I always wonder when i see a comment calling Buhari a " religious fanatic" what evidence does those people have? Who is Buhari in islam? What positive contribution does he give to islam? How many mosques does he build? How many islamics schools does he build and how many Qur'an competition does he sponsors? And can any one quot his speech about Shari'a? Or post his picture in attendance of any Shari'a implementation for any state. Pls stop tribal sentiment and do politice. If Yurubas or Igbos have any person that have a lion's heart that can tackle corruption and jails any one invol north will well come him. May God deliver dis Nation with righteous president from any part of Nigeria.

Oh boy, you must go back to Primary 1 like this oh!....ki' le leyi t'on fo kaakiri bayi??

F.0.0.L! Akpan is not igbo, ur igbophobia is getting annoying!

Pls dont twist things ok.. I have said in all my posting that I dont have a problem with any igbo man... infact my wife na igbo and she as told me all about the igbo mentality, you guys dislike us becos of wat happened in the past. We all dont even know that happened. Awolowo said is story to suit the yoruba land, ojukwu the same to the igbos and Gowon too.... I love both igbos and hausa's equally. I love jonathan as a Nigerian ... But we need to put sentiment aside, if fashola indicates he wants to campaign, from the candidate I see right now, especially if pdp does not allow jonathan run... Fashola remains the best. what is igbofobia about that. I voted for Jonathan, only because he was the best among the candidate... does that make me an igbofobia as u said. So if pdp continues and abide by their crazy zoning... you will vote for an hausa flag bearer than. Atiku is already clamoring.... The president works for u, so you are telling Nigerians, to wait come 2015 and watch PDP be fighting over Zoning, bombing all over the place and put all of us to ransom.

Who cares if they are fighting on zoning. So what ever PDP wants to do, we all nigerians most follow like slaves.... free yourself man.. The colonials came to africa, divided us , and enslaved all of us.. now pdp came with the same style, divid us, and ruled us for 51 years.. The reason for the Civil war, who caused it... No be the same PDP... Gowon / obj and so own... were are all of them, PDP.... so tell me how you want to prosecute them. As for me oOo , i can't stand and watch as pdp go destroy my generation.

OMG! Is this how DUMB these guys are?

They are still mentioning Buhari while the bombings are still on?

Have they ever heard the phrase ''BLOOD IS THICKER THAN BALLOT PAPERS'' before?

This topic is about CPC/ACN merger but u wia asking "y do ugbo pple hate yoruba so much" the next line u replied Akpan a calabar as igbo. before u remove the dust in my eye, try removing the log in urs.

If igbo hates yoruba so much, we wouldn't av voted M.K.O en mass in 1993 even when d VP was a northerner, wot was in MKO/kingibe ticket for the igbos? ACN made breakthrough into the heart of igboland (anambra) when they fielded a popular candidate Dr Ngige and they won, can APGA do same in SW if we hate u? Fashola is a popular candidate, YES! but we igbos will not Vote fashola/ core Northern candidate because we have seen how they see us easterners with the events dat culminated after 2011 election. Bring Fashola/david mark, we are game

LeoMax: No one can afford to remain tribal. Tribalism has kept Nigeria on one spot for so long. So far, I havent seen any rounded and truly principled person I can vote for. I votedd for GEJ because he was not the regular politician we know, and having paved the way for other complex situations to be known, we need a radical change of course after his tenure is over. For now, I guess there is nothing Tinubu can tell me to vote for him after so much money has been stolen by him in Lagos, and who ever is forming an alliance with Tinubu is committing a political suicide. I really wanna see new crop of politicians devoid of state of origin, religion or geopolitical zone. I recommend people like Sanusi, Aligo Dangote, Ngozi Iweala, Barth Nnaji

shine ur eyes, this is politics we need intelligent people.

Those of you that are mentioning Fashola's name seem not to understand anything.
We need a government that has compassion for the poor/weak masses and would enact policies to help/empower them. We dont need a person that will commercialise everything to the advantage of money bags. Not a person that when a market is affected by fire, would pretend to rebuild the market, only to short-change the original stall-owners/allottess and sell the stalls at outrageous prices to money-bags/politicians and memebers of his cabinet.

Fashola does not have any compassion for poor people.....Lekki and LASU are classic evidence!

Add APGA to the mix to make it a truly national party. I personally dont care and would vote for any party apart from PDP, but the average easterner would not vote an ACN/CPC party.

Thats the Nigeria we live in. Rabid tribalists like @Bluetooth the yoruba tribal warlord on Nairaland abound in Iboland too.

Thats Nigeria for you...a nation of tribalists. All thinking they are better than the other tribe. Collectively mediocre.Individually bright.

^^^^^

God bless u!

Bring Fashola/david mark and we are not game. What the hell is wrong with some Igbos. What has a Fashola/David mark ticket have for you? Why must we continue to be slaves in our own country. What is wrong with an Igbo candidate?

bro i was only giving an analogy to butress my point of NO CORE NORTHERNER! for now, igbo presidency 2015 is still on course. 1 love!

who is fashewu?

Pls and pls guys lets wait a minute I mean Why is it always Buhari/someonelese? Why not Someonelse/Buhari? Well as far as i'm concern it wont work Northern Nigeria will only taste power anytime after 2030 and it will be on due consideration if it worth it.

They have pissed everyone off and they have really show their disgusting colour with what they have done and still doing in this current govt. We can no longer bear these people anylonger and i'm one of the people waiting to see the worst of the North by not getting back to Aso Rock.

Let Buhari forget it his people has really blown their chance and above all if Gej do not go beyond 2015 an Igbo man should be the next president for nothing less than 8 to 10 years so the North has to wait and keep on supporting the Boko Animals and bomb more and if they repent and stop killings that means they are all bastards. The North has lost the game. Period. No apology.

edicolove:

I will like to have a contest with you to ascertain when you were born. Lets do a reminder of what you know and remember between 1981 and 1988 and lets see how you were then. It is easy to come online and quote stuff you read from the El Rufais of this world. I was very aware when Buhari was president so I have first hand info and havent forgotten how stup!d the guy was. His English has actually improved. It was catastrophic then. Just a little better than Dame Jonathan's. He was always hiding behind Idiagbon and wanted to turn Nigeria into a sharia state. He wanted to continue Murtala Mohammed's plans. In the 20 months, he was there, he did absolutely nada! He had no road map, no plans, nada!

He did not fight any corruption. He did what a normal coup plotter would do which is arrest all those that could pose a threat to you and lock them away. But in the spirit of the 1966 coup, he kept Shagari in the hotel and kept Alex Ekuwme in prison. The then president and vice respectively. He arrested the then governor of Edo state, Prof Ambrose Alli and locked him away. Only to release him later when the guy was very sick. The guy did not eat 1 kobo of government money and remains one of the best governors Edo state has ever had till date. But he was locked away and those are the kind of stup!d stuff the likes of you come here and call fight against corruption. He was a bloody ordinary coup plotter. He truncated our democracy and sent us down this drain we have been. He is the major reason for Nigeria's problem today. If he had not terminated our democracy, we would have overcomed the problems and stabilized by now.

The coward kept hiding behind Idiagbon till Idiagbon went on a hajj to Saudi and in just a few days after Idiagbon left, IBB practically walked up to him and kicked him out in what was the easiest coup in Nigerian history. No guns were even fired. IBB had zero resistance from the army rank and file because Buhari then, just like today, was not popular. He is not a leader and have never shown any true leadership qualities. Ask army officers and see if they have much respect for the f00l.

He was petroleum minister in the OBJ 1977 to 1979 regime and he presided over oneof the biggest oil fraud then. Together with Abiola, they started major fraud in Nigeria. I laugh when I see f00ls like you come here and say he is corruption free. I ask you again, how old are you? How could Abiola have perpetrated the oil fraud without Buhari's knowledge as Petroleum minister?

The problem with many children here on NL is that they get carried away with the Aboki face and equate that to innocence. A begger died sometimes back in Surulere and was found with over 360k on him. The Aboki on my street had 800k stolen from him. That is the Aboki way. No matter what they have, they dont show it on their looks. So dont come here telling me Buhari is a poor guy. He only wants you to believe what he wants you to believe. He is very much a part of the rot Nigeria is today and it is very absurd when children like you try to portray him as a victim or an outsider! Pathetic!

U̶̲̥̅̊ αv upgraded from forming blatant lies τ̅☺ being a psycopath cos if U̶̲̥̅̊ claim τ̅☺ be aware when Buhari/Idiagbon were tђεя̩̥̊ε i dnt see Ђδω in God's green earth U̶̲̥̅̊'ll type this stupid long comment above

If you say all this about fashola, then you most be an alien from out of space... check his website and go to SIGHT & SOUND.... watch video's of some project he as done. You will see how all the children , adult, old from all tribes in lagos have embraced him.

Godman_n:

You can go and checkout the editorial in the Nations newspaper during the time I referred to. And we know that Tinubu owns and controls Nations. I know what I am saying.

The facts is straight. That my elders in the east are fools does not make any Igbo man a fool. I know they sold us out for a piece of bread. But I also know those that plotted the real game. You know you are lying when you deny that ACN elements was in support of discontinuing with Zoning. It is either you chose to be smart, or your own tribal bias did not allow you see the truth.

I belong to the post War Generation of Igbos and will stand up to my right. I will rather fight another war than to allow any body to relegate my tribe to the background. Some of us cannot all be fools.




Tell me what qualified Tinubu as leader? Why has the Yoruba race forgotten so soon his evil past? Why are Yorubas queuing behind a thief like Tinubu? Except for power grab? Tell me why you have refused to hold Fashola accountable for allowing Tinubu to control Lagos resources? Is Lagos a personal property of Tinubu? Or is Tinubu keeping it for you, incase the North or East takes control of it? Why can't you Yorubas, fight "as you know how to fight" for Lagos to be governed well? Why cover up criminal? Can you remember what Bola Ige told Tinubu when they were probing his dirty past? When their Toronto certifiticates were being probed in 1999? We know this things and it will never leave our head.

I have always supported Buhari based on pan Nigeria agenda, because he is clean. I will vote his likes (I wish Sanusi can contest for President and I will vote him than to vote Igbo Thieves including the Rochas that some people are clapping for today, because I believe in people's antecedents); than to vote a known Criminal of Igbo Origin. Any Yoruba that accepted Tinubu cannot call himself a progressive.

And Yorubas must also respect our sensibilities. For God's sake, they have taken a good 8 years. The man Obasanjo created a sick Yar'adua and a clueless GEJ. I maintain my stand that GEJ was pressured by his Ijaw clique and some scheming Yorubas to contest the last election in breach of an arrangement that saved this country from disintegrating during the June 12 crisis.

So I am Knowledgeable enough to see the hand writing on the wall.

It is unfortunate I am playing an ethnic card which I detest her. But I have to do it because my people are being schemed out by unworthy characters. I will support a decent man from another tribe that have Nigeria at heart to rule this country "forever". I don't really care about the tribe of whoever occupies Aso Rock. But when it comes to Scheming my people out, I will go to war.

For you information. I fully supported Buhari in the last election. I tried to link up Bakare with a man in Enugu that could have delivered a section of Enugu Votes to CPC during the election, But Bakare would rather not have anything to do with that. You know what he told me? That for some reasons, they will not be contacting the man.

Tell me what "some reasons" will stop a politician from wanting to win an election, than trying to scheme people out of reaching Buhari. His plan was to pocket and control Buhari. I am saying this as someone that invested my time fighting to stop GEJ. I used by personal resources to recruit agents for CPC on the election day in my Local Govt. In Enugu State. I stood up against the PDP men in Enugu.

I am for good leadership but not criminals impersonating as Progressives. Tinubu must be stopped from ruling Nigeria teh way he rules Lagos.

He is too rotten to be allowed to rule. Yorubas can make him a king but Nigerias to which I am part of will never support him.

I will work against him the way I worked against GEJ. In this one, I am sure I will have the support of my people unlike during GEJ's own.

Thank you for this post. God bless !

I regret caampaigning for GEJ but I'll rather have him in aso rock again come 2015 than see Tinubu or Buhari near the presidency. Both are bad products .
GEJ is a thief,but Tinubu is a greater tinubu !

If Buhari/Fashola run in 2015, no power in PDP can rig that election because Nigeria will burn.

Revolutnz: I think Buhari-Fashola will be the joker. I can't see Fashola running as VP to anyone less than Buhari from the north. I think in 2015, God willing, with good compromise btw ACN & CPC, this time around,Buhari will win the entire northern states while Fashola will win the entire SW states & maybe part of SS states like Edo & Delta leaving the remaining SE & SS states for GEJ. My personal DREAM.

Which delta state?
You must think delta state belongs in your odua nonsense.

lagcity: If Buhari/Fashola run in 2015, no power in PDP can rig that election because Nigeria will burn.

EPIC FAIL!!!
It will only work if the resources required to run Nigeria ,will not be sourced from the SS/SE,cos the mend guys and Massob will be waiting for you.

[b][/b] Edo state ACN uncovers pdp plans to manipulate voters registration data base and DDC machines in other to rig the july 14th gubernatorial election.The PDP chieftains held a meeting with the INEC top official to use the personels of ICT department in inec to achieve this aim.

Abeg go and siddon joorr! Oil has been extracted from SS for decades and nothing is gonna change that. What can MASSOB puccies do? Even the MEND are smart enough to know who to mess with. MEND can't try nonsense with OBJ or Buhari. It is only Yaradua and Jonathan they can try that nonsense with. You guys can only kick and scream and we'll continue to laugh at you guyz.

^^^ Honestly i think that Buahri and Tinubu should stick to the party manifesto and act as fathers/council to the younger folks.We have Fashola,El-rufai,don't know about Ribadu,Bakare,Dora Akunyili & alot more fresh and proven young fighters and visionaries.They should promote fresh people with proven records.Some people could be woe from other parties.Once they present a formidable platform.Buhari seems to be working for somebody else to replace him.I hope he does that,than run personally.I hope regardless of the permutation Fashola is part of it.

U call akunyili a young fighter? Is she younger than ur mama?

This is where the problem lies. You cant do any thing, you cant do any thing - boom! he does a "thing." The bulk of this nation's resources comes from the old Eastern Nigeria, the same region, even as divided as it was, took Nigeria to the edge for 3 years.

I'll tell you this - if you want Nigeria to survive in 2015 there are certain ingredients that shouldn't be mixed together. The ingredients are: Pair candidates from SW and core north that are certain to sweep SW,NE, and NW and have them contest againt GEJ that's sure to sweep SS, SE, and NC. Like you said in your previous post that "Nigeria will burn if GEJ rigs the election," the truth is PDP will rig the election without minding how much trouble their action will get us into and then - boom! Nigeria starts burning, NW and NE goes crazy and SW mobilizes on the streets of Lagos leading the SE, SS, and to some extent, MB to think that whats happening is a grand plan by Hausa and Yoruba to take over Nigeria. Before you say Jack, a line is drawn like it was done in 1967 and its either you're "with us or against us." Now those people you refered to in your post as "puccies" are now telling you what their real names are.

Now, the question is - do I support the scenario above? Well, my answer is - if your idea of a nation is such that you're entitled or free to extract resource from a land or region and your appreciation is to consider the inhabitants of that land "puccies," then I wont have any problem helping to draw and enforce that line.

Comments such as the one you made above is very toxic and inflammatory and its the reason Nigeria is a mess.

Correction. The Bulk of Nigeria's resources doesn't not come from Old Eastern Region. I know that you people have been thought to think oil whenever natural resources are mentioned.

Anyway, I think your calculations are innacurate, GEJ will only Sweep SE and SS. The NE, NW, and SW will go to a Buhari/Fashola team. This NC that you ppl enjoy harping about has a significant Yoruba population, so I don't know what makes you think they'll join SE and SS. Count Kwara out of this alliance with SS/SE. Kogi will be a split, Benue might be a split but ACN is strong there. Niger state isn't going with SE/SS, Kaduna and Nassarawa aren't going with SS/SE. So you see my friend, the best you can hope for is half of Kogi and Benue.
Now, this is a democracy and we don't care if you produce oil or not. MAJORITY will win election in a democracy. Now if ACN/CPC team wins and you guys say you want to cause trouble. Oh well, God help you! No need for chest-beating, we will see.

Why not do your part,by creating a FASHOLA-BUHARI govt,and see if boko-haram will not be a child play compared to what will happen then.
The failure of that goverment will be un-precedented in the history of this country.

I see you have no response and I can understand because you were probably born around 1990. Please ask your father or your uncles what the perception of Buhari was in 1985. Ask them if it was that of a hero or that of a weak dictator hiding behind his deputy.

The tiny trust the rest of the south still has for the SW will be eroded.
Yorubas will become ostracized and always viewed with suspicion.
