Mehn, Thx to the voters of Jonathan Goodluck Retardeen.... I shed tears like Buhari did.

Alamleyeselgha still remain his BENEFACTOR,

so he doesn't give a damn.

idlaw2k3: What of James Ibori? He also needs a pardon

Exactly, dat's wat it has come to ma colleague

Mkpotu: I just observed federal character was not applied in presidential pardon. How can hausa/fulani alone have 5 people, Yoruba 2, Niger Delta 1 and not a single Igbo.

I think its not equitable. Or does it mean that no Igbo man has stolen & deserves 2 b pardoned? If Abdulkarim Adisa deserves pardon, why can't one Igbo politicians be pardoned or is there none?

you just cracked my ribs lol

Congrats Alam.
Well spoken Okupe.
Well done Mr. President !

Like your moniker says, you're a noisemaker.

Please learn to Respect the Decision of the Council of State. This was a difficult but unilateral decision of Council of State! Alams was not the only one pardoned, why is he your instruments of hate ? Is it because he was hated by OBJ for standing up for his principles ? Is OBJ holier than Alameseigha ? Oh Yes, Alameseigha broke the 11th Commandment and also learnt his lessons and deserve a second chance. "He who has not sinned, let him cast the first stone" - Jesus, the Founder of Christianity.

Shame on you!

Joey82:
When reminded that the action had created the impression that the government was not serious about the war against corruption, Mr. Jonathan said, “It is not all decisions parents take that are palatable for their kids. But with time they will realize that their parents are right.”

He said pardoning Mr. Alamieyeseigha was in order as the former Bayelsa governor had suffered enough.

“A man was deposed. He was hounded, tried and jail. What is wrong with giving pardon to a remorseful sinner?

“How come granting pardon to him has become an aberration? Is it because he is from Bayelsa? Is it from he is from South-South? Is it because he is connected to Mr. President?”

whenever stupid decisions are taken my our so called corrupt filled public office holders, we should just go into our bedroom like a kid who "weeweed" on his bed

it Will be disappointing if this STATE PARDON is not extended to bode george and others!!!!!!!

Shame on you!

You disagree with the teaching of Lord Jesus Christ ? That we should give the Magdalenes a second chance ? You wanna be the first to cast the stone ? I thought you said President GEJ is weak, now y'all gonna see balls. Watch out for the next!

Alams is now pardoned. For all his sufferings, GEJ should send him on holiday to the UK where he can be a guest of Her Majesty....it will be a very long and memorable holiday...

wowo2: Alams is now pardoned. For all his sufferings, GEJ should send him on holiday to the UK where he can be a guest of Her Majesty....it will be a very long and memorable holiday...

Hahahahahah Nnah mehn, Alams will still visit there and come back, last time he broke the world record dressing out like a pretty sexy lady, this time I can assure you, he has more tricks off his sleeves. He could dress out as a police escort, dont play with IBB boys oh...(just catching fun here).

If this is the basis for granting pardon in my country, then all prisoners should be released. How would u grant a man that robbed a whole state of their future on the basis that he's suffered enuf? God help Nigeria. I rest my pen.

emmasege: If only the opposition could give us credible candidates that will be acceptable to majority of Nigerians. This GEJ of a man is the worst president Nigeria has ever had----- clueless,irrational, insensitive, indecisive, docile, impotent....... APC or whatever u call urself, pls give us credible opposition and let's show this man the way back to the creeks.

Buhari is credible enough. Moreover my stance is that if GEJ contests against a nonentity called "Himself" I will vote "Himself" in 2015.

May Okupe be cursed for all his utterances in trying to fool Nigerians always.

Joey82: President Goodluck Jonathan has confirmed the granting of presidential pardon to a former Governor of Bayelsa State, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, and a few other ex-convicts.

PREMIUM TIMES had broken the strory of the pardon while the meeting was underway Tuesday morning.

We also reported details of the proceedings minutes after the meeting ended.

Presidential spokespersons had gone underground for most of yesterday in what appeared a ploy to dodge media enquiry on the controversial pardon of a man who stole his people blind while governor.

But Mr. Jonathan, speaking through his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Doyin Okupe, has now confirmed our report.

He said he has no apology for his action.

Mr. Okupe spoke on Channels TV breakfast show, Sunrise.

“That is an action that has been taken by the National Council of States and I have no apology for that.” Mr. Jonathan said. “We must begin to respect and honour our institutions. I don’t need to defend the action that has been taken.”

When reminded that the action had created the impression that the government was not serious about the war against corruption, Mr. Jonathan said, “It is not all decisions parents take that are palatable for their kids. But with time they will realize that their parents are right.”

Jonathan is my Uncles.

Gbawe.:


Another "I don't give a damn" utterance. When will Nigerians accept the crudeness of this man? You vote for corruption and mediocrity personified yet you are expected a sophisticated political reformer. Comical.

Now if they say you are biased in your views on this forum, you start to fight dirty, political corruption and mediocrity my foot, what a way to go

Seun.A.Plonker:


Shame on you!

The shame is actually on you!

fxskye:

Dont quote d poster out of contest.....d post is hyronical. GEJ continue with ur stunt

YOU CAN EVEN HARDLY SPELL

http://www.mongabay.com/reference/country_studies/nigeria/all.html

[size=16pt]Jes click and learn from it.... We need Buhari very seriuzly... This Country is dirty already and needs total cleansing.[/size]

JIGHU:

YOU CAN EVEN HARDLY SPELL

I swear... jes as he can't spell, he's also as dumb as his way of reasoning.

Nice one JIGHU

Goddex: Tinubu is by far a much bigger thief than Alams but is
moving freely and even calling the shots in South West politics.

Alams wealth is not up to 5 percent of Tinubu's. He may have sinned,
but is sorry for his sins and is forgiven, simple. GEJ alone is not Council of State.
Council of State include: All former Heads of State,President and Vice-President, Ministers,
Senate President and Speaker House of Reps, All governors.

it is because of illiterates like you this country is in it present condition, you cant imagine how stupid I believe you are , my only fear is hope you are not infecting those around you with your stupidity. Idiot

wazobia_for_u:

Go and check your temperature at the nearby MDG hospital because you are SICK

Let appreciate our gov when they do something good and let reject their actions when they are wrong

Not to be defending them Blindly

SO WHAT HE DID WAS WRONG? PLS TELL US THE CORRECT THING HE SHOULD HAVE DONE? SEEING THAT PARDON IS IN THE LAW BOOKS AND THE DECISION WAS BY COUNCIL OF STATE(COMPRISING OF VARIOUS PERSONALITIES)....CAN YOU COMPREHEND? HOW OLD ARE YOU? PLS LEAVE THAT CYBER CAFE BEFORE YOU RUN INTO DEBT OF TREKKING HOME, ONIRANU OMO JATI JATI...ALAPA STAINLESS,OKPONU ARA GALATIA

It took great restraint for me not to call all the people that voted for GEJ names, you guys brought us to where we are today, with your petty sentiments.

Jonathan ... inept, reta.rded and dumb!
Jonathan ... One of the worst things to have happened to Nigeria in the last few years
Jonatham ....Otueke vagabond, you are a disgrace!!!

o.chizo:


how about doing a medical check-up

HOW ABOUT YOU FIRST LEARNING HOW TO READ AND WRITE?
