It is obvious that you are just another apc zombie or one of them that know the truth but greed won't let you say it out probably because you probably collect small benefits from one oga at apc. In which country do you see the vice presidential aspirants doing the debate instead of the presidential aspirants themselves.... Channels knows that no matter how hard they try jubril/buhari will never attend if it is made a presidential debate because.... 1. The nan can barely speak English properly. 2. Since there isn't photoshop and the video is live they won't be able to do editing. 3. People will be looking forward to see if truly he is the real president. 4.They know he will mess up or embarrass himself. 5. He will probably misunderstand the questions and answer something totally unrelated when he was in London and called us lazy youths.
chrisdstar: Pls someone should help take this to first page.
Fellow Nigerians the truth is the FG wants us to make do with VP debate, because Buhari will never,i repeat,he'll never show up for any debate, he didnt agree to show up in 2015 when he had everything to prove,even when Gej told him he'll be allowed to speak in fulani if English language was his problem,talk more of now that he is in power. Where in the world do they do VP debate? Why should VPs debate? are they the ones that call the shots in the government? Why go for the photocopy when you have the original? This is what this government have reduced us to
God bless you, whoever you are.... You literally spoke my mind, when ever in history all around the world do you hear that it's the v.p. candidates that Do the debates...
Talknochip: What will be the impact of this debate on the average Nigerian voter?!.. By that 7pm, millions will be without power supply and many more will be in the house of Some party officials collecting 5k, 10k or 50k in exchange for their PVC's... Most would have recieved fone calls during the day that the power company has disconnected their supply due to outstanding debts.. Most will still be trekking home because they want to save that Transport fare to buy their kids breakfast in the morning... Some will be detained by hospitals mgt for not being able to settle their bills... Many will be in betting houses trying to 'cut' a 'living'... Many more will be on transit going to meet that 'man' that promised to change their story after a one night stand... Many will be wrongfully detained by the police..etc.. Many will still be in traffic gridlock.. Many will hear the voices of their loved ones for the first time after days of going missing due to activities of kidnappers as a result of insecurity.. Many will be on the fone with customer Representatives of cable tv for a problem that has linger for days... May God guide us las las to elect the right people after all said and done
Start a program of weight lifting at the gym. Strong people are mentally tough people. As you age, you need not lose your physical nor your mental strength. 75 year-old men are running marathons, 80 year-old women have scaled mountains and 90 year-old grandparents are living rich, productive lives. Whether you are 19 or 93, stay fit, stay motivated and stay passionate about life.
Funny how Igbos have been swayed by the Atiku/Obi slot and losing focus on their initial clamor for Biafra or referendum. Everyone is unduly optimistic of Atikus victory at the polls. No one is looking at it from other dimensions. No one remembers the power of an incumbent president
So what happens if Atiku doesn't win? The Igbos will fall back to their Biafran cause? Isn't that laughable?
Buhari is core military man adorned in the cloak of a civilian.. he still has that military inclinations, Buhari is a despot he might use brute to remain on the saddle.. same shit played out a few months back in Osun when PDP won and it was overturned.. till date, no one said a damn thing
Should Igbos heed Nnamdi Kanu's stance on voters apathy in the east and stand our ground for Biafra or referendum? Or should we keep our fingers crossed and root for Atiku/Obi... Igbos are seemingly enmeshed in this political indecision
Can Inc be trusted? Will our votes count?
What happened in Osun is a pointer that our Inc is compromised
There should be a "pact" for power to be rotated cos even if Buhari rigs the election and holds on to power neither Hausas nor Yorubas would protest cos it's still favorable to them
Sometimes I feel Igbos are destined to be politically irrelevant
what gives thee hope PMB will rig the election and what makes you think Atiku will win the coming presidential election�or u think the election will be conducted in SE alone? bro! u need to wake up cos PMB will still win one or two states in SE

Well if u really care to know those that have always been in support of Biafra haven't been swayed one bit.
Well Naptu2, you are the resident historian..... i bow to your vast knowledge.
You, obafemee80, Royalblak007 and Explorers always have great articles. I salute

There's a reason why people wrongly assume that no sitting president has ever been involved in a presidential debate. It's because of the following controversies:
1) 1999: There was an election debate in 1999 and I watched both sessions of the debate. Atiku Abubakar debated Umaru Shinkafi in the vice presidential debate, but Olusegun Obasanjo failed to show up for the presidential debate.
2) 2003: The NEDG and BON organised the debate in 2003 and all candidates attended. However, President Obasanjo's ex-wife, Major Moji Obasanjo was one of the presidential candidates and she had spent most of her campaign attacking and insulting her ex-husband. People wanted to see the fireworks that would fly when both candidates met on stage. However, the NEDG announced that there would be two sessions of the debate because there were too many candidates and the candidates would be grouped in alphabetical order. The result was that all other candidates debated in the first session while Obasanjo was the only candidate in the second session.
3) 2011: There was a new television station called NN24. It was a news channel on DSTV and it was not a member of BON. It held its own presidential debate and Buhari (CPC), Shekarau (ANPP) and Ribadu (ACN) were present at its debate. However, President Jonathan said that he did not recognise the NN24 debate. He said that there was already an official organisation that organises debates and so there was no need for another debate. So he boycotted the debate. Consequently, the ANPP, ACN and CPC boycotted the BON debate and President Jonathan was the only presidential candidate that was involved in the BON debate.
4) 2015: President Jonathan attended the BON debate, where he debated against the candidates of the National Conscience Party (NCP), the United Democratic Party (UDP), KOWA Party and the United Peoples Party (UPP). However, Muhammadu Buhari of the APC boycotted the debate.
chrisxxx: If Buhari will not honour presidential debate tactically Osinbajo should not honour this. This plan of having the VP debating is to make sure Buhari appears himself to debate in the presidential debate. Once Osinbajo appears he can't appear in proxy for Buhari. Sense no go kill me.
And what's important about the debate?
Election is never won by debate.
Buhari might lose in debate but not in an election.
His good works will speak for him.
Debate or not Buhari is wining 2019 election and he will win BIG.
Luciferdevil2: Nahh I'm not in Nigeria so I won't. I just kind of pity for your poverty ass and that of your children who go to public school while Buhari takes his kids to London. I'm sure you ve not seen outside the shores of this country. Swerve
Randy100: Well you are entitle to your own dirty opinion. Buhari is going back to Daura whether he rigs it or not.
Where do we fall back to in case he wins this election. Dont you think we always play a bad politics by putting all our eggs in one basket. If Atiku fails what moral justification will we have to restart the Buhari campaign again?
Aturu, the topic is not about Igbos but a debate, dummy! It's funny how you people worry about Igbos more than your immediate family problems
Dont call him Aturu.(sheep). He raised a valid point. Why do we put all our eggs in one basket? In the event of Atiku losing this election which i dont pray for, do we have any moral justificatiion to go back to our biafra campaign again?

Educated zombies.
You dat can speak English properly, which position are you in now?
You think debate will determine the fact of the election?
You think the winner of a debate has automatic ticket to win the election?
The ones that has been debating very well with PHD Degree and Big Head the like of Goodluck Jonathan, where did they lead us to?
Am not surprised if Buhari win the presidential election, your will say because he didn't debate that's why he won.
Don't allow hate consume you, Atiku dollars might not get to you but Buhari's impact will be felt in your village. Use your brain.
Where do we fall back to in case he wins this election. Dont you think we always play a bad politics by putting all our eggs in one basket. If Atiku fails what moral justification will we have to restart the Buhari campaign again?
What makes you think he will win? This is not about bad politics, the people that voted him befor what has he done for them. Think.
Shey you be the taxi driver wey go carry am go Daura . Some of you here without voters card will just be blabbing .
I will hire the taxi that will take him to Daura. I have my permanent voters card since 2011. Voted for Goodluck 2011, Buhari 2015 and now Atiku will get my vote. I don't support looser.

Use your head when accusing people, do you think inec will declare PDP the leader of osun election if they intended to compromise? the game to pull people to come and vote for you is BTW your party and others. inec is to count the vote. Osun shift of winner is more of party to party than inec
