. the north &all need to wake up and realise that soon the oil wont be available to maintain their laziness.

word... may people develop listening ears and understanding hearts before it is too late. What if crude oil price suddenly drop to less than $10/barrel.

SaiBuharii:
Secondly, this is a critical decision in the history of Nigeria, it is a decision that determines whether the much needed CHANGE will come up, for the uninformed and enemy of progress, they will tag APC a confused party, meanwhile this is part of the democracy we are talking of...unlike what we have presently where Sambo is a puppet, APC has hyped and really showed that the post of a vice president could determine who wins an election, could determine how the country is being run. Could determine the strength of the government, so expecting them to wake up overnite and bring up a candidate is stupidity on their part. As a Nigerian, I am happy there is actually brainstorming sessions to select who the candidate is...that is a positive omen, it shows things were not planned and being acted out.

So all these days Sambo has been a puppet VP? He has not influenced any meaningful project so far in the North, not to talk of his Kaduna State? But we read yesterday that one of the best railway in Africa is about to be completed for Kaduna State.

Why will these northerners be unrepentant liars?

fitzmayowa:
This is not a secret, every nigerian knows the top brass of the nigerian army are corrupt...

Imagine a GOC locking himself up in his office while sending troops to die, just to continue "eating" the money meant for the gallant soldiers...and yet the same corrupt army chiefs court marshal troops for desertion

I see no reason why badeh, minimah and rest have not been ordered by the C in C to relocate to chibok,konduga and other cities captured by BH and stay there until BH is defeated...since they are more interested in? stealing than winning the war...SMH

you made a point... I will also support relocation of major military headquarters to the troubled states and total war against corruption within military circle.

Even though the story looks like compilation of false epistle. Again it is from Sahara... which has been noted to be biased and willing to make money out of falsehood. Much news of this broadcasting organization is not real.

holatin:
True word.
Some are already dead.
Some will return with pregnant.
Some will return as a psycho patient
Some will return as serial killer
While some will return and become a wall flower.



Jonathan may God reward you of where you lead Nigeria to.

Buhari pls come and clean our tears.

Some people will never stop to ridicule North sha... Thinking there is a sense in what they have done so far. At times they will say Jonathan has hired militants from his place to destroy the North by terrorism. All they could do is blackmailing... all the terrorists are pure northerner with other foreign fighters that have much in common with the North. You better stop deceiving self and others like you.

sheer replica of boko haram mentality. Pity the north

Celepope:
This man is right.When i discovered that majority of what that nasty old man wrote were all lies was when he said he never came up with the idea of Third term, that it was the idea of some Governors.If truly he is a democrat as he claim, why didn't he reject the proposition made by his fictitious Governors on tenure elongation? We all know that is the norm with majority of African myopic leaders. I am surprised that he didn't throw more light on the Snipers he alleged that GEJ was training in his 'Book of Lies'.Obasanjo knows how to work on Nigerians' psyche knowing fully well how majority of Nigerians are gullible and easily forget the past.My prayer every morning is that God should expose and disgrace every individual or groups that doesn't mean well for our great nation.

I thought OBJ would see the grace for living longer as an added advantage to link bridges and mend xters for greater strength in diversity among various tribes of Nigeria. But it is unfortunate that recent actions are a show of mischief. I had expected greater discipline and decorum in him.

How do we describe his present situation? That whenever he talks in public many people will send him back home to go and learn how to say the truth. Sending an old man back home to go and learn looks somehow.

That's good. Hope more will come. Good Nigerians hail Jonathan for his labour of love and good work done so far. He has really tried and leaving good legacies despite all efforts of saboteurs

espn:
wat nonsense is dis 1 saying! Ur brain is nt functioning well..thinkn upside down!

espn or what? Get out of the wood and stop thinking upside down as you have stated. It takes right senses to understand and reply my post appropriately.

ayindejimmy:
Can you force them when they're not interested? Let those that want the job go for it.
Choosing people not prepared is what got Us here

The choice is theirs right to do what pleases them, but In case they are frustrated out. This Nigerian politics where the unexpected can happen at any time.

The game is on...
We are watching...

very good of them. But they must not relax on kingdom thing (heaven) as they are trying to bring the world together for unity and peace.

Kudos to the guys for making history. May God continue to strengthen them.

Instead of going on dangerous path why cant they move to another parties, contest and win the expected posts. Thank God many are the vacant positions presently in many parties

Dbboy:
That beautiful.
The insurgency might be bad but it is sure bringing large development to the army.

you mean Nigeria has developed to the level of exploiting ability in disability. If so that is good, very soon Nigeria will be like western countries and the Americans which improve on technology and find success out of all challenges.

when they have turned our expectation upside down... I will not stop asking why neither Tinubu nor Fasola took part in the apc presidential primay.

Tinubu or Fasola should have emerged as the presidential aspirant while searching should have been for anyone among Buhari, Kwakwaso or Atiku as the vice president

oliy24:
which means you just confirm Jonathan is incompetent, clueless and daft. do you even know he was advice by obasanjo on how to tackle boko haram and he turned deaf ears. do even know vigilante killed more boko haram than Nigeria soldiers and jonathan stopped them from fighting bokoharm. why is he declaring state of emergency even when it seems not to work. just because He is using it to loot Nigeria money, He loan more money to buy minitary arms and yet our soldiers complains of no war wares. Bleep I am wise now, Jonathan is too daft to fool me and my family. I vote for change

My heart beats a little faster wherever I read the latest vocab of many selfish Nigerians - incompetent, daft and clueless against their president. Yet they have no solution. If you ask them what is solution... all they have crammed to say is Buhari. pls what is buhari when thousands of lives and properties have been wasted? Many people are as clueless as clueless itself. Maybe they mean to import buhari ooo. I find their responses difficult to understand.

hadevic:
hmmmmm pls is he nt our president and commander in chief of armed forces? So he doesn't have the power to elect those he trusted as security chiefs U said a serving commissioner of police escorted Kabiru sokoto out of police custody, so he couldn't be arrested n prosecuted? I guess d commissioner is more strong dan him or what? PLS UNDERSTAND WOT I M TRYING TO PASS ACROSS, IT ISN'T A MUST FOR OUR NXT PRESIDENT TO B BUHARI BUT WE DON'T NEED A WEAK AND CLUELESS MAN AS OUR PRESIDENT COME 2015....LET NOT RELIGION AND ETHNIC GROUP BECLOUD UR SENSE OF REASONING. NOW MY LAST QUESTION PLS TELL ME THE EXACT TIME THAT BOKOHARAM BOMBED AND KILL IN KADUNA WEN YAKOWA WAS D GOVERNOR COS I NEVER HEARD DIS B4........THANKS.

I am yet to get something very clearly from various descriptions of being clueless and weak of President Jonathan. Many believe he should have repeated what OBJ did to the militants and Odi communities when he levelled the whole communities. Probably he should have made himself too a hero if he had repeated similar action against the three northern States where terrorism emerged and spread to other States.

I would like contribution from someone who can compare btw the more deadly activities of terrorism and the militancy, and recommend suitable actions. Many are fed up with cluelessness and failure of both Gej and all northern leaders. I included northern leaders because all they could do is either to criticise or delay in providing solution(s) if they have any.

If they have the solution and delay for almost four years, only to come up now and sound solution within few weeks if one of their own becomes the president means those leaders know much about the insurgency.

All this dragging issues in and out without leaving a solution shows many Nigerians claiming to know many things are more clueless and ignorant.

Help at Journey's End
Lots of issues come to the minds as people advance in age and get closer to the end of life. At times individuals have struggled to overcome life challenges the way best known to them, seeking or without seeking divine intervention. God created the life for a purpose and He wants all people to understand His purpose for their lives. Psalm 71:18 - When I am old and gray-headed, O God, forsake me not, until I have showed they strength unto this generation, and thy power to everyone that is to come. We have the followings for discussion: Aging with Faith in God; Loosing Loved Ones and Leaving a Legacy.

Aging with Faith in God: People can maintain faith in God if they know Him as the Creator and the One they must honour all the days of their lives. We must acknowledge that life is short and should be lived well because all the days spent will be accounted for. We should be conscious of the realities associated with aging and old age; the stages involve some difficulties, but by keeping faith in God things become easier ( Ecclesiastes 12:1-7). As we age life slows down on us and we become less active. But the strength retained in serving God during the youthful years will sustain individuals when they are full of age. Young people are encouraged not to delay in their decision to live for God. We should be conscious of the present situation, the next moment may not provide any opportunity.

All stages of life are not a waste to Christians. God wants His people to remain fruitful throughout their lives (Psalm 92:12-15). Believers must get themselves planted in the house of God. They must see life beyond human perspective, which seems to be longer. But life is very short from eternal perspective. People planted in the house of God will live to please Him and bear good fruits until their old age. There are many ways people can serve God in their old age (Luke 2:36-38; Titus 2:2-5). There is pleasure in serving God at such stage.

Loosing Loved Ones: Loss of lifelong partner causes weeping and mourning because it is associated with termination of a relationship and feeling of loneliness (Genesis 23:1-4). Great comfort is still available in mourning for those who are in God (Matthew 5:4). Christians are blessed during the time of mourning because God is their comforter. He cares about the pain and sorrow associated with mourning. Christians understand that there is hope for the departed soul in Christ. Therefore they should not mourn like people without hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13&14). Departed souls in Christ will resurrect with Christ in glory (Romans 8:9-11). They will meet again in heaven.

Leaving a Legacy: Christians should understand that the greatest legacy they can leave is a spiritual legacy which is possible if they live God-centered life (Psalm 71: 5-9, 17,18). If God is involved in a situation the rest will be easier. He gives grace to those who believe in Him and fills their mouths with testimonies as they praise and honour Him. God is faithful no matter the circumstances of life.

Spiritual legacies are the heritage of faith that Christians must pass on to their children, grandchildren and others. Life of Christians is like embarking on a race that requires spiritual exercises to continue on the right track. Glory and honour await those who finish the race well. Those who drop out will loose eternal life. As difficult as the race was for Apostle Paul he has this to say at the end, "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith (2 Timothy 4:6-8 ). To God be the glory. Lesson texts: Gen 23:1-4; Ps 71:5-18; 92:12-15; Eccl 12:1-7; Matt 5:4; 1 Thess 4:13&14; 2 Tim 4:6-8

Why will these northerners believe it is when buhari becomes the president that boko haram terrorism will come to an end? What if he fails at the election again. Will they pray for continuity of destruction of lives and properties in the lands?

feel like showing wow!

OBJ ... Baba he get as he be... Always in action since...

I remember when I was a soldier!

But now I am humble and gentle ... whether he could be saying this at present.

@topic
There's no way to know for sure and a lot of religious people will not want to explore the origin of their faith cos it will shake the very fabric of the belief system that they hold dear.

how?
explore some

No religion or denomination can be judged as the best The best one is that which helps you to develop perfect heart in serving God and maintain right attitudes to all people. At the judgement God will not judge you based on your relationship with him alone but also on your relationships with others.

Your worship of God shall be tested by how you have related with all people... whether with right and clean heart or dirty and evil heart.

Jesus called our attention to doing this in many verses of the New Testament. It is when you have fulfilled what God requires of you that he will build you and provide for all you need as his Church.

with the global dimension of terrorism, I think the only option we have is to be our brother's keeper and unite against the terrorists, no matter what they believe or their religion is. those dangerous elements are trying to spread to and wreak havoc anywhere whenever it is possible.

The Muslim world should check the evil destroying their religion. Even in Saudi those devils may not spear anyone in a matter of years ahead. Or what meaning should we give to the fresh crime here.

May God save the world.

Hardly also you find babies they are rearing under harsh and dirty environments falling sick. Their children are also as hard and immune as they are. They are like having excess of one xter when the other is weakened or rendered useless mysteriously.

It seems like many people are not aware of or don't pay much attention to mobile transactions in Nigeria. Is it because publicity is poor, charges are too much or people are not just interested?

By now many people should have been familiar with mobile transactions as they are with their phone credits.

rexoluj:
After Mohammadu Buhari emerged the All Progressives Congress(APC) candidate for Nigeria’s presidential election in 2015, the next move is to choose a running mate. Series of meetings are currently being held by APC party leaders to come up with the best running mate for him.

Here is a list of possible front-runners being speculated:
Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, former Attorney-General of Lagos State
Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, the Rivers State governor
Mr. Babatunde Fashola, the Lagos State governor
Mr. Adams Oshiomhole, the Edo State governor
Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the immediate past Ekiti State governor
Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora, former Lagos East Senator
Senator (Prof.) Ajayi Boroffice, serving Ondo State Senator
Mr. Wale Edun, former Lagos State Commissioner
Mr. Supo Sashore, former Attorney-General of Lagos State
Mrs Sharon Ikeazor, National Women Leader of All Progressives Congress (APC)

incomplete list... remaining someone... a trusted Nairalander - man or woman of proven xters. Until this is done I reserve a comment.

headboyprince:
I saw the news thay say 37 killed today at bomb blast at mr biggs
See what the GEJ is saying right now in the press
Iam fell like unsitting GEJ NOW because he is not capable of rulling naija
See more at
<<<www.naijacomedyzone.

so it is GEJ that is carrying the bombs and blowing some people and locations?

I think enlightened people should be wiser than those joining the fools to spew rubbish. Those who are educated should have known the aims of terrorists and why it has been so difficult to weed them out of Nigeria... Religion... Tribes... Political/Economic affiliations for selfish interests (within and outside the country), and lastly why are those terrorists the people of the North? ... Their foolishness will be like Jonathan that hates them is still using them to kill themselves! Wow. The North gets many things wrong. We must say the truth.

If Jonathan is the excuse for terrorism in the North, that means all they want there is to get him out to satisfy their hunger for power.

Finally, finally, finally

Atiku 954 = 15.88%

Buhari 3,430 = 57.09%

Kwankoso 974 = 16.21

Sam 10 = 0.17%

Okorocha 624 = 10.34%

Void votes 16 = 0.27%

...........

Jonathan ....

others ....

May God never allow anyone who has contributed to the present state of insecurity of Nigeria to be the next president

May God give grace to whoever means well for rapid transformation and development of Nigeria.

The general public have their say and compassion. But the Generals have their ways. From Ibb to Obj and to Gmb... these birds of the same feathers have leant to be their brother's keepers whereas members of the public are left with the option to be their brother's haters.

People of Nigeria have never ceased insulting themselves on politicians who are like 100% protecting themselves.
