    6. Is it that you ppl are just plainly stupid or just gullible? There was an advertorial in guardian newspaper some days ago by the APC about the unfortunate NIS incidence and all of a sudden this is happening. Can't y'all see this man is just doing all these to create an impression. Why is he just doing this? Must APC speak before they can act? Clueless people.

    7. #smh - and he didn't do this since; because of election. Mschew.

      #smh - I thought GEJ was clueless but I have confirmed he and his crew have showered Nigeria with wickedness in the past 4 years because in the past 4 weeks he's done so much than the past 4 years just because of election.

Our leaders know that with cash you cam get away with murder. What is 5million to life? No one was brought to justice. All because of politics Jonathan suddenly remembered the victims. So many things happening in this 6 weeks extention. Just woke up from sleep. Goodmorning to Aso rock.

  59. Well done GEJ for keeping to your promise. It took time but what matters is that you have fulfilled your promise.

  66. This GEJ and his belated political formula. What v they been looking at all this while, they derive pleasure in playing politics w the lives of the masses. If possible for them to arrange children and present as the return of the Chibok girls l know they would v done so to score a cheap political goal. Why is is now and not wen it was so fresh, why wait till time for election transition.

    BE CAREFUL WHO YOU VOTE FOR

    Your future depends on your choice

    Fellow Nigerians, we have Just few days to our elections and below are some vital things we must consider before casting our vote.

    1. Buhari killed Ben ogedengbe by a death penalty for a crime that didn't carry death penalty when he committed it.

    2. Buhari doesn't attend the Federal Council meetings yet collects his allowances. Mr. Integrity indeed.

    3. Buhari canceled former Governor Jakande's metroline and forfeited the $50 million paid for it by the then Lagos State Government

    4 Buhari used Violence to stop the September 1985 National Conference of the National AssociatIon of Nigeria Students.

    5. Buhari jailed Tai Solarin and denied him his asthma drugs simply because he campaigned against military rule and for democracy.

    6. Buhari Jailed Nduka irabor and Tunde Thompson for writing a truthful report which embarrassed his Government

    7. Buhari raided respected Papa Awolowo's house and seized his passport so he couldn't travel out of the country. Was he also corrupt?

    8.Buhari threw Former vice President Alex Ekweme in jail even though it was proven that Ekweme never stole any money.

    9. He jailed honest and respected pa Adekunle Ajasin.

    10. He jailed Fela Kuti in I984 for singing against the dictatorial tendencies of his Military Government

    11 Doctors, remember that Buhari banned the Nigeria medical Association (NMA)

    12. Buhari stopped Ooni of Ife for traveling abroad simply because he visited the holy land of Israel in 1984

    13. He broke up press conference of ASSU in 1984 and detained four of their executives

    14 He jailed Beko Ransome Kuti who only demanded for the release of his brother.

    15 He jailed Dr. Sam Onunaka Mbakwe.

    16 He jailed Awwal Ibrahim now the Emir of Niger State before IBB pushed him aside.
    Nigerians must be careful with what they wish for!

    Please share this post to keep Nigeria democratic and free from oppression.......I am a gejite and I endorse this message
