In this interview with SUCCESS NWOGU , a former Deputy Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Adeniyi Akintola, talks about the 2015 general elections, the Goodluck Jonathan Presidency and other issues.

What is your assessment of the performance of President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration?

Are you satisfied with what is happening in the country today? Power supply even instead many cities and towns in the country haven remained highly epileptic. We talk of corruption, it is high. For instance, have you not seen a SURE-P emblem or signpost on the Ogbomosho-Ilorin Road that was constructed under former President Olusegun Obasanjo? Somebody went and erected it there. Let us be truthful to ourselves. This country is under a heavy bondage of corruption. It is so glaring and thick in the eyes that you can’t cut it.
Do you need rocket science to know that the Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, should not have spent a day longer in office? Even
Mr. President should have used that to launder his own image and boost his image. He should have used that lady as an example.

Are you saying that Jonathan will not win in the South-West if he re-contests?

I have my doubts. It is beyond political issue. The anger of the South Westerners against the government is beyond political party. It is beyond All Progressives Congress or Peoples Democratic Party or Accord Party.
It is beyond that. It speaks for itself.

Crassus: why is it so hard for her to come out with and clear herself? why is this difficult to do? i still dont understand what she is waiting for

ba7man: Your Enugu Airport is crap.......Same with MMIA.

Just a visit to Oliver Thambo Airport will make you realize those Airports you're so proud of are Bus Stations with planes parked behind them.

ba7man: The only way she can silence the pesky SW media is if she publishes the Name of the school she got her M.B.A.

Spot the difference.......smh..

nku5: To be honest if the APC fields Utomi or Sullivan it will definitely split the votes in the SE. Though we know that the APC bigot template will NEVER allow them select an Igbo man

Olril18: see this man from an animal tribe oo...no wonder evribody run away from igbos because u are all cannibals!

Olril18: arindin,oponu,omo ale!!
u igbos loves living in illusion,thats why u will continue to be slaves till eternity.

Olril18: arindin..mumu!

ilugunboy: Jealous ke? When we are going to be flying straight into Alaigbo...we won't have to go through that dirty Lagos filled with dirty and amala & ewedu yaribas that still shytee inside nylon.

gurnam: Where? In Anamabra ? The campaign words used in Anamabra will be GEJ undoing in the SW.

Yorubas politicians will print fliers of GEJ smiling while Arthur Eze was saying those crazy words against Awolowo.

chukwudi44: He went and joined the most unpopular party in anambra and blew is chances.Believe me if he had contested under the labour or accord party he might have won.They way it is anambrarians will never vote for him under the banner of the APC

ketoprofen: Same way foreigners leave their lands flowing with honey and come to make profit in Nigeria.
Are igbos not everywhere in the world, what's all these about Lagos?
What abt those that left Ogun, ekiti, Oyo. to come and beg/tout in Lagos.
Are there not motor parks in Oyo, etc?
So much for human indices devt.
SE has two states in the cashless policy, what have u?

ilugunboy: You sure don't know the level of discontent with PDP in the SW except what you read ......

GEJ sitting down and smiling while Arthur Eze was ridiculing Awo is enough to kill of his dream completely in the SW....when the time comes...even Obanikoro will be helpless to win his Polling booth for PDP.

APC in SW surely is in possession of that hate speech....and will use it appropriately when the time comes.

geeez: Just like you were also concerned with OBJ's family affair when Iyabo wrote him a letter

I'm not gonna engage you in an argument on who is better between Amosun, Aregebsola (who are under four years in government) and a Chime (who is almost eight years in government)

All I can debate on are the human development indices in the state and the economies when they took over and now which I can tell that these two men whose names start with A are far ahead

As impressive as Chime's performance is, you left your native Ebonyi, passed through Enugu and came to trade in Lagos. So much for how well Chime's performance is attracting his kinsmen into his state

Clerverly: So says a sick man!

Pukkah: Of course yes!

The best governor in terms of distribution of Kia Picanto to numerous babes!

No other governor beats him in that area!

He's the best in the annals of out history!
