Finally, General Azazi Is Vindicated: Boko Haram
Political Tool Of PDP.

BuddhaPalm:


While I would say Uncle Joe is toying with a keg of gunpowder. It's far too easy to, safely, sit behind a keyboard and criticize Jega.

Obama, himself, has a long list of unconstitutional actions. It's just the nature of 'absolute' power.

Even, postponement is legal.

intergral:
which help did we seek from them? Remember that the same goodluck told UN and AU that bokoharam is a small issue he can tackle. So don't go about chanting what you don't know.

Change2015:


Don't be stup1d. The BBC is not the British government and why should they help us at all, are we not an independent nation? All the years boko haram has raged freely has it concerned Jonathan? One day after the Nyanya bombing, was he not dancing on stage campaigning for votes? When Bama was destroyed, did he speak, instead he was sending condolences to France? The hypocrisy and kleptocracy of the pdp will come to an end next month. Nothing can save this wretched government from the peoples judgement.

Get your facts right US & others are ready to fight the insurgents but realized that your military has been infiltrated by the insurgents thereby can't risk sharing of intelligent with Nigeria military that's why they back out.

This election postponement is most embarrassing and a testament that Preofessor Attahiru Jega is an incompetent and clueless dude just like the President. This is the first time since we returned to democracy that the INEC Boss will openly take orders from the NSA, the Military and members of pro-PDP as regards election scheduling and rescheduling. Since when has the Military activities determines elections scheduling? The Electoral Act and the Constitution did not say NSA, Military and INEC should determine election date. Even if there is crises in a part of the country, Section 26(1) of the Electoral Act 2010 (amended) permit INEC to hold election in the peaceful area and reschedule for the trouble zone at a convenient date. Why can't Jega invoke this section and exclude Gombe, Borno, Adamawa and Yobe from Feb 14 and Feb 28 poll until March 28 and Aprill 11 respectively? Since when do we need the Military for election? What is the Statutory duties of the Police, the NSCDC, and by extension the DSS with respect to internal security? If personnels are not enough then why not bring in other paramilitary to assist? Must it be the Military? Was the Military used in 2003, 2007 and 2011 election? Militarisation started from Edo 2012,then Ondo(2012), Anambra(2011), Osun and Ekiti(2014) Gubernatorial contests. When did the Military become statutory responsible for internal security? The letter of the Chief of Defense State that was communicated to Jega through NSA Sambo Dasuki is treachery and unfortunate. Jega's announcement yesternight only confirmed that he doesn't know what he is doing. This is a shame, our democracy has been raped.

reezee:

if u read the full text of jega's speech you wouldn't be blaming jega one bit
Do you expect jega to provide security for inec officials when all then security agencies have backed out
and when inec officials are finally killed you will be the one that will be blaming jega for not postponing the election

So? Bbc abi US should face front. They won't help fight boko haram, blocked channels through which Nigeria can acquire more arms to fight insurgents yet they want to decide what happens in Nigeria.

We have decided to postpone election, US and BBc should mind their business... Rubbish.

My brother, there is no reason the Okrikans and entire Riverine to remain with the clueless one. When they loot, they don't know whether Sambo is Fulani or Jonathan is Ijaw. They are united in their theft or as my friend will say "thiefing". For 5 years the whole of Okrika and riverine has benefitted absolutely nothing from the administration except the insignificant number of government employees called "militants". We need Change my brother. We have suffered enough

seankenny01:
@barcanista I dont quite agree with you saying jega is a clueless and incompetent. Did you see the press conference or your judgement was based on hearsay?
I am not in support of any election posponement and am sure Jega is neither in support; but any sane person would yield to d pressure from the stakeholders (political parties, security chiefs, pressure groups e.t.c) of this electioneering process.
I would like to make it clear to you that Jega never succumbed to any order from the service chiefs, rather INEC acted on d advise of all d stakeholders which d service chiefs are also part of.
Though I believe this postponement is a hand work of a some selfish Nigerians; I can assure you that the outcome of this decision will come out to be a blessing to the country which will shock the enemies of our nation.
God bless our Country...

SomebodyLovesMe:
GEJ has had 6 years of bad decisions. This is by far his worst decision, because it will backfire in ways that he could never have imagined. The world is watching very closely. He cannot hide.

Ibime:


It's a shame. Jonathan has no one to blame. He had the most goodwill of any President in Nigeria's history when he started but like I said when he started, this is the worst Ijaw man to represent us given his history of underperformance and looting in Bayelsa.
