Dude, if war is what you want. War you will get. Nobody is born to rule this country, you people produce nothing, yet you wish to threaten those that feed you

There is a magic bullet and its called true federalism. It is wise for every Nigerian to learn what it means.

OK oh! I hear you.

Nigerians are not ready to stand up for change yet, we are complacent, to get to where they are other countries made sacrifices. without that the Governors that are kings already will  be more powerful emperors, and with the complacent citizens we have in naija, things will get worse.

We must start by making sure our votes count and bringing, people with integrity into government who will in turn  debate the future of this country and lay a foundation for the restructuring of the nation whether as a federation, separate countries or status quo, the current politicians cannot do us any Good. mark my words.

My dear, nobody is smiling. If anyone practices violence, they will reap its fruits tenfold.
Lets see who will blink. If anybody sacrifices the blood of the innocent for political gain, they will get war and be cut off.
We will secure our own lands, better secure yours.

the problem will not likely be solved with division if we have selfish leaders. Look at some states with relatively fantastic allocations but terrible mismanagement, look at others will less and seroius development going on. While separation may sound appealing, its not the magic wand to solve our problems. Its an attractive option I am gravitating towards but I know unless fundamental changes are effected our resultant countries or regions can be as small as Liberia and yet be killing ourselves or be as big and complex as South africa and yet be stable and prosperous. THERE IS NO MAGIC BULLET
If the English word division is your problem, then call it separation or divorce. The state governments are not independent of Abuja as they were created by Abuja and are there to do the bidding of Abuja. That is why you will see a state governor representing the president at wedding or funeral, when based on true federalism; they will share almost equal powers.
Will share a flat with someone for forty year but you are constantly watching each other’s back? Will you be in a marriage; were your wife can kill you anytime you sleep with both eyes closed? A nation like Nigeria is no different from those scenarios. Before the creation of Nigeria where do you think everybody- my ancestors and yours was? They were doing there on things based on their ways of lives and ways of doing things.
You don't tell a person in very abusive and unhappy marraige not to go for divorce based on whether a future marriage will not be the same. If life is based on such assumption, our parents would not had send us to school because how sure are they that we will be successful?
Re: Bomb Blast In Abuja by BigB11(m): 2:20am On Jan 01, 2011
In fact, for the love of God Mr. president should PLEASE step down immediately.

This position is not for a student that continues to fail. We need a true leader that isn't scared to make decisions that belong to him.

AN OPEN LETA TO JEG

Jeg, is it by fire by thunder u rule? it would have been an honourable tin 4u to allow PDP's agreement bind on u. U dont bite fingers dat fed u! if u step aside and allow woeva run 4wateva party, then let the masses decide by casting their votes 4d persons after their hearts and allow their votes count, honestly, JEG, u would be MOST RESPECTED.
it is glaring that sum people are making d country ungovernable for u. they are showing good people of 9jer and now SOLDIERS (though in a hard way) that u r  incapable of ruling this great nation. u have changed IGP,CSO,DEFENCE WTV how many times? despite ur Presidential Advisory Committee, wat result do we have?
RULING 9JER IS NOT A MUST O.

Atiku Abuakar in a statement denounced the bombings in strong terms describing it as ”senseless and wicked.”
In the statement  Mr Abubakar said he sympathises with innocent military and civilian victims caught in the bombing incident.
The former VP went on to say that the latest bomb targeted at a military establishment is an indication that ”President Jonathan cannot provide the type of leadership to secure the nation.’

The president, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, has also condemned the attack, and commands the nation’s security services to rise to the occasion and arrest this new and dangerous challenge to our peace and stability.
He said in a statement that there shall be no sacred cows. All, no matter how remotely connected to these incidents, must be brought to justice.
They must be made to pay.   No one, and we repeat, no one, can make this nation ungovernable.’ he said in a statement signed by Ima Niboro.

At the height of the Naija Delta crisis did the Late Umaru resign.

Eziachi:

If you read what I said carefully I was also emphasising the importance of a free and fair election, but a productive democracy is not all about just elections and its harvest. Some are now even calling ACN and Buhari but they forgot that those people will rule with the same Nigeria of 36 unsustainable state governments and God know how many local governments.  All these were created to create political positions and get one over one ethnic nation and take lion share of oil money called revenue allocation and they are still planning to create even more states.

I doesn’t matter whose party or person you bring it, they will still rule with a constitution, no one understands, or no one knew the real author but was designed for the benefit of those the authored it. Nigeria is place where a navy can base in the desert without a blink of an eye because the person that sited it comes from the desert but forgot that ship sail in the waters and that is not about to change tomorrow, rather it is getting worse.


The constitution is not the primary problem (at least not yet). Let whatever we call a constitution (1999 or that being ratified without the president's consent) be enforced first. At least the Nigerian Constitution in any form takes rigging or election violence as crimes. Enforce this.

Free and fair elections is an assurance for credible leadership compared to what we have today. That you cannot dispute.

Secondly, look at the regional political parties like APGA, PPRA or ANPP. Even within them they are largely undemocratic.
Or are you saying all the derivation benefit going to the oil producing states has changed their lives? Aren't the South-South people running their own governments? Still nothing to show for it.
So if you separate Nigeria,  what you see in these regioanal parties is what you will obtain in the various regions (or nations as some people call them).

Corruption and nepotism just like in Nigeria today.


We really need to 1. enforce our constitution, run free and fair elections and thus credibility increased in governance will 2. drive down corruption coupled with prosecution of law-breakers

I'm more inclined to believe that the boming was a response to your uncle's actions against his brother General Togo. I remember Togo promised to respond in kind, it appears as if he responded sooner rather than later.
Re: Bomb Blast In Abuja by LRNZH(m): 2:35am On Jan 01, 2011
Rivers State is a classic example where the real winner of the gubernatorial election (Rotimi Amaechi, at least within PDP) was first displaced but democracy won in the end.

If news coming out of that state is anything to go by Rotimi is doing a relatively awesome job.

Not to talk of the Fasholas who were genuinely elected.


Give us credible elections, we will elect our types of leaders who we think (or know) are mildly or not corrupt.
A new Nigeria will be borne.

Nobody is preaching violence, noone has the time.
Nigeria happens to be in a very fragile state, and with a weak leader violence is inevitable.
Let's face the fact, Jonathan has never managed anything through out his career, every position he finds himself is given to him by luck.

Unfortunately, What we are experiencing in Nigeria today requires a qualified and well experienced leadership.
It is obvious that Jonathan isn't this leader, he knows this fact more than anyone else.

For the love of God, Mr. president should just be kind enough and step aside.
It will only be great for our country if we all come together as one and ask this great Nigerian to step down before it's too late.

Jonathan is a good man, a great Nigerian, but not the right man for the job.

We need a leader that can not be intimidated by anyone on this planet, a leader that can make his own decision, a leader that completely understands the importance of unity, a leader that has records of great accomplishments, a leader that is tough like a dragon, a leader that can clearly express himself and more than anything else, a leader that has a complete respect of all Nigerians.
Jonathan is not this leader; For the love of God, Mr president should step down immediately!

Step down for what/who Sambo; Mark; Dimiji.  Please think things through first

That is the issue. These guys weren't elected.

Mark I can tell you was never elected! PDP did not even win in his senatorial zone.

What we need is another "Abdulsallam" moment.
Just like Abdusallam handed over power to civilians and stepped down,

Jonathan should conduct free and fair elections in '11 and step down.

PDP will be widely defeated, corrupt politicians will be heavily booted out.

Progress!

If at this stage Nigerians still do not know the real issues holding them back, there is a big problem.

It is simple!

Your process of choosing leaders is not working. The wrong people are in government wether in the regions or at the FG.
Change that first. Then fight corruption with the new credible leaders.

Stop wasting your time. What is going on in Nigeria today is bigger than Jonathan, or south or north. Nigeria is in a bad shape and as great citizens of Nigeria, we should all be looking to embrace anything that will dig us out of this hell hole, and absolutely not praising a confirmed failure.

Clearly Jonathan isn't the man: it will only make our country a better place if we all face the fact and allow true leaders to take us back to the top, where we want to be.

Crying behind Jonathan only makes one looks f00lish.
FYI: America hates bombing more than anything, with time Jonathan will completely lose the support of USA.
