TRUTHTOPOWER:
empty the bottle of beer. we assume that the island has a name so write the name on the paper and put it inside the bottle. cover it up with a piece if the booth and toss it into the ocean.

Write name on paper with which pen...What if he was a victim of capsized boat hence an alien to the island with no name


BTW nice attempt though...

Nicklaus:
Swim na, shooo!

He doesn't know how to swim too...so swimming isn't even an option here...

A friend called me today to ask for an answer to a puzzle given to him in an interview today. Actually, I couldn't provide a reasonable answer hence my bringing it here for your kind consideration and answers...

The puzzle goes thus; You were stranded in an island with no other island close by. You only have a newspaper, bottle of beer and spoilt rubber boot. How do you escape from the island given that you can't swim

Your contributions will be appreciated... thanks

It is only cowards that threaten others at first instance...Does a venomous viper visit AIT or Facebook before it bites...APC is all noise biko

Even Obama sees what APC and ilks can't see here...Transformation is real...support Jonathan for continuity...

JackBaueress:
My uncles who do business at Trade Fair Complex just told me that the market was closed because Jonathan is coming to Lagos for a rally holding at National Stadium today. Is it because the market is owned by FG?
Those living in Lagos,are there any other markets that have been closed for PDP rally today?

Bia Truckpusher wife abi mistress;
Shebi when Rochas of APC did it, it was right to you...
When Shettima of APC did it, it was right...
When Fashola did it, it was right for you...

Now, market people choose to close markets for Jonathan and you're are protesting...Mind you; it is only the market leaders and the marketers that gave such order...maybe it is either your sugary uncle isn't existent or he's an akanagoli for the market ie ndi ono n'izu ama okwu...

The same grade as "I stabilize global oil price"

He allowed the naira to depreciate by 20% from 76k to 89k to $1 and it is now that he will make naira equal to a $1. Someone tells me he is sincere?
Jmain, Jmaine, Firefire, anonimi, sweet ellechrystal, Whynotthetruth, Kenai dein77, barcanista eeee make una come ooooo Buhai is at it again

Boss, I saw this but I didn't know what words to use in describing this man buhari and his handlers...Rochas made same nonsensical statement during their presidential primaries in Lagos notwithstanding that he(Rochas) has been governor for 4years without building or attracting a SINGLE industry of worth to Imo state...Buhari picked up that bug and added to his redundant brain.... I keep saying this; if buhari failed in his prime, how can he succeed in his old age with age and technology against him....I weep for Nigeria if these men should get close to Abuja but God agaghi ekwe ka ngwere gbaa aji...

God save us from liars and propagandists who chant change to deceive the innocent and gullible....

barcanista:
what sort of a scam is that? Why are they so wicked and insincere? Why deceive innocent people just to get votes? Anyway, on March 28 I will do lots of Campaign in my polling unit

Na so I see am bro...but I have set a target for myself on the number of voters with PVC from buhari camp that i must poach...

Bayswater:
We do not need to trade words with the losers. I bring you goodnews from the field. I can confirm to you that the transformation train will continue to roll for the next four years.

Ekiti is on lockdown, ondo is on lockdown, Lagos votes are being cornered, we have made big inroads in Oyo state, nassarawa is now for GEJ.

The efforts of the northern PDP governors needs to be appreciated, GEJ will get more votes in the north than he had the last time.

You can leave the APC losers to continue with their noise, victory is within mile; I can assure you.

Happy to see this report...I Pray for more of this...

I called an extended family contact in Imo state today; I was shocked at the lies making rounds there that APC buhari has agreed to handover to Rochas after 2019, once the latter completes his second term hence they should vote the duo...I did lots of damage to that propaganda and will continue till Jonathan is reelected...it will only cost me airtime so I am ready for them...

barcanista:
Bros, you have spoken well. You also forget to add hat the ANPP once called Buhari an ingrate and liar, while Buhari called them betrayers. Well I don't wish to dwell on that abeg. We have the task to return Jonathan and endorse continuity

Sure the campaign continues till Jonathan is returned elected...Kindly place calls to locals too; they are the major voters who will defy all odds simply to vote...

Define common sense in your own understanding?

Who is Tinubu, Dele Momodu, Amechi, El-Rufai to you in line with good governance and democratic principles?

Are you non-partisan...where you forced to comment here?

NgeneUkwenu:
I pity this guy called barcanista....running from pillar to post trying to justify a misstep!
I wonder what you would write on Monday after it must have been clear your one time admired General is coasting to Victory!!!
Brace up, GMB is your next president!!!

Only fuuls refuse to move away from their previous convictions in the presence of superior information...

Remember, Tinubu announced to us all that buhari is a destabilizing agent; a poison to Nigerian polity...

El-Rufai marked buhari as being insensitive to Nigeria diversity...

Dele Momodu saw buhari's presidential ambition as a slap on our national consciousness and memory...

Amechi warned against APC; saying that charity begins at home...the change should be seen in their person and their state first...

Buhari announced Tinubu and all ACN governors including fashola, Fayemi, Aregbesola, etc as corrupt treasury looters...

Today, they are dancing and singing with buhari...who's deceiving who here....

Nikapetrelli:
Lol,but Rukky is flashy,try n watch her movie Gold digging

Ok... let me see how it goes...pm me plz...

Still on the issue of corruption, Buharimaniacs manifest a disappointing degree of naiveté
about what it takes to reduce corruption to manageable proportions in the country, which
makes me wonder whether they genuinely understand the magnitude of the problem.

Nikapetrelli:
Dis babe is too flashy

If you're the babe in that pix...then you're flashy to me too...I love what I seeing...

But Buharimaniacs take criticism to an absurd level when they claim that Jonathan has
achieved nothing since he became President; that a man who rose from the obscurity of
a nobody to become President is clueless, weak, and unintelligent.



fallasy of APC apologists...

I actually wonder how to say "I miss you in Igbo"
He is convinced he is right about it

Some minute vulgarity is necessary in wooing babes...
"I miss you" is simply translated; "Obi gi na-eme m"...

Deconstructing Buharimania (3)
on march 22, 2015 at 12:45 am in sunday perspective

Douglas Anele

Dyed in the wood Buharimaniacs seem oblivious of the fragility and dangers of APC’s excessive reliance on Gen. Muhammadu Buhari’s reputation for electoral success. No matter how incorruptible a presidential candidate might be, democratic governance is a complex undertaking that requires coordinated efforts from various individuals at different levels of authoritative decision-making to make a meaningful impact.

Thus, it is disingenuous for the opposition seeking to wrest power from an entrenched ruling party to put all its eggs in one basket, so to speak, because democracy is a team effort, not a one-man show. As a corollary, incorruptibility in leadership is good but insufficient: it must be rooted in clear vision, creative imagination and cool passion for wise management of human and natural resources to achieve positive economic and
social transformation. Anti-corruption orientation without bold innovative ideas about sound economic management will not take us far on the road to poverty alleviation for suffering Nigerians.

Still on the issue of corruption, Buharimaniacs manifest a disappointing degree of naiveté about what it takes to reduce corruption to manageable proportions in the country, which makes me wonder whether they genuinely understand the magnitude of the problem.

They still nostalgically cling to the jackboot approach Gen Buhari used against Second Republic politicians. Initially, I also thought that the method was appropriate, but now I
am not so sure.

With advancement in Information and Telecommunication Technologies, the mechanics of
corruption have become so sophisticated to the extent that only rigorous forensic investigations by experts spanning several months or years can reveal both the
perpetrators of corruption and the quantum of public funds they stole. In otherwords, given the subtle mutations in corruption, a “strongman” like Gen. Buhari who probably would rely on the outdated strategy he used in the mid-1980s cannot achieve much.

What is needed now is creative synergy between institutions set up to combat corruption and the men and women who run those institutions: a hundred Buharis cannot tackle corruption unless there are smart institutions powered by ICTs to complement their
efforts. Even so, have Buharimaniacs really thought about how Gen. Buhari without cognate democratic experience would fight corruption effectively if corrupt politicians and
judicial officers respectively dominate the National Assembly and the courts? When he becomes President, how will Buhari deal with the cabal of agbata ekee politicians propping him up presently? The simplistic belief that Buhari would deal with corrupt APC chieftains when he assumes office ignores Nuhu Ribadu’s warning that “when you fight corruption, it will fight you back.”

It is difficult to imagine corrupt APC kingpins folding their hands and doing nothing while Buhari moves against them or dismantles their avenues for corrupt enrichment – they certainly would resist him. As a result, if Gen. Buhari becomes President and puts his purported anti-corruption reputation into operation, he definitely would meet a brick wall with prominent APC beneficiaries of corruption supporting him now. I foresee serious
confrontation between him and the band of corrupt politicians in his party.

It is unfortunate but not surprising that Gen. Buhari, whose party is campaigning on the platform of change, has not spelt out in concrete details how he hopes to achieve the items in his party’s manifesto or, more accurately, wish list. This could be due to his
inadequate scientific knowledge of the fine details and technicalities required to get the job done or to the tacit assumption that things “would sort themselves out with time.” Infact, the speech he delivered at Chatham House on Thursday, February 26, creates the impression that the retired general has not thought through systematically how he would confront the challenges of governance as a civilian President: it is filled with general statements of hopes and aspirations without specific details about how at least one of the items in his to-do list can be actualised. Moreover, some of his claims contradicted
what he said earlier at different occasions.

For example, he acknowledged that democratic transition in Africa is problematic; yet, he and his party leaders have severally threatened anarchy and forming a parallel
government if the upcoming elections did not favour their party. On the Boko Haram insurgency, Gen. Buhari promised to deal with the problem decisively if elected President and commander-in-chief; but he was the same person that recommended amnesty for the Islamic terrorists and sharply criticised President Jonathan’s government for attacking them militarily. He claims that he is a former military dictator who has now
become a democrat willing to govern according to constitutional norms, but his incendiary remarks epitomised in the threat that if what happened during the 2011 elections should happen again “dogs and baboons would be soaked in blood” paint a different picture altogether.

It is contrary to well-known principles of psychology that a rigid seventy-three years old retired soldier and devout Muslim who had imbibed the command-and-obey mentality of the military can completely metamorphose into a democrat without residues of the former attitude lurking somewhere in his subconscious. So, despite the insincere claims of Buhari’s supporters in this regard, it is simply unrealistic, based on what is scientifically known about the psychology of entrenchment with advancing age, to think that Gen. Buhari is completely free from his dictatorial proclivities. As the saying goes, a
leopard does not change its spots overnight, which means that Gen. Buhari would still manifest authoritarian tendencies if elected President.

Let me gradually close this discourse by calling attention to the shameful, slothful, and hate-filled attitude of Buharimaniacs to President Jonathan and to anyone who
questions the hyperbolic myth that one man, Gen. Buhari, can bring about the kind of positive change Nigeria needs at this time without restructuring the lopsided federation
we have now. Clearly, there is no doubt that Jonathan has made several mistakes for which I have criticised him over the years in this column. I still stand by those criticisms.

But Buharimaniacs take criticism to an absurd level when they claim that Jonathan has achieved nothing since he became President; that a man who rose from the obscurity of a nobody to become President is clueless, weak, and unintelligent.

The campaign of calumny against Mr. President is so severe that I cannot but be thoroughly disgusted by the incapacity of Buharimaniacs to see any of his positive
attributes or acknowledge his achievements in agriculture, infrastructure, power sector reforms, education, minimisation of the phenomenon of federal ghost workers, political re-engineering and so on. That is the major reason why I support his quest for re-
election, and he deserves plaudits for absorbing the campaigns of calumny with humility, grace and philosophical equanimity.

As a corollary, Buharimaniacs believe strongly that anyone who does not support Gen. Buhari must have been bribed or is looking for political appointment! Only those fanatically supporting Buhari are clean and morally upright. All that is nonsense; it is symptomatic of intolerance of the ISIS kind, constipated imagination and intellectual kwashiorkor. Faceless scallywags have insulted me for preferring Jonathan to Buhari.
But why should any rational person expect everyone to support Jonathan or Buhari exclusively? In a complicated matter like choosing a President, must everyone prefer the same candidate?

Why do Buharimaniacs insult and hate those who question Gen. Buhari’s suitability for President at this time considering his age, errors of judgement and dictatorial antecedents? Part of the answer is the kind of cult following Buhari attracts to himself; another is APC’s single-minded agenda of dislodging PDP from power at all cost. Buhari and his cohorts are so focused on victory, so intoxicated by sloganeering and adulation from crowds at campaign rallies that they have neglected the imperative of formulating realistic and implementable programme that would effectively differentiate APC from the ruling PDP. For me, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, inspite of his mistakes, is preferable to Gen. Buhari for the position of President; no amount of vicious obloquy will make me change my mind on this. Concluded.

Learn to comport yourself well in public... merry Sunday bro...

francizy:
Bro, have you ever seen robots learning in classrooms? I know you haven't because they are rather programmed so I'll advise you to stop trying to lecture online-bots because it's a waste of time and energy.

A times I won't know whether to curse or cry at some posts here...People display crass ignorance and insist on it...

Personally, I come here to relax, learn, unlearn, relearn and promote my candidate; Jonathan based on facts...When I see where he goofed, I don't comment and won't even derail or distort the fact but some see it as their prerogative to distort and derail threads and facts albeit stu.pid.ly...By the time, they bounce on a thread; knowledgeable folks who would have posted informative comments will just bolt away in frustration of the childishness on such threads...

Utter rubbish get a hold of 13 years of Nigeria military rule that book will solve your ignorance. Dude you fall for the re-basing hogwash too. Dude your economy is in shambles after elections you guys will know the damage this administration has done on the economy. On religion we know the guys going up north to say osibanjo wanna Christianize Nigeria while they come down south to sell the Islamization lines. Who was the petroleum minister when the warri and kaduna refineries were built? Irrespective of you trying to twist the fact, it was on record that buhari led the army that chase maitainsine beyond our borders to chad.

Bro, just a little clarification before I move on...All the evidence including newspaper publications has been circulating in this forum for long...anomini and agabal23 can help you with some....

1)Buhari signed and started export of crude abroad and import of refined petroleum back into country as head of state...

2)Our railway collapsed under buhari as head of state...

3)Out of the 75,000 graduates under buhari as head of state; 70,000 were unemployed...

4)Corruption did not reduce rather he was jailing preceived enemies in the name of fighting corruption...eg Jokolo & Awwal confirmed corrupt practises were not reprimanded even for a second but fela was in jail for legitimate earning of dollars brought home...

5)Buhari used physical and brutal force to control price of goods and services as against basic economic principles known to any student....

6)Private companies and industries closed down because of his myopic and unfriendly business directive and policies hence unemployment and starvation grew...

7)Buhari enforced retroactive laws to kill youths just to get back at perceived hostile ethnic group...

Buhari campaigned against his country as head of state in OAU just because a Fulani man from Niger republic was contesting too...

9)Maitasine existed only in few villages less than a local government and their major weapon was bow and matchet but boko haram is in 3states using bombs and other sophisticated weapons and technology.... Do they seem same to you....

10)Several governments before buhari fought Maitasine...the group wasn't eliminated but was suppressed... Mind you, everybody supported buhari's clampdown on maitasine but buhari, APC, and borno & northern leaders didn't support Jonathan's clap down on boko haram hence the numerous sabotage of his efforts...

11)Finally, outside RELIGION and ETHNICITY, there's NO OTHER SINGULAR reason why the northern masses cum almajiri are supporting buhari....

Merry Sunday....
