And since the Syrian president ddnt say that "most terrorists are syrians" as you have assumed, does that negate the fact that "you know that most syrians are terrorist", right?

How dd u reach that conclusion if I may ask? World media, rigtht?

The same world media sees most of us as criminals and the sooner we face the truth the better for us.

You can tattoo that hashtag on ur forehead if u like but go to foreign embassies and you wl understand what PMB is saying or even go abroad!

Political correctness wont get us anywhere mister!

#The truth is bitter

Nigerians abroad need to change that narrative .....

I stand with PMB cos he shoots without blinking!

omenka:
The fact he said so isn't even my problem, the problem is the people who liked the post. These guys are so damn emotional about everything and would file behind every remark aimed at insulting the president or Muslims generally. I've learnt to ignore their baseline foolishness.

Fact remains most of those tweeting on that hashtag are PDP supporters and do so not because of the statement itself but because of the person who made it. They twisted the original statement to suit their warped mindsets and made a feast out of it.

Imagine the same people agreeing with Kanu that Jesus is an idol!! Imagine an APC stalwart made that statement!! What else can't one expect of these guys??

Ebukaobi:
IPOB illiterates are not hard to spot

Can you imagine someone saying that most terrorists are from Syria?

And this IPOB is one of the people calling Buhari a dullard

Smh..

tuale4u:
That is not true. Most terrorists are not from syria. Many terrorist go to syria to fight. Many of them are foreigners not syrian

mrvitalis:
Do u mind that man.. .. I stopped taking serious long time ago... .
One thing I know is that Nigerians are the easiest to deceive... Just speak fine and look good
U have them in ur pocket

Why are people blowing hot air because a globally recognise and reputable medium(the Economist) tagged former president Goodluck Jonathan an ineffectual buffoon within the context of anti-corruption? Can we please for a few moment reflect our mind back to the statement of the Economist and tell ourselves whether or not it was true?

"The government(of Buhari) has cracked down on corruption, which had flourished under the previous president, Goodluck Jonathan, an ineffectual buffoon who let politicians and their cronies fill their pockets with impunity."
(The Economist 28/01/2016)
Who can claim that corruption didn't flourish under Jonathan administration? What happened to Princess Stella Oduah and her N260million bullet-proof car scam? What happened to Alison Madueke that sold off NNPC jet meant for use of petroleum minister but allegedly spent a whopping N10billion of tax-payers' money on charter jet while the former President refused to probe the issue and even shielded her from house of representative probe in 2014? What happened to the Alhaji Abdulrasheed Maina, the former chairman of the Pension Reform Task Team the recovered and re-looted billions of naira of our poor pensioners? What happened to Steven Orasanya the former head of service indicted for looting billions? What happened to the oil subsidy thieves, Alison Madueke and all those indicted by Mallam Nuhu Ribadu led Petroleum Revenue Special Task Force that was set-up by Jonathan's government in 2012? What happened to comrade Abba Moro, the former interior minister that sent young Nigerians to their early grave after fleecing each of them of their hard-earned N1000 in the name of immigration recruitment? How do we explain the fact that under Goodluck Jonathan, former governors from all parties took corruption to the zenith with ex-Gov Amaechi telling Nigerians that they steal because we don't stone them? What was his reaction? What happened to the $2.2billion cash for arms deal, and the re-looted Abacha $370million loot? Who gave Olisah Metuh N400 million? Didn't Jonathan agree that some cabals are taking advantage of subsidy (without bringing them to book)? Should we dismiss that also? Should we go on? Did corruption not thrive under Goodluck Jonathan's leadership at all level?

If we agree with the above then why should we fault the Economist when even Jonathan supporters agree that corruption thrived in the last administration even though they are quick to say "Buhari's men are not saints" (which of course is correct).

No Insult Intended...
An ineffectual buffoon is simply someone with odd or ridiculous behaviour that doesn't produce desired effect or doesn't meet expectation

If we are to be fair, we won't call the ineffectual buffoon tag an insult on Jonathan especially when putting the war against corruption into context like the Economist did. That he carries a humble demeanour or conceded defeat does not erode the fact that he was ineffective in tackling corruption, though his concession of defeat is worth commendation. The truth must be said. In fact, many, even among those that claim to be his supporters and those from his Ijaw ethnic group have at one time or the other tagged the former president clueless. I sympathise with Jonathan but this is a cross that he should be prepare to bear.

He is Not The First To Be Called A Buffoon
Let me also state that former president Goodluck Jonathan is not the only person nor the first to be tagged a buffoon. When British MP Sir Keir Starmer said “that(Donald Trump's behaviour) is not buffoonery, that is absolutely repugnant”, Americans didn't spit fire, neither did Republicans spat fire when British MP Tom Tugendhat called Trump an insane.

Goodluck Jonathan's sympathisers and foot solders should understand that the former president belongs to the past just like his predecessors in office. His deeds and misdeeds as President Jonathan(not Mr. Jonathan) will always be talked about just like we keep talking about those of Shehu Shagari, Sani Abacha, Gen IBB, Maj Gen Buhari, Chief Obasanjo, late Yar'adua etc. Whether for good or for bad, he/they are being remembered by what they have done and what they failed to do- President Muhammadu Buhari won't be an exception when he leaves power.






May God Bless Us All and Bless Nigeria

Progressive01:
I tell ya.

These Wailing Cankerworms are so funny. They can't construct a sentence without insulting the sitting president, but get all roughed up when the useless ex-president is pelted with as little as a bubble gum.

#Ineffectual Buffoons.

Why cant Catholic clergymen shut there mouth up and mind there soul winning business?

Cross River State governor, Prof. Ben Ayade, has said that he remains a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, who simply has a good working relationship with President Muhammadu Buhari for the good of the people of his state. Ayade, while fielding questions from newsmen at the Margaret Ekpo International Airport, Calabar, said that good governance should be the next step after election.

Standing5:
Wailers, breakfast is ready.
Jonathan's time at Bayelsa was always going to be a pointer to things to come as President but 'we' chose to vote him in still. Let them come brand this media trial and propaganda again.
