I ask a simple question that all, what are d constitutional qualifications for contesting for d post in Nigeria, cuz i was so surprise when u said Fashola does not meet d requisite constitutional qualifications

Who said so ?

paulemi:
You sef reason am: if a PhD holder can do this badly as you posit, what magic are you then expecting from one that doesn't even have his ssce? Hey, This is the seat of presidency we're talking here. We've only got one Nigeria we can call our own, we've got to respect and magnify that seat of the first citizen.

I'm still hoping Buhari has something to show us anyway.

If buhari contested or contest without certificate.. its symbolical

It is talking that urs pointless been educated and that will be a very very bad example and preceding precedence for the young mind and also frustrating for lecturer

We need role models not rogue models

Thank you

barcanista:
The military should explain the credentials that was used by Buhari to enroll and the ones he acquired while in service. Did the military say he didn't meet the minimum requirement? He has made his submission backed by court affidavit, whoever have objection should go to either APC, INEC hq, the military or the court. I ask again, did Buhari breach the constitution?

This is not military case ..they are not contesting Anu election here

The onus is on the man that is contesting not army ..does he want army to speak for him

He might have entered with fake result ..he should present certificate.. this is simple

Nov2:
Am not saying his hand re clean Ok, but just thinking y is dis just surfacing now this sud have being thrash out a long time ago at least dis not d first time he is contesting. My question is what did he use to contest when he did?

This is politics and the best time to strike is the 11th and they have struck and APC is having halitosis

Serious wahala

DaBullIT:
[size=18pt] WAEC , SSCE OR Primary SCHOOL LEAVING CERTIFICATE / i don't get it , Anyone who joins the Army can not have the same education as the civilian, the fact that he has M.Sc from a War College / Military School outside Nigeria is credible enough for me , the professor of Animals has not done anything good for anyone else since he got there, Educated Professors have lead us and we have seen what they can do , lets see what the so called Illiterates without SSCE or WAEC lead us , its time for change [/size]

The money used for your education should have been used in building poultry.. honestly

How can you reason like this
.are u lie Muhammed

Nov2:
Pls can u kindly outline d constitutional qualifications to contest for president in Nigeria. Thanks

The last time I checked it wasn't a stark illiterate

Can he just present his certificate

This is just a simple thing

Why complications

osebe:
Have we degenerated to the point where we support a candidate without a common O'level certificate? I was even made to get another certificate as a Bsc holder in America in order to work there as a professional...talk less of not having a common O'level certificate.The society won't even give me audience.Imagine this happening in a well civilised nation.It's a shame my people! A time when we should be promoting good values, we are promoting illiteracy all in a bid to stamp our support for a political candidate whose aspiration to rule over a nation endowed with intellectuals like Fashola can't even meet the requisite constitutional qualifications to contest the 2015 election. #GEJtill2019

If I am an intellectual ..I will be ashamed to be associated with APC

Honestly

barcanista:
Did he tell you that he has no certificate? His credentials are with the military, petition the military or APC...or you go to court. The constitution said a candidate must be educated up to a minimum of secondary school or equivalent. Buhari's NDA qualification, he attended secondary school to be admitted into NDA, and even went to attend courses here at home and abroad. The constitution has not been breached, if it was, I will withdraw my support for Muhammadu Buhari.

Now where are the secondary school certificate that he used to enter the NDA or is it the normal northern illiteracy admission we encountered

hansad:
PDP people were good to APC planners when PDP people hinted APC late last December that President Jonathan ws going to contest against Buhari a semi-illiterate. But APC planners were not smart enough to catch the hint until it became too late. Anyway, some people insinuate that it was the usual sell-out pre-planned by Tinubu and PDP bigwigs. If not, how could it have escaped Tinubu and others of APC not to anticipate this Buhari certificate problem before then?

I am smelling another sell out

Season two

Nov2:
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Nija politics becoming more interesting on a daily basis, cuz i smell something fishy, let assume when GMB 1st become president we not this expose, but was INEC sleeping d 1st, 2nd, and 3Rd he contested? Then what did he use to contest? So why is it now that they remembered he did not have certificate? Why is pdp having sleepless nite over GMB if they done there homework effectively and lastly I strongly believe apc is a party full of intellectual so they sud have seen dis coming b4 now, so let them find GMB certificate, cuz i know if it were to b d opposition party they wud have done same and even more.

Just following due process

How who comes to the alter of justice must come with a clean hands

So they say

So buhari is your hand clean ?

taharqa:
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah...................................

But wait again

What is wrong with presenting certificates

This is just funny

NOTE. MY EXPERIENCE.

I WENT INTO A PETROL STATION AND ALL I HAD ON ME WAS 1k. MY GUAGE WAS RED AND I WAS TO EMBARK ON ONE OF THOSE TERRIBLE TRAFFIC. ......I DROVE INTO THE STATION AND AS NORMAL, OPEND MY FUEL TANK FROM INSIDE AND LOOKED AT THE ATTENDANT WHO SAID , 'OGA SEE YOUR METER' I LOOKED AND TOLD HIM, 1k. JUST AS HE STARTED PUMPING, I LOOKED AWAY, HE DID NOT NOTICE THAT I WAS USING THE SIDE RARE MIRROR TO WATCH THE METER RUN, ..TO MY GREAT SURPRISE, I SAW HIS HAND AIM FOR THE RESET BUTTON AND THE METER RUNNIN JUMPED FROM 623 to 1000 and I NOTICED THE PUMP STOPPED. I THEN CALLED HIM AND TOLD HIM IF HE DID NOT COMPLETE THE SALES, I WILL EXPOSE HIM AND BEAT HIM BLUEBLACK, HE QUICKLY PORTRAYED AND BEGGED ME SILENTLY...

NOTE, THIS IS JUST ONE OF MANY TRICKS THESE GUYS PLAY ON CUSTOMERS THERBY KILLING PEOPLE'S BUSINESS.

IF HE SUCCESSFULLY DEFRAUD 5cars a day, that means approx 5x500=2500, and in one month 2500x30. That's about 75k
75k + salary 10k =80k...
He has collected more than an entry level banker.


BE WARNED. IF U CAN AFFORD TO BUY PETROL, TAKE THE TIME TO COME OUT OF UR VEHICLE. THESE GUYS HAVE REGULAR MUGU's

My brother ..I learnt it ....I will first of all buy a 5 liter fuel ..its in my car always I have keg ..it will cost like 480 if it didn't fill the keg bro I will never buy from the station. Again

Secondly watch where taxi buy their fuel

They know the best station

A LADY does not turn trashy overnight!A LADY knows the difference between venting her anger and cursing you....

From op's story, his wife couldn't have changed all of a sudden unless his own wickedness triggered...

Bye!

Some women are nasty ...I'll trained by family

illitrate:
The bible say marriage is until death do u apart. If u know what i mean

No....
I doubt that ..bible said in Bible Leviticus ( king james) ...if you want to divorce your wife ..write her a letter of divorce and endorse

The Bible also said in book of Sirach 25 (Catholic Bible ) that if your wife is not submissive to you as a man get rid of her


So mind what you say

Been a man is not how long and thick your sick dick is but how you take control of situations

To be honest to you..your not in control and she is in control and take it or leave it ..your wife is hasty and she doesn't respect you and above all you have lost your ego and credibility in from of your family and in laws

You can take away everything from a man but you can't take away his ego..when that is done he is finished

She has taken away your help ego

So deal with it

Take a decision and stop crying us a river

Rep042:
My marriage is just 1 year and few days old,but within the last 365 days,I have seen torment and hell on daily basis. We dated for 2 years before tying the knot,she's a nice person,but her mouth is destructive,she has this overbearing attitude,always trying to control me or dictate the pace,and can keep malice,anger and record of evil done to her for a long time. She's the type of person that talks very well,I mean convincely well,but unfortunately,she speaks more negative words. She can talk for hours non-stop,especially when provoked,saying all sorts of bad words.

She has threatened to kill me & send assassins after me on different occasions in the past,though I just ignored such threats.

My wife has been abusing me verbally and always say nasty things at every slightest provocation and at the same ready to engage me in fisticuffs.

She can really say unprintable words such as "it will not be well with you","as you go out,people will deal with you", "you will work like an elephant and eat like an ant", "this your certificate will never yield you any good thing", etc, name callings,abuses,curses etc.

Please Nairalanders, I will like to know if it is wrong or out of place for a working class married lady to assist her husband in paying some bills or buying some foodstuffs at home. Because,anytime she assists in doing anything,she will record it and consequently use that to abuse and insult me whenever we have misunderstanding and or exchange of words.

After our traditional marriage on December 2013,I had some financial challenges,and then my rent was due for renewable,she offered to assist,at first I was skeptical about it ,because I know her kind of person,knowing full well that she will use that to ridicule and abuse me in no distant time. But,then,I didn't have any alternative,so I allowed her pay d rent. Now,she's claiming ownership,saying ..."which house,the one that I have been paying the rent or another one"...

She has done a lot of character assassination & damages to my personality before some of her relatives & family members(Her father and two sisters),thus they all support her & no longer regard me as anybody.

Few months into our marriage,she started wearing butt pads, I told her to stop ,because I don't like the stuff,but she flared up and we had exchange of words. She told me that she has to look good to outsiders.

Throughout her pregnancy period,she wore the butt pads on daily basis even at home,I allowed her because of her condition,even though it looked disgusting on her. After she put to bed,and few days later, I told her to quit wearing that stuff, but she refused,then I seized it,she started ranting to the hearing of everyone at home & neighbors that I have taken her padded pants(aka butt pad) to native doctor. I just ignored her. Few days later, she bought another set.

On Xmas day(2014),she dressed up & wore the butt pads again,I told her to remove it ,but she refused,then i tried forcing her to do so,and that resulted to a serious fight. She tore my already ironed clothes to pieces(an expensive Indian attire I bought when I travelled to India),I tore hers too and forced the butt pads out from her body.

Hell was let loose that day,because she called her sisters,they came to my house and created a very nasty scene in my neighborhood,they insulted,ridiculed me and made a mockery of me,her elder sister who is a police officer threatened to deal with me,she was talking and hitting her hands on the ground saying that,they are going to teach me some bitter lessons in this town. I tried to respond but my Mum,who's on child's visit(Omugwo) asked me to hold my peace. It wasn't easy though,they also insulted her too.

Since that day till date,my wife doesn't talk to me. The only thing that connects us now is the new born baby.

Her words have actually killed me psychologically, emotionally etc, to the extent that sometimes, I loose consciousness of my surrounding while driving to and fro from work , I will be lost in thought, and on a particular occasion nearly rammed another moving vehicle,if not for the speed bumps on the road that awaken my consciousness.


Her words:"if you are still regarding me as your wife,then you wasting your time". Its obvious she wants a divorce because to her,she's still very young(28 years),and can easily move on. She doesn't give a damn.

She has also repeated that same threat of killing me,these days ,the number of calls entering her phone is amazing,most times,she goes far from the house to answer those calls.

Please,kindly advice me.
Thank you.

And after all these you rae still staying with her...nawa.... na she dey feed u

How can you comfortably marry somebody that curses you and cause you harm and threaten to kill u

Well its up to u

I am in support of this ..let them stay away and they Di not have monopoly of violence

Bastardddds

But did Jesus command us to pay first fruit offering and tithes

If this is an old testament law then let us follow all the laws in totality be it old or new testament

That is my rake and take

No selective application

I hate selective applications.. this is an old testament men law

If it is to be applied then all old testament laws such as polygamy etc should be applied also

Then we should be using pigeon f

You see why u need to go back to School................

Chaiiii!!!! You couldn't even comprehend that simple "Metaphor"- You are a living dead(Oku ori iduro)......

Look at how shivering you are street urchin!!! just on the basis of being called a living dead and funny enough, d same street urchin is shouting war war

I don't need to threaten you low-lifer, Yorubas are naturally born with this special faculty of winning a war without going into a war

Yorubas fought Babangida regime till Abacha finally died, single-handedly you know. They eventually fell...............

The right time to throw you and your likes out of this prosperous nation ll soon be here

Business men indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When their own villages called cities are left without any meaningful developments

let me dishonourably and disrespectfully burst your Igbotic bubbles, I did my NYSC in Abuja with a particular establishment where I have access to the actrocities of your brothers who owns boutiques and other little businesses. The lives of your igbos brothers turned out to be our foot mats every morning; got killed every night; night robbery gone wrong.

If you are in doubt, go to two popular Police Commands in Abuja for the next 5 days with your camera(you won't be permitted to use it but u could find your way round it) and see how saddening it is to be born into a tribe that find nothing good in life than armed robbery/stealing any social vices.

So long a letter

That man is too childish ..I regret ever talking with him

What am saying is this: Ada or no Ada, the individual is what is important. Not the title. If Ada is going to cause you long lasting sadness, wouldn't you act discretionally? Anyways, no need for anymore arguement. Best of luck to prisiluv on whatever decision she chooses.

I talk from my position as a father . That's all

Parental consent is very vital

FolarinLondon:
Sorry!!! I thought I was having a chat with a learned person unknown to me that you are just a street urchin. Bookmark this page now cos sooner than you expected, you ll come back to me here in tears.

You are the second person to be added to my list of living deads. Henceforth, you are assumed not to be in existence as far as nairaland is concerned.

Peace out...........

Are you threatening my life ..are you trying to take this to a new level

Hmmm you must be a funny fellow ..look at the way he is talking as if he owns my life

I must have touched a sensitive nerve

The truth must have hurt so don't take it personal but that a fact now

Bounce to your dish washing job

Well your correct dear but as a parent I will advise that she follows her mind but above all she should obey her parents

Is she still at the shelf

FolarinLondon:
Am I surprised to get such response from someone from the other side of river niger? absolutely No. Why? cos from time immemorial, they have always been victimized by other people. They ll just keep their mouth shut and a Yoruba or Hausa/Fulani man will just walk in and attack them cos they know how to sell or trade or look good than others.............

My brother from another mother had said it all, it takes matured mind to see his mistakes and make attempt to correct those mistakes. No matter what you tell them in any terms, they would stylishly dragged the issues towards of being victimized.

The whole topic is all about how Igbos are allowed to flourish in South west but began to disrespect the same people who allowed them into their midst since Jonathan became a President. Must we Yorubas go to war with Igbos before Igbos get the message? Are they any other ethnic group in South West? Yes of course; Ijaw, Edos, Hausas/Fulanis(Thousands of Sabo trading park are owned by Hausas in the west as whole) but they are very respectful in their daily engagements and utterances with Yorubas and that is why we don't have issues with them. Why is it that it's only Igbos in the North and West that always give room for tribalism to set in? These are the questions you need to answer on your own.

I presumed that the fact that Hausas /Fulanis hate being disrespected in their own land is the reason why they don't make noise outside their region too; treating others the way they would love to be treated. If Yorubas are like Northerners, what would have been the fate of million of Igbos in Lagos and other part of south west? Would you allowed to be rubbished in the East by Hausa or Yorubas?

What we are saying here is that if you guys continue like this, there would be another tribal war between Yorubas and Igbos and believe me and you, it would be more disastrous at the part of Igbos. Millions of soul ll be killed at both sides and at the end of the war, there won't be any friendship/relationship between Igbos and Yorubas anymore and Igbos would surely be back in the East then. The question then would be, what is the point for the war in the first place? And you and I know that if you fight your landlord or your landlord was the one that initiated the fight, you ll be d one to go.

Finally, you mentioned UK in your post, i live here and see things for myself, English guys ll never allowed Scottish guys or Welsh/Irish to disrespect their English identity. And if doubt me, please, go on youtube and see where they are maiming and beating one another over little things(Typical is football) that don't really matter to us in Nigeria. Also, from their Prime minister down to a little child here in Uk, want immigrants out of this country, they are not hiding it, they say it publicly. "British jobs for british people" that is the favourite quote from their prime minister forgetting that there millions of students, professional immigrants and of course permanent residents who are paying their taxes without any recourse to public fund while most with british passport live on the taxes paid by these immigrants but that is what they want and their prime minister has no choice than to listen to them. However, it's a lovely country with lovely british people.

There is no where in the world that Igbos would be able to survive peacefully with their disrespectful attitude and that reared its ugly head in South Africa if you are conversant with south African news.

The fate of Igbos in south west would eventually turn out like what they r getting in the north if care is not taken. Was hausas/Fulanis killed during d popular pogrom or other tribal riots in the North? yes of course buddy, tens if not thousands were killed too by Igbos but at the end of it, who lost? Igbos my brother. Who kept his mouth shut in the north till date? Igbos are silent forever in the North. Must Yorubas tour this path? No, why? cos: Igbos and Yorubas have loads of inter-marriages that have already produce people like Yemi Alade, Desmond Elliot, Segun Arinze which Igbos and Hausas hardly shared, Igbos could retrace their steps, be respectful, stay within their boundary and live peacefully among Yorubas. South West is their last bus stop in Nigeria cos after south west, where would they go? Porthharcourt I presumed? Haha lol!!!! There would be a 3rd world war with Ikwerres and others?

Check all my write ups here on Nairaland and you ll realise that I don't use Ibos in my write up. Why? cos I was told by an Igbo guy that it was rude and what was my response? I retraced my step by calling him what seems respectful to his national identity and what would I get in return; friendship and peaceful mind. However, I could have easily told him off and continue to e-fight him online.............. This is how to respect people around you.

peace out

Seriously did you write this epistles

I just can't read it damn senseless and nasty

You allowed us to flourish in our own country ..you must be daft

So ijaw and Edo are now south westerner

Oh I forget you are trying to find allies to help you in case the disaster falls

U missed it all ..they all know how two timing you can be ..so find another key


You helped us flourish in Nigeria .oh lagos the no man land

Why font you ho and flourish in other region or even your region

Xenophobia is a mental case please desist

Girls here in Tonga island don't behave like this
.I am lucky to be amongst these beauties

Michky:
A lot of people don't realize what they really want in life till its too late. Ada is just a freeking title damn it! People refuse to realise that they are not their culture. If they die today, their culture will live on. So why not live a life of happiness instead?. Why should anyone start worrying about burial rights at such a young age. Shocking, honestly. What happened to living your life one day at a time?

Anyways, i like where you said you went to them not really seeking their approval but just dully informing them. I wish there are more ladies like you out there who know exactly what they want and go for it. With the right attitude and respect for your husband, your marriage will surely continue to be fruitful in Jesus name. I wish there is more of your kind out thekre. This world would be a much better place.

Pls point of correction ada is not a title but a position naturally bestowed by God

Nobody takes Ada as a title urs just the position firvthe first daughter ofvtge family

She functions as an aggregator and peace maker

But she can talk to their family

My both parents are dead and we the men all married from different Igbo states me from Delta others from imo and Enugu but my sister who married married from Anambra nobody forced her cos our parents where dead but she just knew the right thing
It depends

If the guy us good he should conscience and convince her parents

But never GI against your family because of a man .....love is not enough

I talk as a parent and I have a daughter so know my position

I will feel bad if my baby won't listen to me on matters like this .....Lord forbid that anyway

I wish her luck

prissyluv:
Thanks for sharing this with me dear.
I see my man slipping out of my hand beause of this. If only they can see him before rejecting him.
My man was not born in benin and did not grow there but visits home when there is need to.He has been in the east almost 27 years with his parents. He cant speak benin well(not a good thing though) but he communicates well in Igbo though not with our tongue. 90% of his friends are Igbos. He is not from a polygamous home. I have seen this guy do things ordinarily me cannot do for him. So open to me. He hardly travels out of his place of work without letting me know. This is a man you can leave kids with and be at peace wherever you are cos you will meet a healthier kids and a clean home... Infact I know i will not forgive myself if I let go. My man is just like a brother to me.

Then try and talk to your folks but if they do not accept him pls don't go ahead . Pray also

Parents don't like it when kids disobey ..nemesis can be funny

COMPAQ:
Based on the ph train pictures I've seen and the you tube video of the ikea train, the interior of these trains is comparable to what you see abroad.

However, the issue now is for how long with all this last? If it stays in the hands of the govt, I can guarantee that by 2017,they will all be non functional. Partly because of incompetent management and partly because I doubt N650 is sufficient to provide the cash flows required for this "business" to sustain itself ie pay salaries, maintain the fleet, and upgrade when necessary.

My solution is therfore to privatise the rail system, whereby private people can operate their own trains, while the track remains with the government (similar to airports).

While many Nigerians will shout at this because it will mean the N65p will have to increase, trust me it's better for this rail to work and for people to have the option to use it when required than for it to fall to pieces again in a few years. As we all know the federal government (or any govt in Nigeria) cannot manage jack properly!!

Any takers?

Your right

They said plastic chair ..I am dazed on the level of pull him down the black man posses ..no body can be bad in totality even Adolf Hitler as bad as he was gave the world some engineering feet

Ok let's assume that the Jonathan is bad but let us give him some credit

The train should be privatized ..65o is paltry for such a distance

The train is comparable to what is obtained abroad

So don't hate good thing

We need to start somewhere and somewhat
