Nice one. I think Buhari's supporters in the north needs this message more. We don't need more killings this time around.
The man and his supporters are violence personified.

APC is a peaceful party. We are allergic to violence. I hope the trouble-maker party(PDP) can abide by the rules of whatevr outcome that will come out of the said conference.

Buhari will find a reason not to be there. For debates he had townhall meetings as excuse, for the other one, he accused the organisers of being PDP apologists. He always has an issue. I am not surprised though, he is violent and bloodthirsty.

I disagree. Rtd Major-General Buhari is not afraid of press conferences or even TV interviews administered by sympathetic interviewers.

Their efforts will be heavily appreciated..from a behavioural point of view.

However, as a matter of fact, this exercise is useless.

The foundations for these electoral violence have been put in place, dating back to Buhari's caustic trouble-brewing comments after the 2011 perfect elections, the Boko Haram sudden re-appearance after the Northener lost and now, President Jonathan's virtual underperformance.

My Take? They should just let us be.
Jonathan should probably prepare to depart. The people are heavily aggrieved and sentimental to take cognizance of any positive impact he may have had so far and up his sleeves..

Buhari should probably prepare to end up like his predecessors, dead or ousted. Hopefully, Osibanjo will succeed him in time, rebel against his Godfathers and take Nigeria to the next level. A man that waits till he's Number 1 citizen before he sacrifices for his country is not a worthy citizen.

Happy Valentine's Day. angry

"Sympathetic interviewers" are you implying that General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) doesn't grant or is afraid of interviews administered by non-sympathetic interviewers?

Would he grant an interview to AIT or NTA? (In all fairness the same can be said about GEJ who only does media chats with friendly journalists)

We know those ones are not blood thirsty, Their threats are aimed at highly placed individuals, but for the ones up north, killing is their hobby. I know you know happened the last time this illiterate man lost.

As a PDP "goon" rightly said "no one owns the monopoly of violence"; I therefore conclude that this is a welcomed development, and frown at the hasty generalization by some users of this forum.

No, Seun is kind of hard to understand. Today he's siding GEJ, another day, he's siding GMB, I like it like that though. It's good he conceals his choice.

And when GEJ boycotted the presidential debate in 2011? And instead went on a self acclaimed interview with D'banj did the CPC and CAN supporters then chew him alive?.
