  3. I knew we would get here. Congrats to Nigerians, for the power has shifted to us. We are evolving to the next level and I'm sure we are ready for that change. This is not the end! Pls let's all still be on our feet, bcos gone are those days any politician will just think they will go sit there and do nothing for us, feed their generation unborn. Let's be at alert and vote out any lousy government. Don't worry my people, fear not the north, the 25% win spread has given Nigerians more power over any tribe. God bless us, God grant our new president Buhari more wisdom

  5. I am really delighted for the spirit of good sportsmanship demonstrated by Dr Goodluck Ebele. Jonathan. I hope all the "Abobakus" will learn from this and exhibit decorum and civility after the announcement. The country belongs to all of us and not a property of anybody or any group. Long live Nigeria

  17. I've always shared the same views with the Iconic President Good luck Ebele Jonathan whose problem incidentally was the sycophants around him ,who prevented most of his good works not to get the expected public appreciation.. However I've learnt more to my life ( from my Icon president ) since 28th march 2015 as follows: 1) As a leader you need to be more patient no matter what; 2) You need to fulfil all your promises both private & public ( with specific reference to him conducting a free ,fair & credible election).. The big issue now is "let General Buhari thrive to bring all the most harped change in all facet of government ; and also consolidate on the rare precedence of conducting a freer & fairer & more credible election ...Never again to the dark cruel days of history... " To me General Buhari is our president elect, but the Iconic President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was the clear winner of the march 28th presidential election" long live my Icon

  19. Aribisala, the most honourable thing for you to do is just go and hang yourself.

  20. Sai Baba,
    Congrats and welcome to service rendering devoid of corruption.
    Please help us in Rivers State talk to Jega to insist on card reader for April 11 elections. PDP here is very forceful and can rig to the extent that Dakuku will vote for Wike.
    Please take this as priority assignment, we want to be like the rest of Nigeria, voting and having their vote count. Thanks
