Why I Am Keeping Quiet — Jonathan by shaddoww: 5:54pm On Jul 27, 2015
Former President Goodluck Jonathan has
opted to remain silent despite the barrage of
questions requiring answers from him by not
just newsmen, but Nigerians in general on his
handling of the nation’s affairs.
Jonathan said he will, for now, rather remain
silent.
According to his spokesperson while in office,
Dr Reuben Abati, the former president has
asked him to tell those seeking to speak with
him, especially newsmen that he is resting.
In an article entitled: “The phones no longer
ring,” Abati, the Special Adviser on Media to
Jonathan, said he has had to deal with
barrage of requests for interview with his
former boss.
He, however, said Jonathan had told him to
inform those making the requests that he is
resting.
In the article in which Abati appeared to be at
pains as to the stoppage of the numerous
phone calls that he got while in office, but
most of which he did not attend to, he
explained: “Today, the phones remain loudly
silent, with the exception of calls from those
friends who are not gloating, who have been
offering words of commendation and support.
“They include childhood friends, former
colleagues, elderly associates, fans, and
family members.
“And those who want interviews with
President Jonathan, both local and
international – they want his reaction on
every development, so many of them from
every part of the planet.
“But he is resting and he has asked me to say
he is not ready yet to say anything.
“It is truly, a different moment, and indeed,
‘no condition is permanent.’
“The ones who won’t give up with the stream
of phone calls and text messages are those
who keep pestering me with requests for
financial assistance.
“I am made to understand that there is
something called “special handshake” and
that everyone who goes into government
supposed to exit with carton loads of cash.
“I am in no position to assist such people,
because no explanation will make sense to
them.
“Here I am, at the crossroads; I am glad to be
here.”
In the opening paragraphs of the article,
which was earlier published by this news
website, Abati said: “As spokesman to
President Goodluck Jonathan, my phones rang
endlessly and became more than personal
navigators within the social space.
“They defined my entire life; dusk to dawn, all
year-round.
“The phones buzzed non-stop, my email was
permanently active; my twitter account
received tons of messages per second.
“The worst moments were those days when
there was a Boko Haram attack virtually every
Sunday.”

GEJ my HERO

How can GEJ be the hero of a forward looking young man?. I am really worried for Nigeria. So you want to be clueless?. No leadership skills?, your wife controlling you?, uncontrollably corrupt?, lying and breaking agreements?, condoning corruption?, fearing the truth?, ....what is attractive in these qualities?. Jonathan is just an ordinary slightly below average person thrust to high office by Alams and Obj who could not measure up to the demands of history. Please repeat after me that is not your portion.

Stealing is not corruption.

Eg

Using DSS to intimidate INEC officials in River state is a case of corruption. Will you call that stealing
