The Nation

National leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) are believed to upset with the party’s Presidential Campaign Council over the controversy surrounding the secondary school certificate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari.
The Nation reports that northern leaders are unhappy with the campaign council for ‘ridiculing’ Buhari over the school certificate issue when the facts are obvious. The Nation stated further that the campaign has backfired on President Goodluck Jonathan and may affect his chances at the polls.
“I am aware that most PDP leaders and members from the North are just unhappy because the little goodwill for the party in the region may be completely lost,” an unnamed northern leader said.
“Already, the PDP is fast losing ground in the North since the attacks on Buhari’s personality and credentials started. Some of those who have been sympathetic to PDP are now having a rethink. Some PDP leaders are already calling for a ceasefire on this certificate matter because it is portraying the party and its candidate, President Goodluck Jonathan, as desperate,” the PDP leader claimed.
Another respected PDP leader said: “Some of our leaders and members in the north are angry. They are trying to use the certificate saga to reopen old prejudices by the South that Northerners are largely uneducated or without certificates. In 1979, they did it to ex-President Shehu Shagari by deriding him as a mere Grade II teacher. This type of politics will certainly not help our party at all. We have been making representation to the PDP leadership to halt this hate campaign,” he asserted.

The PDP may also have breached Section 31(3-5) of the Electoral Act for joining issues with Buhari on the certificate matter.
Sources at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said the PDP should have laid its complaints between December 25, 2014 and January 1, 2015.The commission, in its timetable for the general elections fixed December 25, 2014 to January 1, 2015 for claims and objections. It was learnt that the PDP has failed to comply with three issues in Section 31 of the Electoral Act.
These are: Refusal to comply with the seven-day period for claims and objections; Failure to apply to the INEC for a copy of Buhari’s nomination form.
With the PDP yet to file any application before a High Court on Buhari’s credentials, Section 31(3-6) says: “The commission shall within seven days of the receipt of the personal particulars of the candidate publish same in the constituency where the candidate intends to contest the election.“A person may apply to the commission for a copy of the nomination form affidavit and any other document submitted by a candidate at an election and the commission shall, upon the payment of a prescribed fee, issue person with a certified copy of the documents within 14 days.
“Any person who has reasonable grounds to believe that any information given by a candidate in the affidavit or any document submitted by that candidate is false may file a suit at the Federal High Court, High Court of a state or FCT against such person seeking a declaration that the information contained in the affidavit is false.“If the court determines that any of the information contained in the affidavit of any document submitted by that candidate is false, the court shall issue an order disqualifying the candidate from contesting the election.”
A highly-placed source said: “The PDP is confused because there is no record showing that either the party or any of its leaders has applied for a copy of the nomination form of Buhari from the INEC. Instead, the party is just playing to the gallery in the media to heat up the polity. This is unfortunate for the nation’s political environment.
“As I am talking to you, the PDP is yet to comply with Section 31 of the Electoral Act on issues against Buhari. Meanwhile, the United States Army War College has opened up on how Gen. Buhari earned a Diploma from the elite institution.The testimony by the college also confirmed that Buhari obtained a higher certificate beyond the minimum requirement of the West African School Certificate (WASC) required to be the nation’s President.

We didn't save enough when we had plenty. We wasted what had been saved by past administrations. We paid off almost all our debts when had a lot of savings. Our budget increased by 60% from 2008 to 2014, but 75% of the budget was for chop-money-recurrent expenditure. BTW, oil dropped from $117 p/b to $37 p/b btw 2008-09, but we survived because we had saved a lot and had little or no debt.
Fast forward to 2015: ECA depleted, our external debt has grown by 60%- which was primarily used to fund-recurrent expenditure/chop money, External reserve going down, recurrent expenditure growing while capital expenditure is shrinking.
BTW, Russia had close to $500bn saved up- which is about 25% of its total GDP. While Naija had about $40bn saved up-- which is about 6% of its GDP. Russian invested in infrastructure while Naija didn't.. Power in Naija went from 4000MW down to 2900MW.. BTW, both FG& state governors are culpable-/ FG got about 55% while governors got about 45%.

Honest truth, we didnt save enough for the raining days. The same cbn governor that said devaluation is the worse thing that can happen to a country, he's the same person that went ahead with devaluation. The man is confuse now

The parallel market closed at N205/ Dollar. Who knows what it will close with tomorrow. The CBN governor policies are not working.

[quote author=datibo post=30034784]u don't know wah u saying. I argue with economist like myself. no time. chao[/quote\

You dont need to be an economist to know that our economy is import dependent.

I am sure the car you drive is not INNOSON car,if you have to buy another car now, am sure you will buy tokubo car. if you are buying from US, no be dollars u go send, and if u want to buy from dealer here, be sure that u will pay more now because na dollar dem use buy am

datibo:
u don't know wah u saying. I argue with economist like myself. no time. chao

Mr. Economist, for your information, Dollar is now N205. By tomorrow morning it will go up further because politicians are in desperate need of dollars now, lets watch, u will understand practical better than the theory u did in school

datibo:
First tym I will be insulting someone in nairaland. You are a big fool, an idiot. instead of u to concentrate on d topic u keep on envying the Igbos. continue envying us, we will keep on moving higher. I am Sure u don't av anything to contribute. even d owner of the thread doesn't know what he s talking about. he s definitely not an economist. the only time our exchange rate will favor us is when we start patronising our own products. let us continue to buy foreign products and soon our exchange rate will reach 500.

Oga , i know wat am talking about. Nigerians love to buy homemade stuff, but ask yourself, how many tins do we produce in this country, the LG or samsung TV u r using, is it Nigeria made, The problem is weak foreign reserve. Even with the drop in oil price, it wont have been this bad assuming we have been saving for raining day,

Soon u will realise the effect of this N200/dollar, just wait till next week

Purej:
Do u realise that, Russia economy is facing serious sanctions, enough to cripple their economy

If we have a robust foreign reserve, it wont be this bad. do u knw the effect of N200/dollar on our economy

Marotzke:
Russia have used eighty five billion Us dollars to defend the rouble, yet the currency have lost almost 60% of its value.

Elementary economics will tell you that a diversified economy stands a better chance of withstanding shocks due to currency fluctuations that economies that are based on a single source of foreign exchange.

Do u realise that, Russia economy is facing serious sanctions, enough to cripple their economy

Marotzke:
The mumu here is you. Did you bother to find out why currencies of oil exporting countries are falling with respect to the US dollar? In your rush to make a political capital out of a serious situation, you have exposed your congenital Idiocy. Ode.

Ode , olodo, Obo, ole, Atole, Monkey, yeye man.

Always supporting the wrong side. su su ode

Akon419:
Here in Russia , the same thing,even worse . Local currency is loosing value on a daily bases

Oga, Russia's problem is due to sanctions . Nigeria's foreign reserve is very weak now. thats y she cant defend her currency against dollar. stop being sentimental.

We have the opportunity to save when dollars was rossy, but our government didnt, they tought it will continue like dat

Curlieweed:
My Bro,

I don tire for these Mumuharistas oh. I wonder why Apeeshit is so attractive to retards. Every major oil exporting country including Canada and Norway (not even talking about Russia here) had currencies losing strength against the U.S. Dollar.

I can see why they're so sympathetic to Buhari's inability to pass WASC.

i didnt post this topic because of pdp or apc thing, u have just politicise this, so u are happy that dollar is now N200. u have forgotten that, assuming Nigeria has robust foreign reserve, she will be in a better position to defend the country's currency against the dollar.

Go back to elementary economics, Ode na him u be

aljharem:
Too many mumus in this country. So Russia and other countries should sack their apex governor because of world oil prices drop.

In fact you call for the head of our past HOS such as buhari obj etc that didn't diversify our economy.

JONATHAN is trying to do that now and yet you paid apc goons can't see that.

Smh

i dont think you understand the topic. all u have on your head is pdp and jonathan. proper MUMU

It is a surprising event at the parallel market today when dollar rose to N205 per dollar(updated) due to shortage in supply vis-a-vis huge demand for it in the country. The CBN boss has failed the nation and should resign voluntarily. All policies formulated by the CBN governor has failed. There are clear indication that the dollar may further go up, throwing the economy into total disarray.

Nigeria economy is an import dependent economy. Car dealers, boutique owners, oil and gas companies, pharmaceutical companies, Agricultural firms, banks, Nigeria military(purchase of weapon), and even corrupt politicians e.t.c need dollars for their day to day operations, hence the increase in demand for dollars.

The policy of the central bank governor has centered on reducing the volume of dollars in circulation, forgetting that we are 90% import dependent country.Just yesterday, JP Morgan had placed Nigeria on a negative index watch on its Government Bond Index (GBI-EM), threatening to completely remove the country from the GBI-EM if there is no sufficient dollar liquidity in the interbank market to facilitate entry and exit of investors from the nation’s financial market.

JP Morgan said: “If we are unable to verify sufficient liquidity in Nigeria’s spot forex and local treasury bond market it will trigger a review for removal.

The CBN policy to reduce dollars availability in the economy has led to an increase in the rate at which dollars is exchanged for naira. This cbn Governor lacks the skill to manage the country's apex bank, He should please resign from this position and return to Zenith Bank, where he's profile is good at mobilizing deposit for the bank.

There are indications that vendors especially in the northern part of Nigeria are afraid of selling punch newspaper, over fear of being attacked due to the advertorial sponsored by fayose( the stomach infrastructure governor) today. I think the Managing Director of the newspaper should apologise to the families of those whose name were mentioned.

i didnt bother reading ur writeup, it will pay u more to spend more time writing business proposals than dis rubbish writeup.

Go and write it down, I'm so sure that femi fani kayode will crawl to GMB and beg him for forgiveness, likewise Reuben abati.

A close look at the pattern with which PDP is campaigning, it's so obvious that there is High tension among high ranks in PDP , knowing fullY well that, should they lose this election, It will be serious SEGBELE FOR THEM.

This boy, nah crase dey worry you

back to sender.

Can somebody ask gej how long it took him to build school.

Buhari took over from a corrupt govt. And his achievements in about 16months gej on the other hand could not achieve same in 2 years. So there is no need for comparison.

JONATHAN IS FULL OF LIES. The funniest thing is that, he knows deep in his mind that, he's deceiving people.

If this man is not voted out by next month, i'm sorry for Nigerians

can u imagine , Jonathan aide de camp (The soldier standing behind him) said 300 years, when his boss said they(opposition) promised to send people to jail and jonathan too said 300, Is that right of a military officer.



PLS NIGERIA ARMY TAKE NOTE

many around the globe are saying it is his best speech ever


perhaps he needs to be taking more ogogoro

op perhaps you can get contract to supply ogogoro since u know so much about it
[/color]

Join the wise Nigerians, join to save this country from bad and corrupt leaders,

Nigerians are wise now, they know who's telling lies about their achievements. Even in FCT, he did nothing to improve the existing infrastructure.

With all the money realized from oil, we deserve a country like Dubai where all citizens enjoy from the oil wealth. Yeye leader we got at the center.

na igbo man u be now, am nt surprise, am expecting more senseless talk from u, ode olodo, ole otole, monkey, yeye man

A Careful look at Jonathan during his speech at the pdp rally held in Lagos today, shows that he was actually high, he couldnt have said those things with a sensible mind

Buhari said this few days ago, and the NNPC GMD denied and attacked him, God bless the man that expose this secret. I hope the clueless president will not send the I.G.P to block him from entering his office tomorrow

Doyin Okupe is very stupid for comparing jonathan to JESUS CHRIST.

I think the anti-graft agency should look into this case. Most of my colleagues, friends and neighbours that bought d album conplained about the same thing. People are really dissapointed in this fraudulent act of D'bang.
