Finally the almighty presidential media chat has come and gone. So what have you learnt from the chat?

For me the panel of journalist no try at all, with respect to the lady. One was even asking the president how he feels that PDP didn't win elections in Edo and Ondo. Crap! How will that affect the price of garri? Not even one of them asked a question starting with 'how'! Pls help me ask jona why roads awarded in Nigeria more than 7 yrs ago is yet to be completed?? Jonathan was always right when he told them thay should be the one telling him some things, like what happened to the licenses given to some people for refining petroleum. They can do better.

Secondly, the whole stuff was like a beer parlour discussion. No discreet points made. No evaluation of targets previously set. No statistical facts and projections. Just the same routine, verbose and vauge responses to every question asked.

Thirdly, one thing is clear - Fuel Subsidy will not be removed totally, not soon. But expect no much positive changes until subsidy completely goes.

Fourth, it's mostly same old story. About security, cost of governance, education, 2nd tenure, Electricity, corruption, etc. Practically same old stories.

Or did you learn anything different? Let's hear it...

How to talk like you're doing something when you really aren't.

I learnt nothing rather than HEARTBREAK, ENDLESS FAILURE and HOPELESSNESS. He's known to be repetitive in giving his weak approach(not working methods) to issues whenever he's asked to comment. He's a tough-talking and less action president....so, what else do u expect from him?

Not surprised that was all you learnt, comprehension has always been a national problem. If you need someone to make sense of the interview for you, why not ask politely instead of resorting to uncomplimentary adjectives like "verbose" and "vague" to describe an interview session others found pretty refreshing?

Professor, oya pls tell me what you learnt?

omicron: Professor, oya pls tell me what you learnt?

Rid yourself of the sarcasm first.

Imagine the 'Headline' the Chat has made on NTA ..."President Jonathan Says He Needs More Time to Decide If He Will Contest 2015 Elections" Even the journalist saw nothing to report. No news

^Olodo, it was a "chat" not a State of Union address.

Describing his chat as 'verbose' and 'vague' is by no means sarcastic. To me nothing discreet - not to any meaninful question asked.

president do nothing!

This here is exactly why I said Comprehension is a national problem.

Jonathan should come and chat with us on nairaland, we will definitely do better than the journalists

In your own words

^ And it's prevalent in these parts!

wesley80: ^ And it's prevalent in these parts!

Money will finish the country is greater than you.

young man, what are you really blabbing about? STFU if you got nothing to say. This thread only seeks your view about jona's chat. I have given mine. Give yours or you take a nap!

I found it difficult understanding him ,all I heard was the r sound in corruption.my bad

He cannot offer anything and he should forget about 2015 ideas.I can do better than him as well

doopsy: I found it difficult understanding him ,all I heard was the r sound in corruption.my bad

That's understandable. Take heart, there's a solution in the horizon.

The journalists where to respectful....the president dont even know some good details about activities happening in Nigeria.
But one thing i learnt was that before you critisize anything,you must get an insight into that thing....as the saying goes....
Before you critisize, you must walk a mile in that person's shoe.

Wesley80, pls in humility& peace I come asking 'what is refreshing' about this abracadabra that just happened?

bellalove: Wesley80, pls in humility& peace I come asking 'what is refreshing' about this abracadabra that just happened?

That guy probably works for them online. Brainwashing people.Our power sector is improving, our road sector will improve.Nonsense,I have being hering this for more than 30 years

Someone with two ears and one head just like you wrote the quoted below on some other thread. I'm sure she wasnt hallucinating.

The President answered series of questions from Nigerians. He also shed more light on critical issues affecting the country, ranging from the alleged negociation with the boko haram group to the issue of corruption and also to infrastructural development, fuel subsidy matter, poverty reduction and wealth creation, aswell as the health of the 1st lady among oda issues.

You dont have to agree with all he said but why describe the entire chat as a non event?

2 ears and one head ?with money

"Nigerians should be very hopeful, we don't sleep to make Nigeria work"

I was the best Governor of Bayelsa State

Seemed like the journalists were threading carefully with their questions, almost as if they've been prewarned on their level of questioning. Didn't watch much of it, I'm not willing to listen to another hour of empty promises.

The food I eat is not even an expensive food. I only eat two times a day.comedian

you may be right. They were not probing with their questions and they were always satisfied with superficial and general answers.

He eats twice a day. He eats fish pepper soup and drink kaikai.

All hail retardeen
