Why Nigerians have endorsed Jonathan for 2015

By Fidelis Aburime
Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan GCFR, President of the Federal Republic, Nigeria, must declare now to run for the office of the president come 2015. He must return come  2015 to sustain the good work he has started.

The entire six Geo-political zones have endorsed him, the massive crowd in the various stadia is an evident/testimonial of his acceptance by the Nigerian people, who do not want to return to the dark days of hopelessness, misrule, maladministration, impunity, massive corruption in highest places, Do or die politics; massive rigging, etc, government of tyranny which promoted the use of force over that common sense; Udi and Zaki Biam, point of reference.

Until he came into office as the president, all major roads were not motor able; Ibadan – Lagos axis, Sagamu-Ore-Benin Road, all Federal roads in the eastern part of the country linking the northern part were all affected. Airports and Seaports infrastructure were decaved to an all time embarrass the proportion with no government presence felt.

The power sector totally collapsed even with the over 16 billion intervention fund down the drain with nothing to show. Political killings, selective justice system against perceived ‘’enemies of the state.

Our educational system suffered neglect with both ASUU and non Academic staff harassed to submission in a manner that could only be compared to the period of past military regimes.

That our students had no place for lectures, no laboratries for science students, was an undeniable fact because the sector like every other sector, was shortchanged by corrupt officials because of lack of accountability.

As result of the aforementioned situation in the country, for the first time in history of this nation, Nigerians have come together to speak with one voice against ethnic/regional politics, Godfatherism, nepotism and mediocrity and have unanimously settled for a man who has strong position for service, who detest indolence, a man that have demonstrated resilience, dexterity and uncommon courage despite all the distractions, insurgencies, harsh criticism and sabotage has performed above average.

The man with these vital ingredients, Nigerians need to lead us to the next level is Goodluck Jonathan.

It is a statement of fact that Goodluck “Godsent” Jonathan, is the only Nigerian political leader who has risen from the position of a Deputy Governor – Governor, Vice President – Acting President – President, an unusual resume, pedigree, which nobody anywhere in  world has possessed, which was a developmental process, divinely arranged to prepare  him for the job of today,’ to lead us to the next social politico cum economic emancipation that Nigerians are dire need of.

Let it be also on record that his coming to power was not a coincidence but an answer from God to our prayers of a good and tested leader.

Skeptic Nigerians should know that God has answered our prayers by  sending us such a good leader and a STATESMAN.

Goodluck Jonathan may not be articulate like president Barrack Obama; president of United States of America; he does not have such oratory prowess, like his critics have said on different occasions but he (Goodluck) surely has focus and that uncommon Nigerian strength/spirit.

Even president Obama knows that he will not survive one week in Aso rock villa as the president of Nigerian, given our mode of politicking, multi ethno-religious inclinations, opposition groups, saboteurs, whistle blowers, political jobbers and arm chair critics to mention but a few.

Goodluck Jonathan has indeed recorded some giant strides so far, and are enough reasons for him to come back to complete the good work he is doing, on behalf of the good people of Nigeria. The very reasons Nigerians are c1amouring for his return.
