listen to yourself. "just like Obama said..." blah. is it really necessary? when Hillary Clinton quoted Lil Wayne's rap in a campaign speech recently did she say just like lil Wayne rapped ogbeni take your wailing out of my profile don't quote me again oh.

ceeethru:
PMB plagiarized Obama, yes.

Let Obama take it up if he has time for such trivia in the face of more important state matters.

We voted neither an orator nor a literary giant. If PMB has to copy all the leaders in the world, by all means let him do that as long as he delivers.

What next?

Paperwhite:
As usual they have started arriving.When you do so then give credit to whom it's due.Do you know the effects of what he president have done? Have you done a project work & another person plagiarized it? Don't be daft bro.

Uchihaitaci:
I think your are poorly educated , probably a teenager in secondary school even?

mars123:
But these wailing buffoons like their leaders do not and cannot tell me Buhari has committed a crime by using part of someone's speech. Why because a speech is a vocalised form of communication and hence its not a crime to copy part of someone speech if it fits with the occasion. leaders everywhere every time do it and you can research if you want.

See President Buhari’s speech below:

We must resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship, pettiness and immaturity that have poisoned our country for so long.

Let us summon a new spirit of responsibility, spirit of service, of patriotism and sacrifice. Let us all resolve to pitch in and work hard and look after, not only ourselves but one another.

What the current problem has taught us is that we cannot have a thriving army of rent seekers and vested interests, while the majority suffers.

See Barack Obama’s speech below:

So let us summon a new spirit of patriotism, of responsibility, where each of us resolves to pitch in and work harder and look after not only ourselves but each other.

Let us remember that, if this financial crisis taught us anything, it’s that we cannot have a thriving Wall Street while Main Street suffers.

In this country, we rise or fall as one nation, as one people. Let’s resist the temptation to fall back on the same partisanship and pettiness and immaturity that has poisoned our politics for so long.



is this really pliagiarism? I think not.

flatheadedbigot:
assuming it's true ,ipobs,flat headed bigots,fake Ugandans ask yourself if Obama have ever plagiarized somebody's speech? anuofias

socialmediaman:
"According to Barack Obama, ...." Or

"Just like Martin Luther King Jr once said, I do have a dream that ...."

That's how you give someone credit in a public vocal speech

Paperwhite:
Do you slowpoke brain knows the implication of what the dull president have done? You own stupidity seems worst than his.

Paperwhite:
Well if it's the education,one pray that they receive it on time before it will be too late but will the zombie spirit allow it?

Malawian:

usbcable:

Malawian:

franciskaine:
tell me one academic work that does not have an atom of plagiarism, education in itself is plagiarism.

mars123:
I bet you are too shallow to know what we are talking about here.

chachanga:
The mugun lacks all the basic requisites of what a Class-Rep should not be, talk less of a President. With the degree of brainpower at his disposal, even an SS3 student would have written his speeches. So if dem copy, how e wan take know?

And he's surrounded by hate-filled, rumor-mongering, thieving and scheming-advisors; so who can tell am even if he wan enter pit?!

franciskaine:
since you know the implication, go and Sue him to court. Mtchew

mars123:
so you would have preferred he started quoting references after he finished the speech? you should be smarter than this.

People who think they have knowledge are quoting me to tell me how "foolish" I am and how smart they are. For your information, plagiarism is when you copy someones work and take credit for it. then u can be stripped of honours and taken to court too, this I know.

I hope you have learnt something today...mumu full nairaland abeg.

tobiasbeecher:
Though I'm quite sure you're an illiterate, but if by mistake you went to school just return whatever money they spent on you because it's a waste. Look at how you're shamelessly defending nonsense just because of useless politics. Just get of here, the forum will be better of without zombies like you

mars123:
so what happens when you don't give credit? moreover in this context it wasn't said in the same manner so hence you cant say " Obama said" the writers are smart.
