ooshinibos: Many people had different expectations from GEJ. What everyone failed to realize is the limitations GEJ faced. I'm pretty sure if PMB had his way, he would have wanted a different crop of ministers, but Alas he had to compensate those who stood for him even if they had questionable records. That is a former military dictator who has been trying to get into power for 12 years in a party that is less than a year old. Now compare to a gentle civilian who rose through the ranks out of providence, had no previous aspiration to the presidency, in the now defunct largest party in Africa. Did you expect Jonathan to stand up successfully against strong-willed chieftains who had the nation in its gauntlets and still do. Can you remember how the removal of the fuel subsidy was grossly fought against? The stalwarts in PDP under GEJ have now subtly crossed the border into APC. Do you think subsidy will just disappear, or power supply will just miraculously become a 24/7/365 thing, or that the refineries will start working, or all the federal roads will be tarred, or we would have a fully functioning rail network connecting the whole country, or that we would all of a sudden have world-class hospitals, or that out tertiary institutions will climb up to enter top-1000 universities in the world? Come on this is not Disneyland, it's Nigeria. Democracy is not autocracy or a monarchy. You cannot bite the hands that fed you without consequences. For a preamble, look at Boko Haram, when it could have been squashed, the Northern elders by their silence let it grow to haunt the GEJ administration to keep to their promise that they would make the country "ungovernable" for him. BH prisoners were routinely released by sympathetic officials. Blaming all those on GEJ is like blaming PMB for the Southern Ijaw violence in Bayelsa. This underscores why PMB is currently voicing his frustration as to the complexity of the anti-corruption fight. There are party chieftains, economic behemoths (subsidy cabal, power cabal...), saboteurs and so on. In Nigeria, transformation of infrastructure deficit, lopsided power, shabby health care, dilapidated education cannot happen in 4 years, heck in 16 years. You need progressive small steps. And progressive small steps GEJ took. What he did was establish a way to keep the money flowing (FDI) by painting the picture of a liberal economy for the private sector to take advantage of. Then he worked on revamping the Agriculture sector to a sustainable pace. The took a step back to revitalize the industries with giant strides made in the auto segment. He revamped the rail sector as well. He also did make small improvements in other sectors. He gave INEC more autonomy to bolster the nation's democracy and a few other improvements that aren't too significant to be felt. The rest of the time he had to deal with quibbles inside his party, from hostile regions, security challenges, irresponsible opposition, saboteurs in his government, economic hoodlums who were finding it difficult to let go of the do-what-you-like era of OBJ. You have to face it, leadership can only do so much in Nigeria. Look at PMB and the state of the nation now, do you understand what I mean now? About diversion of funds. For crying out loud it happens virtually everywhere. Do you know of the blackwater scandal in the US. Or how defence contractors regularly take mouth-watering defence contracts from the US and NATO and deliver sub-par services. Do not be a simpleton. Part of the money that was meant for the development of Rivers and Lagos were diverted to PMB's campaign. We wouldn't hear of it because APC is in power now. There's one thing I never do, I don't expect the devil to say the truth. Don't expect politicians to represent your interest. At least not in the present Nigeria. GEJ did not pillage as much as OBJ. I am not trying to defend the corruption under GEJ: Lord knows I was irritated by the many scandals during his presidency like Odua's bulletproof car scandal. But I did not let these setbacks blind me from the little progress we were making. Unemployment rate was sinking, new businesses were setting shop (look at the malls), food security was improving... You don't throw away the baby and the bath water. GEJ did not fail. He only did not live up to the dreamy superman messianic figure that short-sighted dim-witted unenlightened simpletons had envisaged. Exactly the same way PMB is not living up to the saintly figure the exact same people had envisaged. -Lord 3 Likes |

Confine your argument to the topic and title of the thread. There is nothing on the internet that says World Diplomatic Circles PERIOD.
