I dont usually comment on topics like this but i have to in this case. Whether you support the new or old adminstration, there is alot to learn from this write up. Don't allow ur friends/relatives stop you from setting a legacy when u ve the opportunity cos when the weather changes some of them will disown you and only ur legacy can save ur reputation. I believe the new administration will learn alot from the mistakes of the previous. No administration is perfect all we need is a better 9ja wia political parties ve different ideologies that will bring abt healthy competition and efficieny in governance. Hoping to see a more capital expenditure based budget next year. 5 Likes 1 Share |

[b]Chief Edwin Clark's public denial of Jonathan barely 5 Months after he lost power is the worst form of betrayal. Abati is right. If Edwin Clark knew Jonathan was weak, which we all knew, he shouldn't have been so combative then in defending him and he shouldn't have been so open now in denying him. Truth is that Jonathan was a mistake of a Leader. Jonathan lacked almost every quality which could define a leader and the worst was that He never grew into a Leader even after spending 16 years at the top echelons of Nigerian politics (Deputy Governor, Governor, Vice president, & ultimately President). Jonathan has a good heart but he is weak, damned too weak to lead a nation like Nigeria. But In spite of his obvious shortcomings, he did his best. Its doubtful if his best was quite good to Nigerians. But who amongst his predecessors lead Nigeria better ![]() Buhari has all the Leadership qualities needed to run a nation like Nigeria (although his age & his poor education are not good). But he can only succeed if he removes tribalism and nepotism from his blood which I doubt he can do. Buhari has assembled a great team as Ministers. If he can realy work with them and not (only) dictate to them, maybe we would fare better..[/b] 7 Likes 1 Share |

It is very unfortunate that a man like Chief Clark could do a 360' on Dr Jonathan that accorded him every privileges while in power. Clark was in the best position to advice and reprimand Jonathan when the latter was in power. Instead he sang his praise only to kick him when GEJ left government. This is a lesson to present and prospective leaders. Your legacy, not your praise-singers will be what will defend you when you leave power. 2 Likes |

People should be allowed to speak their minds, Edwin Clark spoke his mind, the only reason abati is complaining is because it was a negative comment |

So Abati can still right objectively, funny how he lost his golden pen while he was in office, thank God he has finally found it. Only wish he had put it to good use when he had Jonathan ' s ear, maybe Jonathan would have had a chance. Although Baba Clark is a turncoat who would never be trusted by the people he is trying to appease because of his disloyalty to Jonathan, Abati is also guilty of not advising his principal correctly about his utterances and failing to write such good pieces as this in support of his principal while in office. 1 Like |

Failure is truly an orphan. Like Reuben says, what stays after you leave office or power, is your legacy. Legacy here is not the few friends or associates you enriched but the number of institutions and structures you build to benefit the general populace. The question is, what legacy did Jonathan leave behind? 1 Like |

StOla: YOU nailed it! Reuben Abatti: The timing is also auspicious: just when the public is beginning to worry about the direction of the Buhari government, E. K. Clark shows up to lend a hand of support and endorsement. Only one phrase was missing in his statement, and it should have been added: “my son, Buhari.” It probably won’t be too long before we hear the old man saying “I am a statesman, Buhari is my son.” Abatti is not better than the Pa Edwin Clark he is trying to ridicule! We all know what a fine journalist/Editor Abatti was, in his days at Gurdian Newspaper but one he got that job to "defend perfidy", he lost all sense of reasoning! So, if Abatti is trying to tell us his has regained his senses, why then should we or do we not expect Pa Edwin Clarke to regain his? What is good for Abatti is also good for the "fine" old clown. In my own Dictionary, the word HYPOCRITE describes both Abatti and Pa Clark. Nuff said. Lastpage! 1 Like |

Pa Edwin Clark is a very upright at all times. A good father does not hide the wrongs of a child, otherwise he would bear the brunt of pampering in future. There is no comparison between GEJ and our President Buhari. Please, Mr. Abati, call a spade a spade. |
