The same GEJ who has sworn that elections will not hold in the North so that he can win the election is now acting as a mediator? Peace maker? Pastor? Minister of peace affair??

I think Mr. President can do better than this by making statements that befit his position rather than uttering this kind of defamatory statements that have potential of heating up already heated polity.

This is a pure liver, he never used the word touts,he said motor park people.

I read to a point and just couldn't continue. Did GEJ forget that democracy is about good governance?. I remember when Oby Ezekwesili challenged him and his band of inept loons to a debate how they shunned her as if she had the Ebola virus. Now he's coming here and saying all sorts of things pleasing to his ears.

Seriously how come you find GEJ in the midst of christian religious leaders eh? First Oritsejafor, then Adeboye, Oyedepo, now Kukah!. I wonder when he will visit Tunde Bakare?.

Just like GEJ mentioned in his statement " democracy is not about quarreling like motor touts" Oby Ezekwesili challenged Him like a tout and he being a gentleman did not respond.
Re: Democracy Is Not About Quarrelling Like Motor Park Touts – Jonathan by thegoodjoehunt3(m):
I guess it is political maturity when allies of the President disrupted proceedings in the Rivers State House of Assembly and staged a phantom impeachment of the speaker of the house. Or, the locking Tambuwal out of the National house of Assembly.

A Phd holder will never refuse a challenge, especially when his credibility is at stake.

GEJ needs to attend an orientation camp or polishing school for "Public Speaking" for public office holders.

His adjectives and phrases are too basic and crude for the Office he holds.

However, I think Okupe, Abati and Reno require the advice much more than any other stakeholder in the political circle!
Re: Democracy Is Not About Quarrelling Like Motor Park Touts – Jonathan by Nobody: 7:09am On Dec 10, 2014
President Goodluck Jonathan
on Tuesday called on politicians to
shun “ceaseless quarrelling” and
engage in robust political debates
that would strengthen the country’s
democracy
and in d end of all this he'll still send Abati to quarrell on his behalf grin
Re: Democracy Is Not About Quarrelling Like Motor Park Touts – Jonathan by Vado(m): 7:12am On Dec 10, 2014
Ironic how he's advocating for robust political debates now when he chickened out of the last pre-election presidential debate.

“I think we are over defining our democracy today by quarreling as if democracy is about competitors quarreling just like motor park workers,” he said.
GEJ should not start a war with NURTW

I think mr president is the number one culprit of what he has said. Mr president, his wife and cronies are busy fighting every perceived political enemies here and there. Whether the person is within their own party, the pdp or not they don't care.

Jonathan the evil one who has been quarrelling against the future and existence of Nigeria by indirectly and directly dividing the nation by his bigotic attitude and reactions to issues, now preaching about quarrelling. May God not only punish you, but embarrass you come 2015.

GEJ wants politics to be played in his own term and desired tempo!
GEJ got smooth ride to Aso Rock, thought everything else will be smooth also- NO! You're wrong Mr President.
Touts have been playing politics since time immemory. GEJ take your Bible and read books of kings. Oppositions are always existing either another kingdom or within your kingdom. MR PRESIDENT, IF YOU ARE TOO WEAK TO PLAY THIS GAME- PLS QUIT!!!
Obama was called antichrist, gay, weak, even recently his family was verbally attacked- Obama did not call anyone touts or America democracy tout-like. All over the world opposition always attack incumbent govt.
GEJ IS TRUELY ZOOLOGIST AND HE MUST HAVE SPENT MOST OF HIS TIME WATCHING NAT GEO WILD. WHERE LION ROARS AND OTHER ANIMALS RUN FOR SHELTER. WAKE UP!
THIS IS HUMAN KINGDOM NOT ANIMAL KINGDOM.

I'm afraid until we delibrately phase out those set of politicians who have bn in the corridors of power since lord lugard entered nigeria, we'l stil have to deal with Gate Climbers and Motor Park politicians

Has our nation ever been together since after the civil war? Our people use to say that "Nwata choba nke ya o buru ajo nwa" If there is any tribe that pratice one Nigeria, is the Ibos, they are the only people invest outside the ibo land and yet they have not been treated with equity, simply that Gej becomes the president of this country those who think they are born to rule, power is their property are now complaining.
God did not purnish obasanjo who got the opportunity to reposition Nigeria to its glorious state but fail to but use the opportunity to enriched himself and now he is here and there writing letters and launching books. Mind you beware of what you say and never curse your leader, God put him there and he is not sleeping. He is watching him and one day, he will surely hear the cry of his people and intervene.

He understands, he knows democracy should drive issues based politics, constructive criticism, proffering superior suggestipns on collective issues.

It is not about tearing the existing structure down to set up a new one, it is consolidating on current and existing gains

The kind of politics played by the opposition in Nigeria is the worst form of politics. They are all after killing the current govt yet they have no superior suggestions to the issues bedevilling this country.

APC and their paid online agents are just touts.
You point s beclouded by sentiment. Let me ask u a fewquestion oms .
1. Is the invasion of the national assembly democratic?
2. Is the withdrawal of the police attachee of the speaker without a court pronouncement democratic
3. Is nyesom wike in apc
4. Is 16 greater than 19 democratic or 7 > 19 or 5 > 26 in rivers democratic?
5. Is it democratic for the wife of the president ot hold meetings with service chiefs and other govt workers.
6. What will you say about The presidential pardon and paddy paddy party man withdrawal of curryption cases against some of his friends.
7. Is doyin okupe in apc

When u heat up the polity thru ur action or inaction then turn around to say pple quarel like agberos what was he expecting. For ur info quareling is a part of democracy. Hilary clinton and barrack obama quareld severally during the debates leading to democrat prumaries which obama eventually won.
In a country like nigeria where all the federal institutions like the police and military, are in d pocket of the pesident what do u expect the pple to do.

Tells better about PDP who puts all the blame on APC right? Is the current government consolidating? Are the existing structures good enough? Is the present government building or destroying? This are many more are questions we need to answer first before we discuss the issues you raised.
