Since you said I was totally wrong in my statement anf as per the bolded part of your message, abeg kindly explain how GEJ 'developed' the east better than others before him?

Prove me wrong that this massive delusion is not real.
Buhari had ruled before, you eoukd have made a strong case by showing us his developmental antecedents in the east. Why should we choose an open bigot with no antecedent over friendly young president with a brighter future?

Just go and eat your zombie stipends in peace and quit the trash-talking trying to defend the indefensible.

Jesus! You dare to talk about the indefensible ?Someone who ruled for over 5 years without any tangible developmental achievement in the SE even with the overwhelming support he received from ndigbo and the massive oil revenues he enjoyed, your defense for such treachery is that he has a bright future? shocked shocked

Yet you choose to harshly castigate a Buhari who ruled for just 18 months in 1984?... Do I also need to remind you there was also an oil income crisis in 1983 when Buhari ruled then?

And you dare to talk about defending the indefensible?... This definitely has to be the height of delusion. Your case is pathetic.

Is it until you see the list before your tourist president starts Governing the Nationhuh
Nigerians want to know why you love him so much, although he is not an igbo man. Peherps he might be put forward as presidential candidate again to represent Igbos, If you are able to showcase his good deeds people will vote for him.

Mr man, you can twist it however you like. The East will never vote an open bigot which Buhari is. You guys in the north have liberal candidates, if you can't field them then you will have to find a way to win without Eastern votes and then preside over a divided country like buhari is currently struggling with.
The East will never support an open bigot. If somebody is highly pro-Igbo the north won't vote him but you expect us to vote a rabidly bigotted Buhari?
The east will never do that, that's why they are politically on high alert now.

To me, this is the most important thing Jonathan did for Igbos.

Unlike the previous sectional federal governments, Jonathan created business friendly policies that benefited everyone regardless of tribe and did not to follow the Nigerian tradition of frustrating Igbo success.

What Goodluck did for SEners and why they like him is more psychological than infrastructural.

1) During his campaign, he made Nigerians understood you could identify as Igbo and still be electable as president. This is what an Igbo, Odili, was afraid to do months before he Goodluck was thrown up.

2) Since after the war, the Igbo was avoided like leper from taking commanding position in the military. He ended it in a big way by appointing two Igbo at the same time to head the army and the Navy. The one in the army now has the record as the longest serving Army Chief (COAS) in Nigeria. He did exceptionally well in Boko Haram fight even as he took the credit of introducing the first indigenous Armoured personal carrier, Igirigi, to the force.

3) Goodluck recognised Ojukwu more than others before him. He commissioned a statue of the man with his military uniform and Browning rifle strapped to his back. Named an important road after him.

4) He lifted the post war air blockade of the SE to the world by gazzetting Enugu airport as International and making sure that a foreign airline lands DIRECTLY there before he left office.

5) He introduced Innoson technology into the realms of the Nigerian military apparatchik, Air force included.

6)Among other things not mentioned. He has BIG, non pretentious respect for Ndigbo and it was FULLY returned to him.
If that's all he did to get your support as an Igbo man, then you need to shore up your self esteem.

Recently the vice president pastor yemi Osibanjor accused xpresident Goodluck Jonathan and PDP of not constructing any brown new road in the whole of Nigeria for the six years he was in office.

The reason for this post is to create an avenue for Igbos, Ipodians or Biafran hopefuls, to debunk the vice president's statement and also elinghten other Nigerians who share thesame view as the VP.

Although I personally dislike xpresident Jonathan even before he became the president. I don't just believe Jonathan failed in the aspect of road I believe he failed in all ramification of governance.

But there is one question I always ask, but I have not been able to get a clear cut answer. The question is what did Goodluck Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan do in the South East in his six years as president that made them to adopt him as their son and keep praising and worshiping him as an hero?

I believe no man is an island of knowledge. There must be something Jonathan did that we don't kow about, but the Igbos know about. I don't believe all Igbos are foolish people to be supporting him if he did not do anything for them.

Let me start this trend by stating the only thing I kow that Jonathan did for the South East: Jonathan lunched the construction of the Second Niger Bridge

ok! IPOBS over to you please list the good things Jonanthan did in the South East
Let me summarized it for you: he said he is Azikiwe and added 'Ebele' to his other names. That move alone gave him a combined 11,000,000 votes the two times he contested for presidency. That was how he deceived the Igbos.

You keep blabbing the same thing over again and jumping around in pointless circles. The point of this thread is to point out what GEJ did for the SE in terms of infrastructural development in his 5+years presidency. You have not been able to say anything except repeating the same bright future bullcrap and also repeating how Buhari didnt do anything in his 18 months leadership. You compare 18months to 64months of mega high oil prices and you genuinely think you are making sense? And then you keep yapping about defending the indefensible?

Common sense is truly not common, I hail!

And yeah, nobody is begging for your votes; your votes were not needed to enthrone Buhari and your votes arent needed to keep him in power. It's a free world and everyone is allowed to support who they want to.

Will my people ever learn. The only time Enugu-onitsha express way received serious attention was during PTF. Yet my region has been within the corridor of power for 16 years of PDP lead but has nothing to show for it. What a shame! Igbo blame yourself not someone. I have always said it, I wish we have a "Jagaban" than the coalition of looters called leaders (both in senate and state Gov) or Biafruad. What we need as a nation is an honest political leader not Nnamdi Kalu that propagates hate speeches, still equate himself to mandela. Not Ike Ekweremadu who is only interested in gaining political power but could not attract one single FG project to my state Enugu. Nor Uwazurike who alleged to have defrauded some gullible youth all in the name of "Biafra" passport. What a pit. These set of leaders have made it look like having a regional development is a tall order. Today, just by one policy on forex some Igbo brothers a rain curses on PMB, while their brothers in Aba is smiling to the bank because the restriction is a blessing in disguise. How I wish the forex policy will stay longer maybe we will learn some lessons.
God bless my Igbo brethren!
God Bless PMB!!
God Bless Nigeria.

you made a lot of sence. It is more of psycology.

But it appears IPOBS are ashamed to state the facts that Jonathan helped them to boost their psycology. There is nothing to be ashame of
Learn how to spell first before talking of IPOBS. I'm personally sick of half baked pretenders like you who masquerade as intellectuals. When will this your frenzy and immaturity stop? Everything is either termed IPOB or some derogatory term.

Kids who can't spell casting aspersions on a whole tribe! What arrogance!!!

This is very serious, Igbos are one of the tribes I used to respect so much because of their repertoirs of intellectuals such as Ekweme, Andy Umba, Chukwuma Soludo, Ken Nnamani they are just too many to be mentioned, but none of them was able to decipher that Ebele and Azikiwe were not Jonathan's true names? and they allowed thier people to be deceived? This is mind boggling

The truth is that Igbos adopted Jonathan as one of their sons...

Though is your right to believe anything you so wish, but it won't change the fact.

and he happily attested his signature and submitted a padded budget? The action of not dictating a foul play in a document he submitted, reeks of incompetence.


Truth is he was in the know, then when Nigerians dictated the overblown budget, he then resorted to his normal blame game and looking for scapegoats. Either this or he is totally incompetent.

And you looked the other way when it was only Jonathan who knew the real meaning of 'Father Xmas' (a discriminatory one) by digging a tunnel, connecting Nigeria's money house to Mr. D., who gave generously to Metuh (N400 million), Falae (N100 million) and many of their friends too numerous to mention. You judge who's the incompetent here between one who promises punishment and one who claimed to be blind when all those were happening.
|
Worse was, people like Metuh had the effrontery to admit receipt of the money but said it won't be returned, when a not-so blind man caught him. You tell me, whether the looks of those cuffs on Metuh's hand could be defined as incompetence?
