how many indigenous languages can Pat Utomi speak? |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by raldsfield(m): 10:15pm On Jul 24, 2006 |
What has language got to do with performance. Most Nigerians understand English. Speaking all the languages in Nigeria doesn't mean you can perform. All this tribal men self. I done Tire. |

I'd definitely vote for Pat Utomi. I do not expect him to become Nigeria's next president though. Even if becomes the next president, i do not see him making any major improvement to the current state of our beloved country. I have seen his show a couple of times, I hope he has better ideas than those over simplistic policies discussed on his show. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by otokx(m): 11:58pm On Jul 25, 2006 |
pat utomi may be popular among the educated but he must know that the educated/enlightened are not more than 20% of the electorate; in other words all this plenty grammer wont carry him very far. |

we should project Pat Utomi for president for better tomorrow |

I believe this is the time for all Nigerians to come out and elect the right and credible man to lead us. Prof. PAT UTOMI is the man! |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by LoverBwoy(m): 1:16am On Aug 25, 2006 |
DIRECTOR of Lagos Business School, Prof. Pat Utomi, is to contest the 2007 Presidential election under the platform of African Democratic Congress (ADC), the party has said. http://allafrica.com/stories/200608220514.html |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by Omolulu(m): 4:15pm On Aug 25, 2006 |
Pat Utomi is a good man.He can however become a credible force in the Nigerian political terrain if he gets some experience at the state level as a governor and understands the workings of the office of the chief administrator(Governor or President)of any polity.A teacher must have been a student and a leader once a follower. When he gets that experience,he'll be the best man to lead Nigeria forward ![]() |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by otokx(m): 9:20am On Aug 26, 2006 |
I can't agree more with you omolulu. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by ababoy1(m): 9:13pm On Oct 14, 2006 |
I find the line of reasoning about Utomi being an intellectual and therefore not fitting to rule Nigeria self-defeating and not properly considered. I am sometimes mystified about what some Nigerians really want. Do we still want to be ruled by dim-witted individuals? If Utomi’s only blemish is the fact that he is an intellectual, maybe I might consider voting for him. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by tyrex(m): 7:15pm On Nov 11, 2006 |
Hi everyone after thoroughly surveying the list of candidates, I think Prof. Pat Utomi is the most qualified. Anyone with me on this? |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by streetcyph: 9:32pm On Nov 11, 2006 |
utomi na my padi, but realistically, his best chance is minister of finance for now, president is a long shot, for someone with no political background, |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by lewa(m): 2:31am On Nov 12, 2006 |
You are now talking |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by Odeku(m): 2:38am On Nov 12, 2006 |
I think he is a good candidate but i am waiting for his speech |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by otokx(m): 2:09pm On Nov 12, 2006 |
@streetcyph; even minister of finance is too much for this guy, let him start from minister of education. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by tyrex(m): 4:24pm On Nov 12, 2006 |
For someone like Prof Pat. I don't think Presidency is a far cry. Lets give him a chance he may not be experienced as the rest but thats a good change. These experienced people have played with our heads long enough. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by streetcyph: 4:43pm On Nov 12, 2006 |
presidency is not a far cry, i do not doubt he will do a good job. unfortunately, playing politics is the other half of the job i am not sure he is capable of doing. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by Jaybaba(m): 8:26pm On Nov 12, 2006 |
Pat Utomi will certainly make an impact if we give him chance. I look forward to seeing people like him become president. I do not agree with people asking him to go and get experience. Lincoln had no experience "he failed at every election until the presidency." He is still ranked as one of Americas greatests and considered a founding father though he was not even born at the declaration of independence. The Utomis of this world, Okotie, Oshiomoles are the ones we should look up to. I advice them on getting into the job, not to consult any of the old school brigade. Carry go Utomi, I am majority and I am on your side. |

We've all done enough talking. It's about time we done the walking. Agreed, Pat may or maynot be the man. What will it cost you if u cast your vote for him? 4 years, only! Of which I am certain he'll deliver more than we have had in a very longtime. For years, we have been under military rule; then it got converted to these 8 years of Military-Democracy. What has the gunvors, legislators, senators delivered these 8 ODD years? NOTHING! Yet most of us are still willing to cast our votes to another set of PROMISFOS (translate to: Promise & Fail) politicians. The ONLY solution is to give Prof PAT UTOMI yur vote. May the candidate who has sincerity of purpose WIN! [size=5pt]edt[/size] |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by otokx(m): 2:47pm On Jan 27, 2007 |
Well i think we should cast in our sympathy votes on the side of Pat Utomi who is rated above Chris Okotie. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by IKUGWU: 6:03pm On Feb 06, 2007 |
I hear some people shout inexperience and I ask; is it experience in stealing? I hear some people say impossible and I ask; are you not defeated? I hear some people say intellectuals are leadership failures and I ask shall we be better with these dumb fellows? I remember reading an article in one of the Nigerian dailies written by Utomi with the title "Hope in Recession". it calls to mind this pessimistic attitude where by we relegate our ability to foster change to the abyss of political disengagement with a corresponding unquenchable thirst to complain. So, why do we complain if we call experience capacity to steal and equate knowledge with bad leadership? The logical consequence is that we have chosen to maintain the status quo, chosen ignorance over knowledge and ability to steal over tested experience. come to think of it , I dare say that those whose pessimism are incurable should permanently shut themselves out of unnecessary complaints. In fact, it is Prof. Pat Utomi or 'never'. Let me hear you again on this and I will be too glad to keep on with this already established town crier. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by ubamu2029: 6:57pm On Feb 06, 2007 |
A lot of people (mostly pyrates) have registered here to shout "vote for pat". Pat Utomi could have stood a chance if he did not unwittingly aligned himself with the pyrates (whom i authoritatively learnt wole soyinka had asked to do everything possible to ensure he emerges). If only their website was not secured, I would have asked you to sign into http://www.nas-int.org/ and check out in their discussion forum. All what they are saying is how to carry out a revolution in nigeria. Pat Utomi. Soyinka is now the bot of the party and it is assumed that if Pat Utomi wins, all nigerians would be converted to the pyrate confrantanity. Make una beware of the secret plans. NB: I come as a prophet. Notice how same people are registering with different names just to drive their "vote for pat" request. |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by Tonyblu(m): 9:37pm On Feb 06, 2007 |
ubamu2029: @Ubamu: Dude, u made ur point there; and I vehemently disagree with you. Do you know the intensity of cultism the current leaders are immersed into? Have u bothered to look that up as well? Dude, rest your case, your point is direction-less. IKUGWU: . . . In fact, it is Prof. Pat Utomi or 'never'. Well said IKUGWU. I make bold to repeat: . . . In fact, it is Prof. Pat Utomi or 'never'. |

Compatriots Positive Action is the greatest prayer God will not come down from heaven to do the miracle by himself People must make themselves available for God to use Patito has done that- even at great risk to himself. He needs support. There is no doubt that he has integrity. That is what matters most - even more than his educational and professional business credentials. Nigerians need a Charismatic leader, a role model, do as I do - not do as I say! Patito can build a team, lead them, motivate them,IT's Proven! The youth need a role model - Nigeria's problem is one of - Who will convince the masses that the Status Quo has changed? Its no longer business as usual. No more rent-seeking behaviour. No more 'contracts'. No more overnight millionaires! Behaviour change is needed across teh whole spectrum of the citizenry. when that happens we shall be on our way to National Glory! This is the time for all Nigerians who want a beter future to ACT! Vo[b]te!!! Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!!Vote!!![/b] The stars are favouring a miracle in Nigeria this year. Atiku has been disqualified. Yar adua is an unknown. IBB has chickened out (as usual under false pretences) Marwa has disappeared This is why I believe this is a very good chance for change EFCC will not allow many CORRUPT people to contest. If the youth and Nigerians can be made to see the oppourtunity here and come out in masses to vote, then God will perform the miracle sooner than we think. Otherwise, we will all be praying endlessly. Even a priest went to the extent of Threathening his congregation with ex-communication if they dont register to vote. I believe he has seen the handwriting on the wall. Pls tell everyone you know to come out and vote this time. Lets be God's hands this time and then we will see what happens. Cheers and Peace! |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by IKUGWU: 3:04pm On Feb 09, 2007 |
Great job WhoamI. I am a Nigerian who believes Pat represents the role model we are searching for. Or do we need three wise men to sort him out for us? The strenght of his character is what is selling the brand name and you will be surprised that the only products that compete with Utomi in the Nigerian mind are coca cola and pure water. Yes! He is that popular: Isha Allah, WhoamI is a prophet and his prophesy shall come to pass. !!!VOTE!!!VOTE!!!VOTE PAT FOR PRESIDENT, AND SOONER THAN LATTER, I WILL JOIN THE LEAGUE OF NIGERIAN AUTHORS THAT WILL TELL THE STORY OF THESE EVIL DAYS. My story will read, ONCE UPON A TIME, AND THEN PAT UTOMI CAME, EL DORADO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Your're tempted not be rude? ![]() Your passion and the energy you exude when Pat Utomi is mentioned in quizzical. Yes, you registered here to campaign for Utomi. How much were you paid. How come you have never posted or responded to another topic except the Utomi thread? Get a life, mate. Face reality. Utomi can only win in village. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by WhoAmI4(m): 4:15pm On Feb 09, 2007 |
When your Child is seriously ill, you will look for a doctor who understands the illness. Patito has shown that he has done his home work. Just listen to his analysis of the revenue derivation problem/ issue. A non-issue he calls it! He makes it look so EASY! Read Here: http://elendureports.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=215&Itemid=29 If Obj were not bound by secret deals with the "powers that be", and if he were only a bit more foresighted, He would trying to ensure that Pat Utomi OR Donald Duke or even Okonjo-Iweala; or a combination of all these are given the green light to MEND Nigeria before it breaks up completely. We all agree that Nigeria is sick. Terminally ill even. If we dont get a knowledgeable doctor now.It may be too late later! Leadership is all about vision, motivation, exemplary attitudes. Government on the other hand will be spear-headed by the Bureacrats, the civil servants, the nigerian people - my brothers and your sisters; me and you;everyone of us. [list] [li]Rule of Law and order (See his speech on reforming the Police and law enforcement: http://www.patutomi2007.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=35) Civil obedience and responsibility Commitment to the Nigerian project Most importantly a renewed vigilance - to avoid the derailing of the RESTORATION! Recall Khaki boys in 80s and 90s. We must shine our eyes![/li] [li][/li] [/list]Everybody! This is our chance Lets Take it! If Utomi cannot speak all the languages in Nigeria like someone said earlier, it is our responsibility to translate his message of hope: Let the Rainbow Take Shape; Imagine the Possibilities! Brothers let us say the truth for once: Let us take action nOW! |
Re: Pat Utomi For President In 2007? by WhoAmI4(m): 4:26pm On Feb 09, 2007 |
Just commenting on Ubamu and Ikugwu thread of exchanges Ubamu seems to be perplexed by the passion that Ikugwu exhibits re: Patito for President I must confess that it is hard to understand really! You just have to do some home work - learn more about the man Patrick Utomi! If you did - I bet you will be more fanatical than Ikugwu. You woudl probably shout from the mountain tops, from every corner of the globe, you might even contribute your widow's mite to support the effort - just like the market woman in Lagos who gave 500 Naira after Pat made his presentation. Of course I am assuming that you have the best interest of Nigeria and future of her peoples at heart. We have never had this kind of campaign. We have neevr had this attitude before The man said and I try to recollect : "I did not join the old parties because I will contest and win only with teh support of teh Nigerian people. If they support me with whatever little they have, then they can hold me responsible at any point in time". For more on Patito's Ideas see http://www.patutomi2007.com/ Peace! |
