Superb article. A very long yet 'must read' article that presents a powerfully comprehensive summary of how and why things are what they are today. An article that does justice to its title of presenting "hard facts" over the sentiments that has being the choice 'tool' of operation for all those connected to this gale of rancid fumes ludicrously and impertinently dubbed "fresh air". http://247ureports.com/the-jonathan-disaster-hard-facts-vs-sentiments-by-frisky-larr/ The Jonathan Disaster: Hard Facts vs. Sentiments – By Frisky Larr 5 Likes |

Akanbi_edu: Make E scatter everything abeg. Man mi, no one is "scattering" anything. As the article concludes, issues will end with GEJ eating humble pie. Nigeria is bigger than him and a few militants/charlatans/jobbers/hirelings/sabre rattlers/mercenaries and ethnic jingoists he is enriching 'under the table'. The article even covers your observation specifically and that is why it is such a comprehensive submission. They will all 'disfarahon' when the real action begins. Afterall, where were they when Turai was bullying GEJ and, by extension, those currently making all the treats on his behalf? His strategies were planned by people who have no single power base of any sort but hinged their pleas on the deterrent effect of the risk of Niger Delta insurgency replacing Boko Haram. Now the President is standing out Unclad in the political wilderness protected by a roadside barking dog called Asari Dokubo and a voluble feasting associate adopted as a makeshift godfather who has no political base whatsoever – Edwin Clark. 1 Like |

Jonathan could have pushed this agenda as well if he had – for instance – groomed a credible Easterner as a successor had he allowed decorum to take center stage and kept his promise of just one term. But poor achievements compounded by a very bad personal image nourished by poor television outings with gaffe after gaffe has endowed President Jonathan with the image of the world’s most unintelligent President that major world leaders avoid.nothing could be truer than this... I actually wouldn't have minded an Igbo president so fr he could deliver. But as it stands, he has no hope of redeeming our his image. It's also a pity about the world leaders avoiding him part is also true. What a dense president |

Of course, I may be accused of being one of GEJ's apologists, but I patiently read thru this because I wanted to see how the writer wanted to convince his readers with concrete facts and figures that GEJ has been a woeful disappointment in this his tenure, but alas, I was disappointed. He extrapolated every claim in his writer, appealing to that same sentiment he's trying to write against. No hard facts, only sentiments. It's foolish of me to say that GEJ has transformed all of Nigeria to a model modern society. No. But I'd be unfair if I say I've not personally been experiencing improvements in electric power supply at both home and office, that the Federal highways around my regular travel routes (PH, ABA, Imo, Delta, Edo, Lagos, Anambra, Bayelsa, etc) have not improved (except, for those who know it, the hellish Port Harcourt to Obigbo__Aba roda). We can hardly deny the improvements in the aviation (yes, they may not be the best, but if Femi Fani-Kayode had not left his duties as aviation minister to pursue ukwu nwanyi Owerri, we'd had some already existing stone to build on). We cant disputes the efforts of both Agric and Trades ministers. And indeed a few other sectors. As for the noise about booting GEJ out, don't bother. It's just by a pocket size loud mouthed minority. If GEJ has performed dismally and has wholly lost public approval, no need for the call for him to jettison his 2nd term ambition. If he's a woe then opposition should rather hope he's fielded by the PDP. 4 Likes |

No doubt, they too are now wondering why the rest of the south hardly seems to share in this emotional but logical consideration. After all, there has been a collective marginalization of the south by the north since independence. Yet there is a silent minority even amongst the President’s regional siblings who consider the President a disappointment to the interest of the region itself. It is not lost on keen observers how much looting a Niger Delta development project has resulted in. The sanctification and ‘untouchable’ status of militants-turn-millionaires has been observed with dismay. The uncontrolled operation of illegal refineries and stealing of crude oil by privileged powers with the President turning a blind eye is a major talk-of-the-town! Failure of a President from the SS |

Gbawe: The writer showed great understanding of the situation. Like I argued with friends when I was trying to convince them not to support Jonathan. A major point I gave them, which many did not appreciate at the time, was the fact that Jonathan never built a political structure in his political career, in addition to the fact that he is a DULL individual, and would pose a serious threat to Nigeria's national security. People like that can not comprehend what it takes to build a nation. To make matters worse, he turned his government to Ijaw/Igbo government, only appeasing the northerners once in a while. He is been president for three years but has managed to have loyalists only in his corner of Nigeria. Even Ameachi, a governor, has better network of friends across geopolitical zones. What manner of a president? Even if he is preparing for anything to win 2015, Nigerians should remain resolute in their determination to get him out of the office. With him, there is no peace, it can't get worse without him. 5 Likes |

He extrapolated every claim in his writer, appealing to that same sentiment he's trying to write against. No hard facts, only sentiments. And what is the big deal in all you listed there? Abacha did same, IBB did same, Shagari too renovated roads and OBJ did his too. Most of the things you see in Abuja which Jona enjoys today were built by these people. However, in economics we talk of level of significance. It is insignificant by a large extent and that is the issue. Our population is growing daily, how are we developing to meet this growing population? Any eediot can award contracts to renovate an airport terminal, just the way I renovate my house, just the way Zenith bank built its head office building. What is the big deal in that? These are mere social and economic overheads. Oil prices have risen by over 100% since he took over, what benefit? He has raised taxes on gasoline, raised tariff on electricity, where is the corresponding benefit to the consumer? Our young people cannot get jobs, the unemployment figures continue to worsen, our human development index is comparable to Chad and Haiti, we remain less than competitive in the global race. All these jobless laptop rats in cyberspace should be somewhere doing something reasonable. For where, they have stolen their future and turned them to liars like themselves. I say kick them out that is the best thing you can do for this country. They have no plans other than a few deceitful projects whilst leaving the main issues unattended to. The man has no honour, even if you give him 1000 years he will still be a failure. 6 Likes |

Let's be factual.GEJ is the best president/Head of state Nigeria has ever had since inceptions.he's achieved far more than his predecessors.The problem now is,he is the most criticised,he is working,but now the eyes of Nigerians are opened widely and their demands are very high.once unable to deliver them,he falls prey to their boxing gloves. Times past,everyone was stay at home change will come one day,but this has changed.everyone is now following the trend of things and demanding accountability and transparency of everything going on as per the nations development. But,Nigerians have grown past the stage of do this to 'Kowaje'-that is,no development can be done to woo us this time.Nigerians have seen better and demand better,That's where Jonathan hasn't been able to deliver,we no longer want things working,we want them working fully well to the envy of the world 1 Like |
