While I have issues with the advert and the inciting comments it contains.

I take solace in the fact judging from all antecedents, GEJ has been the most insulted president in the history of Nigeria and not because he deserves it or he is the worst president to come out of Nigeria but the rise of Social Media and the Minority factor has played a great role in fanning the insults.

My only grouse is, that is coming from a Government official

Jonathan inherited 774 LGA, today he has ceded 30 to General Shakau of Boko-haram. Jonathan inherited 23 PDP Governors but he ceded 5 to opposition APC. Jonathan inherited 4000 megawatts of electricity but we are now left with 2500 megawatts with obnoxious tariff from PHCN. Jonathan inherited 2.4 million barrel quota from OPEC but he ceded 1 million barrels to smugglers. Jonathan inherited a naira value of 155 to dollar but naira is now traded at 185. Jonathan inherited 30% unemployment but he has doubled it to 55%. Jonathan inherited positive AAA rating bond but JPMORGAN has rated our bond negative. Jonathan inherited a surviving stock market but he killed the stock market. Jonathan inherited 10% duty on tokumbo cars but he increased it to 70%. Jonathan inherited chibokgirls but he lost them to Shakau. Jonathan inherited a rag tag boko Haram he is leaving behind a sophisticated and daring BH. Jonathan inherited a booming economy but doom is what he is about to handover. To worse it off, Jonathan is promoting STEALING against our moral and societal upbringing. What then is safe under Jonathan? ?? Absolutely Nothing! !! Dear Jonathan, I can't afford more losses! !! Enough is enough! !! Changiiiiiii! !!! Changiiiiiii! !! Changiiiiiii! !!! FeBuhari is the month. Buharism is the spirit. Sai Buhari!

campaign shouldn't be about past leaders achievement.

Dear Buhari

Fayose loves you that's why he is warning you of the plot to ride on your death to power

He is also trying to protect his people because he knows that if you die in power, your brothers will seize power and relegate his people who won't be able to call on SS SE and MB for help

Take your advice to the PDP BoT Chairman, Tony Anini. He should be in the old people's home.

Honestly speaking, though i'm in support of GEJ's re-election, i condem this advert. It's obviously stating that if Buhari should win he's gonna die in office.

However, we all know that a man of 73yrs old will likely have health issues, and I.M.O should retire from holding any public office and leave the the younger generation to rule.

Come to think of it, old age is a blessing but comes with a lot of natural Challenges and difficulties such as memory loss and other factors.

If i were in Buhari's shoes, i would have retired from active politics since age 65.

but no, this old soldier wants to be president by all means! SMH

Abeg jare,let us hear word. Mandela was president of South Africa,at wat was a very tough period in their history,at the age if 74 and he lived into his 90s,there are several examples of ppl who led their countries at old age. The man obviously feels he has smth tangible to offer,so lets give him the chance

This Fayose always amaze me with his stupidity. He is just a silly irresponsible govenor distributor of chickens. Its obvious his election was rigged now he is drunk in power.
GMB will spend his years in office in good health, agile. He will not even have one week of ill health. He is still going to 90+ years.

Fayose na big time " Dogede Luna ". Its a shame that he is from my state.

The aim of his advert was to dissuade Nigerians from voting Buhari. His intention is valid and he has a right to employ any propaganda to actualise his objective even
APC has made heavy use of heavy propaganda to cripple PDP. It is a nevessary political strategy to influence public opinion.

Sadly he choose the wrong weapon which can only backfire on him and his party.

I'll proceed to analyse the likely effects of his advert.

1. The northerners will be aggrieved that he disrespected the dead especially their heroes in Muritala who was aasasinated and Yaraudua who fell I'll like anybody could. Such a slight will not go unavenged at the pooling booths.

2. If it is indeed true that Buhari is terminally Ill the Yoruba will still vote Buhari knowing that Osinbanjo will takeover the same way Jonathan did after Yaradua passed on to the great beyond.

3. If it is indeed true that Buhari is terminally Ill, many Christians all over the country will vote Buhari being aware of the possibility hat a Christian Pastor will become President

4. People who have not made up their minds which party to vote for but have lost loved ones will find this advert very distasteful and will swing their votes to Buhari out of sympathy.

5. People who currently suffer from one ailment or the other will feel slighted and will vote for Buhari out of a sense of communion.

All in all Fayose goofed big time.He did not think this through at all based on his fear of being impeached in an APC dominated Ekiti Parliament if the pendulum swings...it's not out of a love for Jonathan or Nigerians

Moral if the story " do not cut off your head to spite your nose"

We articulated......Couldn't have analyzed it better....PDP has done more damage to GEJ than buhari.....The PDP campaign of character assassination rather than 6years record is distasteful just like fayose's advert.

The North should hold Amaechi responsible, if my husband dies -
Aisha Buhari
Following the collapse of General Muhammadu Buhari in Calabar
in Cross River State.
Mrs Aisha Buhari; the wife of the APC presidential candidate
General Muhammed Buhari has called on the northern elites to
hold Gov. Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi responsible should anything
happens to her husband.
" My husband is almost 80 years old. The 72 years is an official
age to prevent an early retirement in the Nigeria Army.
The man is actually 79 years and would be 80 this year. He is not
strong to go through this campaign. They are simply torturing my
husband. They keep reassuring me that drugs can sustain him.
For Gov. Babatunde Raji Fashola to consider Jimi Agbade at 57
old, and my husband Buhari at 79 fit, is simply a conspiracy to
make me a widow before my time.
Please I'm calling on the Northern elites to plead with Gov.
Amaechi and the leadership of the APC to kindly substitute my
husband, because he's not fit to contest this election. When I was
told his credentials were not in sight, I was jubilant because I felt
that would have automatically disqualified him from the contest."

Thrash at its peak!!!

All sane Nigerians should have realised now who really are the "motor park tout". Before typing trash here:
1. Consider yourself to be a family member of Yaradua, Abacha or Muhammed, how will you fell seeing this?
2. Will you ever wish for someone at Fayose's age do this to you in future when you are in your 70s.
3. Can you be proud of your father if your dad happens to be involved in this reckless act.
4. Put yourself in Buhari's shoe, what would you have done?
5. Consider yourself to be a northerner, will you be happy with this even if you are a supporter GEJ.
6. Is this advisable in a country of ethnic and tribal differences? can't it lead to anarchy?
I won't still be dissapointed if some pple come here and type nonsense because Abacha's son is still supporting GEJ despite this outrageous assault on the entire abacha family. I 'm a yoruba boy but Fayose is a disgrace to the yoruba nation.

u were making sense till u got to number 5. who cares abt what the northerners want ?

Re: Campaigns Shouldn’t Be About Dead Leaders –buhari by Diligence: 8:51am On Jan 20, 2015

From Yinka Odumakin:

Nigeria is a nation that is founded on the foundation of lies.
Foundation of lies? Why do you say that?
It is because we pretend a lot. If we have a patriotic political class, what Pastor Bakare is saying is what we should have done. All these fight that is going on now, there are two major issues at stake. One, all the oil blocs are due for renewal this year. Whoever gets power will be the one to allocate the oil blocs and will determine the economy of this country for the next 32 years. Two, census is due for next year 2016. Those who are in charge of census now are talking about the fact that they are going to do digital survey, they are going to use the best technology that will give the actual result throughout the country. There are people who have held this country to ransom over the years on the basis of false population census because everything in this country is tied around population and the rest. These two things, census and allocation of oil blocs has made the election a do or die affair In the midst of ‘We want our power back’ from the North and ‘We must have our full term’ by the South. I was a delegate at the National Conference. When you look at 2009 to 2012, in those four years, the revenue accruing to the Federation Account of this country, average of 68 per cent of the total comes from the South South, 23 per cent from the South-West, and seven per cent from South East. North Central zero per cent, North East 0.0 per cent, North 0.00 per cent. Now when it now comes to distribution; local government funds alone, the three northern zones that put in zero per cent to the federal allocation take 54 per cent, the three zones that put in 100 per cent take 46 per cent.
And what are the statistics they use in sharing? Population. That is why when we get to the Conference, some northern delegates were talking about 80-20 sharing formula. They even used it to design their agbada. The whole question is: If you go to election in the midst of all these, you know what you are going for and that is the danger that Pastor Bakare is warning about.
But some people have also accused Pastor Bakare of clamouring for Jonathan’s continued stay in office, through his speech…
(…Cuts in) It is surprising that the APC said he is working for tenure elongation for Jonathan. When he gave the address the other day, about six pages was used to criticise the Jonathan administration. He even accused the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) of bias for saying Nigerians should pray against APC. If APC should come into power in this country, people should kiss freedom of speech bye, because, they take delight in criticising people. But anything against them, they will muzzle the press and do all sorts of vile things.

Indeed, people will always perish because of ignorance or crass stupidity...

Fellow Nigerians, as we have just few days to Our elections, below are some vital things we must consider before casting our vote:

1.Buhari killed Ben Ogedengbe by a death penalty for a crime that didn't carry death penalty when he committed it.

2.Buhari doesn't attend the Federal Council meetings yet collects his allowances. Mr. Integrity indeed.

3.Buhari canceled former Governor Jakande's metroline and forfeited the $50 million paid for it by the then Lagos State Government.

4.Buhari used violence to stop the September 1985 National Conference of the National AssociatIon of Nigeria Students.

5.Buhari jailed Tai Solarin and denied him his asthma drugs simply because he campaigned against military rule and for democracy.

6.Buhari Jailed Nduka Irabor and Tunde Thompson for writing a truthful report which embarrassed his Government.

7.Buhari raided respected Papa Awolowo's house and seized his passport so he couldn't travel out of the country.Was he also corrupt?

8.Buhari threw former Vice President Alex Ekweme in jail even though it was proven that Ekweme never stole any money.

9.He jailed honest and respected Pa Adekunle Ajasin.

10.He jailed Fela Kuti in I984 for singing against the dictatorial tendencies of his Military Government.

11.Doctors, remember that Buhari banned the Nigeria medical Association (NMA).

12.Buhari stopped Ooni of Ife for traveling abroad simply because he visited the holy land of Israel in 1984.

13.He broke up Press Conference of ASSU in 1984 and detained four of their executives.

14.He jailed Beko Ransome Kuti who only demanded for the release of his brother.

Nigerians must be careful what We wish for! Change for what!

Something worse?

Keep sharing to keep Nigeria democratic and free from oppression. Buhari will be worse off.

God bless Nigeria...
