Jonathan As President, Peter Obi As Prime Minister, 4 Years by Slimani(op): 10:01am On Sep 30, 2025
Peter Obi claims that he needs only 4 years to fix things in the country. But he's not constitutionally bound to 4 years.

Goodluck Jonathan seems interested in the presidency, and is constitutionally bound to do a single term of 4 years.

As an obedient, I believe both of them can work together to complete the remaining 4 years of the south and make the country work once and for all.

Jonathan will be the President on paper, with a vibrant vice president from the North. But Peter Obi will be the coordinator of ministers and have the freedom to make decisions together with the president.

After 4 years, they hand over to the north.

This way, everybody gets what they want. A win-win for all parties.

Jittery about the joke you put up there? I don't know when Nigeria return back to parliamentary form of government to have a prime minister.

Re: Jonathan As President, Peter Obi As Prime Minister, 4 Years by SmartPolician:
Jonathan and Obi cannot share the same political ideals. Obi is a man who believes in self-discipline and doing the right things as the role model so that others can watch and do the same. Obi is a man who believes in connecting with the people; he visits places unannounced to see things for himself. He believes in significantly cutting the cost of governance to save up money for the country.

Unfortunately, Jonathan doesn't represent any of those things because we have seen him before. If Obi works under Jonathan, he will stifle Obi because he cannot take instructions from Obi.

One reason that Americans will never forget Barack Obama today is that he's apparently the only president in the history of America who comes to work in the morning, leaves the White House, gets into the streets (coffee shops, bars and eateries in Washington DC) and starts having conversations with ordinary people just to get first-hand information about what they think about his government and what he should do differently.

Some people wept the first day they saw their president walking down the streets of Washington DC shaking hands with everyone. In a world where presidents have an elite leadership style, it was strange!

That's the kind of person Obi is as he gave Senior Prefects his direct contact to phone him and give him updates on status of projects in their schools. That behaviour has a way of making people to love their country and build national cohesion. That's the kind of man Jonathan or any other presidential candidate we have in today's Nigeria can never be.

You see, if Obi works under Jonathan, he will kill Obi's plans for bringing about sweeping reforms in the country. I just don't support Obi out of blind love; I know he represents and inspires what Nigeria needs to bond, develop and heal.

we need strong institutions not individuals

We need strong and bold individuals to build strong institutions. This combination will help us see the true intention of their leadership, as they only need 4 years and will have no incentive to please anybody for re-election. They'll either get it right or get it wrong.

That's a different scenario. The others were appointed as ministers under GEJ. However, in this arrangement, there will be a sort of power-allocation agreement were Peter Obi would coordinate the government under GEJ just like how Abba Kyari was under Buhari.

GEJ will just be there to ensure that their government can only be constitutionally valid for only 4 years, which is what Peter Obi has claimed that he wants.

So, Peter Obi would not just be a minister like NOI or Adesina. He would be a power-wielding government official who can sack and appoint ministers and monitor their performances and that of other government agencies.
