I am not surprised, IBB doesnt wanna ome back to Aso Rock. He didnt cntest against OBJ. He pulled out so Yaradua could pick the ticket. Now seeing the WIN-WIN situations (it is becoming evident that GEJ will pick the PDP ticket, however should the north succeed with their ethnic/zoning tactics, GEJ would be forced to join ACN, there, Ribadu would be urged to step down for his boss, GBAM!) for GEJ, IBB wanna joint GEJ's train. This is pure and good tactics from and for him.

This what I call politics of one leg in, one leg out. the politics of never put all your egg in one basket

Being quiet is not the same as being weak and dumb dumb. When you're forced to contest for any position, when you're forced to travel to Ibadan to celebrate Akala's 60th birthday, when you're forced to ban Green eagles before clearly understanding what was on the ground, and you're forced to reverse most of your final decision, it clearly means you're not a leader.

Nigeria needs a leader that has the capability to express himself or herself effectively. Uncle Jo and his wife need to move back home (down south), where nobody cares about how they handle themselves.

There is a leader, a follower and a joker.
I do not know where to place uncle Jo and his estrange wife, but something is certain, uncle Jo isn't a leader Nigeria needs at this point.

I think there is a very "THIN LINE" between being a "coward" and being "flexible"!

Granted, Uncle GEJ has "reversed" himself a couple of times BUT lets look at it from another angle:

What would you have made of him if, in all those cases of reversal that you mentioned, he has been RIGID and failed to reverse himself in the light of  "NEW FACTS"? silly and Silly, right?  

Again, lets look at his "past antecedents".

Look at events that played-out before he became substantive President.
Do you remember for example, how that "Soja" stood behind the empty "Presidential Seat" (where GEJ was supposed to sit!), with a Rifle, openly displayed? Remember what that "unspoken" message was?

I think in the light of how he ascended the throne, he needs to be so wary as to be likened to "A CAT"!

Cats appear docile, lazy and even afraid but you only need to corner them to know how "wickedly brave and dangerous" they are!  

In summary, he is operating from a "weak position". He cannot afford any "gra-gra" until he is really sure who he's real enemies are, who the "snakes' are (especially in the Nigeria Armed Forces), who the "players" are and those he must do "Baba/Ranka dede/Onyinshi" to!  

But at times, l think we are too eager to condemn these Jonathan and we seem to be underestimating his capabilities!


Truly, he must have read two books: THE ART OF WAR!  and THE PRINCE (Machiavelli)

BTW: what is that gist about "his estranged wife" in that your post?
Dont estrange any wife now, abegi!

Don't read too much meaning to this, it's just politics as usual. Are they not all members of PDP?
Remember the last Democratic presidential primaries in the US? Obama and Clinton fought to the bitter end. However, when she realised he has the numbers, she did not only join forces with him, she advised her supporters to swing behind Obama.
IBB and his supporters may have realised the Jonathan/Sambo ticket is more realistic hence the change of heart.
It only a fool who will want to team up with a loser.

so why did he contest? pray tell please

POLITICS AND POLITHIEFIANS, na wa ooo,

if u can't beat dem u join dem

ok, u re' all welcome to my party

"Russian" spies in "US" camp  :

Very soon, IBB himself will become Director General, GEJ Campaign Organization., lol

I hope dat no one will be so naive to believe this story.the other day,it was some members of goodluck campaign decamping to the atiku group.now its d other way round.obviously,these people are just paid noisemakers

the NOligarky are actually running out of ideas and persons. the end of that negative domination is at sight.

Big B1:

At this point, the last thing Nigeria needs is a weak and a dumb dumb leader.

If you truly know uncle Jo, you'll clearly understand why Nigeria can not afford to have him as our leader. Making decision in general isn't compatible with Uncle Goodluck.
His wife is even tougher.

Furthermore, if there is anything promising about Uncle Jo, I think he should have used the few months @ the Aso Rock to send message or redefine himself to the great people of Nigeria.
But it is what it is,you just don't ask a rat to give birth to a lion. The last time I checked, it was impossible and it still is.

I presume you have your own selfish motives for condeming GEJ,

GEJ is not that weak ooh, , just watch out if he losses the election.

atiku should go and start preparing for 2072 elections.

This is a bait thrown by the evil geneous to catch his prey.

With or without IBB's support for Goodluck, victory is still for him, what are they upto?

it's no news to me i aint surprised it's typical 4 Naija politicians 2 be hopin from one political bed to anoda they are prostitutes

That a good news of GEJ, am sure atiku should know he's on his own by now

jonathan should beware

Let the fun begin

The divine power behind the success of GEJ is even beyond his comprehension, how much less his opposition.The faster they realize this fact and try to make amends and right their wrongs, the better for them, otherwise they they shall see the vital signs from divine wisdom personally to make them reconsider their stands. IBB is wise after all.
