AMIABLE. (Obviously you lack education and proper home training)


...... and upload your mother's picture, so we can compare her with the woman you just insulted.

For the home training part, i do not know. but for the education part, if you intend to base ur judgement on [b][color=#000099]AMIABLE/AMICABLE, the dude is right. Amicable is as good as amiable.

holyokoto:
I noticed she is addressed as "Ms. Sonaiya". You mean she is not married or what? unmarried Woman is not a good example of a Democratic leader

She has a marriage of around 30 years you will be proud of. Her husband, Funso Sonaiya, is also a professor of international standing. They both make being a professor something easy and natural. No airs around them whatsoever. How I always 'wish' anytime i heard them being mentioned as 'Professor and Professor (Mrs) Sonaiya'. They make me like professorship i no go lie.
That aside, Professor Remi Sonaiya is a leader par excellence. Down to earth, hardworking and brilliant. I have the honor of being under her tutelage for over two years. She is a good Christian and well-grounded in the Word. When issues become knotty, she has an uncommon way of removing the knots. Ever so approachable, she would wait to convey all of us (students) to our different hostels after every meeting and Sunday services. I might as well be talking of the husband too because 'like husband like wife'. Another plus for the husband too, he has a way of disarming you with his good humours.
Sonaiya is the kind of a leader Nigeria needs at this time. Unfortunately, Nigerians are not ready for her kind. Whichever way, change is ineluctable. Jona, Otuoke here you come. God bless Professor (Mrs) Remi Sonaiya, God bless Prof and Prof (Mrs) Sonaiya.

OREMUSSANCTUS:
Where is d dead man talking from ?

Sincerely, i wish Buhari can be kept out of the public space. This government and its cohorts are hell-bent in seeing that the man will not be alive for the election. Even that mad man in Ekiti will go to any length to put Buhari out of circulation. I implore the handlers of Buhari security to double their efforts. Nothing must happen to Buhari. He represents our collective yearnings for now. And for all the fools wishing Buhari dead, the fare is free you can all go ahead. After all, your bishop has opened the gate for you already.

Perhaps the true meaning of APC is A Personal Computer?

The speed you took to make this asinine response confirmed that u did not read the post. Reading is good for you. Now go back and read the post from the beginning before exhibiting your vacuity. By then u will know that the author is apolitical. Change is what we need, change is what we believe in. Yes, we can effect the change. To rid Nigeria of clueless and uxorious leadership is a task that must be done.

'To rid Nigeria of clueless and uxorious leadership is a task for everybody that must be done' – Sesan Akintade, 2014.

It was Chief Obafemi Awolowo that remarked, inter alia, of the corrupt and rudderless Shagari presidency that 'the load that is meant for the back of an ass cannot be borne by a sheep'. In character and charisma, I have always known that Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was and is not fit to lead my country. Of course, during the incapacitation of Yar'adua, I was one of those that clamoured that Vice President Jonathan should be allowed to exercise the full authority of the president despite some 'cabal' belief that 'they' knew what we did not. All that followed is now history. But when it was time for 2011 general elections, I actively campaigned against Jonathan. Not because of any personal beef or hatred but because his persona as a deputy governor, governor, vice-president, acting president and finally substantive president was least inspiring. Many of my friends were beguiled by his seeming humility, averring that they would be voting for GEJ and not PDP. All my monition for them not to confuse docility with humility fell on wrong ears. It is not gratifying for me to say that those friends are now more vociferous of President Jonathan misadventures in Nigeria politics than me. But my question has always been 'couldn't they see it coming'?

Before, and even after, he succeeded Alamieyesegha as governor, Jonathan has been largely reclusive. No one could say what Jonathan stood for as a governor. There was no viable project to his name. Twice his wife was invited by Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on matters that bordered on money laundry. Even as a governor, his wife was more colorful than him albeit notoriously. And when it was time to run for the vice presidency, he would not declare his assets even though his principal did just that. His body language as always been 'I don't give a damn'.

Jonathan government would go down as the most corrupt in the annals of history in Nigeria. Ironically, the bane of our progress as a nation has always been identified as corruption. But President Jonathan would have none of that. He would rather prefer corruption to stealing. That was our first ever PhD president lecturing us on the difference between corruption and stealing! Talk about making the difference between six and half-a-dozen. But can you blame him, 'by their fruit yea shall know them', so says the Book. Even Abacha was the only one that was allowed to be corrupt. His minister dared not contemplate corruption with impunity. Obasanjo, who was far from being a saint, sacrificed Tafa Balogun (the head of the most corrupt institution in Nigeria), Fabian Osuji (Education Minister), Mobolaji Osomo (Housing Minister) and many more on matters bordering on corruption. Obasanjo even sent Chief Sunday Afolabi, his senior and Internal Affairs Minister, to his early grave because of corruption. Not so with our corruption-is-not stealing President Jonathan. From, Farouk Lawal, to Stella Odua, to Diezani Alliso-Madueke, to Abba Moro and a host of others, none is yet to be indicted for corruption not to talk of being punished. It took a national outcry for Stella Odua to be relieved of her plum job. In President Jonathan six-year presidency, no one is yet to be tried for corruption despite corruption being the most malignant of all the ills that afflict us as a nation.

Like someone recently opined, a man that cannot control his wife should not be the head of a clan. Unfortunately, such a man is the one sitting to control the affairs of more than 160 million people. The wife of the President, 'Dame' Patience, has been more of a liability than an asset to her husband, and in extension, to the presidency. Never has any 'First Lady' been this brazen and crude. Just when you thought she has learnt that she issn't more than an 'appendage of power', she would still obtrude upon your consciousness and always make you wonder when she will finally be called to order. The constitution does not recognize her. The people do not want her interference in the politics. The less we see and hear from her the better for the image of the country. Whatever influence she has on her husband is impacting negatively on the presidency and the nation. As 'Mama Peace', she should be told that peace is antithesis to quarrel and bickering. The earlier she vacates the political scene the better. Her dabbling into the issues concerning the states is becoming unbecoming of the wife of a president.

I have no doubt that corruption is our worst nemesis. No matter how anybody tries to rationalize it, corruption is as bad as stealing. Its insidiousness even makes it worse than stealing. And one leader whose reputation remained unassailable even by his enemies is General Mohammodu Buhari. If indeed it is true that GMB has no house in Abuja and Lagos, if indeed he has no house beside the two in Kaduna and his hometown Daura, if indeed he has no foreign account despite being a former governor, a former Minister of Petroleum, a former Chief of Army Staff and a former Head of State, then his detractors should stuff it. If he did not steal from us in the past, he will not steal from us now. If he refused to plunged us into debt in the past, then he will not do same now. If he instituted 'War Against Indiscipline' in the past, he will re-enact the same against corruption now.

And for those that will not relent in casting GMB in the toga of a religion fanatic, I have a word for you. If he Buhari could not 'islamize' Nigeria when he was a military Head of State, then he can least achieve that under democracy. As a matter of fact, if Murtala Muhammed, Ibrahim Babangida and Sanni Abacha, all muslims and military Heads of State, could not turn Nigeria to an islamic country, I dare say that no one can achieve that under a democratic dispensation. By the grace of God I am a christian but I have no doubt in my mind that I would have been a muslim had it been I was born in the caliphate. So I will not condemn any man on the basis of his religion or his love for his religion. At any rate GMB has assured us time and again of his unbiasedness towards every religion. I will rather choose an incorrigible Nigerian as a leader before and above an hypocritical pastor who cannot even rule his own house.

I campaigned and voted for General Muhammed Buhari in 2011 even though I knew he had a slim chance of winning especially when the merger talk between CPC and ACN collapsed. I hope my friends that 'voted for GEJ and not PDP' that time will reconsider their stands now. Nigerians have another chance to get it right this time. To expect that GEJ presidency will change for the better is expecting the impossible. It is not the fault of the man, after all he his not a 'lion'. He is who he is. Unfortunately, who is he is not the way forward for Nigeria.
On this note I call on all Nigerians especially the youth to effect the change that is most needed to move our country forward. A vote for General Muhammed Buhari will guarantee that change. I call on Nigerians in diaspora to contribute their quotas in form of raising funds and sensitization of their people back at home. Whether you are at home or abroad, Nigeria belongs to us all.

To this end I call on GMB Campaign Organization to open and make public account that we can all contribute to towards the campaign for the presidential election. Yes, you and I and our friends can fund this campaign. President Obama did it. Yes we can do it. I have prepared my own mite to contribute towards the success of this endeavor. This is a change we so much believe in. This is a change that can help us part with the status quo. The is a chance we can not afford to miss again. The task to rid Nigeria of clueless and uxorious leadership is a task for everybody that must be done. The time to be involve in that task, fortunately, is now.

Sesan Akintade.

exxell: @Nicholas, I dont really know what your motive is but all I can tell you is kudos and more greas to your elbow. I loved the part where you said if it was the Pope you will still come out with the story.... I used to love TB Joshua even though am a Catholic. Even when I listened to the Audio and I knew it was a bribe (though not implicitly stated in the audio); I still decided to "deceive" myself and convince myself that its not a bribe but one of his generous gimmicks.... But what really troubled me in the audio was the way people were laughing in the audio... The MOG included. I was so suprised. Were peoples lives that trivial that he had to be laughing at that moment in time? I leave judgement to the boss in the sky!

Ordinarily being thousands of miles away from Nigeria (and in a land where commonsense is taken for granted) would have given me a consolation for escaping the abnormalities that have been a matter-of-course in my fatherland. Alsa, i still find myself peeping in on the country once in a while to see if any good news may come from that country. Nigeria has lost it from time immemorial. The possibility of the present generation finding 'it' deems by the day. Just imagine how some of the posters above stand logic on its head. How unfortunate. In the recording that i listened to, people were even laughing as if it was a kind of a merry gathering, as if it was not a matter that caused the untimely, unnecessary and avoidable death of over 80 people!! Habba!! 80 people and not 80 chicken!! But then, the most heinous crime will still find justification with some zombie-like remote-operated 'mumus' that unfortunately constitute the larger percentage of the Nigeria internet users.
I congratulate you Mr Nicholas Ibekwe. Truth be told, i don't have the bravery to do what you just did while I am still in that country. As you might have well known, you are on a collision course with the powers and principalities. My prayers will be on you and your family. May God spare your life and guide your family through this trying period. Maybe because of people like you, the gods may one day reverse their curses on that 'goddamned' country. As for Jonathan and Fashola, they are part of the establishment; nothing good can ever come out of them.
As for the 'gods of men', you may continue to fool your hypnotized zombie followers. But let it be known to you, that the Ibekwes of this world will never be fooled by your fakery. And one by one, your day of reckoning will be a fait accompli.
