Fashola Vindicates Jonathan by Phreshkid20(m): 12:54pm On Feb 13, 2018 |
As Fashola Vindicates Former President
Jonathan.
At various occasions since coming to power
on May 29, 2015, both President
Muhammadu Buhari and his lying parrot,
Lai Mohammed, have attempted to sell the
false narrative that the Jonathan
administration and the Peoples Democratic
Party, destroyed Nigeria’s economy and
handed over a collapsed polity and are the
reason for the current comatose condition
of the nation’s fiscal and financial systems.
For instance, on the 14th of August, 2017,
President Buhari, speaking through his
spokesman, Garba Shehu, said:
“With due respects to the former President
Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, these are the facts
about the economy you left behind, in case
you have forgotten.
I hope this will help to erase the wrong
statement credited to you at your party, the
PDP Convention at the Eagle Square last
weekend that you handed to President
Buhari a robustly healthy economy. Let me
start by reasserting an obvious statement,
which is that the President Muhammadu
Buhari administration was handed an
economy ravaged by years of
mismanagement and corruption.”
Again, lying Lai Mohammed had also as
recently as the 26th of January 2018, in an
interview with the Sun Newspaper, said as
follows:
“I think it will be tragedy for this country for
PDP to come back because they have not
even apologised to the nation for how they
had destroyed our economy, destroyed our
infrastructure, destroyed our quality, and so
far from their campaign, ask them how they
will do it better when they get there.”
However, in keeping with the principle that
no matter how far and fast falsehood has
traveled, it must eventually be overtaken by
truth, Babatunde Raji Fashola, the Minister
of Power, Works and Housing, has exposed
both his boss, President Buhari, and his
colleague, Lying Lai Mohammed, as liars
who will say anything, no matter how
untrue, to cling to power and demonize
former President Jonathan and the PDP.
Speaking on February 1, 2018 at a civil
society engagement workshop on the Power
Sector Recovery Programme in Abuja,
Fashola in trying to defend himself from
allegations of ineptitude as regards the
epileptic power supply in the country, ended
up vindicating both Dr. Goodluck Jonathan
and the PDP, albeit unintentionally.
At that event, Mr. Fashola said:
“We hear all our so-called experts who say
(non-availability of) power is why the
economy of Nigeria is not growing. That is
not factual and it is not correct. At the time
when we had less power in 2013 and 2014,
the economy of this country was growing at
seven per cent per annum.
We had less power then than we have now,
but the economy was growing.”
Nigerians can now see that Mr. Fashola, in a
Freudian slip, was made by God, to expose
the truth that his boss, his party and his
colleagues have been trying to suppress for
the past three years, namely that former
President Jonathan developed and grew
Nigeria’s economy at an unprecedented and
consistent growth rate of over 6% per
annum and handed over a thriving economy
that was projected by CNNMoney to be the
third fastest growing economy in the world
when Dr. Jonathan handed over power to
President Buhari.
Unfortunately, due to the ineptitude of the
Buhari administration, a booming economy
became an economy in recession in just one
year under the All Progressive Congress.
And this is not the only recent example of
the vindication of former President
Jonathan by the Buhari administration.
Only recently, lying Lai Mohammed
responded to the letter by former President
Olusegun Obasanjo by claiming that the
Buhari administration had increased the
nation’s foreign reserve from the $24 billion
it met it to $40 billion.
The question for Lai Mohammed is this:
From who did Buhari inherit the $24 billion?
From ghosts? From Killer Fulani herdsmen?
In light of the vindicating statements by Raji
Fashola, I hereby call on both President
Muhammadu Buhari and lying Lai
Mohammed to tender an unreserved
apology to former President Jonathan sad
the PDP and to henceforth commit to
returning Nigeria’s economy at least to the
state that they met it when Dr. Jonathan
handed over power to them on May 28,
2015. |
