I can't now.

Maybe, when I have more time on hand.

Thanks so much.

Alright

Cheers

dunkem21:
Pls, let's start idiomatic expression and proverbs. They have embedded meanings.

It rained cats and dogs means that it rained heavily.

Dogs and baboon will be soaked in blood means ...?

If you can, repeat the idiom the way he said it. Let's dissect it

Without trying to be condescending, I can confidently say that nobody in PDP can lead any opposition movement.

PDP as a group only thrives where it has access to power. Their bigwigs behave like children born into royalty who never have to fight any battles to survive. This was so evident in the way they were begging and pleading with OBJ to come lead their campaigns despite his open disdain for them. Patience Jonathan inspite of her flaws would do better at mobilisation of the commoners than gej, sambo, mark, wike (who can only mobilise thugs) etc.

The only fear I had about an APC victory is slowly being realised.......the death of opposition politics in Nigeria because those gifted in that game have now being propelled to the centre

But GMB and APC know better than to take us for granted.....because the raw materials to start another viable opposition will be created from the usual suspects

dunkem21:
Ehm, dogs and baboon nko?

Sorry, our voices are gagged.

Just like you saying "it rained cats and dogs in my town" means I'll find cats and dogs lying on the street after the rainfall right?

Pls don't let's start lessons on idioms and proverbs

Suspect33:
the igbos are in a mourning state now because of the outcome of the 2015 election... They feel so disappointed that Goodluck lost to buhari....

Pls wat is the state/condition of your region Share wit us

No one is mourning pls. Its an election, not war.

You guys should stop these childish threads pls.

Pls let this period be used for healing abeg..... not taunts on a whole region

dunkem21:
So, why has he not been blacklisted?

Let me not talk about dogs and baboon.

Maybe gej his friend begged for him.

Anyway they won't blacklist an elder that decided to display some irresponsibility before a global audience. Its not yet a criminal offence

dunkem21:
Neo colonialism.

What happened to those who threatened to make the country ungovernable?

That is Alhaji Lawal Kaita. A member PDP board of trustees and gej loyalist.

He too is a candidate for rejection if they wish to apply it

One hell of a crazy guy.

Only a madman (from the SS) would attempt to stand against the might of a SS presidency plus an aggressive and brutal first lady plus a wicked wike and still believe he won't be crushed.

He's just a crazy man.......but I like him

eCollynzo:
He neutralised South west and the so called Lagos votes with those visits. Remember how you guys were baning on 3 million votes from Lagos? He ended up sharing the 1.4 million votes almost equally.

My bro, I won't argue with You. Politicians on both sides boasted that even Mary Magdalene was on their side. Even gani Adams promised gej 6 million votes and got himself a pipeline contract (maybe to guard my borehole pipes).

The incontrovertible fact is that he spent 4 weeks of the 6 weeks extention gallivanting all over SW begging for understanding because those that know told him point blank that his salvation was dependent on the SW.

If SW really didn't matter in the long run, then it means he was scammed twice

eCollynzo:
Jonathan had more northerners than anyone else surrounding him, yet your brothers will always turn their hate on Igbos.
The elections have been won but it seems the so called winners are the bitter ones.

I don't like the focus on Igbo actually (why should I when I'm married to an Igbo queen and have lived in ss and se all my life?), but I really wished Igbo weren't as vitriolic in their speeches against Hausa and Yoruba. I know countless times that even in my own personal attempts to engage igno monikers on NL in civil conversation, I've been rudely dragged down the hate path. I've also been shocked by the attacks of some Yoruba monikers too.

We all must decide to heal and I wish the visible leaderson all sides can be mature enough to do it at a round table devoid of Ghana must go bags of money.

Someone like me has a lot to lose on both sides in the eventuality of any conflict

eCollynzo:
Please you and Shymmex should tell us those Igbo elites in GEJ's government that misled him

I won't agree with the Igbo elite line. Every single tribe in this country participated in scamming Jonathan. Even he actively scammed himself

eCollynzo:
GEJ neutralised the South west and made their votes irrelevant.
The battle was won and lost elsehwere.

After spending 6weeks patrolling the streets of the SW and making Nigeria almost a trillion naira poorer in the process of begging, ogling and pleading with neutralised SW, I would agree he tried

Those who knew his money wouldn't sway the Yoruba told him the truth but he decided to listen to businessmen like Jimoh Ibrahim, thugs like gani Adams, crooks like kashamu and paper weights like mimiko.

Even if he had won, mainstream Yoruba would prefer to remain opposition than go back to their vomit.

He wasn't scammed. He was simply impervious to the truth

That prof's performance shows he knew nothing about those figures. He was just a pawn on the chessboard of wike and pej.

eCollynzo:
Jonathan has turned Nigeria to a country where votes count. Buhari and APC cannot reverse that even if the want to.

Exactly. The era of ballot stuffing is over. Welcome to people power

APC, take full note

Liegeria:
This line in your comment gave you away as someone who knows the trends in Nigerian politics.

In the first republic, we were in opposition.
In the second republic, we were in opposition.
When Abiola built alliances and won, the election was canceled. We were in NADECO, also in opposition.

When OBJ was imposed on the country, we found ourselves both in power (nominally) but essentially in opposition (Alliance for Democracy).
When PDP rigged SW, it was Tinubu that built ACN, the most organised opposition political party
It was Tinubu that engineered the alliance that crystallized into APC.

Where is Orji kalu's PPA?
Where is APGA and peter Obi that used to be the face of APGA?

The real challenge now is the East has never really played a traditional opposition role. Will they rise up to the occasion and provide a vibrant opposition? can they reform PDP ? Let wait and see.

The PDP I know can never play opposition politics but let's wait and see sha

emiye:
This actually scares me, i hope there will be very little carpeT crossing to APC. PDP MUST survive as an opposition party that can bark and bite.

Who will spear head the opposition of PDP? Gej? Akpabio? Lamido? Orji?

My bro, I wonder o

Nice

No matter how much I dislike the PDP govt, I will forever be grateful to gej for appointing Jegaquin to treat cases of orubebesitisis . Jega was immense

Weldone president Jonathan and God bless your future hustles.

There are pictures on one thread like that

ilugunboy:
That is just it.....the only respite will be a relatively good performance from APC.

Yeah.....I pray the deliver......I trust they'll deliver

ilugunboy:
The bastion of opposition politics is the SW......another oppostion bloc will emerge in that zone....

I trust SW. If GMB fuccks up, it will be well treated.

Odua ma si igba fun......no time

Are u serious?? Is this not the city where they claimed GMB had no admirers or support?

PDP almost killed Nigerian unity

naijababe:
Bolded! Thank you! Once you are lacking in that especially in Nigeria, you are a dead duck. I can see it is going to be one of those nights, I'm out.

@ the bold

I never really took to ojuyobo (i see that name from his first tenure as gov has been dropped ) but I cant discountenance his political astuteness. The man has foresight and understands politics inside out.

Tinubu will never have the impact awo had and still has on Yoruba people as awo's impact transcends politics but Nigerian politics will never forget him. He knew the power of political compromise. An attribute awo terribly lacked.

My only problem with gmb's victory is that opposition politics is dead in Nigeria. Those gifted in it have been pushed to the centre.

agabaI23:
I will congratulate part of the real 1.9 m from Kano, 1.3m from Katsina
I will congratulate US and the UK also. Their economic interest is protected

Imagine rivers with all that blood, death and violence having 75% turnout?? I throway salute for you and wike o

How about the 1.4m from rivers where gun shots started since Friday plus killings (not forgeting the prof that suddenly couldnt read what he himself claimed to have written) and the 1.2million from delta that no one heard a thing about until the man appeared

On US, UK and economic interests, suffice to say that since we're addicted to help from them, they'll always pokenose into our affairs and a weak leader will not be able to tell them to buzz off. Also they don't care if the devil rules Nigeria as long as misgovernance doesn't create 170million refugees for the world to manage.

GMB has dared the UK before.....jona will never be able to even if u give him 100 terms as president

agabaI23:
Just came to say congrats to you my friend.
We hope for the best but we won't be patient with GMB

Dont congratulate me my friend. Pls congratulate the common people of Nigeria who braved all the odds to vote.

As per the bolded, I won't be patient with him too

Below is one of the reasons I concluded PDP is an agglomeration of drunk clowns

The president’s campaign did what it could to try to discredit Buhari, but in a haphazard fashion. One day Jonathan’s people would accuse Buhari, a Muslim, of wanting to introduce strict Sharia law throughout Nigeria, the next they’d insist he wants to legalise same-sex marriage

How could the horde of jesters not see the contradiction in their propaganda?

ejiro2130:
So that useless group call party haven't learnt it lesson yet??
Sometimes justice is too soft for my liking

In China they will hang the owner of that party for treason

The judge who gave the ruling they're trying to twist has even threatened to jail them for misrepresentation and contempt.

I think this blog is just trying to draw traffic. They can't dare ask for any more judicial favours

MzJackBaueress:
I don't really give a damn about your feelings towards my person. I had a task of supporting the General as a concerned and patriotic Nigerian who craves for a change in her country,the task has been accomplished.
To hell with you and whatever you feel.

Dear berem, pls take some tablets of jegaquin and chill. He might have gotten on your nerves in the past like he did mine too but that was because he saw things different from how you, I and others saw it and its his right.

Today is a day for Nigeria pls. Let bygones be bygones

Relax sister pls

Christmasdon:
Why should nigerians vote in a man who said "i will make nigeria ungovernable for you"
where is the one nigeria we all have bin clamouring for? This not fair, and thereby invoking out the boko haram to distabilize gej regime, am asking is this good? This is not good o,! Okay! Lets say as Gmb has won, then the niger delta will be invoke out to destabilize Gmb regime Akwia! This is not good o!

Alhaji lawal Kaita, a current member of PDP BOT made that statement yet he's a gej campaigner today.

Pls you should have repented from these lies by now

ogmask:
Winning rivers state and losing the presidency is more like jesus of okrika and her boo sold their land to buy a molue.they used the time they would have used in building bridges to increase the steam on a state gov.
Now they have lost the centre.

you are here talking about what amaechi will or will not do to wike.
i hail u with my left toe.

How do you guys make up these lines?

If I choke on my food, I go sue u o

ilugunboy:
That in bold should be the collective resolve of ALL NIGERIANS.....

I tell u. After IBB annulling June 12 with all the ward campaigns I did in phalga ward 20 (PH) even as a secondary school boy, I resolved never to take politics too hard again but the campaign of calumny against GMB brought me back into the fray. PDP took us all for granted hence they thought they could refuse to articulate issues and they'll still win.

I wanted people power to prevail and I'm glad it did.

We'll be watching GMB and his team very closely
