Since the advent of democracy in 1999, Enugu State has shown its unwavering support for the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. As the President Goodluck Jonathan presidential campaign train got to Enugu on January 9, from Lagos State where the presidential campaign was flagged off, residents trooped out en mass to identify with PDP amid excitement.THE Electorate in Enugu State has over time demonstrated its unflinching resolve to identify with PDP. That accounts for the bandwagon effect among politicians as the party is seen as the most viable vehicle for achieving political aspiration.
Thus, the state chapter of the party made efforts to convince President Jonathan during the visit that Enugu is a PDP state even though some observers believe that the February 14 presidential election will be a keen contest between Jonathan and his major opponent from the All Progressives Congress, APC, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (retd).Thus, people from all parts of the state and beyond trooped to the Nnamdi Azikiwe stadium for the event. It was a carnival of sorts as the teeming members of the party in different PDP regalia danced to the expansive arena. The singers intermittently sang praises of President Jonathan, Governor Sullivan Chime and Enugu PDP candidate, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.
President Jonathan finally arrived the venue of the colourful rally at exactly 2.15 p.m.. He was accompanied by his wife, Dame Patience Jonathan, deputy Vice President, Namadi Sambo, National Chairman of the party, Alhaji Adamu Muazu, Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha, Governor Sullivan Chime and Enugu PDP governorship candidate, Hon Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.President Jonathan said his administration has fought corruption more than any other past administration in the country, urging APC to tell Nigerians how they will tackle corruption in the country.
De-constructing Buhari
Many of those who listened to President Jonathan’s speech were in agreement that it was meant o de-construct Buhari.
President Jonathan accused Buhari of deceiving the people by promising that he would revive the economy without correspondingly explaining how he would achieve that.
He wondered how Buhari could develop the economy when he could not do so in office as head of state between 1983 to 1985.
“Is it now that Buhari cannot even remember his own phone number that he can change the economy?” he asked.President Jonathan who said although he did not like to go personal during campaigns, said that “sometimes, certain things demand that certain things must be said”.
The President said that the APC candidate belonged to the medieval age, adding that Buhari’s intention is to run the Federal Government like a medieval king.
His words: “we cannot run the government as if we are in a medieval age; we cannot run a government where somebody said he would throw people into jail. You are not a medieval king- a medieval king can throw somebody into jail but we have to follow the rule of law because we cannot go back to the old days”.
President Jonathan was not done yet as he read the speech made by former Head of State, Gen Ibrahim Babangida (rtd) after overthrowing Buhari on August 27, 1985, to justify the fact that Buhari does not keep his promises.
Gen Babangida in the portion of the speech read by Jonathan justified the overthrow of the APC flag bearer saying that Buhari did not live up to the promises he made to Nigerians when he overthrew a democratically elected government headed by Alhaji Shehu Shagari.The President quoted Babangida as saying: “The initial objectives of Buhari’s intervention was betrayed as there was a general deterioration of standard of living in the country.”
Many observers argue that Jonathan’s hard knocks on Buhari made him to gloss over what he would do for the South East people and indeed Nigeria, if re-elected for a second term in office.

one barrel of crude oil is now below 50$

One barrel of crude if refine is equivalent to 150 liters of fuel.

Do the maths

Why can't we own a refinery?

If we refine this crude oil in nigeria there will be no need spending money for imported fuel.

We could simply buy locally refine fuel for 20naira.

Oil thefts steals 400,000 barrel per day.

And nigeria only need free 250,000 barrel per days to power our economy, but only few people enrich themselves with GEJ.

This will only make us to spend for refining cost and by then it will be around 10naira if crude oil is free.

This will make our economy more stronger and the poor will feel the impact of a government. No robbery and kidnapping.

to power electricity and the whole nigeria economy is 250,000 a day. Oil thefts steals 400,000 per day.

Jonathan failed nigerians
