I sense pain in Lair Muhammed's response

Not pain my bro.....but MATURITY

I thought they said Akpabio was performing? and he donated how much to GEJ campaign? So the clown didn't release money to the local govts to pay salaries? or is he the one sponsoring PDP?

P hilistines D emocratic P arty indeed

Thanks be to God. APC is silently and steadily settling the small quarrels that arose as a result of party primaries so they'll go into the elections as a united house unlike some arrogant and cruel people you know.........

Painment to those who expected Amaechi to quit APC in anger. The dude has just shown he's in it for the long haul

Weldone strong man 'cos it's not easy to face the power of the FG and still remain standing. Tinubu is the only other governor who has done it and waxed stronger. I trust Amaechi will too

The change is here

Very apt and mature response.

so what is GEJ doing with all the muslims he's surrounded with? he just named Ahmadu Alli as campaign director, can you tell us the church he attends? you blame Amaechi and Okorocha for standing by GMB but you know GEJ is dependent on Shema, Yero, Dankwambo for votes in the north. what does that make you the OP if not a hypocrite like the ones you write in response to?

GMB will get christian votes and GEJ will get muslim votes no matter how many bigoted articles are published. help your candidate sell his candidacy instead.

may the best candidate win

all hail the ýoung' and vibrant Ahmadu Alli.

i'm sure the e-warriors are so ashamed that he's even older than GMB

GEJ falling his agents' hands since change appeared on the horizon

God bless Nigeria abeg

HOW I WHICH VPs WERE RELEVANT IN PREVIOUS GOVTS. WITH ALL THIS QUALIFICATIONS, HE'LL END UP BECOMING BUHARI'S ERRAND boy.

Not all VP's are errand boys like GEJ to Yar'adua/Turai or Sambo to GEJ

was Atiku an errand boy in OBJ's 1st term?

was Idiagbon an errand boy to GMB as a military head of state? some folks are too loaded upstairs to be put down. Osinbajo is surely one of them and GMB has a history of delegating responsibility. with him, a subordinate can never be inactive, redundant or useless

I do not understand your point. Are you sure you are following the argument or are you just jumping from pillar to post? Jonathan's work is in UNIPORT. If you feel he plagiarised, it is for you to prove, not Jonathan. With or without the software, you can still detect plagiarised works. Plagiarism has always been detected for centuries. The software only makes it easier.

There are many local journals that were/are not online. I know of many pre-2000 professors whose articles are not online because online publications were not in vogue then. Of course, some journals with the funds later put some of their old publications online. But not all. You can excuse any pre-2000 Nigerian academic whose work isn't on the net. But you can not excuse a current academic whose work isn't on the net.

In any case, google this: http://europepmc.org/abstract/CBA/623600

These are some of Jonathan's work which you can find on the net.

Yes, PhD works can be plagiarised. But it is no longer often plagiarised because of advances in technology. There are different software that can tell the originality of a research work. All you need is to put the soft copy of the work in there and everything appears. An example is Turnitin. This, however, may not really be the case in Nigeria where we deal mainly with hard copies. It is unfortunate that such software are not commonly used in Nigerian universities. Having said that, remember that there are rigorous steps to awarding a PhD. You must pass through external and internal viva defense panels consisting of experts in your area of research. It is when the panels find you convincing that you are awarded a PhD. This is not to say that there might not be few cases of mago-mago.

Another way of awarding a PhD is the Australian style. The completed thesis is sent to two local experts and one experts overseas. You fail your PhD if at least two of the experts fail you. These experts mark the thesis as if they are marking a term paper and they grade you on that. . You pass your Phd if the three of them or at least two 'pass' you. They write a report stating why they failed or passed you. It is also believed that some reviewers might judge a thesis based on their own idiosyncrasies. However, it is also believed that there is a level of fairness if two people unknown to each other give the same verdict.

I remember submitting a conference abstract sometime ago. The first reviewer said it should be rejected for some reasons. But the second and third reviewers stated that the abstract should be accepted with no modification. The conference organisers accepted the abstract, noting that the first reviewer judged the research being reported on what it did not set out to investgate.

see what you said earlier

Jonathan's thesis is already in the public domain. Anybody desirous of seeing it should go to the department of zoology, UNIPORT. Only when the person goes there and does not see it can the person question the thesis.

When Jonathan left the academia, publishing articles online was not in vogue

If publishing articles online was not in vogue then, how could any of the software you talked about help in identifying his works as plagiarized since they were not published online? He could as well have done mago mago without being caught.

I'm not saying he did mago mago anyway. I'm not even interested whether he did mago mago but a lecturer worth his salt should have academic papers to show just like a soldier worth his salt would have wars he won and commands he was assigned and i'm sure you'll agree GMB has no shortage of these.

IDEApro:
Quite agreed.

But if APC is the beneficiary of this underhand deal, I will let them know they are dealing with an informed being.

and what if it's actually PDP?

When Jonathan left the academia, publishing articles online was not in vogue. Besides, you have to understand that his background in the academia emphasises teaching rather than research. if he started out as a university lecturer, I am sure he would have focused more on research. Having said that, someone posted sometime ago links to a couple of articles co-authored by Jonathan. The argument by the anti-Jonathans that day shifted to 'he was not the corresponding author' as if being a corresponding author is an indication that the person did the most work.


While I will not in any way downplay Buhari's military courses, they are no big deal about it. Every military officer attends those short service courses when they are due--unless they are being punished or victimised. Nigerian Army send their personnel to such courses always. They are no degree awarding institutions and Buhari never got any degree from those institutions. You don't need to be brilliant to be an army general, especially when merit and professionalism left the Nigerian Army in 1966. Any average person in terms of intellectual capacity can be an army major general. We have a system where attaining that position mostly comes via years of service and rarely via accomplishments.


But PhD in any shape or form, comes through a level of theoretically/intellectually rigorous research.

One sensible person finally. Thank God you refused to downplay GMB's military courses but do you know Phd works can and are often plagiarized?

Firefire:
Check the opening remark of this thread and tell me the OP is not suffering from mouth disease.

firefire, you can do better than this. The OP ridiculed a so called professor who measures literacy with paper qualifications and he asks him to let us into the academic and scholarly world of his principal who claims to have a Phd.

Now what has mouth disease got to do with that? were you not on planet earth and enjoying yourself when GMB was being ridiculed? how come you suddenly can't talk constructively anymore and are reduced to throwing words around in yoruba to deflect from the issue at hand?

Does GEJ not have any academic work published in his name? if he doesn't have, why not eat the humble pie and admit?

cjeriia:
Beware..!!! Being academically sound does not guarantee 1 being a sound leader.

exactly my friend. GEJ is perfect proof of that......unless if the Phd he claims to possess was bought

Firefire:
Sorry, akotileta

This thread is not meant for educating your ignorance but to bully you to normal reasoning.

incase you're suffering amnesia, the thread is about any thesis, academic paper or just any publication attributable to GEJ. if you have any links, let us know. If not, go back to your coven and let your friends who might know answer

How more cursed is Tinubu rule of 1999 to 2007


Papanpare oni ohun npa aja

how much was our debt profile as @ may 2007 and how much is it now?

How much was the $ as @ may 2007 and how much is it now?

What was the jobless rate as @ may 2007 and what is it now?

How much was a litre of fuel as @ may 2007 and how much is it now?

How much was spent on subsidy from 1999 to 2007 and how much have we spent from 2010 to 2014?

vikyno:
How much was this unknown fuul paid to write this. must you always bring issue out of no issue? Rubbish!

Even GMB military mates who also went to the same institutions he attended said he is a born "Olodo" that could not pass exams.


APC also knew his weakness which I believed made them to choose a professor as his running mate.

APC should tell us what they have for us and stop playing politics with everything.

who are these his mates that you seem to know so well? see the ones we know General Beltson, General Thomas P Carney, General Bill Matz, General David E.K. Cooper and they have nothing negative to say about GMB. pls mention the ones you know. abi they're part of the PDP coven too?

berem:
Jonathan is a certified dunce and a compact illiterate with a ceremonial PhD. I am eager to read his thesis if he has one even if it has to do with animals in the zoo.

I hope PDP hasn't started what they can't finish

Honestly, it's as if this guy read my mind.

where are the links to Dr Jonathan's academic papers? was he published in any scientific journals?

Or is it only America that will know? shouldn't we know too?

Acidosis:
Why?
because he increased minimum wage from N7k to N18,000?

i wish that was it

Acidosis:
Lol.. Nigerians and stupidity
lol

Education may never yield better governance. The most stu. pid state governor Edo state has ever produced was/and still a Prof.

This is so true in Jonathan's case

Opinedecandid:
All in all, this is how sane, intelligent, hardworking and optimistic people talk. Not like the old general's e-dogs would stop at nothing in laying claims to the fact that they are 'perfect', therefore, can fix Nigeria overnight!

Story for the gods. who has ever laid claims to perfection if not PDP that has being boasting that it'll rule Nigeria for 60years?

OP, you want to give the witches of the PDP coven heart attack o. Do you know how they've fasted, conjured and wished for squabbles to engulf APC following all the primaries? rather it's their coven that has been receiving numerous spiritual and physical attacks causing terrible divisions among them.

God bless Abe, Amaechi and others for their maturity

johnbosco97:
With all his intelligence and education, he agreed to be VP to a cattle rearer who failed all his exams. Chai Tinubu Tufiakwa. Osibanjo ndo oo.

At least Buhari got to the pinnacle of his military career.

did you say the same thing to Ekwueme whom with all the education he acquired decided to be VP to a grade 2 teacher called Shagari?

wirinet:
And Jonathan is a product of what? Merit? Are you telling us he was the most qualified vice presidential candidiate in 2007? He was the most performing governor in the whole of the south south and south east.

These questions you're asking....diaris goduu oo...

If not for error and godfatherism, a region that has the likes of Atedo Peterside, Odein Ajumogobia etc and the one chosen for us was GEJ. he's truly one damn lucky son of a gun

wirinet:
And you have evidence that General Buhari did not pass his military exams? Please show us. Does it not sound strange that this allegation is coming out 30 years after the general retired from the army? How come non of his mates or seniors ever made such a spurious allegation?

In the history of electioneering in Nigeria, which politician had ever made a speech on policy analysis that enumerates how he/she will tackle Nigeria's problems? Before you voted Jonathan in 2011, what policy analysis did he make that enumerated how he would solve Nigeria's problems and what policy analysis is he making now for the next election?

And Jonathan sounds and look more brilliant?

@ the bold.

maxtamazin:
Nonsense. These only shows that he should be our attorney general not a VP candidate. I don't wanna see his office, I want to hear his policies. Why r we deceiving ourselves? am most disappointed in the youths., we shld be asking questions from the candidates both apc and pdp, not fighting each other. What are their policies?

since being an accomplished lawyer means he can't be VP, may i ask you why our accomplished zoologist isn't tending to animals in the zoo instead of ruining the nation's economy from aso rock?

What policy is driving Jonathan's campaign other than mudslinging at GMB?

waternogeteneny:
Where did the big apple desktop come from, surely not from his modest pastor or Professor jobs.


I suspect Amaechi Rivers State loot and Tinubu Lagos State loot.


It appears the Pastor is already enjoying the nations loot with this make over of his alleged office.
