You gave him 6years but constrained him using your false federalism(Unitary system)


When Nigeria is ready to make States LGAs and Private Sector the vanguard of economic diversification, growth and development, we should be expecting more of this.

You understand hausa while in my own case I am hausa and the rally in question was in kaduna and. I watched it live. What he said might have been a wrong choice of words. But as for meaning, that's exactly what we Saw after the election.

tit:
where is his "school certificate" or any academic award given to Buhari by the US War College?
Nobody is doubting that buhari saw the walls of US war college, Mons and many other martial institutions.
his problem is to produce any educational qualifications he may have.
Platoon leaders course is not an educational qualification.

Akinjide Attacks Buhari for Truncating Lagos Metroline Project!



http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/akinjide-attacks-buhari-for-truncating-lagos-metroline-project/197960/

The hype about Buhari is his past records.
This too is part of it.

And "progressives", before you shout "propaganda", please put a call to your vision-less, clueless, myopic and bigotic messiah and ask him why he canceled it.

To all real Progressives, please keep the light burning!
Keep educating th gullible.
Victory is assured.
Let us consolidate the powerful gains of the las four years.

And please, don't get into any fight with any "progressive".

It is pointless, arguing with the blind about the colour of an electric bulb.
Cheers to all.

CORRECTED!!!

Abuja- President Goodluck Jonathan made tax payments of N6,264,221.75 to the Federal Inland Revenue Service, (FIRS), out of a total of N43,230,871.44 as president between 2011 and 2013.
https://dvsl3w2q45hb8.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/tax.png https://dvsl3w2q45hb8.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Jonathan.jpg

Details of the president’s tax payment also showed that the president did not earn any other income besides his fixed income as president of the country in that period. There were no indications of income from stocks or other businesses that the president could have had.

Despite earning a regular service of N14,410,290.48 in each of the three years, the president tax liabilities however increased in 2012 and 2013 to N2,510,775.77 up from the N1,242,670.21 paid in 2011.

The returns were displayed at the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, at Area 10, Abuja.

The income tax clearance certificate from the Federal Inland Revenue Service with Ref no- Abj/MDA/PAYE/09690150 and dated July 2, 2014 were part of the president’s submission as presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP.
The document tagged with: “To whom it may concern,” indicated that the president’s source of income was ‘employment’.

The clearance which was stamped and received in the Legal Services Department of INEC on December 18, 2014, reads- “This is to certify that Dr. Jonathan Ebele Goodluck (Presidency), has paid income tax assessment for the past three years.

22 REASONS WHY BUHARI CAN NEVER
RULE NIGERIA
Originally By: Kekere ekun and Co.
In my books, Buhari is a pretentious anti-
corruption fighter. The trajectory of a
man's journey in public life matters. For
the follwoing reasons I can not vote for
Buhari
1. He is an oligarch who does not believe in
equality before the law. The way he jailed
Lateef Jakande, Jim Nwobodo, Ambrose
Ali, Pa Adekunle Ajasin, Chief Ayo
Ojewumi on cases that had no foundation
and allowed Awwal Ibrahim, the then Niger
State governor, who was arrested in
Heathrow Airport in London with 14 million
pounds sterling and several millions of
Niara and dollars to be under house arrest
is my evidence. He also allowed Shehu
Kangiwa, Sokoto State Governor who
conducted and supervised the famous
Bakolori Massacre of poor peasant
farmers whose land were appropriated
without compesation to remain under
house arrest.
1(a) Ayo Ojewumi became blind as a result
of his imprisonment over false charges and
died shortly after.
1 (b) Prof. Ambrose Alli also became blind
as a result of this false imprisonment.
When he died, he had only one
undeveloped plot of land to his name.
1© Pa Adekule Ajasin was never the same
after his eventual release and remained
sickly for the rest of his life. Whe he
died, he never had any property anywhere
in the world except the one he had built
from his sweat as long term teacher and
school principal in Owo township.
2. He put in place a retroactive law that
killed three men, innocent men in my book,
by public execution. He left untouched an
alleged well known drug baron in Ibrahim
Babangida who later overthrew his
government.
3. He jailed Ndukar Irabor and Tunde
Thompson of the Guardian on stories that
were factually true under Decree 4. He
had told the Nigerian journalists then that
it did not matter whether the story
reported was true or not, if his regime did
not like it, the writer would go to jail.
4. He supervised the smuggling of 53
suitcases filled with cash througth the
MMA against the protests of General
Tunde Idiagbon and ironically, Abubakar
Atiku, the then Director General of the
Customs who later became the Vice
President and a compromised politician
himself. This smuggling of the suit cases
were supervised by his ADC, Col. Mustapha
Jokolo.
5. He jailed Fela Anikulapo -Kuti on
trumped up charges under emergency law
which prompted the sentencing judge to
confess that he was ordered to do so and
apologised to the late musician. It was
Buhari's administration that said it has
"decided to deal with this Fela problem
once and for all."
6. He convinced all the northern political
leaders against allowing the National
Identity Card program because according
to him, this would unravel the myth of
Northern population majority
7. He is an Islamic fundamentalist, the Bin
Laden of Nigeria, who told his northern
followers never to vote for anyone who
was not a muslim.
8. He is a coup plotter.
9. He has never been able to account to
Nigerians what he did with the 20 billion
Naira of the Petroleum Trust Fund of
which he was the chairman under Sani
Abacha.
9(a) He has not been able to point to any
project that he prosecuted outside the
Northern Nigeria with the so-caled trust
fund.
10. He was in full support of all the
atrocities of Sani Abacha against the
Nigerian people. There is no single record
of his criticism of Sani Abacha during
those dark days when Nigeria was on
precipice. It shows that he is a patriot of
convenience and as such unfit to lead the
country.
11. Buhari, as part of his tribalistic
practices placed President Shagari under
house arrest inside a palatia mansion in
Ikoyi while he locked up Shagari's Vice,
Alex Ekwueme in Kirikiri Prison. Shagari is
Hausa/Fulani like him while Alex Ekwueme
is an Igboman.
12. Ikemba Emeka Ojukwu, another
Igboman who returned from 13years exile
just a little over a year then was as well
locked up in Kiri Kiri Prison by
meanhearted Buhari.Up till today we are
not told what was Emeka's offence.
13. Busari Adelakun died of ulcer because
Buhari refused him to be taken out of
prison for immediate medical
attention.The then Governor of Ogun
State,Bisi Onabanjo suffered similar fate
which we were told led to his untimely
death.
14. Buhari ransacked the house of our late
sage, Obafemi Awolowo and confisticated
his International passport. Which civilized
democratic society would elect the likes of
Buhari as President,the same individual
who overthrew an elected President?
Never!
15. Plus Buhari having Sam Mbakwe in jail,
went for one of Mbakwe's wives. He
established himself again for what he
was/is letting Mbakwe receive in jailhouse
news of the death of another of
Mbakwe's two wives. One (I can't
remember his name now; Odenigbo?) also
died in jail.
16. Buhari's henchman and sponsor, CPC
governorship candidate for Kano State, is
Mohammed Abacha, the same person that
had/ran a personal killing squad, co
ordinated the killing of Kudirat Abiola &
attempted to kill Ibru; and also stashed
money in underground tanks, all less than
13 years ago, Nigerians have very short
selective memory. Shame!
17. Buhari discriminated against persons
from other ethnic groups/faiths; and that
as PTF Chairman, he employed an
overwhelming number of Fulani/Hausa/
Moslem people at the detriment of other
groups and concentrated PTF projects in
the North. If in doubt read El Rufai's
testimony where he wrote about Katsina
boys who used the money they made at
PTF to bankroll Yar'Adua's election in
1999.
18. Buhari is unforgiven. When he "took
over" by coup in 1983, even remembered
an article written a very very long time ago
by Bisi Onabanjo ('The Mallams are
coming') and a later one in which Onabanjo
wrote that people should watch out for
that "gangly officer from the north"
after Buhari gave a no holds barred
speech at some Army function where he
was reported to be very openly pro Fulani
and pro Islam to the exclusive of all else
and also talked about termination of
democratic rule. For that, Onabanjo got
one of the harshest jail terms and
treatments.
19. Buhari intolerance is worse than
Obasanjo's. When he was adopted as the
ANPP's candidate on the night of the
party's Primaries without prior warning to
the other candidates and a few of them
protested, Buhari got up and made a
speech that those people must be
disciplined. I subsequently saw him on
BBC's "hard talk" and he frightened me
and the interviewer with his archaic and
fundamentalist intolerant views. His
understanding and articulation is very
much in doubt.
20. The evil genius, IBB and his crew
similarly ran rings around Buhari. On the
10th anniversary of Abacha's demise,
Buhari said that Abacha stole nothing
from Nigeria! Despite millions of Dollars
recovered from banks around the world
and the Abacha family signing a formal
agreement to return over $1 billion dollars,
Buhari still said that Abacha's stealing
remains an unproved allegation!!!! Why?
Because Abacha set Buhari up like an
emperor and let him use oil money from
the Niger Delta to develop the North
without supervision or questions.
21. Buhari snubbed the same Nigerians he
now wants their votes by refusing to
appear before Justice Oputa Truth and
Reconciliation Panel. Despite the fact that
Buhari knew how inportant reconciliation is
to the stability of democracy. Buhari has
never apologised at anytime.
22. Buhari executed Lawal Ojuolape (30),
Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew
Owoh (26). To put it quite plainly, one of
those three – Ogedengbe - was executed
for a crime that did not carry a capital
forfeit at the time it was committed. and
At the time Ogedengbe committed the
crime it did not carry that punishment. If
we must live as civilised citizens we must
go by the rules. Article 11.2 of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights
reads: "No one shall be held guilty of any
penal offence on account of any act or
omission WHICH DID NOT CONSTITUTE
A PENAL OFFENCE, under national or
international law at the time when it was
committed. NOR SHALL A HEAVIER
PUNISHMENT BE IMPOSED THAN THE
ONE THAT WAS APPLICABLE AT THE
TIME THE PENAL OFFENCE WAS
COMMITTED. Killing people with
retroactive laws is not the civilised thing
to do - and for as long as we will have
people who refuse to see the truth only
because their heroes are inching to rule
when they have not purged themselves we
will continue to wallow in misery.
If Nigerians reward dangerous, insensitive,
dishonest, mean, cruel, partial, egoistic,
religious, fundamendalist, conscienceless
human being like MOHAMMADU BUHARI
with the presidency of Nigeria with his
kind of track record, then why do we still
wonder why Nigeria has not and will not
make it?
I can not in good conscience support
Buhari's candidacy on the above grounds.
I wish we have intelligent people who know
what democracy means. I wish we have
civilized minds. However, I am 100 percent
sure that Buhari will never again rule
Nigeria.
For the good of Nigeria, vote any other
candidate, but SAY NO TO BUHARI!!!

Thank God for her

Sealeddeal:
you are deceiving yourself. I believe you are simply overwhelmed by what he said. Buhari can never rule Nigeria.

Unibenstudent:
All this group of people must be clueless cos birds of same feather flock together!

Vivipop:
"Sunday Vanguard learnt, last night, from very competent sources, that many of the northern political opinion leaders and groups had decided that all necessary support must be given to Buhari to win the February 14, 2015 presidential election so as to return power to them" What is it with the North and their born to rule mentality? Anyways,I'm not very much surprised

montestic:
A national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Lagos State Governor, Senator Bola Tinubu has renewed his verbal attacks at President Goodluck Jonathan, describing his administration as a failure.

According to the APC chieftain, the President’s incessant excuses to Nigerians is testament to his inability to continue to preside over the affairs of the nation and urged him to resign.

Tinubu made the remarks on Friday, in Benin City, while commissioning the new six lane New Lagos Road and the Ewohimi Hospital in Esan South East of Edo State.

He said: “A nation fails because of the leadership failures, if there is a good leader at the top, a nation will not fail. Because the fish start getting rotten from the head. The poverty, insecurity, unemployment which we are witnessing today in this country is because the head has failed.

“Let them stop giving us excuses that Boko Haram is in my government, fish them out. That we have saboteurs in the military, you are admitting failure. No excuse of failure, Mr President we chose you to lead this country, resign if you cannot enough of the excuses”.

Tinubu, who described Governor Adams Oshiomhole as a man of honour and one capable of leading Nigeria, pointed out that the governor’s developmental strides in Edo state is an indication that the APC has a reservoir of credible people capable of becoming president.

“Many people like you would have fell into the temptation of naira and kobo. But you stood for the progress of Edo state. We share in common the determination to make progress, you had the opportunity to be in labour party, you had that option clearly, but you chose to be with the progressives that you know”, Tinubu added.

But how does this get me an 'A' in Chem. Engr process design here in unilorin

yuncka:

I just saw a little girl in my area moving her mattress outside because she bed wetted on it, and I cant help but remember my own experience as a bed wetter.
As a child I was scared of sleeping at night because I knew I was gonna bedwet. It wasnt easy waking up at night to change my short and change my sleeping position, sometimes sleeping on empty bunk or wooden frame board. My bed wetting skills made me convert my mattress to a world map, more detailed than google map. Sometimes I drew other objects like clouds, bomb blast, etc. At some point my mum after threatening to tie lizard/snake on my waist or forcing me to eat a wall gecko, had to buy me a rubber cover that I will put on my mattress to help trap the urine and prevent it from soaking the foam. I even stopped drinking water once it was 7pm as a measure to stop betwetting. But still..
it was when I got into boarding school that I discovered that I could eventually stop bedwetting especially with our principals campaign and public disgrace of betwetters and my own personal effort.
My worst experience as a bedwetter was when I bedwetted on an ss3 senior, I was in Js1 then. I was dreaming of wen I was so pressed and I ran to the school urinary and was so relieved to ease myself, unknown to me I was seriously unleashin a thunder storm on the senior student in the lower bunk. I chop plenty slap and lashes dat day. I tink dat was the last day I urinated.
dnt be shy, share Ur own bedwetting experience.

Rapmoney:
October, 2014 made it 8 years I successfully graduated from the university. I still vividly remember some of those unnecessary fees, dues and levies we had to pay in order to obtain that 'overrated paper' called certificate The truth is that most of these fees paid by university undergraduates are highly defrauding. I don't know if some of them still exist or if more have been added to the ones I have always known of. Here we go:

1. Accreditation fee: What the heck does this mean? Instead of sincerely apologizing to me for collecting money from me as tuition fee, when the university or department I have been admitted to lacks legality, how dare you turn around and ask me to fund the accreditation exercise? Nigerian universities would not use money collected as accreditation fees from students to purchase facilities that would aid academic and scholastic pursuits. The monies end up in private pockets. Prof. Ezekwe should rot in hell

2. Acceptance fee: Accepting or rejecting admission should be done simply through written letter or any other form that can act as a formal notification. Collecting 5k to 10k (don't know if that's the current fee) as acceptance fee is fraudulent! I often wonder why students pay to accept an admission offer

3. Students' Affairs dues: Another fraudulent fee! What does this department do? Students' affairs units in our universities are not relevant to the socio-economic issues students face on daily basis on campus. All through my days in the Ivory Tower, I was a fervent payer of Students' Affairs dues yet I fought all my problems myself what ever form they came. So what does our money do as dues? A student who couldn't pay medical bills was allowed to suffer, yet a fervent payer like myself.

4. Post UME forms and Scratch Cards: Why sell forms or cards when you know the capacity of the school will not be able to accommodate the teeming youths seeking for admission? This is fraudulent. Nigerian universities lower their cut-off marks just to attract desperate candidates. They need people to purchase cards and forms when in essence, these people won't even see or touch the school's matric gown for that academic session. Jambites, next time a friend tells you that Migwor University or University of Vrendo accepts 150 as cut-off mark, you might just be one of the steps on the ladder for that university to make serious money!

5. In all, selling of handouts, unnecessary and low-standard books to students, useless old rusted machines in faculties of Engineering, old and outdated computers in Computer Science dept. are all fraud! That's why we have been producing elect/elect Engineers that cannot connect lamp-holder, talk less of manufacturing wrist-watch

Pls, feel free to add yours.
