Some dont just understand English at all. Interfere is different from intervene

Look at who is teaching English. Can you intervene with out interference. Even what someone posted above shows the intervention is part of interference .


Interfere - 1. prevent (a process or activity) from continuing or being carried out properly.
"a job would interfere with his studies". 2. take part or Intervene in an activity without invitation or necessity.
synonyms: impede, obstruct, stand in the way of, hinder, inhibit, restrict, constrain, hamper, handicap, cramp, check, block; More 

Intervene - to come between disputing people, groups, etc.; intercede; mediate. 2. to occur or be between two things. 3. to occur or happen between other events or periods.

PassingShot:
Not interfering is not same as not intervening.

PMB says he will not interfere in how they choose their leaders.

It's not the same as not intervening when a problem needs to be solved by appealing to them to conduct themselves in a proper manner befitting of their status.

Thanks for taking the time to clarify the difference to those who are quick to judge and confuse terms.

Buhari as the APC leader promised never to interfere in the selection or election of its legislative leaders,yet only a foolish president will allow a crisis that can destroy his party and frustrate his presidency to fester.

He has to intervene,and it must be NOW!

kettykings:
Tinubu is the worst kleptocrat in nigeria others have retired but Tinubu's stupid lust for embezzled government funds will lead him to the grave

where is your evidence? So tinubu is worse than Ibb,abacha,akpabio,Deziani,GEJ,OBJ,Lawan Farouk? You're spitting thrash...where is your evidence biko

When pesin go school n could not differenciate between INTERFARE and INTERVENE e de make me taya. Go n check ur Michael West Dictionary

ige101:
And if I may ask where is the dispute or crisis? There are only two interest group and hasn't result to crisis.we are talking of election and in an election two or more candidates are like to emerge and that is exactly what is playing out and not crisis.

APC national leadership already did wrong by supporting a candidate

The crisis is in the fact that there is a division already in APC camp.

APC has not done anything wrong in having a preference. The party should normally be in a position to know who they want to occupy the seat of SP and that is what they have done.

What Saraki has done wrong is to offer deputy speakership to opposition all in a bid to become SP. If this is not desperation, tell me what is.

ENZOSCIFO1:
I love criticism but pls let's make it constructive. Can you give me an instance of when he shifted goal post when in power whether now or before?

Did he not say he is for everyone and he is for nobody, did he not say he will not get into the election of principal offices in the national assembly

kettykings:
That man who says something today but changes his mind shifts the goal post the next second can never be trusted. This is even 9 days after his oat of office, how do we now come to terms with other gimmicks like I am for all and I am for nobody.

Actually, the "man who says something today but changes his mind or shift the goal post the next second..." is right now in Otuoke thinking about his misdeeds! Interfering is quite different from intervening. Stop confusing yourself.

Mr President dont be panic in that meeting, i wish u best. GOD BLESS Mr President MB. GOD BLESS APC. GOD BLESS NIGERIANS.

What a day to look forward to?!!

ige101:
Then what now makes the process ELECTION?

Or you think its selection they are doing?

My brother it has always been a selection except few occasions where the legislature elected its own leader. I can only think of Okadigbo and Tambuwal. It is always 'where does he come from?'

dealslip:
Baba when you travel Saraki and Dogara were fighting everyone. Saraki gossiped about APC with PDP. He also called Prof Yim a common commissioner.

thought some of us said it's PDP's propaganda.

Are u sure u've got sumtin upstairs? He his not the one fighting , he just wanna settle the dispute between the party member's by talking to them and telling them the world is watching. I trust my president to talk to them like a true leader who knw what he's doing not a clueless man who Nigerians just sent packing by telling them is this the change u promised Nigerians? I don't want that saraki to be the Senate president cos he's a thief who looted Kwara state funds.. God will safe us in this dear country of ours.
God bless Nigeria
God bless pmb
God bless me....

Tinubu's penchant for government money has no match, how did tinubu get enough money to acquire a private jet, who bankrolled Apc primaries and election campaign.
Who owns oando, the nation newspaper, tvc, radio continental, first nation,oriental hotel etc

helpee:
Buhari should stop breaking his promises so early now.....he promised never to intervene in NASS elections. He promised to work with whoever emerges. Why trying to arm twist them now? Baba....there is God ooooo

Oga see the different between interfering and intervene above you by PASSINSHOT.

Good morning.

Babaonechance yet again breaks another campaign promise! Changing instantly from a "sheep" to a wolf after ascending into power.. Such action as the World at large can witness is not new to this present administration. As a matter of fact such has been the norm since the inauguration of the brainless one. The dura man's government is one made up of disgruntled bed fellows who are thirsty for power! See how they embarrassing the nation with their greed.

Using his "general" demeanor, the dura chap is expected to arm twist his party faithful's into voting for who he wants rather than who they (law makers) want to lead them.
This action is a dent to democracy and it's highly condemned when eventually carried out.

Indeed change is here! A change for retrogression. Shame!

Look at who is asking if I have got something upstairs, when it is your head that needs examination.

SuperSuave:
saraki should stop all these rubbish. Nigeria is not kwara, you cannot go against the the peoples will this time. you think you can manipulate things like you're doing in kwara abi

Shut up hu.what do you mean by people's wish, what do you what do you want from a senate president that you are not seeing about mr. saraki. or do u mean the senator elect from pdp are nt human. please, what do u really mean by people's will?

Ok Baba
The travelling done do
Stay home and start work
The country is in very bad shape and needs an aggressive leader who will work not talk somebody to death.
Don't be like Obama that is leading G7 and the world, when he can't even control rampant nationwide police brutality against his own race in his own country.

Our sense of reasoning at times baffles me... So, because PMB says he will NOT interfere in the election of principal officers of the National Assembly, he should not intervene in the crisis but allow them to tear at their throats and put the APC and Nigerians at jeopardy abi? Calling the disagreeing parties to order is NOT interfering please. PMB is doing the right thing and I am proud of him for taking that initiative.

Appreciated.

Something seems to be wrong here,

Come to think of it, why would Mr President consult only Apc elected Legislators?

Mr President really have to understand that He is now the president of Nigeria and not just Apc president.

Beside Mr president stated on His inaugural speech that He will not be for Anyone but for Everybody,

I suggest Mr president should stop mentioning Apc nor PdP in public affairs to avoind a public radical chaos.......

kettykings:
First educate your self, It is only in nigeria that the founder of kleptocracy in the person of Tinubu will join hands with the founder of war against indiscipline in the person of Buhari to deceive and mislead their gullible and naive followers ,if this is not hypocrisy then hypocrisy is this.

Whatever you guyz are doing in an attempt to dis-credit new government will not work. You Tanoids are just being jittery, you had the fair chance to change the nation for better in the last six years but you failed. Your leaders tore the path of corruption, impunity and favouritism. If Tinubu is all what you GEJ apologist claim he his, then you must apologize to Nigerians again for not jailing him in your 6years of mis-rule because that alone is enough reason you don't deserve a second term. Every party must have internal crisis except if there no human beings there, where there are human beings, there is going to be different interest.

kettykings:

Amazing how your mind work in fast forward rate. He did say he was for everybody and for nobody... and has he acted the contrary? or you think because he calls a meeting of Elected members it is to induce them on who or not to vote for?

The party is suffering mild crisis that has made certain elected officers come out openly and cast aspersions on the party leadership.As a respected party leader you think he should just ignore them and not intervene to resolve whatever is the cause of the crisis, well that'swhat leaders do. If you think he should just completely ignore them for fear of people mis reading his move has interference or inducement then he won't be fit to be called a leader.

Perhaps you are itching to get on this opposition thingy, not to worry 4 years will provide numerous windows of opportunity that would be worth it, not on a classless issue like this.

Reading what you wrote simply means you did not understand buhari ' speech all along.
Buhari said before an audience of more than 2 billion people worldwide that he is for no one and he is for everyone, just 9 days after he is now for some candidates and against some candidates.
When the previous house of Representatives voted against zoning by voting Tambuwal as the Speaker, did jonathan shift from his seat.

Emenahagos02:
More people will still leave APC, they are not united, bunch of crooks, their party door is ajar.

They have nowhere to Go. They know PDP has been massively rejected by the people.

The reason why most of them were in PDP was because of the impunity that rained supreme which had made all of them have a dark spot on their political CV and in Nigerian politics, Loyalty and allegiance is Forgiveness.

He should have called for a reconciliation meeting after the election so as not to give the whole world a wrong impression that he interfered in the national assembly election.

Buhari has started compromising and giving the wrong impression to critics

But you deliberately chose to ignore the "without invitation or necessity" part just to suit your end.
