Spirit of Okija:

Someone just disrespected an entire Country and you salute him?!

You are worse than an infidel..

afam4eva: It's unfortunate that out of all the brians we have in Nigeria, we had to settle for less(GEJ). If an American president had made 30% of the atrocious comments that Jonthan made, he would have been impeached by now.

Spirit of Okija:

Whats the population of Ghana?!

How much does it cost to build roads in Ghana?!

How many megawatts of electricity does Ghana produce?!

Apart from Accra and maybe Kumasi, where else in Ghana is developed?!

On what ratio do you compare Ghana to Nigeria as Nigeria is over 3 time the land mass and population of Ghana..

EbonyBlond: That man's (i can't call him a prof cos he didn't behave as one) criticism is in no way constructive. Calling the president a lunatic and of unsound mind is pure mudslinging. I would have had nothing against him if he criticised in a way befittin a prof.

aussyroyal: This Ghana must Go prof looks like a clown in that pix, He is the one that needs his head examined. How dare he criticise a country's president that he is not even a citizen of,cheap propaganda! Mtchw

Spirit of Okija:

As I patiently read through the posts here, I couldnt help but shed some tears for Nigerians.. Look at a bloody Ghanaian disrespecting our President, talking about issues that he barely knows anything about.. And trust Nigerians, they immediately follow a vagabond Ghanaian to disrespect our own..

GEJ may not be the most inspiring and charismatic leader, but I'll be damned if a Ghanaian should dare call him out.. I will rather die in a useless Nigeria than in Ghana.

I was going to type a similar response but I thank God that I am not the only Nigerian who still has some Pride in the motherland..

This thread is an insult to Nigerians by a lesser being from a lesser Country..

I have no problems with Nigerians disrespecting their President but not outsiders and especially not Ghanaians.. A country that has only 1 Airport in Accra that is poorly maintained..

All those Nigerian Nairalanders who liked the lead post of this thread should be ashamed of themselves..

Long Live Nigeria.. Long Live Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.. Long Live Okija Juju

Next time you're making a citation, choose a good reference. Daniel is not one and definitely not Amosun.

Mekusnwa: Where did they go to pick this character from? There's no end to what theses Gej haters will not do to get at him. Suddenly, they hve gone to generate a Ghanian professor to come and give a disjointed analyses of that interesting Media chat. Who interviewed this professor? Who made him world's foremost economist? I will not be surprised if this man was cloned by SAHARAREPORTERS or Kobojunkie to lend credibility to their falsehood. Let me assume that the man exist and face the issues raised.
1. He acted in ignorance when he said the president didn't declare his assets. The president indeed declared his assets but it was not made public. Even if you doubt it, the assets declaration that he did as Vp under Yaradua still subsists as he has not left office since then. So why the noise over assets declaration?
2. It is an insult on the sensibilities of Nigerians for the so called Ayitteh to label our President as insane and with unsound mind. Who adjudged Jonathan as having unsound mind? Did Ayitteh evaluate a medical report to that effect? How did he arrive at this weighty derogatory statement against a PHD holder? Who is Ayitteh to tell us we voted an insane President? please there must be an end to useless propaganda.
3. The so called Ayitteh questioned why GEJ has not fixed Maidugri airport for his usage. I want to ask, has Ghana even fixed the airport at Accra talkless of the one in hinterland? Is it Not the airport where a cargo aircraft crashed due to water logged runway. Meanwhile, Gej is carrying out massive reconstruction of airports across the country. He is doing in less than one year what many of his predecessors could not do all thru their tenure. Go to Abuja airport, the domestic wing has been closed down for intensive renovation. New car parks are being built. At the international wing, the runways are being built and the entire airport infrastructure is being rebuilt. Similar projects are going on simultaneously in Enugu, Lagos, etc
4. He said GEJ's Agric revolution is only restricted to distribution of palm seedlings. What an affront on truth. Even a toddler in Nigeria has come to know about the cassava revolution and fertilizer distribution reforms scheme.
5. Thankfully, the fake prof accepted the massive construction of rail lines across the country but only faulted the projects on account of what he described as non inclusion of Nigerians in the contract. Who told him? And since when has a Ghanian assumed the role of our local content enforcement officer?
6. He ended up betraying his true identity as an interested party when he said the president needed to consult the university authority and students body before renaming Unilag. What a joke!

God's Mercy:
Do unto others as you want others do unto you. As an African, we have respect for our leaders and elders. Constructive criticism is different from insult. Hating and insulting the President will not put food on your table. It'll only give you heart attack. Those insulting the President are either not Africans or have no good home training. Maybe have internal hatred who will never see anything good in him. Oh God pls protect and guide President Goodluck Jonathan in Jesus name.

Guy you are b.l.o.o.d.y m.o.t.h.e.r.Zap.i.n.g fool. A man is telling the truth and you i.d.i.o.t.i.c sycophant are defending the f.o.o.l we call our president. I hate this country!

iv4fb:

@smoothcriminal, I hope u know that 'silence' was the answer u got from this forum, everybody ignored u, u just didn't make any sense, Ghana of 27million people (if I'm right) comparing herself with 170 million people; gosh! The population of children between the ages of 7 and under in Nigeria whose understanding is still blurred exceed the entire Ghananian population so its ok if the entire population of Ghana have their initiatives darkened.

Thanks for saying this.
Most Nigerians now call Obasanjo "the best president we've ever had", "the father of modern day nigeria" etc. The same Obasanjo that wasted eight years of our national life!
