The outcome of the general election, was absolutely the talk of every country. Each stakeholder was placed under a vigorous scrutiny and high blood pressure.

The world at large was on heel, while the various parties involved accepted defeat positively and negatively.

Today, we have summed up, the Top5 reasons the former President- Goodluck Jonathan was defeated.

1. Constitutional Disadvantage

Jonathan from day one after the death of Musa Yar’Adua whom he was his vice president, has been facing constitution interpretation challenges.

There was a heated debate in the PDP circle, because base on an undocumented agreement of power zoning, a northerner is expected to complete Yar’ Adua’s tenure to ensure the north successful completion of their term in office.

Also, another constitution interpretation against him in 2015 is that “nobody can be sworn into office more than twice” and Jonathan having been sworn-in in 2010 after the death of Yar’Adua and also in 2011 when he won the election, he was not expected to contest in 2015 election according to PDP’s constitution.

2. Wife Issues

It might surprise you to hear that the former first lady was one of the causes of her husband’s downfall. You might be asking the same question as every other person, HOW?

Madam Dame created many enemies than her husband could handle. One of them was Hon. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal who she reportedly referred to as “Hausa Boy” in a phone call she made to him, as written by a veteran journalist, Olusegun Adeniyi.

3.Trust Issues

Why does this heading sound so similar to Drakes music TRUST ISSUES? , IS THERE ANY RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THEM? .Time for the big reveal

Many PDP stakeholders who defected to other parties, APC especially, said that the reason why they left is that Jonathan does not trust anyone. His rift made strong stakeholders to leave the party such as former Bayelsa State Governor, Timipre Sylva, who became a strong opposing force to his re-election.

4. Unexpected Merge

Did you just say that was obvious? Bring your head for a knock. Although this is the mighty blow that sent Jonathan back to Otueke, nobody ever saw the coalition between CPC and ACN happening in 2015 ― not after the failure of the first attempt in 2011.

This coalition unmistakably converges the power of small parties to match against the giant party, PDP. The merger could be said to be chiefly engineered by a former governor of Lagos State, Bola Ahmed Tinubu (a.k.a Jagaban) after Jonathan administration came down on him. Tinubu enrolled Jonathan in his enemy list afterward.

5. Failure Of Orubebe's Plot

The reason why 'the boy who has no shoes was defeated', the shout of complaint by the former Niger Delta Minister, Elder Godsday Orubebe, was part of a master plan to disrupt the election when it was discovered that Jonathan was losing ground. Kidnapping of then INEC chairman, Prof. Otairu Jega, was also part of the master plan. If it had been successful, Jonathan might still be in office

And yes the won 90% through which means? Well thank God an APC chieftain from benue state admitted that PDP won in that state The joke's on you. If you like smash your phone this Night.

Lol.
If you think any West African nation will attempt to encamp their armies around Nigeria, then you don’t know who runs ECOMOG. Or the West Nations will attempt another Libya interventionism when their oil was secured.

If GEJ was a Beau Harry, or Abacha or an Obj— any military despot, he will still be in power. He’s a democrat and, personally, I do not think Nigeria is. ready for a democrat. The foundations are not there and precolonial fault lines, still deep.

Before idiotic pigs of buhari flood this thread. Let me add that the only reason GEJ lost the election is because he wanted peace and stability. APC is an evil party and thank God it's sinking fast

Google search didn't return any meaningful results for 'beau harry'.

Who is he/she?

zuma4k:
He lost because he was a failure, stemming from the brazen corruption by his appointees and his incompetence in managing the affairs of the country. Finally, it took a grand coalition by the Northern Elites, coupled with the South-westerners (Tinubu et al) and Ultimately the mass defections of key party stakeholders including serving Governors and Congressmen.
