Gbawe: Look, OP is a stone-cold bigot who is just revealing his fears on this thread. He hates and vilifies Yorubas 24/7 yet he is now concerned with who they will vote for or not vote for. It is only the beginning for tribalists like the OP who refuse to live in the real world. The things/people his ilk hate passionately will rise to the top in 2015 because it is never a winning strategy to sit back insulting everyone and every effort while others put deliberate long term strategy in place to gain what they want.

OP, once again, is merely showing his sort are about emotion, and not intelligence or pragmatism, with this silly focus on Buhari. Him and others have been running around shouting Buhari's name since yesterday. Without seeing what is obvious. Many ultra-intelligent strategist are behind the merger. They are not yes men or blind hero-worshippers even if some of us want to think so. Buhari is an old man - even if a determined one. The mega Party, if they settle on Buhari, will deploy him like Mandela and make issues about all the young generation of 'good guys' he will bring forward. The plan will be to bravely offer superb/radical candidates Nigerians will not be able to resist and as has never been done before from a PDP-dominated ruling class obsessed with playing safe. Tinubu has shown that this strategy works via giving a chance to the likes of Oshiomhole OBJ and Anenih, for example, would have rejected flatly. We still saw OBJ shamelessly effing around with a military relic in the form of Olurin, in 2011, for the Ogun election !!!!

It will be about using 100% proven 'good guys' to take the fight to the PDP that always plays safe and is limited to seeking 'business as usual' tools. For example, no Nigerian will shun a Government that makes it clear it will seek a Falana or Agbakoba for AGF instead of Aondoakaa. It is so one-dimensional and myopic focusing on Buhari. This will be about much more than Buhari if he ends up the Presidential candidate. Folks should mark my word about that. Why, for example, has this development come very early? People should start thinking deeper. Buhari and Tinubu are not the future. Things are not simplistically about those two alone even if Nigerians like deifying names and mortals.

Unfortunately Igbos are not brainy enough to understand your intelligent post. Wait and see what their response will be.

phreakabit: [size=13pt]Well, this is nothing of particular interest to any Igbo man, as to warrant excitement. We vote for Igbo interest not POLITICAL PARTIES.
[/size]
#Eziokwu!

And the reason an ibo man will never rule this country.

This thread is directed at the Yorubas. Igbos should not be the ones asking question and asnwering at the same time. Allow the Yoruba to tell you their view so you can see you have been isolated already.

I am Yoruba from osun state... I will vote for Buhari and the people of Osun are already warming up.

Hilaskee: Political coalition is good but building a coalition that cut across diversifying religious & ethnic lines may cause a great barrier...for instance how can a Western dominated ACN trust an Eastern controlled APGA & how can a Northern populated CPC agree with an Igbo led APGA...How can they handle the strife of policy making, political ideologies & representations? PDP is still strong because it's organisation is not based on ethnic or religious sentiments but based on Intra group & Inter group understanding...All the same, let's see how the merger goes!

Igbo is not in the merger - Okorocha only want to gate crash.

jydeoshodi: The merger of these parties is the begining of crisis in these country as 70% of them were in PDP.

we don hear...

blink182: Giving an ibo man presidential ticket will result in automatic failure. The ibos stink of secession.

Even vp they wont get - they are for PDP and also secessionists.

Good democratic governance... Dont come and ask me how - use your head.

naijamark: Replace Personal Noun Jesus with the Prophet of Islam Mohammed in Nasir's tweet and see how it looks. What would have happened if a Christian tweeted like this: “if Mohammed criticises Jonathan’s
government, Maku, Abati or Okupe
will say that he sleeps with prosti.tutes”

You are an illiterate.

eksammy: FASHOLA FOR PRESIDENT......ROOCHAS FOR VICE PRESIDENT


THATS THE ONLY TIME I'LL START TAKING THE OPPOSITION SERIOUS

How old are you? Sure you are less than 15 years of age. See me, discussing serious national issues with kids.

Sincere 9gerian: If we want an Igbo president or VP, I would rather go for Soludo, Peter Obi, Oby Ezekwesili, Okonjo Iweala,etc but NEVER Rochas.

Lol - vp for Igbo? Waiting to see how that will happen in the mega party that other people laboured to put together while Igbos are dinning/winning with GEJ/PDP.

manny4life: Yeah, where did the 12million come from? Wasn't majority from the North? What has the NORTH represented lately? Look to his words and then look at the North, if you see any difference, let me know. So wouldn't it make sense that North will stand by him?

Abeg talk better gist jor, leave all your talk, when we get there, we shall cross it.

Is North not part of Nigeria? And with the destruction and division GEJ has brought on the north, they wont even allow him to campaign there talkless of getting votes.

Majority of the 20million votes GEJ got came from where? Wasnt this from the padded figures from SS and SE where 95% turnout were recorded as against the average of 45% turnout in other places? Your myopic mind should grow up and get civilized.

2015 will be record breaking in the history of election in Nigeria.

And now that Nigerians have told the whole world that power has not improved, no 40 laptop crew member should come here to type rubbish again - hope this is clear enough.

Nigerian will let the world know when power improves.

manny4life: Exactly!

No matter how people try to sugarcoat it, it won't work.

Better way to say it is "I dont want the merger to work" - this is your wish and it is allowed. This makes more sense than saying it wont work. Are you a party to the merger arrangement? You belong to ACN, CPC or ANPP? How will you sit in PDP or on the fence and start saying the merger wont work? It doesnt make you sound intelligent.

Origami III: Here now is the viable platform for the Buhari-Okonjo iweala ticket.Whichever way it is now a real formidable opposition.

Which one is Okonjo Iweala? The mayor of Mugadishu?

manny4life: Attack what? I should be the one telling you to actually grow your mind and drop the insecurities. What's loft and unrealistic about my statement? That your LORD (Buhari), who has caused mayhem indirectly hasn't actually spoken choatic words? What unrealistic and lofty about that?

Again whether Mr Pat Utomi becomes the candidate or not isn't ths issue, like I said, if you honestly believe that Nigerians will vote for a man whom indirectly through his words and action has incited and caused chaotic problems, then when the drum rolls, let's see how the spirit dances.

How Nigerians choose to vote is up to them, but the majority has shown dislike for him --- FACT. No party will change that, no matter how you and I choose to sugar coat it.

Stop smoking cheap stuff man. Pat Utomi with the political calculation on the table? It wont work and he can't even get VP. Of course, people like him may have a role to play in the government.

manny4life: Well good luck to you and him, I will help spread the word against him, so no worries, Nigerians are not stupid. Our people say, after the race, we will count the distance.

So, the 12 million people that voted for him in 2011 without bribing obas, ezes, Ohaneze, emir and electorates are not Nigerians? So, they are silly? Buhari got these votes without the support of any other parties - ACN, ANPP, etc. What do you think will happen if all these parties line up behind him and there is no
"I have no shoes story to tell"? It will be very interesting.

berem: To hell with the Obi faction! with only the faction of Rochas, majority of igbos are contended. supposing Rochas becomes the VP candidate, Obi has lost out.

Rochas VP? lai lai. ACN that championed the merger will not get anything? What are we going to benefit from giving VP slot to Igbos? Can you ask you people first if they will not vote for PDP/GEJ if Rochas is made the VP of opposition? The Ezes, Ohaneze Ngigbo, etc if they will not collect money from PDP and then change tune. If you come back with a favorable response, we will consider Igbo VP. Otherwise, we are already sure south west will vote massively for the opposition if ACN is in the merger and even more if the VP comes from ACN/Yoruba. There is no time for gambling man - we wont do that this time around.

Demdem: What is APGA and ANPP business amongst progressives? Anyway, story not yet confirmed.

They want to gate-crash...

manny4life: Buhari CAN NEVER be the new head of the party, it's time for him to take a back seat. If Buhari emerges as the head and or candidate, the party is DOA

Shut the mess up. If not Buhari, who else?

Buhari is the man that will lead the opposition in 2015 - with him, we can easily get the entire northern vote without tears and no way for PDP to break it.

With ACN in SW and producing the VP, the entire SW block is sure.

SE is not needed because they will once again vote for Jonathan, the pdp. SW will nuetralize the votes coming from SE/SS - it will be very interesting.

My dear facebook friends, please support my 2015 ambition. You know I had no shoes... You know my parents were farmers and I also used to be a fisherman before I managed to go to school. Kindly vote for me again in 2015....

I am sure the above is what he said in that address. Can someone crosscheck for me?

Roseart: Progressive crocks
Who is this "we" my frind get back to your day job of hawking expired gala and fanta Keyboard warrior, if APGA joins, what will you do? Commit hari kari? No, because then that would require you to be a man. You'll run to NL like you always do and b1tch. Now here's a dollar, go and play Pacman with it

No way for APGA my man... Go and join PDP - that is where you belong.

kITA TITA: I don't trust APGA. It appears to be a branch PDP. Peter Obi delivered APGA to PDP to protect himself.

APGA ke... Na so them dey do merger? APGA can't and will never be part of any progressive merger being a Igbo party. And what value will APGA add to the merger? A party that couldnt give even Ojukwu 5% of national votes.

This is a lie... The ongoing discussion is between CPC and ACN - and later ANPP will be brough on board. APGA will never make it and we will ensure this doesnt happen.

Yomieluv: Good move,the culprits should be allowed to do their time in Nigeria.

Like Henry Okah and Ibori are serving their terms in Nigeria.

Those condemned too should be brought to Nigeria to face the gallow.

What a manner of country is this? What a manner of human being is this GEJ? People committed crime and none of them has said he didnt commit the crime, why is GEJ trying to encourage criminality within and outside the shores of the country? We want to start defending criminals - Nigerians should not be prosecuted again for crime because it is our way of life and other country should understand and live with it that way?

I am sure the Indonesian government wont listen to that trash of stay of executation. Who is GEJ to intervene in law enforcement of other countries? Does he think Indonesia a banana republic like Nigeria where anything goes and where a looter gets 2 years imprisonment/fine of 750k for stealing 23B?

Watch out, those condemned criminals in Indonesia will be hanged soon.

PrettyRita: GEJ didn't say he has resolved power. He said that is one sector that has improved and Nigerians are happy about it. He also mentioned that there is room for improvement. Where is the lie here? How many megawatt did he inherit? How many do we have today? You do the calculation.

You see, for you and your likes, this can be called improvment in your region afterall guys were living on trees inside thick forest just some decades back. Sure it will be eldorado now that we have electric cables passing through our villages and light flashes - it is a matter of time. We will get there soon.

PrettyRita: I've never changed my opinion about the US and their antics. When you are in their good books, they use both local and international media to portray your good side, but when you criticize them, the turn against you with all available arsenals. Few Nigerians were shocked that power failure could also be experienced in the US, and in their amazement they tweeted. Amanpour and her crew hadn't the time to justify the power failure, or lament the poor preparation that preceded the super bowl. They resorted to blackmail and propaganda. It's just like saying: why did you abuse my mother? Your mother nko?
Bunch of clowns. we that are in Nigeria know that power has improved. Wherever she manufactured her comments from, whoever she paid to recite her already written comment is non of my business. She is just a liar. A big one.

And when the Arab fight them, you are quick to support the same US. You are a shameless hypocrite - shut up your amadioha mouth.

Billyonaire: Just as expected. The SuperBowl Disgraceful Blackout and the embarrassment that came with it was professionally covered with a superstory of blackouts in Nigeria. America will always use diversionary propaganda to hide their own instability. SuperBowl Blackout for 35minutes in a country thats over 300yrs old is now compared to Nigeria. No single day passes without 'A gunman killing people in USA' but they broadcast about BokoHaram without mentioning their GunHaram crime scenes. Many men marrying and phucking fellow men, again America is the highest debtor in the world and even the debt ceiling is being raised 'everyday' yet Nigeria's external reserve becomes an issue. Did Amandour hear that Super Eagles just defeated the Elephants of Cote D'voire. Yes, but that is good enough to make news.

See Igbo...

Demdem: Are u aware that the retardeen specifically mentioned Lagos, Abuja and i guess PH in his interview?

How many people would she have interviewed for the limited time the program was to be aired that would have been acceptable to u?

Are u insinuating that those interviewed lied or what exactly are u saying?

I am sure the Okoro man will come and say the guys interviewed are not Lagosians. He would prefer the interview to be conducted in Aba on behalf of Lagosians.

apala911: Chei!!! i can sense american conspiracy here oooo and all hands have to be on deck to ensure the progress and indivisibility of our dear Country. You know it's the same people that predicted that by 2015 Nigeria will break up, am beginning to see them walk and tailor their activities to ensuring the realization of their evil prediction. This conspiracy will not stand and will never come to pass. In the words of IBB a week ago, he said as Nigerians we must ALL WORK TOGETHER TO ENSURE THE CONTINUOUS EXISTENCE OF OUR DEAR COUNTRY. All said and done, Power generation has improved in the country and just last week, the vice president held a meeting with stakeholders in the power sector and Contractors handling transmission of power that Mr President has given a marching order that they should complete all contracts involving transmission of the power generated by the end of 2013 or be sanctioned. we all live in Nigeria, and we know how bad power supply was before now, in fairness there is improvement and one cannot just expert things to change overnight. As an evidence, in my area at Ojo/Alaba/Iyana Iba/ Volks area, power supply is far better than what it used to to be.

Whose hands? Your hands and that of your family members I guess?

[quote author=jas_o]The poster of this nonsense is igbo and we are in it together, shameless, senseless fellow; so myopic.[/quote]They can't do better than that... They are very shameless creatures.

PrettyRita: If I read and understood the post, it maintained that the documentary was a sponsored propaganda, whether by opposition or CNN, to sway our attention from their deficiencies e.g power failure during the super bowl. GEJ is trying especially in the power sector. I may disagree on many other issues, but on power, I will give it to him. Amanpour should go beyond the protection of Americas image to realistic reporting that is based on objectivity.

Why is Jonathan lying to the world that he has revolved power problem in Nigeria. He said power has improved in Lagos, Abuja, etc. Where is the improvement and what can we call power improvement? The same epileptic supply despite the huge tarrif?
