First of all i want to condemn castigating a whole region because of the selfishness of a few.
The Current administration still enjoys a great deal of support from the south west.
That said i am impressed that a few people here could actually see through what is actually happening.
It is bewildering that the change apostles accept that Buhari is not the best they could offer but yet they still presented him Why?
Because performance is least on the minds of the perpetrators of this power play where by GMB who is believed to enjoy huge support from
the North is made an ally to the south west in a bid to return power to the pre-GEJ arrangement.
I say no to the politics of blackmail.

The Facts about the hideous plot are these:

1. Performance is least of there priority.
2. It does not have the interest of the common man who they have being trying hard to sell this twist as CHANGE.
3. Not all South Westerners support this plot. GEJ enjoy a huge number of support there.
4 It will failed woefully by his grace.
5. This one will be hard for them to digest sha, i was amazed too. But the personal and individual opinion i got from south westerners in lagos, OFFLINE, APC IS TAGGED A PARTY OF THIEFS AND CRIMINALS.

NgeneUkwenu:
The statement of result is written from the original print of The cambridge result!

The statement of result was written today and signed today at the instance of buhari!

Please let's observe this, Your original certificate becomes ready and available few years after WAEC.
I recently went back to my secondary after 14yrs of graduation fir my certificate from WAEC because the school I applied for MSC rejected statement if waec result from my secondary school just like the one allegedly issued to buhari.

Now why would an institution issue another statement of result 53yrs after when the certificate from WAEC should be ready.
I'm just thinking though not accusing anything.

The Nigerian Army has said it is not in possession of the original or photocopies of the credentials of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.

It said at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday that it had a letter from the Principal of Buhari’s secondary school, dated 1961, recommending him for enlistment into the military school.

Details later…

For the record, i am on the side of the rule of law on this certificate saga....

PhockPhockMan:
I do respect you as reasonable and intelligent fellow, now I'm disappointed. So because you've been stealing undetected for long makes it your right to continue stealing?

OH MY GOD.

Barcanista fall my hand sha, but then that is politics no one is obliged to accept the truth especially when it is not is there interest.
I hope buhari has this certificate tucked away somewhere or a solid defense/explanation.
The fact that an individual cheated in his exam since his final year has nothing to do with the fact that he was caught cheating and rusticated in his final year.

I wonder how hard it is to come to the realization that if truly GMB has no SSCE certificate, that his entire military career was built on fraud and in jeopardy. Even worse criminal charges and jail time in sane region of the world.
But in Naija your recent crime is an alibi and defense for the previous ones comitted against the law.

Algebra12:
Sorry, do you mean the ones collected by numerous Agberos and task forces in Lagos?

Back to topic. It is more economical to block avenues of corruption than spending more money prosecuting those who benefited from the porous system.
A commendable policy I must add.

We are together in this. The country is riddled with very porous system up to the Constitution.

Fellow Nigerans, I implore you all for goodness sake.
Let persuade these presidential candidiates into organizing series of debate so we can know who has exactly what to offer.
We have serious issues bedeviling our dear country at this time.

Let the continuity team tell us what they want to continue with ( No power, how to improve the very low employment rate, tacial infrastructural decay, the health and education sector and the most importantly our very porous constitution which has allowed for mass corruption and outdated inefficient policies to tactical it).
Then the opposition team should do so as well and for the love of the country tell us why an important tool of change ( Freedom of information Act) keep missing from states they already control.

Obviously both parties are engaged in media blackmail at the moment to confuse the electorates from asking the real questions so as to decide whom to vote.

Eziachi:
A stack illiterate is someone who cannot read or write in any language.

The word is fraud if proven beyond reasonable doubt.
I must condemn the way APC has handled this issue, I would rather they shout up, let this blown over or respond with proof to any one or organization that drags it to court.
But instead they release very condescending statements that further jeopardize there integrity, and paints the picture that anything goes in Nigeria and nothing can be done about it.

FrankC3:
With the position of APC highest ranking officer on this, I am afraid that the worst is starring us in the face. The reality is this:

1. That the basic requirement for joining Nigeria Military in 1962, as it is today, is still an O'Level certificate.

2. That Mr Buhari did not have the basic requirements for enrolling in the army but 'somehow' got himself enrolled with his knowledge as an adult.

3. That Mr Buhari rose through the rank of the Military, an employer that he should not have joined had he declared that he did not have the employment requirements. Basically, Mr Buhari kept the information on his true qualification status from his employers until he grasped the reigns of power at the highest level.

4. That Mr Buhari's employers - the Military would not have sent him for capacity development trainings had they known that he did not qualify to be with them in the first place.

5. That Nigerians believed Mr Buhari to be a qualified Military officer when he took over leadership of the country by the barrel of the gun, not knowing that he is not even qualified to be an army officer in the first place by the virtue of his lack of requisite qualification.

6.That under Mr Buhari's leadership, Nigerians were flogged openly for indiscipline, not knowing that the man that gave the order is guilty of not only sacking the democratic government in place, but also for not even being qualified to be where he was.

7. That Mr Buhari lied to more than 150 million Nigerians that he had the minimum education to be their President in 2003, 2007 and 2011, lied to the INEC and lied to the Military.

8. That Mr Buhari lied under Oath that his certificates are with the Nigerian Military, it seems however that Mr Buhari does not have even the photocopy of his own credentials.

9. That Mr Buhari and his APC party would want us to neglect all these facts and still vote in Buhari to come and fight corruption.

The PDP is also interestingly quite about this. It could either be that they are so sure of defeating Buhari in 2015 and would not like to rock that chance just yet or they have another game up their sleeve.

Whatever the APC like, they can tell themselves but this is not looking good. It would be bad enough to say that a former President of Nigeria did not have secondary education (I think an equivalent of High School) certificate. It will also be bad to find out how exactly he was able to maintain this lie through his military career.

Brother I am not gay but I LOVE YOU.

Eziachi:
When you decide to leave politics to the politicians, you will see things differently.

The secondary school he attended is still with us, most of his class mates are still around. That is why all these do not make any sense.

Who is us? And what school is that .
His biography happens to always omit that part of his life before his military career.
and I am saying that his military career is void without the story leading up to it

Eziachi:
Of course Guinness can call First Bank, its called referencing. Its even more authentic that calling your school as far as the Nigeria corrupt society is concern.
All our employees, I got everything about them with their own authorization from their previous employers including their qualifications. Its done everyday as we speak. What is the school no longer exist, like my old missionary primary school, what then?

Ministry of education will always be there .

Eziachi:
He is not qualified to be my demi god. I already had one- my late parents.
If Buhari certificate is your cure for Ebola, do something about it and stop moaning on the internet, while he is busy campaigning tomorrow at your backyard.

Mr Eziachi, please let get this right, I care less about APC and PDP much like you.

Now buhari in his affidavit referred inec to Nigeria Military. Let get this clear, no particular credential or certificate was specified.
The Military will only have records of training they sent buhari on much like every other company or employer does no doubt. The question now is what qualification did buhari posses that gained him entry into the military?
The military have also said that they can only posses photocopies of credentials submitted to them.

Practically if I lie or forge my way into an organization , work and retire after 50yrs, I would still face criminal charges if discovered later in future.

double0seven:
Seriously, what really is in contention? Is the concern that General Buhari does not have the academic qualification to be the president of Nigeria?

Many idiots above even have the guts to be saying and repeating over again that GMB is an illiterate.

How very absurd. For anyone to claim such, he has to close his eyes, brain and heart to a very obvious truth since they are hired for a price to do what they are doing, otherwise, under what consideration does GMB qualify as an illiterate?





Buhari joined the Nigerian Army in
1962, when he attended the
Nigerian Military Training College
(in February 1964, it was renamed
the Nigerian Defence Academy,
(NDA)) in Kaduna. From
1962-1963, he underwent Officer
Cadets training at Mons Officer
Cadet School in Aldershot in
England, United Kingdom (Mons
OCS was officially closed down in
1972).

In January 1963, Buhari was commissioned as second lieutenant, and appointed Platoon Commander of the Second Infantry Battalion in Abeokuta, Nigeria. From November 1963- January 1964, Buhari attended the Platoon Commanders’ Course at the Nigerian Military College, Kaduna.
In 1964, he facilitated his military
training by attending the Mechanical Transport Officer’s Course at the Army Mechanical Transport School in Borden, United Kingdom.

From 1965-1967, Buhari served as
Commander of the Second Infantry
Battalion. He was appointed Brigade Major, Second Sector, First Infantry Division, April 1967 to July 1967.

Buhari was made Brigade Major of
the Third Infantry Brigade, July 1967 to October 1968 and Brigade Major/Commandant, Thirty-first Infantry Brigade, 1970-1971. Buhari served as the Assistant Adjutant-General, First Infantry Division Headquarters, 1971-1972. He also attended the Defense Services Staff College, Wellington, India, in 1973.

From 1974-1975 Buhari was appointed Acting Director, Transport and Supply, Nigerian Army Corps of Supply and Transport Headquarters.
He was also made Military Secretary, Army Headquarters,1978-1979, and was a member of the Supreme Military
Council, 1978-1979.

From 1979 -1980, at the rank of colonel, Buhari attended the US Army War College (established in 1901) in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, United States of America and gained a Masters Degree in Strategic Studies . Upon completion of the on-campus full time resident program lasting ten months and the two-year-long, distance learning program, the United States Army War College (USAWC) college awards its graduate officers a master's degree in Strategic Studies.

The right word is FRAUD.
if he never attended any secondary school, or posses senior school from any institution which is a prerequisite for admission into Nigeria Army.
In saner climes if found wanting in a court of law is a criminal offense. Punishable by stripping him of all career achievement till date plus jail time.

Now that would be the changeall want, won't it??

Obiagelli:
Secondary school keeps records from the 60s?

Mine has records from 1929. That is after word war 2 and the civil war.

The Nigerian Ministry of education should have it too.

Ojiofor:
Nigeria must avoid this embarrassment called buhari at all cost.he was a product of corruption,he joined the military without academic qualifications as recent events have proven.he rose to top ranks through involvement in coups and finally he became head of state by toppling democratic elected government.Today he wants to become president through corruption by lying under oath about his certs.

See Crimes..........

Obiagelli:
They should get the damn thing from the Military board and stop this nonsense once and for all. We have very important things to discuss in the run up to the elections.

You do realize that the relationship between buhari and the military was basically that of an employer and employee?
The Military can only have photocopies of certificate you provided to them at the point of recruitment also he would have records with the Nigerian military but what is in question here is his certificate prior his military career, the certificate that earned him entrance into Nigerian military.

Now I am not sure what the lowest entry requirements is or was for the Nigerian military in 1962, assuming it is senior school certificate, then the military has no obligation to provide the photocopies he must have submitted prior entry.
It's is GMB's duty to contact the secondary he had attended in 1962 to ask for replacement, in a situation where the school doesn't exist anymore, the ministry of education should have it.
In the case where he provided an affidavit, such affidavit should detail the institution, the type of certificate and the year obtain.
With such the organization being presented with the affidavit could proceed to appropriate ministries for investigation.

Reminds me of when Orji uzo kalu came to my school in 1999, while addressing us he mentioned that he was a labor captain the crowd went awol, with students running to the prefects board room to search through the prefects board from 1929 till we found his own.
Lo and behold his name was there.

ndu_chucks: The fact remain that these 'owners' can help GEJ acomplish his goal. But GEJ's Ministers and loudmouths like Asari-Dokubo who speak for GEJ, have been threatening the very people whose help will be needed. This is quite foolish.

Good politicians will not alienate their power base and squander the goodwill they enjoy and tribalize polity in a destructive manner.

Nice observation it goes a long way to further explain that GEJ is being battled for self purposes that will never benefit Nigerians.
Doing the right thing to benefit Nigerians might mean stepping in toes including the ones that help him him to power.

Nigerians are always confused and are found of attaching value where none exists! To the best of my knowledge, polytechnic graduates beat their university counterparts in vocational and technical courses any day, any time. The universities should even be proud they are equated to polytechnics...SMH!

It's appears so because we are in an under developed country where we do more of operation, implementation and maintenance
Which is the job of technologists from polytechnic and there curriculum is designed to achieve that.
Our engineer's can hardly create nor design with our educational curriculum is lagging far behind that of the developed world.
Imagine Fortran 77 a programming language of 1977 still in our curriculum.
We still do manual engineering drawing while we have all kinds of Cad software(autocad,solidwork, master cam, inventor) etc out there being implemented in curriculums around the world.

zebra: u mean u hate technologists? It means u're not a good engineer. Do u do engineering work without technologists? Do u implement ur designs by urself? U have to work with them, they are part of the engineering team.

On point.
A Lot of people don't understand the relationship between an engineer, a technologist and a technician.
Universities award B.eng, B.sc etc,
Colleges and polytechnic award 2yrs OND which is equivalent to graduate diplomas who are referred to as technicians, 3 or 4yrs co-op/I.T HND which is equivalent to advanced graduate diplomas who are referred to as technologists.

Technologists operator and maintain while engineers can do the job of both the technician and technologist,he can also design which is the main advantage.

In conclusion, yes, b.eng or bsc is higher than hnd or Ond. It is niether the same nor equivalent.
N.b unilag can not award B.eng because it is not a university of science and technology like Futo or Esut.

ilugunboy: Am sorry if you feel that way....however, from antecedent in this community...majority of the people that supports NOI and her other non-performing officials from the East are Ibos.

I have no apology for that.

Replace your brain with bitter leafs.
It produces far much bitterness..

papparatzzi2013: Anambra will definitely lord it over all of you. As usual

Are they the warriors or they are the lords while others are osu caste? They are too domineering and aggressive over other y1bos.

My observation.

Seed of discord in the making.

This is why state of origin should be replaced with place of birth.
Characterizing people from particular states or region would entirely be defeated.

one.east1:
Anuofia, I have kept telling you we Anambrans has nothing in common with you people from Imo state. Stop trying so hard to be our brothers we do not want to be any part of it. Anambrans has links with Delta, Enugu, Kogi, Rivers (via Atani-Ogbaru) and Abia. So go and look out for your brothers because we do not consider you and your people as one.

Nwanne na wetin that one cone mean now?
Mara nu udi Ihe unu na nekwu.
Igbo na igbo ekwesigi I na anu ogu na ezi.
Imo na Anambra bu ofu.
from arondizuogu to akaowa to uga junction.
Ha Nile na asu ofu asusu.
Mua bu Nwa Anambra ma na etoro m na Abia.
Otu Ihe ka Anyi na azo na Otu obi.
Ka udo diri Anyi nile.

Abagworo: Not all Igbos are dumb. The Igbos claiming to support Jonathan or loyal to Peter Obi are the ones creating enmity for us. Most Igbos including myself would love to have a country of our own but in such a way as to be at peace with our neighbours. You cannot annex someone who does not see himself as part of you or plan a peaceful separation after using tribalism and religion as a political tool.

Does Governor Amaechi see himself as an Igboman? The answer is "NO" but he knows that he is obviously related to Igbo and so does every Ikwerre man. Why nobody will like to be part of the so-called Igbo country is because of the way they are going about creating enemies for themselves.

As for land Igboland(Imo, Anambra, Abia, Ebonyi,Enugu, Oshimili/Aniocha in Delta State, Oyigbo/Egbema in Rivers State) is large enough to contain us if we replan our land and create 5 modern cities of small landmass but with mostly highrises of 40 to 50 storey buildings. Create an agricultural belt and an industrial belt. Dredge the Niger, Orashi and Imo River to Atlantic Ocean. We can achieve this easily if we work at peace without any part trying to lord over others.

On point,
State of origin should be abolished with the introduction of place of birth.
This will greatly ensure that no part considers itself superior over others.
And foster integration.

c0llynz02: Most useless comment of the year!

The guy deserves an oscar

lutheran: your comment shows why you can not become ordinary councillor in your ward

In politics there's no permanent friend no permanent enemy but permanent
interest...........and while keeping your friends close try and keep your enemies
closer. hmmmm ASIWAJU.............

And what has the permanent interest if these old fools been since 1960?

geeez: Who are the they?

Nissan is building its plant in Lagos while Toyota will partner with Elizade to establish an assembly plant in Ondo. Then Ogun will pull Honda through banking on its proximity to Lagos. I'm not prophesying, predicting or soothsaying but it's what I know and it's based on the information that I have

Generally, companies will move to places where the following are guaranteed:

1. The Market (The SW currently has the highest per capita)
2. Security (The SW remains the most secure for FDIs)
3. Infrastructure (Lagos has a viable port and the SW states are well connected to the rest of Nigeria)
4. Manpower (Very much in abundance in the SW)

Listen bro,
Akwa ibom has a viable port too, which should be allowed to develop further through with such industries begin sited there.

If you are looking for state inter connectivity then the middle belt will do just fine.
Besides factory and plants are normally located in rural and remote areas for production there by developing and enpowering the locals not in an already saturated area. Developed areas can be used for headquarter and official management.

The manpower can by located everywhere in Nigeria, if a high number of people in Lagos are immigrant what stops them from migrating to places of newer potential.

Finally your information you claim to have is inconclusive, these automaker might have there dealerships in Lagos that does not mean they will or should locate there factory there.

geeez: Companies move to places where their interests will be served

What I've posted is based on the insight I have

I didn't ask you to like it or believe it

Dude that is a grossly selfish insight.
And please can you explain what interest you are talking about and why it won't be served in other regions
