Excelloque:
I Didn't Hand Over A Collapsed Nation To Buhari
- Dr. Goodluck Jonathan-

- Former President, Goodluck Jonathan has replied his critics who accused him of handing over a nation at the verge of collapse to his successor, President Muhammadu Buhari.

- Jonathan recounted the achievements of his government to include, handing over a country that produced the richest man in Africa.

- Jonathan said, “I took over a Nigeria that was the second largest economy in Africa with a GDP of $270.5 billion in 2009,

- I handed over a Nigeria that had grown to become the largest economy in Africa and the 24th largest economy in the World with a GDP of $574 billion.

- I handed over dollar exchange rate of N187 per Dollar official rate in our banks, compared to their N560 now official rate for a Dollar

-“I inherited a Nigeria in which the trains were not working, and handed over a Nigeria in which citizens can safely travel by trains again.

- I also inherited a country where illiteracy rate particularly in the Northern part was alarming.

- I handed over a country where every state in the North and indeed all the states had a Federal University. I inherited a country where there was total infrastructural decay in all the unity schools and colleges of education.

- But I handed over a country with massive infrastructural improvement in almost higher institutions.

- I inherited a country where agricultural inputs and production were almost zero.

- But I handed over a country where a bag of rice was sold for N6,500 to N7000.

- My regime since the establishment of ecological fund office did more irrigation dams in the North and other parts of the country than other subsequent administrations put together.

- I inherited epileptic fuel supplies resulting to endless queues at the filling stations. I maintained despite enormous challenges of fuel subsidies and handed over a relatively stable fuel regime and also at a managed local price of N87 per litre.

- I inherited a Nigeria that was a net importer of cement, and handed over a Nigeria that is a net exporter of cement.

- In 2009 the richest Nigerian was the 5th richest man in Africa, but I handed over a Nigeria that produced the richest man in Africa.

- The former President further stated " I inherited a country where people were almost losing hope on the credibility of its electoral process but I noticed that democracy will continue to grow in the African continent if leaders value the process of elections more than the product of the process. I handed over electoral process that engendered fairness in its conduct and conclusiveness ".

- He said, “Even in the 2015 general elections in my country, Nigeria, there was potential for major crisis if I was not a President duly elected by the will of the people.

- “The campaigns leading to the elections almost polarized the country into Christian vs Muslims and North vs South divide.

- Most World leaders were worried that our elections will result into major crisis.
Some pundits even from here in the United States said that those elections would spell the end of Nigeria and that we would cease to exist as a nation because of the polls.

- That is where the leadership question comes into play.

- As a leader that was duly elected by the people, I considered the people’s interest first.

- How do I manage my people to avoid killings and destruction of properties?

- With the interest of the people propelling all the decisions I took, we were able to sail through.

- Indeed, we sailed through because I refused to interfere with the independence of the Independent National Electoral Commission, 'INEC', having appointed a man I had never met in my life to run it. We sailed through because I maintained and still believe that my personal ambition, interest is not worth the blood of any single Nigerian.

- My philosophy was simple. For elections to be credible, I as a leader, must value the process more than the product of the process. And the citizens must have confidence in the electoral body.

God1000:
lol, emotional campaign ke, I don't think Putin is stupid enough to take any hostile action against USA, Russia is no match for America

God1000:
if you think a nuclear war between US and Russia will only collapse America then you are very ignorant and naive, it will be the end of humanity, not even you will be alive to type more trash.

Russia will be completely destroyed, America has the capability

God1000:
I like this man, he's a fearless sage

Uprightness100:
The world is looking at Predictions but Everything playing out in our Eyes are clearly written in the Word of GOD, the Holy Bible. The wars, famines, Pestilences, Disaters, etc. they are all in the Bible.

Putin and Russia are Major Parts of GOD'S Endtimes Players. Others are Israel, China, Iran, Damascus Syria, Turkey, Ethiopia, Sudan and a host of Nations in and around the Middle East.

Putin and Russia are gonna be a Great Force to reckon with, but she will Brought Low and Crushed when she Comes against Israel with her many other nations.

GOD ALMIGHTY will Put his Hook in Putin Jaw soon, and Drag him down to Israel. He will be so Proud and full of Confidence but THE GREAT KING of kings will Crush and Melt them all.

The Victory won't come from Israel soldiers or Weapons as they will be surrounded and almost Swallowed. GOD ALMIGHTY Himself will Come down to Win that War for Israel..
See Ezekiel 38&39 and Zechariah 12 .

There is no more time I tell you. Everything is on point for the Endtimes wars, Beast System , New world Order, One world government, One world religion, etc.

The Rapture is just a Breath away. Do well to Ensure that you Have JESUS Christ as your LORD and SAVIOR. Do well to Ensure you are Watching, Praying and Ready. I tell you! There is no more time.

Kingozymandias:
I am From Anambra but I want to ask you, how is this comment relevant? Are.you jobless? Are you having depression issues that suddenly you just woke up and decided to type nonsese on the internet?

This is my worry with my tribe, alot of the iliterates are allowed to speak publicly there by making us look ridiculous.

No educated person who passed through the 4 walls of a university will just wake up come online and type this rubbish .

I suggest you get educated and a job sir.

Bye

Enjoy the report in Ukrainian and it's English translation

Igbofam:
The air defence in Ukraine is still fully functional. Stop hyperventilating with your lies. They are still shooting down Russian choppers and aircraft as well as some missiles.

Russia claimed they wanted to demilitarize Ukraine and they failed to do so because Ukraine now has even more weapons than when the war began with even Russia being a part of those contributing weapons to them through the Ukrainian army capture of Russian weapons and equipment.

Ukraine just 2 days ago captured Russia's most advanced Jamming and communication tech. The US has requested to have it transfered to them which is in the process of being done now.

Try not to cry more than the Russians. Putin knows his attempt at capturing Ukraine has been a huge failure so has been slacking his top military brass left right and center while your keyboard warrior on nairaland thinks he is not have sleepless nights

Demolakay:
i hope u knw d same peskov says Russia has achieved part of his objectives by creating a link btw Mariupol, to crimea nd d donbass region.pls check for latest on bbc,Cnn,nd Aljazeera.Almost all of mariupol is in Russia's hands,nd peskov says one of d objectives for invasion was to sieze mariupol nd connect it wit d luhanks,donbass nd crimea regions,being a strategic ports nd passage for its ships nd logostics.

Igbofam:
Tell this to Kadyrov himself who confirmed it. I believe you know who Kadyrov is right?

Is he also part of the western propaganda?

Kastonkastroll:
Reverse psychology don't work on me. You are the man who litters this forum with western propaganda and lies just to massage your fragile ego, and you are the same slowpoke accusing me of hatred. What is more foolish than a man(comedian) who is sacrificing the lives of his citizens just because he wants to join a block of bullies?

And I bet you don't know zelenksky is a fascist camouflaging as a defender of democracy. Your CNN didn't tell you zelensky outrightly banned all opposition parties in Ukraine abi?

Mumu black people that never think even for a second!

kelechiodo:
Ok
Soludo, I admire you but why not arrange security first before this announcement. Nigeria police is incapable of containing the activities of these unknown gun men.

Wazobia2216:
For your mind now, you don type sense

Ukraine is an independent country, what's Russian's business with the decision their president made

If their decision no pay you, boycott nah, you come go dey fight like small brat

You self come dey yarn like small pikin[/b]

Botlord:
So you guys don't have any propaganda to present us again, it's now this...

I pity Ukraine for thinking the west can face Russia on it behalf.

Propaganda don't win war, it'll only make such countries appear foolish later.

Meanwhile Ukraine has killed 100,000 Russian soldiers, destroyed thousands of ammunitions. We're winning on Twitter, CNN, BBC, nairaland...

God bless Putin and mother Russia.

Pls don’t call those idiots n the National Assembly representatives , they are all there for themselves

pyro62:
Girl way no go ever get sense in life. You criticize black people, but justify the useless clan that eat dog meat. The white man that you lick their ass everytime has condemned eating dogs and cats, but your tribes cannibalistic tendencies would always be justified by you. With your coconut head

96ACE:
Good for the rubber stamp National Assembly. You can't eat your cake and have it. Once upon a time you worked for the executives against the interest of the people, now it's your time to carry your cross.

MadamVanessa:
What's the different between you that eat cow, goat , and chicken meat with them that eat dog meat? Or the ones you eat are not animal meat? Or the animal meat you eat was approved by God himself. Sometimes you people talk foolishly.

Those who have the right to criticize or condemn people that eat dog meat, are those people that doesn't eat any kinds of meat at all. But inasmuch as you eat any meat, and you talk trash about people that eat other meat you don't eat, then you're a fool. Your foolishness stinks to high heaven, and obviously you're a fool, because you eat meat.
