edogirl2: Oga Oronsaye is from Edo State. The man is a disgrace if these allegations are true.


The big issue now is, how do we wrestle Nigeria from this President?

A President whose inner circle includes big time fraudsters, alleged sponsors of terrorism, Niger Delta hoodlums etc


And to think that in a few months, millions of the same ordinary people who have suffered the most under Mr Jonathan's reigns will still queue in scorching sun to vote for Mr Jonathan, all because of tribal allegiance.

It beggars belief.

besty211: So damn true....Jonathan is a complete daft.

barcanista: Orosanya is a Jonathan ally... I am not surprised

He is the same guy that embarrassed himself in a National TV during the Ribadu Subsidy Report....

exxell: The kind money wey dey dissapear from this country everyday.... Nawa oo. Wouldnt be suprised if I hear that this country dissapears one day....

As an aside, JONATHAN IS A TOTAL FAILURE.... I WILL DEFEND MY COMMENT ANYTIME. UNDER HIM, SO MANY THINGS WENT WRONG. In a true democratic setting, Badluck Edewe Jonadumb doesnt have the capacity to rule a common street not talk of a great country like Nigeria. Because of him, people like Julius Agwu are now contemplating governing rivers state. Why not? Because they believe if an idiiot like badluck can make it, every dumbo can. His or her incapabilities not withstanding! Please, Just resign already.

Ilekokonit: What funding constraints is this Bstard of a President talking about After stealing Nigeria blind this piece of sheet of a President has the audacity to insult us by saying there are funding constraints.

qleap2all: What is settled?That #Corruption,unemployment,#impunity,divide nd rule,ethnicity,#insecurity,Kidnapping,,assault,#infrastructure should continue should continue in Nigeria?God forbid!
Let's pray for the Messiah

IYANGBALI: foooooooool

IYANGBALI: you are nothing but a fokn boot licker. Fok off my asss,you this polithievian e-rat. God punish you if you dare quote me again.

IYANGBALI: yinmu,moving the nation forward indeed. Mtcheeeeeeeew

overhypedsteve: bros the duty of every nations army is to defend its citizen and i still hold it that the nigerian army have failed in that capacity due to this things
1. Poor procurement regime.
2. Politicization of military positions.
3. Nepotism and tribalism.
4. Low moral due to poor officers welfare schemes.
5. Conservative operational doctrines
6. Lack of innovative procurement from the side of the leaders.

Feel free to add yours.

overhypedsteve: i wish you knew less then it would have been easier for me to help you know more, but its obvious that you don't know anything, so i am now going to bear the unfair burden of enlightening you a little. First of all i will like to tell you that i ve never fallen prey from any sort of propaganda, be it western or eastern, believe me my man i am fully aware of our ECOMOG victories, but you need to understand that things are constantly changing, we re no longer dealing with seleke boys militants that have cutlasses, dane guns, very few ak's and at the very best a pick up mounted GPMG, those days are gun my friend, what we re now seeing is a well organised, well planned and well equipped,militant force within our borders and we cant just apply the ecomog tactics here, are you trying to tell me that you do not know that the insurgent places IED's on known tracks used by troops convoys and to counter this our men need MRAP's which we only have few of, are you trying to tell me that the AAA guns being modified by boko haram for infantry use would not render any convoy of nigerian army hilux trucks useless without us even touching them, because the crazy thing about using those AAA for ground attack is that you ll have the advantage of attacking from a distance, the question still hiding in the mind of every military commentator is, why are we still using those light skinned hilux in a place as volatile as the NE, why not order more of the oshkot cat, the bigfoot, the VBL, and cobra's instead of allowing our troops to move around in death traps. We have weapons but we don't have enough for an attacking force, i am not even asking the army to buy humvees but if that come then glory be to God, and speaking of the politicians, yes i agree with you, those fat people have failed the nation greatly, they have purposely sat on funds that are supposed to be used in equipping our boys, and i keep repeating it that for everyone claiming that it is alright and the army is well equipped when the boys are in the frontline complaining, God will personally judge all of you. The army is well equipped in which country? In Nigeria here? We re equipped but not well equipped.

amiskurie: We have special forces already.
Why can't he equip our arm forces if truly he is committed.

bigtt76: Issorite ....same way the former Borno governor setup Boko Haram ....GEJ wan setup 'Special Forces' too ....less than 6 months to Presidential Elections .....God is watching on the new Samsung UHDTV

qleap2all: God is speaking,he that has ears let him hear.
How I wish these people can see!

cypha101: You guys better be careful, I don't think God is on GEJ's side.

IYANGBALI: The gods of the land are angry

Omotolu: God has rejected them for any other terms they are seeking election for.They have done wrongs to Nigeria and Nigerians.

Btruth: Evidence that God is against this government. "Mene mene .........!

Ipledge: The podium self know say dey won lie to Nigerian...the podium quickly do d needful

TAN - Thief Association of Nigeria

YoursGEJ: See as the title mention "escaped death" like say hired assassins storm the place.

sambiggzy: Alll talk and no action..... our military are gradually losing the war onc boko haram and we are still talking

Afroconnect: I think what the president is reffering to here is an elite commando unit.

The President should do more and let us see,too much talking especially when immediate results will not be seen is not good for a president,I hope plans for it,equipment,training and logistics are already under way...we need to kit our armed forces and arm special units with M15s and modern body armours with proper welfare-feeding and all they need to be in top physical and psycological conditions.

Mr President deal directly with Presidents defence ministers/chiefs of Nations-you should take charge of defence procurements so we are sure of where these trillions are going to.

amiskurie: GEJ rubbished our armed forces with these

leggo: But GEJ told us he knows who sponsors BH.. Is this another waste of money and time?

overhypedsteve: Hmm howmany special force unit are we going to have because of boko haram, why don't we just improve on the men we already have, give them the basic gears and superior firepower,(it should be noted that only rebels use AAA guns for infantry purpose, so all those asking us to buy the shilka SPAAG for BH should bow their head in shame)and airsupport.why waste scarce resource on another special force unit, when our soldiers in the front do not yet have the basic kits, like gloves, balaclavas,binoculars, NVG(night vision goggles. And no response plan for immediate air support. What do we need special forces for, do we not have them enough already, have the president provide for the simple need of our frontline boys like a ready medical helicopter team to evacuate injured or dead soldiers, but we keep hearing that the nigerian airforce are taking delivery of VIP helicopters, we should ask ourselves if the transportation of VIP is more important than the life of those dying to protect this nation. The presidents air fleet keep receiving new executive jets, but we do not have one single 4th generation fighter when our country is at war, our airmen are still forced to fly those flying coffins we call Alpha jets. We re backwards in all regards in military procurements, very backward. I think by now our defense budget should reflect the defence budget of a nation at war, but no it is only the food allowance of the president that is reflecting that. There is a big problem oh! Those of you guys who like talking about politics and who are related to some of this politician should please help me beg them to do the needful, arm our boys to the teeth(forget special obrigado force) kit them up till they are fat as pregnant women. And procure at least four AW101 to be given to the army airwing for mediovac uses to rescue the injured in battle. Then after that, come and meet me in my top supersecret underground nuclear bunker, let me give you a shopping list for airsupport aircraft and choppers. If after doing all this boko haram continue, then we go know say shekau na began pikin. By now Recce planes and drones should be all over the skies of maiduguri, once any unmarked, unrecognized and unknown suspicious convoy is sighted a response aircraft should be scrambled to bomb,blast, remove and eradicate it (you ask me why? What if its a civilian convoy well any civilian convoy still moving around in maiduguri at this time, even with the state of emergency needs to have heir head checked?). We cannot at this point in this battle be pretending to be a conservative military, arm our men up till they all look like Rambo.

manck2: it shows Jonathan dont understand what Terrorism is.. Boko haram is a rebellion army because it is capturing land space.

Arosa: Very good move from Gej but let me add, the selection of the men in this Brigade is key. They should do a complete background check on all of them.

Bsc: Na still d old ones go run join d nw one if salary make brain...shea na job xperience...if so, na same result we go get...pls reinforce d existing ones...

Bsc: Same result.... Ma uncle GEJ don confuse die..

Muscomide: Park well joor!! Father of the nation my foot! What father will fail to move heaven and earth to secure the release of his kidnapped daughter? What good father will allow his wife come out publicly to pour scorn on other mothers whose daughters have been abducted? What father will fail to visit a child's home to commiserate in the time of loss and sadness? What father blessed with very many children will set one child against the other to pursue a 'divide and rule' agenda? What father will standby idle for years doing nothing while his children are being slaughtered in their thousands in the North East? What father will fail to negotiate with his children's teachers for months and months, ignoring the impact this will have on their tertiary education? What loving father and mother will always opt to go abroad to Germany for first class medical care, leaving their own children to go to crap hospitals locally? What loving father lives in the opulence and splendour of 'Aso Rock' whilst his children live miserable lives outside without stable electricity, water, good roads, clean environment, good transportation, lack of infrastructure, etc? What honest father condones his children stealing?

In answer to the questions above, only a father who is a CLUELESS, DUMB FOOL! If the cap fits President Jonathan, he should wear it.

I am a cultured Nigerian. I have home training. I respect my elders. I approve this message.

KBrown: That is the sad situation in my country my dear friend.
To a sane mind, the explanation by the Government agents as posted by the OP is quite clear but the opposition would rather abuse the President on something that is clearly out of his control. They cannot claim they saw Modu Sheriff boarding the fight out of Nigeria with the President and have equally not told us how the President should have taken control in Chad by ordering the host President's friend to get lost. Surely, that would be against protocol. I'm just a concerned Nigeria, nobody should attack me!
