[b]After viewing the comments above, I can't but shudder for this country. Atimes, I wonder why our YORUBA BROTHERS and stupidity are like Banana and groundnut. Why do you guys like promoting Buhari and Tinubu as saviours of this country? People who are more interested in wresting powers from PDP rather than discuss how to form a unity government where the welfare of the masses who elected them should come first. In a sane country, Buhari should be an elder statesman now, giving advices to young politicians on how to run this country best.

Before Yall Hausa Malus and Yoruba bigots start shuting "Igbo Man this, or Igbo man that", try first of all to see reason in Peter Obi's ideas. Personally, I am an Igbo man from Anambra but that will not deter me from saying the truth devoid of sentiments. Yall keep on Comparing Mandela's age to Buhari's Age. Are you people stuppid? Are you aware that Mandela resorted to stay in prison rather than preach violence in the liberation cause of his people? But this was the same Buhari I watched in a clear video yesterday shouting "Halaka" in his election campaign. Immediately after the election, what happened? Even if you lost an election and it was prolly rigged, why not take your case to the courts? Why not resort to world court for justice? Why incite people to maim others because of ordinary presidency of a country and not even the world or the universe?

Yorubba People! Yorubba People!! Yorubba People!!! How many timess did I call you? This was the same way Ojukwu liberated Awolowo from prison and told him to declare Oduduwa republic. But the Young Man chickened out because of their ever eternal slave mentality!

Same way Babangida truncated Abiola's ambition while installing anarchy in this country in the person of Abacha.

NDI YORUBA, EMERE UNU OGWU? GINI MERE UNU JI DI NZUZU NKE UKWU? NDI HAUSA ERIRI UNU ERI?

Personally, I know Jonathan did not perform well as expected. But truth be told, THIS YOUNG MAN TRIED! Till I see a viable alternative to Jonathan, He will always have my vote or I void it entirely. A vote for Buhari is a vote of insensitivity to the plight of this nation. How can I vote a senile man like that when we have the likes of Fashola, Akpabio, Sullivan Chime, Peter Obi and other vibrant politicians in this country?

BUHARI IS NOT COMING TO RULE NIGERIA! THIS MAN IS COMING TO CAUSE PROBLEMS AND TROUBLES. YOU YORUBA folks should not be suprised when this Northern Cabals kill Osinbajo and elect an Hausa VP. Ndi Yoruba, you people should not work hard ok? Continue depending on government money to survive. While your so called enemies from the other side of the Niger continue to thrive in Business and industry.

Continue waiting for a government that will shut Igbo businesses like your brother Obasanjo did so that few Hausa like Dangote will gain immensely. Continue ok?

BUT COME 2015, JONATHAN IS GOING BACK TO ASO ROCK. BUHARI WILL LOOSES AGAIN! [/b]



All these would have made a lot of sense if it was not filled with half truths and unsubstantiated accusations and heavily laced with tribal bigotry.

You are free to vote who ever you think can move the country forward but you should try not abuse the sensibilities of those who would also like to vote for your candidate.

The true economist has spoken unlike the other dictator who says he will stabilize the price of oil in the global arena, sponsor the killing of the youth who assumed to be the leaders of tomorrow just because he lost in 2011 and promise that baboon and dog will suck in blood if he looses again
u are just a misinformed miscreant. GMB granted an interview in hausa to bbc hausa and mentioned the adage" kare jini, biri jini" which when directly translated using the exact words he used in hausa it means "dog blood, monkey blood" wht it simply means in hausa is a fierce competition. because each time a dog and a monkey meat its always a fierce battle between them. when it comes to adage translation u don't have to use the exact words from the spoken language into the translated language but an equivalent of the meaning of the adage being translated.

Peter Obi is correct. Buhari is already senile and this is why he claimed the military board has his certificates. He thinks that we are going to believe his fabricated storyline.

Vote GEJ until Buhari becomes younger! Buhari can't steal my youth and then steal my adult years too.
Low sense of thinking/reasoning from a foolish dog like you.

peter obi should shut up his mouth. Was it not the same pdp dat gave Elechi the mandate 2 rule ebonyi state at almost 100yrs of age? Elechi nd buhari, who is older?
and elechi never show good examp£es as a good leader and so therefore buhari will never show good example as an old man..
He should just relax and enjoyed the 45.5million the fool nigerian contributed to compensate him...
What else does he want wen we heard rumour that he had terminal disease..

i wish him well that s why i want him to stay away frm politics and help jonathan fight bokoharam if he has the solution..
Some nigerians claimed to be wise and more wiser than other african tribes but they re easy to be gullible.
why

and why?

You tried but you failed to understand that for a Sinner can be saint at the same time, for APC to accomplished their Vision and Objective, they need one ingredient and that is power of Presidency. it will not be possible to accomplished their Vision for this country if they dont get the President position, you can say there are other position that can hold, yes there are but, there is need to cure the headache thereafter we can cure the hunger of the stomach

The arab spring revolution started from Tunisia.

Tunisia sent a thiefing president on exile through the Arab spring revolution and has afterwards elected an 88 years old man, who was sworn in last week .

A sound mind with a strong political will and integrity is way way more important than the mumbojumbo theory he is bringing forth.

i have posted this before, To be frank and sincere GEJ has not performed maximally well, but not a total failure. But my concerned is, if Nigeria is talking of Change in this 21st century, then not Buhari. Ask me why if you cares. stamping out corruption is not enough to move a nation forward but it's a part of it. Buhari does not fit into this modern computer age. Nigeria is too sophisticated interns of intellectual for an Old man like Bohari. Buhari is only vast when it comes to Sharia and Islam and Nigeria as a circular Nation is not good for a man like him to govern. Technologically, Buhari will take us back to stone age, i learnt that he just open facebook and tweeter account just a month ago, and am not sure he has computer set. Not because he cannot afford it but, it will be of no use to him.(old school). Fellow Nigerian, we need leaders with visions, leaders that can give selfless service. A man cannot give what he don't have, Buhari don't have vision. We need people like Fashola, Oshiomole, Ribadu, Tambuwa, akpabio ETC. if they are not available for now let make do of GEJ at least for the next 4 years. half bread is better than none.

Apc e-dogs, buhari rule una papa, he still wan rule una. That's slave mentality. No amount of this will stop jonathan from winning. I can't wait to see grandpa of 72 years weep like a bush baby come Feb. Buhari is a serial failure destined by God to fail for the thousands of innocent blood on his head. His being alive today is to go through humiliation. In a free contest, buhari cannot win Me,Yes! Yes buhari can't win. Any politician will secure his first political victory having buhari as opponent. Is that bad!, he will only try just as failures shouting he had 12 million votes with CPC because all forces are against him.

bushdoc9919:
Age nor tribe should not be the critieria for choosing a leader.

Rather, let us judge each candidate by his ideas for the nation.

And based on the ideas we see right now.....I would not vote for PDP or APC because neither of the parties have any idea about how to get us off oil, or indeed how to respond to the crash in oil prices, how to improve healthcare and education, and how to deal with Boko Haram...especially in the area of improving the Army's unconventional warfare capability.

Let us have politics of ideas and ideals....not politics of bitterness,bigotry, lies, and ageism.
If age should not be used as a yardstick or factor to judge competence, then why do we have retirement age in the civil service and the workforce as a whole? Old age and sense can only review the past but cannot fathom/comprehend the present or predict the future

When u started I taught this is reasonable being in his rightful mind but to my surprise it turn out to be the other side now I could see that some pple could not see beyond their nose
Wht does age needs to do in leadership if "YES" we need to follow age then Jonathan too should not be in power by now or is he a "YOUTH" he is 57yrs and have u 4gotten that we have some that rule us here in Nigeria @ the age of 30 so do u now see that even all of them have flaunted our right?
But @ this juncture we need strong fellow,who is in his rightful mind, someone who fearless, one who can stand and defend and deliver his pple in the days of trouble so it is clear that d incumbent president lacks that confident to fight even when all is obviously observed by all the populace so that is what really doesn't want and due to his weak decision making pple will change him,due to his. Inability to sanction the corrupt pple around him pple will change him ,because life of our youth means nothing to him we will change him I still remains my humble self OLAIDE721

My friend Nigerian future is already rigged. Any change of administration at this critical period in global geo political and economic realignment will swallow Nigeria. You need to stay on top of the economic policy trend already on the ground. A new government will take at least a year to get a handle on its policies. That transitional gap will do Nigeria in. I understand if this is a little complex for you to grasp.
