14 Achievements Of Dr Goodluck Ebere Jonathan-streetnews by StreetNews: 6:36am On Aug 07, 2015 |
The Goodluck Jonathan administration has been “silently transforming Nigeria from its dark ages of underdevelopment to a 21st century economic and political force,” Mr. Nnawetanma writes. Mr. Nnawetanma has completed a list of implementations of the Goodluck Jonathan administration he considers to be a progress. 1. Promotion and practice of true democracy by creating an enabling environment where people from diverse backgrounds and with divergent views and opinions can be accommodated. Under the watch of Goodluck Jonathan administration, the APC was registered by INEC as a mega opposition party big enough to challenge the PDP at both state and national levels. This would have been unthinkable some years back. 2. Conduct of free and fair elections in the country, including the 2011 poll which was adjudged to be the most credible election of its magnitude that has ever been conducted in the country, though it was not without its flaws. Unlike in other administrations, the Goodluck Jonathan administration has given a free hand to the country’s electoral umpire, INEC, to perform its statutory duties. 3. Relative non-interference with electoral and judicial matters. This is evident in the number of governorship elections that have been won both at the polls and in the court by opposition parties in Anambra, Imo, Osun states, among others. 4. Liberalization of the press and guaranteeing the freedom of speech in a country where the stifling of the press and suppression of the citizens’ right to freedom of speech used to be the norm, a legacy of over 30 years of military rule. The existence of vocal anti-government media houses and critics would have culminated in some high-profile assassinations some years back, but today citizens are free to air their views whenever and wherever they like just like any other sane country. 5. Opening up of Nigeria to the global business community and becoming Africa’s number one destination of foreign investors. In the first six months of 2014, a total of US$9.70 billion or N1.51 trillion flowed into the national economy as foreign direct investments (FDI). 6. Under the Goodluck Jonathan administration, Nigeria rebased it’s GDP for the first time in over a decade to become the largest economy in Africa, overtaking South Africa and Egypt in the process. 7. Proceeds from Nigeria’s non-oil exports rose to 2.97 billion by the end of 2013, up from 2.3 billion in 2010. 8. Initiation of the YOUWIN program in 2011. The Youth Enterprise with Innovation in Nigeria (YOUWIN) program aims to generate over 100,000 jobs for innovative unemployed youths across the country in the course of three years. It is currently in its third year. 9. Nigerians are now a step closer to being fully integrated into the international e-commerce community with the approval and reinclusion of Nigeria as one of the Paypal- compliant countries after being banned from using the service at the peak of the advanced fee fraud (419 scams). With Paypal, Nigerians can now pay for goods and services online from anywhere in the world. 10. Goodluck Jonathan administration is the one behind the revival of the dead automotive industry in Nigeria. Global auto giants like Peugeot, Nissan and Hyundai now either assemble or wholly manufacture small cars, Sport Utility Vehicles, trucks and buses at various locations in Nigeria. In addition to that, Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company (IVM), Nigeria’s flagship indigenous automaker, has begun the sale of their first made-in-Nigeria cars and SUVs in August 2014. 11. Under the Goodluck Jonathan administration, Nigeria became the first country in West Africa to host the World Economic Forum (WEF) in 2014. It was also the most successful World Economic Forum for Africa (WEFA) in history, boasting of a global reach of 2.1 billion people according to estimates. 12. Africa’s richest man Aliko Dangote’s net worth increased from US$2.1 billion at the start of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan’s administration to US$23 billion in 2014, making him Forbes’ richest black person in the world and the overall 26th richest in the world. He attributed this mammoth increase in his monetary worth to Goodluck Jonathan administration favourable economic policies. 14. Add yours.

15. Entrenched a culture of unrestrained and uncontrolled corruption and impunity among public officers. 16. Sabotaged our refineries by starving them of crude oil so as to continue the corrupt and fraudulent oil swaps and offshore processing agreements (OPA). 17. Caused the death of hundreds of young and innocent Nigerian applicants in the Immigration job scam. 18. Denied the kidnapping of the Chibok girls for almost two months before making any effort to rescue them which all failed. 19. Destroyed the Nigerian Armed Forces with massive corruption in arms purchases and killing the morale of our officers, to the point where they were so frustrated at their neglect that they opened fire on a senior officer. 20. Embarrassing Nigeria on the international scene with the disgraceful begging for a phone call with the President of Morocco who snubbed him, causing a scandal which eventually led to them withdrawing their Ambassador from Nigeria. Shall we continue? 8 Likes 1 Share |

The OPs is bias and as clueless as the former President who did nothing apart from causing more division among ethic and religious ground. To cap it up with the most corrupt government we ever had . |

It is a difficult task to be a leader, especially in a multi-ethnic country like Nigeria, with diverse interests. GEJ did his best though was not without some expensive leadership blunders, just like the current administration. However, I will not forget in a hurry his giant strides in the North, agricultural policies, automobile policy, resuscitation of railway, etc. 1 Like |
