Nigeria 2011 Election

I recently stumble on the list of presidential candidates in release by INEC and all that keep ringing in my head is who will finally enter "ASO ROCK" come April.Before I proceed below are the list os some of the known and unknown presidential candidates:

President Goodluck Jonathan (Peoples Democratic Party)
Muhammadu Buhari (Congress for Progressive Change)
Nuhu Ribadu (Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN)
Pat Utomi (Social Democratic Mega Party)
Dele Momodu (National Conscience Party)
Ibrahim Shekarau (All Nigeria Peoples Party)
Akpona Solomon (National Majority Democratic Party)
Chris Nwaokobia (Liberal Democratic Party)
Chris Okotie (Fresh Democratic Party)
Ebiti Ndok (United National Party for Development)
Iheanyichukwu Nnaji (Better Nigeria Progressive Party)
John Dara (National Transformation Party)
Mahmud Waziri (People for Democratic Change)
Nwadike Chikezie (Peoples Mandate Party)
Peter Nwangwu (African Democratic Congress)
Rasheed Shitta-Bey (Mega Progressive Peoples Party)
Yahaya Ndu (African Renaissance Party)
and Ambrose Awuru (Hope Democratic Party).

After going through this 18 man list of presidential candidate the big question is who is qualify to become Nigeria president come April 2011. From my little research from public opinion some candidates no they will never win the election and I ask myself why are they now running a race they already know they will fail or are they other incentives attach to presidential aspirants?

I will really like to take a pause here as I will sharing more light on their individual manifesto in my next write up....VOTE WISELY.
