President Goodluck Jonathan,
yesterday, in Sokoto described those
calling him enemy of the North, as liars
who have nothing to offer the region. The President also said his
administration had achieved a lot in
the area of transforming the
educational and agricultural sectors
across the Northern states. The President, who spoke during the
campaign rally in Sokoto State at
Shehu Kangiwa Square, said his
administration had achieved more for
the North than any other
administration led by former Presidents of Nigeria. His words: “When I came on board as
president, I established 14 new
universities, four were built in the
South while 10 were built in the North,
yet they keep telling you I hate the
North. If truly I hate the North and I do not want the children from the
North to be like me, will I take such
action?” the President asked. He went further: “Federal Government
has no business with basic primary
education because they are functions
of the state government, but I took it
upon myself to build Almajiri schools
here because we realised there is a higher percentage of children out of
school in the North than in the South.
So we intervened massively. Is that
hating the North? “In the area of agriculture, tell me of
any government that has supported
the North with several agricultural
equipment and with billions in cash
loans. Is that hating the North? If I
don’t like the North, will they benefit up to 70 per cent of agricultural
reforms we are doing?” he asked. He said those claiming that he was
against the North themselves really
had nothing to offer the region. His words: “Those who say I do not
like the North were also presidents in
the past, but what did they do for
the North? How many schools or
universities did they build in the North
and what did they do to ameliorate the problems in the agricultural
sector?” President Jonathan, however, called
on politicians in the state to shun the
act of violence at the forthcoming
elections. He said: “We must learn to exhibit the
spirit of sportsmanship in politics
because on my arrival this morning,
the Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammadu
Saadu Abubakar, drew my attention
to the unwarranted rivalry that existed among political parties in the
state and he condemned the
development in its entirety. Stressing further, he said: “I visited
Ogun State recently and the state
Governor, Ibikunle Amusun, who is of
the opposition party accommodated
me at the Governor’s Lodge, where
both of us passed the night without any rancour. I believe this is what
politics should be.” In their goodwill messages, former
Governor of Sokoto State, Alhaji
Attahiru Bafarawa and the Deputy
Governor of the state, Barrister
Mukhtar Shagari promised to deliver
the state 100 per cent to Jonathan at the forthcoming polls.

I don't care whether that Is true or not,all what I know Is just that our country needed change but not #10

can u send ur child or ward to almajiri school

...But your body language says otherwise!

it is a fabricated tory

The worst thing that could happen to a man is when he lies to himself and then believe those lies.

Mr Jonathan, that Fayose's ad was the last nail on the coffin of your chances to make inroad into the North. There are certain things they might not wanna tell you to your face because you are the president, but they will scream about it with their thumbs on the ballot papers on FeBuhari14!! Rest assured, it will be the greatest reprimand you'd ever receive for all your transgressions.

#can hardly wait.

those PDP supporters here calling the north all sort of names....don't they know that the south south and south east alone can't bring Jonah back....? it's about time they become mindful of their words...calling a particular groups will not add support for your candidate

GEJ is enemy of Nigeria and not just the North. GEJ has shown so much hatred for Rivers state and its people. GEj has also shown so much hatred for his own people, the Ijaws.

Sorry to say this Uncle Jons, yhu are not the enemy of the north but enemy of Nigerians

And u and ur gangs keep ridiculing them, calling them names terrorist and inciting their religion

LouisVanGaal:
can u send ur child or ward to almajiri school

yes, if am one

Hit Like For #GMB 2015 and Change For #GEJ 2015

You're not an enemy of the north but your foot soldiers think otherwise. If not,why should Fayose mock our former presidents from the northwest?

,What a hypocrite!!

[quote author=LouisVanGaal post=29953237][/quote] your brain s stuffed up ur anal cavity. So if am one of d poor almajiris in d north and someone built a school freely for me,tell me what stops me from going? Start making use of your brain and if it is not functional coz of d poo it contain, then use ur mind. Ewu zambia

If you're not an enemy of the north you should not have stood for and supported the "Islamization of Nigeria" mantra. That alone is proof that you're indeed an enemy of the north!.

Ewu ohia!

This Jonathan and his campaign handlers have no shred of political sagacity.

For example, that Fayose sponsored advert was an avenue for Jonathan and his PDP to show that they have some level of decency for the North in their senses. Jonathan should have stood on the stage, and strongly dissocisted himself from that PDP advert. He has no balls and his head is vacuous.

Rather, our clueless President has once again gone to the North to be asking ediotic rhetorical question and further maligning their past leaders by asking what schools or agricultural developments did they invest into their region? Has our foolish President forgotten the groundnut pyramid in the early 80's from the North?

Why is this President so disappointingly stewpeed?!

I though he was coming over to the north to continue his "Buhari does not know his phone number" campaign Thank God his handler advised him well if not him campaign for end prematurely.. Atleast for the next few days he will be in this part of the country we will have the chance to actually listen to his achievements and not Buhari this Buhari that..
