BREAKING: Rubben Abati In Trouble With Mr President, Sack Imminent! by Sirniyeh(m): 1:18am On Dec 17, 2014 |
www.sunnewsonline.com/new/?p=95689 Presidential spokesman Reuben Abati is said to be in trouble with his boss, President Goodluck Jonathan, for goofs he made in the discharge of his duties. Sources close to the Villa confirmed to Global Village Extra that those in the president’s circle believe that Abati is lacking in how he interacts and deals with the press on behalf of his boss. “Abati is among the reasons why the president’s image has nosedived at home and abroad, he is said to be selfish and dismissive of other medium who are not in his caucus,” lamented a source who claimed anonymity for security reasons. Sources within Aso Rock Villa, Abuja, have reliably informed Global Village Extra that President Goodluck Jonathan, if he wins reelection next year, will relieve Special Adviser on Media, Reuben Abati following his mundane reports on activities involving the country’s number one citizen! Abati, who as a journalist, was reputed for his tough articles which kept government and its agencies on their toes, has since compromised his stance as soon as he joined Jonathan’s cabinet. “Abati is not competent to manage the image of a president who is facing a difficult reelection. “Recall that in 2011, he was in the media criticizing the president, that he seemed to be in his comfort zone. “I heard it was because of his incompetence that Okupe was brought in to handle a few things on behalf of the president”, the source added. Recently, he has been slammed for his ridiculous statements which were targeted at redeeming the image of the Federal Government. Instead of having the image repaired, Abati has further damaged the FG’s image with conflicting and untrue reports about the President’s achievement. Most notable among them was a case of him tweeting pictures of Kano State government projects as some of the achievements of the Goodluck Jonathan-led administration. He was condemned by observers and the Kano State government demanded an apology for the anomaly which it stated with facts, were the projects being executed by Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, governor of the state. And on Sunday, while speaking during an interview with the Voice of America, Abati continued with his vague statement about the president’s achievement when he said that despite the criticisms being directed at President Goodluck Jonathan, majority of Nigerians are aware that the Federal Government under his watch has performed creditably well. Many believe that Abati’s claims that majority of Nigerians are backing the president lack credible facts even as it negates the reality on ground in the country. His remarks on Jonathan’s achievement got many blood boiling on social media as many tagged Abati as the worse presidential spokesperson in Nigeria’s history. 4 Likes |

You can put wings on an elephant , he's not going to fly. No matter how you try to whitewash GEJ image, he is a big failure to Nigeria and Nigerians. Good riddance to him in May 2015 when a new President will take over. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Amala and pomo no dey do promo but e dey sell pass cowbell. The Federal Government is bad market on its own. When the late Prof. Dora Akunyili was the NAFDAC boss, did she hire any spin doctor to 'package her achievement' but we all felt it like the air we breathe. May her soul and the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. 11 Likes |

Hehehehe Isn't it obvious that the problem is not Abati even though he himself sacrificed his credibility for Jonathan. The proof is evident in the fact that Bastard Okupe who was brought in to help has not fared any better. If anything, Okupe has performed worse and the only thing he does best is to attack and attack with lies and deceits as well as comparing the confused Otuoke man with Jesus Christ. 8 Likes |

Most notable among them was a case of him tweeting pictures of Kano State government projects as some of the achievements of the Goodluck Jonathan-led administration. Stop condemning Abati publicly to make us believe that he's not doing what he's asked to do. The labour has since been divided within the Presidential Aides. Abati has been made the official liar in GEJ's Cabinet, while okupe has been the attack dog who makes reckless statements in defence of his master. He (Okupe) is also the official bastard (if APC survives a year, call me bastard) we know in Nigeria! 3 Likes |

From day one, Abati has lost the job becos he lost his dignity from d very day he took up d job. In as much as you cannot build something on nothing, one cannot brand a product that is not in existence. So, Abati has no business doing in Aso Rock. GEJ has no image, so he doesn't need any image-maker. He only needs shadow manager like Okupe to manage his shadow. Abati is just in Aso Rock for his share of National cake. 4 Likes |

Abati is not a good PR person, I think Lai mohammed shoud take over from him after Gej wins election because Lai has turned a rouge and fraudulent Tinubu into a saint. |

Reuben Abati cannot defend his boss like a politician, he can only defend him as a journalist. It is Okupe (President attack Dog) that can defend him as a politician. So i won't be suprised if Abati is relieved of his job: 1 Like |
