He's afraid of winning Obama after Osama's death

US tycoon Donald Trump says he will not run for the US presidency in 2012, declaring he is not ready to leave the private sector.

On Monday, he said he could win but "business is my greatest passion".

In recent months, the real estate mogul and reality television star had loudly questioned whether President Barack Obama was born in the US.

The media attention that gained and his already high name recognition boosted him to the top tier of candidates.

In a statement on Monday, Mr Trump said that through his "unofficial" campaigning, he had come to realise that "running for public office cannot be done half heartedly".

Mr Trump, who hosts the reality television programme Celebrity Apprentice, made his announcement on Monday as the NBC television network rolled out its line-up of forthcoming shows.

Prior to the announcement, NBC said it would bring back the programme with a different host if Mr Trump ran for president.

The New York businessman had been flirting with a presidential bid for months, even travelling to early primary states like New Hampshire.

Last month, Mr Trump demanded that Mr Obama release copies of his birth certificate, adding fuel to rumours among certain groups that the president was not born in the US.

The president ultimately released the certificate, and Mr Trump took credit for forcing Mr Obama's hand.

Had he run, Mr Trump would have had to make significant disclosures about his financial interests and undergo scrutiny of his business activities, and analysts had suggested that prospect could dissuade a candidacy.

And Mr Trump's tumultuous personal life - played out in past decades across the pages of New York's tabloid newspapers - his ideological inconsistency, his reputation as a showman and his lack of political experience could have proven problematic for serious-minded and doctrinaire Republican primary voters, correspondents say.

Mr Trump's news comes only days after Mike Huckabee, a Republican and former governor of the US state of Arkansas, announced he would not seek the Republican nomination for the presidency.

Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Texas Congressman Ron Paul both announced their intention to run last week.

Other potential Republican 2012 candidates include former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, former Utah Governor and US ambassador to China Jon Huntsman and former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty.

Of those, only Mr Romney and Mr Pawlenty have taken the first official step towards a candidacy, by forming exploratory committees to test the waters and begin raising money.

This is the bomb, me go vote for Gen Buhari/Pst Bakare. The perfect combination in terms of religion, anti-corruption, ethnicity, infrastructure and economic emancipation. Sorry GEJ, i just changed my mind.

As a back-up plan to the current alliance talks between the opposition parties, the presidential flagbearer of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, is seriously considering picking Pastor Tunde Bakare as his running mate in the April elections.

The is even as the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) continues with its talks with CPC today with the possibility of reaching an agreement and signing an MoU ahead of the elections. The All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) is also a party to the talks.

Although Buhari is said to be strongly pursuing an alliance with ACN with him as the presidential candidate, he is said to be uncomfortable with the idea of a Muslim-Muslim ticket should Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu be presented by ACN as its candidate.

The arrangement being worked upon, THISDAY learnt, is for the ANPP chairman, Chief Ogbonnaya Onu, to be the chairman of the alliance, while the CPC will produce the presidential candidate and ACN the vice-presidential candidate.

“Although Nigerians have voted for a Muslim-Muslim ticket before (MKO Abiola and Babagana Kingibe), Buhari has the disadvantage of being portrayed as a religious extremist so it would be a hard sell, especially with the religious crises up North,” a source familiar with the calculations told THISDAY last night.

However, should Tinubu not be on the ticket, that could be a disincentive to the inner circle of the ACN.

Several political analysts believe that without the alliance with ACN, Buhari’s presidential ambition may not be realisable. Herein lies the dilemma.

The Bakare option is said to be very appealing to the Buhari inner circle as Plan B in the event that the alliance talks do not come to fruition.

Bakare, the Senior Pastor of the Latter Rain Assembly, is an activist who convened the Save Nigeria Group (SNG) which campaigned vigorously to break the political logjam created by the long absence of the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua from the country early last year.

However, the pastor told THISDAY on phone last night that he was not yet aware of the plan.

“I will not react to speculations. We have had interactions with many political parties. When they (CPC) reach out to me, I will let you know,” he said.

A source close to the Buhari camp told THISDAY yesterday that the CPC presidential candidate will soon send emissaries to ask Bakare to consider an offer to contest with him.

The source said Buhari's new move came on the heels of the failure of CPC and ACN to reach agreement on which platform to present candidates for the elections.

The calculations being put forward by the choice of Bakare is that the pastor as an influential personality within the Christian fold will help immensely to boost the chances of Buhari in garnering more votes in the South, which has been a major concern of the former head of state.

Negotiations between the two opposition political parties were last Friday suspended over disagreement on which platform to present the presidential candidate.

A member of the negotiating team told THISDAY shortly after the breakdown of talks that the leadership of ACN wanted Buhari to contest on the platform of ACN.

According to him, ACN's position did not go down well with the CPC team led by former speaker of the House of Representatives, Alhaji Bello Masari, which eventually led to suspension of talks.

However, as it turned out, both parties were not ready to sacrifice their party identities for the alliance to sail through and as such the parties decided to call back their representatives at the talks for consultations.

"The alliance talks were deadlocked because ACN is insisting that Buhari accepts to run for the presidency on its platform. This insistence was not acceptable to the CPC and the alliance negotiation was suspended till further notice," he said.

ACN's National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Muhammed, had said at a recent function at the party's headquarters in Abuja that the party is not in a hurry to go into any alliance that would make it lose its core values.

He said though ACN is under considerable pressure to join forces with other progressive parties in a bid to forge a formidable team that can upstage the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the general election, it will not do so at the expense of its party ideology.

In the meantime, the tripartite talks among the opposition parties continue with a view to post-election merger since, by law, a merger is no longer possible before the April polls because of the six-month requirement.

Should the alliance talks succeed, however, the next challenge would be to manage the expectations of Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau and Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, both of whom have emerged as the presidential candidates of ANPP and ACN respectively.

“At this stage, the Northern leaders may have to step in as Shekarau still does not see eye-to-eye with Buhari and Ribadu sees himself as a candidate of change,” a source involved in the negotiations said. “Ribadu needs to be persuaded that he can play a strong role in the government if the alliance wins the election.”

An ACN governor told THISDAY: “If in the UK, the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats who are at opposite ends of ideological spectrum can form government, there is nothing wrong with CPC and ACN forming an alliance in Nigeria.”

In Ilorin at the weekend, Muhammed said the ongoing talks aimed at forming a broad-based alliance would brighten the chances of defeating PDP at the forthcoming polls.

Muhammed told journalists that the alliance has the capacity to lead to victory in April.

He said there was no doubt that if the alliance works as expected, it would deny the PDP chance of returning to power for the first time ever.

According to him, the alliance becomes imperative in view of the lack of confidence the people have in the PDP governments at all levels.

"I want to tell you that the biggest thing PDP is afraid of is the imminent alliance of ACN, CPC, and ANPP. With the alliance, PDP will be squarely defeated at the poll because many people, those who are not even politicians are encouraging this alliance because they said they are tired of the PDP government,” he said.

Muhammed said the ACN was being prevailed upon by the people to go into alliance with other major opposition parties to ensure an end is brought to PDP government.

He said the influence of ACN would allow the alliance to sweep the South-west while those of both the ANPP and CPC will clear the entire votes in the North-east and North-west zones, thereby giving them an edge over the PDP.

Muhammed added that they envisage a situation where the party would lead in most of the North-central states and win some of the states of the South-south and South-east zones.

Talking about what he said, there are alot of things in the scriptures that cannot be taken literary

Mark 4:34 - But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

Jesus explained all parables and mysteries to his disciples and we are one!

AMEN!!!, my testimony i will share. Thanks

Pastor Faith

Pastor, Please i need God's grace to help me fulfill his purpose for my life. Thanks

Of course though u will be able to venture to different sectors with IT skills esp in the oil & gas industry. I started with core IT and have supported sub-surface/GIS, production, telecoms in oil & gas industry. Good luck!

Okay if is what you mean by that go for the latter (certification program for the GIS as well as a  2 year program) cos you will acquire both IT and GIS experience but bear in mind that you will be taught mainly IT in GIS classes with geography, geophysics or geo-science

You have alot more work to do my brother. May the LORD open your understanding (all of us need it).

ECCLESIASTES 8: 5-7 Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment.

Let me ask you this first, Do you actually believe, with your understanding of the WHOLE BIBLE, that the Lord Jesus Christ does not know the day or the hour?

I dont know what you mean the [second bolded], but i know that the whole bible, weather or not it is painted in red (Jesus' word, is God's word that there is no order of priority (old or new testament).

Sir, I'm neither a pastor nor a teacher but a christian, however is not what i think Jesus knows (though i have his mind) but what he said. In law court one is judged by what he said or did with intent than his conscious. By the way have you read the article?

Don't tell me this is true!

He's not the long awaited messiah but he's preferred to Atiku

As concerning your statement in the bolded,

Acts 1:7 says:
And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in His own power.

But, no wahala, I understand your point.


God revealed in advance the exact day when Nineveh would be destroyed through judgment:

"And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown."
Jonah 3:4 (KJV)

God gave advance notice of exactly when Sodom and Gomorrah would be destroyed so that Lot's family was able to escape just before destruction came:

"And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city."
Genesis 19:15 (KJV)

God gave advance notice of exactly what day He would bring each plague upon Egypt:

"Behold, to morrow about this time I will cause it to rain a very grievous hail, such as hath not been in Egypt since the foundation thereof even until now."
Exodus 9:18 (KJV)


God gave Noah the exact date of the flood. There is no question about this. In Genesis 7:4, God gave Noah and the people of that day the exact date of the flood. God said:

For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

The Bible tells us in Matthew 24:37-39 that the coming of God will be as it was in the days of Noah. What were the people doing then? God says in Matthew 24:38:

, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

In other words, the people did not change a thing. They continued to conduct their lives as business as usual.



Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

Spiritually speaking, a prophet is anyone who declares the Word of God. An individual believer therefore fulfills the role of a prophet as we share the Gospel with other people.

I love your reasoning but consider this “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father" -Matthew 24:36,Mark 13:32
In analysing the scripture Jesus word is more in priority

Please go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Coming_of_Christ and see unfulfilled religious prophecies, yours will be added in the list soon!

Well researchers seem to have a contrary opinion

http://www.sixwise.com/Newsletters/2008/July/16/Are-Girls-or-Boys-More-Difficult-to-Raise.htm

Maybe 9ja girls are just different

because girls tend to be more wary and compliant, they're also more likely to be insecure than boys ,  and may need an extra push to try out new things. And because girls are so in-tune with communication, when they reach their pre-teen and teenage years, you can expect much more drama. Girls, for instance, may talk back more than boys, and they may [b]experience harsher arguments [/b]with friends or emotional bullying at school.

Though this is not well researched piece cos it's centered on child education but ignored the extra moral instruction and care given to a girl, I still agree the bold words
