For pro-GEJites the 2015 campaign is about Buhari, Buhari and Buhari. For pro- GMBites the 2015 campaign is about Nigeria, Nigeria & Nigeria.

Questions for Jonathan and PDP
1. Why was (is) "Boko Haram" busy destroying
states and areas that the opposition party will
win convincingly in the presidential election?
2. If we are to believe that the opposition were
the brains and architects of "Boko Haram",
then why is it that they have never ever
attacked and destroyed any prominent PDP
figure or their properties?
3. If the opposition have the capability of
arming "terrorists" with armour tanks, RPGs,
AA Guns, military uniforms, military trucks,
helicopters and the ability to command
soldiers to vanish from military checkpoints,
wouldn't they have targeted to destroy PDP
strongholds and their assets?
4. Why would the opposition seek to destroy
their own strongholds anyway? To achieve
what?
5. Why was (is) "Boko Haram" targeting to
destroy basically only prominent northern
politicians and their traditional rulers and their
communities?
6. In the light of questions 1 to 5 above, why
has there been a deliberate campaign of lies
and propaganda by the PDP and their religious
wing that collect bribes in billions of naira that
"Boko Haram" is the baby of the opposition?
7. Of all the cars used by "suicide" bombers
retrieved from the scene of their attacks, to
whom were the cars traced after forensic
investigations? Why is it that nothing is ever
heard after such evidences have been collated
at the scenes since 2011?
8. At the last count, over 500 hundred "Boko
Haram" suspects have been in detention since
2009, but why is it that government hasn't
been able to come clean on those sponsoring
the "terrorists", and why is it that, with such a
huge treasure trove, government has not been
able to know and curtail the operational
methods of the "terrorists"?
9. Why did the "terrorists" become stronger
after a scandalous 33 billion dollars (over 4
trillion naira) was expended on the so called
war against them?
10. Isn't it curious and suspicious that a
ragtag group called "Boko Haram" whose bulk
of fighters possibly had only one week
trainings could overcome and overrun our
military men who spend 5 years in the NDA,
some months in Jaji, and some months also
at the National War College in Abuja apart
from several overseas trainings?
11. Why was it that, at a point from 2013, the
Nigerian military was not taking the war to
"Boko Haram" camps in the deserts of the
northeast instead of waiting for "Boko Haram"
to come on the offensive?
12. Since when has repulsion become the best
form of defence instead of attack?
13. Why did "Boko Haram" have the most
freedom to operate and destroy so many
towns and villages during all the period of
State of Emergency that was supposed to have
made them immobile?
14. Was the State of Emergency some fraud
pulled off to empower the "terrorists" and
make the targeted communities sitting ducks
for easy elimination?
15. Who was providing "Boko Haram" with fuel
and other logistics in their camps considering
how they easily move with long convoys of
trucks to operate without challenge?
These are not the only questions.... There are
many more. But they've not been able to
answer any of these, rather they always want
to heap their scheme on others.
These questions and many more could be the
reason they are mortally scared of losing
political power. But it just can't continue like
this anymore.

Agbakoba knows that APC is not the party we need cos they are good at making promises they cannot fulfil.

They say they will fight corruption meanwhile their major financier, Tinubu, is smelling heavily of corruption. Atiku's case is too bad that I can't even mention it here.

They say they will stabilise oil price meanwhile OPEC, an international organisation that comprises countries that are major producers of oil, who is even the only body that has the strongest influence on oil price is still unable to stabilise oil price.

They say they will create jobs meanwhile the bulk of the unemployed youths are resident in the states where they control (ie Lagos and Kano) and they've not been able to solve the unemployment crises in their state.

They say they will eradicate Boko Haram but they never told us how they would do it differently from the way Jonathan is doing it. I'm sure they are even surprised at our current victory against the terrorist.

Truly, APC is a clueless party.

hansad:
The emboldened portion of your long talk: All along, the fight against Boko Haram was being sabotaged by too many Nigerian groups who share same religious belief with Boko Haram fighters. Boko Haram had severally stated that it is fighting for a country friendly with obsolete sharia criminal laws like stoning women to death for adultery, chopping off hands of petty thieves, etc.

About the year 2000, about 12 northern Nigeria states adopted such obsolete and unconstitutional sharia criminal laws into their legal systems. In fact, they inadvertently drew the borders for a new country from Nigeria with that act.

Like customary Laws, Sharia Civil Laws have been in Nigeria's constitution long before then; not sharia criminal laws.

In 2001, Muhammadu Buhari, during a speech in Kaduna charged Muslims to ensure that such obsolete and unconstitutional sharia criminal laws be implemented all over Nigeria.

Since then, Boko Haram has intensified its violence against Nigeria.

Buhari at one time argued for Boko Haram, and said that they are freedom fighters, and asked that the group be granted amnesty, only for him to recant a few days ago in the UK that he would not grant amnesty to the group if he becomes president of Nigeria.

At one point, senior officers of Nigerian Army were threatened with prosecution at The Hague for using what was seen by many as scorched-earth approach to combat Boko Haram. Amnesty International screamed Blue Murder.

Recently, International Forces joined Nigeria Army in the fight against Boko Haram, that must have emboldened Nigerian forces to commit to a bigger fight knowing full well that such threats like prosecution at The Hague may no longer crop up given that multi-national forces are now involved.

You pretend a lot as if you are a JJC to Nigeria. You do not preach for change from fry pan to fire.

jites:
This is my take on this election issue, please excuse the typo as I am using my phone to type this . I am not a politician and the truth I won't be voting cos am in diaspora, but I stand to be corrected by the political gurus here. I am being bombarded daily with campaign from both parties and the content of these campaigns are either Buhari don't have certificate or SSCE or whatever they call it or Jonathan and his cohorts are corrupt. I am yet to see campaign based on proper policies or manifesto rather it's image smearing, intimidation, bribery I see taking place. I live in the UK and at campaign here you here the politicians talk about how they will invest more in the health service, reduce the national debt, invest in education, employment, infrastructure, defence, research etc I lived in Nigeria for about 23 years and in all those years I never saw electricity constant for just one complete day yet Nigeria get billions from oil revenue, see what oil revenue has been used to achieve in a place like Dubai , universities are churning out thousands of graduate every year with no employment prospects, the roads are death traps, countless number of sick people are dying from simple procedures at the hospital, a common ceaseran section you are looking at a 50 50 chance of survival, general hispitals are more like a place where you get sentenced to death, teachers are not being paid for months and months and are expected to keep teaching, universities go on strikes for up to 2 or 3 years sometimes, enough to complete a degree,police are ill equiped to confront criminals and now Boko Haram are ravaging the country at will sometimes overrunning barracks, pensioners not getting paid. The list is endless and all I hear is he has certificate he does not have certificate, he will throw corrupt people in jail, Jonathan is corrupt, this and that,Billions disappeared with no trace, your annual salary plus allowances is 20 million naira in 4 year if you don't spend a penny out of it you should have 80 million naira oh no what do we have with most nigerian politician.. at the end of 4 years they have 90 billion dollars in the states, 200 million pounds in the UK, countless houses in South Africa dubai and Switzerland.... mathematically impossible even with compound interest . Jonathan you have been president for 4 years, did you forget to do something and now need another 4 years, tell us the policies you plan to implement, Buhari you were once head of state too, with almost total power and what did you do, oh I forgot War against indiscipline, you this WAI thing was not a bad idea then but the implementation was inhamanely carried out, citizens were living in fear almost held captive in their own home, barbaric ally implemented.maybe with an SSCE you would have been able to devise a better way to implement it, but no. We had intellectuals, humanist, socialist you could have consulted on the best way to implement it but no treating citizens as animal was your best idea. I WEEP for Nigeria and Nigerian, you are now being given recharge cards, onions and rice to get your vote and mortgage yours and your children future. Which way Nigeria; use your vote to decide your future, hold the aspirant to account, ask to see their policies and manifesto and there should be provision to be able to impeached any politician who does not deliver on their manifesto, challenge the aspirants to go on national TV to debate each other on policies and not mere where is your certificate and it's with babagida or with the army...
With over 200 million people, we have a crop of smart intelligent men and women in Nigeria and yet we are presented with a choice between Buhari and Jonathan both of whom had had their go at ruling this great nation, there must be better options, CHANGE yes that is what i will call CHANGE a new face, new idealogy not same from the past. We are forced to choose between an orange and a mango but the truth is i dont want neither i want a pear. but unfortunately come march an orange or a mango will be forced down my throat.
but hey what do I know, I am not a politician. GOD SAVE NIGERIA

Maybe



but this is the first time a party is giving the pdp a run for their money and that makes a lot of difference.


Imagine, out of six weeks added to the election, six ships were commissioned to the nave. Two power stations were also commissioned. Boko are rams are on the run. Why?

Coz someone is afraid to lose the election.


Now... Assume the election is between pdp and apga.


My friend.... There are a lot of differences.

Infact, this is the first time am gonna vote coz to me, this election is very different.





Lets see someone sweat for the votes

These names alone, Alamieyeseigha and Ibori, reeks of more corruption than anything. Yet Alams is contesting for Senator
#Never can this happen in saner climes

Don't worry there would be change this time

sauceny:
The only change APC meant was "Asin power much change hands,cos itz our turn to go into an act of thievery"

The only job opportunities waiting for our young graduates under the leadership of APC are

1...[size=20pt]Brt Bus Drivers[/size]
2...[size=20pt]Massive Opc Recruit[/size]
3...[size=20pt]Agberos/Street Urchins[/size]
4...[size=20pt]Mama Lojas[/size]
5...[size=20pt]Papa Lojas[/size]
6...[size=20pt]Tax Collectors[/size]

Then finally... Timinunubu would find a way to convert Aso Rock as his personal property & before you say "jack robinson" he owns Nigeria #SleepingOpenEye

tonero92:
Lovely piece! Now my answer!
1.) it is because the northerners taught they will benefit from boko haram
2.)because training a soldier in NDA if he has no superior fire power is useless
3.)because the us refused to sell us weapons! Blocked Isreal and South Africa from equally assisting us
4.) because now our neighbors are in the fight with us and boko haram has no where to run to
5.)because pa buhari said an attack on boko haram is an attack on the north!
6.)because lai Mohammed Acn condemned boko haram being tagged a terrorist group.


Whether you like am or not GEJ TILL 2019!!!. FIRST PRESIDENT TO STOP EBOLA! And he will now be the FIRST PRESIDENT TO DESTROY A TERRORIST GROUP!
Dr. GOODLUCK AZIKIWE EBELE JONATHAN 2010-2019 GOD'S CHOICE!

AHOY147:
The big man is on point, actually nothing will happen if opposition loses. Another point he spoke about that interest me most is the version of change that APC are chanting, it's double suspicious and coated with sugar but lack basic ingredients and substance. No sane and historic students of this nation will support the kind of change the opposition preaches base on the fact that their antecedents falls below pass mark, filled with deception and as such should be rejected and oppose by any well meaning citizens of this nation.

Like I had always said before, opposition is good any progressive minded nation but then looking at the crop of opposition we have in our polity the reverse is case. They are selfish and unpatriotic in their dealings, for instance the issue of national security is a collective responsibility not the sole responsibility of the government but when they criticize they will flog it out of proportion and it's not healthy for our economy and especially in our international repute. Besides, issues of these nature are best handled diplomatically because it scared investors.

However, I will still like to give kudos to the opposition for keeping the government at its toes, today this administration achieved what we have on grounds today especially on our transportation sector, agriculture, power etc was as a result of opposition.

As a concerned Nigerian, I support continuity and stability considering the fact that this administration has performed considerable well and still having some projects ongoing which by grace of God could be completed before next four years. lets give them that benefits of doubt and after we will give opposition chance.

GEJ till 2019.

mightycrown1:
really, but do you have source

YoursGEJ:
I understand his frustration but the plain truth is that Nigeria cannot continue on the same path we've been on for the next four years. Corruption and insecurity have increased while power remains a distant dream. Sixteen years of PDP rule with nothing to show for it demands that we try something else. APC is that "something else".

And someone should tell GEJ and Okupe and their goons to stop calling me and asking me to support PDP for money. No be by force. Over my dead body. I am not like those Nigerians who used to make sensible contributions on NL before and were swayed by money and now sound like imbeci.les when they talk. I will always tell the truth and stand for what is right till the day that I die.

I used to love GEJ. In fact, my NL moniker was chosen in his honor. But voting for him in April 2011 was a huge mistake

Toofan007:
I think it's disingenuous for anybody to say this electioneering has not been different from the recent ones. Yes, it could still have more issues based, even the oldest democracies didn't get in a day. PDP are being given a run for their money, even If they win, God forbid, I think they step down the arrogance with which they said they would rule Nigeria for 60yrs. IMHO, PDP in 16yrs have not done enough, that's why I'm voting for Buhari, I ain't saying he a saint. after all, we've had PDP for sixteen years, if after 4years they mess up, we change them. This is how the top democracies got to be the top.
