That General Muhammadu Buhari is a religious zealot who will turn Nigeria into an Islamic State is yet one more diet in the menu of those political, ethnic, and religious rumormongers and pundits. This nonsense is tragically believed by even some of our innocent citizens because the media of the Lagos-Ibadan axis in particular, see it fit to carry out the tale for sensationalism, for profit, and because they have been financial induced by Muhammadu Buhari’s rivals. One wonders how General Buhari who introduced severe restrictions on the number of pilgrims to perform Hajj [in order to conserve the foreign exchange] could under any imagination be the one to establish an Islamic State? General Buhari’s curtailing of the rights of Muslims to perform a fundamental religious obligation was a feat no past leader, military or civilian had dared to conceive, hence the action was certainly unwelcome by all Muslims and it brought General Buhari’s government at logger head with our clerics. It was reported that our erudite scholar, Sheikh Abubakar Mahmood Gummi [May Allah have Mercy on him] was actually placed under house arrest over the issue and other matters of concern for “security” of the State. So to ignore all these unpopular actions that General Buhari’s government took, and to lampoon the same person as an “Islamic zealot”, “fundamentalist”, and so forth, is beyond human intellect of reasoning. If Muhammadu Buhari could not establish an Islamic State at the time his word was not often challenged, how could he possibly create the same in a democracy? Yet even as I write we have a "president" that has misused government’s resource to build a Church and pulpit, with a paid and full time Chaplain, and uses these facilities every Sunday to broadcast live on national networks his evangelical Christian prayers to Muslims, Christians, Traditionalists and atheists Nigerian population. Not one of our so called national electronic and or print media from the South found it fit to cry foul because the president should know that such hypocritical sermons do not represent the Faiths of the majority in Nigeria and it was time he was told his insensitivity has been “a joke carried too far”. It is all well and good when national houses of worship are built from resources of followers of those Faiths, but when the president builds a Church in Asorock, the seat of government, and used the naira and kobo of the tax payer to do that then the message is loud and clear. Religious partisanship in a multi-religious, multi-cultural society like Nigeria is unacceptable, and I believe in my heart General Muhammadu Buhari will not be that president. So all the hyperbole about the man’s religious extremism does not hold water and leaders like Reverend Hasan Kukah and General Yakubu Gowon who know Muhammadu Buhari have spoken out in favor of his non-partisanship.

Kindly clarify the "president " that did this and the channels broadcasting the evangelistic message ; which usually would be to Love one another abeg.. it seems i have missed it.

It seems to me that Apc supporters is different from buhari supporter,i wonder what will happen if buhari loose this primaries.

FOR THE FIRST TIME, TINUBU CAN NOT UNILATERALLY HAND PICK ANYONE AND IMPOSE HIM LIKE HE DID WITH ACN.
IT IS A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
STIFF COMPETITION BETWEEN OUR PARTIES WILL GO A LONG WAY TO MAKING THEM RESPONSIBLE TO THE CITIZEN.
AS PDP HAS TAKEN US FOR A RIDE FOR 15 YEARS, SO ALSO, APC COULD DO BETTER IN LAGOS IF THEY HAVE STIFF OPPOSITION.

The police officers guarding the ballot boxes have just been relieved by a new set of policemen. they deserve the break. they stood under the sun all day.

Another good aspect of the ‪#‎APCconvention‬ is that delegates biometrics are taken before being issued tags. Kills manipulation. Sani Tukur

You don't have to be too critical of the opposition when you can't suggest an alternative means. Don't let us deceive ourselves, non of the parties would allow a young chap to go through the process and emerge as an Aspirant. Ain't you tired of close to 16years of PDP purposeless leadership?

my dear, that is what i'm saying, 16 years, nothing to show for it, even if Apc emerges victorious, which is unlikely, due to factors we all know about, it will amount to d same group of people, d looting will continue, insecurity will arise in another form, etc, we r doom if we didnt take up revolution by our own hands, n clear up all these old cargoes, we should learn from Ghana.

obinoral1179:
desperate or ambitious?

What makes any of them think he's the Messiah Nigeria needs? In this democratic dispensation all they've been doing is either jumping from one party to another, contesting (almost) every other election, merging with other political parties or slandering the government of the day.

If Buhari, being 'Mr. Integrity', could nominate a candidate based on integrity and 'Rich' Atiku could sponsor such candidate, don't you think it would speak volumes for their 'genuine' interest in the progress of this country? But rather, each has his own 'sinister' intentions latent in his every speech and every move and that's why they can't reach a consensus.

They are just increasingly desperate.

Hahahaha buhari ll nt make it pass today

Revolution? Who is clean enough to lead a revolution. After the revolution, who will emerge as the leader? For me the problem with Nigeria is not GEJ (he is just an a$$hole compounding our problems). I will not be a part of any useless revolution that will install another government that will probably be worse than what we are seeing today.
I believe the problem is with our value system. Today the pro buhari camp is jittery because of Atiku's money war-chest. Should this even be an issue when a man who many see as incorruptible is also in the race for presidency? The fact that there is a possibility that Atiku (who many see as corruption personified) can emerge because of huge money inducement against a GMB says a lot of our value system.

For as long as our value system remains as it is where money "answereth all things", no amount revolution will bring anything productive. It will only produce another Atiku or other corrupt money bags like him.

my revolution centered on taking out all these corrupt old cargo that doesnt want to retire. u know what i mean, Ghana did it

APC delegates are now proceeding to their States' assigned seats.

I can see they have giving the policemen chairs to seat. They should give them bottled water too; hope mobile toilets are easily accessible and clean.

We are saying the same thing. Sincerely, Buhari is still not the best the opposition can offer(if he emerges tonight),but it is unfortunate that the power brokers in this political party wouldn't want to present an 'unpopular' candidate to slug it out with the ruling party. Our young politicians should leave their footprints in other elective offices by delivering the true dividends of democracy and not self-serving or self-centered,which to a large extent could launch them to the centre and make them more 'popular'. About revolution,I don't see it as a viable means for a change in this age. The Arab Springs have not yielded results. Tunisia, Algeria,Libya and Egypt are still at the mercies of inept leadership after their 'revolution'. God bless Nigeria.

Buhari with his popular message will definitely be president in 2015.

Based on the Programme of events lined up at
the National Convention, the Chairman of the
National Convention Planning Committee, Kayode
Fayemi, will give a brief welcome address after
the opening prayer.

The National Chairman of the APC, John Oyegun
will then deliver the “State of the Party Address”
and also unveil the party’s General Election
Manifesto.

The National Chairman’s presentation will be
followed by some goodwill messages, after
which all the aspirants will be given 10 minutes
each to address the delegates.

After the speeches by the aspirants, the
presidential primary election will follow after
which the results will be declared.

After the declaration of results, the party will
then handover the General Election Manifesto to
the winning Presidential candidate.

Once done, the winner will then deliver his
acceptance speech.

The national Convention will be round up with
closing prayer and vote of thanks, sometime on
Thursday. - Premium times

I am back.
