Tale Of Two Countries: Obama Speaks, Jonathan Sinks by baynix(m): 11:42pm On Apr 15, 2013
Tale of two countries where Human Lives are Sancrosant and another Country where Human Lives mean nothing to its leaders but just another dead.

President Obama appeared in White House Briefing Room and addressed the Americans on the terror attack in Boston just hours after the attack and vowed to bring justice to any group that planted the bombs that killed 2 and maimed over 71.

In his speeach, he promised citizens that "his team will get to the root of the attack and any person or group responsible will face full justice.

Obama did not say if the attack is a terrorist act or not. Rather, that the FBI is still carrying out investigation. He reassured Americans and indeed the people of Boston of support every
step of the way.

While in Nigeria, Boko Haram has been killing Nigerians and our President takes days to respond and when he addresses the issues, GEJ enjoins Nigerians to be prayerful and pray to God.

After 2 years with over 4,000 Lives lost he appealed to the Terrorists and Killers and promised them Amnesty, which they shoved up his as_s, and nothing more since.

What a country, truly "THERE WAS A COUNTRY"

I love the part where he said "his team will get to root of the matter". United states does not practice a system of government that sets up committee upon another committee that will set up a final committee which will bring a report of the incident and then, it will be previewed and reviewed by another committee that will summit what is been called a final report which will eventually be swept under rug. 2015 please come quick.

Silly comparison. Compare like with like. You cant compare Nigeria that is faced with internal insurgency for over 3yrs now with US that is facing a major terrorist attack since 2001. Compare Nigeria with Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen,etc. Yes, these are the countries facing similar internal terrorism by the same Islamic militants. The president of those countries do not address the country after every attack. The hate for president Jonathan should not becloud our sense of reasoning.

Internal or external, what difference does it make? Lives are being lost and the incompetent, clueless man once said we should learn to live with it. He was literally 'forced' by ACN governors to even go to Maiduguri, on of the sites of all the carnage. He has never considered addressing the country once to brief us on what he's doing or what we should expect as per the situation. Apparently he feels he doens't owe the Nigerian populace any explanations. The mor@n literally admitted that he has terrorists in his govt but couldn't do anything about it! What a dumbas$! Insincerenigerian, your guy is a dumbocrat! Admit it.

You don't even know the difference between internal and external terrorism and you are boldly advertising your ignorance? OK, lets just say that we should compare Iraq and USA, since according to your logic, they are all facing the same problem - terrorism.

another very funny difference is that USA beleives that they have to use all their God given resources, both physically and mentally, to deal with the problem on hand while Nigeria beleives that we have to call on God to send down angels to help us solve our problems while we(Nigerians) sits lazilly looking on as the angels help!

Why can't you guys, for once, give the nauseating spin a break. Many now know and recognise your modus operandi that is always limited to a cheap attempt at exploiting technicalities and grey areas to obfuscate very simple issues so that the mediocrity you support is spared the scrutiny he deserves and would rightly get in serious nations with politically sophisticated folks who simply want peace and progress for their Country.

Everybody knows precisely what the OP is talking about even if you two want to embarrass yourselves as usual. Obama has taken action and we will see results. Very different to your clueless oga who limits his own 'action' to pathetically and weakly accusing Buhari of being a "major sponsor of Boko Haram" yet the former head of State is walking around freely.

You guys truly have no shame. Better to say nothing than show up here. GEJ has disgraced Nigeria. Show us a nation where a President , like a market gossip and impotent hack, is busy throwing accusations back and forward without the gumption to act on the careless and immature accusation emanating from his office. It would be better for the Presidency to say nothing rather than show the world it is lead by a weak and highly unprincipled man with no commitment to doing the right thing.

There is Never actions from GEJ , against the head of the Snake i.e the sponsors of terror, yet always talk, rhetoric, empty accusation, impotence and platitude. A woeful leader supported by aberrantly garbage supporters. You two should go and ask GEJ to take out Buhari and stop at least one "major sponsor of Boko Haram" as he claims. Stop patronising folks here with your rotten product nobody wants to buy. This is a very clear-cut issue. You two simply have no shame at all. After what the President stated below, what should be the next step if the mediocrity you worship is even a shadow of a real leader? Even for sycophancy, there should be a level decent people retreat from.

We can see how your clueful and intelligent APC/ACN led by a very honest and hardworking Tinubu will address the problem. He is already advocating amnesty to BH. Oh!, i almost forgot...one of your party leaders once said that BH will vanish in i think 3 months 'if' your party wins the presidency.

Those are strong and wonderful position of your party and leaders, comparable to that of the Obamas and McCains of this world. You and your party are indeed wonderful people, who love Nigerians and extremely clean that they visited Borno to mediate in the problem the last time.
You, Gbawe is a labelled hypocrite who dwells on misinformation and lies. You also are the resident bigot who does not even care if Nigeria is on fire as long as it helps your party to power. You, Gbawe, should be ashamed of yourself for exploiting people's woes for narrow gains.

Dishonest sycophant, your spin is not working any longer. It is obvious to sensible Nigerians GEJ is a callous mediocrity and empty-barrel only focused on his own ambition and pocket. It is disgraceful how non-Nigerians now routinely and openly call GEJ's competence into question today while sycophant like you are here attempting shameful and ultimately futile 'damage limitation'. Ask him to arrest and prosecute Buhari or get lost.
