5thElement: Before I answer your question, let me state that it will seem both of us are in agreement that GEJ and PMB are failures. It is only that in 2015, I did know that PMB will be more of a failure than GEJ. I knew PMB's failure will make GEJ look like a huge success. That was why I preferred GEJ retaining the presidency. Now to answer your question, these are some of the people I wouldn't mind if they're to become the president of Nigeria come 2019 Ayo Fayose, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, FFK, OfoIgbo Pat Utomi, Oby Ezekwesili and Chukwuma Soludo would have made the list, but for the glaring ERROR OF JUDGEMENT they made in 2015. I have lost confidence in their decision-making capabilities. I just don't fancy having a president that will make a glaring error that I wouldn't have made, only to show up a few years down the line, to start telling me IF I HAD KNOWN; well, I KNOW, and should have been asked. 1 Like |

It is only that in 2015, I did know that PMB will be more of a failure than GEJ. I knew PMB's failure will make GEJ look like a huge success. That was why I preferred GEJ retaining the presidency. While I agree that both PMB and GEJ are failures, to say PMB is a greater failure is to portray a lack of logic. There's no way you can compare both administrations. Weren't you the one that said people wouldn't say such about Buhari if the oil prices hadn't gone down? GEJ had a lot more resources than PMB. GEJ had 6years to right the wrongs of Nigeria, PMB has just done 3years. Where in heaven's sake is the comparison? I just don't see it. Now to answer your question, these are some of the people I wouldn't mind if they're to become the president of Nigeria come 2019 Lolest. You are kidding, right? Please tell me you are kidding. As a matter of fact the only name I might be willing to consider is Ofoigbo, but since he too has an error of judgement in thinking had Jonathan's government of 6 years and $120/barrel is better than Buhari's 3years and $40something/barrel. I definitely will not consider him since he won't know what to do if crude oil prices rise to $100/barrel. As to the other names, please perish the thought unless you're using style to wish calamity on this country. Pat Utomi, Oby Ezekwesili and Chukwuma Soludo would have made the list, but for the glaring ERROR OF JUDGEMENT they made in 2015. I have lost confidence in their decision-making capabilities. I just don't fancy having a president that will make a glaring error that I wouldn't have made, only to show up a few years down the line, to start telling me IF I HAD KNOWN; well, I KNOW, and should have been asked. I wouldn't mind Ezekwesili or Soludo as president. Pat Utomi ain't so above board. If you know, you know. FFK? Fayose? Iweala? God forbid a billion times. In a functioning society, the 3 will be adorning prison clothes. 1 Like |

OfoIgbo: Gej own was special No 12 million votes propped up buhari Buhari was never an alternative when OBJ was in power. The same goes for Yaradua. Now that's a major problem, because Ijaws in particular and easterners in general rightly figured out that a different set of rules now applied for GEJ. Obj wrangled him in knowing that yaradua would die There was no different rule then ba He has 5 years to prove himself What is unfair there Corrupt how Which constitution are you reading But Sowore and the other hypnotised and zombified morons happily overlooked these grave issues that should have been a major source of concern for all right-thinking people. And you are here trying to convince Nigerians that a man of such despicable qualities should be considered for the presidential post. Smh we need a youth to assume the leadership of this nation, but not just any youth. We need a youth with SOUND JUDGEMENT, and not one that will fall for any false illusion, and will happily condone corruption tendencies. This obviously rules out Soworename the youth Don't forget it was a litany of youth that put us here with inexperience |

Governor Ganduje of Kano has already proposed to house all herdsmen in Kano. That is a viable solution.

These politicians eat human flesh (confirmed o) whenever they meet at night. I know a caterer who witnessed this because she got the contract to cook for their night meeting. She's a nervous wreck till today. She's stopped catering. The little I know about Sowore will make me listen and follow his campaign more to see what he's got to offer.

[quote author=5thElement post=66495931][/quote] Let me set a few records straight. GEJ only did 5 years of presidency. You should not be counting his acting presidency period afterall, he was only bound to follow the dictates of the president. Buhari has ruled Nigeria for more than 4 and half years (a few months short of 5 years), as you must not forget he committed treason against this nation and illegally/corruptly ruled Nigeria for over one and half years before he was toppled by another dictator. In fact in a few months time, Buhari would have spent more time ruling Nigeria than GEJ. Go to the middlebelt, bearing in mind that middlebelters supported Buhari's emergence. Ortom was a major supporter of Buhari. Go there now, and ask him whether he prefers GEJ's or PMB's presidency and see the reply you will get. When OBJ was the president, the price of oil was far lower than it is now, yet the economy was fairing far better than it is now. A few months before GEJ left the scene, the price of oil was lower than it is now, so it is not a truism that the price of oil was always above $100 all through his presidency. With regards to general competence in managing the aspirations of the populace, GEJ was far better than PMB. Go and check the price of a bag or rice and compare with the price during GEJ's period. Go and take a look at the list of people appointed by GEJ to man the security structure of the nation, and you will see every zone represented. Compare this with PMB's security chiefs and see NEPOTISM screaming at you. Look at the way the lives of middlebelters are being snuffed out, with little or no concern from the presidency. All of a sudden, the president can no longer sack an IGP who clearly disobeyed his order to relocate to Benue, and known Miyetti Allah operatives who have made homicidal statements, allowed to exist in normal society. Just yesterday, I gave an Idoma guy that works in our company some money to send to his mother and young siblings, who now spend most nights in the bush, as they fear the marauding herdsmen who attack randomly. Let's not even look at the corruption angle, as PMB's government has proven itself to be a topnotch master in the art, starting from Baru's NNPC, to pythons swallowing money, to the SGF saga and Maina brouhaha e.t.c. The funny thing being that this gross incompetence, nepotism, islamic expansionist/fulani occupation tendencies were predicted way before PMB was elected, but your wise gods, Sowore inclusive, convinced the other unintelligent zombies that PMB was now a born-again democrat. With the selections that I made with regards to the 2019 presidential choice, I prefer every single one of them far above Sowore, as I know they are much more likely to appreciate the usefulness of the 1963 constitution in the nation's current political development trajectory. Let me even add Saraki to that list also |

Re: 2019: ‘I Can Run Nigeria Better Than Buhari Even In My Sleep’ – Sowore by Nobody: 10:33am On Apr 07, 2018 |
OfoIgbo: Uhmmm... Bros, out of the 20million+ people that voted for Buhari in 2015, how many millions do you think were youths? We supported Jonathan. We were screaming then that somebody from one of the minority tribes should become President and why only Yoruba or Hausa or Igbo. Well, Jonathan came and made us billions of $$$ poorer. Who to blame? Sowore who during the Yaradua sickness and secrecy era got his Sahara Reporters organization solidly behind Jonathan? Or the Yoruba activists who fought for Jonathan to be made substantive President as dictated by law? You can keep blaming Sowore for the collective mistake of most Nigerians hoping for a better life under Buhari. But I'm sure the real reason why you hate Sowore is buried deep in your heart. It's either you know already or you're in denial. On a side note, one advantage of electing Sowore even if he doesn't really perform to expectation is that our youths will now sit up when they see that they aren't too young to vie for the presidency of this nation. Then, the political class will commit class suicide. |

[quote author=OfoIgbo post=66501202] Let me set a few records straight. You mean following the dictates of a President already in a coma or even dead for all we knew? Jonathan has always been timid and sheepish. Most people mistook it for humility. Now we know better. He had real powers as acting President and he could have done a lot with that power. Instead he was acting like someone forced to hold the position. Buhari has ruled Nigeria for more than 4 and half years (a few months short of 5 years), as you must not forget he committed treason against this nation and illegally/corruptly ruled Nigeria for over one and half years before he was toppled by another dictator. May I remind you that it was his stint as the military head of state and his anti corruption stance then that eventually gave Nigerians the mind to look his way in 2015? Are you very aware that had Jonathan performed better there was no way in hell that Nigerians would have voted for a man they'd already rejected at the polls 3 times? Go to the middlebelt, bearing in mind that middlebelters supported Buhari's emergence. Ortom was a major supporter of Buhari. Go there now, and ask him whether he prefers GEJ's or PMB's presidency and see the reply you will get. I think you are mistaking me for a Buhari supporter. I'm not. He's incompetent as far as I'm concerned. When OBJ was the president, the price of oil was far lower than it is now, yet the economy was fairing far better than it is now. A few months before GEJ left the scene, the price of oil was lower than it is now, so it is not a truism that the price of oil was always above $100 all through his presidency. You said "a few months before he left.." Yet the man spent 6yrs in power earning for most of that time an unprecedentedly high oil revenue never before earned in the history of Nigeria and he still left the Treasury far less than he met it and you're here to defend him? Smh o. With regards to general competence in managing the aspirations of the populace, GEJ was far better than PMB. Go and check the price of a bag or rice and compare with the price during GEJ's period. Interesting that you should mention security as part of the performance of Jonathan. A period when the Nigerian Army was doing "tactical retreat" across Cameroonian border. Wasn't that the time Nigeria lost 7 local government areas to Boko Haram? Lol. Even a British newspaper referred to him as an ineffectual buffoon. Maybe you need to look up the meaning of buffoon. You are talking of the cost of a bag of rice. Is it that you don't understand that if you remove money from a till, there will be less or were you expecting the economy to still be bouyant after the massive looting of the economy by "GEJ and the 40 thieves"? If indeed Jonathan and Okonjo did well, the economy that was built for 5years(according to you) should still withstand any onslaught for at least a year even if all Buhari did as soon as he got there was to loot and pilfer and steal. Hardly had this man got in when the country slipped into recession. Shame on Jonathan and his supporters. Look at the way the lives of middlebelters are being snuffed out, with little or no concern from the presidency. All of a sudden, the president can no longer sack an IGP who clearly disobeyed his order to relocate to Benue, and known Miyetti Allah operatives who have made homicidal statements, allowed to exist in normal society. Of course I don't support Buhari and the number 1 reason is his shielding of his Fulani brothers. For that reason alone he should have been impeached.
Absolutely I agree. There's also corruption in this government and this makes me think Buhari has become a lame duck in his administration.
Great HINDSIGHT bro. With the selections that I made with regards to the 2019 presidential choice, I prefer every single one of them far above Sowore, as I know they are much more likely to appreciate the usefulness of the 1963 constitution in the nation's current political development trajectory. Let me even add Saraki to that list also You guys keep making the same mistake. I keep telling folks from your side of your country that the enemy of your enemy isn't necessarily your friend. All Fayose has done is to shout Buhari up and down and distribute foodstuff to SOME people in Ekiti, but here you are praising him. Obasanjo said of FFK, give him food and he will dance for you. That is the person you want in the seat of power. Okonjo was finance minister under Obasanjo and did well. Fast forward to 3 years later and you see her supervising the worst looting of public resources this country has ever gone through since Independence. And you're propping her up as a potential for presidency. Lol. You now mentioned Saraki. SMH for you. I will feel tainted and dirty if I even type his name one more time on my phone. I'll leave you to dig about him starting from his career as governor of Kwara state. That you'll prefer him to Sowore shows that your animosity towards Sowore is no longer political but personal. I hope you stop being in self denial. 1 Like 1 Share |

5thElement: Well, I hope you still remember the shenanigans by one Aandoaka, who was the Attorney General or thereabout appointed by Yaradua. Didn't you notice that when Jonathan was just the acting president, GEJ couldn't fire him, but once UMYA was declared dead, Aandoaka got fired. This episode alone proves that an acting president still has a bit of a psychological hurdle to scale through, if he wants to act as a substantive president. Add this to the fact that the UMYA family and his close cronies made sure GEJ couldn't see the president physically to ascertain the true state of things, so I cannot blame him for acting "sheepishly" when he was the acting president Buhari has ruled Nigeria for more than 4 and half years (a few months short of 5 years), as you must not forget he committed treason against this nation and illegally/corruptly ruled Nigeria for over one and half years before he was toppled by another dictator. In fact in a few months time, Buhari would have spent more time ruling Nigeria than GEJ. 5thElement: There we go again, reminiscing over a non-existent record. Didn't it occur to you that his stint in 1984 was one of the main reasons, people like me knew he would make an awful president? Why is it that supposed intelligent people like Sowore fell for such a scam, when sound minds clearly saw the danger, and accurately predicted the nature of the danger, as I have mentioned severally in this chain? And he wants to be the president, without being a good judge of character, or allowing good judges of character to guide him in these decisions. I don't know how old you were back then. I was a small boy, but even then I knew great evil had taken over the land. I was never taken in by the huge sentences that were being passed down to known politicians. Once we got to know that Shagari who was the executive president was under a mere house arrest, while his vice, who even became poorer in government and had no executive powers, was locked away in Kirikiri, even as a small boy, my sense of justice was assaulted by that simple act. Sowore couldn't see these things. Today we talk of SAINT LOOTERS, which mirrors closely, what I have always known of Buhari, and I have never met him. 5thElement: So Bokoharam occupied 7 (let me even increase it to 10) lgas during GEJ's period. Well Fulani herdsmen are causing havoc in many STATES of the federation. Each state has very many lgas, so go figure. So I still stand by my opinion that security-wise, we are effed both in terms of professionalism/effectiveness and geopolitical representation. Lest I forget, bokoharam is still causing havoc in Nigeria, three years on. 5thElement: So a British paper called him an ineffectual buffoon, and I called PMB a PAEDOPHILIC DULLARD. I have even created one for Sowore, which I will launch soon Now, getting back on your till analogy. Why is it that once PMB came in, that was when the economy collapsed and our currency value collapsed along with it? Why didn't it happen in GEJ's second year in government? Why didn't it happen anytime within the 16 year rule of PDP? But immediately PMB came in, all hell broke loose. The simple truth was that PMB came in and didn't appoint ministers to run the affairs of the nature. He left the nation's economy on autopilot and even undermined the economy by making public statements that tended to raise concerns with foreign investors, which in turn, led to huge capital flight and foreign exchange depletion. I do not believe you are still playing the Buhari card of always blaming GEJ for his failures, 3 years down the line. |
