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

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.

Jimmy Boy: 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.

Abel202: [b]My People, I am one of those who believes that Jonathan is on the right track in many areas of National development although his nature does not command respect nor inspires one as a Leader should.
But honestly this pardoning of Alamesieya is a very wrong move. I know that Alams is his former boss and all those crap, but if GEJ takes fighting corruption even a bit seriously he will not commit this grave error of judgement. There is no justification for this irresponsible decision. I have always said that fighting corruption headlong is Jonathans weakest link and If its true that a chain is as strong as its weakest link then GEJ should realy buckle up and fight corruption headlong.
I do not criticise for the sake of it. A father can take a wrong decision (once in a while, not all the time), but He still remains your father and you will still respect him and not resort to calling him names. Let us condemn this counter-productive, ill-advised decision of Jonathan in the strongest possible terms. But let us not resort to name calling. Mr President has made a serious mistake in this. In short by this singular act, he has aborted the fight against corruption (that is if there was any fight against corruption since Yaradua and later GEJ took over).
This is one silly mistake. But does this singular act make Mr Jonathan unelectable come 2015, The answer is simply no.
If Jonathan gets it right in Railways (affirmative), if GEJ gets it right on Electoral reforms (affirmative) If GEJ gets it right on building more Universities and funding existing ones (affirmative), If GEJ gets it right in improving our Power generation and distribution (affirmative),If GEJ gets it right on Agriculture (affirmative) and if GEJ gets it right on the second Niger Bridge (I hope affirmative soon) amongst other things etc; Then even if GEJ scores below average on fighting corruption (Affirmative because he is already scoring far far below average), He will still have more positives than negatives to brandish as his score card to merit him getting a second term.
I just pray and Urge our president to please stop punching corruption with Kid gloves. Grow some serious balls and fight this scourge so that it will not bury Nigeria one day.[/b]

lag.boy1:


he is insane, just leave him alone.

JIGHU:

GEJ LIVES IN ASO ROCK, YOU LIVE IN BADIA OJORA NEAR THE RAILWAY,GEJ RIDES IN THE BEST CARS AND FULL COMPLEMENT OF SECURITY DETAIL AND YOU STILL HANG ON MOLUE AND TRAIN, YOU TALKING ABOUT MEDIOCRITY/CLUELESSNESS? BETTER GO FIND BETTER BABALAWO TO WASH YOUR HEAD BEFORE RITUALIST FIND YOU...COS YOU ARE AN ENDANGERED SPECIE OOO WITH WERE U LIVE

maclatunji:

You have displayed an abysmal lack of insight. Even if he is homeless, it does not detract from the fact that GEJ is proving to the world that it pays to be a corrupt politician in Nigeria. Ironically, he is preaching to the international community that he is fighting corruption. Alamiyeseigha should be tried in Nigeria not pardoned. Where is the sense of shame in all this?

JIGHU:

GRANTING OF PARDON TO A PERSON AFFECTS YOUR DAILY LIFE? I SEE....PLEASE THAT MEANS YOU DONT HAVE A LIFE AND PLEASE YOU HAVE NEVER VOTED IN YOUR LIFE, YOU CAN BARELY READ OR WRITE

Billyonaire: 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.

churchillfrank: Forgive us our transgression as we forgive those who trangress against us.

slim fit :


Move to religious section please thank just look up.

JIGHU:

ARE YOU NOT AN IGNORAMUS? SO YOU DONT KNW ALAMS HAD BEEN TRIED ALREADY? YOU JUST SPEWED THE LAST DROP OF YOUR BRAIN ON THIS THREAD....DID GEJ INVENT CORRUPTION? IS CORRUPTION NOT IN YOUR VILLAGE?HAVE YOU TACKLED YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT CHAIRMAN OR VILLAGE HEAD? YOU WAKE UP AND SPEW BULLCRAP ABOUT A MATTER WHICH WILL NOT PUT FOOD ON YOUR MISERABLE TABLE...INSTEAD OF GOING ABOUT FINDING HOW YOU CAN LIVE DREAM LIFE,YOU SIT YOUR LAZY BUM IN A CYBER CAFE PRETENDING TO LOVE NIGERIA(A COUNTRY YOU DONT EVEN KNOW THE GDP?) ONIRANU

tomakint:
The shame is actually on you!

Dave2013: Sad comment from Okupe all in the name of feeding his family.

Pataki: This is the same Jonathan who went to Redeem camp and asked Adeboye to pray for him?

I was saddened when Nigerians voted for this foolish man. No wonder Bakare said Nigerians are idiots governed by idiots.

Alams that fled from the justice system in the UK, only now to be awarded a State pardon in Nigeria.

If you voted for this man, you are an idiot! 2015 presents itself to correct your idiocy.

JIGHU:

YOU CAN EVEN HARDLY SPELL

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.
