Please pardon my brief answers, I am used to objectives question oooo'

Please make somebody give me cold pure water, no be sapele or otueke water oo. I am thirsty. No mind my English above, I am just an average English student.

There have been some shouting from minority members of the public saying that they will not VOTE for President Goodluck Jonathan because he is not a good man or did not achieve anything. Everyday, as the achievement of Jonathan is made public the more some of them are shouting that they may have judged him wrongly. Is Jonathan Really Bad?
1] Goodluck Jonathan signed FOI bill that Obasanjo refused to sign and you join then in saying that Goodluck is bad.

2] Goodluck approved N18,000 Minimum wage from N7,500 Which Obasanjo refused to sign and you say that Goodluck is bad and NYSC allowance from N7,500 to nearly approved N39,500, yet they say he is bad.

3] Goodluck dualized federal roads (about 25,000km) which Obasanjo (even in His Ogun State) and past Govts abandoned and you say Goodluck is bad.

4] The rail system is working now, Trains move from (Enugu - PH) (Lagos Kano) soon Maiduguri - PH with little budget But obasanjo Sunk in billions of dollars without result, other pasts leader ignored (Like Buhari) and you say that Goodluck is bad.

5] Goodluck has been conducting free and fair elections whereas the ones conducted under Obasanjo are Shameful and national disgrace yet you say Goodluck is bad.

6] Goodluck established 12 new universities, 9 in the North to improve learning and knowledge and increase the Jambites admission rate, yet you say that Goodluck is bad.

7] Goodluck established the Almajiri system for Northern abandoned street children and those deprived of education by their own people and you say Goodluck is bad.

8] Goodluck has been building dams and improving the country's power from 2500mW to 6,000MW - And successfully privatized the sector which many analyst believed is the best way to go and you joined them say that Goodluck is bad.

9] Agriculture have been revamped and for the first time in Nigerian history, Food prices came down during Christmas, instead of skyrocketing and you say that he is a bad President.

10] 2013 and 2014 was the Christmas in Nigeria, where Nigerian did not sleep in filling stations for 3 to 4days to get Petrol or 100s of people being roasted alive in attempts to get fuel in petrol stations, wickedly, you joined them to say that our God given President is not performing.

11] Airports are wearing world class looks and every zone has an International airport and you say Goodluck is bad.

12] This administration has employed more people in their 5 years in office than any other in the history of Nigeria [Via Agric, Energy sector, 3New Car Companies on ground and have "Made in Nigeria Vehicle" (Nissan., KIA, INNOSON) , 3,826 primary Health care Centers, Teaching Hospitals] SURE-P, YOUWIN and you say Goodluck is bad.

Now do you think that the weak or senile Buhari will perform magic, which he could not do when he was in his 40s, if you vote him? What did he do for Nigeria as Military Governor of North/East (Now poorest zone in Nigeria), Oil Minister, Head of state and PTF chairman. The answer is Nothing, Not even a Nursery school in any part of the country. What else do want from Jonathan? If you want power to return to your region by all means, Please wait till 2019 when Jonathan by God's grace may have repositioned Nigeria as progressing and prosperous Country. This Opportunity Will Not come to us again in the Next 100 years. Nigeria belong to all us. Buhari and his co-military boys are like beetles, they only Destroy and Never build.

GIVE JONATHAN THE BUILDER THE CHANCE TO COMPLETE THE TRANSFORMATION PROCESS

WILL THE STRANGE, GANG-UP BY THESE ARMY GENERALS WORK AGAINST PRESIDENT JONATHAN By Iyke Nwambie

Generals Ibrahim Babangida (IBB), Olusegun Obasanjo (OBJ) and Muhammadu Buhari(GMB) have remained daily names within the political-psyche of the Nigerian nation. They say what catches their fancy whenever they want to. They tell Nigerians who to vote for during every election year, and when they lose out in the "power-games" at Aso rock, they do a quick 360-degrees and begin to galvanize the "unthinking" portion of the Nigerian teeming masses against their former proteges.

In case you have forgotten, it was the likes of IBB who after telling us that Chief Moshood Abiola could not rule Nigeria due to reasons best known to him and his military cabal, chose to rehabilitate OBJ in an attempt to appease the overtly offended great people of Yorubaland. And when OBJ reneged on their "power-sharing" formula by going for a second term in office, IBB said: "...The north cannot put all their eggs in one basket like they did before..." Unfortunately for IBB, OBJ bulldozed his way through using all the appurtenances of incumbency to his advantage.

OBJ eventually pacified IBB by supporting the late Umaru Yar'Adua (after the Nigerian senate failed to amend the constitution for a third term in office). And within a couple of months of witnessing Yar'Adua's slow-but-determined leadership, it was obvious that IBB was the one calling the shots through President Yar'Adua (late) instead of OBJ. That obviously irked OBJ beyond words as he watched his much vaunted legacies disappear gradually through the new acts of President Yar' Adua. And when OBJ saw the opportunity to fight back, he did by telling Yar'Adua to quit if his health was failing him.

That act ignited a series of public reactions which led to the emergence of the incumbent President, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GEJ). GEJ interestingly, happens to be the very opposite of these Generals. He refused to interfere with the results of any elections which led to his party, PDP, loosing about four states in quick successions to the opposition parties, he refused to see politics as a "do-or-die" affair like OBJ once boasted, he maintained that his ambition was not worth the death of anyone unlike one of the Generals, General Muhammadu or Mohammed Buhari (I was told that they were both one and the same thing) who openly told every ear that cared to listen concerning what would happen if he failed to win through his "...blood of baboon..." speech.

Now, before you wander off on what the import of this submission is all about. I want you to know that it is all about the sudden re-grouping of these Generals for an all-time political offensive against what they have called "corruption in leadership." And in their school of thought, General Buhari is the one that can salvage the Nigerian system. Take for instance, when OBJ was asked about General Buhari's certificate saga, he said, "...Once a General, always a General...It is not Abati or Okupe...that will tell General Buhari what to do..." When he was reminded about General Buhari's inability to stop corruption in a small agency like the PTF (OBJ scrapped the PTF) which led to the embezzlement of over 25 billion naira under General Buhari's watch, OBJ said, "...Buhari was not liable for that..." What OBJ was trying to say was: "Yes, Buhari should not be blamed for that embezzlement because it was carried out by those under him in an agency he was directly the head...Yet, President Jonathan is the one that should account for the embezzlements in the different Local governments, State governments and Ministries carried out by those under him."

When the opinion of General Babangida was sought on who should lead Nigeria next, he said: "...We have a sense of 'espirit-de-corps' in the military..." When GMB visited him, he said, "...Old soldiers never die, they fade...You have not faded...The military will back you up...The Generals are for you..." When he was asked about the loyalty of the military to his claims..and the possibility of President Jonathan rigging the elections, he said, "...All the people in power today that you see, are boys to our boys...So, they will not rig the elections."

It is noteworthy that all these men are able to say all these "flip-flops" because of the gentle temperaments of President GEJ. Well, IBB should not worry about rigging the elections because GEJ has shown again and again that transparent elections can be carried out in Nigeria through his enviable records contrary to OBJ who once said, "...Even if Jesus Christ was was to conduct elections in Nigeria, that election will still be rigged..."

So, while Nigerians are listening to the words of these Generals, the question that will remain in the hearts and lips of "right-thinking-Nigerians" are:

1. Why must these men who ought to be enjoying their retirements with grace like General Gowon is doing, (having contributed immensely to the sub-optimal state of the Nigerian nation) be allowed to continue to dictate their selfish and short-sighted preferences to us?

2. What is the wisdom in voting for a Buhari who never showed strong leadership even as a Military head of state suddenly become the toast of these Generals?

3. Why should General Babangida who toppled General Buhari for incompetence be listened to at this time?

4. Does General Buhari understand a lick of what is going on in the world today?

5. How can Nigeria command the respect of the outside world with a Buhari who is better-known for entrusting leadership on his subordinates?

It is these posers and several others that led me to the conclusion that: Though, President Jonathan might not have scored 100 percent on all counts, he still towers far above a General Buhari who is still struggling to remember the correct names of his running mate.

May God bless Nigeria!
