Those are some cold hard words.

You can't help but get chills reading them.

The truth and conviction in those words are piercing.

He saw it comming, he knew that the commuter president was desperate for powers. Now they have admitted that he had good idea for the country. May God bless every oxygen he takes and co2 he exhale including his body metabolism
Everybody has good ideas, the execution methods label person failure or success. Jona is a failure.

That was a political tone how can you judge PMB who is just spending just about 10 months in office with PDP who destabilized Nigeria for a whole 16 years? the different is clear. it is easy to damage but difficult to repair. we are reaping the PDP damages now so we need to give APC to do the repair. The problem of Nigerians is that we always in a hurry and we don't allow a good leader to fix the country. Many people are shouting hunger hunger hunger and that it was PMB that caused it. If I may ask this set of people are the one crying of hunger since inception of PDP ruling for the past 16 yrs. who now cause the famine in the land? Let give PMB a chance to fix Nigeria especially we masses no condition is permanent we need time.

Jonathan is an intelligent man he knew the economy of the country will worsen due to the way his corrupt cabinets is embezzling the nation's resources thats why he relinquished the power and our fulani brother was happy to be in control. who are people blaming now Jonathan or Buhari?

Jonathan is not intelligent and you know it.
He was an academic at sone point in his life but that is not intelligence. Maybe that was why even he was so dull as president and could not control anything around him.
He also did not know the economy of the country. It is a disgrace that a young man will say that Jonathan was good in government. It neans we have a long way to go and parochialism abd kocal mindedness has taken over the country.

He has been known to count private jets and touted it as an index of economic growth. A lot of people have watched Jonathan up close. He is not intelligent at all. Listen to all his interviews and you will know. You can hold on to your views but please if they give you sonething to lead or manage don't ever behave like Jonathan

when will nigerians face the truth, you say jonathan knew all these crisis where coming then he must have been the best person to avert them. With your buhari in power, nigeria is declining to her worst state. My heart bleeds for our country and ignorant nigerians.

The best person to have averted the crisis my foot and he couldn't do anything to diversify the economy in his 6 years at the helm of affairs? And it was only when the price of crude was falling that his economic team throught of that? If he was still there, do you think the likes of those returning money could have done that? Do you not know that Nigeria could have been further ostracised?

Let Jonathan and his co-travellers go and sit down. They brought our nation to its knees by what they did and what they failed to do. If we had built our reserves during rainy days, we would be able to insulate against the dwindling prices of crude in the world market. THose who claim Buhari and the CBN are wrong, i dare ask...What alternative policies do they suggest
As a lay man, i have considered this:
Devaluation of naira: Genuine importers of raw materials will buy dollar at 350-400 naira, price of their finished good will increase. Purchasing power of everyone will drop. including the masses who dont deal with forex, BDC etc.

What is the proportion of Nigerians that is affected by 1 dollar = 350 naira today compared to when naira is devaluated??
With the current regime, Every demand for forex outside genuine importers of raw matertials buy at black market (including those of us who buy cloths from Aliexpress, ebay etc..), including those who enjoy luxurious Dubai travels. Does the current regime affect Mr Salako who eats Garri (ijebu), Tomatoe (Kano), Onion (Sokoto), and Beans (Adamawa) and palm oil (Ondo) Does it affect the cost of taking the average civil servant from his house to work Does it affect the cost of buying 1 bag of Dangote cement to continue his 2 bedroom bungallow
Am sure tie and dye from Abeokuta or Aba made Jeans shoudnt be affected. So who are the real victims of this current regime of FX over-demand in the market?? My lay man perspective you may say.........

You are SERIOUSLY confused. What's happening in your head is WAY out of sync with what's going on in the streets of Nigetia right now. So quit distorting reality. Just go to the streets and check out prizes starting with RICE, BEANS and OIL. Then you can come back and talk.

Can't you stop this useless ethnic nonsense!

Was it only south south and south east that made jonathan president?

Was it not obasanjo that single handedly made jona president of nigeria?
Did states like katsina not vote for jonathan in 2011
Did tunde bakare mallam Nasir elrufai wole soyinka not march to national assembly to make jona president

How many south easterners came out to make jona president or even southerners?
I'm too lazy to read ur comment. All I'm saying is that Jonathan made that statement because he knew buhari was only after the power n that buhari didn't have a plan on how to run the nation. Atiku wud probably have don beta, who knows

Gej was just right on the point. All he said in this quotation has all happened within 7 months.

I'm still asking God why did He gave us APC as alternative to PDP. APC is a Nigeria nightmare the biggest mistake in Nigeria history so far.

God pls uf it's our sins biko forgive APC is Nigeria doom. God have mercy on us. All what people were asking for then was a better CHANGE but all they got back now is *CHAIN*

Re: Was Ex-president Jonathan A Prophet When He Said This? by janco: 8:13pm On Feb 19, 2016
It takes courage to accept mistake and one trait of good leader is ability to carry others along.
GEJ was a very good leader, but unfortunately Nigerians prefare ruthless leaders who flog instead of patting on the back.

PMB will learn with time that you do not sail against the tide.
He wanted to be president or make the country ungovernable.
Now life has make him president..... he is still unable to make Nigeria "governorable"

For us Nigerians, I think its time we start appreciating what we have and make best use of the momment rather than cast blames on any one our thoughts reach out to.

....... Governing for six years with nothing to point at other than the strenghtning of the kidnapping sector and articulate vandalization of our wealth . Days of reckoning are at hand , kirikiri is waiting

It is so amazing how people fail to see with their eyes but grop in the figment of their own imaginations.

1.GEJ was corrupt but Fashiola commended his Road construction effort across the country.

2.GEJ was corrupt, yet Rotimi Amaechi applauded his extensive rail rehabilitation effort too.

3. GEJ was corrupt, yet he and his economic team managed inflation and held it down to a single digit all through his tenure.

4. GEJ was corrupt yet he sought to remove subsidy but the GURUS in power now cried wolf but did same in less than six months into power.

5.GEJ was corrupt, yet we had the fairest and freest election in Nigeria's history.

6.GEJ was corrupt yet we never had fuel scarcity for six years except during the dying days of his tenure when opposition politicised and sabotaged his clean record of fuel availability to paint him black.

7. GEJ was corrupt yet he passed freedom of information bill and allowed freedom of expression across social media platform without gaging any body's voice

8. GEJ was corrupt yet...... I can continue endlessly.

Let's remove sentiment and appreciate good works for once.

Only time will tell.

Not a prophet but a thief that knew what was coming. He didn't "see" he knew. He knew the damage they did to this country. Forex was flying up and down during elections like paper, now its scarce, demand is high, supply is low.
