Lai would've been correct if d meeting was not for security matters. Jonathan was at d meeting as president to whom security matters are reported to, he wasn't there as PDP candidate. and he shouldn't abandon his duty as chief security officer just because he's contesting an election.

stop being bias, hw do u separate the two? i indeed it was on secuirty then discuss with the millitary chiefs alone, when INEC is summoned, all other parties representative shd be present period! the desperation of GEJ neva ceases to amaze me.

You just don't call anyhow person to a security meeting with the service chiefs to discuss classified information.

Ever heard of security clearance?

Jonathan is the president of Nigeria and is in the best position to plan for our nation. His very wise decision to delay the election have seen Boko haram on the run and many Nigerians who would have been disenfranchised had the election held in February have been able to collect their PVCs.
Ride on GEJ!.

Please read the constitution and the electoral act vry well, the ppresidency has an exclusive power over the INEC chairman. He has the power to summon the INEC chairman or any political appointee...is not enough for u to come here and make noise......

Commmon sense will tell from anology that an umpire is in all sense of the word independent as it clearly applies in football.

if is just for security matter then INEC shouldn't be there since INEC chief is not security chief

or if Jonathan had wanted to do it in a matured and unbiased way he could have called the presence of buhari too (since he buhari knows too well about the security matters and is also a candidate in the election just like Jonathan )

or better still he could have requested the presence of elder statesmen in the meeting because only God knows what went down in the meeting between PDP(Jonathan and security chiefs ) and INEC chief

Nigeria did not start with Jonathan but he surely is doing his best to destroy and end it all. Latest is his romance with ethnic militia whose well known life objective is to dismember Nigeria - MASSOB, OPC and most probably Boko Haram ( at least before the election season).
Was it Samuel Johnson who said " Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel?" - in the case of GEJ his last refuge is patriotism to criminal ethnic Militia, to cause mayhem for his insatiable ambition to continue mismanaging the country.

PassingShot:
Given the chance, GEJ/PDP will scuttle this rescheduled election. Why summoning the match umpire to a meeting with Security Chiefs without other parties.

Jonathan is determined to receive Gbagbo treatment with the way he is going about this election.

He should remember that those who make peaceful change impossible make violent change inevitable.

I fear the worst for Nigeria at this juncture.
if he wants gbagbo we shall give it to him in overdose

It will be a great disservice to Nigerians if Jega is not given query by FG. Jega has failed and as a matter of urgency he should apologize to Nigerians and resign his position.

Shut up your mouth if you don't have what to type.

He's d president....and he wasn't there as a PDP flag bearer... He went there to ensure that the security of the inec officials will be fully protected..

Maybe next time...GEJ will ensure that the APC will get themselves involve as GEJ wants to have a meeting with his dear wife!....in his private room!.... That will do!

I Thought you said GEJ is solely responsible for security abi? then let him do his job.When it comes to blame game, you blame him for failing to provide security and now when it comes to decision making, you want to take part.

yea, when its strictly on security...this has something to do with election. The decision they arrive @ will surely affect other parties.

The meeting had nothing to do with the election.... It has everything to do with the security of the ad-hoc officials.... Just wondering why APC's r so tasty for power that they even want to resume responsibility when it isn't yet 2019!

This meeting was about security in relation to elections. As such, representatives from both parties contesting should have been there for transparency - particularly because the Umpire was in attendance.

If it had nohing to do with elections, Jega should have been left out. As long as Jega was there, it was about elections.

I wonder why the Jonathan administration is mortgaging the future of our children. The last one was loan to prosecute the war on insurgency which the senate gave approval now is another 200m. Monies are squandered by the ruling party to prosecute electioneering campaigns all in an effort to come back by all means. This is a total disservice to the populace who voted them into power. Our resolve is simple enough is enough. All I ask for is a change.

Assuming...I tend to agree with u.... Don't you think its even better and even reasonable that this be done without the APC? Because...its gone past time to trust the APCs!! Considering the fact that APC is doing everything possible to downgrade this perfect administration?....
.
.
They'll never see anything good in this administration... Trying to spot every single mistake they see...and campaigning with it..... If you think APC is fully right...then I am sorry to tell you that u don't know what this administration have suffered from the hands of this same APC...so they don't need to be involve in the systematic tackling of insecurity affairs!

Same Jonathan claimed security chiefs didn't seek his consent before alerting Jega that security can not be guaranteed for the february pools.

What happened to his presidential duties then?

Isn't Jega at the helm of being responsible for the safety of the ad-hoc officials?.... Just so you know...Jega is liable for the safety of his staffs...and he needs to discuss the security credence from the sitting president...
