Obiagelli: What better e-breakfast could I have asked for. For all we know....that bbm conversation could have been falsified. I have two smart phones.... I can replicate same in no time. As I support GEJ reach ehn... It would be an affront on my person for someone to come and tell me that in over 774 local governments of our federation, there was no case of blatant cheating somewhere, same goes for the opposition. Even if our main protagonists are saints, what about those supporting them....the ones we have never seen on twitter or any social media. This battle is way bigger than GEJ or GMB. No offence my amiable sister. But as for me, I will not be deluded into thinking we actually held elections in this country. What we had was a silent inter tribal war of sorts.....using the paper, ink and ballot box as a front. |

Obiagelli: Don't mizmycoli and all these loosers crying fowl. Mizmycoli is the women I used to respect a lot because of her reasoning but see how she turned her self to retarded.n because of clueless Goatluck. I served as presiding officer in kano and I swear to Allahu there was no any rigging that took place, besides it was even they elders from the area that assembled us and preached us to be honest in all our dealings. The truth is Northern people take politics very import and know what they want. Let me tell you a heart touching story that happened in my box. An old man escorted by his son slumped on the queue, people including his son carried him to the hospital where he was announced dead. But you know what, that his first son having lost a father still rushed back to the polling unit and begged people to excuse him to vote so that he will go and make his father. Where could this thing happened in the south please? 1 Like |

MizMyColi: You support Jonathan? Well that's interesting!! Never would have thought so. Generally speaking, Jonathan has been a colossal failure, the type never witnessed before. Supporters of Jonathan fall into one or both of the following categories - Those with religious/tribal sentiments - Those who've benefitted from Jonathan's administration. You seem a very rational individual to be swayed by sentiments of any kind. Well I guess you've got your reasons. Anyway as far as the north is concerned, you should understand Buhari is not just a candidate, he's a movement! Over the last four years, the north has borne the brunt of Jonathan's ineptitude, it's not difficult to see why they all what him out. Jonathan has failed himself, being a man from a less privileged background, he had the chance to unite Nigerians irrespective of religion or tribe, but he failed. He's disenfranchised a lot of young people especially in the north, most people want him out. Forget tribe or religion. If you perform well, people will sing your praises. 1 Like |

50calibre: I have always found it hard trying to reconcile Buhari's mantra and the crop of folks who support him. Something about him and his statements from the time of yore unsettles me. I've always maintained before now that if I were given any other viable option to Jona, I will give anything (except my blood) to see him or her kick GEJ out. Because of this election, my office has been on lockdown. My work route is quite volatile. For a very long time, before declaring support for the incumbent, I was indifferent...I just might be slipping back to my former position. My time off work caused me to reflect on stuff. I have laid most of my thoughts bare on this thread. One more conclusion I came to is this.... Beyond our rising emotions based on who we want in or out. We really need a Nigeria that progresses. Beyond my personal reservations We need Change that is positively transformational. However that is gone about, I don't care really. I know better than to think Elections were actually free and fair on both sides. I earnestly hope Nigeria remains a united entity. My message to whoever goes in or stays in is thus:- Just Deliver! Enough is Enough! |

papiforreal: You see how you're allowing bitterness trickle into your opinion simply because a choice I made didn't go well with you? Pity I was a PO too and I saw differently. A leopard never changes its spot, does it? I am not in any way disparaging your submission as that is very possible, but please don't go all; mzmycoli-knoweth-not-what-she-says. on me. Maybe if APC stalwarts were more curt and displayed a high level of tolerance to differing views and opinions, without resorting to verbal abuse at the seeming slightest provocation....I just might have pitched my tent with the APC (not necessarily Buhari)....but then, what does it matter anyway... Truth be told....I consider both of them devils, I just went for a lesser one. That is my opinion....which I'm sure you're boiling over right now. Your respect or disrespect of me; your putting me on a high or low pedestal changes nothing about the core of who I am......that's your view of me and I respect that. As you are very much entitled to your opinion and views, I am to mine too. I hope you respect that. 1 Like |

MizMyColi: Very true!! I've never been a supporter of Buhari, but this time, the wish to see Jonathan go has gotten so many people sympathetic to his course. In the eyes of many today, Buhari is the lesser of two evils. He may not be the best option for the country but he's the only alternative. Lets just hope for the best!! 1 Like |

Ichiato: No mind them. Even if you voted for Jonathan and believe he is the next best thing after slice bread. Then that's your problem. Do not vilify us with thouths of he won't perform or your evil wishes that Nigeria would worsen under Buhari. Even if it worsens, fine 2019 is there. We vote him out. No sentiments. Perform or be booted out. We want claw to strawmans analysis to keep some incompetent in office. Never. It is a fact that no president DEAD OR ALIVE would be as worse as Jonathan. Gbam. Can you inagine the types of Orubebe ruling us. Those are the henchmen of a President of a country. Behaving like a tout. I guess all tbose supporting GEJ can actually point Orubebe to their kids as their role models. Having a Phd is not a achievement but your decorum and actions depict the kind of person you are. |

It is sad I missed this conversation from the beginning. So many issues I would have loved to tackle. Especially the guy who erroneously claimed that those who support Jonathan fall within one or two of those categories he mentioned above. 1 Like |

50calibre: Northerners do not care about performance. If a cow contests with a Southerner; the cow will end up defeating a southern man. Buhari won many northern states when he contested with OBJ. Buhari got huge votes when he contested with GEJ in 2011. Raise a cow against a Fashola; The cow will get more northern votes. There is no such thing as 1 Nigeria. 1 Like |

@mizmycoli. I don't know which of your well researched and thoughtful comments to quote but what pisses me off is your eagerness to run back to your comfort zone on top of "paw paw" tree when faced with little gibberish from haters.

dunkem21: Hian kwa. But I've never mentioned my paw paw tree on this thread na. I only mentioned it as regards Lagos Guber. You know I'm not used to insulting people....and it hurts to just watch others insult you, yet I do nothing....not because my fingers aren't more deadlier and viler, but because, it goes against what I stand for. That's why I prefer playing audience most times. I had to face him today because he misconstrued my silence yesterday, I suppose. Nwanne, biko leave me joor. Na paw paw tree sure pass. I will come down, say my mind and go back up. If need be....I will stay and clear doubts. I lasted long on this thread because saner minds featured here. By now, you should know my personality well enough..... I shouldn't say more Yes....I support GEJ....even in the face of imminent loss. |

Goodluck jonathan don move on,but it is a shame that some people are still crying than the bereaved,they are taking panadol on another man headache,when GEJ won a lot of votes from northern states at 2011 nobody said that elections was rigged at the north,when GEJ won 1.4 million votes in rivers at this current election the PDP guys did not say it was rigged oo,they were busy claming that GEJ won all those votes on merits but now that GEJ just lost the election they all suddenly start ranting that election was rigged in the north.....hypocrites.......this is a lesson to everyone that they should always remember that no one has the monopoly for hypocrisy!!!!!NEXT!!!!!!!!! |
