[s]Nairalanders abroad: Please educate your people at home on the next election and the need to vote out cluelessness.

I am happy at the level of enlightenment and zeal to move the nation forward; to change the course of our great country and salvage what is left of it. It is a plain truth that the enlightened and educated has differentiated light from darkness and are ever willing to save this nation through the ballot box. Enough of this massive corruption that has made us a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone but us.

However, a large population of this country is still enmeshed in sentiments; these are the people that will vote out of religious and tribal sentiments. They abound in leaps and bounds. They will prefer a christian anti-christ to be their president rather than a performing muslim. They are brain-washed with sentiments which they swallow hook, line and sinker.

I hereby call on all the nairalanders in diaspora to pass the message to their loved ones at home. As you send back those hardcurrencies, inform them that they can be independent of you when they chose a better leader for this country. Educate them on the need to salvage this country and the need for change.

As for me and my family, we are voting General Buhari.

To make Nigeria great is a task we must all do![/s]

Prominent against these charges was an act that amounted to nothing less than judicial murder, the execution of a citizen under a retroactive decree. Does Decree 20 ring a bell? If not, then, perhaps the names of three youths - Lawal Ojuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26) do. To put it quite plainly, one of those three – Ogedengbe - was executed for a crime that did not carry a capital forfeit at the time it was committed. This was an unconscionable crime, carried out in defiance of the pleas and protests of nearly every sector of the Nigerian and international community – religious, civil rights, political, trade unions etc. Buhari and his sidekick and his partner-in-crime, Tunde Idiagbon persisted in this inhuman act for one reason and one reason only: to place Nigerians on notice that they were now under an iron, inflexible rule, under governance by fear.

"Sai" in hausa could mean, unless, must be, or it has to be. The latter meaning is in this case more applicable to the campaign.

NSNA:
Imagine this international news bulletin

Nigeria has a new president
A military man who overthrew an elected goverment some 31 years ago and has been in Nigerian politics since 1976 is in 2014 the new president of Nigeria ......

It is pure shame.

btw Goodluck is not a better alternative


When you hear people singing praise of Buhari or Jonathan when there are so many great Nigerians worldwide, you tend to resign to the fact that Nigerians deserve what they get.

who wants to turn Nigeria to Dubai?

Wow! this is so touching.

I have watched numerous Christmas Ads in my life time but this one stands out. This Ad to me portrays the true meaning of Christmas, it's not just about the gifts, the foods, the decorations, the religious angle to it, but it's about reaching out to people, getting together with love ones, family, friends, strangers and even sometimes enemies, people you might not get to meet or see all through the year or life time. It's about being caring and sharing with those we love and those that might be less fortunate in the society.

If all these can be done during Christmas, why can't we consciously keep doing them all through the year? I'm sure this world would be a better place if we all in our little ways imbibe this spirit of Christmas in our daily lives.

Meanwhile this Ad was based on true life story. Yes! it did happen during WW1 in 1914, see link here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_truce


I wish you all Merry Christmas!!!

OP
You made me had a teary eye. Why do we fight wars in this world? Why are we so power crazy? Why cant we just find a way to live together.
