A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by monkeyleg: 1:38pm On Feb 03, 2011 |
This is a fair assessment on the Man Jonathan, But I am a bit worried about the following from Time magazine And then there's corruption. Jonathan may have got the Bayelsa governorship through his boss' alleged misdeeds, but he is hardly free of the biggest impediment to progress in Nigeria: corruption. The election that saw Yar'Adua and Jonathan win office was described by the E.U. Election Observation Mission to Nigeria as "not credible" due to "lack of transparency and evidence of fraud," adding it had "no confidence in the results." Jonathan's 2007 declaration of $2.4 million in assets during the campaign also raised questions about how an academic and public servant could earn so much. Jonathan's wife Patience was indicted by the anti-corruption Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for money laundering in 2007. "He has a lot of baggage from the past," says Musa Rafsanjani, head of the Zero Corruption lobby group. http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1964192,00.html Read more: http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1964192,00.html#ixzz1CtnAQ5D7 |

Dont mind beaf, They are probably having cabinet meeting in Aso rock on how to respond. These are serious questions that, will never get answered, but he would rather run around bad mouthing others. Let him respond to the suggestion that GEJ wealth is unexplained. We need answers if he want to be taken seriously, after all we know how much Prof's are paid. |

Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by Ikengawo: 8:14pm On Feb 03, 2011 |
I agree that this was very balanced. I want to see Nigerian journalism have this level of professionalism that's even rare in the US |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by monkeyleg: 8:23pm On Feb 03, 2011 |
@Beaf, You have been roasted this time around, political pygmy Answer Jonathan's 2007 declaration of $2.4 million in assets during the campaign also raised questions about how an academic and public servant could earn so much. Abi, even Times should take panadol? |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by ekubear1: 9:29pm On Feb 03, 2011 |
Goodthief Jonathan! No wonder his Bayelsa state is so backwards. He stole all the money that was supposed to be used to develop it. |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by johndoe200: 9:35pm On Feb 03, 2011 |
eku_bear: Maybe you should not speak on things that you don't know about. |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by Nobody: 10:58pm On Feb 03, 2011 |

Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by monkeyleg: 12:49pm On Feb 04, 2011 |
Still no congent answer from Beaf and co. |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by PapaBrowne(m): 7:42pm On Feb 04, 2011 |
monkeyleg:There is no better answer than the one given by Ribadu which Beaf has posted!! Ribadu's answer should serve as the last word on all these stupid beer parlor allegations for two straight reasons! 1) Ribadu wants Jonathan's job and should naturally use these to his advantage if they werew true! But no, he didn't because they are not true! 2)Ribadu knows better than any other Nigerian if these corruption allegations are true or not! He said They are not true!! Period!! |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by monkeyleg: 9:15pm On Feb 04, 2011 |
@Papabrowne, there is still the matter of where $2.4 milliom worht of assest came from? |
Re: A Balanced Write-up On Jonathan by tlops(m): 2:00pm On Feb 17, 2011 |
monkeyleg: it was "post declared", to cover for his future looting as a VP, had he known he would be president he would have declared in billions. |

Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Ph.D Posted to the web: 11/16/2005 6:42:44 PM PROFILE OF HIS EXCELLENCY GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN Ph.D. Dr.Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (see CV), is a man of great honour and outstanding integrity. He is true statesman, whose meritocracy, selfless services and exemplary leadership qualities bear eloquent testimonies to his professional and political successes His Excellency, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, a man with great quest for knowledge holds a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) Honours, University of Port Harcourt, Master of Science (M.Sc.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) from University of Port Harcourt respectively. He is seasoned administrator, an academic, a democrat, and an accomplished technocrat and indeed the Deputy Governor of Bayelsa State. Dr.Jonathan holds an Honorary Fellowship of the Nigeria Environmental Society (NES), Fellow of the Public Administrators of Nigeria (PAN), Fellow of the International Association of Impact Assessment (IAIA), Bona Fide Member Fisheries Society of Nigeria (FISON). awarded "Best Performing Deputy Governor", and conferred "Exemplary Leadership Quality and Good Governance Award". And recently, he was given an Honorary Award for Democracy and Good Governance. A native of Otuoke in Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State � Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan was born November 20th, 1957, to the family of Mr. and Mrs. Ebele Jonathan. He was amply endowed with intelligence, strength and tact right from childhood, even though his parents were of a humble social background. Young Goodluck started his primary education at St. Stephen Primary School (now State School � Otuoke) and later proceeded to St Michael Primary School � Oloibiri where he passed his First School Leaving Certificate honourably. In 1971, the young lad furthered his studies at Mater Dei High School � Imiringi and by 1975, he sat for the West African School Certificate and passed with flying colours. Goodluck Jonathan was identified to be a great child right from his tender age because of his attributes and rare disposition. No wonder, his paternal grand mother "nicknamed" him "Azikiwe" as a striking simile to the great Zik to connote another great Nigerian to come in the nearest future. Goodluck was appointed Class Prefect in class three in 1973, he was further appointed Secretary to the School Food Committee, because of his brilliant disposition. And in his class four and five, he was again appointed Masterson House Prefect while his fellow prefects unanimously elected him as Chairman of the Committee of Prefects. With his sparkling performance and enduring milieu, young Goodluck soon secured a job as a Preventive Officer in the Department of Customs and Excise from 1975 to 1977. However, because of his dogged quest for academic knowledge, Goodluck Jonathan promptly enrolled as a pioneer student in the department of Zoology at the newly established University of Port Harcourt, in 1977. He pursued his studies with impregnable zeal and by 1981 he graduated with a B.Sc. (Hons.) Second Class (Upper Division). As a Corper, he served Nigeria devotedly between 1981 and 1982 as a classroom teacher in Community Secondary School Iresi � Oyo State (now Osun State). After the mandatory service, Goodluck Jonathan was invited for a teaching appointment by the old Rivers State Civil Service Commission in 1982, he was however, appointed a Science Inspector of Education in the Ministry of Education because of his brilliant and intimidating performance at the interview. Dr. Goodluck Jonathan always knew that he had a bond with the academia that he cannot dispute. Hence, he soon left the mainstream Civil Service for the College of Education where he took up an appointment as an academic in the Department of Biology in November 1983. Again, because of his disciplined nature and dedication to duty, he was elected as the Representative of Congress in the Senior Staff Appointments and Promotions Committee. A position he held till he voluntarily left the College in 1993. To equip himself firmly ahead of the foresighted challenges, he enrolled again for a post graduate programme in the University of Port Harcourt. He bagged a well-deserved Master of Science (M.Sc.) Degree in Hydro-Biology and Fisheries Biology and Doctor of Philosophy in Zoology in 1985 and 1995 respectively. More so, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan later picked an appointment as an Assistant Director in the defunct Oil Mineral Producing Areas Development Commission (OMPADEC), in March 1993. He was deployed to the Directorate of Environmental Protection and Pollution Control where he was directing the affairs of the Environmental Protection Sub-Department. Dr. Jonathan is a member of various professional bodies, including the Fisheries Society of Nigeria (FISON), he is a Fellow of the International Association of Impact Assessment (IAIA), a Fellow of the Public Administrators of Nigeria (PAN), and he was also awarded the prestigious Honorary Fellowship of the Nigerian Environmental Society, following his stride�s contributions towards Environmental Management. Also, his dedication to service, eventful life devoted entirely to humanity and monumental achievements as an accomplished leader earned him the "Best Performing Deputy Governor Award in the Federation in 2002, by the Institute of Public Administration of Nigeria (IPAN). Similarly, the National Association of Women in Education Development further honoured him with the Award of "Exemplary Leadership Quality and Good Governance" in July 2003. In further recognition of his dedication to service, the NUJ Abuja Council conferred on him a prestigious Honorary Award for Democracy and Good Governance. |
