1. Army raid on newspaper houses: In June 2014, the Nigerian army carried out raids on distribution centers handling several of the leading national newspapers. Various newspapers said their delivery vans were searched and vendors questioned across the country, and copies of the papers destroyed. An editorial in Punch said one of its distributors witnessed “a group of heavily armed soldiers” storming the cargo area of the Murtala Muhammed international airport in Lagos and searching all the editions waiting to be sent out. The commanding officer said they were acting on “orders from above” , said the paper, adding that papers were prevented from entering Ekiti, Oyo, Osun, Ondo and Edo states. The Nation said soldiers told its distributors they were acting on reports that attackers were attempting to use the newspaper distribution system to “ferry explosives to wreak havoc”. “They were civil but they gave us stern instructions not to attempt to distribute our copies,” said the unnamed man. Witnesses said delivery drivers had their mobile phones confiscated and were not allowed to take the newspapers when they left. The Daily Trust said some of its vendors were arrested, and that a senior military figure there had accused the media of “publishing and selling falsehood”. It said the raid followed a report it published, accusing senior army figures of using army land for personal use. 2. Immigration recruitment scam and death: On March 15, 2014, 6.5 million Nigerians paid an application fee of N1,000 each for the Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) recruitment examination. The tests were held in one day, and the ensuing confusion and crowding led to the death of 23 people. At the Abuja National Stadium, over 60,000 applicants turned up for the recruitment test, and after an early morning stampede at the entrance gate to the stadium. A source at the National Hospital, Abuja, said 10 people lost their lives. At the Liberation Stadium in the Rivers state capital, a stampede occurred when the over 20,000 applicants tried to force their way into the 15,000-capacity stadium, four people died and scores were injured.

Extra judicial killings Amnesty international (AI), in 2014 released video footage, in which it claimed that soldiers were slitting the throats of men accused of being members of Boko Haram. The soldiers were aided by members of the government sponsored militia commonly known as Civilian JTF. The bodies of the killed men were dumped into a mass grave. According to Salil Shetty, Amnesty International’s Secretary General: “This shocking new evidence is further proof of the appalling crimes being committed with abandon by all sides in the conflict. Nigerians deserve better. “What does it say when members of the military carry out such unspeakable acts and capture the images on film. These are not the images we expect from a government which sees itself as having a leadership role in Africa. “The ghastly images are backed up by the numerous testimonies we have gathered which suggest that extrajudicial executions are, in fact, regularly carried out by the Nigerian military and CJTF.”
4. Occupy Nigeria protests and soldiers: In January 2012, the Occupy Nigeria protest moved many Nigerians into the streets. This was ignited by a press release from the Petroleum Products Pricing and Regulatory Agency (PPRA), announcing the government’s decision to officially stop subsidizing petrol. That single release provoked the revolt and nearly caused a revolution. The streets were filled with protesters and the government responded with force as the military was deployed. Many were shot and at least one person was killed in Ogba, Ikeja.

no government is perfect, the hatred for jonathan won't do you guys any good, what effort do you guys made to curb such happenings,bad belle everywhere, abegi !

Oga Jonathan can't even remember what transpired during his administration.
I think the only thing that resonates frequently in his brain is this sweet line, '' STEALING IS NOT CORRUPTION''.

lame attemp to justify buari's reign of terror.

5. Boko Haram killings
The Boko Haram insurgency which began in 2009 under the late Yaradua’s, when the jihadist rebel group Boko Haram started an armed rebellion against the government of Nigeria. In 2012, under the Jonathan government, tensions within Boko Haram resulted in gradual split of the group between Salafist conservative faction led by Abu Usmatul al-Ansari, and the more dominant, violent faction led by Abubakar Shekau. In 2013, over 1,000 people died as a result of the conflict. The violence escalated dramatically in 2014, with 10,849 deaths.
6. Corruption
Another major type of abuse, under Goodluck Jonathan was corruption. Despite the lapses in security in north-eastern Nigeria, corruption was another major abuse Nigerians went through under Jonathan. The question remains whether he wasn’t able to stop it or he deliberately allowed it to flourish under his administration. Aides and ministers accused of corruption were either shielded or allowed to stay in their position. The granting of presidential pardon to former governor of Bayelsa state, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, who was convicted of money laundering, sparked outrage among Nigerians. He also did nothing, until too late, when former Aviation Minister, Stella Uduah, bought two armoured BMW cars for N255 million. Former national security adviser, Sambo Dasuki is also now under investigation for the arms scandal

Immigration recruitment scam and

What has the dullard done about the illegal abduction of judges by the DSS

what has he done about the illegal recruitment of his friends and family into the CBN without due process

what has he done about the killing of shiite muslims in Kaduna

what has about his chief of staff influencing the fine paid by mtn Nigeria

What has he done about allegations of his government's officials sexually molesting IDPs in the north east

There are a hundred and one questions begging for answers but gullible people like this OP will not see them
