Ninapha:

adebisiema:

*climbing Iroko tree with my rocket* spots Jonathan and sends him to the great beyond* *end of a liar and clueless Otuoke man*

Ninapha:


As a Nigerian I love Bahari's speech and salute his courage.

Orators are born to lift souls with their speeches but Performers are born to build on the speeches of the orators. They speak less fantastically but talk with their achievements.

Bahari is the orator.
Jonathan is the performer!

Ride on Jonathan u are the man.

[size=15pt]RUBISSH,!!!....HAS HE NOT BEEN PRESIDENT BFORE, WHAT DID HE DO.?! [/size]

olatunji21:
The third national convention and
presidential primary of the All
Progressives Congress went under way in
the early hours of Thursday at the Teslim
Balogun Stadium, Surulere, Lagos.
Five aspirants of the party, who include a
former Head of State, Maj. Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari; a former Vice-
President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar;
Governor of Kano State, Alhaji Rabiu
Kwankwaso, publisher of Leadership
newspapers, Mr. Sam Nda-Isaiah, and
Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas
Okorocha.
Although known to be taciturn, Buhari sent
the crowd of delegates and party members
agog with his speech delivered in less than
10 minutes.
He said, “I have always served Nigeria to
the best of my ability. I have always tried
to give more to the nation than it has given
me. This is the principle of service that has
guided my public life. Thus, I am not a
rich person. I can’t give you a pocketful of
dollars or naira to purchase your support.
Even if I could, I would not do so. The
fate of this nation is not up for sale.
“What I will give you, and this nation is
all of my strength, commitment, sweat and
toil in the service of the people. What I
can give you is my all.
“I do not intend to rule Nigeria. I want
to democratically govern it with your help.
I seek a Nigeria where Christians and
Muslims may practise their faiths in peace
and security; a Nigeria that is just and
where corruption no longer trespasses into
our institutions and national behavior and a
Nigeria where our diversity could be used
for our national prosperity.
“Nigeria is our home. Let us now turn it
into the great nation we know it can and
should be.”
Buhari’s speech drew a loud ovation from
the crowd, some of who gave him a
standing ovation.
In what could pass for where the sympathy
of the governors and the APC national
leadership lies, the VIP section, where the
party’s past and current national chairmen,
Chief Bisi Akande and Chief John
Odigie-Oyegun, respectively sat went
agog after Buhari made his famous speech.
When called to make his speech, Okorocha,
who said he has the capability to lead the
country, added that he remained the
youngest of the contestants and thus should
be giving the votes to lead the party in next
year’s general election.
But the crowd beside the VIP section
busted into chants in Yoruba, saying
“Arugbo la fe, arugbo la fe,” meaning “we
want an old man.”
Specifically, Okorocha had told the crowd
that Buhari is above 70 years old, even as
he said Atiku is 63 while he gave the age
of Nda-Isaiah as 58 and that of
Kwnkwaso as 58, saying that he is only 52.
Okorocha said, “Buhari is 73, Atiku is 68,
Nda-Isiaih is 58, Kwankwaso is 58,
Obama is 53, Rochas is only 52 years old.
Nigeria of today is different of Nigeria of
the 60s, I offer myself to run for the
exalted office of the president in order to
save the suffering masses.”
Atiku said he had been in the vanguard
against bad governance and military
dictatorship, recalling how state agents
stormed his house and tied up his son and
killed six policemen during an attack on his
home in Adamawa during the military era.
He said, “Nigerians are tired to see
Nigerians slaughtered everyday and the
government is unable to do anything about
it. Nigerians want change because they pay
for electricity and get darkness. Nigerians
are tired of the dangerous PDP
mathematics, where seven is greater than
20 and six is greater than 19, where judges
are beating up thugs, where the Speaker
and parliament members are tear gassed.
“They are tired of where our police force
and army now butt of jokes in beer
parlours and are being compared to
hunters; where our roads are death traps.
This is the reason why Nigerians want
change, we can give Nigerians the change it
deserves. You people came out because you
believe in change, you believe in a nation
bound in freedom, peace and unity, you
believe that our nation can serve as a
leader in Africa.”

These are the same people who say that if they do not win the 2015 election, they will hold a parallel government. True democrats don't talk like that.

SirShymex:


Bredrin, what is your opinion on this old Abraham Lincoln-esque (in terms of failing at the polls) wannabe man?

I will like to hear what you think cos I don't trust Nigerians when it comes to cerebral decision making lol. And I don't want nostalgia.

sukkot:
SirShymex wagwan brethren ? wha ya say man ? nuff respek due man. nuff raspect. not quite sure i understand the question. what is my opinion of abraham lincolnesque wanna be man ? you talkin bou buhari i presume ?

SirShymex:


I'm bless, bredrin. Wahh ya say?

Yes, Abraham Lincoln wannabe is my tag for him due to how apparently he has failed at the polls lol. The Buhari man.

I'm just trying to understand the hype. He might end up becoming a great leader, but his age is scary and it has "dead president" written all over it. Hopefully, he will select a great vice - and not someone as dumb as GEJ.

sukkot:
his age is scary ? you for real ? the man is only 71. thats very young. mugabe is 90 years old and he still putting his foot up peoples a-s-s in zimbawe. as for his pedigree ? that man is the real muthafuckin deal like evander holyfield
