AhmedMustapha:It was amusing to me though. He failed so much, I did not mind Atiku winning the primary |

Jonathan didn't lose the election because of northern conspiracy, but because of his incompetence and his mal handling of the economy. His showings in the last five years is a proof that he lacks the balls and the political will to govern this country and recent revelations regarding the true state of the economy also show that the country will be run aground if Jonathan is left to one more year in office. He openly played tribal politics and successfully divide the country along religion and ethnic lines. Never in the history of this country are the major tribes now seeing themselves as more of their tribes than more of Nigeria. Myself, most of my close pals and every eligible member of my family voted for Jonathan in 2011 and I openly campaigned for him because we felt he would make a difference being a former lecturer but he let everyone down. Just few years into his administration, money started developing wings and disappeared and nothing was done to stop it. The same people that have demonized by Nigerians became his confidants and cronies. Only a selfish, senile bigot would want that to continue. I campaigned for him in 2011 but I also campaigned against him in the last election and this time around, I made sure I convinced everyone that I know or privileged to have conversation with on the many reasons why he must be not returned. So my friends, there might be northern agenda but Jonathan was the Principal architect of his own failure. |

torkaka: 1)How was Jonathan anti-fiscal federalism?...By constituting confab right? 2)That you're up for grab for the highest bidder doesn't put others in your cadre... 3)I am proud of my patriarch and ancestry... hope you're ashamed of yours? 4)Joblessness is when you have time enough to monitor others and comment on their threads too... |

GrammarPolicee:see eh, truth be told, when it comes to politics, no region knows it better than the north. They so much love and soak themselves in politics nd also know how to play the game. An average northerner will prefer to buy a world receiver radio to be aware of what is goingonin the political hemisphere while his Southern counterpart will procure a smartphone for pinging... |

Facts: We were thrown together by destiny 2.The white men gave power to the North albeit through rigging. 3The South is more powerful than the North if they can come together. 4.North solicits the support of one part of the south against the other because the South cannot come together. 5.South East especially is always wary of the South West since the time of Azikiwe.I don't know why. 6.South South is always wary of the South East because of the South East's spirit of domination-my Calabar friend told me this... Solution? next... |

torkaka: Thank you and God bless you ojare. These insincere and clannish Nairalanders do not realize that their past post are here to highlight their hypocrisy when they don the 'zoro' mask to then try and pretend to be today what they were not interested in associating with yesterday. Yeye and hypocrisy dey smell. Jonathan was indeed "the poster child of 'anti' true federalism" and it is nauseating that those who wanted him to continue in power and were blind to GEJ's devotion to inordinate concentration of wealth, power and institutional authority in the hands of the FG, to the detriment of other tiers of our federation, now want to re-invent themselves as champions of 'devolution of power', regionalism and true fiscal federalism. Absolutely pathetic. |

MuguliciousMUGU:1. In the issue of security, he failed us when he went dancing after a terrorist attack. Who ought to be blamed for the corruption in the military? APC or the president? How can terrorists have killed +10,000 people and you dare come here to make excuses? What is wrong with you people? He built 9 universities coming from someone under who the universities went on strike for 9 freaking months due to his insincerity. And does education stop at the universities? Why not visit the federal government colleges and vomit?? Did I hear you say Agriculture is improving? What was the cost of food in 2011 and now? Has production increased? Do the farmers make more money? Save that BS for the birds ooo Did you just talk about press freedom? Where were you when Soldiers were chasing trucks carrying National newspapers and detaining their editors last year? I know you will turn a blind eye to it. What happened to copies of the Economist magazines that were taken off because they criticized the president? I can see you ignored electricity and the others right? Tell us why our foreign reserves have reduced even though the GEJ administration was there when crude was selling for the highest price? Paperweights |

Whynotthetruth: He should have left it open in my opinion. He bungled it, let the people speak and decide. Is that not what many of you want and lots have died for? He chose to be a nice guy, after all he's already rich and he doesn't need a republic to become richer. Like someone said here earlier all this talk of restructuring and federalism would have been uncalled for if we had sincere leaders who managed all we are given to develop our region. Our problems are useless leaders. Even if they give us 100% greedy leaders will still corner all and what we will have are richer strong people while the masses will continue to suffer. |

Whynotthetruth:Party politics is about who the overall delegates vote for not who a region vote for. Stop thinking region. Plus how do you know the North did not vote for Buhari? We all watched the primaries on TV. The regions were not separated so stop trying to whip up tribal sentiments with me, it is a waste. 2) Why blame me if you could not bring a convincing argument? at CONFAB? 3) Please show me my posts where I supported Oba Akinolu's comments against Igbos. I was against Agbaje because I believed he did not have what it takes to take Lagos where we want, his playing tribal politics and the fraud you people call primaries. Please post links to my tribal comments. I am waiting |

[s] barcanista:[/s] Shut up. You are very wicked and deceptive. The thread is up for discussion, go to your forum if you want a discussion of only SS/SE. Counter the so called half truth with point just like the OP is doing instead of being whinning like a raped cat. You want to keep spreading your wicked lies without being challenged, its only those that dont know the real you that do fall for your fake ways. This is nairaland and not barcaland where you can feed the gullibles with your lies. Chameleon. 4 Likes 1 Share |

philips70: I get your point succinctly but fiscal federalism abi regionalism is a more germane way of making the centre less attractive... promoting healthy competition between regions...engaging in comparative advantage biz...and looting will be minimal as your kinsmen won't allow their region go down as nobody will be there to liberate them...like Rochas asking buhari for bailout after looting his state dry...I would rather steal outside and run home than vice versa |

Ritchiee: Thanks so much...this is the driving force for this topic but people see it from a myopic lens of Jonathan thing...Jonathan is going by May 29th. But the injustice remains...NObody will ever be president again without permission from the North instead of people to unite against this...they mostly SW feel they are doing Jonathan by absconding from this... |
