Jonathan Is “a Coward, His Conversations Are Unintelligible” – MEND Leader by KORLAR(m): 8:53am On Mar 08, 2015 |
The Leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, MEND, Henry Okah, has blasted President Goodluck Jonathan from his prison cell in South Africa. Okah who was sentenced to 24-years in prison in March 2013 for terrorism, says Jonathan is “timid and a coward.” In an interview with The Nation, the man who President Jonathan once accused of masterminding the attempt on his life during the 2010 Independence anniversary in Abuja said he found it difficult to speak about him (Jonathan) without “saying something uncomplimentary.” Going down memory lane, Okah told The Nation, “I have met President Jonathan. I knew him though not closely when he was the Deputy Governor of Bayelsa State. My cousin Chief (Diepreye) Alamieyeseigha was then governor. “I had a meeting with Jonathan in Pretoria in 2007 when the late President Musa Yar’ Adua sent him to speak with me. He was accompanied by Chief Timipre Sylva. I have spoken to him on occasions. “In one instance, he was traumatized emotionally by the attack on his country home which he was misled into believing I had a hand in. The last time I spoke with him was in April 2010 when he asked for my support personally. Since my recent arrest, I have had no direct contact with him. “It is difficult to speak about President Jonathan without saying something uncomplimentary. I truthfully find him timid and cowardly. His discussions are unintelligible revealing a lack of intellectual depth. “As governor of Bayelsa State, and a man whose home had been violated, I expected him to be angry and indignant at this sacrilegious act. Rather, he was physically trembling, terrified and incoherent as he spoke weeks after the attack.” Okah also said he has been vindicated by Jonathan with his performance since becoming President six year’s ago. “I warned Nigerians about Goodluck Jonathan but some people assumed I was speaking in anger and arrogance,” he said. “Nigerians have now seen President Jonathan for exactly what I told them that he is. There is little difference in his speeches and that of Asari.” Drawing a comparison between Jonathan and his main rival in the March 28 presidential election, General Muhammadu Buhari, Okah said, “I was quite young when General Muhammadu Buhari was in power so I am compelled by this fact to look at him in awe. This has nothing to do with his personality. General Buhari kept quiet for a long time and I have not kept up with him since after he was deposed in a military coup. He does not appear vain and would very likely be a more prudent civilian leader. This is not to say that I would vote for him in any elections as much as I respect him. I am disillusioned with Nigerian politics and have never voted or participated in any form of politics at any level.” He prayed that “Nigeria gets a responsible and sensible president who sees the need to properly address the situation of the North and South in the face of Boko Haram and the Niger Delta issue.” www.today.ng/news/jonathan-is-a-coward-his-conversations-are-unintelligible-lack-intellectual-depth-mend-leader-henry-okah/ |

Don't be surprised !!! * In 2008 when Obasanjo picked GEJ to be Yaradua's running mate who were the people that first kicked against his candidacy? The Ijaws did. Their reason was that the 2 years as governor in Bayelsa he did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Till date, his erra is still termed the worst in Bayelsa. * who was GEJ biggest opposition in becoming Yaradua's running mate? The answer is EDWIN CLARK. The man who today is his mouth piece and who is pretending loves him the most. * when Yaradua made him to be in charge of negotiations with the Niger Delta Militants, who were those who objected and what was their reasons? Asari, Tompolo, and Boyloaf. Their reason being that he was not sincere in the Niger Delta course but only after his pocket. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

One only needs to watch the Amanpour interview and that of Aisha Sasay to confirm this. Even before the Nigerian press, the man quivers, stutters when he speaks, like a nervous school kid. Imagine the gibberish he was spewing to the press man that cornered him when he went to visit IBB. I was so ashamed. It is so shameful watching him tremble before ordinary journalists even though he's the president of the largest black nation on the planet. How long does Jonathan need to develop the courage and confidence of a Commander in Chief?? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Who wants to listen to a convicted fellon serving 24 yrs in jail. I read he tried breaking out with 4 other harden fellons and was bursted. I could see where his intelligence took him, right inside the solitary ward. |

omenka: We know all these. How he ended up being our president it just simply unbelievable. I just pray history forgets about him and Nigeria moves on with a part of Jonathan cut out. I still respect him as my president but truly unhappy with his demeanour, incoherent speeches and performance. |

omenka: My brother, you think people would have mercy on him and relieve him of his current responsibilities. He is truly uninspiring in every way. Amanpour really handled him like a silly kid, so I can imagine how Dasuki and Co run rings around him. God bless him on his journey to Otuoke May 29th. #change #GMB #APC |

Very right. We must really hav wronged God or woteva powers might be to be landed with this guy. Hes totally out of depths. No thanks to the nutters that went for this guy during last elections blinded by sentiments & bigotry, & more disturbing some people still advocatin his comeback. Unfortunately the whole nation suffers when you hav a dunce in charge. The whole world sees Nigerians as dimwits cause of these failures at the highest level of its leadership & why not?.....a leader of any country is a microcosm of the people of that nation. We sure need a hurried departure from this rabble..... omenka: |
