Think of the Boko Haram menace and understand that it is not a question of Jonathan failing on national security,but a huge sabotage against our nation by elements looking to benefit from his ouster. One of the worst things done to our nation by that buffoon, Olusegun Obasanjo was the emasculation of our armed forces. He did it when he came into power in 1999 under the pretext that he was professionalizing the army and stopping them from planning coups. His Ministers of Defence, Theophilus Danjuma and Rabiu Kwankwaso oversaw the destruction of the army, even as massive money was voted in the defence budget. Of course, we had no threat. By the time that threat came in the form of Boko Haram,Yar’Adua dealt with it with overwhelming force. But that was the problem. Yar’Adua ordered the killing ofBoko Haram activists extra-judicially, but that only earned them international recognition from Global Jihad. With external money and training, they were transformed and under Jonathan, they became the Nigerian franchise of Global Jihad. Then in collaboration withNorthern power-mongers they began a process of blackmailing Jonathan. He asked for negotiation, they would not budge; he promised them amnesty, theywould not budge. They simply continue to kill defenseless citizens at will, because they know that will undermine Jonathan and the state. They support this with propaganda, inflating number of casualties and working with their political partners to undermine the stateand state response at all levels. Meanwhile, when the nation had the OPC problem in the West, Yoruba leaders went out there to sort it out. When we had problems with Bakassi Boys in the East, Igbo leaders rose to the challenge and when we had the militancy in the Niger-Delta, South-South leaders, including Goodluck Jonathan went into the creeks to talk the boys into disarming. Now, what have the Northern leaders done about Boko Haram since it started its rampage? Some wring their hands helplessly, while others like Buhari make political capital out of it! Of course, all Boko Haram wants now is a Northern president who would establishSharia all over Nigeria and Buhari will give them that. But what that means is that they used the power of their guns to impose on us a national leadership that would take us back to the Middle Ages. I have no scruples with Buhari and his kith and kin that want criminal Sharia, but they cannot impose it on therest of the nation above our Constitution. I will not vote for my own death! I will not vote for my people’s death! I will not vote to take Nigeria through the darkness that I know a Buhari presidency represents!
GEJ is re-electing again 2015

[b]"If Buhari was pictured attending a mosque, and it
was reported that the Imam said 'he would open
the gates to hell upon those who oppose Buhari',
and Buhari sat there and said nothing, what do
you think many people would be saying today?

If Buhari was pictured going to different mosques
and kneeling before Imams, as part of his
campaign, what do we think the comments would
be? If Buhari was pictured going on pilgrimage to
Mecca, surrounded by a retinue of fawning Imams,
what would the response be from Nigerians? If
Buhari invited senior Imams from across the
country to a meeting with him, to discuss the
elections and his campaign strategy, what would
the Nigerian people think?
GEJ has done all the above, and we are told he has a right to do so as
a committed christian. Buhari has done none of
the above yet he is called a religious
fundamentalist with a plan to turn Nigeria into an
Islamic nation. Please examine the facts so we
can honestly decide who is acting like the real
religious fundamentalist? Who is using religious
faith as a political ploy to get votes? No pastor,
Bishop, GO, Reverend Father, Imam etc etc is
GOD. They can only advice on how to elect or select good leaders
to vote for.

Go out there and support the candidate of your choice. Make your choice based
upon who will give you and your children a better life and a better Nigeria. As for me and my family we have decided and by the grace of GOD Nigeria shall be better for us all insha ALLAH.
MAKE A GOOD CHOICE.[/b]

For me, it's a NO! And I'm going 2 give the cold hard facts to you comprehensively.

Contrary to popular media-myth I have yet to meet a single mom who was career driven, carefree, balanced, happy; doing it all type gal as often portrayed in most media outlets. The reality I have seen over the years is usually a stressed out, overworked, debt stricken woman who really had no idea children cost so much in time, effort and money. Their careers are on hold as they need to balance their child with sickness, school activities etc versus moving up whatever career ladder they are on. Most single moms are raising their children with help of an extended family member (usually their mom), a bevy of friends and other single moms they find in support groups. It is usually not a pretty picture at all.

Somewhere along the way, usually quite quickly they come up with the idea that they need a "partner" to help them in their new enterprise of having a child and the sooner they can get one the better. Realizing they have a bit of a disadvantage with having a child and being in the dating scene they resort to several well known strategies to get a partner.
nobody is above mistakes not even you, most ladies are single moms today just because of one single mistake.my fiancée is an independent single mom, who is ambitious and trust me there are one thousand and one men who will kill to marry her if I ever leave her which I am never going to do. guy there are single ladies with bigger issues than single moms so if u meet a single mom u love go ahead and build a beautiful home with her


One trait that seems to come to the forefront with most men who are dating single moms is just how wonderful a woman they really are. Most men cannot for the life of them figure out why another man would abandon a woman like her. It has been stated that single moms are more caring, compassionate, great lovers, excellent cooks, laugh at all your jokes etc they seem to be ideal mates.

No matter what you see as a man there is something else going on do not forget that. Her plan is to eventually get a partner one way or another. You are the prize and she is going to earn it.

My brother wetin u dey yan sef, because na woman if she misbehave u will be looking @ her? 2 hot slap for her cheek is not a bad idea.


Honestly, nobody is infallible, so when she is stepping out of line u scold her, if she continues, slap her,dat hot slap will instil some sense of reasoning in her, because if u don't, she will probably tink she's ryte. Am talkin frm experience, I used to be very lax with women, until they started taking me for granted, then I realize women need iron hand.

Inability to scold & disagree with a lady makes u a weak man b4 her.proverb say it's better to live in a dessert,than with a contentious woman, if u can't scold her, don't live with her, cos she will definitely rile u.
