People still don't know the difference between politics and social responsibilities and obligations. That's why Buhari can't be said to be a statesman like Gowon or Shonenkan. The blind APC governors and their new bride, ex-speaker Tambuwal would always be absent for national meetings aimed at moving the country forward, later they be shouting militarization of elections. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Only fools do the same thing same way and expect different results. We had an uproar few months ago when boko haram overran chibok and a jamboree meeting of council of states was held, nigerians believed the meeting was going to give out a marshal plan on how to get back the girls but unfortunately the girls are still with shekau 7months after theur stupid talk show and shekau has taken more territories than 7months ago. Why is the governemt of jonaTAN always reactive and never proactive? It will be an insult to intelligence and wisdom to have this man lead or partake in a committee or gathering of wise people. So glad the governors and other reasonable people in the APC didn't attend this stupid talkshow. If the President and PDP want the end of shekau they know what to do, I guess alimodu sheriff no dey the meeting? If he is not then the meeting no get meaning. 15 Likes 1 Share |

Of what use would it be wasting time to register your dignified presence in a meeting that is doomed to produce no tangible result? The APC governors and the Generals have a good bullshit detector, and any meeting with GEJ is one. 8 Likes |

SkySpirit:Apc is just showing nigerians how dear to them is the affairs of this nation. All i see is a bunch of people gathered together with the common goal of kicking pdp out of the presidency in order to take over power, and dont care how they achieve this. To them the end justifies the means. Paint the government black, frustrate their plan at success, hinder growth and development, cause chaos and insecurity, turn the people against the government. And then get into power as the messiah. 5 Likes |
