How can a reasonable person believe that the website would publish 1970 as the same year he got all his educational qualifications
Even a BMC employee on N250k e-warrior wages to confuse his fellow citizens should be sensible a bit na!
Haba!!!
Sahara Reporters and Omoyele Sowore are telling LIES again just like their paymaster- Alhaji LIE Mohammed.

How I withstood pressure and got Jonathan employed at OMPADEC

A Nigerian critical of the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan today is the Convener of the Committee of Concerned Northern Professionals, Politicians, Academics and Businessmen (CCNPPAB), Dr. Junaid Mohammed. Ironically, the same Junaid, who was a former member of the House of Representatives in the Second Republic , highly recommended and fought for the appointment of the President at the defunct Oil Mineral Producing Areas Development Commission (OMPADEC). Barely 19 years after, the same Junaid thinks otherwise of the President. In this interview, our Managing Editor, Northern Operation, YUSUF ALLI, the critic opens up on how he met President Jonathan.

How did you know President Goodluck Jonathan? Where did your path cross each other?

In short, I met President Dr. Goodluck Jonathan exactly early 1993. I met him in the cause of my work as a federal commissioner in the then OMPADEC in Port Harcourt . It has been renamed as the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC). So, recruitment into OMPADEC brought me into contact with President Jonathan. We went to Port Harcourt as a skeletal group comprising only commissioners. This means we had 14 staff, apart from the secretary who was a Federal Government appointee. So, we had to start recruiting people.
In the method of recruiting, the former Chairman of OMPADEC, Albert Horsefall again violated not only the constitution but violated Decree No. 23 of 1991 of OMPADEC. He put employment into OMPADEC as a proportion to the oil that is being produced in an area. Producing oil an in area does not guarantee you that the area is the kind of area that produces engineers or doctor. If you have no doctors in the area and you produce all the oil in the Niger Delta, you could not be employed.
So, we found ourselves in a very serious manpower situation. Areas where we have the manpower to come and carry out the projects and execute them were not available. At the same time, areas that were producing the oil hugely so to speak could not unfortunately produce the manpower that was necessarily for the maintenance of the infrastructure that we are trying to put in the Niger Delta. In one of such, there had been earlier recruitment, but there had been a lot of backlash and complaints. So, people especially among the Ijaw were complaining that they were grossly under-represented and they said some of the people who said they were Ijaw were not Ijaw and did not come from the areas which have now been renamed Bayelsa after the creation of the state.
So...eh…
I took that into consideration and reported to Babangida and Gambo that there were a lot of complaints after the last recruitment exercise. We were about to start another recruitment when the name of President Goodluck came to my attention. I realised he came from a very under-developed area in terms of educational attainment. I also realised that the area is a huge producer of oil in the local government. I had two friends who are Ijaw. There was late Sam Ikikoro who said there is a young Ijaw man. I asked further, he said they are regarded as Ijaw and they speak Ijaw but they are a small tiny clan or group within the Ijaw group. I asked whether Jonathan comes from that local government or not he said yes. I said okay.
Then I also asked a close friend of mine, an engineer who had settled in Ghana and finished at Ahmed Bello University , Paul Abiu. I said do you know this man (Jonathan)? He said no, he did not know the man but he knows this local government. It is definitely an Ijaw local government. When the issue of recruitment came, I found out that in short- listing the names of applicants, Horsefall said he had an appointee.
I objected to that and insisted that the recruitment was an opportunity to redeem our image as a responsible organisation which is strictly speaking a Federal Government organisation belonging to all the people of Niger Delta. When the name of Goodluck Jonathan came, Horsefall said he had a better appointee, he introduced another name of his cousin. I said I would not accept. That was the beginning of the fight we had and it went on into so many areas and the activities of OMPADEC until the very end. Horsefall was defeated because majority of the commissioners in OMAPADEC then agreed with me and he had no alternative than to recruit Jonathan.
The fight came between me and Horsefall and the fight lasted until the very end of OMPADEC when it was dissolved by the late Head of State, Gen. Sani Abacha. The important thing is that there was another boy who is now late, he is an Ijaw man. His name was Joe. Joe and Goodluck wanted to come and thank me and even come with their community. I said I didn’t want to see them because what I did was to satisfy my conscience. I believe Horsefall had done injustice by putting too many Kalabari at the expense of Ijaw people.
So, Jonathan knew what you did?
Very much. In fact, he thanked me well for that gesture, which meant nothing to me. As far as I am concerned, it is not for me asking Jonathan for compensation. It is not my business to come and see Jonathan. It was only lately I knew that one of my brothers happened to know him and they are close. That has nothing to do with me and I know I have seen him several times at OMPADEC. As far as I am concerned, my idea of public service is that you do what you can and regard politics as public service. I believe whoever is the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria must learn to listen to criticisms because the country is not his personal matrimony. Nigeria belongs to all us, whether he is my brother or somebody I knew, Goodluck or Horsefall, he has a responsibility to listen to us.
Are you saying your bitter criticism of Jonathan is not personal?
Absolutely no. Jonathan knows better than anybody. Even each time some people tried to incite him against me, he will look and say Dr. Junaid was my boss and that has been the case. As far as I am concerned, that has nothing to do with me, I have never had any quarrel, not even an argument with him when I was in OMPADEC where we worked together.

That would be how many years?

The relationship started in 1993 and we are now in 2012. So, what is the big thing?

If you knew of good qualities of Jonathan and you recommended him for a job then, why is that you don’t seem to agree ….

(Cuts in) I recommended him to be an Assistant Director, I did not recommend him to be the President of Nigeria. These are two different things. If I were to assess him as an Assistant Director, Ecology, that is a different matter. If I were to give assessment now as a president of the country, it would have been a different assessment.

Hypocrisy and stupidity is when you support a President that doesn't have ordinary school cert but criticises a senator for not finishing uni.

Exactly my thoughts too That 1970 is just a placeholder year for the website. Maybe they're trying to update the true graduation year
