A big thanks to Papa Ekwueme for speaking the truth. He did not gasticate Jonathan in any of this statement rather than to say that, Jonathan didn't accord the respect due for him as an elderly statesman.
Why twisting something he said in plain English? We don't you interpretation of what was very simple. He said Jonathan does not appreciate his contributions to this their democracy, of which Jonathan is a benefiaryy because according to him, if he did not risk his life with Abacha, Jonathan would not have been president today. He respect and appreciates only noise makers and trouble makers. If that is not castigate, what is?


This I believe Jonathan is at fault, I was so happy that, he made it clear and sounding to the ears of Nigerians that the situation we have in Nigeria today is not the making of Jonathan.
Again he said that the situation they had today predates Jonathan contrary to what most of you insisted on saying all the time that Boko Haram simply came because of Jonathan presidency.
He then compared how the Shagari government on a number of occasions faced the insurgency head on and crushed it and how the Buhari led government that followed them did exactly the same but Jonathan did just the opposite.

This I believe Jonathan is at fault, I was so happy that, he made it clear and sounding to the ears of Nigerians that the situation we have in Nigeria today is not the making of Jonathan. Even though, they had such with the paste leaders, it wasn't at the level of sucuide bombers as we have today that people are ready to die. I was also very happy when he emphasized that, the situation in the North became magnified immediately the result of 2011 election result was announced to Jonathan's favour; that it was made clear to him (Jonathan) that this country will be ungovernable for him. I am glad as I have read this, that is how other must have gone through it also. The question now, is, must we be blaming Jonathan for already waiting farmented trouble for his regime from the North? Of all these things that have happen in his tenure, he was able to achieve all these things listed below...

which no leader in this country have never achieved, and yet ungrateful elements continue to point an unnecessary accusing fingers to him for problems never created by him in the North, rather than accusing those Northern leaders including the so call Buhari, that lead this nation for over 40 years with the end result of creating nusiancs in the North out of neglect. The early we reverse to speak the truth, the better for all. The early will leave selfishness to speak the truth, the better for this nation.

If all of these achievements are verifiable, then Nigerians are biased and Jonathan deserves a second term. I want to believe you but that will make me hate my country people. How can anyone but a mischievous person know all of this and still label Jona clueless? If it is true, then the joke is on Nigerians. Not on Jona. They are the clueless ones.

All the past leaders put together, didn't achieve this feat. Jona is busy working in the right direction and haters and detractors are busy yapping. He may not be an OBJ or an Idiagbon( note I didn't say GMB), as he was never in the army, but he has vision. He may not know how to tackle all the political foxes but he's better democrat than GMB. He may be weak but he is smarter than his detractors give him credit.

Thank you for taking the time to highlight some of Jonathan's achievements. I appreciate that and I know that every honest nigerian does too. May God give us the strength and wisdom to speak the truth at all times and shun mischief and hypocrisy.

God bless us all.

Tell me something and just yesterday GEJ said the man is not corrupt, it seems like GEJ shares the same view with the person you are attacking.
I hope you watched the part where GEJ said Buhari jailed Alex Ekweme, is Alex Ekweme corrupt? NOOOOOOOO!!!!!! the crowd chorused.
......WHEN HE ASKED IF JIM NWOBODO IS CORRUPT, SAVANNAH BANK AND THE CASE OF STOLEN STADIUM'S GENERATOR CAME TO MIND.

Can you name one Nigerian politician that is not corrupt?

and because Ekwueme is corrupt, he should not have an opinion? and is an efulefu if he does?

Just asking, as I want to get you clearly.

obicentlis:

I'm not from Abia anyway but I'm an Imolite but sources of livelihood is in Aba. During last election, T. A. Orji was imposed on Abians by gej. He insisted on him. There has been petitions against him to the presidency but he turned blind eyes on it. So many reports has emanated from Abia State on the condition of the state but gej can't say anything cos T. A. Orji is his ardent supporter. He has sacrificed Abia cos T. A. Orji is his supporter. I pity Gej when he will visit Aba, he will be surprised the kinda treatment he will receive. Go and ask Okezie Ikpeazu what he got despite doing fairly well as ASEPA Chairman.


Wrong. Tell the credible people that contested against him in 2011.
