This gaffe shows that GEJ's advisers and speech-writers are very lame, unprofessional and poor in carrying out their responsibilities. Or, how on earth do you constantly ridicule Mr President with reported lies and unresearched stories? But then, whenever Nigerians express their constructive views as regards GEJ's administration in National Dailies, these same presidential handbags classify such views as silly and unreflective of the administration's performance. I smh for Goodluck cos of the low quality of his image makers. Meanwhile, as a PHD holder, Mr President himself should know that you don't just copy and paste anything from newspaper without thoroughly investigating such. Na wao! Well, I wish him and his media team Goodluck. |

maclatunji: Hahahahahahaha! How can we trust a leader who cannot get his facts correctly in an address to the country on our national day? This is a national embarrassment of monumental proportions. Is it not the same President who "doesn't give a damn " about what people are saying? He has been copying and pasting from Newspapers- what a shame from our PhD. holding President!Quiet,Mr Man...where you there? |

This man has demystified d office of d president; acting like d ordinary man on d street who is overwhelmed by life's problems but trudging on. This is why he connects with d ordinary ppl beta dan any nigerian politician dat pretends he knows it all & see d rest of d populace like dim wits. Come 2015, ds trait is going to work in his favour. D ppl want 'one of their own' as president. #(this is just an objective analysis of d situation & not holding forte for GEJ)# |

I am also waiting for the election observers to come and refute their baseless claims on the last election. If the president have no international support groups, he will start acting. |

It is a big shame on the president of a country not to know what is going on around him. This is the way I see GEJ. Am just thinking, if truly Transparency International rated Nigeria so high, don't we think an official congratulatory message or something close to the presidency to confirm this? I also think that if such letter did not come, it was the responsibility of the presidential medial aide to get across to TI for further confirmation. It is so sad that anyone can come to the president with a newspaper claiming that an average Nigerian is living above $1000 per day and the president will joyfully accept accept it and add it to his achievement in office. GEJ is surrounded by people who are telling him what he wants to hear--lies in order to assume/believe he is the messiah Nigeria was waiting for. As a president of the nation, I would have expected GEJ to know virtually everything that is going on around him rather than waiting to be fed with lies. Show me your friend and I will tell you the kind of person you are. God will save Nigeria. |

Even if somebody published false reports, the President is better positoned than anyone else to know that Corruption is not being addressed in the country,when People like Lawan and Otedola have not even being docked once. |

Aso Rock has become a circus center where unserious comedians display their poorly chiseled talent to amuse Nigerians in the name of speech writing,what in the world will make the president of the world's most populous black nation depend so much on a national newspaper for facts if not for absurdity. The TI report were not the only false report in that speech,so many things he said in that speech wrong including power being improved and the PIB,he also said that corruption has been cut down to the minimum which is a blatant lie. Elections are still being rigged daily,GEJ is not just the most criticized president in the world but also the most besotted,his actions and utterances always get me perturbed. |

Wat is more annoying is da fact dat som pple wld come here and defend GEJ wen da facts are dere for all to see.Nigeria isn't a local government where u can do copy and paste and expect well meaning citizens nt to cross check wateva u say. Do we have a president in Nigeria?a question for da gods! |

Was it not only yesterday I was telling the brainwashed Nairaland fans of GEJ that opposition Parties, prominent Nigerians and social critics will begin to condemn Jonathan for his shameful attempt to use deceit to mask how he has little to show in the fight against corruption for his almost 3 years as substantive President? Everyone knows corruption has worsened terribly under GEJ. This is the motivation for the desperate attempt to deceive Nigerians that those in bed with corruption are fighting it. GEJ has truly demeaned the office of President with his deceitful antics. What is written below is only the beginning. I am sure many social critics and political analysts are putting pen to paper right now regarding this disgraceful topic. http://saharareporters.com/news-page/%E2%80%98apologize-misleading-nigerians-anti-corruption-fight%E2%80%99-acn-tells-president-jonathan ‘Apologize for Misleading Nigerians on Anti-Corruption Fight,’ ACN Tells President Jonathan |

[b]Talk is cheap, keep talking till, your saliva runs dry. First, this topic is mischievous, it is a very big lie the way it is presented sensationally and very misleading. Secondly, the presidency never said that Nigeria is 2nd to America in the ratings of countries with improved corruption indices however, what the president said and which was based on a pure fact was that Nigeria is ranked second to the US amonged countries who have reinvigorated efforts at reducing the corruption menace( it's left for TI to tell if that effort is improving in the fight or not). He ( GEJ) went further to state ( during the interdenominational thanksgiving service) that the country awaits a new rating from transparency international to see if this will reflect on the country's position. These words are sharp contrast to what political jobbers in the opposition are preaching.. These jobbers thinking that most Nigerians won't think had twisted the president's statement to mean that GEJ said that Nigeria is 2nd to the U S in the fight against corruption .. These are different statement aparts and it will take good understanding of English language to decipher.[/b] |

Re: I Goofed, Businessday Misled Me - GEJ by Nobody: 7:55am On Oct 03, 2012 |
It is absolutely shameless that very intelligent people in this country are being ruled by some untaught people against their will. I'm awoken every morning with constant awareness of this and seldom ask: How did we let this happen? Democracy has been known to often times produce an unfortunate result, as did in the case of Hitler and many others. A lot people forget that Hitler was democratically elected. The spine of my rant is: Democracy isn't always the best. This isn't what we asked for. 3 Likes |

steffans: So why does he Pay Okpue and Abati GEJ is actuall a President Trainee as CAN claims..cuz dis guy is really Clueless......SMH 4 9ja Indeed. Abati, Okupe et al may actually be 'playing' GEJ. They may be taking money from political opponent of GEJ to rubbish the President. They know damn well he does not have a grasp of what is going on around him let alone be able to tell when he is being fed a pack of lies even a little kid can debunk. GEJ is not a talented leader at all and this is a fact that cannot be spun given what many years in politics reveal him to be - a mediocrity. He is poor at understanding the problems and terrible at devising solutions. This is why the man relies on having so many expensively maintained spin-doctors. Any leader who is a genuine solutions provider ,and not focused on an agenda of deceit, does not need so many spin-doctors and image launderers. As simple as that. |

taharqa: And did i add anything to this position of urs. we are basically saying the same thing. Not everything inside the Retardeen's speech on independence day was true and thats a fact. Besides this shows the kind if incapable hands all around him. I expect at least one of his numerous advisers to have been mandated to do due diligence to this speech before he decided to broadcast it to over 150Million Nigerians. Already, i'v praised him for accepting his mistake. It takes courage however it shoudnt end there. heads must row. Whosoever is responsible for this goof should be sacked. Such has succeeded in making the President look like a fool. If u must ask me, i am suggesting Abati. He must be sacked. |

this president is the best so far in this country in that he is the one and only president that has admitted a mistake. my highest or greatest praise goes to him, No one has ever done this in this country no matter how gravious an issue is. I also no that since the president has a greater number of enemies, it is ththis kind of things they have been praying for. Instead of the revers. |

When oga presido nor be small pikin....How dem end up still feeding him lies and he keeps buying baffles me o. I dont envy the position that GEJ box himself into..... Fire all them sychos and make example outta of em. When a person surrounds himself with advisers like Maku the silly one, Okupe the dog, Abati the Liar, Reno the "spinner" and even non portfolio advisers who are murderers like Ateke, Tompolo, Asari etc and their kind, what do u expect? He is to be blamed for his predicament. |
Re: I Goofed, Businessday Misled Me - GEJ by Rhapsody1(f): 8:11am On Oct 03, 2012 |
superior1: Abeg, what is the meaning of Notorious Fact [/b][/size] It is a fact that is so notorious or well known, or so authoritatively attested, that it cannot reasonably be doubted. In law, notorious facts need not be proved in the usual way. They are said to be so obvious that a court may simply take notice of them. Based on the above definition, that gaffe does not qualify as NOTORIOUS FACT. Or else, why had Premium Times needed to confirm from TI if it was a well known/authoritatively attested fact. And if media houses were not aware of this fact, how was the average Nigerian expected to know. Plus, it is not tenable in court without supporting evidence. Another (better) phrase should be used to describe the mistake, and not NOTORIOUS FACT. Just pointing out something |

kokoA: If this is true then I wonder why Mr. President have not sent his speech writers parking.. This is really embarassing for the presidency. Now GEJ should know that his enemies isn't the opposition nor his social media critics, his enemies are those dinning with him there in aso villa. No Nigerian wants our country to fail, so it beats my imagination when people criticise the government are calle "haters" of the president. Smh! Maybe the speech was written by an CAN member to embarass the president sha. This post i love |
