Less than 15 days to end 2013. What could you say about our president speech last year about his campaign promises?

President Goodluck Jonathan has asked Nigerians to expect the fulfillment of his campaign promises by in 2013.
The President said this on Thursday August 31st 2012 in Onitsha, Anambra State where he inaugurated a number of government and private sector projects.
“By next year 2013, most of our campaign promises will begin to manifest,” he told his audience at the premises of Intafact Beverages Limited, host of the $100m plant of Sabmiller International Breweries.

I will stop here as the promises are too much.
And please don’t forget I voted for Dr. Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan, I canvassed for him and I am sorry I compel everyone in my assembly to vote Goodluck Jonathan.
Can he still deliver as he PROMISED?

guy, you dey worry ooo. See as you get time dey copy all the promises wey bros JONA make since election.
I have gone through the list and saw many promises that he has fulfilled.
He has flagged off the construction of Zungery hydro, set up all the universities he promised each state, started the Almajiri school projects,
I don't know about the water dams but I sure do know that he fulfilled his promise to repair so many federal roads in Nigeria.
In power, he may not have achieved stable power but he has delivered on the NIPP Plants

Yes, GEj has fulfilled the Lagos-Kano railway. People are now passing through that route daily by rail. On a scale of 1-10, I rate him 7

Dis boko boys and hm opposition dm no gree am complete all of them. Bt he has completed up 2 90%. Kudos 2 him

I can agree to the fact that the women affirmative action of 35% has been fulfilled. Women are playing a very vital role in the running of this administration. It is not in doubt. The likes of Ngozi Iweala, Diezani Madukwe, Stella Oduah, Arunma Otteh, Sarah Ochekpe, etc

These are in the area of road construction that is taking place massively nationwide. AND INVESTING N3 BILLION NAIRA IN NOLLYWOOD TO BOOST THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY. Signing of the FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT INTO LAW THEREBY Making NIGERIANS AND THE NIGERIAN MEDIA ONE OF THE FREEST IN THE WORLD AND SALARY INCREASE OF 53% IN 2010 MAKING THE NIGERIAN WORKER QUITE COMFORTABLE. GIVING HANDSOME REWARD TOTHE SUPER EAGLES FOR WINNING THE AFRICAN CUP OF NATIONS AFTER 19 YEARS TO FURTHER CHALLENGE THE EAGLES TO ASPIRE HIGHER Airport reconstruction and remodeling taking place nationwide.

University education is now more readily accessible by Nigerians with TEN new universities approved and functional. In addition, billions of naira is being expended on primary and post primary education to assist the entire states of the federation. These are in the building of new primary and post primary schoolclassrooms and also for the acquisition of textbook which has been distributed to aid learning at this level. Almagiri school not excluded. EDUCATION TEN NEW FEDERAL UNIVERSITIES LOCATIONS----KATSINA, KANO(POLICE UNIVERSITY WUDIL), ZAMFARA, TARABA, GOMBE, YOBE, KOGI, EKITI,EBONYI AND BAYELSA STATES. ALMAGIRI SCHOOLS NUMBERS-----295+ LOCATION----NORTHERN NIGERIA The agricultural revolution currently on going in Nigeria is commendable with the attendant removal of corruption from the acquisition and distribution of fertilizers. Food security is the security of Nigeria. President Good luck Jonathan has today changed the bad attitude and mentality of most Nigerian politicians and voters. This he has done through the conduct of free and fair election all over the country.Edo and Ondo states are appetizers, there are more to come. His Presidency has stabilize the polity and foster integration, Progress in the image of Nigeria abroad and Progress in emergency management (Flood control). Today, the Boko Haram insurgency has been reduced to occasional ambush tactics thereby putting them on the back foot. Other forms of violentcrimes and criminality like kidnappings, armed robberies, pipeline vandalism and illegal bunkering are being tackled frontally and soon they will be history. Industrialization is gradually taking root thereby leading to the steady growth of the economy. DECLARED A STATE OF EMERGENCY IN BORNO, YOBE, AND ADAMAWA STATES WITHOUT TEMPERING WITH THE DEMOCRATIC STRUCTURES YET ACHIEVING THE DESIRED AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF SECURITY, PEACE, PROTECTION OF INNOCENT NIGERIANS, STABILITY AND ECONOMIC GROWTH OF THE REGION AND THE ENTIRE FEDERATION. THE DECLARATION MAKES GOODLUCK JONATHAN A LEADER, A DEMOCRAT AND A STATEMAN. PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN, THE BEST PRESIDENT NIGERIA HAS EVER HAD. SIGN M.A.U OF WHICH NO PRESIDENT EVER SIGN WITH ASUU.In the exact word of Tukur is our candidate.

I salute the success he has recorded in electricity sector so far.
We must understand that fixing the decay in that sector is not automatic. It will take time and money to put things together again. He started well by finishing the power projects that OBJ started and the privatisation programme is a nice one.
The new power companies may be facing difficulties at the moment but I have no doubt that things will improve.

Training of Snipers at the same place where Abacha trained his (Abacha's) killer squad.

Benin-Ore road is now good. It is now remaining the Sagamu section of the road. So I give GEJ a pass mark.

GEJ promised to revolutionize Agriculture in Nigeria. This may not have been achieved fully but there is significant progress as evidenced in increasing rice mills, silos and fertiliser distribution etc.I wish both the Minister of Agricuture and President Jonathan well in this regard.

Things that gej in his tenure in office: 1 supply of arms to boko boys 2 encourage corruption 3 creating new boko boys in Bayelsa after the borno based civilian JTF have bring end to boko haram 4 claiming five(5) tobe greater than 27 in rivers and 17 greater than 19 in governos forum 5 shut down nigerian universities for morethan five month. Let me pause

GEJ is indeed an achiever.Despite all the hurdles he is still waxing stronger,delievering on his promises,gaining more fans and shaming his holier than thou detractors alias false alarmist.
