[quote author=TRUTHTELA post=30214801]I find it very appalling that a lot of Nigerian politicians stoop low, manipulate TRUTH, FACT and FIGURES just for political gain. I am yet to see that Nigerian, that will put Nigeria first. EXAMPLE OF HOW A DEVELOPED NATION THAT PUT COUNTRY FIRST, behaves. Alan Greenspan, ( Fed Reserve Chairman under George Bush Snr. ), served in the same post under Bill Clinton ( Democratic Party), meaning, POLICY CONSISTENCY. Ben Bernanke, ( Fed Reserve Chairman ) was nominated by George Bush Jnr, and he took over from Greenspan, as the Federal Reserve Bank Chairman of USA, equivalent of CBN Governor in Nigeria.

When Obama, took over from Bush, despite USA's economic crisis, Obama, didn't replace Bernanke, and Greenspan didn't go to the media trashing Bernanke, ("COUNTRY FIRST" and Obama about their policies. As expected, POLICY CONSISTENCY and several other factors helped USA to wither that STORM. Regardless of your POLITICAL IDEOLOGY, USA, policy makers, knows when to put party aside and USA interest will take the front seat.

Again, NO TRIBE in Nigeria, can boast of anyone with Ngozi Iweala's type of RESUME, INTEGRITY and CONNECTION. Before Ngozi, joined Obasanjo's govt. she dine and wine with WORLD PRESIDENTS and INTELLECTUALS. Ngozi, attended Havard Uni, and all her four kids graduated from Havard. What can anyone in the world tell Ngozi? Where can you fault her? What more can Ngozi ask God for?

Obasanjo, has NO EDUCATION, just like Buhari, and the Generals of that era. The first graduate to join the Army was Odimegwu Ojukwu, another SMART and GREAT Igbo folk. Ngozi, Oby, Soludo were they BRAIN behind any "success" Obasanjo, recorded as president. I mean, Oby, El Rufai, Ribadu, Soludo, they have worked with Ngozi, her COMPETENCY and INTEGRITY can't be FAULTED by any man born by a woman. Surprisingly, Oby, El Rufai and their ilk, always want to fault Ngozi or assassinate her character simply because of " POLITICS". Shame on them.

When you ENEMIES OF IGBO's want to boast about Obasanjo's saving of ECA and Debt cancellation stuff, DON"T FORGET THAT Obasanjo, is an ILLITERATE, everything about ECA, Debt relief, Monetization, etc were Ngozi's BRAIN CHILD. FYI, the Western Nations, gave Ngozi, to Obj, FDI, were flooding into Nigeria, simply cos they saw who the Minister of Finance is.

Nigeria is JINXED and JINXED for life!! Why would Obj, an UNEDUCATED PAUPER that was lucky to made presidents by his ilk, remove a Havard trained Economist. I mean, what does Obj, know about Finance? He only had military training and that's it. Because of EGO, GREED, and MYOPIC SENTIMENTS, Obasanjo, foolishly remove as the Finance Minister, now moved her to Foreign Affairs, typical of Ngozi, she's now in government to make money, Ngozi, rejected Obj's redeployment, she told Obj. I AM NOT A POLITICIAN and she went back to World Bank, where she belongs. FYI, NO NIGERIAN, I MEAN, NO NIGERIAN has EVER rejected or willingly resigned as a Minister ( a lucrative one like Foreign Affairs for that matter), ONLY AN HONEST SELFLESS LADY LIKE Ngozi, could do that. Do your research or ask your parents, Nigerian politicians don't resign, unless they were kicked out. The whole world was ashamed that Obj, will allow greed and ego to becloud him. Obj, didn't see the need to put COUNTRY FIRST.

Imagine, if only Obj, isn't short-sighted and greedy, he allowed Ngozi, to remain as the Finance Minister, then handover Nigeria, to a very competent president ( not Yardua and Goodluck), that would retain Ngozi, OR continue where Obj and Ngozi stopped, that's what's called POLICY CONSISTENCY, this is one area where I like Tinubu, ( I dislike a lot about him too) and it seems to be helping Lagos. FYI, in everything you do in life, try to be HONEST, don't COMPROMISE your INTEGRITY, it will come back to help or ruin you. Because of Ngozi's INTEGRITY, many of you may not know, Yardua, went and begged her to come and serve in her government. Guess what? Ngozi, turned it down. Jonathan, came on board, and went for that same woman that rejected a Ministerial appointment that doesn't SUIT her EXPERTISE. Luckily, she gave GEJ, her conditions and GEJ, accepted, hence, she resigned again as World Bank VP, to come and help you guys to rebuild that HELL HOLE.

Guys, if some of you will be SINCERE, Ngozi have been VOCAL about the need to DIVERSIFY THE ECONOMY, SAVE ECA, and REDUCE RECURRENT EXPENDITURE, but the people that CLING onto the OIL WEALTH doesn't want to think and tap into other resources that's in their region ( "oil belongs to all Nigerians", it's a public knowledge that Amechi, and his Northern friends refused the idea of SAVING ECA, then dragged the Fed. Govt to court ( "share all the revenue" ), the people that CLING onto the Federal Civil Service always accuse Ngozi, of "Biafran Agenda", simply because she wants government to reduce workforce/ recurrent expenditure.

Now, the chicken has come home to roost, oil prices has tumbled and Naira, fell like an Iroko tree and you guys expect Ngozi, to do what? To use her blood and fixed the economy? Nigeria, is "UNFIXABLE", YOU GUYS MUST RESTRUCTURE THE COUNTRY FOR THINGS TO WORK. World Leaders, World Bank and PEOPLE THAT MATTERS on this earth KNOWS WHO NGOZI IWEALA is, what Soludo and some TRIBALISTIC folks think of her won't DIMINISH her standing in this world, till the day she dies. Before Ngozi became a Minister in Nigeria, she's WEALTHY, by USA or any other standard.

Soludo, knows Ngozi better, Soludo, knows that there's nothing any economist can do about oil prices, but Soludo, knows what can me done so that THE FALL IN OIL PRICES WILL STOP BATTERING NIGERIA's ECONOMY, but he chose to blame it on Jonathan and Ngozi, for the sake of election and politics. I use to read Soludo's , article on Thisday Newspapers Backpage, he has always emphasized on the need to DIVERSIFY THE ECONOMY and PRACTICE FISCAL FEDERALISM. Suddenly, he's singing a different tone. Shame on Soludo and Oby Ezekwesili, POLITICAL EXPEDIENCY made both of you to BETRAY Ngozi and Ndi Igbo. I love History, it has a way of VINDICATING THE JUST. Nigerians and the world is laughing at Soludo and Oby, because, they are LOSERS. Oby is on the street doing Obj and the NON MISSING GIRLS HATCHET JOB. Soludo, was REJECTED by Anambara people and everyone, so I understand their BEEF on Ngozi, who REJECTED politics, held onto her INTEGRITY, stayed on her CAREER PATH, and the World Bank will not hesitate to give Ngozi, her VP position back.

I, and millions of other INTELLIGENT and UNBIASED minds will continue to speak the TRUTH and RESPECT the likes of Ngozi.

Dude,I hate coming across tri bal bigot like you.Get a jo b or a life pls

FastShipping:
I don't have to show you anything. Don't forget he did the adverts twice in span of six days. The front page on Punch front page cost 15.8 Million and he did the advert twice.

The one on Sun News front page cost 16.3 Million Naira and he also did that twice within a week.

If you do the maths, the foolish governor spent in the region of over 60 Million naira for the stupid publications that only compound PDP and Jonathan woes.

Don't waste your time with re tards like him,he will only succeed in bringing you down to his level.

Mofos like him have sold the future of their kids generation for a spoonful of porridge.

Bunch of senile hypocrites

OP good questions,but I will advice you ask Buhari these questions via his official twitter handle.

Thank you.

A clueless follower/supporter will always get a clueless leader.

How has the country shape up under GEJ?

How do you get yourself surrounded by guys like Abbo Morro,Alison,FFK etc etc and you wants to be taken serious?

What practictal things has he done in office in the last 4yrs?

Will we ever see the end of insurgency with him in the saddle?

Why does he deserve a second term?

His followers will always turn a blind to these questions.

Very shameful if you ask me.

CHM11:
I was only touched by the words of this man when I was reading about Buhari from the source.
Kindly open the source and carefully read through.
Additionally, I would not vote a Buhari simply because a Jonathan is bad. I should vote a Buhari because he has what I need in a president and not because Jonathan did this or did that. As for me, I would have voted a fashola ahead of a Jonathan. Thanks to Buhari and the North born to rule syndrome we could not get a Fashola or even a Rochas.
I kept wondering why he would want to be president this much even when he has younger and more efficient minds around him, this is why I took my tour on wiki and I was amazed as to why he wants to be president by all means.

I would have prefer Fashola over Buhari too,but you and I know this things are all part of Nigeria politics,Rochas?He wouldn't win the primaries,don't kid yourself.

More over there was call from well meaning Nigerians to field a Buhari/Fashola candidacy,I know you know why didn't it didn't pan out,religious sentiments.

As for not willing to vot Buhari,its your right and your choice,for me Jonathan doesn't deserve an 6 months in office.

Execellency should be earned and not given.

liberty300:
shut up, you ignoramus..our history is not mundane you waste of oxygen. We are talking about lives here

If"mundane" news"is all you pick and react to in my post then you are simply a re tard.

Talking about lives?Yeah..how about those been lost on a daily basis up there in north east?I guess it doesn't suit your agenda,hypocrite.

Taylor86:
and dis is the evil wolf in sheeps clothing that want to be the president........thunder fire satan

Sir,what do you think GEJ will do differently if re elected for another 4yrs?

@OP,I think we have gone past this stage of petty politics,Buhari did XYZ in 1984 or Buhari didn't do ABC in 1985.

There are more critical issues that needs serious discuss:

Is GEJ truly planning to post pone election?

If re elected what can/will he do differently?

Will it be wise to re elect GEJ again?

Has he delivered on his 2011 promises/manifesto?

How has Nigeria shape up under his regime?

Will insurgency be gone in 4yrs time with him in the saddle?

Will guys like Abbo Morro,FFK,Alison and co surround him if given another chance?

These are some of the things we should be discussing,not some mundane news.

why are you threatening and trying to intimidate the president and commander-in-chief?
or is President Jonathan not the sponsor of boko haram again?
you guys are just pitiful.

Take a deep breath sweet heart.....feeling better?I didn't see any"threat or intimidation"in her post.She even said a prayer for him.

OP,you made my day!The Doyin's part got me rolling on the floor with laughter!

You are the foolish one here. I will listen to him and learn. Being a Doctor, he could have his own theory or in the process of formulating one. It's left to me to accept his postulations or discard it.

What i will not do is listen to a stack illiterate say to me I will fight 'kworopshon' when he can't even pronounce it.

Actually,no one is forcing you to listen,watch or vote the"illiterate man".Honestly,this stale debate about Buhari's certificate or not has become boring and myopic.

How about pointing out what your"Doctor"has achieved in last 6yrs?

Has your"doctor"been able to cure the malaise plaguing Nigeria since when he when he came onboard?

Has your"doctor"found the chibok girls?I guess if one of your sister is among those missing girls,you will still"listen and learn from him" right?

A blind leading the blind!

denko:
IT QUITE UNFORTUNATE FOR HIM DESPEARTION FOR POWER

Kindly list Buhari and GEJ's crimes side by side so that we can all compare and contrast.

Thank you

I don't blame you. You are suffering from stockholm syndrome(google it). You think it's about being a gallant wicked soldier whose only qualification is proficiency in shooting guns. Governance now requires calculation, dialogue, eloquence, charisma, charm, technological know how, decision making, organizational skills, psychology, subtlety and economic acumen.
Fashola, Oshiomhole, Osinbajo, Rochas and the rest, the world is watching you people while you make fool of yourselves by presenting this nonentity as your best. Tinubu will run you people amok.

Stop making a fool of yourself,what has your boss with his so called"PHD"done in 6yrs?Point them out pls.

If your lecturer/teacher with"PHD" should say to you"Stealing is not corruption"what will you say to him/her?

PDP/GEJ bootlickers,a lawyer have spoken.Are you guys still running a high temperature over Buhari's certificate?

There are by a mile far more critical issues and questions that need's to be discuss.

1)The chibok girls,have they been found?

2)Is Abba Morro still a"free walking minister",despite the immigration job scam,where graduates were made to 1000 and end up dying for nothing?

3)The 20 million dollar oil money that suddenly disappeared,has it been found?If no,who is responsible for its disappearance?

4)Is Alison still a minister?Despite buying an amoured car for over 250 million dollars?

5)Has GEJ arrested those who he claimed wanted to assassinate him?

6)What's up with subsidy?

These and more are far more critical things to talk about,as it affect our different lives one way or the other,not some meaningless certificate that holds no water.

xcolanto:
Why has Buhari failed to approach WAEC for his result?? Rather he went to the same school his principal falsely issued him a letter of recommendation saying 'he will pass' WAEC when he had not even sat for the exam.
Mr intergrity better do the needful and apply to the right issuing authority which is WAEC rather than the fake one his school has provided. Kapish

You guys are unbelieveable.1st it was "Buhari go to your school and demand for your certificate,now its"why didn't he go to WAEC intead of going to his school"?

Clueless re tards

"A country built on deceit"?"And keep having deceitful rulers right"?

That aptly summarized your beloved PDP led govt,for the past 14yrs.Failed rulers and govt till date.

Not one single ex PDP president can beat his chest and say he was accountable,result oriented and trust worthy while in office,your pay master GEJ inclusive.

Late Yar'adua even admitted that the election that ushered him in with your your current boss was"flawed",GEJ confirmed recently when he made one of his numerous unguarded utterance befitting of a motor park tout rather than a president of a country,that all election since 1999 has always been RIGGED.

Do yourself and folks like you a favour,shut that stinking gutter you call mouth.

I hate hyprocrites!I hate double standard!

The rate at which people create thread/post over Buhari is quite remarkable.

Every Tom,manliness and Harry now creates thread on per second billing.

Buhari matter no go kill una,say amen!

"His this the change they promised"?

I give up

EMMA, WHEN DID YOU RELOCATE TO KANO? WHEN I MET YOU AT HOME IN THE MORNING. WHO DID THIS TO YOU?

USELESS OCCULTIC PASTOR DECEIVING PEOPLE IN THE NAME OF GOD.

APC = LIES, BITTERNESS.

WHY USING REINHARD BONKES CRUSADE PICTURES TO TO DECEIVE PEOPLE?

NIGERIANS SHOULD SEE THE CHANGE THAT APC IS BRINGING.

You sound like a frustrated being with no job,no single source of income and no hope of getting any meaningful job anytime soon......not even the rejected menial job(s).

Stay glued to your tv set(that's if you have any)for any news bulletin rebroadcast,the crowd will shut you and your likes up for good.

According to the Channels reporter on ground at the rally"Buhari had to wait 30 minutes inside his convoy before securities could make way for him within the crowd that has been waiting for 8 hours prior to his arrival"

Need I say more?

My condolence to the family of the bereaved.I'm lost for words.

This is sad,I hope the evil doers are made to pay for this.

WisdomFlakes:
Why is Reno always looking angry? Perhaps he's not enjoying his job or what?

When you work for a clueless,corruption friendly and indecisive man,you are always bound to look frustrated.

Height of joblessness!Did you know Buhari did this?Did you know Buhari did that?

At the intial stage,you GEJ bootlickers were laughing at him saying all sorts as to how Sambo alone will defeat him at the polls.Its now glaring that the only feasible way Buhari can be defeated is by rigging.....which will never work.

Gimme a reason or two why I should re elect GEJ,you are all citing some dumb,only on paper fight against corruption in the Agric sector for 6yrs and some locomotive trains as "achievement"?Are you guys kidding me?

Alison Madueke bought an amoured car for over 250 million dollars,she is still a minster today.

20 billion dollars oil money suddenly grew wings,yet no one is saying anything about it.

What about the scam immigration job?The chibok girls?I forgot,the girls weren't missing.

Ask GEJ to provide job for you, creating silly and mundane post like this won't put food on the table for you.

I doubt if you have even eating today.

charlesamos123:
The Nigerian Army have been trying to trace the way about of Boko Haram members yet it's been reported that some Chibok girls escaped from the Boko Haram members,how did they find there way home,without them noticing? something is definitely wrong somewhere. And I think this whole thing is just political, just like what the president of the United States said that 'that it might be because of the election'.

Stop sleeping on the bicycle.You can do better than this!

Embrace change!

Sai Buhari

I have been asking myself and wondering-

What if Buhari has been indicted in any money laundering charge(s),what if he is current C in C,with one of his minster buying an amoured car worth over 250 million dollars,the immigration job scam where the innocent fresh graduates"had to pay N1000 each"so as to"write a death test"all because they were looking for a legitimate job,yet,these minsters are walking about free?

What if his wife was indicted in any money laundering charge(s),what if his media and publicity manager is standing trial for money laundering?

What if he is the incumbent president and hasnt done a single meaningful thing other than"prevent corruption in disbursement of ferterlizers"?

What if under his watch the insurgency in the country has escalated and more lives are lost daily?Despite ruling the country for Six years?

What if he has made infamous statements like"stealing is not corruption"?or"my generation has failed you"?

I can imagine what GEJ bootlickers will have been saying by now,but thank gracious,Buhari has an impeachable character.

Buhari till you all GEJ paid goons swallow pen.


Febuhari is the date

I don't take anyone or anything that associate's with GEJ seriously.









Embrace the change!

What is/are your reason(s)for wanting to vote GEJ please?

Petty politics!OP,you heard or you read?Do your home work first,have your fact(s)at hand before creating any thread.

Some of you should leave Buhari alone.






Shalom
