Nobody should Celebrate Buhari- Etcetera writes
This is another article written by etcetera on the election of march 28. Very interesting, Etcetera just take it easy so they don't shut us down hmmm, enjoy the piece below..
Why are we dancing? Why do we keep rolling out the drums each time we have a new government, only for us to start crying few months down the line? Is it that we are too quick to forget or we just love to dance? Do you celebrate a child who’s about to write his exams or the one who has written and passed? What is this jubilation for? Because I really don’t understand. Is it that the election of Buhari in itself has suddenly alleviated our sufferings? I am really confused here, hearing how six bikers lost their lives in Zaria celebrating Buhari’s victory. One would think that a people who have been shortchanged for so long by past presidents will know better to be calm and take every word of the new president with a pinch of salt until he proves to be different.

10 Key Influential persons who will be affect by President Jonathan's Exit
That President Goodluck Jonathan lost the March 28 presidential election is no longer news. Although he has been in the saddle for about six years, he has not been leading the country alone. By virtue of being very close to the President, there are men and women who have been wielding huge influence on his Presidency.
It is therefore no gain saying that Jonathan did not lose this election alone. These people calling the shots from their various comfort zones are also losers in their own right. Who are these President’s men and women?

Lost Without Him
It is another Good Friday today. Good Friday is that hope which reminds that Christ died for us and without him we are nothing, just ordinary. It is the Christ in us that makes Extra-Ordinary. It is also that moment that he asked us to drop it at his feet, that all we are going through is finished. There couldn't be a greater promise than that. This period reminds me and you that he is coming back again. Good Friday is the moment where Grace came to abound because he died today thousand years ago that we may live his grace.
Good Friday is the hope that reminds us that Christ did Rise, He is Risen and He is Alive.
Good Friday is the fulfillment of redemption. Keep in mind that Jesus Loves us daily and wants to know that
Happy Good Friday! Stay Blessed!

There seems to be a lot of Issue for the Ndi Igbo in the new government dispensation as they may have lost out in occupying the No 3 position in the country. From the result released from the National Assembly elections held on Saturday, the South-East Geo-Political zone did not vote in any APC candidate which has left them out of the race for the post of the Senate president of the Federation.
According to Vanguard news, From the results posted by the INEC, the South East neither returned any of its APC senators nor voted for any politician to emerge on the APC platform.
It was learnt that the non-availability of any ranking APC Senator from the region to take the slot of Senate President might compel the party to zone the slot to the North Central, where the current Senate President, David Mark hails from.

How Goodluck Lost The Nigerian Election-UK GUardian
For the first time ever a Nigerian president has failed to win the popular vote. It’s a landmark for democracy, but where did it all go wrong for Jonathan?
The UK Guardian, Published an article written by Max Siollun where he enumerated on the five major reasons President Jonathan lost the 2015 presidential elections. Find the article below,...
Goodluck Jonathan has earned the dubious distinction of being the first president in Nigerian history to lose an election. In many ways, Jonathan was the architect of his own downfall. He made critical mistakes that turned the public and allies against him, and led them to gravitate towards the opposition. Here’s where it all went wrong: Continue...
1. Don’t cross the boss
When Nigeria emerged from 15 years of military rule in 1999, Jonathan’s Peoples Democratic party (PDP) was formed by wealthy retired generals to inherit power from the military. One of the godfathers was General Olusegun Obasanjo, who has governed Nigeria twice (between 1976-1979 and 1999-2007). Jonathan made the mistake of alienating Obasanjo; leading the general to write a public 18-page letter containing lacerating criticism of the president in December 2013. A party member likened Obasanjo’s hectoring of Jonathan to a father’s disappointment with his son.

Statement By President Goodluck Jonathan On the Presidential Election 2015
This is the official statement by president Jonathan after the announcement of the results of presidential election yesterday,
Fellow Nigerians,
I thank you all for turning out en-masse for the March 28 General Elections. I promised the country free and fair elections. I have kept my word. I have also expanded the space for Nigerians to participate in the democratic process. That is one legacy I will like to see endure.
Although some people have expressed mixed feelings about the results announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), I urge those who may feel aggrieved to follow due process based on our constitution and our electoral laws, in seeking redress.
As I have always affirmed, nobody’s ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian. The unity, stability and progress of our dear country is more important than anything else.
