At the commissioning of the first Almajiri school in Sokoto, the Sultan of Sokoto, the head of Muslims in Nigeria clearly said that Jonathan's action is unprecedented in the history of the north. The word unprecedented means something nobody has ever done before. Jonathan has built over 400 of these schools, free tuition , free meals , free books, free uniforms , free schoo bags etc. Similar to what Awo did for the south west.

Yet 90% of those against him are northerners.
The last University built in the north is the University of Agriculture Markurdi built 27 years ago by the Babangida regime.
From 1960 till 2010, the north had nine heads of state and only a total of nine federal universities was built during this period. Between 2010 and 2013, Jonathan has built nine federal universities in the north alone .

In 1982, President Shagari's government identified the prospects of a power plant in Zungeru Niger State. When Buhari kicked him out in 1983, no leader talked about Zungeru again .
Two years ago, President Jonathan kick started the 163 billion naira project. The spiral effect of the construction alone will affect the economy of 80% of those living within that environment positively.

The 3,050 MW Mambilla project in Taraba was conceived 32 years ago and all previous governments used it for campaign and it was just an avenue for fraud . Last year, President Jonathan provided one billion dollars for the project to commence .

In 2014, President Jonathan launched the Great Green Wall Initiative , a 100 billion naira regional afforestation program designed to create a green belt of that will prevent desert encroachment towards 11 northern states. The states covered in nigeria are Kebbi , Zamfara , gombe, Yobe, jigawa, adamawa, bauchi, katsina , Borno, sokoto and Kano .

The Abuja-Kaduna rail was started and completed by this administration . In a few months, people can actually live in Kaduna and work in Abuja.

Today, importers from Kano can haul their containers straight from Tin Can island to Kano, while exporters in the north can move their products from Kano to the sea port in lagos, by railway as Jonathan has revived the railways.

This is just a tip of numerous unprecedented projects carried out by Jonathan in the north. Yet the northern elders forum will come out strong to fight jonathan openly asking northerners not to vote him.
The opposition by the north against Jonathan is clearly not about performance but about tribalism and religion.

Let any northerner show me a northern president that has done more than these for the north.

I'm waiting to hear from my northern friends. No insults or name calling. Let's be logical and factual

Jonathan,,, because I'm supporting PDP, sardauna because I'm from north.. and proudly northern, that's don't believe in one Nigeria. when I become president even for one hour, I will remove out my home town/state from Nigeria, to be one state country. that will be my only agenda and I will resign before 60 seconds countdown.

Source?........politics is more than what did you do for me....simple..it was northern turn to rule!!!!

Gej played politics without the full spirit of a Christian and he has been punished for that.

And that is the problem GEJ had! Probably the reason why I don't like him.

My people say doing good for people that don't like you is like doing good for a cripple. When your done with the good deed, the cripple would still show you his yansh when leaving!

Believe me if GEJ had spent just half of the money he wasted in the north to upgrade the south, I would have glady died to see him get his 2nd tenure, even if it means setting all APC buildings and billboards ablaze!

But what do we the southerns get for his 6yrs in power? NOTHING!

blablabla.... this is the so called Amajiri school where pupils sit on the floor and you call it achievement




A state governor built over 500 standard schools with state of the art facilities like sick bay, well equipped computer/ict facilities, conference hall, football pitch, basket ball court, school farm, etc. whereas a president built few local schools for over 19 states and you say its achievement

look at what schools aught to look like

pls where are those schools on that picture? I believe they are not the nonfunctional schools built by Amaechi in rivers state?

And that was all you could find to support your almajiri school claims?
Anyway, for your education, muslims sit on the floor while praying and learning in islamic schools
