President Goodluck Jonathan reiterated that corruption in Nigeria is over amplified.

President Jonathan who is currently on a state visit to South Africa, spoke while interacting with Nigerians living in the country. He said from his experience in public service since 1999, "those who shout corruption, corruption are really the most corrupt". In Nigeria if you dont mention corruption atleast once a day, then you have not started talking.

President Jonathan said his administration is building institutions that will curb corruption and impunity in the country.

Maybe the president was indirectly referring to Buhari, Tinubu, Dino Melaye, El Rufai and co

What a dunce President!

automaticcarzz: What a dunce President!

To call him dunce is an insult to dunce people.

May be I should rather say a clueless President.

Use another line, you are obviously one of the people he is referring to. Clueless is overused. Try something with more meaning.

automaticcarzz: What a dunce President!

Because he said what you dont want to hear. Corrupt man.

GEJ, lies and corruption are inseparable. Otherwise, how can a man who pardoned a criminal still wanted for crimes in UK make this statement:

President Jonathan said his administration is building institutions that will curb corruption and impunity in the country.

What institution is he building? Is it by his refusal to lead by example in public declaration of assets?
Or by the one month, one scandal administration he's running? Or by openly rehabilitating,politically, jailed criminals like Bode George?

GEJ is the corruption, nothing more.

Akpangbon:

Olori buruku! Awon ebi e ni won corrupt. I am a criminologist by profession.

Akpangbon:

Then, a ninconpoop President. If it makes you feel better.

Imagine Jonathan's apologists already jumped on his bandwagon celebrating the stamement made by incompetent President.

True and if these old fashioned, greedy, power mongers have access to national fund in form of 'kill-and-divide' u won't hear jack from their ugly, old faces

Can you listen to yourself? Every time you talk, I discern the attitude of someone very much amenable to cowardice and a propensity for blaming others over his own deficiency. If you were not that way inclined you would find it impossible to say the above in defence of GEJ who is always talking like a powerless, impotent victim rather than the President of Nigeria given all the tools to deal with those who threaten the interest of the Nation. No teeth at all to bite the corrupt elements and sponsors of terrors he will always nebulously hint at knowing.

All GEJ does is point fingers childishly and impotently from afar yet Nigeria never see him move decisively against anything/anyone worsening corruption, terrorism and crime. Hypocritically, he can hound Amaechi, Sylva or political opponents with alacrity or move with speed to deploy the Army against Nigerians. Never such haste or urgency of purpose against overtly corrupt elements (fuel subsidy scammers for example) and sponsors of terror. Shame on you and the immoral messiah you worship.

Does what you wrote even make sense to you? GEJ is both indecisive, impotent then ay the end of the sentence he is in a haste and has urgency of purpose.

This is the problem with you people you have spoken so much rubbish that you have confused yourself.

Those with no comprehension deficit will not be confused as you obviously are. Learn to deal with your own deficiency first before coming here to make a fool of yourself by exposing that you don't have the mental capacity and educational nous to properly interpret what is written.

@Gbawe, we know where you stand. You 'strongly believe' that Tinubu and Fashola are not corrupt. No? That alone give you up for who you are...

I listened to the man when he made that statement and i was ashamed. No sane leader should trivialize a serious matter like that. He said his many years in top government positions have shown him the true picture of corruption, yet he has refused to deal with the people he is pointing at. It's really appalling because what i saw was our president and his co-travelers celebrating corruption and deriding those that are making attempts to fight it.
For the president's information, shouting corruption, corruption is one of the ways to fight it. Most of the people who talk about it do not have what it takes to do more than talking. They try to sensitize people to change their attitudes. We all expect our leaders to do both the shouting, the scouting and routing of corruption and not to make fun of those who are doing the much they can do about the collective problem.
SHAME ON OUR RULING CLASS!!!

I just hope someone somewhere is taking notes of all these useless and utterly stewpeed statements that the retardeen is spewing here and there.

That's an insult to real nincompoops.

Yes I agree with you that shouting corruption may also help because it raises awareness that there is a problem. But I have a problem with very corrupt people shouting corruption, corruption everywhere. That is HYPOCRISY. And hypocrisy does not solve any problem. Every sane mind should condemn hypocrisy. While we expect the govt to fight corruption, positive attitudinal change is needed from every Nigerian.

Frank-C:


@Gbawe, we know where you stand. You 'strongly believe' that Tinubu and Fashola are not corrupt. No? That alone give you up for who you are...

No. You don't know where I stand because you and all GEJ fans are liars with a personal bent for mischief. You only see "for us" and "against us". Once you crudely identify those two markers, then everything, to include fact, logic and truth, fly out of the window.

You will distractingly and foolishly talk about the opposition every single time, in relation to every issue, as a daming indictment of how you lack fundamentally sound reasoning. Whereas citizens of politically sophisticated climes will naturally wonder why your President simply prefers pointing fingers than ever bringing anyone to book or attempting to bravely confront wrongdoers. I think most of you are simply not exposed or even minimally sophisticated. This is why your ilk , with issues concerning only the President with the office ultimately empowered to make a difference, prefer inanely shouting Buhari, Tinubu, Fashola, El Rufai et al. This is not done elsewhere in Nations where directly empowered leaders are held directly responsible. You people have no shame.

"Those Who Shout Corruption, Corruption Are Really The Most Corrupt"- Jonathan


And that is so true. All they want is a chance to continue looting the country dry with no improvement.

At least we can see projects executed by the Jonathan Administration.

How many did OBJ execute, or the northern gov for the last 50years of their rule.

GEJ 2015.

GEJ is the corruption, nothing more.

You asked how the govt is building institutions to fight corruption?

Well, what did the govt to INEC that brought the desired result? He replaced the former leadership and several commissioners in INEC with a credible leadership. That is the same thing he's doing in EFCC. He replaced Madam Waziri with Lamorde, who was said to be the engine room of Ribadu's EFCC. Several internal re-organisation has also taken place within the period. Same also with ICPC.

As we speak, the EFCC is prosecuting pension thieves, fuel subsidy thieves, bank chief executives, politically exposed persons,etc. These are FACTS

Mr president, part of your job is to ensure that corrupt people are prosecuted and not to point accusing finger and walk away. For christ sake your government has all the power to prosecute anybody that is corrupt. saying that corrupt people are pointing accusing finger at you shows that you are either a weakling or corrupt, maybe you dont give a damn.

Why is he telling us this. So we should start dancing Azonto na..His he not the president of Nigeria. If those shouting corruption are usually the corrupt ones why are they not being prosecuted. To even think that someone is mentioning Buhari, Tinubu and El rufai. Then why are they still free,because we have incompetent people who were appointed by an incompetent leader to head efcc and icpc.This dude should stop talking and start acting.

This is getting really petty now.

.

Knowing how much the scourge of corruption accounts for the systematic decay seen right across Nigeria, anyone with a rudimentary understanding of the English language would surely find the President's remarks downright disparaging and also unconscionable, no?.

Totally correct - and this is how any sane person and exposed adult, genuinely deserving of being called an adult, will see issues.

How many times did GEJ cry corruption in 2011?

How many times has he since then vowed to eradicate corruption from Nigeria?

Any smart individual could see how GEJ has become so lax with punishing corrupt individuals in his government. I.e Bankole, IFeanyi, and that ugly woman with buggy eyes.
