in the market
The idleness of both employed and the unemployed.
Etc...

Honestly, GMB has a lot to do if he wins.

We must not make the mistake again!

Maccoy1:
TRULY THE EXPECTATION ON THIS GUY IS HEAVY...Just the other day i was in a BRT bus, some group of Men in the bus were arguing nd screaming their support for GMB nd GEJ, one man just shouted out of anger, he said " iF GMB wins I give him two years if he Doesn't implement all that he said, i will gather people to hold night vigil against him nd His family, i will be sending curse to him day nd night". people in the bus couldn't help but start laughing nd that ended the arguements...

Buhari, na me dey warn you now, if you know say you just dey play with our emotions no climb that sit oooo or else thunder wey go fire you dey do press-up

Don't worry my brother the peoples general as a good people around him....he will definately achieve is dream for this nation

PENDULUM BY DELE MOMODU, Email: dele.momodu@thisdaylive.com

Fellow Nigerians, let me confess that I do not envy General Muhammadu Buhari at this moment. I will explain what I mean very shortly and briefly. The People’s General, as I love to call him, is a victim of his own popularity. What ordinarily should have been an asset has almost become a liability, or put another way, a blessing turning to a curse. From all empirical data as well as mathematical calculations, General Buhari looks set to create a major upset on March 28, or whenever it pleases the gods of Abuja to hold the elections. A game of abracadabra is still playing out while the world is watching our shenanigans with pity or amusement or both.

The ruling party has chosen to engage in a political Russian roulette while the country speeds dangerously towards the abyss. Who are we to challenge those who see power as the beginning and the end and are incorrigibly committed to fighting to retain what they got on a platter of gold. At any rate, I am one of those subscribing to the permutations of a General Buhari victory no matter how tall a dream it seems. As a matter of fact, I’m willing and ready to place a bet that the election is not going to be as closely and keenly contested as many people think. I foresee a landslide that would make it difficult for troublemakers to practise their trade. The Buhari Movement has finally ignited and spreading at the speed of sound.

My simple and straight-forward projection is that both President Goodluck Jonathan and General Buhari would obtain and satisfy the mandatory 25% votes in two/thirds of the 36 states making up the Federal Republic of Nigeria (plus the Federal Capital Territory of Abuja, the ultimate seat of power). This translates to the fact that the two leading candidates must work assiduously at locking down 24 states each while battling hard to close the game with some blistering majority votes. I believe this is where Buhari would have a towering advantage.

If you consider my optimism a mirage, please cool temper for the D-day is at hand. By this time next week all us would have fixed our gaze on Saturday May 28, 2015. How time flies! When the elections were postponed, from February 14, 2015, it was as if the new date would never come. But blessed are the patient at heart for they shall inherit the earth. The PDP no doubt has regained some momentum and they have now had ample opportunity to bulldoze their ways into earlier impregnable fortresses with the whiff of money. But the effect is not yet palpable.

What is certain is that APC has sparked the panic mode in PDP. This seems to be their time. I’ve never seen President Jonathan work as frenetically as he’s being doing these past weeks. It is certain President Jonathan is under no illusion that this is going to be an easy task or mission. In fact, this is going to be a fiercer election than any we’ve ever seen in the past. The battlegrounds would most definitely be in the North Central and South West. General Buhari will lock down the North West and North East most categorically while President Jonathan will secure his traditional catchment areas, in the South South and South East. However, let me note that General Buhari is likely to make some incursion into President Jonathan’s territories than vice versa. The President today does not control a cult followership in any part of Nigeria while General Buhari enjoys some Rock star status in many parts of Nigeria where he has become the icon of change.

This fact was revalidated only yesterday in the presence of no less a witness than the Special Assistant to the President on Social Media, Mr Reno Omokri at the Transcorp Hilton hotel, in Abuja. I had entered a packed lift as the Hilton was teeming with activity as usual. As soon as I sauntered in, I was instantly hailed by most of the guys for supporting Buhari. The shout of “change” resonated and boomed in the lift. There was a white lady who appeared fascinated by the almost carnival-like atmosphere. Mr Omokri and I alighted from the lift same time and the gentleman of God requested for a selfie with me which I gladly obliged. I wished other Jonathians were as humble as Reno. I had always admired the man who had the incredibly difficult job of selling the image of an unpopular President. In recenbt time, he’s landed himself in trouble while trying so hard to make a success of a thankless job.
Anyway, the Transcorp Hilton encounter was only one of so many others during my short visit to Abuja. Everywhere I turned, the talk was about change. I am very certain that most of those supporting Buhari today are not members of APC. I’m not even sure many of them are his rabid fans. What I found common to them is their personal frustrations with a party that has been in power for 16 years with little to show for the support garnered from Nigerians. Some have openly confessed that Buhari is a candidate of necessity forced on them by limited choices. This is the thrust of my epistle today.

To whom much is given, much is expected. General Buhari is thus expected to be the Lamb of God who must be prepared to carry the sins of the world. He must possess the power of optical illusion in order to perform instant magic in a nation on its bent knees. First, Nigerians will hold him to the promise of killing corruption when the time comes. The cynics insist this is impossible and dismiss his most avowed credential as an anti-corruption crusader as a mere ruse and bloody hypocrisy. They point at the seemingly rampaging horde of politicians around him and wonder how he hopes to handle them.

They are right and wrong. They are right in as much as there are no saints in government anywhere. It is virtually impossible to win elections in Nigeria without huge sums of money for logistical and practical purposes. Everyone knows that the General has loads of integrity but no money. How then does he hope to tackle some of his supporters who may have profited from the proceeds of crime and corruption? A tough nut to crack; or so it seems! But I have a fair answer.
I have had the privilege of interacting a bit with General Buhari and his disciples and can safely confirm that he has what it takes to reduce corruption to its barest minimum allowed in decent societies. Trust me, the fear of Buhari is the beginning of wisdom in his camp. He regularly tells them not to treat him as robot. The almost surreal respect they have for him helps to whip everyone in line. And no one wishes to test the sharpness of his double-edged sword.

General Buhari recognises the fact that he has to carry saints and sinners along in party politics and a democratic setting. As a game of numbers, it would be foolhardy to be holier than the Pope. All the pontificating therefore must be measured and tested without rocking the boat entirely. He has learnt tremendous lessons and gained exceptional insight into how Nigeria works. He knows that as a civilian President, he will never be able to wield draconian powers like he did during his first coming as military dictator. History has a way of mellowing people down. The General Buhari that I see today is a man with a hard interior and a softer and more relaxed exterior. He would have to manage a delicate balance as a born again democrat. I’m sure he can do it.

The second challenge ahead of the new government, if Buhari wins as many expect and anticipate, is how to handle and ameliorate the intractable problem of mass unemployment. The General himself has confessed to this daunting challenge repeatedly. He says the first step is to stop the leaking economic sewage and block the drain pipes of unbridled corruption. A new regime of disciplined fiscal planning would have to be introduced pronto. Vocational training would have to be encouraged and recommended for the multitude of naturally endowed Nigerian youths. Nigeria is in dire need of technical expertise. Many artisans currently indulge in trial by error. Their income would improve once they can gain the confidence of clients and consumers.  Politicians, especially our elected representatives, would have to downgrade on their atrocious remunerations which have become so controversial and unsustainable. It is hoped that General Buhari would be able to convince our political office holders to have mercy on the rest of us. The era of over-inflated contracts would have to be jettisoned for a more reasonable and accountable process.
The collapse of education is not less important. In fact, it must form the bedrock of all developmental dreams and goals. No nation can advance to a developed status without correcting the anomalous and embarrassing state of our institutions from primary to tertiary level. The modest achievements of the Obasanjo administration have been wasted and truncated by subsequent governments. What makes the situation terrible is not just the fact that we are producing glorified illiterates in many institutions but the fact that the exodus of our kids to foreign lands in pursuit of the proverbial Golden Fleece has now become a major waste of our foreign exchange reserves. It is sad that many of the smaller and poorer countries around us have taken advantage of our cruel and retrogressive attitude to education. How General Buhari reverses this debilitating trend remains to be seen.

It is no longer a secret that our economy has been run aground by a most profligate government despite the pretentious grandstanding that ours is the largest economy in Africa. Many states are unable to pay salaries. The Naira has been in a free fall after nose-diving in a most cataclysmic manner. There is no way traders would not be wishing for a quick miracle before our businesses perish, especially those dependent on foreign exchange. The General and his crew must urgently tackle the over-dramatized issue of diversification of our resources to generate much needed income. We can no longer over-emphasise the importance of finding alternatives to oil which seems to have exterminated our thinking faculties. For a country reputed to be one of the largest oil producers, it is disgraceful that we are not able to refine most of our crude; we still flare our gas, and quite simply prefer the easy route to cheap money rather than invest in the creation of sustainable wealth.

Another crucial area for General Buhari to deal with is power, the generation, transmission and distribution of which seems to have become an impossible mission. It is so bizarre and inexplicable how the more investment we pump into having stable electricity, the lesser the result. Even with the much privatisation of this sector, we have had no joy.

The last and probably the most critical issue that the General will have to tackle and resolve quickly is that of the security of the nation. A nation may be rich, corruption free and peopled with citizens who are well educated and in suitably employment.  However, this will count for naught when their lives and property are not secure.  This is where the General’s military experience and his past antecedent as the scourge of another terrorist religious group, the Maitatsine Sect, will come into play. It is not just Boko Haram that we are worried about though. Although largely unspoken, because of the fear and support they are receiving, the country is being held to ransom by terrorists referred to as ‘militants’ simply because they come from the same area as the President.  It is not just because there is open plundering of our wealth through the large-scale, unbridled stealing of the nation’s oil but the thieving buccaneering spirit they engender means that others feed into their frenzy.  Hence, the spate of kidnappings and resort to use of sophisticated weapons and equipment by armed robbers remains largely unchecked. Our people, indeed our leaders as well, live in constant fear. But for now they dare not speak.  I am convinced from what I have seen and heard that the People’s General will deal with this issue of security in a decisive, efficient and effective manner.
I must add that it has been rightly observed by some people that General Buhari has not offered a solution to our apparently intractable security problem.  The answer is simple! The right security policy in the hands of the wrong leader will lead to further disastrous consequences.  I need say no more.
You can now see why no one should envy General Buhari. The cross he would have to bear would be a heavy one. I believe he has what it takes to take on the demons plaguing our country. He would have to step on some fat toes. However, it won’t be strange act to a man known for his no-nonsense approach.

With so much rancid rot refusing to leave us alone and in peace, we certainly need a General Buhari now more than ever.
I can’t wait.

XBLadez:
Fayose is right! Tinubu surely has a hole in his head and his ageing brain is beginning to melt around his skull. Why would Goodluck of all people approach him with that proposal? Only APC supporters would buy the story

Idiot, incase you don't known GEJ approached him for support in 2011, which he agreed and has to betray Ribadu, he taught the plan will work this time around.....BUT HE FAILED....what make u think that make jonathan to win SW then.....? Is because of Tinubu....or else Buhari would have win then!

clevvermind:
tinubu is just a cheap liar. he would soon go to jail.

Go jail? Is not possible....he has being alleged several time and he eventually win the case in court.....which shows his incorruptible

komek:
Go tell that to a mallam.

What is the different between u and mallam....religion? U guys are both dummy

komek:
Inasmuchas I have not been ur fan for sometime now, I am solidly behind u in this. The biggest problem we have in this country are the south Westerners. They keep creating problems that they cannot handle with their mouths.

It happens like that because we are the Alpha and Omega in this country.....u need to talk to us with respect

annazubi:
tell me one thing u've done for ur village since u were born. Only lazy fellows hate GEJ bc they want him to spoonfeed them.

Am sure ur father have never donate to support ur village (may be to construct bore hole or road) and u here insulting another fellow

bizhub:
Shonekah didn't have vice and abdusalami abubakar didn't have a vice president...APC na scam honeslty....God deliver us ..Interim doesnt hv vice..when they said Nigerian youths are unemployable,were they refering to gullible APC supporters??

U know GEJ....is full of deceipt he may think he can deceive the JAGABAN....

onatisi:
[s][/s]I don't reply animals. Use ur brains,rephrase ur sentence and I will reply accordingly .if you can't then please don't quote me again.

I don't blame u, I blame those that allow u come to this world...idiot

onatisi:
you are really the guy !!!!! 1000000gbosaa for u. I like seeing ppl that know what is going on . 90% of these dumbskulls believing every shit tinubu says live in lagos state ,they don't know what is happening. Gej has practically taken over 60% of the south west. He doesn't need to go to the north because the job is finished there already and the south east and ss are already in his kitty , apc is dead broke now , buhari candidacy has many question marks and many supporters have left him. Gej is winning the grounds again while apc dundee united ppl on nairaland keep shouting sai buhari, even the shouts of sai buhari and change has reduced drastically on nairaland ,hardly does apc threads reach 5 paged again unlike before when they used to reach 15 . It shows the apc popularity is fast dwindling beyond redemption. The one million man march which amaechi said will rattle pdp proved to be a huge flop and joke even in lagos state.

Where did u see the 60 percent that support GEJ I think....u don't know different between SW and SE....u MUMU

If Jonathan can approach Tinubu in 2011 for alliance I don't see any reason why Jonathan can approach for interim....but thank God he fail this time around

onatisi:
gej has no time to defend senseless accusations from senseless ppl and any senseless person can believe any senseless topic or allegation they wish

Mad man....don't he have media officer...what of his dogs....Abati, FFK and co allow them to say something.....

macpetrus:
WHY THIS CONSPIRACY THEORY??

Why should a sitting president offer u tinubu an interim VP.... But I trust Mr. Tinubu if he can get such offer he will surely jump at it, because
tinubu is a strategic opportunist!!


I am not supporting GEJ’s government but Mr Tinubu I don’t believe your story

You are not the one to believe let Jonathan himself comeout and defend himself

by Peter Claver Oparah
The only constant thing in life, as the age old
aphorism goes, is change. Implied in this is the
feeling that life is not static; it changes as it goes
on. The most contentious word in Nigeria's
political lexicon today is change. It is contentious
because while many yearn, yell and demand for
it, some others stuff their ears to it and if
possible, will not mind carrying out an exorcism
to ensure that the word is permanently shut off
from wherever they are. How one takes the
change that is wildly trumped in Nigeria today
depends on one's positioning in the roiling
political sphere in the country.
While those favored by the farcical running of
the country's affairs do everything to stultify
change, those at the other end - and they are
legions - want change so badly.
While those that immensely benefit from the
gargantuan corruption that has been made an
integral component of governance in Nigeria,
especially in the last six years will do everything
to frustrate change, those that have been so
badly assailed by the vicissitudes of a
mismanaged state see in change, their
opportunity to get their just recompense from a
state they feel has treated them so awfully. So it
is different strokes for different people hut
change still remains the only constant in life so
the big question remains; with the present state
of Nigeria at present, who doesn't want change?
Who wants the status quo to remain as it is
today! Who stands to lose should we change the
dawdy way our nation is ran? Who believes that
we have hit out optimum best with the
crumbled and wrecked country we have today?
These questions are germane for us to calibrate
the Nigerian citizenry on two clearly distinct lines
and take stock as a way of rightly approaching
the multifarious problems of statehood we are
grappling today. It is apt for us to separate the
sheep from the goats and reach a conclusion of
what may likely be the outcome of the March 28
presidential election.
Who doesn't want a change from the state of
acute corruption where the pestilence is made to
assume a domineering role in the governance of
the country? Who doesn't want a change from
the recurrent stories of trillions of Naira and
billions of dollars that get stolen by itchy
fingered government officials on a daily basis?
Who doesn't want a change from a seedy
contract culture that deigns government
contracts as settlements for various political jobs
done for those in government? Who doesn't
want a change from a situation where we have
allegedly spent over $35 billion on power for the
past sixteen years and today, we are suffering
from a near total national blackout, with
exorbitant tariffs even after a failed privatization
of public power supply?
Who in Nigeria today, doesn't want a change
from a situation where millions of unemployed
graduates were extorted N1,000 each, packed
into all available stadia like sardines and some
trampled to death for nonexistent 3,000
immigration jobs? Who doesn't want a change
from such ravaging poverty that has placed an
oil rich country as having the second largest
population of poor people in the world while our
so called leaders lead a mind boggling life in
obscene opulence? Who doesn't want a change
from a country riddled with unbridled impunity
where the rich and powerful is encouraged to
prey on the weak and the poor for their survival?
Who doesn't want a change from a country
where the health sector has died irretrievably
while the citizenry are allowed to procure death
in the glorified mortuaries that pass as clinics
and hospitals? Who doesn't want a change from
a country where our educational sector is so
poorly rated such that our schools cannot even
compete in the West African sub region! Who
doesn't want a change from a country where a
shoeless president measures prosperity by the
number of parasites that live off stealing the
commonwealth and buying private jets?
Who doesn't want a change in a country where a
convoluted petroleum sector has ensured that
even at one of the highest prices of fuel per liter
in the world, we are today struck down by fuel
crisis and petrol is sold at over N150 a liter
where you see it? Who doesn't want a change in
a country where a sitting government cannot
maintain refineries built by former military rulers
but still appropriate billions of dollars as
maintenance cost while leaving the country to
fully depending on over priced imported
petroleum products? Pray, who doesn't want a
change from a country where kerosene is over
priced at over N160 per liter but where
government fools itself that kerosene is sold at
N50 a liter so that the N110 difference is
multiplied by the trillions of liters they say we
consume and shared out to cronies and party
men as kerosene subsidy?
Who doesn’t want a change in a country where
the country is fast becoming tissue paper, where
inflation has made mincemeat of the citizens and
where standard of life is so unreachable that free
and healthy citizens improvise every crooked
means to survive? Who doesn’t want a change in
country where able bodied citizens engage in
every desperate effort to escape to our less
endowed neighbours, a country whose citizens
are deported in droves by war torn Sudan?
Who doesn't want a change from a country
where life expectancy has plummeted from 56
to 39 in the six years of the present government
even as an unprecedented oil boom has ensured
that the same government makes more money
that four preceding regimes combined? Who
doesn't want a change from a system where
rouges, criminals, fake pastors, scoundrels are
freely shared the national patrimony when
hundreds of millions cannot afford one decent
meal a day? Who doesn't want a change in a
country where state resources are treated as
free fund by rampaging party chieftains when
mass poverty makes unimpeded rounds among
the famished Nigerian citizenry? Who doesn’t
want a change from a system where the hefty
increment in petrol prices three years ago has
become a SURE-P slush fund freely raided by
overfed party leaders while millions die of want
each week? Who doesn't want a change from a
situation where the Works Ministry was allocated
a paltry N11 billion in the 2015 budget yet a
private television station that does hatchet jobs
for the PDP was allegedly given N10 billion to
manufacture and run smear hate propaganda
against the opponents of the PDP?
Who doesn't want a change in a situation where,
as former CBN Governor, Charles Soludo alleged,
a sitting government has not added any kobo to
the foreign reserve left by its predecessor but
has rather depleted it in questionable
circumstances even as oil was selling at more
than double the price when this foreign reserve
was built up? Who doesn't want a change from a
country where the former CBN Governor, Emir
Sanusi Lamido alleged that $20 billion was
unremitted to the country's treasury by a shady
NNPC but the issue was deliberately ignored?
Who doesn't want a change in a country where
the same Soludo alleged and insists strongly that
a whopping N30 trillion was stolen under this
regime?
Who doesn't want a change from a state
hobbled by a despicable show of lack of clue and
incompetence by a sitting government; a state
where infrastructures have decayed
proportionally, where the fangs of the state of
nature are so unfurled that life totters on the
Hobbesian fringe? Who doesn't want a change
from a country where roads are perpetually bad
and government gloat about poor patch works
on few roads? Who doesn't want a change from
a country where graduate unemployment is a
norm? Who doesn't want a change from a
country where party men and enablers live a life
of sybaritic pleasure; at the expense of the over
140 million others who have no idea where the
next meal will come from? Who doesn’t want a
change from a country where over 400,000
barrels of oil are stolen daily by God-knows-whom
while many are paid trillions every year to guard
oil pipelines? Who doesn’t want a change in a
country where rehabilitated criminals are
empowered with such tremendous resources to
make them trillionaire owners of choice jets,
properties and proprietors of universities?
Who doesn't want a change in a country where a
sitting government desperate to continue in
power, has deployed extensive state fund solely
to run a campaign of hate, lies, propaganda,
untruth, forgeries, smear bricks, abuses, insults
and blackmail when it should be advertising
what it did with the enormous resources that
accrued to it these past six years? Who doesn’t
want a change from a party which had been in
power for sixteen years but today runs ragged,
confused and tattered behind the looming
silhouette of the opposition candidate?
Who doesn't want a change in a country riffled
thoroughly by insecurity, intentionally promoted
ethnic and sectarian hatred? Who doesn't want a
change from a country where a sitting
government had invested so heavily in dividing
Nigerians along tribal, ethnic and religious lines
for its own selfish interests? Who doesn't want a
change from a country where criminals rule as
unchallenged warlords while trillions of Naira
voted yearly as security budget disappear into
the ubiquitous pockets of party henchmen? Who
doesn’t want a change from a country where
citizens depend on I-pass-my-neighbour
generators to power their houses, where they
improvise their security, where they beg for
drinkable water from those that are blessed to
sink boreholes, pave their roads, etc?
I may go on and on but for brevity and space
but the imperatives for change in Nigeria today
are so overwhelming that it is not difficult to
discern why the word Change has assumed a life
of its own. I know why Nigerians want change,
so do majority of Nigerians but I don’t know why
those that are fighting change are doing so. I will
be glad to be so educated. Meanwhile, I and my
family have chosen to vote for change. So
choose for yourself what to vote for.

Electricity tripped off, Akpabio blame APC

Why JONA JANG.....you made everybody laugh

What is Mimiko saying?

Abuja, Nigeria, 10 March 2015: Former Vice President and chieftain of All Progressives Congress (APC), Atiku Abubakar has said that his commitment to the APC and the success of its presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari and other candidates of the party in the 2015 general elections is unwavering and never been up for bargaining.

The former Vice President made the assertion against the backdrop of reports in a section of the media of his purported return to the fold of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

"I remain irrevocably committed to the APC, as I promised in my concession speech at the conclusion of our party's presidential primaries, and has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the victory of General Muhammadu Buhari and other candidates of our great party at the general elections," the former Vice President is quoted to have said.

A statement by the Atiku Media Office in Abuja on Tuesday said that reports of the Turaki Adamawa's purported return to the PDP or any other party is the handiwork of mischief makers focused on pitching the former Vice President against other leaders of the opposition party.

Atiku Abubakar said that for the avoidance of doubt he is unequivocally committed to the unity of APC and that it will take more than the antics of mischief makers to break that bond.

Atiku Abubakar noted that his return from Adamawa, where he convened a stakeholders' meeting and reconciled disagreeing camps within the party, towards ensuring victory for the APC bears eloquent testimony of this commitment.

The statement reminded that the former Vice President currently supports the financial operations of the APC in many states, in most cases as a sole financier.

"I have backed my words and commitment with my resources to ensure that I bring my influence and support to bear on our party's march to victory at all levels in the general election. That should be enough to shut up mischief makers bent on derailing the APC's success at the March 28 and April elections," he said.

The Atiku Media Office observed that as one of Nigeria's astute politicians and businessmen, there may be overtures from across political divides to the former Vice President, but restated that Atiku Abubakar has publicly stated his commitment to the APC and has privately rebuffed the approaches from all quarters.
