I hate to see when the supposed leaders of tomorrow (Youth) keep campaining for Buhari and comparing him with GEJ, for Heaven sake why do we keep recycling leaders instead of choosin young and vibrant ones, Buhari at 72 with just WAEC, a man who destroy democracy and wanted to rule as HOS forever, he is a Grandpa and should be respected but as President of Nigeria, Pls think again or GEJ when spend 8yrs in primary school and Dr degree in Zoology that we have tested and he fails too, (His failure is always setting up committee on all matter) allow the two to face each other come 2015 and pls stop campaining for any of them, its so unfortunate that we as Nigerian has no say and those outdated leaders always manipulate the constitution to suit and enrich themselves only. For those thinking Buhari will deliver Nigeria or stop corruption, pls Emancipate Yourself from such thought (shebe money when him store don finish, he wan harvest and store again). As youths let us stop fighting FOR them and fight them to change the constitution thereby giving the Youths right to contest for those postition. An old uneducated man will always think of his class alone, will WAEC holder allow young Phd and Master's degree holders as surbodinate? Or someone that study or know only about WAR, is that what we need, GEJ has been changing the constitution to suit the youths let's keep using him since we have no better option now. God bless Nigeeria.
You don't know what your problem against Buhari is.

While going through President Jonathan's CV, I found out he spent 8-9 years in Primary School. He definitely failed repeatedly before moving to another class.

Also it is also noticeable that he did not make the minimum credit in WAEC, he had to take GCE to complete the minimum credit requirement to study Zoology University of Port Harcourt.

Some people spent 4 years in primary school and had the best results in secondary school but still ended up as mechanics and panel beaters(no mischief intended). If Jonathan had spent 8 years and ended up as a PHD holder plus becoming president of the most populous black nation on this planet, you better go on 7-day dry fasting for God to fashion the course of your children lives in the mould of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

Good leaders do not threaten violence even if they are semi illiterate like Buhari, you should not threaten to soak baboon and dogs in your people's blood.

The APC has been consistent in saying that thePDP
has ruled Nigeria for 16 disastrous years inwhich
corruption, impunity, insurgency, armedrobbery and
several ills of society held sway,but at a very close
lookat the APC, I am seeing Amaechi - 8yrs
speaker;7yrs governor under PDP,Atiku - 8yrs Vice
president under PDP, Akume -8yrs governor under
PDP,Bukola Saraki - 8yrs governor; 2yrs Senatorunder
PDP, Timipre Sylver -4yrs governor under PDP, Audu
Ogbe - 2yrschairmanof PDP, Aminu Masari - 4yrs Reps
speaker underPDP, Chris Ngige - 3yrsgovernor under
PDP, Kwankwaso - 7yrsgovernor,3yrs Defense
ministerunder PDP, El rufai - 4yrs FCT minister,
2yrsBPE chairman under PDP andto cap it all they
went to OBJ begging, a manwho spent 8 of
thedisastrous 16yrs as the maximum ruler ofNigeria
to come and lead themon a rescue mission. It is now
clearer that APCis a waste basket of thePDP, where
the people who created andperpetuated the " 16
Disastrousyears" are now dumped. please Nigerians
whatis the change in this APC?

If you don't know what proverbs are, I am sorry your education was a complete waste. It might have been better given to less priivileged who might make better use of it.

I have never anywhere claimed that I am smart. The only thing I know is that I know nothing! This is why I am studying Buhari's new book. I need to understand why he soaks baboons and dogs in human blood. You don't even have a copy of the book but I do.

Spending 9yrs in Primary school and writting WAEC and GCE before he could make it to uni is not the problem, But his E-rats should stop there nonsense of comparing GEJ to GMB... GMB is far better than GEJ/OBJ/IBB combined

My comment is brief but insightful. Spending 8yrs for FSLC means he was below average as a student. That said,he still managed to obtain PhD which is no "beans". GEJ is such a blessed politician and divinely destined as no.1 man in Nigeria. I am in no way his supporter but I like to be realistic at all times.
my dear i support u,,,,it is not how far but how well,,,,,,,,,he may have been made a slow starter by God for a purpose,,,,,,,,,,,buh he never gave up on education even wwhen he was failing,,,,,,,,,,he kept reading and fighting to pick it up wwhich he did,,,so where he is now showed he conquered his failures

GOODLUCK JONATHAN CURRICULUM VITAE
Born in Otuoke, Bayelsa State, on 20 November 1957.

Education
St Stephen’s primary school ( now state school ) Otuoke, 1961 – 1965
St Michael’s primary school, Oloibiri, Bayelsa State FSLC, 1966 – 1969
Mater Dei high school, Imiringi, Bayelsa State , 1971 – 1975
University of Port Harcourt, 1977 – 1981
University of Port Harcourt, 1983 – 1984
University of Port Harcourt, 1987 – 1995

Academic Qualifications:
First School Leaving Certificate (FSLC) 1969
West African School Certificate (WASC) 1975
General Certificate of Education (GCE O/L) 1976
B. Sc. Zoology Second Class (hons) Upper Division 1981
M. Sc. Hydrobiology/Fisheries Biology 1985
Ph. D. Zoology 1995
https://www.nairaland.com/2054236/muhammadu-buhari-goodluck-jonathan-curriculum

In 1960s up to early 1970s (precisely up to September 1973), Nigerian school calendar ran from January to December before changing to the current September to June cycle in 1973.

GEJ's birthdate was given as November 1957 and since his reported year of commencement of primary education was 1961, that means he started primary education in January 1961 at the age of 3 years and 2 months! In those days, that would be almost inconceivable. I should think that if he actually enrolled in 1961 as reported, it must be for pre-primary education of sort - the one we call "let us have peace in the house". That should explain why he reportedly spent 8/9 years in primary school.

You had a very difficult upbringing with perhaps no parental care. I really pity your plight. NEXT! grin grin grin

Jonathan = 8yrs in Primary School. Failed WAEC. Depended on GEC. Professional Zoologist. Did I hear "Academician"? grin grin grin grin

So by your logic , a person who studied zoology cannot be termed an academian.

Please kindly define who an "academician" is ?
