no hard feelings towards the Igbos in his kingdom, adding that majority
of them who are traders use his shops at Isale Eko. He pleaded that the
Igbos should just respect his feelings as he sees Ambode as a son who he
wants to see in power. The Oba who had to break his siesta to meet the

Why Jonathan lost to Buhari – Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi speaks
Emir of Kano and former CBN governor, Muhammadu Sanusi II says President
Jonathan lost the Presidential election because many people were not
happy with him and his PDP-led government. In an interview with Punch,
the Emir said high level of poverty in the nation played a deciding
factor in the voting pattern in this year's election. He said the PDP
had in previous elections consistently lost in areas that President
Obasanjo had majority of votes when he contested.
"I think in 2011, it was very clear that Jonathan had lost many states in the North that had previously been won by former President Olusegun Obasanjo. And it was clear that there was a general sense by people of the Federal Government not investing in the areas where there is a high level of poverty. I believe more and more of those states began to feel that sense of not feeling the federal presence and not feeling the impact of democracy in their pockets.

I am not a miracle worker, Do not expect miracles - Buhari
President elect, Muhmmadu Buhari, has asked Nigerians not to expect him
to perform miracles once he assumes power come May 29th.
Gen Buhari said this while speaking on the war against Boko Haram in an
interview with BBC. According to Buhari, the triumph against
the sect members would not be immediately achieved once he gets into
power but said with cooperation from Neighboring countries and the
commitment of the military, the war would be won in a short time
"For five, six years, the Nigerian enforcement law agencies, including the military, couldn’t secure 14 Local Governments. How can I promise miracles when I come? But with the cooperation of our neighbours Cameroon, Chad, Niger and the international community, and the commitment we are going to get from the military, I think it will take us a much shorter time to deal with it”, he said.

President Jonathan's 2015 Easter message to the nation
Fellow citizens,
I greet you all, especially our Christian brothers and sisters,
as we celebrate Easter in commemoration of the resurrection of our
Lord, Jesus Christ.
For Christians all over the world, the major lessons of Easter,
which we celebrate this year in the midst of general elections in our nation,
are to be found in the Messiah’s Divine love and glorious self-sacrifice for
the redemption of mankind.
This year’s celebration of Easter is taking place at a period of
very critical national choices and decisions, during which we must all be
prepared and willing to make sacrifices for greater unity, peace, political
stability and progress in our beloved country.
