MrRitchie:
you get sense at all so?
Is Atiku debating because of Buhari?

Is like you apply for a job which is currently occupy by someone and they need interview you and the person currently occupying that position but because the person didn’t show up you decided not to go ahead with the interview too. Are you not supposed to have sense by now.

This guys are all there for there own interest and not that one Nigeria at large, the only person who has Nigeria at heart to some extent is BUHARI take it or leave it!

in America, france the debates are always all about the the seating president and top candidate or opposite side. Reason why he want to continue and opposite side giving reason why he shouldn't.

Who will atiku debate with ??

U no nothing, cables is contorlling buhari and they know his not capable for debate and you want to vote then in to continue... World poverty capital, killings hardship, insecurity...name 2 clean person in buhari cabinet?

Transparency international report that Nigeria is more corrupt then ever.

You just lost my vote , atiku!!

Your comparison holds no water,it can more be compared to a royal rumble WWE match where the defending champion who is the custodian of the belt refuses to show up at the ring, how do we get the belt for a new winner,a total boycott of the debate by all contestants would have been the ideal thing to do especially after been called political dwarfs,going on with the debate afterall smacks of low self esteem and Atiku has my respect for the boycott,shows he is a patriot,Its nothing but total disdain towards fellow contestants and countrymen, however the incumbent has been challenged again to choose a time,date and venue convenient and let's hope he will be honourable enough to honour the invite.

Maxymilliano:
Atiku showed up. He owned his decision not to debate to the absence of the incumbent.

He apologised.

Nigerians should face Buhari who didn’t show up and would never apologize.

I hope we can forget PDP and APC to vote candidates that participated in this debate that's first way to keep Nigeria work again also change APC is demonstrating about . Our destines are in our hands we shouldn't depend on political party let use our PVC wise and disappoint those who have disappointed in this debate also surprise the world by electing visionary lead.

buharitill2023:
buhari is the defending champion, he need not to debate with dwarfs including the major dwarf thief atiku,
meanwhile, what they all said concerning the fight against corruption, security and economy are right and what they said is what buhari is already doing,
which render the debate unnecessary.

He should still have come.

KayJayTobz:
Are we Nigerians not tired!!! have we not been used long enough by these aged dimwits?? can't we just think Outside the box for once?? say NO to PDP, say NO to APC

My bro..the real people with PVCs are the almajiris in tge north that make up say 60% of the northern votes. No matter what the elites in the other region do, their votes(the Almajiris ) at the end of the day swings the election where they want.

handie:
To me, Atiku goofed on this debate issue. A look into past debates will reveal incumbents hardly attends. Yeah, we know majority of voters have made up their minds on their preferred candidates but still there are fence sitters who are still undecided on their choice of candidates and his excuse is just not tenable. Dude, this is not a competion against Buhari. This was a chance to present your plan and ideas to those you want and votes and plan to govern. As for Buhari, that one no just know book and he no wan disgrace himself. In conclussion, the attitude of the two 'leading candidates' leaves a lot to be desired and it shows they don't give a hoot about us.
Just shut up. Was the debate a personal debate between Atiku and Buhari or a platform to present his ideas and solutions to problems bedeviling Nigerians? You are one of the reasons the Atikus and d Buharis will always be arrogant. The sooner the PDP realise the 2019 elections ain't just about trying to capture power from d APC for d sake of it, the better for us all.

u don't knw what u saying, Johnathan did while buhari did not,... Get ur facts right

ogawisdom:


Atiku did the right thing, everyone will either vote Atikuobi or Buhari, why should he debate irrelevant candidates that won't win their LGA against him. Even if u put a monkey as pdp candidate he will easily win those irrelevant debator, the only opponent of atiku is Buhari. It's party politics baby.

The debators are irrelevant bc of their useless party put any of them as pdp candidate and he or she becomes instant hit

He should have still come and convinced Nigerians why they should vote him instead of 'wasting' their votes on the other candidates. Buhari at this time is like the defending champion, the people jostling for his seat should be able to tell Nigerians why we should vote them over the others. But then again, it a pride thing; the 2 big candidates in pride simply told Nigerians to go screw themselves.

好的

We have no doubt about Atiku plans for Nigeria

Just to vote out the heartless man for better Nigeria

biggestmanhood:
buhari is d worst mistake Nigeria ever made

you’re the worst mistake to have ever happened to Nigeria (for being a Nigerian without sense)

They Have A Right To Be Fustrated With The Duo Of Atiku & Buhari's Absence.But In Reality,this Election Is About Buhari Vs Atiku.If You Think Otherwise Suit Yourself

opedaydydx9:
u don't knw what u saying, Johnathan did while buhari did not,... Get ur facts right

In 2011 when GEJ was very sure of winning Buhari, he didnt bother attending the debate, but Buhari did.

In 2015 when GEJ smelt that his hold on power was shaky, he humbled himself and attended the debate. But Buhari who had gained confidence on his victory arrogantly didnt bother.

2019, once again, Buhari has chosen not to attend. Atiku who also sees himself as victorious has arrogantly ditched the debates.

It won't still change anything those that will vote atiku will still vote him whether he debated or not. Buhari did not debate again GEJ in 2015 guess what he still won. Those that debated cannot win atiku in their LGA so they are irrelevant. Everyone is fully Atikulated already he is the only true Buhari Challenger.

No Muslim will vote any of those Christian southern debators that's why they are useless in this election.

Election is between Buhari n Atiku

XXLDICK:

Shame on you, PDP paid per post nigga.

Buhari stated earlier that he won't show up for the debate. Why did Atiku go to the debate at all because he was already aware Buhari won't show up. He only pulled that stupid trick for his gullible followers like you.

Atiku knows he is no match for the people present at the debate, they would have taken him to the cleaners. He knows that, that is why he is looking for his fellow dullard (Buhari) to debate with.

His flimsy excuse can only fly for dimmits, they are so paper thin and can blow away with the wind.

Why are the majority of Nigerians dumb
Imagine all the presidents that won elections since inception do not attend debate before winning.

In a country like America that has so many smart people, you can never win if you avoid debates.

How can people that claim to be educated or smart vote for any of those two dumb men

Aren't you people ashamed defending stupid people You appear stupider when you do so.

Much as I agree with the principle of most of what you've written (and in fact gave the post a "like", I think you're here before your time. Try to espouse them again in the 22nd/23rd century - your views comparing Nigeria to the US in the realm of politics may just begin to hold some water.

But hey, what do I know?

Thanks for posting, though.

Invalid excuse! Buhari already made his position known through his agent that he won't be attending this debate. Atiku said he will attend, showed up, then disappeared without participating. So I think Atiku's case is worse than Buhari. Buhari said he won't attend and he didn't (no shocker here), but Atiku said he will attend and he did but ran away and didn't participate (shocker). Which is why people were not happy about it. So, Buhari wins again in integrity and transparency.

MahatmaGhandi:


You have said it as it suites you and Atiku saved himself from being ridiculed and attacked by all three candidate. Moghalu, fela and oby are friends of the president. They are being used to split opposition votes, non of them can win elections at this time and they know it. Atiku would not have cared about the gang up as long as Buhari was present to openly show Nigerians who he is.

So he ran away. If he becomes president and there are oppositions like MEND and BOKO HARAM fomenting trouble everywhere, I'm sure he will also run away.

People can only ridicule you if you have something to hide.

He was scared of being asked to give account of 8 years at the presidency with Obasanjo.

He was scared to confront the truth about his ongoing corruption cases in the US (going to the US under Saraki's diplomatic immunity as his aide didn't fool well thinking Nigerians).

He was scared of answering questions about what he intended to do with the economy since his only plan is to "help his friends" as he himself has said.

He was hoping that he would gain traction by attacking Buhari who has dementia and should actually have resigned.

He thought it would be a walk-over for him to debate with a man who has dementia, because it will be just like debating with a five year-old kid.

So when Buhari didn't show, he ran away because the other candidates don't have dementia.

shame on all of those supporting Buhari and Atiku.

May the hunger and starvation loading for the next 4 years if any of the two are voted in be abundant in their families.

baliyubla:
Immediately the date for the debates were released, everyone knew the dullard would abscond.

If ordinary town halls and Media chats, the demented man can't partake in, there was no chance in the world he was gonna participate in the debate.

Even in America, the debates are always all about the two leading candidate, so there was no need for Atiku to debate yesterday when it became certain the dullard ran.

The Dullard should accept the Atiku challenge and debate him anywhere. Even in the wardrobe the cabal are hiding him.

when Buhari challenged GEJ last tenure debate did he attend

hollywater:
Gbam

did Gej debate during his time

I didn't watch the debate. But I can't remember anybody saying olawepo hashim and sowore were present.

Stimulus is just one idiot why all the notice from PDP when its candidate won't participate... I have a feeling he was present at the venue yesterday because the moderator called him before a paper was passed to him... Buhari can be excused as a sitting president non of the previous have attended and moreover he will be a point of attack from those that don't know how is is been done and those who want to show they have something to present..

Nigerians youth are cowards and easily manipulated even when they dead ..buhari was right ..and others ..lazy youths

@MBuhari didn't show up for 2014 debate but still won...

You want Atiku to debate candidates that cannot win their wards?

This is politics, not telemundo.���

Excellent comment.

It was obvious Atiku was looking for a fellow dullard. All Nigerians (friends and foes of Buhari) knew he was too dull to attend

What surprises me is the fact Atiku can swindle them

No Boss, He just didn't want to take unnecessary flaks that would give the incumbent undue advantage, In a debate everyone takes flaks. Buhari chickened out so as to leave Atiku to generate the press that his spin masters would use until the elections but Atiku saw through it and as a matter of strategy left the venue. Atiku is capable of organising town hall meetings if it was just to sell himself to Nigerians. BON should have insisted on the incumbent being there, trust me Atiku would have stayed not minding the gang up.
We should give the man some credit since he, inspite of the jet lag made himself available for scrutiny and has promised to make himself available again when ever Buhari is ready to do same.
