Sambo Wants Elections Postponed For 6 Months, INEC Says Elections Will Hold by Nobody: 5:08pm On Jan 22, 2015 |
Plans by President Goodluck Jonathan and his team to scuttle the general elections scheduled for February have come to light, with National Security Adviser Sambo Dasuki openly calling for postponement of the elections. Sambo spoke at a Chattam House lecture in London, offering the excuse that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has not distributed Permanent Voters Cards across the country as was expected. SaharaReporters had reported several months ago that President Goodluck Jonathan was reluctant to hold national elections because his popularity had dwindled considerably and he feared losing the election. In the last few days, as the popularity of General Muhammadu Buhari for the presidency has grown, Mr. Jonathan has spent vast sums of money mobilizing people to call for the postponement of the elections. INEC spokesperson, Kayode Idowu told SaharaReporters today that INEC was not aware of Col. Dasuki’s suggestion, and that the elections will hold as scheduled. Several sources connected to the presidency told SaharaReporters that President Jonathan wants the elections to be postponed for at least six months, a period that will enable him to appoint a new INEC chairman of his liking to oversee the elections. Professor Attahiru Jega’s tenure expires in July 2015. With Jega out of the way, Jonathan would appoint another INEC chairman who would further postponement of the election. SaharaReporters sources stated that President Jonathan is seriously considering an “Interim Government of National Unity” that would elongate his tenure till 2017. That would mean he spends eight years in power as President, the equivalent of two terms. In 2011 as he assumed office, his first effort was to call for a new six-year term arrangement, which was shot down by Nigerians. He also recently attempted to smuggle in a new constitution by the back door through the National Conference.

Sharia reporters are working for APC. They have staged a bomb scare in Buhari's campaign today so that they will dissociate themselves from bokoharam. That is how they framed a bomb blast on Buhari's convoy last year. Shekau came to tell us that Buhari is an infidel but they nominated him as their negotiator. Here is my take Bokoharam are this administration's enemies All the enemies are now in APC therefore APC is Bokoharam 53 Likes 3 Shares |

A lot can be achieved in 6 months. Quickly jail a number of opposition on corruption charges "dash" students school fees etc but they will be shocked to discover that after 6 months, he will still be voted out See other links on the issue http://www.punchng.com/news/apc-rejects-nsa-sambos-call-to-postpone-elections/ http://www.thecable.ng/nsa-wants-2015-e http://www.channelstv.com/2015/01/22/nsa-advices-inec-to-postpone-2015-elections/ So its not only Sahara Reporters Meanwhile, I saw this online Abwest I have learnt a lot from the Buhari certificate monomania. Since it happened i started looking for all my certificate. Infact i have safely kept the receipt for my jamb form, post jamb, lecture notes, textbook, photos infact my signing out white vest too. Who knows anybody may request for it. If someone who schooled before independence can be asked to present his certificate who am i. If you are lucky enough to still have your secondary school uniform and sandal please keep it. Who knows any clueless person can ask for it. 315 Likes 25 Shares |

GEJ should just bow out honourably..... The same overwhelming wind of public opinion that pushed him into Aso Rock in 2011, is the same one that is now pushing him into Otueke... ![]() Instead of trying to further aggravate the already angry masses by trying something as stupiid as postponing the elections, he should just face the impending loss at the general elections like a man, and hand over Power to GMB as peacefully as it was handed over to him.... ![]() JONATHAN FOR OTUEKE 2015 187 Likes 6 Shares |

The excuse that INEC has not finished distributing voters card is not tenable. Nigerians still have till Feb. 8 to collect their voters card from LGA or wards. There can be no 100% collection, to the best of my knowledge 75-80% average collection is okay. that is over 50 million cards from the 68million cards. Some people are not interested in voting. some weeks back, it was reported that over 38 million cards have been collected, I am sure many more would have collected their PVCs thereafter. As long as the 68 million cards are ready. PVC we must use, Feb. 14, we must vote. 80 Likes 2 Shares |

JONATHAN EBELE AZIKIWE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS : * In 2008 when Obasanjo picked you to be Yaradua's running mate who were the people that first kicked against your candidacy? The Ijaws did. Their reason was that the 2 years as governor in Bayelsa you did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Till date, your erra is still termed the worst in Bayelsa. * Why did Obasanjo find it difficult to sell you to his allies and PDP as Yaradua's running mate? You Jonathan had a case with EFCC has documents proved you embezzled N9,000,000,000 (NINE BILLION NAIRA) while your wife Patience laundered $4,000,000 (FOUR MILLION DOLLARS) all these within two years. * Ebele, who was your biggest opposition in becoming Yaradua's running mate? The answer is EDWIN CLARK. The man who today is your mouth piece and who is pretending loves you the most. * Azikiwe, amongst other tricks, what did you do to gather public sympathy? You Mr Deceitful sent people to blow up part of your house in Bayelsa to make it look like it was your political opponents. The SSS released a report which you guys later hid to debunk your dubious claim. * Jonathan, when Yaradua made you to be in charge of negotiations with the Niger Delta Militants, who were those who objected and what was their reasons? Asari, Tompolo, and Boyloaf. Their reason being that you are not sincere in the Niger Delta course but only after your pocket. SHOULD I GO ON? * What was your agreement with PDP regarding a 2nd term. You promised and even swore you will go for a SINGLE TERM *Why did you jail James Ibori and forced Aoandoka to go underground? To revenge their utmost loyalty to the late Yaradua . * Did you fulfill your agreement to Tinubu and others even when they had to betray their party at that last minute in order to canvass for you. ABSOLUTELY NO. * How did you try to mock and tarnish Obasanjo? You didn't only remove all his loyalist from your government, you also made sure you made his enemies your closest allies. You don't need me to start calling names right? * Who is Jonathan's BIGGEEST Northern Ally? Alli Modu Sherrif. The CHIEF SPONSOR OF BOKO HARAM. AWAY FROM POLITICS. * You promised Nigerians incentives in order to remove subsidy. Things like stable power, metro buses (in Lagos and Abuja), full road rehabilitation etc. MR LIAR WHERE ARE THEY. * Obasanjo's government brought GSM amongst other things, Yaradua's short time in government brought RULE OF LAW. Jonathan what has yours brought? NOTHING EXCEPT INCREASE IN CORRUPTION. * Never in the history of Nigeria has all institutions witnessed as much strike as yours. *Jonathan WHERE ARE THE CHIBOK GIRLS. * Jonathan what in Heaven's name do you need FIVE presidential jet for even with the high rate of poverty in the land. * Ebele, the ONLY Nigerian president that tried all means to DIVIDE Nigeria along Religion and Ethnic line. * The ONLY AFRICAN PRESIDENT THAT OPENLY CELEBRATES CRIMINALS AND EX CONVICTS. Kashamu, Alameisia (or whatever), Bode George. * Jonathan will rather gallivant with Nollywood stars than have a session with those brains who are truly making Nigerians proud both Home and Abroad. Or better Still, compose a comforting message to the people of North East. Nigeria as at today HAS NO GOVERNMENT. We provide our water - borehole. We provide our light - generator/ inverter We provide our security - high fence/ cctv We provide our education - private school. We produce fuel yet pay the most in the world. We have no motorable federal road. A BIG SHAME NIGERIA HAS NO NATIONAL CARRIER. HIGH Uneployment in the land. High rate of Corruption (the CLOWN wants to curb corruption with technology). JONATHAN YOU ARE A FAILURE!!! Even if WE give you 10 terms ( 40 YEARS). YOU WILL STILL NOT TAKE US TO THE PROMISE LAND 293 Likes 54 Shares |

No Jupiter can postpone this election.GEJ is either voted out honourably in Feb or he is forced to vacate that seat through popular revolt. Obj that was stronger and far more intelligent than him tried extending his tenure but was defeated by popular resistance.GEJ's case would be "moi-moi"in comparison. Its not just that Nigerians want GEJ out,but we also want GMB to mount the saddle of leadership. 54 Likes 2 Shares |
