i was beginning to wonder. people read with their brains upside down. lack of political will didn't mean Jonathan never wanted to implement it. she meant that the forces surrounding the opposition they faced from the government of the regions. The most important thing is that NOI proposed to restart the savings and presented the propasal to her boss, GEJ who agreed to begin the process. they were vehemently opposed by the Amaechi's governors forum who went as far as getting a court injunction to stop NOI from further depositing monies into an account that is not recognized by law. Now the question i ask is do u expect a sitting president to defy court orders? If Jonathan had stubbornly went ahead to implement the order. does that speak well of president who expects every other Nigerian to be law abiding.? 4 Likes 5 Shares |

theshadyexpress: my brother pls don't bother replying them. they are a lost course. i wonder, if Amaechi and his gang had trust issues Jonathan's regime in safeguarding the monies, why couldn't they have opted for seperate account to be operated by them? we all seem to blame NOI and GEJ no one seems to be blaming the ex governors for their stiff opposition towards that critical issues of national importance. |

chukwudi44: I am sorry to say but you guys talk like illiterates, NOI had the political will to save but could not put political structures in place to ensure savings are guaranteed. So you expect NOI to just inform the governors that she wants to save their part of the revenue and she can now start deducting any amount she likes from the federation accounts and she can can spend the money unilaterally and inform the governors later if the ask questions. If you say Jonathan had the political will to save, did the government attempt to change the laws to ensure savings? Did Jonathan proposed a system of savings acceptable to all stakeholders of the federation accounts? Did Jonathan send an amendment to the constitution to enshrine savings. Did Jonathan lobby the governors, the national assembly and his party on the need to save? read this from Soludo;
You see, madman iweala is just throwing excuses around for her incompetence. 10 Likes |

/ Jonathan was a mistake. He was never ambitious nor prepared to become a President. Obasanjo looked for unassuming stooges after failing the 3rd Term bid and found the puppets in sickly Yar'Adua and shadowy Jonathan. Just like a bad product marketted so well that it got good reviews,gullible Nigerians fell for the antics of paid PR firms who sold Jonathan as a breathe of fresh air. From Immigration scandal to Oduah and co. scandals, Jonathan remained aloof as every politician became a merchant of loot. Nemo dat quod non habet. People clamoured for leadership qualities that Jonathan did not possess. In comparing Jonathan's cluelessness to Buhari's aloofness, Nigerians tend to forget that bad leadership in any form will never lead to greatness. Jonathan was a mess. Buhari is not any better. What went wrong? Most people are not concerned with the answers to this puzzle. They still erroneously believe that it is about PDP or APC. In choosing between Jonathan and Buhari, Nigerians wanted to make a choice for the lesser of two evils. Glaring fact remains that they were both bad products. A popular adages says, "fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me". What will the person who coined the dictum think of Nigerians who have been fooled multiple times and continue to manifest willingness to be fooled more? \ 4 Likes 2 Shares |

masterblogger:A very very lame attempt at exonerating GEJ. Accusing APC governors of being responsible for GEJ being unable to save has to be the lamest attempt at exonerating GEJ and playing a blame game. If as commander-in-chief, APC governors can tell or control GEJ to squander Nigeria's savings, the this speaks volumes of the unsuitability and incompetence of GEJ as a leader; this allegation even further indicts Jonathan. Now to deflate this folly of an excuse, as at the time in question, there were far more (over 22) PDP governors and all governors manipulated GEJ and retrieved their states' share of the funds. How this automatically becomes 'APC' governors is mind boggling and plain stupidd. Secondly, the reason why pressure was mounted on GEJ to release the money is because GEJ was illegally dipping his hands into the collective funds without informing the governors. So the governors simply lost confidence in GEJ for holding their money, hence they requested it be given to them. Thirdly, the money in question was over $20billion. The national sharing formula gives about 52% of these funds to the FG. So if the states decided to pull off their 48%, can some of you desperate PDP smart-asses kindly explain to us if APC governors also used some form of juju to charm GEJ into squandering the over $10billion which was the FG's share? Finally and in conclusion, NOI was spot on with her statement, it was in black and white, it was something we all knew and it doesnt take more than basic elementary education to discern this. When this same ECA pot was introduced under OBJ, the governors fought and fought OBJ and even took him to court for being a dictator. Similarly, the governors also fought and fought Yaradua and also took him to court to break the pot and share the money, but OBJ and Yaradua wouldnt budge because they had the political will to save and they understood what it meant to stand-your-ground as a leader in a chaotic country like Nigeria. GEJ eventually gets in and shares the money (only 48% gone) and he then proceeds to squander the remaining 52% on God knows what. And today, some desperate jobbers are trying to tell us it was APC governors who jazzed GEJ. Ekpas! |

Isn't it paradoxical that the more knowledge is available at you fingertips, the more ignorant people are- and they demonstrate that ignorance so shamelessly and arrogantly.

theshadyexpress: And you heard what you wanted to hear. I was following developments in January 2010 when Jonathan used the ECA to bribe Governors to solidify his power base. Once he opened the honey pot, the bears knew he was a weak President and held him to ransom over the ECA for the rest of his tenure. It all started with a bribe. Why didn't the Governors hold OBJ to ransom over the ECA. A weak President ransomed the future of this country for his personal progress and una dey hear dey yarn opaks. No be today Governors dey disturb OBJ to share that account with them. Jonathan was the first to do it willingly. If there was any will to save in that reprobate thief, why didn't he save the FG portion of the ECA? The ECA should hold $180bln in savings today based on official NNPC stats. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

winterfell007: The issue is not defying courts order. NOI clearly states that that they could save under OBJ, but the political will was not there under GEJ. Questions are. What happened to the FGN share of the ECA. What happened to our foreign reserves under GEJ. GEJ hard the opportunity to save, but he lacks the political will to do it. 5 Likes |

I seriously believe madam Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is free because she is cooperating with PMB government and leaking some facts about the "Ineffectual Buffon" to PMB. That's what gave her a soft landing, and I believe OBJ is behind the deal. Madam Ngozi, can go ahead and deny what she said so loud and clear that is her business, we already know the truth. We even thank God the Buffon did not save, because the savings could have ended up in Sambo Dasuki's ATM Machine for distribution to PDP Big Rats. 3 Likes |
