Before nko, u beta keep ur mouth short @jonabomb ,u concede defeat because u lose and that is the only option u have....case close

am so sure people like you will come to realise later that the devil you know is better than the angel you don't know.

you don't realise the singular act of Jonathan.don't worry,if he had refused like most African leaders people like you would have been running helter skelter because of the crisis that would have occurred.
he simply would have directed police,army,to kill you all.

let's praise god he is not like buhari who will never accept results and will always want to make Nigeria ungovernable.

said buhari,said baboon and blood,said APC that will never call to concede defeat.
Baba which kind party be this.devil party.like pastor bakare said,APC is a church of Satan.

THIS IS THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH GEJ. HE IS TOO GENTLE. IF ONLY HE HAD ANNULLED THAT MARCH 28 ELECTION DUE TO OBVIOUS MALPRACTICES SO THAT THE BLOODSHED WHICH SOME PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE SPECIALIST IN WILL FLOW VERY WELL THEREAFTER HE GOES ON EXILE.
BY NOW PEOPLE WILL RESPECT THEMSELVES IN THIS COUNTRY.

SOME HATERS KUST WONT SEE ANY GOOD IN YOUR GOOD DEEDS BUT THEN TIME WILL TELL. BY THE TIME THE HIDDEN AGENDA FOR WHICH GMB HAS BEEN FIGHTING ALL THESE YEARS IS UNLEASHED UPON THE LAND. THESE SAME PEOPLE WILL NOT EVEN HAVE THE POWER TO TALK ANYHOW.

Sore loser...
Lost due to greed for power...
Lost due to incompetence in tackling insecurity, economic woes and weak leadership.
Lost to a supreme candidate
Lost to poor campaigns
Lost to cluelessness on issues relating to corruption and impunity.
Lost to numerical strength in opposition.
Lost for postponing the election by 6 weeks.
Lost due to poor campaign teams.
Lost due to spouse control and influence on your personhood over affairs of the country.

You know it never cease to amaze me when Jonathan tries to sell this "Mr. Nice" dummy to Nigerians.... granted, people from the East can buy it hook, line and sinker simply because they are blinded by Tribalism/Ethnicity..... but to try to sell this "snake oil" to others, is the hieght of effrontery on the part of Mr. Ebelete Jonathan.

You only need to catalogue his actions BEFORE and DURING the elections, both DIRECT and the ones he ordered INDIRECTLY, to know exactly the kind of man he is.

I repeat, Jonathan is such an EVIL PERSONA that even Satan The Devil is envious of him.

For example, when those Chibok girls were kidnapped, parents and villagers kept MONITORING their Kidnappers and where the girls were kept and for 14 good days, they keep informing Govt of the girls LOCATION (you know it is not easy to hide nearly 300 goats, not to mention grown up girls!
Jonathan was aware and from his WICKED HEART, he decided not to act. He knew if he quickly acted, we will recover the girls and the matter will come to a quick end but he wanted the matter to prolong itself so he can use it for "political capital" as we say.
Today, the girls have been abused, all raped, some pregannt, some dead, some gone mad and all scattered in small groups in about four different countries bordering Nigeria such that any meaningful recovery is impossible!
Even up to a day to the Presidential election, Mr. Jonathan was still lying to Nigerians that the girls would be recovered by the next day (election day) unfailingly so much so that he brought and painted an Aeroplane in the Gren-White-Green colour, to purpotedly bring the "recovered" girls to Abuja!

Now, as per conceding defeat, Mr. Jonathan is once again playing dumb and dumber with Nigerians.

Naturally, when you lose election, the ONLY sensible thing to do is to concede defeat. Doing so is "No Biggy".
But then, it was obvious, except to his "ethnically blind" supporters, that he will lose, is losing and has lost the election.

Jonathan conceded because he was AFRAID of the "other option".
He knew everyone, including the international community were just waiting for him to start trouble so they can beat some sense back into his head.

*Was it not Jonathan who was arming the Creek Militants, with as much as a warship and they were threatening to burn Nigeria down, if he lost? Did he for ONCE CAUTION them to STOP? No, rather, he edged them on.
*Was it not the same Jonathan who cam to Lagos to embrace, fund and instigate the OPC? Do you know how many people OPC, and other "Jonathan-funded" hoodlums killed in Lagos before and during the last elections? Did he for once caution them? No!

*Was it not Jonathan's wife, that fat, illiterate slob called Patience, who was engineering al the violence in Rivers State? Did Jonathan for once, call her to order? Again, No!

*Was it not Jonathan who used the military to intimidate his opponents, from citing an armored tank in front of Tinubu's house in Lagos, to harassing sitting Governors in Edo, Rivers, e.t.c?
*Was it not the same Jonathan that used the military to rig elections in #Ekitigate?

Everyone knows that the greatest problem we face in Nigeria, is Politicians who dont care not serve the electorate, for the simple reason that they know that winning elections in Nigeria is not a function of what vote the electorate casted. IT IS A FUNCTION OF PERFECTED RIGGING!
*Why then is it that it is the same Jonathan who is "self-praising" that he oversaw the conduct of the freest election in Nigeria, the same man who wanted to destroy what Prof Jega was doing, to ensure that no party can rig the election?
*Was it not Mr. Jonathan who wanted to abolish the use of PVC and Card readers at all cost?
*Was it not the same Jonathan who was scheming about how he can remove Jega and replace him with that Prof form Ekiti/Ondo so tha ttha one can jettison the use of Card Readers?

*Was it not the same jonathan who postponed the election by 6weeks so that he can secure more advantage to himself?
*Was it not the same Jonathan who was sharing Dollars... thereby corrupting our democracy the more?
*Even when his "bedroom appendage" was urging people to "Stone" the opposition, did Jonathan caution her at all? No!

Jonathan was very confident of winning the election but got the shocker of his life, which is the main reason for "conceding defeat his early"...when Jega insisted on using Card readers and calle on the outside world to prevail on Jonathan not to interfere in the electoral process.
The second and most important shocker for Jonathan was when America and the European Union WARNED HIM and THREATENED TO HOLD HIM RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY VIOLENCE DURING AND AFTER THE ELECTION, DUE TO HIS NEGATIVE INFLUENCE ON THE PROCESS.

THIS WAS A "RED CARD" TO JONATHAN.


He knew he lost the election.
He knew that if he did not concede defeat, there would be violence
He knew that if there was violence, America, the E.U and other world powers, will rapidly effect his arrest and detention
He knew there was a precedence, which he also participated-in, ....the Laurent Gbagbo of Ivory Coast scenario
He knew Obasanjo had drawn attention to all his schemings and "nothing he does, will be a surprise anymore.


He knew that he has ONLY TWO CHOICES:

[size=14pt]#1: To concede quickly and still hope that he could give himself a soft-landing (like he is trying to do now by running his mouth)...... or

#2: To refuse to concede, leading to violence and for him to end up in an "International Prison" like Gbagbo and his wife.[/size]


As someone who does not even have balls (it stakes balls to do what Gbagbo did, though stewpid), as a man who is SELFISH and cares more about his own personal safety, an educated man, Mr. Jonathan chose the path of SELF PRESERVATION by conceding quickly.

It has nothing to do with "love for Nigeria" or "wanting peace" or "being a gentleman" or any thing of the nature of VIRTUE
It was a straight-forward decision that any rational man will make: Self Preservation, trumps any other consideration of the "Rich".
Suicide bombers are usually the poor or the brain-washed........ not rich and rational humanbeing like Mr. Ebelete Jonathan!

Equalizer:
President Goodluck Jonathan has defended his decision to concede defeat to Muhammadu Buhari in the March 28 election, saying he was concerned about allowing his personal ambition scuttle a democratic system he helped nurtured, with the likely consequence of a “collective tragedy”.
Mr. Jonathan said Thursday that he needed to check his ambition, as the consequences of not doing so may have been dire not only for Nigeria, but Africa.

The president made the remarks during separate meetings with the new ambassadors of France, Senegal and Ethiopia. He was responding to commendations for his decision to promptly accept defeat after it became clear Mr. Buhari had won the polls.

“Democracy has to be nurtured to grow. Strong democratic institutions are the backbone and future of our democracy. They must be protected and nurtured. As for me, as a matter of principle, it is always the nation first,” Mr. Jonathan said.
“You need to have a nation before you can have an ambition. It should always be the nation first. You don’t have to scuttle national progress for personal ambition.

“Since I assumed duty, I have been involved in quelling political crisis in some African countries and I know what they passed through and what some are still going through. If you scuttle a system for personal ambition, it becomes a collective tragedy,’’ President Jonathan declared.
Mr. Jonathan urged world leaders and international institutions to give their fullest possible support to the incoming administration of Buhari.
He also called on all Nigerians to do their utmost best to help the incoming president succeed in leading the country to greater heights of accomplishment.

The president appealed for patience, understanding and cooperation, which, he said, Mr. Buhari will need to move the country forward to greater, peace, security and progress.

Speaking with the new French ambassador, Denis Guaer, President Jonathan urged France to extend the support and assistance it gave to his administration to Mr. Buhari’s government.
“President Francois Hollande was our guest in Nigeria during the celebration of Nigeria’s centenary. He has been very supportive of the country in the fight against terrorism. I expect that the same warmth and goodwill will be extended to the incoming government. I expect that France will continue to work with the new administration, especially on issues of terrorism.

“The United Nations has been supportive as well. Our troops, supported by regional forces, have done very well in fighting the terrorists in recent times. What we need now is support to help our people get back their lives,’’ he said.

The ambassadors commended President Jonathan for setting a record of humility, patriotism and courage in safeguarding the democratic process in Nigeria and Africa.

“Nigeria is not only an economic power in the world today, but also a great democratic example. And it is all by your effort, Mr. President. The last elections and your response was truly a great achievement and you will always be remembered for it,” the French ambassador told the President.

Mr. Guaer, the new Ambassador of Senegal, Baboucar Sambe, and the new Ambassador of Ethiopia, Samia Zekaria Gutu, who were at the Presidential Villa to present their letters of credence to President Jonathan, also assured him that they will do their best to strengthen relations between Nigeria and their countries during their tenure.

i like engaging only constructive views, i fear urs isn't. Did buhari give anybody a go ahead order to kill people? y didn't d FG arrest/charge him?. Listen here, i'm igbo so am more inclined to support GEJ, but his failure in office is so astonishing. Pretending to be nice alone doesn't make u a good president. Cheers

People just make unbelievable comments. Please give honour to whom honour is due. Let's face it Buhari would never have conceded if places were switched. I am not a fan of GEJ, but for this singular act, he has my love and admiration.
if places wer switched how? You mean if he clearly won and you pronounced Jonah the winner? why the hell would he concede that? Jonathan knew Nigerians are fed up with him, those guys read comments on social media too, truth be said JONATHAN had employed crooked means to win the election but it all failed, he never also expected to get 12 million votes, and in this Era sophisticated mobile phones, high speed Internet, social media, countless number of bloggers everywhere, he has done virtually everything within his power but still the voice of the majority prevailed, and in the end he chose to be wise conceding was not to save Nigerians of anarchy it was to save himself of the life of being moved court to court in a black Maria while facing ICC and corruption tribunal, so get it JONATHAN CHOSE TO BE WISE

As someone who does not even have balls (it stakes balls to do what Gbagbo did, though stewpid), as a man who is SELFISH and cares more about his own personal safety, an educated man, Mr. Jonathan chose the path of SELF PRESERVATION by conceding quickly.
It has nothing to do with "love for Nigeria" or "wanting peace" or "being a gentleman" or any thing of the nature of VIRTUE
It was a straight-forward decision that any rational man will make: Self Preservation, trumps any other consideration of the "Rich".
Suicide bombers are usually the poor or the brain-washed........ not rich and rational humanbeing like Mr. Ebelete Jonathan!
undecided wink

Enough of these bullshyte about Jonathan.
we know who he really is.

Well said. It has gotten so bad in Nigeria that we accept normal action as extra normal. Yes he is manly enough to concede defeat, first in this part of the world and we must give him credit for that but that doesn't mean he has done something extra ordinary. So what would he have done?. You lost election and concede defeat, Simple. It irritates me when I read comments like he deserves a Nobel Prize for this 'extra-ordinary gesture' and I keep asking such people whether they think Nobel Prize is like Nigeria National Awards that we dash out to all sorts of people. If conceding defeat after loosing a fair & free election is a yardstick for Nobel Prize, only God knows how many politicians across the world would have won the prise on a monthly basis
Oga Jona, you lost a free & fair election by about 3 million votes and you concede defeat, you have done the expected. Q.E.D
