Joel Brinkley could have come around to lead the impeachment proceedings himself, after all, he seem more interested in what is happening in Nigeria, than his own country... Yeye baff una, like Obama was able to restore back the American economy from recession under 2 years... I'd.iot. |

It pains me when Nigerians insult Nigeria,now let me ask a question, what have you done for Nigeria? We choose to compare Nigeria with the USA, BRITAIN RUSSIA, those countries are way too developed even before we got independence, and we keep dreaming and refuse to bring it in reality, I am ashamed of the level of stup!dity some empty brian display here. |

bubadaniel13: OP just a question for the confused Mr Joel Brinkley,Is GEJ the first leader of Nigeria?how many years has he spent on power so far?Nigeria has been ruled by bad leaders for decades and u expect GEJ to turn bad things around within three years,the writer of the article must be dreaming.but you expect jonathan to continue in making nigeria a fail state? |

tatosh: Seems everybody around the world and some Nigerians seem to just realise that our president is a concrete nuisance. Well, I've known this long ago and I seriously campaigned against him in 2011 but those without brains said they were voting GEJ not PDP...now we are in a mess.I'm with you on this! I also campaigned against him and did not vote for him in 2011. I proudly voted for Buhari. Just last two weeks ago during the area council elections in FCT, a friend of mine who is 35 years old, a university graduate and still unemployed hitherto, voted for PDP candidate in Bwari Area Council after been bribed with #1,000. I couldn't but marvel at the hopelessness of Nigerians! 4 Likes |

mikedore: I hope he (Gej) reads this write up! Truth is bitter.Don't worry Abati will read and will soon come up with some lame write up. Trust that he will embellish his reply with the usual heavy grammar, displaying his vocabulary power and making less educated ones like us read more than twice to fully grasp his ramblings. I didn't have to re-read a line in Mr Brinkley's write up, simple and delivered in such a style that makes anyone want to read. 2 Likes |

pro01: Someone should kindly tell me how GEJ's (2 year) administration is worse than OBJ's eight years in power. I have since concluded that shallow people (which describes many of the most vocal critics of the present administration) hate GEJ not necessarily for his actions or inactions, but because of his person and persona.. Just imagine what how you reason wit all this big grammar you disappoint me. You are saying because those before him performed woefullyn, nigeria should accept anything he gave us. Don't forget nigerians voted for a change. 3 Likes |

drnoel: U people are looking at it the very wrong way though barking at the right horse. GEJ problem starts with his advicers and people around him. Nigeria is a country where Oga's at the top take decisions with impunity without consulting just cos they feel its their right to do so. Most Nigerian men have that problem esp ones who grew up in Nigeria even more esp our corrupt politicians and senior government officials. No if our government (GEJ, PDP and there cronies) could learn that before they take serious decisions they should sample opinions most of these problems would not be, also if they knew they would have to answer to someone; believe u me, they would make no room for mistakes.but i belief d oga at the top are not upto will the masses. If jonathan is efficient nd want 2 fulfil is promise. Then all other issue is a smaller hums |

Billyonaire: Hahahahahahaha These Vultures will not cease to amaze me. So Jonathan should be impeached because of 17 Ambulances. How much does Air Force One cost ? Whats the cost of Marine one ? I cant believe these nematodes are this silly. So now, if Presidency uses 17 Ambulances, is it a problem ? How many people do you think work in the Presidency ? You haters are just too daft. If I have my way in the Presidency, its gonna be 100 Ambulances. Its NDelta Oil Money, not cocoa money, and not Groundnut Pyramid money. Assuming u said otherwise, I would have wondered if ur salary was seized for this month. |

How can they impeach him when the bigger thief a.k.a David Mark is the senate president? A man who rejected a bill that unemployed graduates in Nigeria should be paid N20,000 every month. They are all bloody criminals. If only...If just only the dreaded Boko Haram would stop killing innocent citizens and divert their activities to these thieving nigerian poli"trick"ians and their families, they would have my thumbs up at the end of the day. God bless the mod who posted this on FP. This is the kind of story that should be on frontpage so that the whole world will know what is going on. |

Mr. Brinkley wrote a column for Tribune Media Services (http://trib.in/WeyJsR) that contains largely inaccurate facts, poorly- (or un-) researched information, hear-say and grossly xenophobic opinions about Vietnam and Vietnamese culture, and disguised it all as legitimate journalism. When called out about the errors in his so-called journalism, Mr. Brinkley not only defended his writing, but further disparaged other Southeast Asian countries. Why should such an unethical professional be able to shape the minds of young scholars at such a well-regarded institution such as Stanford? Shame on you. https://www.change.org/petitions/professor-joel-brinkley-stanford-university-resign-from-teaching ANYBODY WILL JUST SIT SOMEWHERE AND WRITE RUBBISH..IS NIG IS THE ONLY COUNTRY? YES WE HAVE PROBLEMS, BUT I THINK EFFORTS ARE BEING MADE TO CORRECT THIS ABNORMALIES, WHY SHOULD ONE WHITE GUY THAT BELIEVES HE KNOWS EVERYTHING JUST SIT AND TRY TO CREATE CHAOS IN OUR MIDST...HE SHUD WRITE ABT HIS COUNTRY, COS THE HAVE THEIR OWN PERCULIAR PROBLEMS TOO.. |

I can singlehandedly buy 17 ambulances and dash your entire village. Nigeria is a rich country and we have average of 180 private jets so far from mostly Private citizens, if you are a failure, do not blame to President. Blame who ever fathered you. |

never in my life have i been so positive about my country, never have i seen the west tremble at the fact that my country is on the rise, never have i seen them so anxious to pull us down, from britain wanting to withdraw aids because of gay marriage to us saying they will do same because our president exercized his constitutional right to pardon someone, they blame boko haram attacks on poverty but did not waste time to invade afganistan when the world trade center fell, never have i seen such attacks on the commander in chief of the federal republic of Nigeria, GEJ might not be perfect but when i look back at those who have stired the affairs of this country and those who are desperate to grab it, he is the best among them. May the Almighty God continue to guide, lead and direct you Mr president, may he destroy the plans of those who want to turn us to libya and egypt. God bless Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, God bless Nigeria. 4 Likes |
