The sooner SE & other ethnic minorities in Nigeria realize that they are of no importance to the northerners and SW the better. No minority individual or south easterner will ever have peace if he should step into aso rock as president. when northerners said they will make Nigeria ungovernable for GEJ, they were not mincing words and we are all witnesses to what BH has been doing since the inception of this administration same will befall a minority president from any other tribe who dares become president.

seyi360: I'm looking at a Ribadu/Bakare ticket

strike Bakare out of that permutation, the dude is too volatile for any political establishment seeking credibility. A technocrat like Pat Utomi will be far better in my opinion, he will benefit the country in aspects of govts privatisation processes which usually falls under the office of the vice president.

Me thinks the APC should bother themselves with constituting themselves into a TRULY national party that carries along all regions/ethnic nationalities both major & minor and forget about the shenanigans in the PDP who will definitely take care of themselves one way or the other. Any "crisis" within the PDP or any party for that matter is just political maneuverings to project their strongest arm come the next elections.
The APC is obviously bringing out their own candidate for the 2015 presidential elections so whatever happens in the PDP shouldn't bother them. Anyways, happy voting to una

camelus: False identity Cos ΰя̩̥̊ not an Ibo ! aπϑ †̥̥Ђӛ likes of Prof. Chalse Soludo,Prof. Dora Akunyili,Senator Ike Ekweremadu,Gov Peter Obi,Surllivan Chime(though medically not sound again),Senator Ken Nnamani,Chief Emeka Anyaoku etc Lack Leadership qualities, aя̣̣̥ε̲̣̣̣̥ u α̲̅ Leaner ?

pls kindly show me where I claimed to be an igbo man

Skybancs: Jona can't contest for second term.... and for Igbo man to step in that office will make Nigerian difficult to stay... Am an igbo but will Never vote for an Igbo man because we lack leadership quality.

mr skybancs, YOU are not an igbo man.

I didn't vote last elections and I won't vote in the next. Polititcians have brainwashed Nigerians causing a lot of anger and disharmony in the land especially through religeous and tribal sentiments causing young and vibrant youths to fight themselves when they (the politicians) lose elections while their children galivant abroad in choice schools and cities. I don't give a damn who wins elections because I don't depend on the government to survive after all I pay my taxes in 3 states of this country and to the federal govt, all i ask for is peace in Nigeria

ilugunboy: The idea look really tempting and interesting...It will definitely sell across the country except probably SE and SS simply because of ethnicity and religion bigotry of these two regions.

ethnicity and religeous bigotry of the ss/se ? Man u suck. On this same nairaland, igbo people are insulted to high heavens especially by the yorubas just because they are igbo no more no less. Then I want you to point out where a ss person has EVER exhibited traits of ethnicity and religeous bigotry. Don't make me laugh abeg, na for here I learn "omo Igbo" as an insult

Its quite funny when people say Jonathan is a weak candidate even a retard. Someone who could deftly out maneuver a political heavyweight like Atiku Abubakar during the last PDP presidential primaries shouldn't be taken for granted, doing so will be at the opponents' own risk. We all are witnesses to the finesse with which the 2011 elections were conducted, I believe someone called it "scientific rigging" but it was so smooth, the international community had no choice but to applaud the process as "free and fair". This "retardeen" GEJ just might be a silent genius come 2015 especially if the APC makes the mistake of turning the elections into another tribalistic/ethnic/relegious contest which was the final nail that sealed the CPC's coffin in the 2011 presidential elections.
The only hope of the APC now is to come out as a NATIONAL party not one with regional or ethnic bias or one that looks down on other tribes like they are inconsequential.

I dunno if this prophecy is true but I guess you guys didn't see the caveat in it "if they are able to unite AND work against those sent in by the PDP".
So its not yet uhuru, let the premature celebrations seize. For now at least

GenBuhari: [size=13pt]Buhari has maintained that he is not in politics for personal ambition, but to save Nigeria.

He would gladly retire when he is convinced the country is in the right hands or path.

Now we know that there is not a single politician in Nigeria who has the vote pulling power that Buhari has.

If you had a poll today between :

Fashola

Chime

Duke

Akpabio

Amaechi

Buhari

Rocha

Sanusi

Who would win? - Buhari will get most votes by far.

Then again because there are so many crooks and looters in politics and within the APC, I can not see that thieves would readily support Buhari to become president.

The only way for Nigeria to progress is through a revolution.

A corrupt system can never repair itself.

Let us wait to hear from Buhari himself[/size]

the only other slightly clean person on your list IS sanusi, the rest stink

sadi78: . Your papa name sound like sh!t, I'd!ot you no get respect! Abi u come from small house? Where respect of elders no dey.

Haaaaaahahahahhahahahahahhahahaha this is f*ack/n hilarious

25 bans on page 0 alone 93 altogether including ALL my posts... Hahahhahahahaha

Heard Remi Tinubu will come out for senate presidency.
Let's just pray the best leaders get into office come 2015.

tomakint: Maina was the chairman of Pension Reform Taskforce drafted by d then head of service, Dapo Afolabi, to oversee the activities of the office between June 9 and Sept 8, 2011. In the course of the investigation, Maina was alleged to have 'cornered N119 million' while raising a false alarm that d said money was illegally withdrawn by some principal officers of d Police Pension Office (PPO) just to divert attention. That was d genesis of his problem. So, he is a certified criminal

your explanation contradicts itself, you say "Maina was alleged to have 'cornered' N119 million" then end by saying "so he is a certified criminal". You can't be a certified criminal based on an allegation, in my honest opinion, I think Maina is just suffering Aruma Oteh treatment whereby you are punished for causing discomfort for members of the legislature. Some days back on AIT's Focus Nigeria, this same topic was brought up where it was said that some legislators who were not named were also involved in the N23 billion police pension fraud, Maina has also come out to say that he has more exposes' on corrupt national assembly members that will shock Nigerians and make the police pension fraud a childs play. Let's just pray for this country.

chucky234: Dumb beetle-headed goon like you is the reason why this country is where it is today,in a country of 150m people Maina single handedly stashed N23bn in a foreign bank accounts while the mases languish in poverty yet your combobulated brain see nothing wrong with it.
You are a disgrace to this nation,idio:t.

mr obahiagbon, pls do not use big grammer to scatter that your little head since I'm not into an insulting match with you. I stand by my opinion and I did not make that opinion while insulting anybody on nairaland, whenever you see Maina or the assembly members you can kindly ask them to give you your share of the 23 billion. Thank you very much

These national assembly members can't fool me. Is it because Maina is exposing their dirty corrupt laundry that they want him arrested ? Isokay.
In the police pension issue, national assembly members were involved in the fraud which is most probably the reason why John Yusuf got a soft landing of N750,000, Maina has other dirty secrets that will further tarnish the image of our corrupt assembly that's why they want to silence him but e no go work lailai.

This fA*ck/n aboki man wants to boko haramize the entire country with his sharia wahala. He should beTter do dat nonsense in his village alone and leave Nigerians to their choice of alcohol. Bloody Arrow SADam Hussain

Very tragic, may her soul rest in peace.
As a warning, swimming in a pool is quite different from swimming in a river as there are underwater currents which can disgrace even the best of swimmers occasionally. Please be warned

Dapo4u: . Are you saying if candidate A got A1 in Economics, irrespective of his grades in other subjects, he is by far the best student in your class?

we're talking university cgpa here not waec or neco.

bankylan: There is one OAU Eco graduate in my office too. The guy confirmed that they were not given the best of knowledge. The guy has 2.1 too; I told him he would be lucky to have 2.2 in Unilorin or UI. My judgment is based on what I know about him in respect to his intellect.

For Economics, I will advise anyone to go to Ilorin or UI in Nigeria. And if you have the money, please just travel abroad. The reason being that the curriculum here in all Nigerian schools is outdated and being taught by 'professors and Dr' who are outdated.

you're right my brother, UNILORIN is by far a better school than most universities in Nigeria. I just laughed when I saw this OAU thingy

I met a 2:1 economics graduate of OAU while in camp who told me the 25 billion naira recapitalization of banks embarked upon by ex CBN chief Charles Soludo was for the procurement of ATM machines and security doors... Hehehe

Ibanga p: I tink dis is kind of too offensive a comment to make abt som1 who hasn't wronged u in anyway. Even if he has, y bring his name into a different nd un-associated topic like dis 1. I tink u deserve a lenghty ban.

you dey mind the man mkpi ?

Pace$etter:
I'm sorry for that new issue...but i mean running costs....i'm a greenhorn in car matters...vw golf1,6 & golf 3

is it golf 3, golf 4, golf 5 or golf 6. 1,6 is just the size of the engine not a model . The higher the model spec, the more expensive the parts especially 5 & 6, fuel economy is generally fair especially on a 1,6 litre engine so u shouldn't have problems just take care of the car very well especially servicing aspects and know the kind of "mechanic" you allow near the car

baby_123: Ok, even if they are all the same. We see what cpc, and ACN has done in their respective states vs pdp. Sir, I ask you, what has pdp done. At the state level these parties have performed better than pdp since they held power in 2003. I will take my chances with APC. The odds are better. I don't think you can win the election with this type of strategy. PDP was given a last chance, and they f*#ked it up.

can you honestly say you left the comfort of your house and travelled all the way to a cpc controlled state, stayed and evaluated the level of development there compared to when a pdp govt was in place. Its alright to criticize but its better to do so with facts, not cool being an armchair critic at all.
In my opinion, I still don't trust politicians and their shenanigans and I dare say the APC will need these 12 PDP governors to donate some stolen resources to their 2015 campaign resulting in messiahs with soiled hands. What's the use at the end of the day ?

I didn't concentrate on the thread title until after I had made my post, I'm sorry. The OP should have bEen clearer about what he wanted.

CLIQBOY: upload ya picture make we see *in phyno voice* indiara

your own picture will be better. Anumanu

Thrs nothing human about the face, the dog is just damn ugly

semid4lyfe: Na normal thing for FILM jare

For example, X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) had "Nigerian" scenes of Lagos and a Village in South Eastern Nigeria where Ibo was even spoken but the crew and cast never set foot in Nigeria.

they didn't even speak the igbo sef, they just chanted jargons in that scene

Even the Americans whom we try to copy have what is called "swing voters" who are neither democrats or republicans but only vote according to what an election candidate promises during his/her campaign. These swing voters to a large extent actually determine the outcome of elections and must be courted carefully instead of insulted. Whether we like it or not, there are swing voters in Nigeria and with the way elections are gradually becoming free and fair, those swing voters might be a deciding factor and should be pampered by any serious political party. If they should ask questions, such should be answered in a tone of respect and not insults.
I don't understand what people like omo tier 1 hope to achieve by hurling insults at anyone who seems to go against his party affiliation but I tell you at the end of the day, our Nigerian swing voters might just decide to stick with the devil they know (pdp). Pray explain why 12 "corrupt, thieving retardeens" should be given a soft landing in the new messianic party (apc) instead of tried and convicted if possible ? If a man knows he's going to get sh/t in the market, I assure you, he'll stick with the sh/t he has at home since there's no difference. My two cents 8-)

Old wine, new bottle, same old sh/t. This is why I never take politicians and elections in Nigeria seriously. I bet saint Buhari will be cringing at the thought of 12 rogues in his party. How will he arrest them on corruption charges if he becomes president ? Except you want to tell me their already prepared case files with the efcc will be burnt
