President Goodluck Jonathan on
Wednesday during the Presidential
Media Chat refused to categorically
condemn some prominent Niger Delta
militants who threatened war should the
president be voted out of office in the
forthcoming elections.

Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, leader, Niger
Delta Peoples Volunteer Force; Victor
Ben Ebikabowei, aka, Boy Loaf; and
Government Ekpudomenowei, aka,
Tompolo had in January declared there
would be war if their kinsman, Mr.
Jonathan does not win the elections
during a meeting in Yenagoa, capital of
Bayelsa State.

Speaking Wednesday, the president said
provocative statements were usually
made by “actors” surrounding
politicians, adding that such statements
might not actually imply the intentions
of the politician contesting an election.
“You know the actors around you can
be carried away. These people (ex-
militants) made these statements …
based on ….you know when they have
been carried away,​”​ he said.​

He said provocative statements had
been made by his opponents, stressing
they too had threatened war.
Mr. Jonathan said he had been careful in
making statements, being a sitting
president.

“The issue of insecurity is beyond Boko
Haram,” adding that “Politicians are
instigating some young people to act in
ways not expected.”
​​He however ​​​said Nigeria will not go to
war.

“Nobody will go to war. Nigeria will
remain Nigeria​,” the president said.​ “My plea is that
without Nigeria, there will be no president.”
​​But Mr. Jonathan categorically refused to condemn the
​​​threats by Mr. Dokubo and the other

He is in support of it, Period! Who knows what plan they have drawn up should he (which he will) lose the elections!

this is very bad from Gej government ahhhh ahhhhh that means he's sponsoring d ex-millitant to caused chaos in this country. Gej will be defeated on March 28 by d special grace of God no doubt about that.

Has Buhari condemned the threat made by some northern muslim youths 2 AIT? Make we hear word abeg.. GEJ has said that statements made by the ex-militants are not his intentions, so what do u expect again?

His body language is a litmus proof that he supports the threat. I watched the media chat, he felt reluctant to answer the question and eventually diverted the question to another thing.

He also refused to answer the question about Chibok girls. What amazed me was the ridiculous response from PHd holder.

"How many times did you see Americans carrying placard, protesting because of the 9/11 incidence. So here people protest the Chibok issue. Well, I'm not God to assure their return but we are hopeful with all efforts put in place..." Quote Jonathan

I dont know where the war would be fought. Onshore or offshore?

Did AIT threaten to declare WAR on the Nigerian state if Buhari doesn't win elections?.


GEJ is a dubious president who protects criminals!



Asari, Tompolo, Bode George, Alams and Ibori are all convicted criminals and yet they are Jonathan's best friends.



#buhari for president

If Buhari na boko haram, Jona na militant

Although buhari condems violence buh Jona does not condem d act dat leads to violence

Going by what you are saying the threat made on AIT is justified, if people die there, they are not Nigerians right? Besides, u don't understand my post and you are quoting me

Not justifying anything just pointing the difference..


AIT engaged in smear campaigns & attacks on Buhari's person wt what happened and what didn't happen.

Especially after all parties agreed to only engage in issue-based campaigns.


In the Militant's case... They Threatened the North, South West and every nook and cranny wiith WAR if we don't vote to return GEJ as President which eventually means he loses the polls.


Do u get why I quoted your comment.

Which is better evil?

What do u people expect GEJ to do? He has clearly said he is not in support of the Nigrr militant threat, besides what about other threats made made by APC, did Buhari condem it?
Anyway kudos to my able president, GEJ till 2019
