OBJ, Buhari, IBB, Others Shun Jonathan’s Mid-term Report by miklos23: 12:39pm On May 30, 2013
President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday in Abuja, presented a scorecard of his administration’s achievements in the last two years, where former President Olusegun Obasanjo; his then deputy, Atiku Abubakar; former Heads of State, Muhammadu Buhari, Ibrahim Babangida and Abdulsalami Abubakar; and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal , were conspicuously absent.
However, at the International Conference Centre, Abuja, venue of the event, were: Vice President Namadi Sambo; the First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan; former Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon; former President, Alhaji Shehu Shagari; former Head of the Interim National Government, Chief Ernest Shonekan; a former Chief of General Staff, General Oladipo Diya, the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), ministers, presidential aides and captains of industry.

Foreign dignitaries in attendance were: Jesse Jackson from the United States; former Liberian leader, Amos Sawyer, and members of the Diplomatic Corps. At the event, which was broadcast live on national network television stations, President Jonathan cautioned critical Nigerians who may want to assess the administration’s achievements, presented in a 250-page document, not to be subjective in their assignment. President Jonathan, in particular, took exceptions to the average marks awarded the Ministers of National Planning, Samsudeen Usman, and his Trade and Investment counterpart, Olusegun Aganga, by a section of the media, arguing that both ministries had done well.

He said, “In terms of Foreign Direct Investments that they (Trade Ministry) attracted to this country by (their) activities, it has never happened. In spite of security challenges, there is so much interest of businessmen wanting to come to Nigeria. Before now, that ministry was almost like a dead end. Until Samsudeen came on board, we didn’t even know that we have a planning ministry. But these two ministries are scored average. I asked: what are the criteria used?” According to him, “Today, we are marking the end of the first 24 months, which is our mid-term review, and my duty is to formally present a document that all Nigerians will be able to read and assess us.
