If your idea of Yoruba is the elite, then there's no need in discourse.

Like I always said Johnathan isn't a saint and righteousness is dead.

In other words you could not find a rebuttal or plausible deniability to hide behind!

[quote author=jomonic post=53199837]

Jonathan was not perfect. I agree there was corruption during his tenure. But don't make it look like his was an isolated case. There has been corruption in all previous governments from inception, including Obasanjo’s government. Obasanjo teamed up with renegades to kidnap a sitting governor in Anambra state. Am sure this is an act of benevolence in your eyes. There is also corruption in this Buharis government.

This is getting more interesting. So Because past governments were corrupt it was OK for Jonathan's govt to be corrupt too? Just try and read your post again and tell me If it makes sense.

Did we vote Jonathan in to continue with corruption or stop it? Inasmuch as I don't really want to ask, I'll have to ask How old are you? And honest I don't mean it as an insult.
You voted in someone hoping he will make a positive change and people are saying it s OK If he is corrupt after all others before him were corrupt. Smh.



So, your remark about sharing dollar is very insincere and I know it is the usual refrain to support a weak argument and a baseless and vengeful political stance.

Oh is that So? Why don't you answer the question. Did he share dollars or not during the election period? If you don't know why don't you do some research and stop being naive.



Jonathan stood head over hills in terms of bringing governance to all Nigerians. No other president has done that and am sure that was the problem he had with the Yoruba and Hausa / Fulani who think Nigeria belong to them. Nothing to do with corruption. The Yoruba felt slighted because they are accustomed to being spoon fed. A choice between Jonathan and Buhari is one between good and evil. Are you happy that the same person who is claims to fight corruption looks the other way when his clan commit genocide. Is that not a contradiction? Just keep deceiving yourself.

I was about to respond to this but I just sighed and decided to leave you with your particular delusions. Keep blaming the Yoruba people for your problems and frustrations.

The insult in your response makes no impression on me because I am aware it is a cultural thing for you and your people. One of you once told me in a friendly discussion that calling another a thief was perfectly OK in your culture. I guess it is in your DNA.

From your response, you are suggesting that it is very OK now we have an ethnic bigot as a president. One who benefitted from the same dollar sharing you accuse Jonathan of or should I say Naira. Perhaps sharing Naira is less crime than sharing dollar. How exactly was his election funded? I am sure you might have a hard time explaining this. Perhaps you do not know so I will not blame you.

Clear the log in your eyes before attending to the speck in the eyes of another. You guys are the biggest problems we have in Nigeria. You destroyed Nigeria through below par governance for over 50 years, destroyed institutions, destroyed infrastructure, stole the country blind and today want to heap blame on Jonathan for the paltry 6 years that he spent in office. You expected him to miraculously cure Nigeria of corruption. The corruption you bred and nurtured for over 50 years will disappear in just 6 years? Did you also expect things will get better now you have enthroned one of the key unrepentant players in that decadent culture? Are you happy we are now celebrating the killing of fellow citizens by Fulani herdsmen with the federal government responding via indifference. I just think you are an idiot. No insult intended. Just my surmising.

You must be mistaking me for someone else. No I don't come from the land of the rising sun So it isn't "a cultural thimg" like you're purporting.

Why don't you educate me with proof exactly How Buhari's campaign was funded since you have the documents with you. And whether he shared dollars or naira the point still remains that he shared our money which wasn't his to share, Unless of course you got a share which will explain why you can't see reason.

You are a bit slow aren't you? It's OK. Don't hate yourself for that. We all can't be logical thinkers.

Let's assume your wild assertions are true about us breeding corruption for the last 50years, can you tell us exactly How Mr Jonathan fought or made an attempt to fight corruption in the 6years he was President.

You went on to call 6years "paltry". How about we throw you in a cell in kirikiri maximum security prison for the next 6years and let's see If it is paltry. Pray tell me How 6 good years in the life of a nation is paltry. Do you have sense at all?

Considering the fact that in those same 6years you call paltry, Nigeria earned So much in foreign exchange from crude than all the other administration's before him going back 10years.
Yet he left less money than he met there in the national coffers. Even an olodo (dullard) like you should know Well enough to ask questions, where did all that money go to? Especially as there wasn't any infrastructural upgrade in the nation's landscape. Electricity remained abysmal and the dollar rose from 150 to 230 during his useless tenure. I guess you were still a foetus in the womb at this stage.
Heck the dumbfvck couldn't even equip our military to stop boko haram from killing citizens arbitrarily. We only saw an upsurge in military activities after mumu-in-chief postponed elections So as to gain some points.

He could only fool the fools. My hope is that one day y'all will recover your brains from the trash can and start using them. Trust me, no insults intended.

Just shows How clueless you are.

Obasanjo was roundly rejected by his people because they felt he wouldnt make a good president. They were right.

You don't know what drives the political ambition of Yorubas So don't pretend like you do.

Yours is driven by pecuniary gains and clannish interest. So It's not surprising that you are baffled with the way Yorubas play the game.

It's OK. It will take a long time for you guys to mature politically in the meanwhile you can resume your play in the kiddy pool.

You pointed running to your land for daily bread.Mr ,Yorubas are everywhere looking for their daily bread including Ghana.

Mr man you don’t give a dam about corruption so stop going there. Whether Jonathan fought corruption or not is not what you and your people are after. Your aim was to get rid of him and put Nigeria on the path to retrogression because it is only in retrogression and oppression of others that your own life give you some meaning. Your guys don’t want to compete with anybody. You want a Nigeria where injustice is sustained so you will continue having unfairly the better portion of the pie. Jonathan wouldn’t let you have it your own way hence your venomous hatred for him. Your way is of greed and injustice but Jonathan is a man with a fair mind who was on the part to set things right.

The replacement candidate you presented is a key player in the darkest parts of our narrative. Is it genocide, fratricide, corruption, hate, religious zealotry, name it. How do you expect progress from this individual? Have you not seen the outcome already? Yes, I blame Jonathan for not making people accountable for the parts they played in the 2011 post-election violence. Had he done that we will not be in the mess we are in today. I know idiots like you will take to the streets and demand from government not to do things to overheat the polity because your own person is involved. Idiots!!! I also blame him for not beaming the searchlight closer on the Halliburton scandal. I am sure that many politicians from your place who imagine themselves untouchable will be in jail today and Nigeria will be a better place for it.

So stop this your idle talk about corruption thriving under Jonathan or that he did not do anything about the corrupt system he inherited. You are not in any moral position to accuse anybody of corruption. You guys have done heinous things and should keep your dirty mouth shut.
