Why Northern Voters Will Back Jonathan – Tafawa Balewa's Son by rozayx5(m): 8:08am On Aug 22, 2013
Dr. Abduljhalil Tafawa Balewa, son of Nigeria’s first prime minister, Alhaji Tafawa Balewa, has said that President Goodluck Jonathan would be returned to office in 2015 based on his good works, saying the sophistication of northern voters would shock many.

In a session with newsmen in Lagos, yesterday, Abduljhalil, who holds a Ph.D in nuclear chemistry and spent 49 of hi 56 years outside the country, said President Jonathan has renewed confidence in the country through repair of infrastructure and empathy to northern interests and the dignity of women.

He especially praised Dr. Jonathan’s affirmative action on women, which he said, has promoted women to the highest level of governance as never before.

Dr. Tafawa-Balewa also dismissed the major opposition party in the country represented by the All Progressives Congress, APC, as doomed to failure, saying that it was full of failed PDP politicians.

He nevertheless made an exception with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, whom, he described as a good politician.

it is even more disheartening that this is coming from the son of a respected past leader(Tafawa balewa), who died serving nigeria.

This guy should be reminded that his father was killed for having the love of nigeria/nigerians at heart, and not subjecting nigerians to more poverty and hardship like gej is doing.

what flatulence !

The man understands that power in Nigeria is not by gra gra. Do you know how powerful an incumbent is? On a neutral ground Buhari would have won Gej if not for the incumbency power Gej had. Have you forgotten Romney and Obama?

I logg in everyday and I see people spitting nonsense about 2015. Let me tell you what will happen in 2015; GEJ would win the election, hundreds of people will die following the protest that would accompany it, I month later he would be sworn in for the third time, fresh air till 2019 whether you like it or not.
