President Goodluck jonathans Fake promises upon fake promises. Read this Annie John post PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHANS FAILED PROMISES. Allow me to explain that the presidential victory of April 16th, 2011 was a victory for Jonathan and not necessarily for the PDP, of which he is a part and parcel. Sadly too, many of those who trusted and blindly voted for GEJ have now regretted that decision cursing the day they thumb-printed their finger against his name. This should reveal without any equivocation that the elections were not driven by issues, but sentiments about personalities, religion and ethnicity – which GEJ irreproachably milked to his ultimate advantage. It is my opinion that as a nation we should grow our democracy to achieve a situation whereby persons win elections on the basis of merit and actual performance not sentiments. It is sad to observe that of all the myriad of promises GEJ made during his political campaigns in 2011,he is still begging for more time. Here are a few of the promises: 1. On March 17th 2011, in Dutse the Jigawa state capital, he promised: “If I win the election, within my four years in office, I will establish domestic airports in all the states without airports. 2. On February 8th in Ibadan, the day he called some people rascals, he promised to create jobs and improve the power sector. Where are the jobs? And Nigerians are in worst blackout. 3.He landed in Port Harcourt on Feb 12 where he made a lot of promises, maybe to woo his Niger Delta people. He announced that the NNPC, in partnership with the private sector, would establish a petrochemical plant in the Niger Delta. He promised the plant would create job opportunities for Niger Delta youths. They are still waiting while he puts finishing touches to the sale of refineries to his cronies. 4. February 17th,2011 he was in Plateau where he made amazing promises to refocus on the solid mineral development of the state and make it one of the key revenue sources in Nigeria, the Plateau people are still waiting. 5.On Feb 21,he was in Kogi. He promised among other things that the dredging of the River Niger and Lokoja-Abuja road dualization would be completed very soon. They are also still waiting. 6.In Kwara State on February 22, he pledged that the irrigation project in Shonga would be completed soon to boost the commercial farming activities of the New Nigeria Farmers in the area. Has he done this? 7.On February 24, Mr President pledged to rehabilitate all ailing industries in Aba. The people of Abia can help verify if these have been done. 8..In Ebonyi state, he promised to dualize the Enugu-Abakaliki federal highway in addition to establishing a secretariat for ALL Federal government agencies and parastatals in Ebonyi. They are still waiting. 9.On Feb 27, he was in Asaba, the Delta state capital. On that fateful Sunday, he revealed that “The NNPC is developing a new programme that will absorb about 5,000 youths. Tell me, has this been fulfilled? 10. On March 2nd, he was in Ondo where he promised that roads and other basic infrastructure across the state will be developed in four years. In addition he also promised the exploitation of the vast bitumen deposits in the state for national economic development and employment generation. How far about this? 11.On the same day, March 2nd, his campaign train was in Ekiti state. While there, he promised that more than N50 billion federal intervention projects were ongoing in the state. Ask the people of Ekiti how far. 12.On March 12th 2011, he was in Ogun State and he promised an improved power supply. He also pledged to build more refineries, encourage downstream activities. Which of these promises has he fulfilled? So why does he need a second term? Is it just to fulfill his constitutional right? This man called GEJ has been tried and he is untrustworthy. #KICKPDPOUT2015.... #Dazzol...
