APC against PDP or the rule of an extract from the minority section of the country, Goodluck Jonathan!?

APC against PDP or the rule of an extract from the minority section of the country, Goodluck Jonathan!? APC claims that PDP and PDP members do not know what they are doing about moving Nigeria forward hat it is only former CAN and CPC and any other party in support of the opposition alliance that knows what they are doing about moving Nigeria forward! Is this the truth? Certainly not it is either APC has decided to conveniently lie or they are just power hungry and are ready to say anything under high heaven to see if they can buy public opinion against the PDP. While I am not holding brief for PDP but I am convinced as well as any right thinking person that while we have for sure good APC governors there are also good PDP governors and in like vain there are bad PDP governors as well as bad APC governors. In any case if this were not true why is APC as it is presently composed half CAN/CPC and half PDP, yet APC continue to shout that they are against PDP. The other fact is that some elements in the North that feel quite aggrieved that Goodluck Jonathan is Nigeria president and of course it is not a secrete that if for any reason President Yardua had survived most unlikely Goodluck Jonathan would never have been president of Nigeria! Those who left PDP for APC are mainly from the North and the real reason they joined APC is to find a way for a northerner to rule the country why I do not see anything wrong in a Northerner ruling , but what is the hurry about ? After all the North had ruled the country for several decades before and the country was not fixed, the few thing that moved all happened mostly when southerners moved into the scene. While I know that there are great Northerners who could turn the country around just like any other Southerner but will this elements as Nigeria is currently composed allowed to ever emerge as the nation’s leader? I doubt The major reason APC wants power at all cost simply not PDP , Some of those Northern elements do not like Jonathan and they want him out at all cost and definitely not to come and move the country forward as APC claims . Most likely when the Northern element gets the power they seek we all will come to the realization that it would be business as usual! Besides what is the APC coming to do, the solution to the Nigeria economy lies in reforms of the agric sector and a total revolution of the agric sector to create much needed employment and reenergize the economy and if you have been following the president closely agric sector has taken a quantum reap from what we know before! The other sector so vital is the power sector the President has done a great job there but recently based on reports milling around a substantial improvement in the power sector is being deliberately sabotaged by some elements either on their own or to garner support to the opposition! If I should advise the President three sectors he should put an eagle eye on are the power installations and distribution as well as petroleum products distributions. There was news that I that in the last one and half weeks there has been destruction in the Ejigbo area distribution end. Once it is fixed some elements blow it up again. No evidence directly links the opposition to this but it is expected that if the destructions lead to fuel scarcity that the opposition may capitalize on it to stir up trouble for the government. Now my advice to the president is that orders should be issued that any one caught tampering with any PHCN installations any NNPC facility especially the ones related to fuel distribution should be shot at sight! In addition both military and civil defense officers and men should be deployed in all strategic installation with the order top shoot at site any one messing around with any of our installations! In addition it is suspected that some of those who bought the Generation and distribution arms of PHCN are sympathetic with the opposition and this should not be taken lightly any one of them investigated or observed to be in any way sabotaging FG’s effort to get power to Nigerians for political reasons should be dealt with according to the law. My advice to the opposition is that they should work hard in a legal way to see if they can move out the president from Aso rock not in a way questionable and out rightly dubious. Even if the opposition should win we expect them not to tear down structures already built by the president but to build on those structures, period! What is more amongst Alh. Shehu Shagari , Gen. Buhari, General Babangida, Gen Abacha and Gen. Abdulsalam Abubakar spanned almost twenty years of virtual uninterrupted rule of elements from the North and what did Nigerian and in particular the ordinary Northerner got out of that, other than the bogus city of Abuja and probably some few roads and bridges! But the substance of it, is how does the bogus city of Abuja impacted in the lives of the ordinary Northerner. The main stay of the economy of the North was agriculture and none of these Northern regimes did any thing that worth a hill of beans to ginger concrete agricultural growth in order to improve the lives of the ordinary Northerners instead the agric sector as well as the power sector, even the petroleum sector and rail were completely destroyed and buried by these leaders., but these were the main things that would have improved the lot of ordinary Northerner as well as other Nigerians. Within the last two and half years, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan had done more in the agric sector to improve the lot of the ordinary Northerner more than all these Northern leaders had done in nearly twenty years! That apart, the question for Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu is, if for any reason he succeeds in handing power over to the North, what next!? Well I hope he is not nursing the ambition and hope that he would order the Northerners around; if he hope for that then he must be suffering from amnesia because it meant he must have forgotten so soon what happened to his kins man, Chief Obafemi Awolowo after he used his hunger strategy to bring down the Igbos and then hope he was a bird to fly along with birds from the North, he was told to shut his mouth and that he remain a butterfly by one of the Northern who is now a retired General and a multi billionaire in Dollars. He was not just told, it is known that the General actually physically hit the economist hunger strategist across the face! Some people believe that the General is richer than some states in the North joined together! So Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu be aware some elements in the North wants power at all cost not because of those fancy things going on in your brain about building the country and you simply cannot control them once they are in the drivers seat! Besides Senator Bola Tinubu is not even in control of the entire South West, just barely five states and even at that, Lagos will still vote for Jonathan again! Yes and even some of the most of the remaining four states Jonathan will still win in some of them despite the noise and cacophony being raised by Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu because even a fool knows that Tinubu has no muscle what so ever to dictate to the Northerners once they are firmly fixed at the drivers seat and may I also remind Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu that out of about 54 years of the nation’s life span the North has been managing the country for well over 40 years leaving a paltry 15 years or there about for the whole of the south, I mean South East South south and South West! So what is in it for Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu to gain by returning power quickly to the North is it that, for the whole forty years they had done fantastically well for even Northerners let alone the whole country. President Goodluck Jonathan has simply struck the cord to move the whole country forward, Agriculture, and so long as he continues to improve on the foundation he has laid just few more years not only that our economy would improve the lives of ordinary Northerners would improve dramatically as well as that of other Nigerians this is a clear departure fro m ridiculous ‘visions’ many of our leaders use to bamboozle us. The power sector has been unbundled with stiffer supervision and investment power would not only be available for home but for our industries! After this any other person who is coming in would concentrate on consolidation.
