@ebos

even though your last post sounded poetic and i could not really say for sure what you meant, but the literary background in me makes me to decipher that you called for a truce. well it is the hallmark of a Godly man to seek for peace after a quarrel. I do not want you to see me as some body that supports the terrible situation in the Niger delta. My argument has been, it is still, and will ever be that the modus operandi of these boys is fast making them to lose sympathy. Maybe you do not know the type of psychological trauma that these hostages go through daily. as a foreigner you sleep and wake up seeing all these deadly weapons, in the midst boys that smoke weeds and drink kainkain all day, the normal fear is that they may change their mind and execute them any minute, it is not a palatable experience. anyway no foreign government takes them seriously any more, all they do is that if any national is kidnapped, all they do is get the Embassy to arrange the crisp dollars they requested for and pronto they are released. They can not fight injustice like this!!!

what are we talking about. who is saying that the hand over  will not take effect. can you prevent it. mind you this is a country where anything can happen and nobody discusses it. even when you bring the topic up, nobody is ready to hear you out. even if somebody hears it. he or she keeps it  to him or herself. the only thing we can succeed in doing is to make it a topic on sun newspaper. why should we be involving ourselves in an issue that will not favour us.
29 may is going to come and go and nothing is going to happen.
   it's me  seke

Abeg na God go bless you Gift4all, May 29th WILL go well. There are enough people calling on God for a smooth transition. God's hand is over Naija and whoever is going to lead us, we should commit to His hand instead of complaining and predicting doom. Our futures(those home and abroad) are partly dependant on our new leader's actions, so let's keep praying for him.

Difficult to predict. Let's watch and see.

Thank God that we are alive today. Nothing will stop the D-Day of 29th May. U de watch am e de enter or de go. Them don carry go trust Naija. Make we pray for peace for our Naija.

hu tlk seh nottin no go happen? abeg jareeh, no bi 9ja? u knw, we nigerians, anywhere we r, somethin has 2 happen. iz just one of those things dat need god's intervention 2 stop so those dat r sayin nothin is definitely not gna happen r havin very high hopes. i dnt pray something shud happen o but occasions lyk dis brings something with it.

I believe it will be successful by the special grace of God.

The time moves near

Our Baba who art in Aso Rock
Balogun of Owu is thy name.
Thy handover shall soon come
thy will has been done in Umaru and Goodluck.
Leave us this May 29th,
your departure date.
Lead us not into anarchy.
Forgive Turaki his disloyalty as we forgave your failed third term plot
Deliver him from INEC hammer
for Otta is thy destination, with all that is thine
thy bag and thy baggage
forever and ever
just go ooo
Amen

@richylaw,

Obasanjo leaves Nigeria uncertain future By DULUE MBACHU, Associated Press Writer
1 hour, 29 minutes ago



When Olusegun Obasanjo was elected Nigeria's president in 1999, Nigerians hoped long years of military misrule were behind them and stable democracy was ahead.

As he leaves office Tuesday, Nigeria's democracy is in doubt, and its people seem uncertain of their future. But Obasanjo, a 70-year-old former military leader, is credited with making economic strides, and earned respect abroad for his efforts to secure peace across Africa. While he will no longer be president, his influence in Africa's most populous country will likely remain strong.

Many of his critics say he failed woefully. Obasanjo, though, counts his greatest achievements in terms of intangibles.

"Democracy is not a destination, it's a journey," Obasanjo said in a nationally televised farewell address Monday. "We are well on our way to a greater destination."

Term limits kept Obasanjo from running again, and he says he will be a farmer after he leaves office. But last-minute political engineering has ensured a powerful party position for him: chairman of the party's board of trustees. A daughter, Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello, won a senate seat on his party's ticket in April elections and is likely to help keep the family name in the limelight. His wife Stella died in 2005.

Umaru Yar'Adua, picked by Obasanjo to lead his People's Democratic Party ticket, was declared winner of the elections that domestic and international observers said were deeply flawed. Yar'Adua takes office Tuesday, but has been battling a crisis of legitimacy since the vote.

"After eight years, Obasanjo is leaving Nigeria the way he met it," said Emma Ezeazu, who leads the Alliance for Credible Elections, an umbrella of civic groups campaigning to end the country's history of vote-rigging. "We have a tradition of rigged elections but he has given us the most-rigged election in the country's history."

When Obasanjo took office in 1999, his credentials were among the most impressive of Nigerian politicians. He succeeded an assassinated predecessor as military ruler of the country in the 1970s, then became the first military ruler in Africa to voluntarily transfer power to an elected civilian government in 1979.

Retiring to his farm on the outskirts of the country's biggest city, Lagos, Obasanjo set up the Africa Leadership Forum and became an international statesman renowned for its governance advice to other African countries. When the military toppled the civilian government that succeeded him, Obasanjo became a vocal critic of the autocratic regimes that spanned more than 15 years.

Obasanjo was charged with plotting to topple Gen. Sani Abacha in 1995 and given a life jail term that was later reduced to 15 years. Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar, who succeeded Abacha on his death in 1998, freed his old friend Obasanjo.

Obasanjo won the elections that followed by a landslide. He vowed to tackle Nigeria's debilitating corruption and abysmal power supply situation, as well as heal ethnic and religious wounds that made the country prone to upheavals.

Obasanjo said Monday his restive nation of 140 million people, split among 250 ethnic groups and almost equally between northern-based Muslims and southern Christians, had grown more united under his tenure.

"We have become simply Nigerians interested in the development and progress of our country. This is a great gain," he said.

Obasanjo had also pledged to make Nigeria a leader on the continent. He ended his tenure with a farewell tour of Sierra Leone and Liberia, where he played a leading role in bringing peace after years of civil war. He has sent Nigerian peacekeepers to several African hot spots, and hosted talks aimed at ending the bloodshed in Sudan's Darfur region.

But after eight years in office, many complain that Nigeria is still rife with problems. The country's infrastructure has decayed, and fuel shortages and power cuts — which Obasanjo promised to end within two years of assuming office in Africa's leading energy producer — have hit their worst levels in the country's history.

The oil sector remains volatile, with attacks by militants claiming a greater share of the country's exports and shaking world markets. Corruption remains endemic.

"The public was betrayed on so many levels," said Nigerian Nobel literature laureate Wole Soyinka, who with 48 fellow laureates from around the world called for new elections. Of Obasanjo, the writer says: "Reluctantly I've been forced to conclude that he's a dictator at heart."

Some critics, like Olisa Agbakoba, a human rights lawyer and president of the Nigerian lawyers professional body, make a distinction between his political failings and economic achievements.

"His politics pulled him down," Agbakoba said, citing Obasanjo's failed attempt to amend the constitution in order to run for a third term in office. "On the economic front I think there is progress."

Agbakoba said Nigeria paid off its foreign debt of more than $32 billion in a deal Obasanjo's government negotiated with the Paris Club of creditors last year. New economic partnerships forged with China have reduced dependence on the West, Agbakoba added.

But many of the problems he promised to solve appear likely to remain long after he is gone.

"At the time Obasanjo came to power, Nigeria was completely divided by years of military misrule," said Ezeazu, the elections monitor. "He has spent eight years not healing any wounds."
