TechWalker007:

But you support Buhari?

If you give me Jonathan and Buhari, I will definitely vote Buhari. If you give me Buhari and Tambuwal, then it will be difficult but I'll vote Tambuwal for youthfulness. That's the truth with any neutral mind that wants the progress of Nigeria.

Ngwakwe: I already know about your opinion on Rochas then and now but wanted you to see this issue under discussion as political statement (assuming the statement is correctly interpreted) and not a religious script on which morality and integrity is adjudged


If you've ever been scammed before, you'll understand the reason not to put further trust in someone that has already changed statement once or twice. He'll keep changing statements and you'll keep falling because of sentiments.

Has he now said he will contest in 2015?

Why are you all agitated? Wait until the man speaks!

I have said on this channel before, I do not think GEJ will contest in 2015.

sluggers: Jonathan cannot be trusted. He needs to admit he said this before he gains the trust of Nigerians again. There is nothing wrong contesting for second term but you should fulfill your promises and let the country knows if you change your mind. Simple as ABC........


I love your post and as you rightly put it; simple as ABC smiley

duni04: I'm not a GEJ adherent but this idea of digging up old newspaper clippings to discredit somebody is just lame. The guy was answering questions from reporters, and not testifying before a court or the senate. You can't equate someone changing his mind about his political ambitions to treachery or dishonesty, its just lame. While campaigning for president, George W. Bush Snr famously promised not to increase taxes and did immediately he got in. Obama promised to close the guantanemo bay while campaigning in 2008, its still open today. As long as Jonathan's statement was not made before a court of law or the senate, like in the case of Bill Clinton who lied to a US grand jury about his affair with Monica lewinsky, nobody can accuse Jonathan of anything. He's a human being, he has the right to change his mind as he deems fit.

I actually want GEJ to contest for PDP then I can go viral on his dishonest and deceitful behaviour and his lack of honor and integrity.

What I just read from the article itself is TOTALLY DIFFERENT from the headline/topic. Is this a new low and total desperation on the side of the opposition that they've now resorted to posting crap just tp stop GEJ? pity.
Re: I‘ll Not Contest 2015 Election – Jonathan by Ngwakwe: 10:34am On Dec 20, 2013
This your comment is diversionary and meaningless, we are not taking of business, moral, religious or civil right issues but political statement which happened to be at odd with our constitution.

The bottom line and conclusion of this argument is your personal grudge with GEJ and direct or indirect interest.

Why was your trumpet silenced in the case of Fashola, Adams and now Buhari. All these people were never discredited with this very statement and why GEJ?

Keep the grudge, it's your business and never disturb us with your obsession against GEJ.

This mean you would support Buhari even after he said he won't present himself again.

Why the fuse about GEJ contesting then?

You of course, for posting/soaking in an old article just to discredit the President by all means necessary (a very lame move, btw). If that ain't desperation, then I dont know what is.

Don't mind that enemy of Nigeria! He would see nothing wrong if Buhari contest after saying "he will never present himself for election" which is a stronger declaration than what GEJ probably said, yet he attempts to discredit GEJ for less.

Yet they claim Nigerians don't want GEJ, why will they not allow the same Nigerians vote him out? why will they ask him not to contest?

In fact APC should be happy GEJ is contesting since they want to make us believe he is corrupt and inept.
Why are they afraid a "corrupt and inept" man is contesting?

Mehn see the kind of support Jonathan got on this thread, this was a great miscalculation from Mukinotu and other anti-GEJ / APC bandits.
The more they attack him, the more support he gets from the people, these scoundrels just don't get it!

And one APC MOD threatened Sincere9gerian for doing the same thing. Now an anti-GEJ thread is quickly moved to front page.
While the thread about Sanusi's goof and apology to NOI is still in the back line.

Jonathan said this while interacting with Nigerians mainly diplomats working in the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, UNECA, and the African Union, AU, in Addis-Ababa. While fielding questions from those present at the interactive session on whether Nigerians abroad will vote, Jonathan said: “I would have loved that the Nigerians in Diaspora vote this year but to be frank with you, that is going to be difficult now. Presently, the law does not allow the voting outside Nigeria and so this year Nigerians in Diaspora will not vote but I will work towards it by 2015 even though I will not be running for election.”

I don't think I've seen APC kick against Jonathan contesting. In fact most critics demand for free and fair election . It is more of a PDP affair but Jonathan however told the Nigerian populace that he would not contest in 2015 but will give us a credible election. I think most of the PDP Governors left because Tukur refused to guarantee a free and fair Presidential primaries in PDP. I'm sure if Tukur was removed and a free and fair primaries guaranteed, the Governors would have stayed back.

.......have you heard this before "Think before you talk", that's another quality of a worthy leader, he has no ambition to run beyond 2015 and he's gonna make sure the election is free and fair, but this is 2013, he has put the interest of the electorate aside and engage himself in pursuit of what he doesn't have ambition to do.....fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, Nigerians knows better now and we shall all be waiting for him at the poll in 2015.
