Too many conspiracies;.
Election 2015 campaign:
Once APC Alliance was formed by SW and north, Doyin Okupe and Reuben Abati kept mum while Lai dished out all lies against President Jonathan.!!!!!

Northern people wanted Presidency, therefore too many big politicians of north pulled out of PDP.

Jonathan was literally alone with a few big tine politicians.

Again, the countries of the multinational oil companies wanted a northerner so as to protect their earnings.

. You need not write any book to defend yourself as to your loss of 2015 general election. We all knew what happened.For the record I will say as follows: in 2011 you were given the grace of having a tenure.A treaty was signed on this with other PDP leaders including Obasanjo.The north was appealed to because it was their tenure you were given in 2011. in 2015 it was the tenure of the north you were told not to contest but you refused.Obasanjo was angry and the entire north.That was why OBJ left PDP with his followers including Oyinlola. when you made the party your sole business. That was why you were voted out in 2015. In 2017 you came back and begged OBJ in company of Oyedepo and other christian politicians So you were the architect of your downfall in 2015. So stop misleading us with your lies in your doctored report.We all know the true report.

Re: How Some PDP Governors, Northern Leaders Made Me Lost Re-election – Jonathan by 9gerian: 4:39pm On Nov 20, 2018
TBH GEJ goofed on being on top of things going on in his govt.

He gave everyone too much free hand that people just continued to abuse at will. In a systematic country, that would have been splendid due to strong institutions. In countries like Nigeria, it was an invitation to disaster.

IBB put it rightly when he said GEJ was only inexperienced not incompetent.

On Obama, GEJ is right. The US had just legalized all LGBT rights, and were very vindictive with nations that failed to toe the line. GEJ at the time sponsored and signed an anti gay bill criminalizing homosexual practices in Nigeria. US abruptly stopped buying our crude oil, amidst several other measures taken to frustrate GEJ's government.

And yes, for dearing to contest for presidency and win, some northern leaders promised to make the country ungovernable. Insurgency suddenly gained massive traction as a result.

GEJ tried in vain to appease the North with several appointments, projects and other measures but it was never enough.

GEJ induced some self inflicted injuries with the fuel subsidy saga that pitched him against the people instead of against identified cabals who were defrauding the nation through fake fuel imports and diversion of petroleum products. He also removed his number 1 performing "minister of power" Barth Nnaji, whose sector could have given him an overwhelming campaign strategy. And yes, any government that can kill the hydraheaded monster of epileptic power supply in Nigeria will be the hero in deed!!! Btw I told friends and associates that Fashola (from the day he was appointed) would not be able to solve the problem in the power sector. Only Barth has demonstrated that he understood the problem of the power sector at the time (the cheese may have even been moved by now)!

In all, GEJ will always be remembered for saving the nation from the impending carnage during the 2015 presidential elections. Let's hope other leaders starting with PMB take a cue from him!

He added that it was during his administration that a Nigerian, Akinwumi Adesina (his Minister of Agriculture), became the president of the African Development Bank for the first time.

It is on record your wife called them Almajiri.

In the North, your deputy called the then opposition a Christian party whilst down south you called them an Islamic party.

No mind the ogogoro master . Trying to rewrite history.

Himself and wife coupled with his associates did their worse to sink their already abysmal performance.


Have we all forgotten how Jonathan told us to keep faith with bombings happening North and South? That such also happen world over. Meaning it was natural.

Or we forget how daily it was a tale of one brazen corruption or the other. Or the fact that his own ministers were painting doomsday even when oil was at $70.

Or have we forgotten that banks and almost all institutions were closing at 12pm back in 2014/2015 because of no energy and non availability of diesel to power their generators?

He can write utter rubbish in his book but it still doesn't change the fact that even he knew he couldn't win a second term and was schemig for a single term of 6 years as early as 2012. He turned back when the opposition to that was much and no one supported such.


Even in 2015, he didn't want to run for fear of loosing . Had to take his wife to be pushing him to rerun. I am sure if PDP had a primary for presidential election. Jonathan would have lost. That's to show you how low his popularity was.

We have always had shallow leaders but Jonathan takes the cake with his cluelessness followed by Buhari(at least Buhari still has one or two ministers with common sense) but the entire cabinet save for the Agric minister back then weren't even qualified to be high school principals.


Imagine having Wike as the Minister for Education. God! We have had it rough in this country.

I will not buy the book. Excerpts so far released can basically be summarised as "I lost because it was everyone else's fault, not me; Obama, John Kerry, Northern govs, OBJ, at al".
The fact is, the only office GEJ contested for in HIS LIFE, he lost. His "fresh breath" was alcohol laced. The commendable parts of his govt ( NO-I, Adesina....err where else ?) policies have been continued. The disasters ? How long have you got ? BH/NE, Chibok and the refusal to act swiftly because of an ongoing clout chasing WEF-Africa event, massive military arms procurement corruption, naked money laundering on a "fantastic" scale, the largely fraudulent Amnesty program, SURE-P, NNPC under the fagin-fingered Diezani, and quite frankly his deceptive and sly regard towards whether he would honour the agreement to finish Yar'Ardua's tenure. And don't forget that noisy harridan of his wife.
Politically, he was a neophyte, who was only accorded a modicum of respect because of the office he held. GEJ couldn't win a HoR seat today, left to his own devices.
Nice man though.

Jonathan has not changed at all. It was Obasanjo, in one of his open letters to you, who alleged that you were training snipers and that he (Obasanjo) among other leaders opposed to your inept government, were on the hit list of snipers for assassination! Why can’t you be bold to mention Obasanjo’s name?

Also, who were the so-called leaders from the North who opposed you? Who were the PDP Governors, members of your own party, who opposed you?

You foolishly wrote about your religion and ‘where you come from’? Was it not the same people you accuse of using these two sentiments that voted massively for you in 2011 Were you a Muslim and a Northerner when the same people voted for you in 2011? Was your name Abdullahi Balarabe, from Sokoto state, when they voted you in 2011?

When your garrulous, uncouth, loud-mouth wife on national TV insulted Northerners as being daft and were breeding children “born throway”, did you caution her?

When your insane wife unintelligently made a generalized statement on national TV that a whole section of Nigerians were street beggars (almajiri), what did you expect them to do?

Jonathan, face the truth, you failed and was voted out for the following reasons:

1. You ran a completely laissez-faire FG where you left your Ministers, heads of agencies, Service Chiefs, your tribal warlords, etc to do as they liked! There was a complete dereliction of duty on your part. Everyone messed up right in your face and you did nothing!

2. Your personal flaw, although no human being is perfect, was used against you. You were too meek, gentle, and weak to have ruled Nigeria. Your appointees, such as Diezani saw this clearly and they ran riot!

3. You played the ethnic card- riff-raffs and illiterate ex-militants such as Tompolo, Asari Dokubo (where is that toad who said that Buhari will never be President?), Boyloaf, and others, including senile old man, Edwin Clarke, issued threats to other Nigerians in a reckless manner and you did not caution them. When Obasanjo brought this ethic bias up with you, you insulted him to no end.

4. You ran a completely corrupt government to the extent that billions of raw, mint-cash currencies (Naira and US dollars) were being carted away from the CBN! For instance, I attended the Akintola Williams Foundation Lecture at the MUSON Centre a few years ago and a former Deputy Governor of the CBN and a Minister under your government, Dr. Shamsudeen Usman, alleged that he was shocked to have confirmed that under your government, the CBN became the unofficial vault of PDP politicians and some other riff-raffs.

5. You played the religious card as though you were the first Christian President or Head of State of Nigeria. The hitherto-respected and celebrated Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, the umbrella body of ALL Christians and the Body of Christ in Nigeria, became your toy. You so much bastardized CAN that its President, Ayo Oritsejafor, easily became the Public Relations Officer (PRO) of the PDP and your government! Sacrilege! Other Christians who felt that their association, once led by vibrant Cardinal Olubunmi Okogie and Cardinal John Olorunfemi Onaiyekan, very well-respected Church leaders, was being used in so brazenly partisan manner, and other Nigerians, disliked you for this, and voted against you.

6. During the campaigns, in the North, your equally docile and completely useless Vice President, Mohammed Namadi Sambo, told a campaign audience that they should not vote APC because their VP candidate, Yemi Osinbajo, was a Pastor and that he will force them into Christianity! Meanwhile, Jonathan’s people and campaign organization, told voters in the South-East and South-South that the same APC was an Islamic, Boko Haram party!

In summary, Obama, PDP Governors, Northern leaders, and the plethora of people and organizations you blamed in your useless book did not cause your political downfall, YOU and YOUR UNCOUTH WIFE nailed your cross!

You turned 61 today, happy birthday former President Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, a gentle but very WEAK man and leader!
PS: Admin, please change the title to “made me LOSE re-election”, not “made me LOST re-election” owing to the past tense “made” which preceded ‘lose’.
You nailed it bro.

You're actually correct that there were missing NNPC billions and fuel subsidy racketeering. I dont think anyone thinks too highly of the previous PDP govt.

Problem now is that the subsidy scam is literally still on and NNPC corruption is still waxing strong. The maina thing hangs over the govts head. Not to speak of Ganduje and co.

Both parties are roughly same thing. Granted, the apc is less brazen with their misdeeds, but corrupt nonetheless.

This country is fast approaching the tolerance threshold for bad governance... we either make real changes or face dire consequnces. The present lot of politicians are all hellbound.
