Wow!
This said it all.
A very thorough analysis.
This is sensible.
But the likes of senseless Okupe will differ.
We Love GMB!
He must be Protected!
And He must win to save the Destiny of this great Nation.

Amen to that prayer.......

The man sure knows his onions and his support is well noticed and his write-up is unbiased with any ethnicity bigotry
Knows which onions? abi he knows his pepper ni.

Let me tell you, it is a common thing all over the country that those who fall out of the of the favour of the existing govt see nothing good about the govt. Now tell me why this his article will not be seen as being in the same light with the ones written by his fellow fallouts like obj, soludo, etc? If you are not with them, then they are devils but if you are still with them then they are saints.
Let him go to hell. Whatever will be will be. GEJ will win 2015, if they like let them write a book as big as mount Kilimanjaro it will amount to nothing.

Sir Festus Odumegwu should expect serious tongue lashing from the ethnic bigots predominantly from SE supporting this failed Presidency. I pity him cos the likes of Madam Obi Ezekwesili have witnessed it. GEJ supporters don't like the truth especially from their own.

Re: Festus Odimegwu- Ex NPC Chairman Endorses General Buhari by Sconty09(m):
I know Real Nigerians when i see them, Great,Sincere Compatriots who are not buying the clueless and corrupt Jonathan (PDP) antics. i wish we have more Nigerians who think like this and aware this is only country we have. And our biggest problem has been good leader who is selfless and not corrupt,courageous and de-tribalized. Jonathan has finished us as a Nation,making mockery of who we truly're. We need a leader who makes Nigeria a borderless country,bridges and roads from east to north, modern days tube trains from west to the south, across board economic development from bottom up. Who inspires us to grow as people(NIgerians) and believe in our collective destiny as people with common interests,that what is good for the Ibos,hausas-fulani is also good for the niger deltans and yorubas. i believe in my people as I shed tears writing this post,that we can be the greatest on eatrth in 10years with our resources across the land, our undying hope and handworking people. I lived in Abu Dhabi,UAE with my family,my wife and my child who both have US passport due to my wife American citizenship but sad when i traveled with my family due to my green Nigeria passport though they have Nigerian passport too but they used that only when we visit Nigeria. I want to see my country growing in strength economically and militarily because of our poplulation,growth is on our side by buying what we produced more than imported and militarily because nations envy us growing and successfully,that's been how nation successfully grow. i want to be proud of Nigeria as nation and hope of black race. i want to have confidence in the system that when i buy nobody can steal or take it away from me,when i invest my investment grows while i watch and when our people serve the system and become old wnen they cannot work anymore,their pensions are not stolen. A nation we can bequeath to our generations to come. when i visit the mall for groceries i saw products,fruits,vegetables that're tagged with their country,farmers are making more money from those countries with help of their leaders,i saw few african countries but not Nigeria who birthed in savannah,the greener- most part of africa. We truly don't need Jonathan i swear my people,we deserve a better leader like Shayk Zayed of UAE,an old man who shaped the future of his people,He put wealth in the hands of their people,paying the bset expats in the world to train their people,to construct the best bridges and roads across land. And make the best,quality education free for the locals from basics to ivy league universities in the world free for their people. Health insurance worth #10million each for the citizens,that re globally accepted. the system make available such for us too as an expats who live and work in their country. We have all it takes to be great,we deserve better leader,we should challenge our leaders on performance not his religion on where he comes from,after-all he is a Nigerian.

You have made yourself a judge over others calling them corrupt because they have made their choice of candidate. implying that whoever doesnt believe in what is believe is worthless and corrupt? i can see the type of brains typing on nairaland forum and do you expect me to continue arguing with you on this even after knowing the way you reason?.

A lot of people make a lot of noise about unity even while doing things that keep the country severely divided



Jona gyrating from church to and kneeling down left and right while his goofy VP rubs around telling Nigerians his party is a Muslim party while the APC is a christian party....


One thing about OBJ's open or disguised GMB support is giving cover, a go ahead and platform for other well meaning Nigerians to step out and pronounce their own GMB support. This is just the beginning...

It will only take someone with daunting and uncompromisng character to lead dis country. Don't be deceived by this Ur 'let the youth take over' syndrome,everyone has his responsibilities, so therefore the youths should find a significant role to play in this electioneering process.
#CHANGE has definitely come...and those who mean well for the country has no option than to endorse and be part of it!

As for the list of youths,google is your friend.

As for governing multiple ethnic states, I can do it without sentiments . I'm very sorry if you don't believe in yourself.

Please don't quote me again,I don't have time to waste.

whoever will be able to implement this as stated in the quote below is not to be found in the zoo nigeria. i'm afraid the only person capable of this task is me but i do not believe in the zoo nigeria. Biafra is my destiny!

[b]Take all Audit Reports on corruption cases since independence till date and set up a small body of 10 incorruptible Nigerians to vet it and sieve out all refunds needed. Work to set up special courts, with high integrity known judges with modern ICT-based court process and with international support and ask them to recover all stolen Nigerian funds in one year maximum. This will generate more funds than your Administration will ever be able to invest in Nigeria in eight years even without selling a drop of oil.

This is the best thing you can do for Nigeria with your integrity and honour. If it is not done, people will continue to steal turn by turn and kill themselves for political office. Public service must not be a route to material wealth. Public service should not be the best economy. It should only be an avenue for sacred service to fellow Nigerians. Once there is the political will to do this, you will be surprised how easy it is to execute. It is the criminals that should be afraid and not honourable Nigerians working on behalf of the Nation and on behalf of Nigerians. Stand firm on this.[/b]

I don't want to believe this tale.

What many people do not know is that the Northern Elites that are power drunk will not want the like of GMB to represent Northern Nigeria in any post. why? they knew he is fair in his dealings and can never be controlled by them, that explain why they have not been supporting him in his quest for the presidency since 2003. They prefer a Atiku, Sule Lamido or Kwankwaso that can easily be manipulated.
The Northern elites knew the presidential slot for the north is closed in PDP, thats why they pushed Atiku, Kwankwaso and Tambuwal to contest the slot with GMB in APC, Jagaban and other south west leaders in APC knew all these, that's why they stood stoutly behind GMB to clinch the APC presidential slot. The northern elite knew they are in for a tough time with GMB in power.

Anyway Sai Baba! Sai Buhari!
You are blessed! You are absolutely right. Northern elites see pdp as their party, the only party they have say and can be easily manipulated. I pity gej and his supporters, vp sambo is already set to take over with the support of this elites immediately after re-election through the back-door. Starting from the NSA and many others who made the election postponement succeeded are northerner elites protecting their interests.

How does it concern President GEJ if you endorse him when God has already proposed presidential sit to HIM.

Please keep your parts 1 to parts nonsense to yourself okay.

Surprising move by Dr Festus Odimegwu

It is clear that the majority of Nigerians irrespective of ethnic affliation want change in 2015

We are moving from Febuhari to March4Buhari

Sai Buhari
He is writing this long bull crap because he was sacked by Goodluck. A brilliant man that cannot keep his mouth shut is not a wise man. His diarrhea of the mouth got Nigerian breweries to fire him, n when giving the opportunity to clean up the census, he couldnt keep his mouth shut. I see clearly that all the major actors against Goodluck are those with all manner of axe to grind. Those sacked or lost out. If Festus was still in the NPC will he be saying this bull crap?

I had 2 hours discussions each with two well connected analysts from Nigeria in Dubai here few days ago.

My brother, what we know and discuss on Social Media is less than 5% of what these guys know but will not say in the open.

Festus Odimegwu supporting Buhari would have been a surprise to me if it was before my discussion with these two independent gentlemen in the last few days.

Guys, the private sector bigwigs are all behind Buhari except Jim Ovia (who is even mid-way sef), Jimoh Ibrahim and Atedo Peterside.

Don't ask me who Dangote, Femi Otedola and all these billionaire businessmen are backing.

One them from the South West, I was told by this friend who is an ED in a company in Lagos, was moving around his company asking staff who they wanted to vote for and one staff replied "Jonathan", wanting to impress this billionaire CEO who is a well known friend of GEJ administration. He was surprised when the man scolded him as "so it is that under-performing man you want to support?". And this is someone you see with GEJ!

A former CEO of one of top banks in Nigeria and a reference point in banking in Nigeria, told this friend I had a discussion with, "if Tinubu had run a bank, that bank would have been the most successful in Nigeria. The guy is just too brilliant. I have run bank for many years and sat on the board of many companies, but I have never met a savvy strategist like that man. When you sit down with him, and talk to him, you will think you're talking to someone that is a boardroom guru, a corporate strategist. He's thinking 3 steps ahead, when you're thinking 1". If a former CEO of a top bank is talking about someone with such awe, then know he meant it.

These Obasanjo boys, private sector guys, are fully clandestinely backing APC.

From my discussions I even got to know who was funding APC, and don't be surprised to hear that the biggest APC financier is a PDP general!

Mewa nlo!

Re: Festus Odimegwu- Ex NPC Chairman Endorses General Buhari by porka: 3:16pm On Feb 14, 2015
This article is not making any meaning.

The alleged writer is very confused.

Odimegwu was booted out of NPC for making inciting comments about the population of Nigeria.

The guy who raised the alarm against him and got him sacked is now a prominent member of the APC he so much eulogize here in this his confusing article (if indeed it was Festus Odimegwu that wrote it).

The premise on which he based his 'majority Nigerians will vote Buhari' theory is on the faulty census figures that got him to trouble the first time.

That the Northern population has been skewed by the British according to him is also evident in the current high number distribution of PVCs in the entire North while the South is still struggling to get theirs.

How this translate to any sensible conclusion of Buhari's presidency (if he wins) coming to right Odimegwu's wrongs beat anyone's imagination.
