No Politician was entirely truthful on the outside, but Goodluck Jonathan is an honest man in the inside, at least to his wife. Lolz |

toluxa1: toluxa1: toluxa1:you dont know what it means for government spokesperson to talk. In any sane government, the likes of Abati is deemed incontrovertible. But with illiterate Phd's government, it is lies, hypocrisy, and confusion. I have never taken this president serious right from the time of his s-election campaign. I have never been proved wrong ever since! All I hear is 'we will'., by year 2013, 2014 or the shit like those. He should tell us how far with facts and figures. 2 Likes |

Re: Presidency Officials Accuse Jonathan Of Lying To Nigerians by politician(m): 4:58pm On Nov 19, 2012 |
The president did not lie!! He was not just telling the truth!! Abati and his media aides did the job they were hired to do---- clean jona's mess!! They were hired to always make jonah look good with nigerians, lie if necessary, just make the boss look good!! And for jona to call these guys liars, its either he wants to get rid of them or he is just a retardeen like demdem always maintain! The president has a good heart, he really wants to effect positive changes in the nation but he is just too SLOW in the head!! A RETARDEEN!! He lacks the charisma, panache and strong character to be a president. A real man (even a military head-of-state) would have parried the questions, post an innuendo and just tell us the obvious without saying that his aides lied.... And Jona was not just that!! We all knew they were liars... And lied on your behalf!! He is weak and that is not good enough to be president though Ȋ̝̊̅ really believe he has a good heart!! |

Keep wasting time though I agree with you on the oyo first lady story, cause even pm news came out to say they were wrong but this is totally different. The President's spokesperson came out to make a statement, the President then comes on TV and contradicts this, on three different issues, now we're discussing it. How is that discussing rumors ![]() BTW, all those saying that Abatti gave those statements without the approval of GEJ, really?? A Special Adviser on Media will come out and make a statement on behalf of the President saying that the Government are holding talks with boko haram without clearance from the President and Commander-in-Chief ![]() 2 Likes |

@OP The issue of Power and security didnt strike me as being different in position. The president simply made it clear within the presidential media chat context that the Malitoba contract was being reviewed despite its hiccups and that the results would be favourable to the Canadian company. I bet the Candians have brought out their champagne glasses with that news In the issue of negotiation with the BokoHaram group, GEJ took the official position that they were not negotiating with them. This is an official position which prevents moral harzards. Any negotiation with the sect is therefore an informal one that will not be on official record But the issue of Patience recovery was where GEJ took a different position. I guess he couldn't hide his joy at his wife's recovery and blew that one. Best wishes and speedy recovery to her ![]() 1 Like |

Elueme: What do we want now? When Abati and Osinlu made those diplomatic statements, Nigerians shouted they were lying. The president has comeup to clear the air and tell Nigerians the plain truth, some are crying. What exactly do you want, a pathologically lying president? Smh How gullible Nigerians could be. Smh. Don't you know you cannot divorce the presidential spokesman from the president? Whenever the presidential spokesman makes statements onthe record its equivalent to the president making thesame statement HIMSELF! The presidential spokesman can't utter a single word to the press without the express endorsement of the president! So if Abati tells us today that the colour of the president's boxers are black and tomao the president himself comes out to say they are red, it ammounts to double speaking! It means the president LIED initialy! As I expect the gullible bootlickers like the poster above wldnt understand this. |

No matter how good or perfect a system is, those whose mind have been programmed to find only faults will ALWAYS see faults. Some persons mind have been programmed to find only faults in ALL that Mr president does. Such persons are irredeemble. The truth is that whether these persons like it or not, Jonathan is the president today and will remain so till 2015. If he decides to seek re-election, he'll win hands down. Irrespective of what HATERS think, irrespective of what FAULT-FINDERS think, Jonathan is performing and will continue to perform. ACN and CPC supporters can continue to HATE and CONVULSE online. |

This regular flip-flop attitude does not do the President's image any good. For doubters, the President's spokesman can NEVER issue a public statement without the President's approval! Segun Adeniyi, who held the same position during the Yar'adua era stated in his book the many instances where he had to review his press statements with President Yar'Adua over and over again before they were issued to the public. Sometimes, I feel that there are quite a number of blind supporters of the President on Nairaland who will never see any thing wrong in the President's glaring mistakes. Admitting to clear blunders (which the President and his aides committed this time) would have been more honorable... The President came across as a liar during that media chat. If it was one instance, it could be assumed as a slip. But on three (3) different issues! That was outright dishonesty. And I am not his supporter or otherwise... 2 Likes |

solomonkane: As much as GEJ messes up, its difficult to blame him on this one. Did they consult with the president before releasing these statements or did they think of themselves as omniscient and went ahead to release these press statements without consulting with their principal? These are questions that need answers; Do you actually believe that Abati can make false messages from the President from his own initiative and the President will not do anything about it? I don't. |
