im sure the same people that the jonathan people say are the 'cartel' stealing the subsidy money are the same people who are always with him ie femi otedola, aliko dangote etc.

I have always maintained that Jonathan is just as intelligent as his wife the only difference is he can read and write.

That is the way he should be looked at and it will make sense what is going on. some people have put him where he is so they can control the country.

@Beaf: I pray you are actually the person who I hope you are (one of the spies of the government sent to penetrate user forums to learn what the peole are daying and trying to defend their policies) if not then shame on you.

Anyways if you are ill tell you something to tell your handlers;

Judging by the way this illiterate in power is going, things are going to reach a crescendo very soon(not saying it is a bad thing for the people to revolt) but the unnecessary waste of lives and all which could easily have been avoided will be very very sad.

I know for a fact that  Nigerians are very very patient,resourceful and peaceful people who have learnt to cohabit together peacefully after all this while however these same Nigerians can also be the worst of the worst when they are pushed to the limit.

That limit is being is gradually being reached(i will say we are currently on 99.9%) and woe betide the nigga that will be in our way when we reach 100%.

The only thing Nigerians benefited from the crude oil (which has destroyed our development as a country educationally, culturally, financially,intellectually) was the subsidy on petrol and low taxes and we left everything else to be stolen by greedy bastards in power.

Now the same greedy bastards are not satisfied with what we have left them and have decided to eat more and have shifted to the only thing that has held Nigerians together.

Mark my words this is the beginning of the end or as they say the final day for the owner and the end for the thief.

Really I thought there was a West African treaty, my freaking passport says ECOWAS. Does this make sense to deport west african nationals when their passport will effectively say ECOWAS.

Is this stupidity on part of the person who signed Nigeria to the ECOWAS treaty or the Nigerians deporting people.

But his wife was, Same thing

This is my last post with regards to this issue.  I cant be wasting my time with some ignorant people who are busy defending a man who is busy counting his ill gotten loot with his family.

@Papido and others in this guys camp: Its so obvious that you guys cannot comprehend that this so called 'success' of this man is at your expense. once you cannot realize this there is a fundamental problem with you then.

There great heights communities can achieve by pooling their resources together to create industries for themselves.It is done in lots of countries such as India where rural women have created global industries(and i mean global) just by pooling their resources together and doing great things.

@papido so you have confirmed that your pastor is a fund manger with no beneficiaries but himself. At least he ploys the lucky few like yourself. Who is he accountable to for using all these church money to do business? At least dangote is not collecting money in the name of God to run his business.

Now tell me why can't all you ignorant people pool alll your resources together and do some business and share the dividends equally amongst yourself rather than giving this greedy pastor?

A long time ago the 'Oyinbos' realised that you could control the masses through something called religion and they came up with beautiful doctrines to control the masses effectively, has anyone ever compared the vast similarities between classical greek mythology ie Zeus, Hades , Hercules etc. especially how Hercules was conveived by a mortal woman and had to to so and so and so before he died an was made immortal blah blah blah. Anyway some lucky Nigerians stumbled on that concept and have used it to their good will which is what we see.

The human mind in it's simplistic form is similar to any other animal specie and with proper knowhow(can't find the exact word) can be tamed in submission. Anyways I'm not going to go on and on but as long as these arrested souls have hope of a better life to come(which actually satisfies the soul) then let's be happy for them.

I believe it is imperative we know what people think about this man so they camnnot come and give us ridiculous results at the end of the day.

Unfortunately for them this is a new world order with social networking as our weapon and only tool to know the truth.

Please post your comments on 'Who does Jonathan Goodluck think he is fooling' on facebook so we can count the real supporters of democracy and vice versa

Well there will be no banning or censorship on this real Facebook page. Lets see the real position of things.

Isnt it really insulting that Jonathan thinks he can use his facebook page to fool the Nigerian people especially the youth.

He pays some slowpoke to update the page and glorifies himself to high heavens yet democracy is being ridiculed as usual in Akwa ibom with no word from him.

Does he really think Nigerains are that daft(maybe he thinks everyone is as smart as his wife)?

There is a facebook page that is called 'Who does Jonathan Goodluck think he is fooling' and I want people to post their real comments and questions to Johnathan so we can really see what people think about this man.

I don't think u stand a chance of wining that case, you should blame your sponsor for giving u fake tax clearance, it doesn't matter who gave it to you.

I did not ask for your thoughts, I asked if anyone has first hand experience. if I required your thoughts I would have gone to ojuelegba or probably a beer parlour.

Has anyone ever appealed against the decision to refuse entry on grounds of fake tax clearance even of it was given to you by your sponsor. please advise as I intend to start the process myself.

WOW. I'm impressed how nairalanders have converted this story to a Christianity miracle story where nothing in the story suggests this.

It wasn't even mentioned a single prayer was made by the woman but she just did what she had to do. Unlike these nairalanders who would have requested their pastor was called before doing anything by when the baby would have passed away.

Ignorance and stupidity is a disease that has destroyed some people to the joy of pastors (especially the chubby highflying Nigerian ones)

Love is the greatest of all end of.

The reason why i love this thread is the poor guy(kele) is vindicated. Just by reading all the ignorant responses by some hungry sounding, myopic, (suffering and smiling) nigerians you will just see the guy is so spot on.

james ibori doesnt even live in VI. He lives in ajah towards VGC i dont know who the hell came up with this silly story.

Na wa o. As all these pastors chop all these Christians money for Niger. None of them fit show face for that side to offer simple support and solidarity. I pity all of una wey dey throwe una money to these people o, na only where them dey share money them dey, when wahala show face never. RCCG, Chris Oyakilome etc wat a farce

@cap28
if a "nigerian" and a "malian" applied for the same job in "Nigeria" I can bet my head off that the "nigerian" would have the highest chances of getting the job except if the "Malian" had something more to offer.
Unfortunately the UK is not your country so you need to offer something more.
Why do you think the Indians and the Chinese are propering more than the Blacks in the UK, well my friend their parents realised ages ago that just sending their children to free schools that africans cherish so much in the UK would only keep them confined in their hole and you know what they did they saved every penny and sent these kids to proper private schools, sent them to oxbridge and pronto works like magic they beat the status quo.

I have been promoted over a lot of white colleagues and its not because i feel i deserve it but i have something extra to offer, same shit goes on wherever you may be in this world try and offer something more.

the problem with us blacks is that we love blaming others for our problems but ourselves.

I would like to give my 2 pence worth on this thread. Like the story of blind men going to see the elephant and having different perspectives of what an elephant actually looked like , all were right in their own "views".
its so obvious what pafun thinks of the UK (which is very obvious). i bet he is one of those people who stay in places like peckham(no disrespect here), associates with people from this class of Nigerians living there and obviously he has never met a different league of Nigerians in places like Knightsbridge and Chelsea who are "holding things down" in top notch investment banks making 6 figures salaries plus bonuses etc.
if you look at his discription of what he call living it up in nigeria as well he thinks having a poultry farm is the shit when there are people doing major sturvs in Nigerian playing with bilions of doolars.

I would implore everyone to understand that peoples perspectives are different (and correct to themselves) so there is no point arguing with him.

16.250billion naira actually cant really ignore the .250 billion.

In this troubled period na im person buy this thing wey i fit buy for oshodi for 16 billion naira.

I smell a lot of envy from people who say stuff like they are going to do dirty jobs in the states Like there is no dirty jobs in Nigeria ill rather be cleaning streets in the States than sweeping eko bridge if i had the choice. How about oyinbo people from the UK migrating to places like Australia , NewZealand, Dubai etc everyday (check the stats).

There's nothing wrong with migrating to different countries, this is God's earth. The so called decent jobs in Nigeria e.g. bankers who are nothing but cashiers, marketers (which you dont need a degree for) is just a waste of time.

Abegi jo carry go. Ive got a Bsc and an Msc from Kings College London and i'll tell you what i was person to play the lottery when it opened up. Tufiaka

chagoury? hmmmm i wonder where ive heard dat name before

Why does being GAY have to be a sin. Ignorance is just displayed in this thread showing our backward and African mentality. Just as "twins were evil" or "albinos are this or that". Has anyone on this thread ever used their common sense (which is not common though) to reflect on this. (By the way i'm not gay)

if i were Etim i'll sue HiTV and the toyin guy for another N100 million for even taking that stance and sacking him.

With so much important things happening around us here in Lagos and The world in general i am dissapointed at the quality of posts on Nairaland. Im thinking of shifting somewhere else where there are more intellectual discussions and not the quality of bull, thats now on Nairaland.

Any flats to rent in lekki phase 1. let me know

To those who dont believe in fighting for justice,

see wetin small children (youths) did in Greece because of the police shooting a 15 year old boy we dey here dey talk english and we are being killed everyday. maybe we are the cause of our own sufferings, maybe

Its surprising that a country where citizens find it easy to shed blood for religion at the slightest provocation or "local government elections" would find it difficult to uproot these pilfering illiterates looting us dry.

I believe if the foreign media got involved (BBC, CNN and the likes) I'm sure the government would not do anything as stupid as shooting everyone."But if you dont try you dont know".

Thailand protesters manage to oust fraudulent government. Can that ever happen in Nigeria
"Thai anti-government protesters have agreed to end their occupation of Bangkok's airports, allowing thousands of stranded tourists to leave.

Passenger flights from the main international airport could resume as soon as 4 December, say correspondents.

Protests had shut down Thailand's two main airports for more than a week.

The deal follows a court ruling that forced Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat to step down over election fraud and disbanded his governing party. " (BBC)
