Thank God they ignored that clueless asslicker called Rochas Okorocha.

He's a disgrace to Igbo and PDP in general.

I bet he'll be licking his wound right now.

You should have noticed by now that the Alqaeda Peoples Party (APC) is anti-Igbo. We must ensure that Jonathan remains there till 2019.
No, he is waiting to be told.
Anyway, let APC go get Obama to be buhari's running mate. It won't change anything. Most pple u see on NL shouting "sai sai buhari", will eventually dump him for GEJ, come Feb 2015.
BTW, GEJ till 2019.

Even if somebody from the heavenly host is chosen as Buhari's running mate they will still be a hard sell. Buhari is a former dictator, one who saw it fit to wrest power from a democratically elected government. That is a very big stigma to wash off and it will continnue to be the cause of his downfall no matter how dazzling his rhetoric might sound.

Anyone who spearheaded a forceful takeover shouldn't be allowed to lead in a democracy.

He didn't plan the that...he was just put there by the people who did. Get your facts right.

Prof Yemi Osinbajo is the most credible candidate on this list. I hope he makes it to be the running mate. With that APC's victory is 75% sure.

Reasons: 1. we have two people of tested and trusted integrity.
2. We have a Muslim-Christian ticket...which is against the speculated Muslim-Muslim ticket.
3. Prof. Yemi is and rccg pastor and we know how such a position can influence things in the present day Nigeria.

Let's keep hoping that the best candidate is picked. God dey!
We need a person that is politically popular.

After Mohammadu Buhari emerged the All Progressives Congress(APC) candidate for Nigeria’s presidential election in 2015, the next move is to choose a running mate. Series of meetings are currently being held by APC party leaders to come up with the best running mate for him.

Here is a list of possible front-runners being speculated:
Prof. Yemi Osibanjo, former Attorney-General of Lagos State
Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, the Rivers State governor
Mr. Babatunde Fashola, the Lagos State governor
Mr. Adams Oshiomhole, the Edo State governor
Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the immediate past Ekiti State governor
Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora, former Lagos East Senator
Senator (Prof.) Ajayi Boroffice, serving Ondo State Senator
Mr. Wale Edun, former Lagos State Commissioner
Mr. Supo Sashore, former Attorney-General of Lagos State

buhari is too old to govern nigeria cool cool

I think him being old makes it a better deal for us.

Reasons: 1. I believe no young man can mount that position because he is most likely to be intimidated by our old "corrupt" folks. They'll tell him we are your father and we've been here for a while. And can even use their power, connections and money to bring him down.

2. Buhari is old and I believe he can confront the old "corrupt" folks. The worst thing they'll do to him is to kill him and I believe he is ready to die...He is above 70. So he'll walk without fear bearing in mind that the worst they'll do to him is to kill him but for a young man... such decision will be hard.

3. He has ruled Nigeria before now and from the history I read, the previous govt before his was very very corrupt and in the few years he spent there, he was able to flush the system. Then WAI, environmental sanitation, first come-first served basis were used @ airports, car parks... to mention a few.

So I still believe he's the best person that can flush the "corrupt" system we have.

All I want as a person is for us to have a Nigerian dream where you know that if you work hard, if you do the RIGHT thing, you'll be rewarded and you'll be seen as the good guy not "dull" or "unwise" person.

Cheers.

Leadership starts from the home

Ask your boss
Ask your wife
or you can even Ask your parents ''in Olamide's voice''

You obviously are under the halo effect.

It is the halo effect that makes the baker think that he can run a successful bakery with just baking skills or a chef that thinks his cooking is all that is required to run a successful restaurant.

For one to be successful in a specific role one must have developed the skill set that will be used in that particular role. Raising a good family while commendable in itself is not a criteria for successfully leading a country. The family is not a democracy, the parents decisions are final, children don't get to decide which instructions of their parents they will follow.

Saying that Buhari raised good children therefore we should vote for him won't stand. What we want to know are his traits as a leader and as an individual, his plans for steering this nation to greatness and so forth. If anyone thinks that their record as a parent (no offence to all the good parents out there)is a prerequisite for leadership positions let them go and open a school and lead there.

I don't think that's all we need. In 2007, Fashola was not popular and I can say he delivered even though he didn't meet my expectations, He did absolutely well!

Also, before Late Dora Akunyili became the Nafdac boss, she wasn't popular but she did excellently well while there.

So being popular is not the most important factor but having done something and in that little or big thing you've done, people have seen u excel and stand out. Your story will definitely move places.

To me the most important is TESTED and TRUSTED INTEGRITY!!!

Truth be told: the South Easterners are so politically irrelevant in this country!
- In APC,they are back-benchers.
- In PDP,they are floor .
APGA,the only party d to SE,is moribund.

Little wonder,when the call to form a mega party (APC) came,the decision to carry APGA along hesitantly came last.
Rotimi Amaechi,in that list,is a South-Southerner.

And your point is?

Adams too was a muslim. The PDP bigots will use that against APC.

Give Adams and Fashola ministerial appointments. Oby Ezekwesili as vice will make alot of sense. Women appreciated what she did with the bring back our girls candidate and her records before that time speaks clearly for it self.

I do not think Amaechi is good enough. Fayemi is definitely a no no. APC needs to win at least 70% of the votes in the South West, I don't think Fayemi can deliver that.

Rochas would have been another good option.
HE WAS... ADAMS ALIYU OSHIOMHOLE IS NOW A CHRISTIAN FULL STOP.

Man of integrity indeed. The fact that he lead that coup d'état signifies that he doesn't not believe in the democratic principles or system. In other words he can choose to disregard the laws of the land to achieve his own goals. Besides it wasn't as though his regime was characterised by fairness and justice, reports abound of him stifling the press, involving in human rights abuses and questionable economic policies. All of a sudden in this democratic dispensation we are suppose to see in him a messiah that will move this country forward?

As I said earlier the fact that he was an ex dictator is a very big stigma to get rid of. It speaks volumes against him as a leader.

At the end of the day we as nation should be ashamed that the only other option for us to choose a leader asides the uninspiring GEJ is a recycled dictator.


If Shagari regime is what democracy is about may nigeria never hav democracy.
d PDP's evil ancestor, d National Party of Nigeria (NPN) under weak president Shagari looted d country to bankruptcy to d extent dat no nation would borrow d heavily indebted nigeria any more money. 4 d 1st time in nigerian history d fed govt could not pay salaries. No food, no money. Soap, milk, sugar etc popularly called essential commodities disappeared from d shelves just like in Zimbabwe. d NPN vampires partied away conspicuously while nigerians groaned in unimaginable suffering. d very foundation of d nation was shaken. It was utter chaos. Fortunately 4 nigeria, d patriotic duo of Buhari & Idiagbon came to 9ja's rescue. d warehouses where d NPN criminals hoarded foodstuffs & commodities were thrown open & d nigerian people were given relief. d NPN crooks did not get to power thru free & fair elections & would never leave via elections.
Yes d coup was unconstitutional but necessary to avert imminent collapse of nigeria just like d doctrine of necessity dat brought GEJ to power was unconstitutional but necessary to halt imminent chaos.
I don't know of u but I'm proud dat GMB, who has been tested & proven to be one of d greatest nigerian patriots of all time is once again stepping up to rescue d ship of state dat is drifting dangerously & in danger of sinking in d evil sea of corruption under dis clueless leadership
