Ofuks: Since 29th May, 2011 to date it seem all GEJ's fresh air policies have only succeeded in alienating him from the people who turned out enmasse to cast their votes for him. From his shady anti- corruption crusade down to his fuel subsidy shocker and his ineffective security systems the people had looked on with wonder. My people what could have happened to Oga Jonathan?

Kobojunkie:

Wow . . . . I cannot believe I am reading this from someone who is supposedly 18, or over. Jonathan did not know he'd become President when he went in to office with a man, that was sick and could croak at any time, as his Vice President.
. . . again . . . wow!

Michky: JONAH is simply a visionles guy who neva new he'd eva b president of dis country, and wen he got in, witout patriotic visions in mind, he allowd himself 2 b bought in2 oda countries' visions. & If u had bn abl 2 fit d puzzle together b4 nw, u'd av long noticd wat mess we've bn in, a lng tym ago. Let me cut d story short; d reason 4 his anti-people policies is simple. His major priority is satisfyin UN criteria, which majorly is: Checking over-population, because acordn 2 dem, d world wil soon b unabl 2 sustain itself in terms of availabl energy, food etc if d world's populatn continues 2 increas at dis alarmin rate. Plus am sure u'r very familiar wit dis term "global warming" huh? Accordin 2 d UN, if d world keeps warmin at dis rate, resultn 4rm fumes 4rm fossil fuel n d rest, do ur research on wat the effects wud b. K? So tel me. Do u remember d fuel price hike in Jan? & d electricity price hike in June? These 2 xamples shd mak it clear dat wats important is d greater good, which is survival of d human specie and 2 reduce global warmin, subsidy on fuel, electricity must no longer xist! If we pay d rite price 4 wat u use, u'd use les nd bla bla bla (acordin 2 UN. I av proff of dis). 4 nw, just no dat Jonah knows exactly wat he's doing. D only prob is dat he's nt doin it in our interest.

wow; i'm short of words. my dear (i dont use these 2 words too often) Kobojunkie, i must confess i've been folowing your posts, and to a large extent, i find them reasonable. i've almost fallen in love with you. but for the first time i have a clear divergence with your stance on this issue. it is going to be a herculean task to convince me that gej ever dreamt of being president of the federal republic of nigeria.

i think up till this day he can't imagine he is president. just take a close look at him; his mien, his utterances, actions, inactions, you'll understand what i mean.

This is a useless post. What has so happened during GEJ time that has not happened before. We have had coups, plane crashes, wars, tribal battles, religions wars, ete etc, before. Are you new in Nigeria. Did all these problems start today? You people have done all you can to undermine GEJ Presidency. You failed election and you vowed that GEJ would never have a peaceful government. Remember it is what you sow you will reap. Look back to 1960, it has been like this. We will never give our Head of State or President the chance to succeed. When Obasanjo come on board, some reactionary elements started Sharia to undermine the government. They write useless posts and paint unreal positions. Why do you not look at the positive things that have happened instead of dwelling on the negatives. UK had IRA rebels problems, US had and is till having terrorism threats from Alkada and others, Isreal had Palistinians problems up till now, Italy has mafiaso and drugs problems, Uganda has Northern Rebel problems, Zimbabwe had sit-titism and serious economic problems. Ghana once had serious economic and leadership problems, The list is endless. They all struggled and got out of the water and some are still struggling to solve the problems. There is no country in the world now that does not have one problem or the other, always caused by reactionary people of your ilks, who will never dwell on the positive but on the negative. Even if things are moving, they say they are not moving. As far as I am concerned, no past Nigerian head of state or Presidnet never had problems with die hard critics like you who put stumbling blocks on the way of success. The earlier you people repent, the better for this country. Otherwise, if even Jesus Christ comes to rule Nigeria, people like you will still see otherwise.

Kobojunkie:

Dude, stop!

I hate it when people refuse to think things through before posting.

The primary role of the Vice President, be it of a country or a Company, is to be ready to take control should the President become incapacitated, die, or resign. That is what a VP's primary role. Anyone who goes to that seat without ever thinking he/she could be president, better be an slowpoke of the highest level.

The senate President's seat comes next.

And people who believe that a person can make the decision to run for the post of VP of a country, without ever wondering what if he/she is called to become Acting President or President, are loonies.

We have all seen several times here in America, where capable candidates have lost the election on grounds that their choice of a VP was not competent enough. If you do not understand why the rejection, you probably need to research why McCain lost the last election to Obama.

Thank you!

Xaurel: I hate Gej but i think its cos he's from a minority group and has no powerful backup like the past leaders,thats why he's unstable. Previous leaders have people in high places,who are oweing them favours and assist in pulling strings to ensure that he,GEJ,doesnt prevail.he's still trying to find his footing, i guess. With time,GEJ,might gain grounds and become independent.but the problem is.....there's NO time

gregg2: Terrible how every shit against GEJ by any Tom, Dick and Harry
immediately make the homepage.

jaybee:
sorry kobo, you are taking this too far. i guess you are looking at an ideal arrangement, which in nigeria is just imaginary. wake up and face reality! this guy, gej, is still trying to reconcile himself with the position of president, which some of us believe he never imagined. that is why most times he forgets he is president. in this context, gej is very right; in an ideal democratic setting, i also doubt if he can be president of nigeria. every one knows how he came to power. even when he is convinced and constrained to act in official capacity as president, his body, mind and spirit behaves otherwise. this is nigerian politics.

you cant compare it with other democracies where there is succession planning and ascendancy.

remember yaradua, even when he felt he could no longer go on as president he did not give up the position; he wanted, the position as much as his health. in other climes late president yaradua would have relinquished power to take care of his health. recall the great Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz of cuba, when his health was failing, he gave up the leadership to take care of his health.

You are quite foolish in your unique way. Are you suppose to be comparing disasters with other countries? Are yoU not suppose to be comparing achievements? 5, 6, 7, years ago did we face all these challenges we are facing now? Even the few we were facing then were controlled and handled properly; what is GEJ doing to handle all these problems now? Instead he is renaming universities and taking decisions that make things harder for the masses. Please open your eyes and realize what is happening around you.

ckkris: No wonder PDP wins always. If these NL e-warriors could face AK47 during elections, and protect good candidates like Funsho Williams. If anyone here had vied to be Councillor ,and resist sharing of Local Govt allocations, and survived. Oh Nairaland Republic of Cyberspace, no bullets, no machetes, no kidnap. Only Jona will arrest IBB, probe Buhari's 2.8 billion NNPC money, and recover trillions of subsidy money from Otedollar,Tinubu, Folawiyo, Dantata, Dangote, Andy Uba, and many more dangerous like Bar Jimo, owner of Air Nigeria, they're too many in Ogboni, Freemason, and other secret societies. Are these nairalanders Nigerians? When they will instigate soldiers, like Abiola did, to overthrow the govt, NL e-warriors can do nothing. General Adekampe just tried, to use standard Commonwealth Military exam, to reduce the stranglehold of the born to rule over the Armed Forces, where only them qualified to be generals, only by birth. They courageously advertised in The Nation Newspaper, that they will make Nigeria uninternable. Naive e-warriors don't see how born to rule has systemically destroyed everything, to ensure that no one is able, by position, or by wealth like Abiola, to even question them, let alone dislodge them. They used the military to create enough local govts to ensure they control national assembly, and take most of Feederal Revenues. Lagos has 20 seats, how many has Kano? Do these NL e-warriors live in Nigeria? Or are they safe somewhere, waiting for who to change things, fast. But things are really changing, and must change democratically, legally. Jona is working very hard, and FDF will definitely win 2015.
