The dullard is a confirmed baba Promise & FAIL on all levels.

Firefire:
I am really worried about the increasing death toll...

Buhari said: “If you elect me as the President of Nigeria on February 14 (now March 28), I am assuring you that our government will chase Boko Haram out of Nigeria within two months because it is the responsibility of any reasonable government to secure the lives and property of its citizens.”

Ngedo:
We prefer our big brother Britain to assist us in the fight against Boko Haram but not to take over the fight.
By this I mean show us how to get the Chibok girls. ie complement our effort

Regardless of who gets to rescue the girls...... the end goal is to rescue them..... you don't play with the life of people like this

And am sure if one of the chibok girls is your family member or GEJ sister or daughter you wouldn't be saying this trash

There is no excuse for mediocrity weakness and clear disregard for human life

Lol story . The British got involved and discovered it was a scam and backed out quietly.

The dullard and those who packaged him in the Association of ProgreTHIEF Criminals, APC are all bloody scammers and corrupt rogues.
I pity the zonebees who believed their promises.

(1) How many billions of Naira went missing during Jonathan Regime?
(2) Jonathan made us to depend solemnly on Oil waving out the Agricultural sector (there was allocation made for it then but it was embezzled under his watch)
(3) Name one tangible project that was completed here (Niger Delta) during his regime.
(4) the billions of Naira embezzled under his watch would have been used for so many projects in the country which you would have benefited too.
(6) He supported corruption as a leaderleader with his famous quote "Corruption is not a crime"

boostdom:
Universal truth is not measured in mass appeal. With the benefit of hindsight, we can begin to examine this case more objectively.

The Governor of Borno state-Shettima, ignored security reports and counsels from the Federal Govt and WAEC about possible security threat and why the exam should not hold particularly in Chibok. WAEC have shown the correspondences to this fact. But this man as the Chief Security Officer ignored these warnings and promised security for the girls. He betrayed the girls by failing to heed warnings and by allowing the exam proceed without security. He was a serving Governor and couldn't be prosecuted. https://www.thecable.ng/shettima-set-chibok-girls-says-fani-kayode

Now, this same man rather than communicate with the higher ups about the kidnap decided to keep quiet. His reasoning? He believed the President would have been briefed. By whom? By security agencies OUTSIDE his state. Or perhaps he was waiting for the President to call him first. http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/201163-i-not-call-jonathan-chibok-girls-abducted-boko-haram-borno-governor-shettima.html

Based on this lethargy from the CSO of the state, it would be rational to assume probable cause for the President to proceed cautiously. It is pertinent to point out that coincidentally, the Governor was from the opposition party.

The agreement signed with the US, UK and France was for them to provide additional intelligence services and platform and the Nigerian security services will handle the intrusion. But these countries, particularly the UK didn't want that. They cited Nigerian military human rights record and wouldn't even provide the required platform. According to a former British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Dr Andrew Pocock disclosed that both the British and United States governments knew where some of the Chibok schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram members were but refused to help or share that information. http://dailypost.ng/2016/03/21/uk-us-governments-knew-location-of-chibok-girls-but-refused-to-rescue-them-ex-british-high-commissioner/

As much as this was an emotional issue, it was also one of national importance. It's hard trusting your partners if they won't keep their end of a treaty, won't provide platform and additional intelligence service and glaring refusal to rescue when they had the chance.

thanks for the insightful accounts of the incident

fatymore:
Enough of all this blame game.. Let Jonathan rest in peace

..... ( Rest in Peace ) ke

IS HE DEAD ( GEJ )

When Dasuki was arrested he uses his mouth to say he played a major role to help APC to power. A reason why I don't think of his persecution twice. He and many around GEJ just betrayed him misled him and stabbed him in the back. Was it GEJ that made the decision? When he called for a state of emergency when Boko boys were running wild in some north east many northern senators kicked against the proper implementation. Instead of military administration in the state the incompetent anti GEJ governors were allowed to be in place by those against GEJ ruling successfully. Karma

DabELLs:
Jonathan and his wife are professional thieves too... You forgot to add that...

Unlike Buhari and Aisha, who are saints.
Lol.

He is the reason why we are where we are today.
No matter what, I won't blame PMB for anything.

He is also the reason why your vegetable president is confined to a British hospital.

Mr Man. May your family members never go through what those girls and their families went through.

Chibike girls and even him stopping d boko Haram killings he has not being able to do anything . The present govt are filled with lies and fake promises .

May we never be rule like the ilks of Jonathan again.

Gullible clueless man...any man that cant rule over his wife should never rule a country

discusant:
Oyibo still campaigning for their ATM - Nigeria.
Whenever Aboki is in power, Oyibo draws crude oil hardly unaccounted for, pays peanuts to Aboki government.


Since Buhari became president, why has Oyibo not come with their magic armed forces to free the Chibok girls?

Because they are magicians now, dey will just magically waive their wand and the girls will appear .

thesicilian:

the FG as already shown us evidence the girls were kidnapped,what's your proof they weren't?

We were told by US surveillance that no girls were sighted. How come with this clueless blame
President Buhari and organisation of BBOG should bring back all the Boko haram's victims.

fatymore:
Enough of all this blame game.. Let Jonathan rest in peace

But God knows how to punish him for all the crime he commit against us.

APC take your responsibilities

Do we really need an expert to tell us that this story is false?

Do you really think a country with its own sovereignty will allow such an operation in its land without taking the lead while others provide support?

That is how Africans are been bullied all over the world. Where we can go to their country and be called immigrants but when they come here they are expatriates.

any Nigerian born of a woman who don't know the truth you just told us is a deranged bastard!.

Some of these foreign revelations are funny to say the least. Why didn't they release this information then that they wanted to rescue the girls and the FGN refused? The more you look the less you see in this unfortunate Chibok saga.

tdayof:
Odunayaw what's your take on this?


To me, the British haven't had a good record of conducting hostage operations in Africa. Their last in Nigeria led to the death of the two hostages involved.

Irredeemably thoughtless...!

British armed forces offered to attempt to rescue nearly 300 Nigerian schoolgirls kidnapped by the Islamist militant group Boko Haram, but were rebuffed by Goodluck Jonathan, Nigeria’s president at the time, the Observer has learned.

In a mission named Operation Turus, the RAF conducted air reconnaissance over northern Nigeria for several months, following the kidnapping of 276 girls from the town of Chibok in April 2014. “The girls were located in the first few weeks of the RAF mission,” a source involved in Operation Turus told the Observer. “We offered to rescue them, but the Nigerian government declined.”


The girls were then tracked by the aircraft as they were dispersed into progressively smaller groups over the following months, the source added.

Chibok is located in Nigeria’s north-eastern Borno state. Today 195 of the girls are still missing. Those who have managed to escape from their kidnappers have told of a life of torture, enslavement, rape, and forced marriages in captivity.

Notes from meetings between UK and Nigerian officials, obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, also suggest that Nigeria shunned international offers to rescue the girls. While Nigeria welcomed an aid package and assistance from the US, the UK and France in looking for the girls, it viewed any action to be taken against kidnapping as a “national issue”.

“Nigeria’s intelligence and military services must solve the ultimate problem,” said Jonathan in a meeting with the UK’s then Africa minister, Mark Simmonds, on 15 May 2014.


A document summarising a meeting in Abuja in September 2014 between Nigeria’s national security adviser and James Duddridge MP, former under-secretary of state at the Foreign Office, shows Operation Turus had advanced to the point where rescue options were being discussed. Minutes from a meeting the following month between Major-General James Chiswell and Jonathan hinted at the frustration felt by those trying to prompt some action from Nigeria.

“[President] Jonathan was still focused on ‘platforms’. General Chiswell said again we could offer advice on what equipment might make sense and how weapon systems might be best deployed,” the October 2014 document stated.

The Nigerian government did not respond to a request for comment. The Foreign Office said: “We wouldn’t comment on specific operational details, which are a matter for the Nigerian government and military.”

Jonathan has drawn criticism at home and abroad for a lack of action and perceived apathy over the kidnappings. The government was slow to mount any response in the weeks after the girls were taken. The governor of Borno, Kashim Shettima, also publicly criticised Jonathan for failing to even call him or any other state official for 19 days after the kidnappings. Jonathan also hit out at the worldwide #BringBackOurGirls campaign, branding it a “manipulation” of the victims of the attack.

Boko Haram had raided the dormitories of the government secondary school at Chibok. The girls staying there had braved warnings of an attack to sit their final examinations. Boko Haram looted the school and then burned it to the ground. The kidnappings also blighted the lives of the girls from the town who were not taken away, as many have been too scared to continue their education.

In addition to Nigeria, Boko Haram is active in regions of Cameroon, Chad and Niger. According to Unicef, more than 1.3 million children have now been displaced. Some of those taken by Boko Haram have been forced to become child soldiers: one in five suicide bombers in Nigeria are believed to be children, and three-quarters of those are girls.

. Yeah, the honest truth said about the clueless buffoon of a 'fantastically corrupt zoo'. can someone pls help me with that 'clueless picture' of his?

SalamRushdie:
We all know it was El Rufai et al that were very vocal about refusing foreign boots on Northern soil and ofcourse the weak Jonathan listened to them

At times a President should be willing to go against the advise of his advisers and do the right thing. This was just poor leadership on his part.

adadike281:

In a kidnapping case or even a murder case, the first 48 hours are the most important towards solving it. After that the chances becomes lower.

Henry240:
Hogwash report and an attempt by the British to take glory. Nothing more, nothing less.

Apart from the Iranian embassy rescue, the British themselves do not have any proven record of a rescuing hostages from anywhere. On the other hand, the Nigerian military has rescued nearly 10,000 hostages, and proven.

So who is supposed to assist who in hostage rescue?

The operation to freed the British and Italian hostages was a disaster because of the participation of the British. If it had been a purely Nigerian ochrestrated operation like we had proven in other operations prior to that of the British and Italian, it would have been a success.

The British "Spy" aircraft broke down in Senegal on it's way to Nigeria, that report as expected tactfully removed this part.

Wow! What an uninformed statement. The British SAS is one of the most elite special teams in the world. Even the Israeli elite commando units are based on the SAS and here you are talking nonsense. Why don't you go to your nearest bookstore and pick up a book on the SAS before making such an misinformed statement.

Go read books like The One that got away by Chris Ryan or Bravo Two Zero by Andy McNab and inform yourself.
