GEJ was not removed. His tenure expires and was voted out.


No you're wrong. GEJ was given a "democratic coup" with the collaboration of the western powers.

You're too idealistic.

The idea that "we the people" obtains in the US is another fallacy you succumb to.

There's constituted authority given powers to run the affairs of the nation. You, as the supposed master, are cowed by the instruments of that authority. You've no power over the police, but the police bosses have power over you. You, as the master, cannot command anyone in the military, but PMB as Commander in Chief can. They make the laws and you must obey the laws. If the FRSC says you can't drink and drive, you must obey or have your ass hauled to jail.

So where's the source of your power?


Your mastery is illusory designed to make you accept the domination of the ruling class over you.

Look at the US political system: majority does not carry the vote in general elections, the few in the electoral college does.




The last statement you made helped me define you quickly as very “ignorant”

America is not a democracy. I repeat America is not a democracy.... IT IS A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. The founders created the electoral college so that 2 states (like New York and California) due to over population cannot just determine the political outcome in presidential elections thereby neglecting “middle America”

This is what is driving some liberals insane because they want only California and the New England area to produce the president because of the majority of electorates who reside in those areas... so what happens to Oklahoma, Tennessee and the rest of the rust belt? That is why states were incorporated into the electoral college with values reflecting not just the population but other criteria. NY and CA still have large electoral numbers, I think CA is 39 or 40 or so but that’s the max. Now once the election is over, there are representatives who go to the electoral college to cast their votes based on the outcome of how their states voted. So if Texas has 35 electoral
Votes and say a republican wins the state, the norm is that all 35 delegates will go to the electoral college and vote 35 for the republican candidate which justifies the result on ground. That is why on election night, the media can confidently call out who won the elections in America barring any eventuality of the 2000 Florida recount

It was liberals like you and the Democrat party who almost corrupted this age long tradition when Trump won. In their frustration they wanted to intimidate these electors at the electoral college to do what is against what their respective states voted for in the presidential election.

Now to address your other part of President is C in C and I am not or the road safety is your king and you are not... it shows how myopic and narrow minded you are. Do you know how the concept of the “state” evolved ? You don’t and I won’t give you free classes on a public forum. If you don’t know go do your research and stop exposing nauseating ignorance in a public forum

Only one man can be at the helm of affairs in any country BUT if that country is run on the principles of representative government and the rule of law, the people are the Boss
HOW?

The people ( I am not saying only me or only you) can force the president to resign if they come together and make the place ungovernable

If you know history, you will see that as powerful as a US president, Richard Nixon, when he saw that he was losing support from his people, not one man but his people meaning his country men, he didn’t even bother to go through an impeachment process - he resigned. Do not forget when he resigned in 1974. He has about 2 and half years more to complete his tenure which was January 20 1977.

Theresa May resigned because he lost the confidence of his party and most Britons

Even in Brazil and all over Europe and Asia leaders are known to resign when the my feel they have lost the trust and loyalty of their people

You know why? Because the people is the Boss!


So if Nicolas Maduro of Venezuela and Africa dictators are oppressing their people Does not make it a gold standard


I am not expecting to convince you because your messiah Buhari has conditioned you to believe that what is happening in Nigeria where the government easily harass dissenting citizens and intimidating the judiciary is a normal thing


No Sir it is not!


I will leave this argument to another day because Christmas has started full blast here in California.,. It is 1020 am here ... hope una get light for your area at Mushin? Anyway, get some rice from Iya Risi. Tell mama Ugo to give you one gulder, on my account grin Merry Christmas bro

First of all there's no where in my post I called the US a democracy, because democracy is not a form of government. Rather, the system of government, constitutional republic in this case, allows the system to be a democracy. But the electoral college is entirely unique to the US, and therefore does not allow the full practice of democracy in its purest sense.

Look, there's no point going on about this, because we're both dug too deep to be swayed.

I don't drink, but Iya Risi's rice sounds like a good prospect, especially if it accompanies some soft peppery kpomo.

Nice But still return our stolen yams. May the soul of the soldiers who were killed by Boko Haram due to no equipment rest In peace

As I said before, Sambo Dasuki was just another victim of a failed and corrupted system. From the very moment his trial began, he insisted on an open trial but they refused. They were scared, which simply means there's something fishy. It seems that when push come to shove Mr integrity himself might have a skeleton in his cupboard in connection with the arms deal scandal.
