INEC POSTPONEMENT OF ELECTION; THE
IMPLICATIONS?
PDP celebrating election postponement as victory.
Tells you all you need to know about the direction of this election
What difference can 6 weeks make?
Will it return our 30 trillion naira?
Will it return our 6.8 trillion naira?
Will it build our refineries?
Will it provide our promised national carrier?
Will it bring back our girls?
Will it bring back our youths? murdered by Abba Moro?
Will it sanitize NNPC?
Will it end boko haram terrorism?
Will it reduce the poverty rate?
Will it add the year our children lost in the universities?
Will it give us purposeful leadership?
Will it restore the dying naira?
Will it restore the credibility of our president in the international community.
Be patient folks, we will definitely vote out cluelessness, incompetence and corruption
Everyday for the thief, one day for the owner, the owner's day is here.
Even,if the election is eventually postponed;
Nigerians have decided to vote Buhari/Osinbajo as president; Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The election is no longer between PDP & APC but between Nigerians and PDP. 
Please all, stay the course, no shaking. Spread the word!!!

Why is Gej so scared like this. Complete laurent Gbagbo in the making like someone said earlier. Gej will go down the memory lane as the first sitting president to lose gallantly in election. Mr president, do the unthinkable, even go to the mass, gather all the prophet together. Ur failure is already written and ur result will be printed out.

Take this from me...

At this point, GEJ is no longer in control.

"They" are making him so paranoid as to hand over control to them to maintain the status quo.

One can only hear the voice of Jonathan, but the worry should be the invisible and invicible hands of "Essau"

Did the gun men tell you that they were sent by PDP or GEJ ? Let the matter be investigated.

BTW, even if GEJ was behind it, is he the first to do so? Obasanjo does so. I remeber Tinubu using thugs and area boys to seize Tell News sometime ago.

Has Fashola not also used policemen to disperse a peaceful protest? How? Let me remind you that when the Lekki toll gates were built and the residents led a peaeful protest, Fashola sent policemen to beat up innocent people. One person was shot dead.

Now when GEJ wants to use gun men, people are shouting. You guys did not say anything when OBJ sent policemen to chase out 1004 residents. Some people even loSt their lives. So what are we saying?

My major problem is those people behind Buhari. The likes of Tinubu and Amaechi are too smart for GMB to handle.

What kind of logic is this? The criminal act of B is acceptable because A also did it? Since when do two wrongs make a right? I hope you realise you are on the receiving end of whoever did it, so be wise.

Like actions in Hollywood blockbusters, gunmen, which number could not be easily ascertained, on Friday morning raided a printing press in Shomolu area of Lagos State, carting away copies of a book on the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Our correspondent gathered that the gunmen harassed the printers and took away copies of the book, entitled Two-Faced Jonathan: 100 Reasons Why Jonathan Must Go, authored by Blessing Agbomhere.

Workers in the printing press who were too  frightened, could not ask questions or confront the gun-wielding men suspected to be security operatives.

Speaking to journalists on the development, Agbomhere said the book was scheduled for launch at the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) Secretariat in Lagos, before the incident.

Agbomhere, who is also the initiator of Change Ambassador of Nigeria (CAN), said, “This book was being printed in Shomolu and I was told that the book that was to be launched today (Saturday) was taken away after someone within the printing press, who has sympathy for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), alerted security operatives about it.

“They came and confiscated all the printed copies of the book.  They came in mufti.

“We don’t know the arm of security agency that they belong to, or whether they are private individuals or not.

“The printers had to immediately release the books to them, because, they were heavily armed. I am not owing them. I have already paid them.”

Agbomhere added that the book mirrors Jonathan as a “President of the cabal, Tompolo, Asari-Dokubo and a few other corrupt elements, who are sponsoring Boko Haram to destroy Nigeria’s unity.

“The book says President Jonathan has failed to defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and as such should not seek re-election or ask for a job he know he doesn’t have the capacity to do,” he said.

The author dared Jonathan to act on the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) forensic audit report and bring those indicted by the report to book.

Also speaking, Ibilola Essien, a social entrepreneur with Act Now Nigeria, a non-governmental organisation, said the present administration has not done enough to salvage the country from the many problems besieging it.

According to her, poverty and corruption have continued to soar, while insecurity in the North East has claimed over 15,000 lives since 2009.

Handing over power to a "young soldier" from the south-east is an open invitation to anarchy and civil war. War is not something one prays to experience. It's better to let the people decide. If GEJ wins fair and square, I'll congratulate him and wish him well. If he looses, he should pack his bags and retire to Otuoke.

It is because GEJ is so humane. If his lawyers could just pick the lady up and let the judges decide. Same he could have done when GMB was indicted after the 2011 post election violence. If he did, Buhari would have been where he truly belongs, and not out here planning another round of murders.
Muslims in the West and North of Nigeria are busy trying to bully GEJ out of the presidency to install their Imam. Some short sighted sycophants in the East and SS are aiding them, and other deluded minority tribes are singing along. The middle belt understand this northern Muslims agenda better. Buhari is a Muslim and they believe they could renege from agreements at will, lie at will, deceive to promote Islam and their course. Somebody who never sat for secondary school certificate but claims to under oath, forged one and flaunting same before us. Yet, people are shouting that they want him. Israel chose a robber over Jesus Christ, are we not doing the same today? People are blindly saying what is certificate. They can't see how the North has run Nigeria with mediocrity ever since. Stampede the Otuoke son back to his village, he is sponsoring boko haram, he is clueless, he is corrupt, etc campaign are just because he does not want to hurt any Nigerian.
It is playing out in our face today, as before, that people hate honest people and meek persons but prefer wicked and tyrannical leaders.
Btw, GOD will vindicate GEJ.

Many Africans abuse many rights who told you freedom of information goes that way .there are things you write about a president when he is in power and what you write when he leaves from power.
Launching a book of such is provocative and undermines the nations current state of affairs .lt is politically motivated.
You can say this in a radio but you cannot author it as a book because there is no room in the book for debates over the issues you raised.
mind how you exercise every freedom

Do you believe the 2011 Election was free and fair, and did GEJ actually won the election? If yes, how many ppl from the North congratulated him?

Your Buhari never believed GEJ won the Election even when the whole world congratulated Nigeria that GEJ has tried by conducting one of the best election in the history of the country. But rather, your Buhari said ''if what happened in 2011 (free and fair election) should happen in 2015, the Dogs and the Baboon will be soaked in blood''.

A free and fair election to APC is when it wins.

Every region of the country should start planing how it want to live its live, because i have never seen what will stop GEJ from remaing the president of this country.
