OBJ is from SS/SE that's why he gave Bakassi to Cameroon?
Obasanjo did not give Bakassi away to Cameroon, because Bakassi was Cameroons. Nigeria was administering it illegally. Anyway, if you feel Bakassi belongs to Nigeria, you can as well send your Nigerian army to Bakassi to grab it back. Abi if person dash your thing out without your consent, you suppose fit claim am back now. Hold Obasanjo by sokoto and drag him to Paul Biya and force them to revoke the agreements they both signed. Afterall, the Commander in T(c)hief of the Nigerian armed forces is a south south man.

The only thing that qualifies Tambuwal for this office, is that he has proven for the past three (3) years that he can be a lackey, a stooge and a chihuahua to Ahmed Tinubu.

Does Tambuwal furnish a better credentials than Mallam El' rufai or Nuhu Ribadu, both of whose antecedents are known and celebrated in the FCT and EFCC?. These two men are young, tested and trusted and unlike Tambuwal, many Nigerians will vouch for their integrity and focus.

Tinubu has seen another Fashola in Tambuwal. A man that will handover the resources of the country to him to play with.


I expect Gen Buhari and his band to walk out of this arrangement when the time comes, but then, it might be too late. Nigerians would think his greed for power had reared it's ugly head and hang him dry.

P.S : with the enormous powers at the disposal of the President, no godfather can control a Nigerian president. The leash gets broken at the eagle square after the oath of office.

But Nigeria now feels like disintegrating now cos a S.southerner is in power right

But seriously ACN which is the main partner in the merger have always outsourced their presidential ticket.

In 2007 they fielded Atiku a former PDP VP. In 2011 they fielded Ribadu a PDP foot soldier under OBJ.

I am not surprised they've been shopping all the while. Wooing every tom, dikk and harry.

When Tambuwal made his comment about GEJ, then followed Sanusi's "leaked" letter and then OBJ's, only a naive and blind APC supporter would not know the grand plot.

biomedixexcel: All these Jonathan fanboys are laughing in public while weeping inside! Jonathan is already a looser, can't control his house (PDP)
You know why some of us are Mr. President's "fanboys"? Because for the very first time in this GREAT NATION we have a president who is doing what others deliberately refused to do....build the foundation of national development and succeeding despite deliberate circumvention. The ones crying corruption today are the ones not able to steal anymore. Haha....we are laughing because by God's grace we are out of all demonic oppression & Nigeria is on the path to greatness again & no plans to take us back will succeed.

Sincere9gerian is a prophet. I said this long time ago. There is no future for Fashola in APC post-2015.

See what the report says about Fashola
Platform9ja: Also not working in Fashola’s favour was the alleged frosty relationship between him and his predecessor and national leader of the APC, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who was said not be comfortable with a Fashola vice presidency.

odua boy: You must be joking...So a yoruba christain like me will leave a tested and trusted yoruba man in the person of Fashola and vote for one dullard from otueke all because we share the same religious affiliations.
In yorubalnd ethnicity comes before religion...That is why you see different people in a family practising christainity,islam and traditional religion in love and harmony.

Try another trick,,This one is dead on arrival.

I'm not a tribalist, but it seems so. The only time a SEastherner became president,his biased policie made the country on a brink of collapse. Now the SS has it and we are experiencing the same thing.
The SS nd SE aren't good administrators- FACT.

You, sir, are a slowpoke. The SS aren't good administrators? Yet the SS president has outperformed the tenure of both SW (OBJ) and NW presidencies COMBINED. And you have the audacity to type that cccraap of yours here. nonsense.

This is what I've been saying for a long time.
I am from SS and once was an APC apologist but when I realized they ganged up just because of where GEJ is from, I withdrew my support for APC.
It has never been an issue of performance because they started the campaign before GEJ would be 100days in office. They started calling him a failure few months into office.
bruv, u made a mistake believing APC in the first place, but I am happy you now know better.
They have never had anything good to offer.

Have said it countless times that PDP even in a most terrible state is better than all propaganda cowards called apc

I weep for the Ibos.They know how to brag without positioning themselves at the right place at right time politically.After all said and down,after the whole sacrifices you see how the Northern Oligacy have schemed their way back to recknoning choosing the west as a launching pad.All the ibo leaders know is their selfish pocket.They can't read the times and understand a simple political calculation.2019 is still far they cannot align themselves with the band wagon and get a fair share of the spoils.I don't know how these people who claim to have missed their way to Jerusalem and ended up in Nigeria,Boast to be wiser but fools in dealings at least politically.Where are they those polical juggernauts who are famed tro be saviour of the masses,come and test your popularity at APC.Jonathan is doomed and he has failed and 2015 will tell the rest of the story.IGbos wake up.Its time to shout Igbo kwenu!

When people like you talk I just remember the saying that ' some people make much sense when they are silent '.
I can't believe that Nigeria in this modern age still has people that are as myopic and senseless in their reasonings as you are. People who are so daft and ignorant. You claim not to be a tribalist yet you are always all over nairaland causing havoc with your senseless tribalistic slanders, now please can you tell us when a south easterner has ever become the Nigerian president. If you can't support your claim then I suggest you instantly smash the borrowed china phone which you used in typing this thrash into your brainless skull and do humanity a favour.
hey young man I think you getting it all twisted! Come on! This sh!it is based on voting!! You and I get to vote,the nigga with the highest vote see the light of the day,why it looks like igbos and SS are not there is all because their vote will endup being minority against the Hausa/igbo! An example is the anambra election! The anambarian all vote because obiano is from an igbo party! If they apply that in a national election everytime how do they want to produce a president when they only constitute 18% of nigeria!......the same goes to SS,if they only vote for SS they won't see the light! The only way GEJ got there was only becausing the president was dead,and he filled his position,if we going by geopolitical vote no igbo or SS man will ever be there because there vote will be minute compare to a hausa vote or yoruba vote!......atlist if you people have a problem,why don't you form your own party have candidates from your region,then make campaign all over the country,and let all other geopolitical zone do that,you will see the geopolitical zone with highest population will continue ruling the nation........we all called for democratic! And democratic is here bare the pains whoever is not favored!

My brother in anyway you look at it GEJ is favoured to win,.....the minority tribes in nigeria put together are much more than 2 of the 3 majority tribes(yoruba and hausa)and they will vote GEJ because they see him as a picture of what they will face too when they are finally in power,....The west are not so much for GEJ but remember half of the west are christians and they are against boko haram and they will see any muslim candidate as the instigator of Boko haram because GEJ is a christian same also goes for the northern christans which are a handfull,....Performance too will also lift GEJ higher because his 2 and half yrs has beaten OBJ's 8yrs,....Like me or hate me you cant seperate sentiments from politics

In United states, we saw a case where sentimental voting brought Obama in. Americans were tired of terrorism which was quite synonymous with the Republicans so they had to vote a democrat in irrespective of his background.

Same case occurred in Nigeria where we voted Jonathan in based on sentiments as regards not wanting any former military personnel in power irrespective of whether Jonathan has a good record or not or whether he was a PDP nominee..

I see another sentimental voting coming up in 2015 where Nigerians will vote in ACP en-mass, not because we are sure they will perform but because we are tired of the madness of PDP.

Mr Aboki:


Dude

A northerner should never have seen that seat for atleast another 22 years if we are going by proper rotation method.. Thats why we are suffering this nonsense of born-to-rule..

Even if all the Tribes and tongues get quadruple tenures, they still wouldnt be able to balance out the Northern monopoly on Power.. angry

If the North and the West cant sit by and watch other people rule over them, they should opt out of the Nation.. angry

We all have sat through several horrible Northern and Western administration and swallowed it.. Now a Southerner is there, they cant anymore. Na lie. If you want to balance things out, the North and the west would have to wait their turn.

Next after the south-south should be the Igbos.. Over 53 years as a Nation and the only Igbo ruler we had lasted 194 days in office.. angry HABA NA!!




The middle belt has ruled more than anyother region in the country...So where do you get your hausa/fulani/core north ruling more than everyother ethnic group bullshit from.

Military rule is different from a democratic system...Since the inception of democrazy the southerners have ruled more than the northerners.

A.jeez:
Dats so untrue..it'll be a vry bad thing on the image f APC. They not gonna risk it..an import from PDP won't sell and tambuwal don't have the credentials, experience, the charisma, the prowess to steer nigeria back on track. We myt end up seeing anoda of the current dilema with GEJ being controlled by unnecessary dumb advisers and special assistance, then the issue of God fatherism would spring cos at a later point, he'll want to be a man on his own, and that would anger the godfathers and we might see another session of letter writing. I'll say it now and always, BUHARI remains the BEST person to lead this country at this time. He is the godfather, he has the miltary experience to handle the security challenges. He has been there b4, thus he won't need all those unnecessary advisers and assistance, therby cutting down the cost of governance. He won't have the excuse of being a newbie and askn for more time like GEJ in the early days. He has a great credentials against corruption which is the brunt of the nigerian economy. So I say, its BUHARI

I strongly believe in your opinion. At this point in time buhari would have be the best but many people will disagree. If tanbu should be president in this country he will only be a call boy

Reading all the comments from page one makes me laugh loud,come to think of it even if fashola is presented for APC presidential candidate,you people from SS/SE will not vote for him so why are u dissipating your energy over who APC present as their presidential candidates?let all the SS,SE and some part of MB cast their votes for GEJ and let see the outcome of the result.As far as north is involve they will make sure GEJ did not get 25% votes he got from last presidential election and don't be surprise all the northerners and SW are ready to vote for APC this time around.
Re: APC Drops Buhari & Picks Tambuwal As Presidential Candidate? by esoteric1: 5:36pm On Dec 31, 2013
SOUTH EAST SOUTH SOUTH BEWARE! If the report is true, its likely that APC has resolved not to waste their time on GEJ's stronghold- south east and south south- perhaps based on the calculation that their support base- the core north and southwest- can still win in a presidential election without meaningful support from the SS and SE zones due to their dominant voting strenght occasioned by the country's highly defective political structure. In view of the anticipated numerical strenght of APC's core north and south west in the national assembly, a senate president from the SE and speaker from the SS will be a mere figure heads in the national assembly.
Re: APC Drops Buhari & Picks Tambuwal As Presidential Candidate? by naijalien: 5:36pm On Dec 31, 2013

sammhi: If this report is true, then all the news about GEJ not performing has been all a grand strategy to destabilise him so that the North can have its power back. Tambuwal that his House of reps stinks of corruption will now be installed by OBJ, TINUBU, IBB etc. so that they can continue to fleece Nigeria and Nigerians...lets see sha.
When shall all these merry go round stop? Same group of politicians ruling and yet no progress. What is the difference between Tambuwal and OBJ ,GEJ? same people, same party .just label change....
did Tambuwal change of party makes him a different man? NO ! it does not ..it is still same corrupt Tambuwal out to serve the wishes of the caliphate, himself and power brokers.!
We need a radical departure from these IBB, OBJ,GEJ,TAMBUWAl set up ..same people, no difference. how can the nation progress with same set of corrupt , visionless ,greedy and self serving people .
time to reject these people

GEJ is different...believe me. Read in between the lines and carefully study events and you'll see he is subtle and different
