You simply pick them up as you grow up to become a refined and well rounded person.

When you are on top of the issues, advise are never contradictory. They are either right or wrong.

Even though I was hoping that a PhD holder would be a major upgrade over all the lackeys we've had before, I knew just after 2 weeks,that the country was in for another long trip.

...is all I'm saying. cool

I don't think they presume him to be the best..what is the point of fielding someone u know can't win u an election even if he is the best..They can pick a second best and surround him with the best and they will still achieve same result which is good governance..my opinion though

If they don't presume him to be their best candidate, they could have produced someone and act as you stated.

-it has been stated in certain quarters and even on papers that the general did win the last election.so to me,they assumed for them to hold aso rock in 2015,best to play the card that aced others.my humble opinion,sir

The internationals are buying it at less than N97pl but we the owners are buying it at that much. igbo lo makusi. all concened nigerians striked shouted, went on protest,injured, beating,killed yet u increased the price since then crude oil has been falling gradually in international market can u calculate how much u hav overcharged us since then? some countries who produce cars sell to us time 2 of how much they sell to their people maybe because their govt subsidise it to the minimum why cant we also the giant producer of petrol pay less 50% but u &ur cabal forced us into ur evil wish. aja lo ma je oku e. thoso advisers are the ones that will destroy u.

Why won't you get contradictory advice when you are surrounded by less intelligent dudes.

Fellow Nigerians, its high time we vote "stealing is not corruption" out of office. Other nations are developing while we are retrogressing as a nation. The likes of Okonjo Iweala keeps telling us we are growing in paper while an average Nigerian doesn't feel the effect of the growth on his or her life. Do you all want us to continue on this same path??

Vote GMB/OSIBANJO

NB:I don't belong to any political party, I just want Nigeria to try another political party and see if we would get it right.

An intelligent HEAD BOY of a secondary school is better than GEJ as Nigeria president. President Jonathan has shown and demostrated to the world how CLUELESS he is when it comes to governing. Nigeria can be great again if we vote wisely comes 2015.
Change is possible
Vote BUHARI for a GREAT Nigeria.
stop blaming GEJ! He is just trying to be a patriotic Nigeria by telling everybody who cares to know that he (GEJ) is not fit to be Nigeria president.Must you abuse him by telling us indirectly that he is not competent ,lack decision making skills.please wise up

People that think wisdom just comes like that never heard about King Solomon. The wisdom of man is light years away from the foolishness of God. GEJ keeps hanging himself in front of Nigerians in a bid to show he is a good man. MR Presidio, abeg no do again, Nigerians will only keep castigating you. For those that think ruling a country is primary school homework, abeg bring all your result from primary to now, if you are married and have a job, abeg show make we check and critique. If you have 85% we will vote for you as next president

People are fond of always misinterpreting what president GEJ says. That doesn't sound like complain. It's a church program and he is only asking for prayers to always make the right decisions.
Like we misinterpret "stealing is not corruption"..I guess we can safely say he is always confusing us with his statement

Thats the words of someone with no ideology or principle as well as lack of understanding for his position.

An effective President will have set three main checks e.g does this suggestion protect lives and property? does this idea bring about unity or divide.

Mr. President we cant be teaching you how to run your government, maybe its time you take class from APC on how to select best ideas among the lot

This particular fisherman is lost at sea.
When you are on top of the issues, advise are never contradictory.
They are either right or wrong.
When those issues are murky or complicated, you methodologically break them into little pieces to understand those problems.
When someone consistently gives the wrong advise, he should be shown the door.
For instance , nobody needs an incompetent iweala to bamboozle them with Neo-liberal economic PR speak to know that a substantial chunk of the country's income and budget should have been going towards increasing and improving power infrastructure.
Also, you should know something Is not right when your so-called minister of the economy is presenting a budget which is built on crude oil selling for $65 a barrel on a day when the price is 60 a barrel in the market. What sort of budgeting is this?
You do not need those advise to know that dangote is making so much money that he does not need a corrupt waiver from iweala.
Only common sense is needed to know that you do not turn your country into a dumping ground for rubbish products from other countries.
With the likes of anenih, omokri , okupe, wike,orurebe, uba, iweala ,bode George, buruji , Marilyn Ogar,Edwin Clarke, abati in his inner circle, what you get is the JAPANjantis of cluelessness in aso Rock.
The first anomaly afflicting this man starts from his bedroom. The groupies who hang around her alone, are enough to crash the presidency of the most competent person on the planet.
I have never voted for anyone in this country but for the first,I am going to do so just to see the back of him and her.
Even though like other,I was hoping l that a PhD holder would be a major upgrade over all the lackeys we've had before, but I knew just after 2 weeks,that the country was in for another long trip.
Guess why?
His wife.( Obasanjo had that spousal problem as well but her negative impact on his presidency were not apparent unless you are sensitive and capable of building the big picture out of little information . But the hanger-on around her dogged his presidency even after she had left the scene.
One word to describe it.
VANITY.
Within 2 week of being elected, patience had already organised an owambe fashion parade at obudu cattle ranch
THEY CALLED IT " A SYMPOSIUM TO EDUCATE OTHER FIRST LADIES ON ETIQUETTE "
Wife of governors, minister etc.
In actual fact, it was simply an egomaniachical ploy to tell them that there is a new unelected Mary antoinette in town.
I was like,mennnnnn.........
A couple of weeks later,I read in the financial times that the excess crude account had been depleted from 22 billion to 2 billion with nothing to show for it.( you can see a few things the states did with the money but you cannot point to anything Jonathan did with the Jonathan did with the FG's $11 billion share.)



Good and intelligent submission. What are the qualities of a good leader.( 1)COMPETENCE (2)CAPACITY and (3)CHARACTER. Nigerians can now evaluate if the current leadership in the country had those attributes.

unfortunately you are wrong here. a candidate is not presented because he/she is the best; but because he/she scored the highest votes at the primary elections. political parties always have credible and quality members to occupy any and all political positions in the land. so don't attempt to misinform our gullible and simple readers here.
Re: I Get Contradictory Advice On National Issues, Says Jonathan by myhero4eva: 10:46am On Dec 19, 2014
I cnt totally dispute or disagree wit wat d president said, bt one tin i kn is dat most of his advicers are selfish and criminalistic. They either advice him 4 their own interest or dat of their frnds/connivances on national issues. But we all v conscience, we kn wat is rit or ethical and wat is wrong or unethical. So he has d rit, power, privilage and d peoples support to stand firm and do d rit tin by taking d rit decisions. Sm1 stole 4rm public coffer and is found guilty, u gave her/him a new portfolio instead of sack and capital purnishment...u stil say u r a crusader against corruptn...u deceive urself nt d people. When u change, ur government wil change.

.quote author=sunkuns003 post=29007730]President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday said for every issue he had to take a decision on, multiple suggestions that were most times contradictory, were made available to him.

He said it was therefore important for Nigerians to continue to pray to God to give him wisdom to take the right decisions that would not bring suffering to the people.

Jonathan spoke at the 2014 Christmas Carol organised by the Aso Villa Chapel at the old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

While saying that nobody placed oneself in a position of authority without the consent of God, he expressed the belief that God, who chose him, would see him through. if the president is complaining to us ,den who do we complain to?

The President said, “We pray that God should give those of us who are in charge the grace to do things with the fear of God. If we begin to do what is right in our own little way, this nation will survive.

“God knows why we are here. Nobody will place himself in any position without God. So God that gives all of us the opportunity will see us through.

“For me your servant today, I will continue to request for your prayers that God should give me the wisdom to do what is right in His sight.

“Because it is quite challenging for a leader. For every subject that you want to take a decision, you will have multiple suggestions, some contradictory, some to the left, some to the right, some to the centre. But you must take a decision.

“It is only God that can guide you to take the rightful decision that will not bring suffering to your people.

“We will try our best and we will continue to do our best. We promise that any opportunity given to us, we will use it to serve mankind.”
