Let me repeat that as far as the issue of corruption, security and oil stealing is concerned, it is only apt to say when the guard becomes the thief, nothing is safe, secure nor protected in the house.

Onlytruth: The only thing this letter tells me is that Jonathan should remember the country he is leading - a place where gentleness is seen as weakness.
He needs to show his fangs fast, else I see a plot thickening against him.
Every rogue is crawling out of the woodwork to insult him and the rest of Nigerians with all types of sanctimonious CRAP.

If I were him, I would quickly have a chat with my TOP security personnel (military,intelligence, etc).
What he faces is not political opposition; what he faces is a SECURITY THREAT.
If I were him, I would IMMEDIATELY declare marshal law, first send those thieves in the national assembly home. They would be lucky if I don't jail some of them for grand theft using a military tribunal!

Next I would convene an internationally supervised conference on Nigeria's future.

Some people feel that they own Nigeria, and that only they can determine Nigeria's future. They see themselves as the gods of Nigeria, while others are hewers of wood and drawers of water. It started with Tambuwal, next CBN governor, next this never-do-well that sold Nigeria to the highest bigger during his two terms, and even schemed for a third term.

Jonathan should not pussyfoot around anymore, else Ironsi would be better than him.

See brainless comment.

To think that close associates of the president reason like this, it is not surprising they have managed to alienate so many people.

Except a holisitc approach towards eradication of corruption is put in place, we are just joking.?

Corruption does not start with GEJ and will not end with him except something drastic is done.

Eradication of corruption begins with you and I


Who will put in place a holistic approach?

Who will do something drastic?
Re: Obasanjo Accuses Jonathan Of Promoting Corruption by Nobody: 6:02pm On Dec 11, 2013
Let me put it that talks, loose and serious, abound about possible abuse and misuse of the military and the legitimate security apparatus for the unwholesome personal and political interest to the detriment of honor, dignity, oath and professionalism of these honorable and patriotic forces. Let me urge the authorities not to embark on such destructive path for an important element of our national make-up. The roles of the military and security agencies should be held sacrosanct in the best interest of the nation. Again let not history repeat itself here.

Hmmmmm shocked shocked

hmmm...so there are really humans who think like Jonathan true true??so wat happens after u send d whole of national assembly home?u put ijaw people ehn?reminds me of d lecturers sack threat...hmm...so u would channel d military strength to terrorising ur enemies avi?while Boko Haram keeps bombing rightcool...now I know Jonathan isn't alone in his 'dumbness'...there are others like him

What I gave was a STRATEGY not a tactic. If he is 10% as intelligent as the ape of Ota, he should be able to pull it off easily.
The way Nigeria is currently constituted makes it EXTREMELY HARD for someone from SE or SS to lead Nigeria.

Right now, the only "crime" Jonathan has committed is to dream of ruling beyond 2015.
Obasanjo ruled Nigeria like a military dictator (like I said he had to because of how the North shaped the 1999 constitution). Yar adua continued in the same tradition. Jonathan will be the biggest fool to think he can rule the way he is ruling, allowing every oaf to insult him and Nigerians.

Now you know that you are the dumb one here. lol

Does our constitution permit 3rd term? when you are sworn in do you vow to defend the constitution or not? So OBJ swears to defend the constitution and now went behind to try to amend same constitution for personal gain .


so a few men will now come and say GEJ verbally told them he will seek only 1 term hence he should no longer contest even when the constitution permits him. Abeg make we hear word.

OBJ, we all understand ur tricks to woo Nigerians against d president but you will not succeed because there is GOD who always vindicates d innocent.

The power mafia holding nigeria down brought obj to power,obj became power drunk and demanded to be made a part of the cabal. This was granted after much threats from obj to topple the applecart. Obj now a member of this cabal can nolonger control his boy,He starts playing to the gallery using d very press he told us he ignores and doesn't read there papers during his tenure as president. Now they want to whip up the sentiments of the masses and use us as a pressure band to retrieve their selfish hold on power and continue the rampage and plundering. .I really shake my head @ the pple who are nt wise enough to see thru there shenanigans and those who believe that any of these have anything to do with the welfare of the masses.The likes of oBJ,ibb,abdulsalami,amechi,wammakka,tambuwal,lamido,tinubu,elrufai and that biggot buhari in saner climes and countries will be either behind bars or given the rawlings treatment.

If GEJ decides to fight corruption today will OBJ escape? Or Who are we looking at when we talk about corruption in Nigeria? is it the current minister of aviation you will hold, who met a decayed aviation sector? If GEJ want to fight corruption Will tambuwal, Tinubu, IBB, etc, be free? When are we going to leave sentiments and face the truth?

Yesterday it was tambuwal, who spoke about GEJ's corruption, today it is OBJ. Who is fooling who? Where is Faruk Lawan? Please Saint Tambuwal, answer this question. Chief OBJ what happens to your 3rd term bid and your Ghana must go bag?

Please stop all these political ranting!
funshint: Obj might not be a saint but what he said are very valid. GEJ has been practically silent to corruption. Its gotten so worse that anytime anybody is accused of corruption, some disgruntled aides of the president will turn it into tribal war. During OBJs era a lot of heads rolled due to the anti-curruption campaign of those days starting with people from his region; S.M Afolabi(National I.D card scam), Tafa Balogun(former IG), Bode George(NPA scam), Sunday Einhdero, Chief Babalola&Femi Fani Kayode(former Ministers of Aviation)... Nobody raised alarm of tribal victimization because the Yorubas don't condole corruption even if you're the son of a king but under GEJs administration tribal sentiments has been at its peak when people are accused of corruption esp. from the SE of the country. GEJ only claims to fight corruption on paper. It's even a big dent on the president that he still has someone like Stella Oduah as a cabinet minister after the body of allegations against her. This is thesame President who didn't waste time in removing the Court of Appeal President(Justice Ayo Salami) just because he wasn't working for the interest of his party. Jonathans tenure will go down to be the most corrupt in the history of this country. How did we get here??!! I weep for this country!!!

Re: Obasanjo Accuses Jonathan Of Promoting Corruption by jackal001: 6:44pm On Dec 11, 2013
Sincerely speaking this is a well thought-out write up by Obasanjo. We all know that he is not a saint and in at least one aspect, did not toe the path of honour as he is now asking Jonathan to do. Am talking about his denial of a third-term bid which we all know was real. That being said, let us see this step as that of an elder who has been there and can sit and see far beyond and ahead of those who are standing and let us take it that he has now come to his senses.

When I read a particular part talking about 'Balkanizing' Nigeria it hit me like a thunderbolt! Can we imagine what war is like? The memories of Biafra are still here with us, even physically (bullet holes in palm tree trunks in my village are constant reminder of that ugly past for example). Can we take a look at Libya, Egypt, Syria, C.A.R etc now?
My God, would our president listen to the voice of reasoning? I have always seen and known him to be a tribalist from the onset. Take a look at this names - Allison Madueke, Samson Siasia, Late Andrew Azazi, Kingsley Kuku, Timi Alaibe, Government Ekpemukpolo (aka Tompolo), all got Federal jobs and they all have one thing in common - All are from Bayelsa state (one of the smallest state in Nigeria by size & population). Well one can argue that Siasia's own had some form of merit in it. The late Azazi had a serious case of tampering with federal armoury/gun-running but our president still went ahead to appoint him, though he was later kicked out for telling the president the truth about situation of things in the country. Mr. President further went ahead to grant state pardon to Alams who still has corruption charges hanging on his neck in the UK, just because he is from Bayelsa. SMH

OBJ is surely not a saint but he is definitely speaking the T-R-U-T-H!!!
Please sit up our dear President PLEASEEEEEEEE

PDP is still the main party in the North.
The only thing for GEJ is to strike a deal with the North for 2019 (that's if GEJ intends to go for a 2nd).
I have friends from Kaduna, Plateau, Gombe, Taraba, Adamawa, Bauchi who will die for GEJ and they are all Northerners.
Re: Obasanjo Accuses Jonathan Of Promoting Corruption by callmenow: 7:08pm On Dec 11, 2013
I have seen Obasanjo and Jonathan together twice this year. In February this year in London, during OBJ foundation Launch. Again this summer at Abuja. They seemed very close. My informants at Aso Rock also tells me that each time OBJ is in Abuja, he goes straight to Aso Rock without appointment. I know that there is dialogue between these two men. They have always been diplomatic to each other despite the public spats between their current and former aides. Jonathan reveres OBJ, and gives him unfettered access. If these quotes are attributed to OBJ, we need OBJ to step up to claim it in it;s entirety. I like OBJ for so many reasons. But however he is the architect of corruption in Nigeria. Please see my earlier comments. I have seen Jonathan in Abuja, London and New York. Similarly with OBJ. I know that Jonathan is more polished that OBJ anytime. The presidency has never been a one man operation. The presidency of Nigeria is a 500 personnel operation. Jonathan happens to be the head honcho. Boss of all Bosses. If OBJ and NL notices any malfeasance by any civil or public servant. They must report same to a constituted authority. They then follow it up like in other civilisations. Rumours and unattributed sources of information demeans every Nigerian. Globally, people see Jonathan as an agile and capable president. Yet a minority of Nigerians label Jonathan a 419 president. Which way Nigeria? If Jonathan is behind 419 since 1985, then let us see the evidence. If the CME, Dr. Iweala is very corrupt, let us see some incontrovertible evidence. If Mrs Madueke is a reptilian kleptomaniac, let us see any evidence. Why should Jonathan act on rumours and unsubstantiated character assassinations? OBJ treated the presidency like a fiefdom. Yet Jonathan last month rejected a so called Birthday party for him and asked his friends not advertise or wish him anything on the newspapers. Little things impress me.

No. OBJ MADE IT PUBLIC FOR A REASON. THE CALIPHATE HAD ALWAYS SURRENDERED POWER TO OBJ AT EVERY TURN SINCE 1976 AFTER THE COUP THAT KILLED MURITALA MOHAMMED. Obj wants power returned to the Caliphate group NOW. BUT OBJ JUST THE CULTIVATE MORE WAHALA FOR NIGERIA.
