Many of my friends in the working class are anti-Jonathan and they all know I am strongly Jonathanian, they claim to have supported Jonathan in the first term and believed he has failed them and they are unhappy with him.... I travelled with some of this friends through the roads from Lagos to Benin and they found the road fair, because on the Ibadan expressway they acknowledged that massive construction work is going on,we continued from Sagamu to Ore and they found out that the road was a little bad with potholes that slowed driving to 100-120speed and took about 1hour 15minutes to get to Okitipupa, they found found out that the road from Okitipupa down to Ore has been 85%completed save just the okitipupa bridge that one of them has been constructed and the other under construction... We sailed to Benin smoothly with a perfect road well constructed by the government of GEJ, We continued to Asaba and then to Owerri all on a perfect road with the one in Anambra well constructed by the government of GEJ, We continued from Owerri to Port Harcourt and found massive construction work going on with just about 15 kilometers not completed but with construction massive construction work going on, we went through PH with good road networks to the GRA and left for Aba, a very dirty city with some bad road with little or no visible construction work going from PH to Aba but the road was fair except approaching into Aba were there is a number of bad spots on the road.... We travelled from Aba to Owerri and to then through the Awka/Enugu road and had a smooth sail because the road was perfect with a few construction going on around Nnamdi Azikiwes house but had a beautiful ride till others had to catch up a flight from Asaba back to Lagos.... I will say this working class people are comfortable and have no business with government with most of them from the South west, then we began to analyse what we saw and what the other government refused to do and what GEJ is doing.... They talked about corruption and the weakness of the EFCC as against OBJs era and I told them that a wise person does not pursue a thief but block the channels for theft, that the reform in the various help to expose theft and block its channels..... 185,000 ghost workers channel blocked and money saved for the country, pension reform and pension thieves are exposed, oil reforms and oil thieves are exposed, housing reform and massive housing units are being built and property developers are forcing down their prices so as not to be caught unawares when everyone can have access to mortgage and house their own house, transport reform and the rails are working and others being repaired from Lagos to Maiduguri and Abuja to Kaduna,Keffi to Lokoja and Calabar to Lagos all being reconstructed....Agricultural Reform, where people are encouraged to farm and are empowered with agricultural loans and farmlands and Agricultural subsidy thieves have no space to steal anymore through their importation of fertilizer....No more free avenue for one man to just give 10000metric tonnes oil oil product to their girlfriends without due processes.... Human capital development through the SURE-P initiative and the U-win initiative where. people are encouraged to be entrepreneurs and providing good policy framework for business to thrive etc.....On foreign direct investment 18new companies came into Nigeria and Nigeria became the Largest economy in Africa despite insurgency and fall among the MINT nation as the 3rd largest investment destination in the world.... The power reform and its privatization whose process followed all international standard and best practice and was commendable by most countries of the world and gradually yielding positive result with some areas having not leads than 18 hours of electricity on a daily basis.... They could no more talk but strictly held on to security as a reason for his failures, calling GEJ a constitutional President and not an action President.....
