hey man you are the dulardino here what's my business with what BUHARI is saying on the video you posted to me ? I repeat, buhari is better than Atiku. read this article and see how your pdp destroyed Nigeria.

I asked him when most of you were analyzing that heretic message that “Jonathan is fulfilling prophecy”. I asked a simple question: “Which prophecy is Ex- President Jonathan”? Pastor Bosun went ahead to say “even if the Islamic party (APC) presents a Christian Governor in Lagos, you must not vote for him, you must vote for the other party (PDP). Wait, who was using religion?
Ex- President Obasanjo removed Senate Presidents at will, removed any opposing voice, removed Fayose for a small insult, and removed Ladoja with thugs in Ibadan. Who are you calling “DICTATOR”? BUHARI.
Ex-President Obasanjo withheld Lagos State fund for 3 years, not minding how Lagosians would eat, Yaradua got there and released the fund.
NASS members were abusing President Buhari openly, messing up everything at will; Gov. Fayose has been abusing President Buhari for 4 years now. Not a single State in Nigeria has been denied their constitutional rights because of politics till date, all their funds, Paris fund and bail out, FAAC etc. But who is the DICTATOR? BUHARI.
Ex-President Jonathan ensured that NASS opposition members were locked out including Tambuwa the Speaker of the house. They had to climb gate to gain access.
Jonathan empowered OPCs in Lagos and they were destroying anything in Ikorodu to Ojota that looked like opposition party. Orga of DSS was used to invade APC secretariat, Journalist arrested and Newspapers siezed, we forgot all these….
Ekiti was militarised, Fayose was given power from Aso rock to order Military guys at will. Fayemi the incumbent at that moment was rendered powerless that he was shouting when Police commissioner was used by PDP and a guy was shot…All these videos and pictures are still here (google is your friend). But who is the dictator? BUHARI.
Ex-President Jonathan met FX+ECA at $62 billion+. He DEPLETED it to less than $30 Billion in 5 years Jonathan sold crude oil for 5 years at an average of $100 per barrel of 2.2 million daily (2010-2014). Did he add a DIME to Nigeria purse in 5 years? NO.
Buhari the ILLITERATE sold oil at an average of $50 of less than 700,000 barrel at some points because of militancy, yet had moved that FX to $47 Billion in 3 years.
Don’t say how much did he borrow if you don’t even have the figure borrowed between 2010-2015 without adding a dime to FX.
Who is the ILLITERATE? BUHARIIII. Jide Omokore, Aluko and oil goddess Alinson made an oil deal of N1 trillion and chose not to remit to Nigeria under GEJ. Did anyone raise eyebrow?
INTEL of Ex-Vice President Atiku refused to remit to Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA), not until last year that “ordinary” Hadiza the NPA boss challenged INTEL and insisted the funds must be remitted.
A Christian Professor had been leading JAMB all through Obasanjo to Jonathan yet for 40 years of JAMB; only N52 Million was remitted to FG.
A Muslim Professor who was appointed just in two years of handling JAMB remitted over N15 Billion. FIFTEEN BILLION. So who is following after righteousness?
For five years of Okonjo Iweala was paying over 45,000 ghost workers unabated, yet just within 3 years, “ordinary” Kemi Adeosun removed such nonsense…I ask again who is more effective?
Ordinary Abuja metro lane took 11 years from OBJ period that he INITIATED it…Ordinary intra-city metro lane o, but President Buhari that finished is within 3 years is the failure abi?
“Which project did President Buhari INITIATE and COMPLETE in 3 years yen-yen-yen”.
Mention any major project INITIATED AND COMPLETED in 3 years of Ex-President Obasanjo, or Ex-President Yar’Adua or Ex-President Jonathan?
So on what parameters are you using to judge 3 years of President Buhari INITIATING AND COMPLETING? Even PDP can’t finish their own secretariat let alone that which belong to NIGERIA.
Lagos-Ibadan road since Ex-President Obasanjo era till Ex-President Jonathan could not be finished. In 3 years of President Buhari, the road is receiving serious attention. Ask those who ply that road and those who go for Holy Ghost Congress monthly about the difference in pace of work. Wait, even Otuoke road in Bayelsa had to wait till President Buhari now starts to do the road. Who is the failure? Can it be BUHARIIII.
What about “Almajiri School in the North? WHERE exactly are these Schools SITUATED in the North? OK, show us the picture.
Emm, 2nd Niger Bridge? Lol, they completed it on the MAP, yet Fashola is on it PHYSICALLY now.
Did Buhari fail on security issue in Benue? YES. Did others before him fail on the same security issue in Benue? YESSS. So where did you get all these noise of “Fulani President” is helping herdsmen?
Who was the President during Jos crisis, herdsmen killing people in Zamfara in 2013, Odi massacre, Kaduna crisis? You think death suddenly started because President Buhari was a Fulani man? That he failed in that is one thing, but that YOU are making a narrative of “Fulani President” is giving herdsmen power is funny.
January 1, 2018 in Omoku, Rivers State, Christians were coming from Church; cultists from the South South killed their own people. You know why there was no serious noise by CAN and you? You could not link it to President Buhari’s herdsmen or Fulani herdsmen. The same WIKE that did not drop a million to support the families of those bereaved in his constituency (State) went to Benue State to donate N20 Milliion and you hailed him
Kidnapping of School children in Lagos; Badoo issue in Lagos; Crisis in Kaduna. Who did you call on? Ambode the Governor of Lagos and El-Rufai of Kaduna. When crisis happened in River State and Benue State, who did you shout about? President Buhari the herdsmen. What about your Bishops, Pastors and Imans that made Aso Rock their abode between 2010-2015? What did they negotiate for the body of Christ or common citizens? Yes, they got their jets; they got waivers and Universities all PERSONAL. Now that the tap to fuel their jets and lifestyles had stopped, all they tell you from the pulpit is “LIES and Prophelying“. Your anointed ones keep saying ANNOYING THINGS, yet you can’t query their lies?
Wait, I remember again your problem with President Buhari fighting corruption selectively. So, mention ONE name among those in EFCC case without a case to defend. If your hero Presidents had fought corruption with one leg, by now shebi it is the second leg that President Buhari will be fighting.
So what is your problem with the corrupt facing the music? Oh, how about blablablabla. If President Buhari did not catch them, somebody else will. But stop crying in defence of the corrupt being asked to face the music. If your uncle is corrupt, tell him to face it, and stop shouting how about other thieves.
I know you lost your job because Ex- President Jonathan lost out and your job with Mama Patience was terminated. But stop using your personal loss as a yardstick for Buhari’s achievement.
Under your hero, several young Nigerians were SCAMMED by Boro collecting money from them for Job, in the process killing many young Nigerians. Ex-President Jonathan cannot even sack him. So what do you want the families of those who died when Ex-President Jonathan scammed them of Jobs to do? Stop crying and face life.
For your information, all those lies about “hidden agenda” can only fly on you because they know you are biblically illiterate. I even saw somebody hailing Femi-Fani Kayode for being the voice for the Church. Haaaaaa, abomination. Abeg make I stop, come dey collect your abuses in packs. After all your abuse, na President Buhari I go still vote for.

Atiku partake in most of the problems in Nigeria . Finally, the failure of pdp made BUHARI A STAR AND AN ALTERNATIVE IN 2015. So , blame pdp for herdsmen and farmer fight, bokoharam, poverty and underdevelopment of this beautiful nation because they wasted our 16 years .

safarigirl:
corruption is a trait in 98% of Nigerians

PDP or APC, all of them are corrupt. Let us stop going sanctimonious in this country as if the entire country isn't rotten.

The Police men collecting bribes are not in PDP. The fuel attendants that tamper with the pumps to cheat people are not in PDP. The housemaids stealing from their employers are not in PDP. The customs officers at the ports, collecting bribes to release banned products are not in PDP. The directors in civil service collecting bribes to secure jobs for others are not in PDP. The okada men, inflating the price of trips are not in PDP. The banker siphoning funds from customers accounts are not in PDP. The lecturers collecting bribes to pass students are not in PDP

Ganduje is not in PDP
Oshiomole is not in PDP
Babachir Lawal is not in PDP
Timipre Sylva is not in PDP
Tinubu is not in PDP
Orji Uzor Kalu is not in PDP
Akpabio is not in PDP
Osibanjo is not in PDP


These are some faces of corruption that we see everyday. These people are not PDP members, a Nigerian that is not corrupt is a rare find these days. Even the few who want to stay out of corruption, wallow in poverty. They are ridiculed at work, they are sabotaged at work .


The sooner we all stop deceiving ourselves in this country and realise that this talk of corruption is useless in a hopelessly corrupt nation, the faster we will move forward with solutions.

The orientation of an average Nigerian is terrible and encourages corruption. This has nothing to do with any party
abeg ipob, tell me how sinbajo take CORRUPT. Because he signed cheque without the approval of the parliament that refused to perform thier duty.So you want the people at the idp camp to die of hunger .

The presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Donald Duke, has said the corruption in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would not allow any candidate who emerges president from the party to perform.

He said a candidate’s good intentions were not enough to help them perform under the PDP should they win the ticket of the party.

Duke, who was the Governor of Cross Rivers state under the PDP, spoke in Lagos on Thursday.

“Even if I emerge the PDP presidential candidate and win the election, the huge baggage the party carries will not allow me to do well.

“The corruption is huge. You need to be completely unshackled to perform amidst such obstacles without being pulled down,” he said.

He emphasised that his statement was not made out of the intention to score political point but a fact he knew being a former member of the party.

PoliticsReasons Islam Is Causing More Trouble To The World by walefresh3(op): 1:27pm On Nov 18, 2018
Islam is not a religion of peace.

Christianity is also not a religion of peace.

But, most people in both religions are generally peaceful.

More specifically, bringing up the doctrine of Christianity is a terrible rebuttal to justify the doctrine of Islam.

That is like saying, "Fascism is not a good political ideology. Well, Communism isn't any good either. So, Fascism is not that bad after all."


One evil does not justify another evil. Christianity's sins do not justify Islam's.
The reason why this article is focused on Islam and not Christianity is the modern prevalence of religious violence in the Islamic world. Christianity is not without its evil but there is far less international terrorist attacks and mass killing perpetrated by Christians today than by those of Islam.

First, let's define "religious killings," which is much more specific than a practicer of a religion committing a murder.
A religious killing is directly correlated with the doctrines of faith. That is different a human acting on some type of natural impulse killing someone.

For example, an Islamic father honor killing his daughter who was raped is a religious killing. But an Islamic man who catches his wife cheating and kills her on the spot is a murder, not a religious killing. The second man may be Islamic but the doctrine of Islam cannot be rationally held at fault for that killing.

Many men with many different religions or experiences would make the same heinous mistake of taking a life.

Second, criticizing a doctrine or a religion is not a criticism of everyone that practices the religion.
It is not even a criticism of everyone who make mistake while inspired by the religions. Humans are willing to do heinous things when governed by a bad cause. Not every German soldier in WWII was a homicidal maniac but human nature tells them to act this way in order to survive in their environment. It is hard to fault a person from traits that comes from evolutionary biology and natural selection.

However, commenting on a philosophy, ideology or a religion is not off limits. Every doctrine that inspires human action should be open for review. The religion may be part of a person's identity and it holds a special place in his or her heart but that does not mean it should be immune to criticism.


Finally, before going into a deconstruction of the myth that Islam is a religion of peace, I need to mention how often people are silenced when they start talking about Islam.
There is a notion in Western Society that if a person criticizes Islam, then that person hates all Muslims and the person suffers from Islamophobia.

In Western Society criticizing fundamental Christians is never seen as an attack on all Christians because there is a lot of bad ideas in the Bible that Christians act on. Therefore, criticizing Islam should have the same benefit of the doubt because the Quran has many bad ideas in it.

The Quran advocates for war on unbelievers a multitude of times. No, these verses are not a misreading or bad interpretation the text. Here are two explicit verses from the Quran that directly tell followers to engage in violence:

Quran 2: 191-193:
"And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah (disbelief or unrest) is worse than killing... but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah) and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists and wrong-doers)."


Quran 2: 216:
"Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not."

There is no rational way to interrupt these passages in a peaceful way. The whole premise of both passages is to inspire followers that war against the unbeliever is justified.

The first verse advocates for genocide against non-believers for the mere transgression that a society worships a different god or worships another god along with Allah.

The second passage is arguably more dangerous because the first passage just advocates that fighting may be a necessity, while the second passage encourages it. The second passage claims that war on the unbeliever is a good thing under the eyes of Allah.


The reason these passages are dangerous is that they directly incite violence in the name of the religion itself. For most followers of Allah, these passages are ignored or they convince themselves the passages means something they do not. But for large numbers of followers that view the text of the Quran as the unedited words of Allah, these texts become extremely dangerous. These passages become all the rationale they need to wage war on non-believers.

This is dangerous because there are millions of followers of Islam worldwide that believe every statement in the Quran is true.
The Quran becomes a direct motivation and cause for its followers to attack non-followers. Rationally, one can understand where the Islam follower comes from.

If a person truly believes that Allah or God himself wrote these words then why would you not comply?

Especially when there are verses in the Quran that say the follower who does not fight the infidel is not as worthy of a follower that does wage war against the non-believer (Quran 4:95).


Finally, when male followers are told that their martyrdom fighting for the faith will be rewarded with an eternity in paradise with 72 virgins for personal pleasure. If a follower truly believes all of this is the spoken word of Allah then it makes sense that a person would commit these atrocities.

Men and women are radicalized by these passages on a daily basis.
No, it is not just the poor kid in Iraq that lost his family to an American bombing run, but also the middle-class Saudi Arabian child or some Western white kid that can find the Quran appealing.

If radicalization were just a feature of poor people, then society would not have much to be worried about. But when Heads of States, college-educated people, and wealthy Islamic followers are all being radicalized, the common dominator is the doctrine of Islam.


Osama Bin Laden, one of the most infamous terrorists in history, was not a poor lad that was screwed by the United States military-industrial complex.

Bin Laden was the son of a billionaire, that received an education through college from great schools. There is no other just cause for Bin Laden to orchestrate such grievous attacks on humanity other than through religious inspiration. A person can rationally tie Islamic followers' gravitation toward terrorism to a specific verse.

Quran 3: 51 tells readers, "Soon shall we cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers."
It is not complicated. The holy book of Islam directly encourages the followers of Islam to inflict terror on non-believers.

So why do some many people deny these obvious truths about Islam and violence?
Political correctness –– our preference to be viewed as just instead of bigoted.

The correlations here are as direct as the terrors of the Spanish Inquisitions and Catholicism and no one is afraid to say, "Yes Christianity directly influenced the murder of thousands of people." A person would not even be controversial if one stated that both World Wars had significant religious undertones.

But if anyone states that terrorism and violence has a direct link to Islam, then there is an outcry.
Even President Obama refused to use the terms Islam and Muslim when publicly talking about the War on Terrorism. I am even a hypocrite because I used the term Islamic follower instead of Muslim in an attempt to sound more politically correct.

That is a problem when society refuse to use terms that are correct in an attempt to not offend anyone. Imagine if scientist could not report their findings because the underlying politics.

Society needs to be able to have open dialogue about this problem or else it will never heal. Society needs to throw away the worrisome about being politically correct and focus on identifying the problems and solving them.

The world of Islam needs to open themselves up to this criticism.
There can no longer be a closing of dialogue where the West cannot speak on the doctrines of Islam because they are not partakers (That applies to all organized religion too, especially the Catholic Church). People who draw Muhammed must no longer be threatened with attacks on their life.

When Islamic women and men speak up about the sins of Islam, they must stop being silenced. If humanity is going to take steps into the future with better technology and more dangerous weaponry, then we need to solve this problem with Islam and gradually to organized religion at all.

If not it will doom us way before we get there…

PoliticsRe: 2019 Presidency: How PDP Exposed Atiku’s Ignorance – Oby Ezekwesili by walefresh3(m): 9:09am On Nov 06, 2018
17Ebiscoo:
The presidential candidate of Allied Congress Party of Nigeria, ACPN, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, has stated that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has exposed the ignorance of its flag bearer Atiku Abubakar, with its statement on price of fuel.

Ezekwesili said PDP’s claim that Atiku will reduce pump price of petrol to N90 only showed that the former Vice President was ignorant of the economy.

In a statement during the week, the PDP promised Nigerians that it will “crash fuel
pump price to N90,” if returned to power.

But in a statement made available to DAILY POST and signed by the National Chairman of ACPN, Gani Galadima, Ezekwesili said the main opposition party was only trying to deceive Nigerians.

The statement said, “Today, the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, reminded us of why both they and the APC are one of the same, fielding a single candidate
called #BuTiku.

“This is 419, and it betrays the PDP candidate’s ignorance of how
Basic Economics and the solutions Nigeria truly needs.

“The country ended 2018 with 4trillion of Fiscal Deficit.

“Where will they find money to slash fuel price? Even if FG had such money, is it because they want another round of Subsidy-Slush Fund that they want to take the country deeper into the corrupted and market-distorting fuel price fixing method?

“The Obiageli Ezekwesili For President 2019 campaign is all for market-determined pricing which will end up more favourable to the poor who have been and continue bearing the effect of corrupted subsidy regimes more while the rich enjoy the benefits.

“This is a reminder to Nigerians that Abubakar Atiku’s so-called and questionable business acumen does not qualify him to run this economy. Obiageli Ezekwesili is the only candidate in the race who has built and rebuilt national economies in Nigeria and outside, with a track record to show for it.”

Rivers State government is rich, but the people they govern are poor. The salary look big ,but have no value when you compare it to state like osun, where you can cook good food with just #500 while you need more than that to prepare good food in Rivers State. Rivers State work force is around 5m, unemployment rate is around 3m. Osun state's workforce is 2.3m, unemployment rate is 480k.

Rivers State being capital of poverty is laughable 'cause even those of you on this thread don't believe it. Apart from Lagos, mention one State in the West that's doing better than Rivers in all ramifications? Take your wack list to one side abeg! Arant nonsense!
