I think Jonathan Lost Power because of the People he surrounded himself with, Let's compare this to Our Miss nairaland Contest, During the campaign , A neutral would think TWACI would win because of the people campaigning for her, a fan of TWACI even promised people Jobs in the Oil section, but when People started visiting the thread, they saw the faces of the contestants and the voted Tohpahz.
I Voted PDP during the Election, but now that the APC is victorious , I pray God should lead us, I Pray Buhari should do well, I pray God proof me wrong on Buhari.
undecided Reasons I kill people.

Couldn't make a point without my name shey? Its all good anyways cheesy. Glad I could help smiley.

[size=28pt]He was not prepared to be President.
He was incompetent.
His wife was the worst First Lady in the history of Nigeria since independence. She was the laughing stock of the rest of the world. And shamelessly unrepentant as a drama queen. [/size]

I did experience some

The NIS scam
Two of my family members did experience the Sure-P/FERMA task force scam
I have no light for the past two weeks




One positive thing I did experience was the dualization and total repair of the lagos-ibadan express road

I laugh!

Firstly, the NIS wasn't a scam! You were not tricked into it. Like a critical observant would notice, the expectations were just so enormous and took the organisers by surprise. If we go into details, we'd realised that just as the government is to be blamed, the individuals too would receive some blames too.

Then again, there was nothing like SURE-P/FERMA task force. People just want to deliberately get their fingers burnt. You do not pay to get a job. If someone offers you that opportunity, know it is a scam.

Thank God you acknowledged the Lagos-Ibadan dualisation project. Maybe it doesn't count to you as one area Jonathan used in taking us for granted!

The fuel scarcity witnessed last week was what characterized most of Obasanjo's eight years in office but Nigerians cannot remember those years anymore. Those who think Jonathan was the worst president in Nigeria either have short memories or too biased to be realistic. The elections have been won and lost. The loser acknowledged defeat and the winner is ready to be sworn in on Friday. Nigerians know where to place their past leaders and i think history will be fair to Jonathan. The epistle on why Jona lost power is no longer relevant as the man is on his way home already. Direct your advice to the winner so that CHANGE will be rooted in our land.

So sad that GEJ failed to leave his foot print in the sands of time. No legacy and what a wasted 5 or is it 6 years at the helm of affairs. Its so unbelievable that one can enjoy so much support and momentum, only to come crashing down like GEJ did.
There are lessons learn t. No politician is bigger than the people and at the time of reckoning, the people will decide. Any Party or Politician that does not make the people its/his focal point will come crashing down.

APC/ Buhari hope you will learn from PDP/GEJ mistakes. We supported you and we will not wast time to go against you if you start going the way of your predecessor. A word is enough for the wise!!!

The Summary:

The summary of this is that these unscrupulous uncontrollable/not easily controlled elements are:

1. Boko Haram, instituted by the North
2. Political thieves and cabals who decided to have a field day in looting the economy of Nigeria with impunity.
4. Breakdown of Law and order became a norm, school children (I still see that as a hoax) were kidnapped with impunity, bombs became likened to fire crackers and thrown about freely and guns became the order of the day.
3. Rising costs in everything.
4. Development that is quite invisible
5. Paty Goodluck's running mouth


The President on his part seemed too scared to take the reins of Government and handle them properly so he was booted out in no time!!

Sai Buhari!!

I won't trade insult with you the way you did

But tell me
If banks only open for skeletal service the way the did just this week
If airlines operator keeps cancelling their flight schedule
Tell me when GSM operators did shut some of their base stations like it happened at my end where two did shut their station
If there was no power to give light to people
And
No fuel to provide alternative.....



So tell me if that is not like about grounding the economy.


# I won't reply you if you trade insult again because I expect you to be civic


Sharrap there!

See who's talking about civility?

When by your flawed analysis, you're already insulting the sensibilities of informed Nigerians. Maybe you should re-read what you wrote just now.
Did Jonathan stop the importation of fuel? Besides was it PMS or diesel?

If the issue is just PMS, is diesel, kerosene and aviation fuel subsidised?

Maybe you can explain how he grounded the economy by stopping importation of fuel.

If people like you had allowed the removal of subsidy to scale through, government would not be in this dilemma. The thinking has always been that you do not always subsidise consumption because a time would come when you'd have reduced cash flow and that will impact negatively your productivity.

Now imagine if subsidy was removed in 2012...all those money used in paying for subsidy would have been used in offsetting salary expenses and other current obligations even now with reduced income. That's what companies with a sense of continuity do. But Nigeria is a public enterprise, so every nick and dre11 is a shareholder.

Don't talk about insult because I haven't insulted you. I don't think you want me to either.

What is all these silly hate campaign against GEJ all about?

Why don't you channel all your efforts on advising Buhari on how he will succeed?

Maybe I should remind you that:

- We still need to bring back our girls
- End bokoharam crisis in the North
- Provide Job for the teeming unemployed youths
- End fuel crisis and reduce the pump price of PMS to at least $40

What really cost him? Even the dumbest in this country know that mr Jonathan is not fit for a local government chairman not to talk of presidency. Go and check his records as state governor, many people re just born to be ordinary citizens. That is the category that mr Jonathan belong. I will not be surprised if nobody hears anything about him again as from May 30. Change is loading 99 percent

@ article

Pretty fair article, but this is dead wrong
....Princess Stella Oduah was eventually eased out of office but it was already an act too little – no prosecution – and too late. Seeing as it was apparent she had ordered two cars with N255mn of taxpayers’ money

It is Nigeria money, or oil money, but definitely not tax payers money
this is so evident with the fall of oil price were governors are not able to meet their obligations though these mythical tax payers still exist
in fact the money that government is borrowing is hinged on a hopeful future rise in the value of crude oil

I doubt that Saudi Arabia goes about speaking about a hypothetical tax payer's money
