Lagosboy:
I voted GEJ and not PDP

Gbenge 77:
I think he is overwhelmed by the office.Remember he became the president by chance.

But he was President before being elected President. Try another excuse

Now he can't even say if his boys or terrorists bombed the Police Headquarters.

Nigerian police retracts 'suicide bomb' claim

The Associated Press

ABUJA, Nigeria -- Nigerian police say they no longer believe an attack last week on police headquarters was a suicide bomb.

National police spokesman Olusola Amore distributed a statement at a press conference Wednesday "correcting the report about the fact that it is (a) suicide bombing."

The statement said the investigation has not been concluded into the attack in the capital of Abuja that left at least two dead. Amore took no questions and gave no further details.

Police said shortly after Thursday's attack that it was a suicide bomb and said they suspected a radical Muslim sect locally known as Boko Haram. They said the bomber was among the dead.

A man claiming to speak for Boko Haram told the BBC and a local paper it was responsible. He did not say, however, if it was a suicide bomb.

Are you the poster or are you one of those criticizing the president, then let us know where he has failde you (abi na bad belle)

I started this thread, any problem with that?

What do you mean by "abi na bad belle"? Look something is wrong with Mr. President - he is not acting like one. He is not doing anything about the problems facing ordinary Nigerians - He is busy pleasing the PDP gang who are "grabbing and squeezing his balls".

He is standing by to expect the next problem, so that after days of silence he can visit and tell us the worst have not happened - including that bombs are going off like rain elsewhere.

NO ONE CAN HOLD CANDLE TO GEJ WHEN IT COMES TO BEING CLUELESS

That was cool - Nigeria have brains men - I wonder how we ended up in this condition?

btyfulmnd:
If you want to be critic, then let us know what you are criticizing him for then we can all see reasons with you but when your statement is vague, it becomes difficult to see where you are coming from.

Who are you referring to?

blacksta:
whether suicide bomber or not - one thing that is certain is the fact that a bomb went off at the police HQ

doesnt change anything

So you don't get it, they want to abandon the investigation. Or spin it. Maybe sack someone. Or pay someone else. Perhaps its one of them.

But simple, if we can be bombed on the most historic day of our history, a large naval ship disappear, the largest cake in the world disappeared here, you accepted a fake election results and called it an Act of God - then this will be swept under as fast as possible. Watin una go do?

Trust me once Jonathan and his boys-in-black find out we don't like this lie, they will try to cook up another.

Keep it coming guys - Yeye Dey Smell - Fresh Air - Enjoy.

This administration will keep shocking us here and there till person go faint. The list should have been ready before inauguration - Till now he is still shocking Nigerians and the world. Na woooo

federalist:
earthrealm (m) AND EGIFT,   GEJ is as I am speaking setting up a panel to probe u guys for treason and haul your Bottom to jail!!!  

LMFAO



And mind you, GEJ  is setting up panel to help in contituting the best cabinet that will solve  nigeria problem in just 2 months.

LOSERS, LEAVE EBELE ALONE.  HE IS GOD SENT TO SOLVE NIGERIA PROBLEM.

OR YOU GUY WANT TO FIGHT GOD??

Yeah. Soon he will setup a 10 man committee in July, that will advice him on how to setup a 50-women committee come August. In order to review all the panels he had set up in the past and fashion out ways to setup panels next year to gather fresh reports from all the panels the government have set up in the last 12year so that Goodluck can give Nigeria transformation and Fresh Air in 2014!

Oh since the time is not much by 2014, Oga Presido is asking Nigerians to re-elect him in 2015 or extend his term by just 2 yrs so he can bring all these transformation and Fresh Air in place to make Nigeria the world's most powerful country in 2030.

He is setting up another panel as we speak.

Nigeria is a headless organism.

" Presidency sets up panel on bomb blasts

The presidency has raised a secret committee to investigate last Thursday's bomb blast which rocked the Police Headquarters in Abuja, killing eight, wounding several others, and destroying 77 cars, a security source said yesterday.

The committee, which had its first sitting at the office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) at the presidential villa yesterday, will also probe all recent explosions around the country and recommend measures that could be taken to check the spate of bombings.

The development came after the presidency ordered the Inspector General of Police, Hafiz Ringim, to call off his planned press conference on the bombing scheduled for yesterday morning.

A police spokesperson, Olusola Amore, had said on Monday that Mr Ringim would address journalists to update Nigerians on the progress made in the investigations into the incident.

But a few minutes to the commencement of the event, Mr Ringim was summoned to the presidential villa, first to explain what information he planned to divulge to journalists, and later to be part of a high profile meeting where the decision to set up the inter-agency investigative panel was taken.

At the villa, the national security adviser, Owoeye Azazi, a retired General, reportedly upbraided Mr Ringim for attempting to brief the media on the incident without clearing from him and the president.""

@federalist: na you be the loser.

How many committees and panels have Jonathan setup and what became of them?
- Panel on Jos crises
- Panel to investigate who stole 50 years anniversary money
- Panel to investigate airport run-way contract money
- Panel for investigating second Niger bridge fund
- Panel to investigate Abuja bomb blasts
- One on World cup
- Another for NFF, NFA crisis

So many. Almost every month - anytime there is problem, he will not do a thing, he will setup a panel. What have they done? Who have been prosecuted? What improvement have we seen - Nothing - Yet billions are spent daily.

peaceland:
Hi All,
i think we should give him the element of the doubt. i did not vote for him; i like him but i also feel he's not as strong willed as required. however; this is a democracy - i am willing to give him till end of the year, then we should have a clear cut direction of where we are going.
this room is based on the believe i have that he's someone who likes to take his time - irrespective of what is going on around him; the little i know of Mr president he's not in an hurry to perform so why are we surprised - we all knew that from day 1!!!.
[b]so 6 months from now is okay. [/b]i am assuming he is not willing to hit the ground running; that he has not thought of a team to work with him since the campaign days; that he even does not have a working plan and would require some time to draft it. i am even willing to assume that he's not been in govt. see; i am willing to give him the element of the doubt for 6 months before making up my mind. i wish him and indeed all Nigerians the best of luck. we are in this together; courtesy of democracy  rule of numbers so the earlier we all join hands to make it work the better. lets not criticise him; he daily makes blunders but then he has been doing that before the election so its no longer big deal; lets offer creative advises until he fails consistently to take those advises. nice day

@ The Bold Part Above:
I hate when statements like the above are made - Jonathan have been president for nearly a 2 years now. Moreover he has been VP, Governor and deputy governor - he have been in the helms of things for 12yrs now. Just handed over to himself.

So what yeye 6 months trial period are you begging for?

chima ike:
Among all the presidential contestants, GEJ is the best, i better die than to cast my vote to a JIHADIST, or cast my vote to a man that believe in selective justice when he was the chairman of EFCC, or a man that that lost the governorship ticket to opposng party (PDP), showing that his people do not really like him.

Any day any time i will always cast my vote to GEJ, as long as other paties brings out dumb people as descibed above. Haters go to hell

Look at the "red" above, how did you come to that term for the person of Buhari - or are you still sucking the JonnySambo feeding bottle all day? I will like an answer if you can.

Bensonite:
OP,
The question should be what is wrong with you.You post rubbish and feel good abi.
The senate is on three weeks recess so it was impossible for the confirmation of already shortlisted ministers so get that right. He needs to get the right team to hit the ground running.

So in your little world you don't know the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria have the power to ask the Senate to cut short their break or convene an emergency session to screen and approve his list. Or he is afraid of disturbing our Senators when they are sleeping.

Simple, Oga Jonathan have no "balls". Imagine Nigeria was at war

violent:
Why does it have to be a "gang" "squeezing" his "balls" ?

Is it not possible to use a sentence that is less homo?

Jeel:
Notin is wrong with him

Then why is he so look warm? Absent (while standing there). And when he wants to act, he will forfeit his own plan/pledge and start issuing ultimatum, smooth-talking and inviting militants to dinner.

Why is he only interested in reacting? Why is he not rolling out his plan (working)? Who is he trying to please with his cabinet list - that up till now, he don't even know who will be there.

So what is wrong with him? Or is this the best we can always expect from him?

Personally I think someone or a gang are squeezing his balls - as if he must please them by all means.

If you ask me of President Jonathan, I will tell you he is the most fortunate person in Nigeria's political history. Even OBJ is not lucky as him.

But his performance is not encouraging at all. So I ask "What is wrong with him?". Please if you know anything that is hindering Mr President (even the remotest of all), do let us know - that way we may understand why he act the way he do. Hopefully may improve - for the good of our beloved country.

Over to you

egift:
A government that keeps staggering and sweet-talking the masses is a very useless one. No clear agenda to fix Nigeria.

Oh, he thought everyone will jump at it - and maybe check his Facebook before the examination is up! Keep fooling around.

Kobojunkie:
Na so we see am ooo!

violent:
^^

My people una see how these useless clowns (administration) have been toying with the life, hope and wealth of this nation.

When I hear GEJ and his gang in power talking of Master Power Plan, 10 megawatts, etc I fell like crying because they are at it again. They will soon come up with another scam

honeric01:
LWKMD - Buhari? EFCC chairman?

Is drinking acid not a better option for JEG?

Yes it is. Even adding a liquified Uranium may even amount to enjoyment for him.

But if he can get Buhari to accept that post, he may just be able to save Jonathan. I mean Buhari within a month can prosecute and jail the gang in PDP that are squeezing Oga Presido's balls.

mcgboye:
I didnt vote GEJ, so maybe d question wasnt directed at me. But at the risk of being pilloried and insulted, permit me to make my comments:
1. We all seem to have forgotten that Gej's reign started in 2009. So everyone calling for "time" should be mindful of this.
2. We still run d most expensive government in the world. If GEJ doesnt see anything wrong wit that, then we may as well pack shop and go to sleep
3. Isnt it laughable that his cabinet has not been formed, almost one month after handing over power to himself? Is it that difficult, or isnt that part of what should have been considered during his campaigning? If he cant handle such basic duty, should we realistically expect him to fix our problems?
4. Why do we allow ourselves to be fooled dat bombings, killings, riotings etc are problems of a part of this country (the North has always been a convenient scapegoat). Isnt that why we voted GEJ, to guarantee our safety. Why do we join him in blaming the opposition(BUHARI et al), instead of calling on him to act decisively and bring ALL perpetrators to book? Have we forgotten? Goodluck is our president, he's the one that is accountable to us, not Buhari. His is an executive position. Let him use his office and stop being a weakling.
5. There are no longer queues at our petrol stations, but kerosene now costs more than petrol n diesel! Isnt that more important to the average Nigerian?
6. Isnt there something that can be done by the executive arm to stop this apparent sharing of our money by legislators? Increasing their allowances at a time Nigerians are groaning is despicable, isnt it?
7. Power Generation, Arent we tired of talking about this? It's been one excuse after the other, from Obj to Yaradua and now GEJ. Endless empty promises. It's not really rocket science, is it? They all seem to use the same tactic, shifting the goal post.

8. The most important comment I have to make is, Could u just make your points without resulting to insults and name calling on nairaland, pls. Cos if you do, you're really no better than our chair-throwing legislators. This is how it all starts

^Gbam. Thank you mcgboye.

The way Oga Presido steers at Nigerian problems Sometimes I wonder if he have seen a ghost or someone is grabbing his balls.

Let GEJ handover the presidency to Buhari instead, what a great deal that would be for Nigerians.

There were reports on Monday that two policemen had been gunned down by pirates who operated along Ogu creek in Bayelsa State.

Our correspondent gathered that three other police officers were injured in what was described as a surprise attack on the police.

It was learnt that the incident occurred some distance from the Swali waterfront in the Yenagoa Local Government Area of the state.

The deceased policemen were said to be attached to the Marine Department of the Nigerian Police Force.

The officers were believed to be carrying out a routine patrol of the waterways when the pirates spotted and opened fire on them.

The patrol team, it was gathered, were ambushed by the hoodlums who reportedly did not give their victims room to defend themselves.

The remains of the killed police officers were said to have been deposited at the morgue in the Federal Medical Centre, Yenagoa.

Fresh Air for another four years, I can not believe that an intelligent man like Seun is pleased with mediocrity, my admiration for what he has achieved with Nairaland has gone down a notch, GEJ is just a front for those who want to loot the country till thy Kingdom come, he has no original idea and was not prepared for the job he has taken on.

Exactly. As terrible as it is, sometimes I even prefer he do nothing because any time he says or do something - I just feel like throwing up.

Imagine telling us the Police Hqt bombing is not that bad - WHY? - "Because bombing is taking place all over the world" - GEJ

[s]He has not closed down any newspaper or TV station or ordered a journalist to be beaten for criticizing him.[/s]

Tell me one newspaper that has criticized him. Internet is the only means left for Nigerians. The Press have eaten and wiped mouth.

He signed the FOI bill

Yes. I give him that. We all know that Buhari will sign that in less than a month in office.

He didn't block Bankole's arrest.

Don't embarrass GEJ by raising that point. Bankole single-handed defied the Nigerian Police Force, while Jonathan himself watched helplessly. And what have happened to the case again

His power sector plan is relatively realistic in its recognition of the need for private sector involvement.

Throw away that gossip. A plan he have been sitting on for over  a year and we are worst for it - while him and his gang are sharing Billions for "feasibility" studies

So this is how we are going to leave the goal posts in the pits so that GEJ will be credited with the highest score for doing absolutely nothing?

Eko Ile:
Why not just go ahead and list what he did better.

Supported. Oga Admin tell us point to point what he has accomplished so far.

Must be something he did specially for you and not for Nigerians in general.

Most likely. I remember when certain item make the Front Page - others don't. Anyway, lets wait for the points of what have been accomplished.

BTW, when is Oga Presido going to order Mama Nkechi to reduce her plate of food - since that's the technocratic economic sense he has left.

This is how they will keep smooth-talking and "rumour" us until we forget. Nothing will be done, once they trace it to one of them. Only innocent Nigerians will keep suffering.

What is the outcome of all the Jos killings, Bayelsa Bombings, Kidnappings, missing ship, missing Billions, Killing in all the Northern States, Abuja bombings, Bola Ige, Yarima case, Bankole's, etc.

Sorry to generalize - but most GEJ supporters are big hypocrites - Now his age is no problem because its not coming from the opposition, huooooo!

Even expectation and the goal posts have been lowered to the pits so that even at doing absolutely nothing he can score very high points!

He is smooth talking Nigeria. There are no more opponents to blame for his emptiness.

If Buhari was elected, am 90% of all corrupt politicians in Nigeria will have embarked on an emergency vacation to Europe. That alone will solve Nigeria's problems by half - ask Gov of Niger State

The thing we wanted in 2011 before the election is going to remain the top on our list in 2015

Is that the most pressing needs or they are now becoming blind and deaf to notice where it pains Nigerians.
