Goodluck Jonathan, former president of Nigeria, has
described politicians as liars, advising young people not to
get swayed by their words.
Speaking on Saturday at the presentation of the flag of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to Seriake Dickson,
governor of Bayelsa and the party’s candidate in Saturday’s
election, Jonathan asked the people to assess all those
seeking their votes.
He said it was up to them to decide if they wanted to use
their ballots to take the state forward or backward.
“For the Bayelsa young people, do not be carried away by
politicians. Politicians are people of many words, they go to
so many places, talking to so many people and telling so
many lies,” he said.
“Do not listen to what people say, but assess what people
have done over the period.
“Most of the candidates are well known to you, so it is the
choice of Bayelsa young people to vote for development of
this state or to vote for the retrogression of this state. It is
the choice of Bayelsa young people to vote for education of
our youths or to vote for the retrogression of our young
people.
“The choice is ours and I think you will think beyond
yourselves. At our age, we are looking down, we are not
looking up, whether you like it or not.
“So, think about your children and your grandchildren, think
about building a state for your children and grandchildren,
do not think about what you will swallow in the morning.”
Jonathan, who said he was proud of Dickson’s record,
appealed to the people to re-elect him.
“I believe that the steps so far taken by Dickson has shown
that he wants development of this state,” he said.
“Dickson has encouraged development in this state. He is
committed, he has that vision and all the projects he has
been carrying on show that the young man is seeing
Bayelsa beyond today. No leader can change a nation if you
do not see beyond your nose.
“I am telling the young people, this election is not for
Jonathan and Dickson, the election is for you to vote for
your liberation, to live in peace and to live in developed
society.”

The type of lies that brought president Bubu in, how dear anyone expect bubu to work? Too much lies can only bring more lies.

Pot calling kettle black.

We already know from what Junketer-in-chief is doing. APC has denied all campaign promises after promising miracles to Nigerians.

Jona jona

We av heard u

Ok

Sir we know, just that some citizens love the way politicians lie.

The lies you told Nigerians that now expect APC to right in 6months.Hmmm.Some people will fall dead if they are privileged to some documents about this country.APC didn't expect such and they were overwhelm.APC!!!Take you time.Don't rush things.We believe Nigeria will be great again.

Buhari and his cohorts are point of references sir. You need not break it down any further.

But Jona, you told so many lies during your administration. Politicians in Nigeria are all the same. But there are those with good intentions amongst them. Don't put your trust in Nigerians politicians. They will fail you completely. But trust in God instead that faileth not, for he will bring you to the expected end.
