This will further aid in the quest for credible elections : http://businessdayonline.com/NG/index.php/news/76-hot-topic/20481-jega-directs-presiding-officers-to-paste-election-results-at-polling-units .

Jega directs results of every polling unit to be pasted for all to see. This will stop thugs like Ngige and Andy Uba from conniving with(and at times threatening) returning officers to 'return' in their favor.

[quote author=bk.babe97y link=topic=645803.msg8129479#msg8129479 date=1302824534]"ROGUOS" Leaders?! [/quote]Maybe she meant Roguish

Kasiem: Ngige is in no way being considered an option? And he shamelessly wants to defie my state with Asiwaju Company of Nigeria? Amadioha gbalikwa ya elu

Ngige is just a common thug just like the other one, Andy Uba. They think they can beat the system by running ahead to announce results of inconclusive polls in their own favor. The other one Andy Uba, even had a certificate of returns handed to him immediately. What a joke. It would be the first time its happening anywhere in the world.

Jega wont be fazed by all that. The elections will be rerun in those areas. Its so painful that the thug, Ngige would blatantly try to tarnish Akunyili's image just like that.

Remii: all these confusions and excessive talks btw CPC and ACN are just working in favour of GEJ. This evening Bakare was on the radio leaking what is supposed to be top secret agreement, stating that ACN requested that he would commit to resigning on June 1, 2011 if elected on CPC / ACN arrangement.

This is really interesting. Goodluck Jonathan never has to do anything. Just stand aside and watch his opposition deal with themselves and pave the way for him. It has been like that for a while now.

Lagosboy: This my whole point, they cannot do it , so why not give consessions and align with CPC to have a say in the center as you have nothing to lose. However not being in the centre, creates much to lose. ACN can only fight for true federalism from the centre , else it will be forever noise making.

[quote author=edo.girl]The CPC cannot do it any more than the ACN can. So why should the ACN make all the concessions? From all that has come out so far from these negotiations, can you please mention one, yes, a single concession that the CPC has offered?

You make out as though somehow the CPC is the senior party, has more clout, or won more seats in last week's elections. Based on what we know so far, ACN is the stronger party. So, why kowtow to a man who does not realise that he's very unpopular in the South West and stands a good chance of losing the elections if he doesn't make reasonable concessions to the ACN.[/quote]Well, since these two cant stand on their own, is it not obvious what will happen on Saturday?

Standing aside and watching them both is a party that is not panicked knowing they can at least stand on their own.

Look here is my point. Justice Ayo salami , under the nigeria law have done the most honourable thing, using science to determine a case, which is not common in africa. Even DNA some nigeria judges do not allow in court.
According to nigeria law, engineers are the only one train to help judges makes this decision.


Look I was among nigeria first research group that did a research on the issue of coverage area in nigeria. And even if you doubt google earth satellite pictures.  Northerners who are engineers can even in nigeria determine if google is telling a lie, with the satellite pictures.


All they need are two equation, which are your well know law of speed and the equation of coverage area. the unique thing about the equation of coverage area is that , one of the element of the equation has distance as one of the element.

And like any equation in the world , you can manipulate this element of distance and make it the subject of the formular in the equation of coverage area. And in the equation of speed, you can also make the distance the subject of the formular. now using simultaneous equations, you can resolve this.


Look now if we use kano city as an example, the NTA television station has an antenna, that antenna is likely a   omni directional  television antenna. Using a field strength meter, you can use the equation of coverage area and speed to calculate the distance of the edge of the coverage area of any city in nigeria. it is along time , i did this. And by you knowing the end of each of the distance of kano. you can create a shape of the city of kano, which would verify the satellite pictures.




I dont think you understand africa. ethnicity has been the major cause of civil war in africa. we may all be black, but we are different from each other.


Look this is why nigeria would end up in  a civil war. look take for example in the case of lead city university in ibadan. people are saying the minister played the ethnics group. look here is the building of the law department that i got off the internet.  and i have gone through the list of staff. we have ethnic problem my friend in africa. that why we  shoot ourself and kill ourself. we are not the same. this is why we need to remove some part of nigeria.

here is the said building of lead city university , law. that i got off the internet. why on earth would anyone reject this. tribalist or ethnicity is like racism,[/quote]

Goodness ! How in the world does any of this, relate to the topic : Jonathan, Buhari Woo Tinubu?

@nusirat

Your post, especially from the third paragraph down, is wearisome . At least read through the thread. You can start some pages back. All has been said that ought to be said about all the purported  *stella* service that Buhari has given to the Nation. Also all has been said that ought to be said about the alleged wastefulness and imagined inactivity of GEJ.

fxtopedia:
I don't think you are a graduate of any University. LMAO
Can you see your conclusion? Hmmm, would the almajiri start from the UNIVERSITY?

Read this : This also goes hand in hand w[/b]ith his plan to reform the [b]almajiri system to provide education

No where did it imply that the Almajiris were to be started out in Universities. We need to read things through and assimilate before making comments.

Good one aletheia

@deezzle

How does a man whose friends are the Atikus, alams, Otedolas coma across to you guys as someone who will make a difference?

How does a man who parleys and dines with Atikus, IBBS, Ciromas, come across to you as someone to make the difference

do u know how many people die everyday in our ill equipped federal hospitals? did u see how much of an eyesore the hospital where the suleja bomb blast victims were taken was? what would it have taken the pdp led federal government to ewuip hospitals

Jonathan is only 9months in office. All the dilapidated hospitals and other facilities in the country cannot be fixed in 9 months. Fashola that we are all clapping for, has had 4yrs.

Otedola sells deisel which will only be profitable as long as there isnt stable electricity. why will he be a supporter/sponsor of the gej ticket if he isnt sure that power will remain in its present state?

There are businessmen all around the world that deal in Gas(which is a major source of power abroad) and who are also supporters of Goverments. It hasnt changed anything. Besides, the power situation has improved tremendously. If you are not in Nigeria, call home and ask people.

what about the lip service being paid to Jos crisis? how about the promise of ensuring the bombers of 1st october are brought to justice? no bomber/kidnapper has ever been arrested?

Till date Osama has not been caught even after almost three presidents have sworn to catch him. There are serial killers and mass murderers abroad who have been known to operate for years before being caught(Watch a bit of Crime reality tv and see).The resolve, desire and the will to catch the perpetrators is there. That they havent been caught is not Jonathan's fault.


how about alams and ibori being treated with kids gloves? a spineless leader is what we do not need. a leader who sorrounds himself with mediocres and crooks will deepen our sorrows.

Jonathan is a democrat. He would always observe the rule of law. This is probably one of the reasons why some people are clamoring for Buhari. So that he can suddenly swoop and whisk every person suspected to be corrupt into jail while we clap and cheer.
The people you mentioned were tried in competent courts. Jonathan is not in the executive as well as judiciary. What the courts say, is what he would follow. He is not Obj neither is he Buhari. You should be worried about judges messing things and not GEJ.

what informed the appointment of bianca onoh as an adviser?


This here is politics. There are trade offs here and there. It happens everywhere in the world. Ojukwu's APGA have been subtly supporting him. Its a political move. Besides Bianca Onoh has never stolen Government funds so why not give her a post?

why does he need 133aides?

Please list them before we can debate it.



Why does he keep buying jets with the tax payer's money?

They proposed to buy 4 new jets. Two old Jets are bad. And we all read of how one developed fault some time ago while he was using it.

Besides, its not his Jet. Its Nigerian Government Jet that would outlast him in office and others coming in will still use. They are not his personal jets.


what do u make of his empty silly promises of 36airports and new universities when the ones on ground are not maintained?

Promises are promises. Whether he can fulfill them can only be judged after his tenure or a considerable time into his tenure.

You have not answered the one that was asked of you Buhari supporters earlier.

Why does a man who claims to be a corruption fighter have to arrange a clandestine meeting with individuals who are embodiments of corruption in Nigeria because of his inordinate desire to rule? He met with people like IBB, Atiku, Ciroma on the eve of their botched alliance talks with ACN

deezzle:
U are wrong. It wasnt a divine message, it was based on his personal perception

No you are the one who is wrong. Below are excerpts from that article. Read the highlighted parts:

He said, “As it is right now, only God can stop IBB from becoming the president of this nation again. You are likely to disagree but the strategy to bring him back has been perfected and the script is being acted out.

“But there is good news there because God has shown me how to stop him.”

The cleric, who did not tell his audience the strategy to stop the Minna-based General from becoming the president in 2007, added that none of the presidential front runners would make Aso Rock.

Bakare said, “Let me tell you the truth by the spirit of God, neither (President Olusegun Obasanjo), OBJ, Atiku (Abubakar), IBB and this tall one, (Muhammadu) Buhari are part of the new. They are part of the old that is decaying. That old one is passing away. The new is emerging and these ones are not part of that new.”

Emphasis on 'by the spirit of God' and "God has shown me"

deezzle:
@Aletheia, I can call u an based on my misconception of u as a result of thing i must have read or heard u say which coulda been misquoted or out o context. But on meeting you, i can then realise how great a guy u probably are. It happens to a lot of us as human beings. We make judgement wrongly sometimes which is not abnormal. tunde Bakare said this before he met Buhari and after meeting him, he realised how golden he is.

I had met Ribadu and thought highly of him but his actions lately has changed my opinion of him

Bakare didnt call Buhari out based on what he heard. He did so based on a 'divine' message and prophecy. Its different.

Donlittle:
no i dont watch them, cant recall the last time i watch those stuff
but have been buying newspaper since i was like 14 or 15, but have been reading sacks of newspaper from the 80s that my daddy kept in the house since i was in Jss1

Its obvious you need to do some more reading. Just start with the Bakare prophecy which we earlier explained to you. Aletheia has graciously provided you with a link here : http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art20061002624695 . Read up and see that they are all jokers including bakare.

Donlittle:
oh u again, now even if you didnt get free eduaction under pdp
dont u knw there is freedom of speech??
if i like, i will prob tell  goodluck he is mad to is face
wat will he do? am waiting for your reply

You wouldnt dare try that with Buhari, you would be gathered and thrown into the deepest parts of kirikiri before you exhale.

Thank your stars its Jonathan, a democrat.

Donlittle:
ohhh damn
now i am sure u just bought a TV

Oh man, have you been starved of TV or what? Whats this obsession with it? It keeps proving to us that you are probably too young to be discussing these things.  

Let me see , dont you have power rangers to watch?

deezzle:
And he was right, there is nothing wrong with our 6334 system but funding. Most of us are products of that system but unfortunately, due to lack of funds, the standard has gone downhill. The reason for the lack of funding can be traced to corruption!!!! That is what buhari said and it is very true

When he was probed further to explain,it was clear that he wasnt talking about the 6334 system. Thats why Ribadu was livid with rage at what the old soldier was saying.

Donlittle:
This was what most ppl said in 2007?? why should i believe you

Aww, from all indications, you are a very young person and you are truly searching for answers. I was very young during all the dictators' rule but all the things I didnt witness myself, my parents and older ones let me know. Buhari is no democrat. Neither is he a liberal person. A Buhari presidency will probably see many people thrown into jail(both guilty and innocent ones) but after that , what next? Even in recent debates and interviews, he has not articulated any developmental project he would carry out. Hey!, he even said there is nothing wrong with our educational system, can you beat that?

Au contraire, I will be in Naija by 2012 , working and advancing in the gains of democracy. Thankful to God that we were not hoodwinked into regressing to primitive times, which it would have been had we voted Buhari.

Donlittle:
You probably just bought a TV last year for telling me jonathan just got into politic, were una be take come from gan self
jonathan was a deputy governor in is state,  during is tenure no AChievement,
but he can build a hotel for hisself sebi?? Now good
i will watch if you can afford to  pay a day in that hotel till u DIE

I dont know how old you are but the parts of your post that I highlighted , are very childish.

I said Jonathan was not in power meaning as president in 1999.

Donlittle:
oh damn, please were you come from?? yhu use your mouth say all these bullshitt and u no they fear?? buhari killed the economy?? even if u dnt have tv back then at least there was internet now that u can use to get your facts right,
media has spread now, u can get fact, everything u said here, none of these bullshiit is right, is this how dumb GEJ is? ewoooo


Now where does it say in the bible dont have a political post??
SAmuel in the bible, David, solomon,
were u being take come from
dumb dumb na hin i go they call u from today
read news ok and listen so next time u wnt come and foool urself

At Donlittle, I understand your situation. You have not read neither have you known what is going on. What he means by a pastor working against his own prophecy(referring to Bakare), is that Bakare himself sometime ago said "You see all these men, IBB, Atiku, etc, they all belong in the old. They can never be president, even that other tall one called Buhari"

People who remember it have been reminding him of it and posting the quote and the time he made it in newspapers.

bamosagie:
When the crying general overthrew Shehu Shagari the exchange rate was two dollar to one naira, then the naira nosedived, he started the austerity measure that completely ruin our growing economy, destroyed the middle class, and killed local content.
now some young nairalanders who have no idea how inept this man is says he is a saint. people who were yet to be conceived during his reign of terror. I believe in discipline but I will preach it with civility. I know for a fact that Idiagbon was Mr. WAI, the general was just along for the ride, please dont let me stop you from voting a cowardly general & a pastor working against his own prophesy, please vote and defend your vote.

@bamosagie, these are issues I wanted the ones that claim to 'reason' to clarify for us. But they are running with the 'Corruption fighter' tag that he has and cant even render a reason.

They dont know that people were made to line up to buy essential commodities during Buhari's time. And the essential commodities were seized from individuals who paid money for them and they were forced to sell below cost price in some instances.

They dont know that he hounded journalists and jailed them calling them rabble-rousers. They should look for the journalists of those days and get the right information.

@Donlittle, the gains we had in 1999 are a lot more than we had during all the military dictators' time put together, economically , socially , politically. Besides, Jonathan was not in power in 1999. Goodluck has only been there for 9 months.

Donlittle:
HAHA, u made me lol, did u just say did all these started with jonah, do u knw wen jonah got into politics?? way back in 1999, if u dnt knw knw now ooo

and your other argument. i dnt even know what it is based on ooo,

NO 1 policy i see in Buhari is Anti corruption- which is the no  thing nigeria needs to move forward.

Donlittle, dont start lolling yet my friend.

You said : "did u just say did all these started with jonah, do u knw wen jonah got into politics?? way back in 1999, if u dnt knw knw now ooo"

So what you are saying is that all the things that she listed, eg Nigerians trafficking and prostituting abroad etc, all started in 1999 when Jonah entered politics?
So you dont know that way back in 1983 , even till 85 when Buhari took over that there were people in drug trafficking and prostitution abroad?

You said No 1 Policy you see in Buhari is Anti corruption yet Buhari, because of his strange feeling of entitlement to the throne, went full circle to meet with the core individuals that are embodiments of corruption in Nigeria to aid him in actualizing his ambitions. So where does the corruption start and end?

@solo
i cant even argue with you becuase you are, lol

if u for one minute think that Jonathan has any idea how to get us out of this self destructive mode and the mountain of problems that have accumulated over the years ,my friend then you should be in Mars,
off[b] to bed as i can engage in a fruitless match with you,
you will just not reason,that ability is something that will probably elude you forever,[/b]
good night

Why cant you argue? You say Jonathan has no idea, can you tell me what Ideas that the Buhari you lot have been talking about has? And all you do is throw about subtle insults and say you are off to bed. The big thing we have noticed on nairaland is that the people who have no capacity (or at best a limited one) to debate or reason are usually the first to say others cant reason.
Do you think everyone will agree to your sentimental babble? Give me the reasons you have in endorsing Buhari. Is it as a democrat, or a liberal person or an educated and enlightened person? Spill it. Otherwise keep your sentimental hogwash to yourself .

jmaine:
Is this the Zicco i know somewhere (on an IT level)   . but back to your points . . you colleagues who support the BB candidacy have being playing the cheap blackmail card of useless curses  in prayers formats to people who were meant to have the freedom to chose who they like or prefer . . .My family doesn't need the goodwill of the Government to survive cos we are entrepreneurs and by the grace of God we are not doing badly in a nation others call useless . .we are busy harvesting the goldmine of opportunities in this country by working hard while others blame the Govt for everything even failing to prepare for their exams  . . .

Why should you caution me when you have been seeing this trend lately from your camp dating weeks back ( see below)

But you chose to look the other way . .I chose to respond kind for kind so that they see how it feels doling out curses as a cheap blackmail for not seeing the world in their own view . . they have being playing dirty with curses and i respond and you call me rough . . .that is not a fair judgement from someone like you . . .

Okay. i will restrain from any curse or prayer rendering sections . . . . if only they will play by the rules and return to objective reasoning and arguments though often laced with bias

For the highlighted part, I say thank you.

if i seek employment because i am well and able i wont be able to get because the big shots instead of using the funds embezzeled to build industries and factories have bought houses and cars and have put their children in the limited positions that other foriegn companies using their own resources have built the same industries and factories,

Nigeria through you is on the path of self destruction and when it wxplodes and you want to got to your safe haves(obodo oyinbo)remember say a black man to oyinbo is on the same scale of a monkey, it wont be all roses oh

But excuse me , did all that you stated above start with Jonathan?

And for every girl you quoted there that are prostituting themselves in Italy, there are 10 others back here who have refused to do that and are working and making a living.

Most of those things you mentioned that Nigerians are caught doing are majorly due to their greed and the desire to get rich quick.

Not all of us are in Thai jails due to drug trafficking, because some of us realize that their are better ways.

Have you seen some of those drug traffickers? Do they look to you like people who are hungry?

Have you seen the Yahoo boys? They spend hundreds of thousands on phone calls and technology. Does that indicate a person who is hungry?

You don't take the actions of a debased mind and the actions of someone who is innately corrupt and blame it on Jonathan.

Some of us are not sentimental about this whole thing. We are also looking at it objectively.

You have been screaming and asking the GEJ supporters what they see in Jonathan. Its your turn to tell them what you see in Buhari.

Lets even look at everything from past to present holistically.
