Jonathan, A Disaster To Nigeria –unongo by ogbongenet: 8:14am On Nov 10, 2014 |
A Second Republic Minister of Steel, Dr. Paul Unongo, has described President Goodluck Jonathan as a disaster to Nigeria. Unongo said it was immoral for the President to seek re-election when Boko Haram has taken over large chunks of Nigeria’s territory. He said, “He (Jonathan) is a complete disaster to Nigeria. He has made us look so ridiculous in the eyes of the world. Some little thing called Boko Haram that started like a joke is laying claim to large junk of Nigerian territories. “Huge cities have fallen into the hands of these people. You find them with the kind of equipment that is meant to be for the Nigeria army. “A tragedy is playing out in Nigeria and everybody is going about seemingly unconcerned and Jonathan is seeking re- election. I think something has happened to Nigeria. “It’s a tragedy. And it is a travesty of human dignity and justice for the person responsible for this, who is supposed to give us responsible leadership, instead of confronting the problem; he is busy fighting people and doing everything to retain the Presidency next year. I think it is obscene. I think it is immoral and I think it is sinful.” Unongo, who is the deputy chairman of the Northern Elders Forum, added that the any of the presidential aspirants from the North would perform far better than Jonathan as president. He said going by current trends, larger portion of the country would be taken over by Boko Haram if Jonathan continues as President. He said, “I think that some of us may be owing our existence to the ragtag thing called Boko Haram because what stops Boko Haram from coming all the way to Wukari or Gboko? I don’t see soldiers anywhere. This is what has happened to Nigeria. “Frankly speaking, in my own judgment, anyone of the presidential aspirants from the North would be a better President a thousand times than the current President.” On the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, who recently defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress, Unongo said the North was happy with him. He noted that given Tambuwal’s ability to get the support of both northern and southern lawmakers in the House, he would have received the support of some northern elders if he ran for presidency. “We, in the North, are quite happy with the performance of this young man (Tambuwal) at the federal legislature. He is a uniting force. He was able to get all his members to stand behind him. The way he ran the House, it was obvious he has some possibilities and capabilities. If he decides to run for the presidency, we will look at him very critically,” Unongo said. |

Unongo as a Northern Elder, what effort has he made to call his colleagues to bring peace to the region thru dialogues and calling their children bokoharam to order? All what they want is for GEJ to vacate the sit in Aso rock first before they can call the boys to order! Shame on you Unongo!! Is it too difficult to do 1 Like |

ZKOSOSO:What dialogue and agreement can you have with terrorists, and what is the result of Jonathan's negotiation and ceasefire with his Boko Haram friends? Only a competent and decisive political leadership can bring this shameful drifting to an end. To a discerning mind, the cowardice of Jonathan and some of his goons in the PDP are directly and indirectly aiding the B'Haram crisis for the following reasons and evil strategies: 1) Electoral advantage: Nobody in that region will vote Jonathan for his failure to protect their lives and property 2) To enrich themselves 3) To intimidate the political opposition 4) To reward loyal co-traitors, and 5) Of course, to increase their pool of the ever gullible ethno-religious bigots and sentimental TANoids which category you belong. 3 Likes |
