LoveKing:
sorry for quoting your long post but you were not so intelligent to see the sarcasm in the OP. See yourself as the opposition then you'll understand. Moreover the piece is from ipaidabribe.com, maybe you dont know who they are and what they stand for.

Kobojunkie:

Where are people getting these numbers from?

Sisi_Kill:
Pulls Djmally close and whispers

It's. . .C.A.P.I.S.C.E - CAPISCE

Pronounced CAH-PEESH!

Billyonaire: Which Nigerian money and what is Okupes ?

Mallamabdul:
Abeg, If i exaggerated a bit on the megawatts generated, so make you please tell us the actual figures?

ndu_chucks: I don't see the wisdom of itemizing, what should otherwise be, the regular job of the President, as major achievements. Major achievements should be acts which go beyond the call of duty and which are performed with great distinction.

Sir, to date, this President is worse than a mediocre President. I'm afraid he is too dumb to rule Nigeria successfully - I hope I am wrong.

taharqa:

"Major" achievements you said.

Do you have any idea of the extent of

meticulous work been done in the

Power Sector not just in the marked

improvements in Generation,

Transmission and Distribution but

esp in the Privatization and

concessioning of the sector? Are you

aware of the effects the reforms,

which is currently in its concluding

stage(Sept/Oct this year), would

have on the nation? This admin is

midwifery the greatest

transformation in the Power Sector

in this country's history.

The nation is also undergoing its most

audacious developments in the

Transportation Sector- Rails, Inland

Waterways and Seaports. On rails,

the NRC that have been moribund for

very many years have been revived,

more workers re-engaged and most of

its dilapidated facilities across

the nation repaired; all the rail

tracks in the country are been

rehabilitated(actually most of the

tracks have been rehabilitated

already and some intra- and

interstate trains services have

started running after a very long time

in deed). The Standard Guage

Itakpe-Aladja-Warri rail track is

finally completed(with additions

planned) while the Modern Abuja-

Kaduna track is on going(about 30%

completion) just as the Double track

Lagos-Ibadan Modern(which is

different from the narrow guage

Lagos-Ibadan which is already

running trains) has been awarded

about 3 months ago.

On Inland Waterways, the dredging of

the Lower Niger which links 9 states

on its axis and provide south-north

all year round navigation which

would ensure the cheap movements of

huge amounts of goods and humans,

has been completed with some

accompanying River Ports for the

first time in the country's history;

the dredging of River Benue has also

commenced.

The Seaports now work 24/7,

bureaucracy reduced and the amount of

time goods spend in the ports has

been halfed already(though not yet

up to the 48hrs target) while

Demorage costs have significantly

decreased(when was the last time you

heard of goods staying months on the

seas cos terrible congestions in the

pots and paying huge demorage). Do

you have any idea of the effects of

all theses on the economy going

forward especially as they are been

interconnected?(works on Roads need

to be accelerated though).

The most massive rehabilitation and

remodeling of airports across the

nation with about 11 of them is

ongoing; Kano International Airport

is for instance nearing completion.

....As a Nigerian am sick and tired of these lies that some of you guys are peddling about the president not doing anything. You and others who feel otherwise should be COWARDS and respond to these claims here . I am earnestly waiting for such responses. Good luck with that

Mallamabdul:

Its easy to criticise but facts dont lie. GEJ has generated over 4,770 megawatts since he came in as against the less than 2600 he met on ground. He Is targeting 9000 MW and this is realizable given the ongoing construction of mambilla and Zungeru. He also intends to privatise PHCN for more efficiency.

Our Foriegn reserves have not depleted as you erroneously tried to portray in your post. Rather it has increased from 32 to 36 billion in April 2012.
The money in our excess crude account has not also been wasted. The GEJ govt seeks to put an end to this culture of waste by creating the Soverign Wealth Fund which shall be a legal account for savings for the rainy days.

Its also funny that you don't know about the ongoing prosecution of oil thieves. How ridiculous? Do you watch TV at all?

Mallamabdul:
Abeg, If i exaggerated a bit on the megawatts generated, so make you please tell us the actual figures?

KOBOJUNKIE, NDU-CHUKS, MACTUNJI, DEMDEM< SISI_KILL etc etc

This is the post again:

https://www.nairaland.com/1025483/new-list-president-goodluck-jonathans-achievements/5#11915524

Please dont be COWARDS, lets debate.

Kobojunkie:

You call that a bit of an exaggeration? None of the figures I have been able to mine gives me any number close to what you have. Also, I know we have not solved transmission issues since Jonathan took office so how do we supply more than what we currently produce, or have active capacity for? That was the next question I was ready to send your way.

Elueme: This thread has entered d 5th page and still counting..been an interesting read.. On d subject of discuss,I ll comment in comparative with the past leaders of the country and the level of structural and socio decadence prior to his ascention as well how advanced the country is.. The president in 16 months in office has set the ball rolling for the rebirth of a new nigeria, where conservatism and stereotypism( bus.as usual thing) is fast becoming a thing of d past.. This he's achieving by groundbreaking policies and frameworks most of which have been apt. This no leader except obj who attempted has done. The power sector reform is the 1st to yield visible results cos d initiative was given a serious reinvogoration by GEJ.. Others in public service reforms have saved d country billions from recurrent exp budget, Agric reforms being initiated if we fully comply will lead d country 2 an alternative economic heave and not only wil it create much employment for our rural populace but also help bridge d rural urban wealth distribution gap. The achievement in d transp sector were raised by someone earlier wch nobody has disputed cos facts speak 4 self.. For road rehabilitation, I just left lag dis evening and I sw d oshodi apapa concessioning wrk, saw d 3rd mainland bridge nd was also opportuned 2 plight d Benin Ore axis nd can tell works are seriously going on.. This gives credence 2 d other roads claims as published by thisday newspapers in May.. Are we denying the cleansing cum revelation of d oil sector? How abt d PIB as proposed? Isn't that loudable? In aviation, under dis admin did we meet d international standard on airways safety.. As I type d Kano airport rehabilitation is complete and works seriously ongoing in all other major airports.. No govt has had it this good.. How abt education where we now have an all time highest budgetary allocation in history, reasonable demands by ASUU has been meant, 9 fed varsities have been established and monies for kick off released.. Has any govt achieved dis feat? How about d ministry of Youth with d U win initiative and nysc reforms to encourage performance? Has any govt tot of such iniatives b4? These are just but a few but the point am driving @ is, the citizens need more but he who is faithful in a little ll be faithful in bountifulness.. Comparatively he remains d best 2 have ruled but may not be d best the country ll ever have.. Considering the country he inherited in May last year nd where it is now, the man has performed beyond expectations even in d faces of daunting voluntary political distabilisation as orchestrated by foes( d opposition party) nd friends alike cos of regional and religious bigotry.To even focus in d midst of these challenges is y the president shd be scored high.. It will take principle and dogged vision to stand as a president in a country like dis @ a time like dis.. People call Yar Adua, but may I ask what he did outside the rule of law which he entrenched? Amnesty was a success cos of GEJ.. He brokered truce by going 2 d creeks as VP then.. In what way has GEJ broken d rule of law? He strenghtened it 4der by signing FOI.. You may not like his person but don't ignore his msgs and commend him in tamdem with his works y we hope 4 more.. Abachas toughness didn't mk nigeria greater.. Violence attacks may not end BH.. The man is on course nd Nigeria is working again.

lordriko: I can't imagine someone come on nairaland listing out GEJ's achievements, am not pro or con but stands for the true reality. my question is what are the responsibilities and obligations of the president? As a father and the head of a family I understands my own responsibilities and obligations in my own little way. I call this sponsored, cheap campaign and electioneering. Mr president has tried in his own little way but you don't call that achievements. Now let me bring you this to your knowledge: I access the economy based on the amount I give to my wife and what she put on the table,I buy the water I drink, I buy fuel for my gen on a daily basis,in a growing economy it shouldn't be so. Our GDP is out on point. Our depth rate is becoming alarming. The so call subsidy cabals are on top of the economy, the political will to tackle insecurity is zero, our education standard is falling day by day. A trip round our neighbouring countries you will appreciate leadership at work. The question remains what are the responsibilities and obligations of mr president? Stop listing on letters let his works speaks for him action speaks louder than voice.

maclatunji:

I know many people want me to pander to their every wish but I am only one man and have to go to sleep now. Enjoy this thread for now. There are so many points you can address here.

taharqa:

Oh you want to go to sleep now *laughing*...shee you go come back tomorrow ni? If you guys will not come to me, I wiil go to you.

Good night. Dream NIGERIA

You dey use facts fumigate them comot . . .see as all of them dey scamper

delvinmaya: I no fit laff again. Some posts on nairaland kinda ve that effect on me. For me,i got to shout out to three posters in this thread,@ taharqa(men,i loved your write-up and could not help but agree more,i have never seen a write-up more concise and pretty. @ihedinobi,you too much. You both took words outta ma mouth,thanks so much,and @taharqa,they won't respond,they suffer from a pathological urge to always criticize,whereas they are no better. @sessydool,respect your view but i don't agree with you in certain aspects. @kobojunkie,if you can,get a copy of the nation newspaper,dated july 17,2012, page 22,and read[b] the article by Gen Bakut(rtd)[/b]. It aint much but you can actually get an idea on the state of things in the power sector

Mallamabdul:
You have a morbid fear for truth. I believe that you are a staunch ACN liar and hater of Jonathan so I will use an ACN newspaper to prove you wrong.
Please review this link.
http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/business/57661-electricity-generation-hits-record-4477mw.html
Jonathan's govt has generated 3,477 megawatts of electricity. It's a record in Nigeria's history.

I don't see the wisdom of itemizing, what should
otherwise be, the regular job of the President, as major achievements.
Major achievements should be acts which go beyond the call of duty and
which are performed with great distinction.

Sir, to date, this President is worse than a mediocre President. I'm
afraid he is too dumb to rule Nigeria successfully - I hope I am
wrong.
