The election was rigged. North didn't vote for GEJ.

Get my point I am
Not saying vote Buhari and I sware that I will never vote for Buhari but my point is that the man who neglected us even when we supported him does not deserve our vote.
We need our own man to contest and we should all support him.

If you vote anyone else you will split Jonathan vote and end up with Buhari

The pragmatic choice is to stick with Jonathan till 2019
bro, u get sense.op i understand how u feel,but no need dividing Gej's votes and end up having a blood thirty man as president.GEJ is our best bet now.

Get of my face. You are ruined with sentiment. My point is very clear and only people who refuse to see reasons type rubbish. Jonathan failed Igbos and that is very easy to see and my opinion is that he does not deserve our vote.
I am not saying vote Buhari and I personal will not vote him. I am saying that Igbo should field a candidate and that Ndi should give such a candidate massive support not minding if he fails or wins.

LOL @ yours in bold:

Thats their foolish mentality; they'd rather cut off their noses to spite their face.
They want the presidency but won't join national parties (PDP or APC) but remain in their largely regional party APGA promoting tribal politics; yet they expect other tribes to vote for their candidates after they finished insulting and abusing them.

Restructure the country yet they want Biafra; while they are the biggest beneficiaries of One Nigeria. LOL - just contradicting themselves.

Meanwhile, see them being wooed by GEJ for votes, LOL. cheesy

Reading posts like this makes me wonder how old you were when Buhari was at PTF. PTF reconstructed Enugu-Onitsha and Enugu to Port Harcourt express way. He also tarred many township roads in Enugu and Benin-city then. There was drugs at UNTH. Dispensed for free to people. PTF made use of Nigerian professionals. For the first time in years, Engineers, Quantity surveyors, Architects had jobs without begging or bribing for contracts. All needed ws to register with PTF and when jobs come you bid and get selected if you qualify. Professor Dora Akunyili of Blessed memory worked with GMB at the time. There was corruption when he took over as President. Shagari folded his arms and politicians were looting the country dry. Did he err in some of his decisions? Of course! But under PTF Buhari achieved a lot in terms of putting infrastructure in place in the country.
Collynzo9:
So who should Igbos vote for, Buhari?
Talking about roads, how many did Buhari build or maintain in the east as head of state and as PTF chairman under Abacha? 0? 1? How many?
He overthrew President Shagari who actually built roads in the east, he over threw some of our best governors of all time like Sam Mbakwe - the inner roads he built in Owerri and Aba are still there for all to see, he had more to achieve but Buhari cut short his tenure.
What about Jim Nowobodo who achieved so much for Enugu, Anambra and Ebonyi and still had more in stock? Buhari ousted them all.

What did he do with power after that? He sheepishly handed it to IBB.

Oboy, thank you for debunking their lies; its a pity their hatred will never allow them see the truth.

First let me state that i am Igbo and I am not for Buhari neither do I support the Apc party but the truth must be told and the truth is that Jonathan does not deserve the Igbo mans vote.
Yes the northern Nigeria has been the one kicking against Jonathan yet the president has done much for them in term of infrastructural development. The first railway that was renovated moved from Lagos to Kano and even the proposed centenary city is to built in Abuja. Ultramodern railway line has all been built across the north yet the same north still kick against Jonathan.
Benin Ore express is in a vey good condition that last time that I travelled to Lagos. Lagos Ibadon express way has all been delivered yet majority of the westerners want Jonathan out.
What have we the Igbos got from the Jonathan since the beginning of Jonathans administration? The Igbos have got absolutely nothing. We seem to be the last to be remembered in terms of infrastructure development. All eastern federal roads are bad. From Aba to Akwaibom expressway to Phc to Enugu expressway is seen an example of a neglected people.railway lines has started working in the north and western Nigeria but the south east is still dormant.
The Igbos should stop working with sentiment.it is time we vote for those who will take us for who we really are.we support others but we are hardly supported and yet we are yet to learn.
My opinion is that Jonathan failed us and he does not deserve our vote.

Note: My own opinion.. no trespassing
Opinion noted. But I am convinced beyond reasonable doubt that Buhari does not have the qualities of a good leader. People talk about how he enforced discipline as a military head of state but they also forget that he was able to do that because he had men with guns. Buhari does not believe in democracy. This is a man that threatened the whole nation just because he failed election. People where slaughtered with matchette just because Buhari lost election. The guy does not fit to be the president of this country and he is simply anti-democratic.
This country need a new leader that will come from the best performing governors( eg Fashola, Tinubu, Rochas, kwakwanso). Buhari is not an option at all but unfortunately the Yorubas want him. We will still complain if Buhari wins.
I rather vote the bone of my grandmother than vote Buhari. He is better as a military head of state.

Jonathan has failed us really but we will b voting him because we have hope that he will use this last four years to do right by us. We have no other option but to vote gej bcus we know dat no hausa or yoruba man will give d igbos anything but more misery.

Even if Buhari wants only a term of 1 day, don't give him the opportunity because;

1)It's most likely a lie

2)the country is still suffering from the damage caused by the last time he spent 20 months. Lagos still has no metro line, thaks to the animal in human skin.

We don't need Buhari and Jonathan. We need men like Rochas, solivan chime, Fashola, Tinubu, Akpabio and Kwakwanso. These men has shown that with the scarce resources available to them from the federal allocation they could affect a positive change. We can pick one of these men. Jonathan is a flop and Buhari is not qualified and like I said earlier I rather vote a dead dog than vote Buhari.

honestly, sometimes i wish that APC is not the return-power-to-the-north-by-all-means-necessary party
imagine a buhari presidency in 2015!
i wish they picked an educated technocrat nigerian from anywhere.
we have no other choice than to stick to jonathan for 4 more years.
how did nigeria become this bipolar?
