kobomoje:
@ kobojunkie: yes i am a (silent) Nairalander and it is a must for me to vist this site everyday. I occasionally log in to drop my comments.

Sarahluv:
PDP looks more likely to win. They will surely take the SS and the SE, get more than 30% of votes in the SW, win NC and most of NE. NW is the only area PDP will not make appreciable progress in the North

EzeUche:
Do anyone else see something wrong with this? French soldiers arrested him and handed him over to his opponent.

Africans need to think for once.

muami:
Unfortunately, I cant answer your question because from my primary school to secondary school, I always took the first position. Because of that I was given scholarship to go to the univerisity.Again, I had a first class. I was then given another scholarship to go to the UK for my Masters and yet again, I made a Distinction before I was awarded yet another scholarship to study for my PhD. So as you can see, I dont understand what it feels like to just pass or to be an 'also ran'.

binhozie:
What do you guys term "succesful" sef in these elections?
Because iyabo and bankole lost?

jmaine:
Seun go ban you now , remember he once used Buhari style to oppress sorry operate nairaland.com

muami:
If primary elections have any correlation with general elections, then PDP would have won all the South West States and Katsina because GEJ won those states during the primaries.Pls lets try and improve the quality of our arguments because I am unable to undertand what primary elections has got in common with general elections especially in the presidential elections where non of the candidates particpated in each other's primaries. ?

Jarus:
PDP won Kano NASS and will surely win Guber there too(due to Kwankwaso factor) but whoever thinks Jonathan will defeat Buhari in Kano must be dreaming.

The same Jonathan that did not win PDP primary in Kano. The slogan in PDP Kano is 'Kano Sai Kwankwaso, Naijeriya Sai Buhari'.

So Buhari's votes in Kano will be PDP+CPC.

luluosas:
[size=20pt]Nairalanders, do we really need to kill ourselves because of Jonathan and Buhari? If the current result as paraded by INEC is the real outcome of last Saturday NASS election, time will tell. Whether General Buhari win or not, one thing is sure. The man on the ground need no fear of falling but, the man up do. The more reason Jonathan will want to win by all means. Let's keep our faith firm on the belief that, the SUN shall rise again.[/size]

Just received my 1.5k from d pdp aspirant and I will neva vote 4him cos he had neva done anything tangible 4d past 4yrs

[b]Former Head of State and presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) has insisted that his government would remove the immunity clause that protects public office holders. He said propriety and accountability could not be compromised. Buhari made the assertion yesterday in Lagos while presenting his party’s manifesto. He said all vested interests would be challenged and that it would be no longer be business as usual.

“We shall challenge vested interests and erase unearned privileges. Propriety and legality will be our new watchwords and hopefully, in our time, this will become the new business as usual for the nation.” In addition, Buhari emphasised the need to “make the nation accountable and corruption-free and bring morality back to governance,”He vowed to “make the country uncomfortable for those who do not wish to play by the rules.”

Buhari, who was accompanied to Lagos by his running mate, Pastor Tunde Bakare and other party bigwigs informed that his party’s focus would be on five areas of concentration which he said, would guarantee the country to move forward.
The five-point agenda, according to Buhari were security, raising the standard of education, aggressive youth employment, rehabilitation of dilapidated infrastructure and total disarming of the Niger Delta and regular power supply. He said his team was on a rescue mission “to recreate Nigeria and transform it into a powerful and prosperous nation,” adding that “our focus will be on improving the efficiency of national economic management, and reintroduction of a national economic development planning and the plan to successfully manage change.”

Speaking further, the CPC presidential candidate invited everybody onboard “to come forward and join the struggle so that togetherness, we take the destiny of this nation in our hands and change it to a united, prosperous, caring, truly democratic Federal Republic.”

This, according to him was imperative going by the failure of the ruling peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which he said, had bastardised the nation in its 12 years of misrule, saying, such a party had no moral right to ask for peoples’ mandate again.
According to him, it was as if they only came to pauperise the nation saying, “it could be said that during their time, the only places that prospered were the cemeteries and the bank accounts of the thieving elite.”

He lamented that “people in their thousands died due to poverty, hunger, disease and violent crises and violent crimes, as custodians of nation’s resources smiled their ways to the bank.” Buhari and Bakare therafter led a road show from the Lagos Island to the Sky Power playgroung at the GRA, Ikeja where a mega rally was organised and addressed.

We will have a Buhari as president, instilling discipline and patriotism in the populace, leading by example, making us see reason why Nigeria is our collective project and why we must stay behind to develop it, from the street tailor to the Bank CEO

Bakare to support as VP

Merge ICPC, EFCC and other anti-corruption agencies together and give them to Sanusi, yes Sanusi, to deal with thieves(Nuhu Ribadu appears to have become too soft for that post again)

Deploy Okonjo Iweala to CBN as governor

Establish a Fund a la PTF, give Fashola headship to make oil money work for us, infrastructural revolution

Give Fola Adeola Finance ministry to complement Okonjo

Femi Falana as AG and Justice minister

Deploy Rotimi Amaechi to maybe Works & Housing ministry, to work with Fashola in infrastructural revolution

Give us a Pat Utomi Senate presidency, and kickstart an idea-based National Assembly, where issues will be intellectually laid bare.

Set up a team to come with a long term planning recommendation for Nigera, and give headship to Atedo Peterside.

A Nuhu Ribadu speakership will also ice the cake.


With a massive, practical re-orientation, driven by these men, it will be easy for teh populace to support, and the patritism trickles down.
