I envy people who drink – at least they know what to blame everything on. – Oscar Levant
If anyone in Nigeria still thinks we have a performing President,
such a person had better visit a psychologist and if it persists, visit
a psychiatrist. For the 3 years that President Goodluck Jonathan has
piloted the affairs of this country, he has displayed governance
orchestrated by drunkenness and if he deems it fit to go to court over
this statement, he is very free. But let him be reminded that no right
thinking person will appear before the courts in Nigeria; not me.
His mantra of
transformation agenda has turned to ‘traumatization’ agenda. This is a
man who rode on the goodwill of Nigerians, not minding that we hated and
still bitterly hate the PDP, we gave him our votes willingly like a
virgin who has been brainwashed by the deceptive words of his lover and
after the painful first time experience left to clean up the blood
alone. President Jonathan has raped our collective intelligence and
treasury, enjoying the ride and ecstasy alone while we never moaned or
screamed as his lovers. Yes, he rode us like a beast while massaging us
with sweeter words and promises. Finally he has dumped us!
We have turned to the masturbation of our brains to pleasure selves
in order to forget the pains inflicted on us; consoling ourselves that
if he doesn’t treat us well as we deserve, we will give ourselves treat,
which we have continuously done. We agree that it is all deceit of our
individual selves.
Walking like a frail man who knows no evil, with words so sweet to
deceive even the strongest of minds, he bamboozled us with ‘I had no
shoes” and we fell for it; unknown to us he had over 400 piece of shoes
as a deputy governor. We forgot that he was held other positions that
had empowered him, but yet we followed him blindly like a lamb led to
the slaughter and he has truly slaughtered us.
The realization is not too late that we voted for a drunk who
presides after taking shots of whisky or any brand that gets to the
table first. If he is not a drunk, how do we explain his actions so far
by becoming a terrorist to Journalists, taking them to court for
exposing his memo to clamp down on opposition parties? While the case is
still in court, he issues more threat of suing another media for daring
to publish that he took shots of ‘ogogoro’ during his birthday celebration.
No one gives credit
to Obasanjo and former leaders for all the evils they committed against
Nigerian, neither have we told them, ‘well done for looting our national treasury”,
thus using them to judge President Jonathan’s performance is foolery on
anyone’s part. This is what makes some ethnic bigots to threaten fire
and hell should GEJ not win 2015 election, simply because he comes from a
region that is regarded as the ‘golden geese that lays the golden egg’,
as if any of them planted or stored the oil in the land. Our
carelessness as a people has given guts to ethnic morons to always
scream blue murder when Jonathan is accused of corruption, ranting that
he be left alone, ‘after all OBJ did worse. So what! Has OBJ become a
standard for retrogression or has IBB become a yardstick to measuring
who takes the plaque for Nigeria most corrupt leader. Is Nigeria a
country that every ethnic leader who gets to the throne must rape silly?
Only drunk presidents are intimidated by his ministers, fearful of
getting them sacked despite mountains of corruption leveled against them
by the press and civil society, simply because they funded the rigged
election that brought him to power. Only leaders who are always drunk
allow ministers like Onyebuchi Chukwu to still remain in the saddle as
health minister when it is glaring that he’s not fit for such a job. One
would have thought that after the sack of Ruqayat as minister of
education as a result of our calls, and replacing her with his buddy who
is a thug, Nyesom Wike, the lingering ASUU crisis would have been
resolved, but hell no; it gets worse. Here is a leader who has never
owned up to his failure; always putting the blame on people and past
leaders, which is a hallmark of drunkards. If you cannot stand the heat
of the kitchen, get out.
Our drunken President has now mandated his puppet Vice Chancellors to
force our erudite professors and lecturers to resume academic lectures
or lose their positions. What arrant decree from a civilian president
who has successfully metamorphosed into an emperor with title as Emperor
Goodluck Jonathan Bulldozer. Does he think we live in the time of the
military that his drafting of soldiers to the campuses will cause the
lecturers to be frightened and resume? The military regime did worse
than this in the popular ‘Ali must go’ and Ali did go. Jonathan should
stop beating the war drum that will consume him and set the nation
ablaze, for when it begins; not even the safety of Aso Rock can secure
him. Only drunken Presidents dare the academia in their country for that
begins the downfall of their regime, hence most leaders avoid them like
plagues, giving them their dues with less confrontation.
Do we attach President’s Jonathan’s behavior to his study of zoology,
haven mingled with animals that are lesser beings with shallow brains? I
really don’t know where to place him. For the first time in the history
of any country, opposition parties are always coming third in
elections, in a new rigging style that the Goodluck administration have
invented. For the first time in a country, opposition party leaders take
to the street to protest the charade called election in Anambra States,
and the President deploys all security forces to stop them. This is a
protest where a former head of state and retired army general partook
in! Hasn’t the president taken enough shots of ‘ogogoro’ for him to have
the boldness to stop such constitutional process, using the apparatus
of the state, which are funded by the generality of Nigerians?
For the very first time in our country, a President loses grip of his
political structure in broad day light, prompting them to move to the
opposition party, thereby making the President a minority leader; such a
record he must be happy to have broken, as the world’s first president
to come from a minority party. For crying out loud, how did we
degenerate to this level of shame that we have a Rehoboam as a
President; a drunk who never thinks before he acts; a leader who takes
all his most sensitive decisions from corrupt imperialist women? Only
drunks makes certificate forgers board members of a university and
foremost corrupt ex governor board chairman of Pension commission,
giving him access to loot the money of pensioners, which will be used in
funding the president’s 2015 election.
Sometimes one wonders the army of deceivers who surrounds this once
innocent president, telling him tales of Nigerians supporting his
regime. One truly cannot tell where he gets the statement that Nigerians
are asking him to contest for second tenure. Mr. President, please wake
up from your slumber; no Nigerian has asked you to contest and if any
has asked you, they are your ethnic group from South South, few South
West people and minimum of South East voters and you can hear this
straight; your support base is not up to two million voters.
Run for what? That we may continue in this hell that you and your PDP
Governor’s forum Chairman, Godswill Akpabio has inflicted on us?
Nigerians has not given up completely on you, for the race is still on.
Most people are not good starters in a race and you are obviously one of
such, hence the benefit of doubt that you may just end up well and
become the most loved president in Nigeria’s history as you have always
wished; that is if wishes were horses. Take less of alcohol and listen
less to your corrupt henchmen, for in them lies your albatross.
We have given you a fresh start; solve all the lingering issues in
the health and education sectors, do your best to alleviate the poverty
level of Nigerians, read and listen to critical reports about you for
that is where you will get the true pictures of happenings in Nigeria,
not from your 419 aides. We hope to see you at the top.
These little things matter…
