Mr. Liar!

How did we end up with this nincompoop? We must have offended the gods to get GEJ as a punishment for our offence.

Yes o, but the path to forgiveness of sin ls in admission of the offence true we made a grave error and are punished but we can make amends on #MarchForBuhari.

#VoteForBuhari for a President that will not say things/agree to any situation because in his words; "PDP delegates were there and I just want to win my primary election" and in another 'un-manly' statement he said that; "I don't want to join issues with Obasanjo that's why I agreed to say publicly that I'll not run for a second term."

This GEJonathan should not open his mouth again cos each time he does he just spews Cluelessness of the highest level.

"He said that he did not want to join issues with Obasanjo because the party members were there for primaries and “I just wanted to win my primaries”.- he deceived the pdp members including obj. It's the reason members of n-pdp defected to APC, its the reason obj tore his pdp membership. Jonathan lying since 1914

I am still wondering if that statement from Obasanjo influenced the outcome of the primaries?

If yes that means pdp delegates voted him as thier flagbearer based on a false claim.

He should have cleared the air there and then before the primaries not after benefiting from it turn around and disown the statement.

MR JONA U ARE A CONFIRMED LIAR. ote author=Omooba77 post=30972712]President Goodluck Jonathan on Saturday said that he was quoted out of context in the statement he made on running only a single term.

The president said this when he had an interactive session with Islamic Clerics from South West region at the State House, Marina, Lagos.

“I need to clarifiy this otherwise I do not need to talk about it. This matter continues to come up.”

He said those who have been playing the tape where it was shown that he had pledged to run only a single term had not been sincere.

The President said that what happened was that late President Umaru Yar’Adua came out with political reforms when he, Jonathan was the Vice president.

Jonathan said that he was the chairman of the interparty group of the committee set up by late Yar’adua to agree on the president’s proposal for a single tenure.

He said the statement he made in Addis Ababa was within the context of the proposal.

“I made that statement in Addis Ababa, when I addressed Nigerians. I made that statement after I had won elections.”

He said that he told the audience in Addis that that recommendation would move the country forward.

“I was advising Nigerians in Addis Ababa and I made mention of this issue of seven years of single tenure as being the best for the country.”

“I now added that if Nigerians will agree to run a single tenure of seven years I will not contest. That was the statement I made.”

He said that he still believed in that recommendation in order to prevent the waste of resources during re-election bids of incumbents.

Jonathan said the section of the broadcast which featured former president Obasanjo took place in 2011 during the PDP presidential primary.

He said that he did not want to join issues with Obasanjo because the party members were there for primaries and “I just wanted to win my primaries”.

He reaffirmed his earlier stand that if Nigerians accept his proposal of a single term of seven years, he would not re-contest.

“Those who are advertising on television that I said I was not going to contest a second tenure should play the whole tape.”

Jonathan said people were diminishing the office of the president because of politics.

He further said that even with the past campaign for the 2015 polls almost concluded, if Nigerians would accept that single tenure of seven years, he would not bother to contest the election.

He thanked the clerics for giving him the opportunity to clarify the statement and urged them to continue to pray for the unity and prosperity of the country,

Earlier the Chief Imam of Oriwu Central Mosque, Ikorodu,Llagos, Sheikh Oshoala Ajagbemokeferi, had urged the president to carry every Nigerian along in his administration.

The Imam pledged support for the programmes of the administration and urged the government to conduct a free, fair election to win the favour of God.

Allright....you should have told us in the first place.

Still....that's Nigerian politics.

Modified....

The trouble with Nigerian politics is the idea that development comes when your brother gets into office....and also the idea that it is your right to get into lawless activity if your brother does not get into office.

The last few months have really convinced me that whether Northerners or Southerners....Nigerians are all alike. We should stop pretending that the British forcefully untied us. No.....we got united because in the eyes of the Brits.....we were ALL ALIKE.

Just listen to Lawal Kaita in 2010....and Dokubo Asari in 2014....and tell me if there is any difference.

Nigeria must remain united...and must accept whoever wins in 2015. Because if we split....we would end up fighting each other for the same resources. And there will be no victor....all vanquished.

As I have said before....we do not deserve democracy. Because we ain't mature enough for it.
are u sayin wen Nigeria divide,d north east will b fightin rivers and bayelsa for d oil located in dia country.or biafra will go to war wit odua republic if igbos are deported from lagos?

Buhari said he will not contest again in 2011.

I don't think Buhari denied the fact that He said so. I don't know if Buhari said so or not but he did not deny that he said so. He only said his supporters made him contest because the clamored that he should contest.

Let's cultivate the habit of saying the truth regardless of opposition. Say the truth and put the devil to shame. You will know the truth and say/do the truth and d truth will set you free.
