Whatever you call him, be thankful to him for being reasonable, and laying a good foundation/precedence (in this aspect), if you know what that means.

Like they say, "common sense is not that common".

And most NLanders posting right now from Nigeria would probably not have this moment, if the President had towed a different line.

Be thankful for little things, probably bigger things would come.

The Jonathanians wants to force PGEJ to our history book. A clueless man who performed the least when compared with dead presidents. They beat their drums that Jonathan conceded defeat and averted conflicts. What was he expected to do, stay glue to power. Probably many would die but Jonathan and his wicked aides will pay dearly. I presumed he remembered Gbagbo and with pressures from the international communities, he was left with little choice but to accept that he has lost.

Jonathan still remains the worst president the country has ever experienced. A country not at war yet unsecured with refugees. People lost their means of livelihood, many lost loved ones and homes, innocent children being kidnapped or slain in their sleep. Yet the wicked Jonathanians would comfort themselves with a clueless and dumb president conceding defeat than hide their heads in shame for their wicked deeds and non-performance. What impact was Jonathan's administration to Nigerians. Our economy flipped and stumbled, corruption overran law enforcement officers, lawlessness and impunity were the order of the day. Ministers and aides acted like demi-gods and raped our country of its resources. Militants and criminals were allotted juicy contracts for electioneering purposes. Our military was politicised and reduced to a debacle of shame and epitomised as a failed institution.

While the wicked partied to stupor, Nigerians watched and waited patiently and today we are happy and grateful to be off the chains of wicked and selfish power mongers. Jonathanians are nothing but automated wicked in full display.

Thank you for this. She needs to put up or shut up. Tell us what he has done specifically to destroy Nigeria and stop generalising. The man did something everyone can be proud off. She needs to ask the northerners were those girls are. They know. Funny boko haram has not had any attacks since buhari won even though non of the national militaries that make up the joint force have announced any new offensives since the right before the election started and ended. Or are boko haram tired of killing because buhari won?

A hero, according to Wikipedia, is

"a character or person, who, in the face of danger and
adversity or from a position of weakness, displays
courage or self-sacrifice"

Another source defines it thus:

"a person who, in the opinion of others, has heroic
qualities or has performed a heroic act and is
regarded as a model or ideal"

Unless Ezekwesili has a different definition of a hero different from the above, then I beg to disagree with her.

For promising to conduct a free and fair election without interfering in the process, and keeping his words: that makes him a hero

Think for a second what would have become of last Saturday's election had the president lost his calm after the card reader failed to capture him and kept him waiting in the sun for over thirty minutes, moreso when his party had advised against the use of the card reader. Had he stormed out of that polling booth, that would have been the end of election that day, and the consequences could only have been imagined. For maintaining his cool in the face of that, he is a hero

For calling GMB and congratulating him(something GMB never did in 2011 and can never do), and thereby averting "goons and baboons" being soaked in blood, he is a hero

For telling his party not to bother contesting the outcome of the election in court to avoid distracting the incoming president, he is a hero

Hate him as much as you choose to do, Mrs Ezekwesili, you cannot take this glorious moment from him. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has set a standard for democracy, not only in Nigeria, but also in Africa. The man is a true democrat and, indeed, our national hero!

THE FURY OF A WOMAN SCORNED! Oby Ezekwesili and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala were in Obasanjos cabinet but after Obasanjos regime Oby was dumped but Yaradua/Jonathan retained Ngozi, ditto Jonathan /Sambo. For not retaining her, Oby doesn't see anything good in Jonathan government ever since. The Chibok girls saga presented her an opportunity to extract her pound of flesh. Madam should know that there are many other capable hands in Nigeria who can equally perform as much as her and even better. Her attacks on Jonathan are borne out of a perceived slight on her person. She should leave Jonathan alone.

Whether Jonathan concedes or not doesn't alter any figure in the result released by Jega. Conceding and even callinh Buhari was even for his own good. I strongly believe that the joint statement by the UK and the US during the collation sent a strong warning to Jonathan else he would be "Gbagbolized."

Indeed. Are we now supposed to forget the monumental and universally acclaimed misrule of GEJ because of one act he was bullied into by the likes of David Cameron, Obama et al? GEJ did not want to leave and was not prepared to leave hence the massive rigging - and we have even seen the video proof - conducted for him in Rivers, Delta, Akwa Ibom et al.

Whether people know it or not, the result, which showed Buhari had won despite the massive rigging of team GEJ, had been known since Sunday. Many moved behind the scene to convince GEJ not to try anything funny and subtle threats were deployed. GEJ, as expected of his self-serving nature, preferred not to piss-off this powerful lobby group. They never wanted to hand over and were willing to do anything to sit tight. Many simply showed GEJ he will be made to account for his action if chaos ensued because he did not want to accept the outcome of an election he clearly lost. GEJ was 'strong-armed' to accept defeat.

I 'liked' what you wrote before I read cos' you always make sense. Cheers.

IBB obviously did not contest the 1993 presidential election
the two major contenders are MKO Abiola and Bashir Tofa,
but IBB's refulsal to hand power over to MKO Abiola the presumed
winner of the election almost plunged this country into a major crises
and this is exactly my point.

sometimes it is sad to know that some of our of the most repected make comments inorder for them to be heard and remain relevant in the Nigerian context.

I can remember when she was the minister of education, what was her achievement. I think at this time fact should be clearly separated from the speech of one who is aggrieved.

She was the same person that said unity school should be privatised. Knowing the fact that the purpose of unity school was to help people from different tribe come together and see themselves as one.

if she made a mistake formerly, she should not correct her mistake by making desperate effort to run someone down in order to write her name history. It is easier said than done. what reform did she make in the educational sector during her time before she was eventually removed?

I am not a fan of Jonathan but for christ sake dont we know the meaning of a hero? Like i said earlier on, at this time, facts should be separated from the speech of one who is aggrieved.
