Oh I remember Prof Philip in FUNAAB, very notorious for this philandering thing, I learnt he was sacked for it

warriiboguy:
These are my own analysis :
North Central. GEJ 40%. GMB 60%
North East. GEJ 20%. GMB 80%
North West. GEJ 30%. GMB 70%
South South. GEJ 80%. GMB 20%
South East. GEJ 80%. GMB 20%
South West. GEJ 40%. GMB 60%.
Putting into consideration the number of pvc collected I think GMB would be returned as the. Winner.

This look more realistic, one thing most PDP supporters don't think about is the issue of religion, Muslims are more determined when it comes to electoral things than Christians, did you hear that SW Muslims refused to meet with GEJ! 90% of Muslims in the SW will vote for GMB, I am so sure of this, I traverse most of the southwestern states on a weekly basis, I have not met any Muslim who have good words for GEJ, then you forget the RCCG factor, Pastor Enoch Adeboye actually banned political activities in all parishes of the RCCG but that hasn't stop the rank and files of the church echelon to be secretly canvassing for Prof Oshibajo who is a RCCG pastor, perhaps you guys didn't read about the new year message of the highly influential Pastor JT Kalejaye, a close ally of PYO, the secret hatred for GEJ among the priests of the catholic church is there, though Winners Chapel is favourable to GEJ but members have been sharply divided over the issue, GEJ can be assured of 60% of winners chapel members votes but that will be insignificant bearing in mind that some Christian leaders in Ogun and Lagos even organised prayer rallies for PYO just last week, in Lagos and Ogun, I see a 65:35 for GMB:GEJ
In Oyo State, religious factor, power of incumbency, an army of young people who are angry with GEJ and a divided PDP will give victory to GMB, however, money politics by PDP may get GEJ up to 40% of the votes in Oyo state, In Osun PDP will win in Ife zone but GMB will win the state however, I see GEJ getting up to 25% this time around unlike in 2011, salary issues and the heavy dollarisation of GEJ may Jack up his performance this time around, in Ondo State, if people votes would count, GMB will win hands down, the governor Dr Mimiko is no longer as popular as he was in 2012 when he won a 2nd term but as an experienced politician in the art of political manoeuvring, a 50:50 thing may occur here, Ekiti state may be won by GEJ narrowly because of stomach infrastructure and a governor who sees the election as do or die
In the NW, GEJ will get a shocker, just yesterday, about 10 commissioners of Gov Sule Lamido decamped to APC, Kano is about 90% in favour of GMB, you guys also confused the idea of popular PDP governorship aspirants being able to swing victory in favour of GEJ, this may not be true, In Kano State in 2011, Buhari led GEJ with a huge margin but PDP'S governor Kwankwaso was voted in the gubernatorial election, Naaba just left PDP and more politicians of NW extraction I am reliably informed will dump PDP this week including former GEJ'S ministers, Kebbi with a PDP governor is tightly in GMB's hand, the governor hasn't done much in campaigning for GEJ, in Zanfara, Katsina and Sokoto, GMB is like a deity, so 30% for GEJ in the NW is ambitious, an 80:20 thing in favour of GMB is more realistic
In the NorthEast, Taraba may still go for GEJ because of religious consideration but the rumoured differences between GEJ and Gen Theophilus Danjuma may not be a good one for the president since the state is more at the Beck and call of the deep pocket general, Adamawa will go for GMB since individuals like Turaki Adamawa, Atiku Abubakar, Murtala Nyako remains in the APC, PDP bigwigs like Prof Jubril Aminu is canvassing for a northern president at the moment, the state governor Bala Ngilari who was not given the PDP'S ticket is not totally committed to the victory of the party, PDP in Adamawa State today is as divided as a divider however I believe that GEJ will garner 35-40% in the state, GMB hold the ace in Borno, Yobe, Bauchi and Gonbe, but FCT minister Bala Muhammed and Incumbent gov Dankwabo of Gonbe will do a little magic to give GEJ some 10-15% of votes in their respective states, in NE, its likely an 80:20 thing in favour of GMB
In the North Central, Nasarawa will go with GMB, the incumbent governor is very strong, religious factor and former minister Labaran Maku's factors will give GMB an hedge, Maku was not well managed by the PDP and his christian tribe will give protest votes to GMB for PDP'S treatment of their son, Niger and Kwara of course are for GMB, in Kogi, the incumbent governor Idris Wada hasn't done much to impress the State and he is hated by a cross section of the people, religious and ethnic issues will play a big role here so I see a 60:40 thing in favour of GMB, in Plateau State, I sense a 55:45 thing in favour of GEJ, Benue is difficult to predict but I think a 55:45 thing in favour of GEJ might come out there so in the NC, a 65:35 thing may come out for GMB and GEJ respectively
SE will be a 90:10 thing for GEJ, SS will likely be 70:30 in favour of GEJ because of Oyegun/Oshio in Edo, Amaechi in Rivers, APC/GMB's growing popularity in Akwa Ibom and Cross River and the Itsekiri/Urhobo who will vote GMB Delta due to misunderstandings with the Ijaws/GEJ
GMB will win this election convincingly with or without rigging, cheers!

ojobekehinde:
@op,see your life,nobody is even bother to comment cos of thrash that you wrote.nonsense

what is this blabber saying!

ndcide:
That won't stop GEJ from winning.

Look, we don't expect everyone to vote GEJ. but the vote he'll get will be sufficient.

you are a retarded nincompoop

Goodluck Jonathan or Muhammadu
Buhari? Muhammadu Buhari or
Goodluck Jonathan? Both have their
strengths and weaknesses. A
renowned Naij.com guest author
Japheth Omojuwa compares the two
most prominent candidates in the
2015 race to the presidential seat.
General Buhari is running as a
presidential candidate for the 4th
time in a row. The only difference
between his current effort and the
three previous ones is the fact that
this time, he goes to the polls as a
clear favourite. Surely, there must be
a reason why a man who, it looked
like, never had a chance in the last
12 years is now solidly placed to
win.
The reason? Two words: Goodluck
Jonathan.
President Jonathan said he deserved
credit for the APC becoming what it is
today. The president is right, but he
missed the irony in his own
assertion. He wants the world to
believe the APC exists because his
government created an enabling
environment for the opposition to
thrive when, in actual fact, the
opposition rose on the hills of
Jonathan’s incompetence.
General Buhari has always been a
phenomenon in the North – he still is
– but the same could not have been
said of the South until the run-up to
the 2015 elections. Why is that?
Because of the same old gee,
Goodluck Jonathan. Nigeria’s current
president has failed so many times
many Nigerians are inclined to
choose to vote for just about any
form of matter over him.
Where exactly has Jonathan failed
and why his failures should not be
overlooked?
The president’s most telling failure is
his inability to address the
insurgency in the North. For many
years, the president’s disposition to
Boko Haram was: “they are killing
themselves to make my government
look bad”. This position was echoed
by the president’s men and allies.
The belated response to the of 59
Buni Yadi boys in Yobe, the absurd
delay in even believing the Chibok
girls were truly abducted until some
18 days later, the Kano rally dance
that came 24 hours after the Nyanya
bomb blast, and several other
shocking responses to Boko Haram’s
activities sold the president out as
being indifferent to the pains of
Nigerians who live under the
constant menace of terror.
Meanwhile, General Buhari’s history
as a no-nonsense leader proves he
will not approach Boko Haram with
kid gloves or underrate the terror
group, to which President Jonathan
has confessed.
Corruption and government
accountability are major issues in
this election, and understandably so.
A November 2012 report says some
N5 trillion was either misappropriated
or outright stolen under the Jonathan
administration. At least N1 trillion
was stolen under the guise of fuel
subsidies, if the House of
Representatives’ report is correct.
There is the $20 billion the then-
Central Bank governor and now Emir
of Kano HRH Muhammed Sanusi II
said wasn’t remitted to the
Federation Account. Two days ago,
he was on CNN’s Amanpour insisting
the government’s explanation for that
was not satisfactory.
Another former CBN governor, Prof
Charles Soludo, insisted some N30
trillion has been lost due to the
current administration’s
mismanagement. As these words get
written, the government has not
issued a reasonable response to his
charges. They offered a lot of
emotional tantrums through President
Jonathan’s campaign and the
Ministry of Finance.
On this front, Buhari comes out on
top again because of his reputation
of never being the one about
amassing wealth or using his
privileged position to loot the
country. He is generally perceived as
upright. His choice of Pastor Yemi
Osinbajo helped to cement that
perception.
The third major deciding issue for
this election is the economy. The
Nigerian economy is walking on
tightropes. The government likes to
claim it has made Nigeria Africa’s
No.1 economy. The economy was
rebased in 2014. All the government
did with the “rebasing” was to
account for the inclusion of new
sectors like the entertainment
industry and telecoms into the
calculation of the country’s GDP.
This was accumulated over the
previous 20 years or so, but the
government has sold this as one of
its achievements. Pictures of
Cameroon were presented as
completed road projects of this
administration, and an image of a
housing estate in Lekki was used as
that of completed housing projects in
the Northeast.
Four out of every five Nigerian
graduates are out of jobs. Extreme
poverty is unacceptably high, the
naira is seeing worst trading days
ever. Perhaps, the greatest picture of
that reality is Aliko Dangote, Africa’s
richest man, losing $7b in November
2014 alone; since then, he has lost
enough money to make another
person the 2nd richest on the
continent. Nigeria’s foreign reserves
continue to take a plunge. Its debts,
local and foreign, continue to rise. It
is all a mess out here.
This is what the elections are about.
It is a direct Yes/No referendum on
president Jonathan. Not a few people
voting for General Buhari will do so
just to vote against President
Jonathan .
Voting Buhari is the right thing if this
really is about the future of Nigeria.
Of the two available options,
President Jonathan is a failed
president. In a sane world, he would
not even dream to be a candidate, let
alone become one.
General Buhari used to be a dictator.
He has since learnt democratic
tenets having, without resorting to
violence, trusted the courts three
times after losing previous elections.
It is obvious he is in this because he
firmly believes he can be the wise old
man who sets Nigeria on the road to
socio-political and economic
recovery.
General Buhari gets my vote. Easily.
It is the most logical decision. In a
country where money and
materialism hold sway (including in
the so-called religious houses),
those who are able to share dollars
will certainly turn many heads. What
will matter in the end is how much
Nigerians want “change” . Another
four years with Goodluck Jonathan
would be a disaster for Nigeria. It is
time for Buhari.

Is this car still available sir

N180,000.00 was given to all the secondary school teachers in Ifedore Local Government, they totalled about 500, that's N360 per teacher, laughable, very laughable!

If we want to rig election, America will know- Goodluck Jonathan

merry02:
Its unfortunate that some ppl ll sit in their room saying what is nt....Buhari can't win **Ekiti,Ondo,Ogun(margin of SDP nd PDP)even Lagos is 50/50 bt Osun is sure for him

Buhari can't win in River state nd Edo despite Amachi nd osomole own state

Buhari can't win all northern state also**jigawa,abuja,kaduna,Niger,Benue,platue,kwara..etc

I live in Akure, Ondo State, GEJ will win in Ondo State if and only if its not humans that will vote but trees or ghosts, the main backer of GEJ in the state who is the state governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko cannot win election in the state today were he himself to be the one contesting, I said this before, GEJ would have win so easily in the state if the governor have remained in his labour party

Blitz888:
I must reiterate that Equity frowns @ double standard with such strong abhorrence.

What happens to Buharis 'dogs & baboons' being soaked in blood?
What about his promise of blood bath in 2011?
And, what about Ameachi's threat of forming a parallel govt should APC lose?

Are the above not more inciting and violence precipitating than the rather benign and innocuous remarks of PEJ?

Before you come @ me, do well to note that I am 'apolitical'. I don't give a hoot about PDP or APC... I am simply unbiased, non- aligned and free from partisan politics.

You don't seem to understand the procedure at the ICC, somebody must lodge a complaint in writing, since you have evidence of GMB inciting political crises that led to the death of thousands of Nigerians in 2011, go ahead a file your petition and now see if the ICC will not act on it, OK, meanwhile, on March 28, its Sai Baba all the way!

Staru1:
So called ICC can't do any tin.
Boko heram dey since,where went ICC?

all alleged BH sponsors like Ali Sheriff have been protected by GEJ, since nobody have been handed over to the ICC, nobody will be prosecuted now, ICC don't just come around to arrest now, there must be a complain and complainant, but in the case of BH, GEJ have protected all known BH sponsors and sympathizers, he even claimed that there was BH in his govt but has no courage to point them out

One needless controversy that seems
to have been laid to rest in Nigeria is
that the President lacks the
constitutional power to either
suspend or sack the Chairman of the
Independent National Electoral
Commission. He can only do so by
acting on an address of at least two-
thirds majority of the Senate. What
seems to be in dispute now is
whether the INEC Chairman can be
forced to go on leave ahead of the
end of his tenure on June 24, 2015.
The issue of leave and conditions of
service defined by Public Service
Rules remains debatable for political
office holders, many of whom work
Monday to Sunday, putting in an
average of 15 hours daily. While
political office holders like the
Chairman of INEC may draw one or
two guidelines from the Public
Service Rules, they are not in any
way bound by them because their
structure or system of work is
completely different from that of the
civil servants or public servants, as
the case may be. If the president or
governor is a public servant, that
means he is also subject to the
Public Service Rules and expected to
go on pre-disengagement leave!
Section 156 (2) of the 1999
Constitution states that, “Any person
employed in the public service of the
Federation shall not be disqualified
for appointment as Chairman or
member of any of such bodies (i.e.
INEC, NPC, RMAFC, etc.): Provided
that where such person has been
duly appointed he shall, on his
appointment, be deemed to have
resigned his former office as from
the date of the appointment.”
This is a clear-cut provision that
shows beyond any iota of doubt that
the Chairman of INEC IS NOT AND
CANNOT BE A PUBLIC SERVANT.
Interestingly, the current Chairman of
INEC, Prof Attahiru Jega, was once a
public servant, being a university
lecturer, and bound by Public Service
Rules before his appointment in
2010. But once he crossed over to
INEC as a political appointee, he
ceases to be bound by that code. It
is safer to describe the likes of Jega
as political office holders rather than
public servants in order to avoid any
confusion. That is why their
remuneration is determined by
another political body, Revenue
Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal
Commission. They may need a few of
the provisions of the Public Service
Rules as a guide but are not subject
to them. Do we need any
constitutional amendments to further
make the point clearer?
We cannot solve all our problems
through the instrumentality of law. As
a matter of fact, it may be argued
that the problem of Nigeria is not the
absence of law but surfeit of it. The
British have no constitution, or to
choose the words of M.E. Boutmy in
Studies in Constitutional Law, they
“have left the different parts of their
constitution just where the wave of
history had deposited them; they
have not attempted to bring them
together, to classify or complete
them, or to make a consistent and
coherent whole.” Yet, the whole
world will agree that the United
Kingdom is sufficiently governed by
law. The fact is, the rule of law and
constitutionalism (obedience to
constitutional principles) have been
so much internalised such that it is
safe to say these developed nations
are governed by Convention rather
than Constitution. That should be our
dream in Nigeria rather than the
current mischief of engaging
unpatriotic lawyers to look for
loopholes in every law with a view to
exploiting them for selfish ends.
Again, if compliance with the law is a
function of the number of pages in
the constitution of a country, then
Nigeria should have been a role
model for the world. Regrettably,
however, it is as if the more the
number of laws in Nigeria, the higher
the rate of lawlessness. Let’s take
one example.
The United States introduced the
25th Amendment because they would
not accommodate a President that is
not as fit as a fiddle. Clause 3 of that
Amendment reads: “Whenever the
President transmits to the President
pro tempore of the Senate and the
Speaker of the House of
Representatives his written
declaration that he is unable to
discharge the powers and duties of
his office, and until he transmits to
them a written declaration to the
contrary, such powers and duties
shall be discharged by the Vice-
President as Acting President.”
This is the precursor to Section 145
of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria:
“Whenever the President transmits to
the President of the Senate and the
Speaker of the House of
Representatives a written declaration
that he is proceeding on vacation or
that he is otherwise unable to
discharge the functions of his office,
until he transmits to them a written
declaration to the contrary such
functions shall be discharged by the
Vice-President as Acting President.”
It is evident we copied Section 145
from the US. But while successive
presidents of the US have abided by
the spirit and letter of this clause,
what happened in Nigeria in 2010
when we had the opportunity to show
that we belonged to the civilised
world, during President Umaru
Yar’Adua’s health crisis? Some of our
lawyers – the spin doctors,
specialists in casuistry and sophistry
– argued that the provision said
“WHENEVER”, meaning that it was not
compulsory for Yar’Adua to transmit
a letter to the National Assembly! And
the nation was needlessly heated to
the boiling point. History has now
come full circle and these elements
are at their game once more.
And whereas the constitution of the
US contains just a few leaves, that of
Nigeria is actually a textbook,
verbose and prone to many errors,
which some constitutional lawyers
and commentators have identified in
the past. During that crisis of
succession in 2010, I had cause to
point to the superfluity-cum-
ordinariness of Section 5 (1) and
148 (1) of the 1999 Constitution in
the light of the authority of the
President that is singular, indivisible
and indissoluble (Section 130),
insisting that the Vice-President
could not discharge the functions of
the President without becoming the
Acting President. Section 5 (1) was
essentially imported from Section 79
of 1960 Constitution and Section 84
of 1963 Constitution, under a
parliamentary system.
In the present case, for instance, how
can Section 156 (2) of the 1999
Constitution make it crystal clear that
the Chairman of INEC is not in the
public service but the same
constitution proceeds in Section 318
to list “member or staff of any
commission or authority…” as being
in the “public service of the
Federation”?
Notwithstanding some of these
incongruities, the redeeming feature
is that the constitution is an organic
document. It must be read together
as a whole. And so the inconsistency
in Section 318 above is cured by
other provisions in the 1999
Constitution that emphasise not just
the independence of INEC but that its
chairman is not a public servant and
consequently not in any way subject
to the innumerable rules that affect
workers in Ministries, Departments
and Agencies. Here again is Section
158 (1) of the 1999 Constitution:
“In exercising its power to make
appointments or to exercise
disciplinary control over persons…
the Independent National Electoral
Commission shall not be subject to
the direction or control of any other
authority or person.”
The President lacks the constitutional
power to direct the INEC chairman to
proceed on one week let alone what
is termed “a pre-disengagement
leave”. Doing so would amount to
constructive removal in that he will
not be able to discharge the
functions of his office during the time
of the imposed leave. The framers of
the constitution never contemplated
such an absurdity. Jega’s tenure is
five solid years and the constitution
does not make provision for the post
of Acting Chairman of INEC.

Let's now see if ICC judges will collect GEJ'S dollars or be induced with promotion to the appellate court like in Nigeria, however, I expect Fani Kayode to come out and brand the ICC as an extension of the Nigerian opposition and its Judges as card carrying members of APC, stupid people, Mama Pieces, Na only you go waka go join your beloved "fellow widow, Simone Gbagbo" for prison, be prepared Mama, its good for you!

agabaI23:
You have an opinion and I will respect it but I choose to disagree your opinion. Saying that GEJ is a disaster in human skin is turning the truth upside down as long as his presidency is concerned. You are talking like someone who is based abroad forgive me if I am wrong.

You got to know about the corruption because of the FOI which he signed into law.

10 billion: Have you listened to her explanation as to why the agency has to hire private jet? If you have not, tell me and I will help you with information. If you have and you chose to be harping on it, Goodluck to you.

29 billion or 2 billion : The man involved in this was tried and let lightly by the court exploiting the holes in our constitution. Jonathan convened the national conference to review the constitution so that the loopholes that thieves exploit to go unpunished are plugged but APC refused to participate. Since the pension saga, a software has been installed to manage pension funds and pension management has been smooth and fool proof. I am sure you will not like to see such information

Roads: If you say that billions of naira spent on road go into private pockets, you are being sentimental because that is exactly what you want it to be not what it is. About 20,000 km of roads has been added since 2011. Assuming 1 km of road is built at the cost of 1.2 billion naira like some APC states, 20,000x1,200,000,000 =That translates to 24 Trillion naira. How much is our total budget for 4 years? highest has been 4.6 trillion. Total is less than 20 trillion which is less than the 24 trillion. No money has gone into anyone's pocket like you want to be.

Electricity: because you have not seen desired improvement in power sector does not mean the money has been squandered. There has been considerable improvement from an average of less than 10 hrs per day to over 15 hr per day. If you have built a house before, You will understand that after roofing, so much money go into the house without visible change to the building. We are at the stage
Chibok girls: A tragic situation. I wish they have been found but trust me GEJ is doing everything possible to find them. if you think he is not doing anything, well it is your opinion

I will suggest that you don't take everything you read against GEJ as the cardinal truth because you will be doing yourself a disservice.

Your explanations stand logic and common sense in the head, madam minister hired a jet for N10bn, that's $60 million as at that time, how much is that jet sold! perhaps you think Nigerians are as daft as GEJ, your reasoning can only satisfy GEJ and his greedy wife, why was Allison Madueke running away from the house committee if her transactions were not shoddy, so she gave you her explanations in the private abi!
l live in Akure Ondo State, one important thing GEJ claimed to have done for us in the state is the reconstruction of Ore-Sagamu expressway, I made a terrible mistake of travelling through that route last month, truly he reconstructed the road from Ore but to my dismay, less than 10km of that road has been constructed because construction work stopped before you get to Oniparaga which is about 10km from Ore, the road is 217km to Sagamu from Ore, now tell me, if it takes GEJ 4 years to construct 10km, how long will it take him to complete the work to Sagamu and this is his biggest campaign point to the people of Ondo State
Now on the issue of electricity, its possible you live in Abuja or Aso Rock to have been enjoying 15 hours of electricity in Nigeria, I live in Oba-Ile Housing Estate in Akure, I enjoyed less than 4 hours of electric supply from BECN Ltd that handles Ondo State, many parts of Ondo State capital has not seen electricity in 3 months, so where do you get this 15 hours Sir! I even had to buy a bigger generator due to a new freezer added by my wife for her fish business just four days ago, pls where is your 15 hours!
The decadence and impunity under GEJ got to the peak with the death of more than ten young Nigerians in a fraudulent immigration recruitment exercise which has never been queried by GEJ till today except that he fulfilled his job promises to the families of the dead by making it a big campaign event last week, bros enough of these lies, I refuse to buy into your well polished and beautified sepulchre otherwise known as 2nd tern for GEJ, cheers!

Albishir:
The prophet has spoken. Victory for the PDP is assured. This also happened in 2011 when even the leader of ACN (Tinubu) voted GEJ against his (Ribadu) presidential candidate. GEJ till 2019

you will be surprised dear brother about the realisation on election day that GEJ has less than 10 governors supporting his 2nd term ambition, hope you won't develop high bp when you get to know that your sloganeering of GEJ till 2029 is a hoax after all, good morning

“The challenge Nigeria is
facing – on the day of voting,
when you drop your votes in
the ballot box, you will know
who is PDP and who is APC.
It’s a parable; very delicate.
Because everybody plays a
game; we deceive ourselves.

agabaI23:
Mistake, Gaddafi meant well for his people but they removed him. Putin means well for Russia but they are against him. GEJ means very well for this country and your inner mind knows this

GEJ is a disaster in human
skin!!! Am sure if your family members
had been victims of Jonathan's
ineptitude and corruption, you would
have a different view. Pls can you
mention the cardinal functions of
government and also tell us the ones
in which Jonathan has done well ? My
guy, it is bad to have bad leaders
but it is calamitous to have followers
who are so dumb as to suffer and
smile. If a person doesn't see
anything wrong in mediocrity in
governance, such a person should
not attempt to preach to others not to
air their views. A president under
whom a single woman claimed to
have spent 10billion naira to hire jets,
29billion naira stollen from pension
fund, military reduced to mere
political goons, billions of dollars
military budget shared among army
officers to bribe them for election,
hundreds of promising young girls
taken away in Chibok like fowls,
billions of naira waisted on electricity
and roads with the money finding it's
way to Jonathan and his cronies'
private pockets, total destruction of
our socio- cultural and religious
heritage by using huge bribery to lure
traditional and religious leaders to
turn their back against decorum, just
to mention but a few should be voted
out, prosecuted and be left to rotten in
jail. Ah my brother this criminal has
wrecked more havoc than you can
think of in your widest imagination!!!!!!

Charlotte15:
I have said it severally that Jona is programmed to fail. I have suspected for some time that muazu isn't a big fan of Jona. First clue was when he made the comment monkey dey work baboon dey chop, Second instance was when Jonathan was stoned in bauchi state where he was the former governor, 3rd instance was the story in which we heard he complained about the first lady's influence, fourth was when he said on national tv that he had confidence in jega contrary to what the campaign chairman Ahmadu Ali said. The list goes on and on. No one really likes Jonathan. I just wish he would at least be honest with himself. Always strikes me as a jolly good fellow but not suitable for the mantle of leadership of this magnitude. Jonathan go in peace.

Do you blame the party chairman! We are talking about cultural incompatibility here, in the north, women stays behind and support their husbands, here we are talking about a President who is being commandeered by an unfortunate misguided illiterate wife, so you expect Adamu Muazu to be dancing to the tune of Patience Jonathan abi! To be sincere with you, there is no single politician of northern extraction that is supporting the presidential bid of GEJ, those hausas around him are just there for what they can get from him
Even in the southwest, the governors of Ondo and Ekiti States are supporting GEJ not because of their love for him or their believe in his ability and competence, but for self preservation since the duo are completely finished politically should GMB win the Presidential race and I can say with all assurance that the two southwest governors are already changing tactics, the governor of Ondo State is PDP in the open but there are insinuations in Akure that the governor is already putting in place machineries to placate GMB and APC since he knows that a GEJ's candidacy if like an impossibility
Let's be fair to Adamu Muazu, this is a man who was governor in 1999 when GEJ was deputy governor, to respect GEJ as president is easy for him since fate and destiny designed it that way but for him to crawl before his illiterate wife is a practical impossibility, ire o!

The problem is that GEJ and his unfortunate wife don't trust anybody except that person is from South South, Edwin Clark is their navigator, GEJ'S biggest problem is his lack of ability to assemble a team of advisers and aides that can see beyond their noses, I am beginning to agree with OBJ who said in his book "my watch" that GEJ'S team of advisers are peopled by individuals who are motivated in all things by their hand, mouth and pocket, these are the people who advised him to believe that as long as he can spend money, he will have the presidential election won so easily meanwhile they are profiting heavily from the whole thing, they made GEJ to believe that money will do all things for him therefore he has been on spending spree since the beginning of the 6 weeks extension he forced on INEC, buying bloggers, internet warriors, church leaders, traditional institutions etc, meanwhile all these will add little or nothing to his electoral fortunes
Mark my words, the March 28 election will be an easy walk over for GMB and APC

Chief (Mrs) Abiodun Duro Ladipo,
popularly called Moremi, is the wife
of Yoruba theatre prodigy, Duro
Ladipo. She speaks with BLESSING
EKUM and OYEYEMI OJELEYE on her
life experiences and her latest
project. Excerpts:
What informed the decision to
produce your new movie?
It has been my heart’s desire for
years to produce a movie, although
my late husband and I never
produced one. I thank God for the
grace to finally do so even though
Friday, March 11, was my husband’s
33rd year remembrance. Since his
death, I’ve been praying to God to
spare my life and raise help so I can
realise my dream. I decided to
postpone the celebration of my
birthday until now in order to
combine it with the release of the
movie entitled Moremi Ajansoro.
For the 70 years you’ve been on
earth, what would you say life has
taught you?
The elders say that experience makes
an elder. I have experienced a lot
since I got married and after my
husband’s death. Although God has
planned everybody’s life, but it’s just
that He does not give us the
opportunity to see tomorrow. I knew
what I wanted right from when I was
young and that has helped me a lot.
Although I never knew that my
husband would die so early, I had
made up my mind that I would never
marry two husbands or give birth to
children for two husbands. My
husband left me prematurely, so I
had the opportunity to live with him
for just 11 years after our marriage. I
thank God for keeping me till now. I
have had death threats many times,
yet God has been merciful to me.
Imagine a load meant to be carried
by two people being carried by one
for the past 33 years. In whatever
situation a man is passing through
on earth, he should hold on to God
because human beings cannot do
anything; they promise and fail. I
enjoin whoever is in this type of
situation to believe in God. He’s the
father of the fatherless and a
husband to widows. He will fight
their cause. Young women should
not only talk about love when in a
relationship, but should find out good
qualities in the man before making
their choices. Spouses don’t get to
know genuine love until they start
living together. Young ladies should
also wait to receive parental
blessings before settling down.
After your husband’s demise, how
did you cope with the children’s
upkeep?
It was not easy. Whenever the
children came from school, then, it
was always a thing of sorrow for me.
I remember an instance after one of
my children completed her secondary
school education and proceeded to
the tertiary institution. She insisted
on going further but I pleaded with
her to hold on for a while since she
wasn’t the only one I was catering
for. We both wept bitterly because
there was nowhere I could turn to.
She encouraged me to do all I could
because after getting married, she
may not have the opportunity to
further her education. God raised
help at last. As part of my birthday
celebrations and in gratitude for all
the Lord has done for me, a
thanksgiving service has been
organised. God says “a thankful heart
He would make fat.” The Lord
promised He would stand by me and
indeed He stood. He loves me so
much. A woman must persevere no
matter what she is passing through
in her matrimonial home.
How do you intend to celebrate your
day?
I have been to the Motherless
Babies’ Home, opposite the
University College Hospital (UCH),
Ibadan, Oyo State. I have always
wanted to do this many years ago,
but could not.
You seem to be a fashionable
woman, what do you have to say
about fashion in today’s world?
May God have mercy on us. Charity,
they say, begins at home, but not in
this generation. I remember back
then when I travelled abroad,
Nigerians were part of the honoured
visitors. The Americans loved to
relate with us. I had some of them
who asked questions such as the
number of days it took me to plait my
hair. Fashion starts with our
language, Yoruba, which has been
replaced by borrowed language and
culture. The truth is that Yoruba
culture and morals are embedded in
the language itself, but when people
have substituted its teaching with
something else, how would they
know about culture and the morals it
teaches? Nowadays, children no
longer know how to kneel down to
greet their parents, instead they bark
greetings at them. In our own time,
we saw exposure of any part of a
lady’s body an insult, but in modern
times, the unmarried expose their
bodies. Unfortunately, such is done
in movies too. Youths nowadays do
not want to dance to moral music
again.
What do you have to say about
movies in the past and those
produced now?
In the olden days, there was nothing
like movies, what we had was
theatre. Then, we staged drama that
was rich in moral and cultural
lessons. We dramatised ancient
events about kings and their
rulership, although some other
groups did comedy. People have
requested for such plays into CDs for
the benefit of their children. The
younger generation, who are into
movie production nowadays, think
it’s all about making money. That is
a very big mistake they are making.
What are some of the challenges you
faced in the course of the production
of your new movie?
There’s no other challenge than how
to raise the money needed. All the
villages we used as locations were
paid for. Before, it wasn’t s,o but
now, they are civilised.
What’s the secret of your agility even
at your age?
Number one thing is God’s grace of
good health. Some are blessed with
money but good health is the best.
Another thing is that I disciplined
myself from following men around
since the death of my husband.
There was a time I was ill and at a
point, my doctor advised me to get a
man who would make me happy
anytime I see him. He diagnosed the
illness as loneliness and said that I
could not cheat nature as a young
woman. I laughed at him because I
know that if I marry another man, he
would want me to bear children for
him and might not allow me take
good care of my children.
You live alone. How do you manage
chores?
I do all the house chores myself
except fetching water and washing
clothes. I still go to the market to
buy whatever I need and prepare my
meals the way I prefer them.
How do you relax?
I sing, read my Bible and sleep
sometimes because I don’t know
how to watch television. I purchased
a television set so that people would
not say I can’t afford to buy one and
also for the sake of my grandchildren

Why Does the First Lady of Ekiti State, Mrs. Feyisetan Fayose Look Like A Man?

This woman married a tout several years ago, that tells us that she has been receiving punches and slaps from her he-goat of a hubby for so many years and you expect her not to look like a man! This gracious woman has been accustomed to a violent husband, that face you see is the face of resilience and endurance
Do you know how many times Fayose have sent her packing! I read in the social media that the woman resides in the family's home in Ibadan from where she goes to Ekiti when occasion demands just because she admonished her hubby to tread softly with Buhari and APC
You know the number of fasting and prayers this woman goes through to help her hubby! How then will she not look like a man!

jayonpoint:
Why a con3 president can't talk with authority, sagacity, confidence n vigor? Hw did we boxed ourselves in this corner with this man called Jonathan?

The opposition especially APC must be respobsible

dokyOloye:
Buhari's support base in d north is restricted to d illiterate almajiris and they love him cos he is a violent jihadist. QED

This so called illiterate almajiris gave him 12 million votes in 2011, these almajiris will be used to send GEJ packing from Aso Rock come May 29, 2015

Buhari will win except GEJ divorce Shepopo
