unto deliverance from Owu.... abi

Yes ooo......serious Owu deliverance.

“Sometimes it appears not much (is done). Nigeria is a very big country. If you assess what we have done in a number of areas, we have done quite well and I believe that if Nigeria is linking up to where we were before and what we have done over these four years of government, they will want us to continue to make sure we at least complete some of the ongoing programmes".
- Pres. Jonathan (Thurs. 5th March 2015)

On why his reelection for second term may be more difficult than the first term election, he said: “Globally, it is more challenging for a president to secure a second term than the first tenure because people get disappointed when their expectations are not quickly met by those they voted for.”
- Pres. Jonathan (Thurs. 5th march 2015)

The reason why the president knows the Chibok girls are alive.......
“The good story is that they have not killed them because when terrorists kill, they display so that they use it to intimidate the people in the society. So, these girls are alive. And so, we will get the girls. Luckily, we are narrowing down the areas of their control. So we will get them.”

Are we not finished as a country under this man's leadership. If you perform well, people will notice. You don't need the Min. of Information toyell like he sent Maku all over the country. I hope our president's head is not as clueless as he is constantly making us to believe.
