Since losing to incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari at the April 2015 presidential election, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan has been releasing tit-bits about the circumstances surrounding the loss.
In yet another revelation, Jonathan disclosed how he was advised by a sitting African leader not to accept the result of the election, a move that could have plunged Nigeria into chaos.
In an interview with The Sun, he said: “Let me tell you a story that will shock you. When the results of the elections were declared and I got almost 13 million votes, while the incumbent president won with over 15 million votes, I recall one African leader telling me that if I decided to leave office, it would only be because I must already be tired of remaining in office. The implication of that statement was that many other leaders in my position would have stayed put, but that is just not me. My place in governance was to do my best and quit and not to sit tight and destroy everything I had built. I believe that sometimes, one will have to make that kind of sacrifice in the interest of his people and nation that God had graciously allowed you to lead.”
Yorubasgreat: Yeah, you are a great priest, a super man of God..
We have heard all that before, but what is strange to us now is this hardship, This hunger, This joblessness, This tyranny, This terrorizm, This cluelessness, This Liar Muhafairytales, This blame game 'blame GEJ', This NA high handedness as witnessed in Zaria and parts of SE, This Budget Williwilli (disappear & re-appear), This gating of kwaruption (DasukiGate, EkitiGate, PickpocketGate) This BuhruBuhru Garagara of Bubu-de-Saint.
Please, Father could you now profess to him again this time personally that Election is now ''Technically" over and that the "Cordinated" chanji he promised is transforming us into Chaff..
Azeeza, happy birthday. May you live long to celebrate more. Didn't know about this. Maybe we'll publicize the next one more, if Allah preserve our lives.
Aufbauh: If Arc Namadi Sambo should have come from the land of the rising sun and be treated like this, the hell could have been let loose for comparative treatment. Endless references could have been made to 1984, 1945 and even how Herold spare the son of Benjamin and choose to go after the son of Joseph.
the only tribe that support corruption and corrupt officials in the whole world.
Don't tell BUHARI what to and what not; you have no moral ground to tell BUHARI that. It's on record that you hired thugs to beat up a j udge in your state. Infact, you did not allow INEC to do its job in the rigged election that brought you into office. Cast no stone, rascal!
The iPod youths who are famous for supporting criminals including Boko Haram , should know that whatever you do in your community stays right there. If you pollute it , it's ur own. Those cows in ND can continue.
@jerryteddy01 , change the title of the thread to: I didn't take anything from the government, I worked hard - gbolahan obanikoro . So the thread can enjoy the needed attention.
Somebody should tell koro that, after the last Abuja yam festival organized by the ineffectual-B , his successor, PMB is organising another one for national yam eaters like koro himself; but this BUHARI yam festival is in another form, people vomit the national yam they must have eaten during the last festival. Koro and his family should endeavour to take part in it.
AngryNigerian: Why can't people stop being careless & reckless on d road bikonu!!! Chaiii!!! May God protect me & my own!
the way people drive in the east, if you see them, you will be left in awe. Every Volvo and v-boot owner runs like he or she is asked by the chief priest to hit someone down for rituals and sacrifices.
