While am not here condemning the motives of President Goodluck Jonathan going to China to seek for loan, am very disappointed and ashamed to be called an African man, a Nigerian, and by extension, a Yoruba man for that matter, for the inferior reception being given to the President.

Reading all the newspapers today, i saw that President Jonathan was received at the airport by the Chinese Assistant Foreign Minister, and our dear President was seen smiling towards the guest. Its a global phenomenon that whenever a president of any country is going to another country for a visit or business, the host president would as a matter of reception, go to the airport to receive the president irrespective of the country the president is heading.

I am very worried and disturbed that our president can be subjected to this charade of shame called reception. Nevertheless, had it mean Nigeria has live up to its name, our president wouldn't have been subjected to this humiliation. I heard our president is in China to seek for 3billion dollars when in the first place, we have so many things we can use in this country to generate such amount. The amount being realised by the oil bunkerers every month is more than 3billion dollars.

If our president can be given this kind of reception, i wonder what manner of reception they would give to an ordinary man. My candid advice for everybody is that we should look inward and solve our problems instead of travelling far and wide to seek for loans. It is high time we harness our natural resources so that we can generate more financial strength to cater for our financial needs.

THANK YOU ALL

Too bad.

Hmm

when i watched the arrival, i noticed almost all the people he WENT with lined up to welcome and shake his hand

I mean these are the same people he travelled with, they couldnt get chinese officials/businessmen to welcome him

Na today??
The same way a low-ranking congressman was sent by the US to attend his Inaugration.

GEJ needs to Overhaul his Ministry of Foreign Affairs..It Reeks of Corruption, Low Self esteem, cluelessness and redundancy!

So Retardeen don go shame himself for China again?

Like he did in Australia during the commonwealth head of govt meeting

Like he did in Davos

Attention seeking Retardeen and Retardeeness! "shaking my head"

Apologies to Demdem, i just had to use the words.

LSWTMB! Laff Seriously Wan Team My Belle ooo

Even the Chinese know that this beggarly president is a buffoon! Just for $ 3 B, he has sold out more of the respect of Nigerians! Chai, when Obasanjo was president, he played in the leagues of Bush, Clinton and Gordon Brown! Now, the retardeenic president goes to smile for the camera for regular pencil pushers in the Chinese bureaucracy - a regular office staff devoid of any real powers! All they have to do is to shove the measly 3 B in his mouth and extort guarantees that have been written way before the meeting! Does anyone think this loan is for nothing? Chinese loan repayable with at interest, and the jobs must be contracted to Chinese firms, plus more! Yet they send a low-ranking pencil pusher! This is what the tribal and religious bigots have gotten Nigeria into!

This tends to show the level of ridicule Nigeria have been subjected to in recent years. You can never see Jacob Zuman travelling to any country, and the host country would send someone to receive zuma, it has never happen before. The minister of foreign affairs should tell us why Nigeria's ego was insulted, and our president turned to a mere local government chairman with an assistant foreign affairs sent to welcome him.

Lest I forget, I was told that Jonathan went to China with his wife, 13 ministers and 5 governors just to seek for 3billion dollars loan. Is this not barbaric and incorrigible? Who foot the bills of the travelling? Nigeria is as hopeless as anything.

I guess our president is not assertive and affirmative. During OBJ era, he was never received by any minister at the airport other than the host president or prime minister. Obasanjo was soinfluential and powerful that any country he's going to, the host country always give their maximum allegiance and support to him right frm the airport. Jonathan need to imbibe this mentality and stop being ridiculed by these CHINKOS

Abeg you guys leave my president alone jor.

Please show some respect.

At least he was not drunk on Kainkain and he did not grab a Chinese girl at the airport.

How do you expect a prodigal beggar to be treated?

.

Lmao!, this is strangly funny ... Well what do you expect from a man who had no shoes ..i heard the chinese president dont deal with people who had no shoes.... Its a pity all d same.. *covers face in shame* smh

Idoma Likita: Na today??

GEJ NIGERIA needs to Overhaul hisher Ministry of Foreign Affairs..It Reeks of Corruption, Low Self esteem, cluelessness and redundancy!

I'm coming with a revolution to that ministry my friend...in due time!

The fact is that they know that they have conquered nigeria. They are getting everything for nothing.
When your government is giving out oil blocks for infrastructure ,they instinctively know that they are dealing with a provincial class stateman.
When you borrow money from a country and then use that money to buy stuffs from the same country without them even bidding fit.you will be taken advantage of.
The world of diplomacy is no different from the business world.
You have to bargain hard like people do in idumota,alaba that even the owner of the shop would be praying that his gods should not bring this customer to his shop ever again

You folks seem to think so highly of Nigeria. Its not GEJs fault that the world have very low regard for our country. it because we are a country that is yet to live up to its potentials.
If china will help us realize those potentials and earn some respectability from the international communities then so be it.
and until then we are just another developing African country.

I dnt really undastd all this NL dudes, few hours ago u were supporting and celebrating GEJ, and Just now u are cursing the retardeen....ooo sory the man..........nawaoo

Frm my stand point,Nigerians got no president. GEJ is a disgrace to giant of africa,he has made everything worst both localy and internationally,no self-esteem for Nigerians and Nigeria globally. Am so dispointed in GEJ..am nt proud to be a Nigerian

Whether monkeys were sent to receive him doesn't change the fact that he is the president of your country. Is a political plus for him to humble himself and shook hands with the low key chinese officials that were sent to welcome him. This event shows that he is not a spoilt brat. The moment you imps put it into your vermin infested skulls that GEJ must complete his God given two tenure, the better for your miserable souls. Ara sachaupu una anya.

hmm!

Not the Chinese President, not the Foreign Minister. . . . The Assistant Foreign Minister recieving our Almighty President the olowo ori of madam patient., Oluomo 1 of Otuoke Land. . . That is so humilating.

Mr. Man, its like you don't understand what is called INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AND DIPLOMACY. For instance, Obama wnt to visit Nigeria, and Goodluck Jonathan sent Minister of foreign affairs to meet him at the airport, what would you think? This issues is not a matter of being a spoilt brat or not, its the norm of diplomatic etiquettes and it has to be followed strictly.

Are you teling us that you are happy that our president, and Nigerians by extension are happy begging for loans and grants here and there when we have so much potentials which are waiting to be harnessed?

Jona-dumbo's trouble is that naughty boy called Ameachi and his NGF partners. I learnt from a credible source It was APC and other haters that told the Chinko Govt to treat Dumbo like an errand boy.

Who was celebrating him? Those celebrating are the shortsighted villagers from SE/SS - and the civilized ones among them will not even celebrate him - a man that doesnt give a damn to asset declaration now going about to borrow money which most probably will be stolen.

you are just so dumb and retarded. I hope you never show the picture where the chinese prime minister went to the airport to receive jonathan.
