President Jonathan's Visit To Oau, An Eyewitness' Account(+pics) by johndarey(m): 10:32am On Nov 29, 2014 |
With the disturbance by the lies being spread, i had to write this. Very few people knew when President Jonathan entered oduduwa hall due to the smartness of those security guys who diverted our attention to the landing helicopters at the sports complex(4 in all), one of which we thought Jonathan would come out from. Meanwhile his convoy had already come in through road 7.With this, people decided to wait till the meeting was over, telling the soldiers that they must see their president. Meanwhile, there was a peaceful demonstration. However, it was by the Educational Rights Campaign and not the students' union and it bothered on the below-par educational condition in Nigeria. They only sang and shouted throughout.Nobody threw stones, stick or pure water satchets! ERC was joined by few other students but you can categorically see for yourselves in the pics below that most people including students, and people from town only did everything in their power to see their President. President Jonathan tried to address us but the noise and rushing was just too much to the extent that some guyz fell and the soldiers at one point flared up. The S.U president was able to meet with Mr President, chatted for few minutes and gave him a protest letter, a copy of which is below. After this, he waved to us, got into his vehicle which conveyed him to sports complex. Three of the helicopters took off about 15 minutes before dt which d President got into took off. 30 Likes 7 Shares

what a concocted lie as old as you are..... or let me say you are displaying your partisanship because of your sadistic behaviour I as a student in the campus was there why students protested.... as I have exam at PGLT... in the morning... as accounted for little people know when exactly the President enter... but what's is for sure is that he enter through the gate... as against what people expected. promo keep shouting ""thief"" "thief" as of the time I was there till I went to the mosque for him at prayer..... I was told by clean source that one student threw some at him as it is accounted for by all the students I left there. so why did you see your source ![]() 82 Likes 3 Shares |

Hassan Taiwo Soweto writes on FB Today, i did my part, i made my stand. Happy joining OAU students to show President Jonathan his government and poverty-inducing capitalist policies are not welcomed. He expected a rousing welcome, instead he was confornted with a protest. Fayose got perhaps the biggest embarrassment of his life today. He walked confidently to Ife students expecting to be applauded. I can't yet forget the look of shock on his face as shout of Ole! Ole ! (Thief! Thief!) rented the air. Hastily his security details whisked him away. President Jonathan's convoy was delayed as students sat on the road chanting slogans. Clumsily one by one, the royal fathers made their way out not sure who next would be greeted with shout of "thief!" Those to be pitied (not sure if they even deserve it though) were the hundreds of PDP supporters who had thronged the campus with different banners to welcome Jonathan. They looked dejected, their banners hanging around them. How could they start dancing as they planned with the hundreds of students chanting solidarity songs just beside them? At the end, as the helicopters lifted from the ground, i didn't see a single person waving the President goodbye. It was like good riddance. If my guess is right, someone might soon be fired for fixing OAU on the President's itinery Despite attempts by a wing of the union leadership to sell-out, great Ife students have demonstrated how oppressors and exploiters should be treated. I would do it again anytime, any day. Doing this isn't because we support the APC. Years ago, i carried placards to give Tinubu the same welcome i joined others to give Jonathan today in the same University and at the same Oduduwa hall. I would do it again today just as my organisation, the Education Rights Campaign (ERC), played leading roles in the struggle to defeat the APC attemps to deny the downtrodden public education in LASU. PDP and APC supports the same ruinous capitalist philosophy that has created the embarrassing inequality in Nigeria despite massive oil wealth. Only the building of an alternative political party to fight to end capitalism and enthrone socialism can ensure our problems begin to have genuine solutions. To all those with whom we made the stand against president Jonathan today, Solidarity! 172 Likes 14 Shares |

smallrincowis16:sorry, your English is so bad, I can barely understand what you wrote. it's not your fault, you are just a product of Nigeria's failed educational system. if you want quality education, be ready to pay for it, cheap and quality don't go hand in hand stop fighting for cheap and quality education, cause it is not realistic. don't get me wrong, cause I don't like GEJ either 19 Likes 1 Share |

I will forever hail the ever-militant Student Union of the Great Ife my Alma mater, their grievances is clearly spelt out in the letter signed by executives of the Student Union like we used to do back in the days......the letter explicitly expressed their grouses with the School Authority and not towards His Excellency, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, as the human-demons from the APC side always want us to believe.....I am still waiting for the pictures where Jonathan was booed ![]() ![]() 13 Likes 1 Share |
