“Nigerians Are Going To Force Jonathan To Run Again Because Of The Level Of His Performance” – Doyin Okupe

Indications that President Goodluck Jonathan will seek re-election in 2015 emerged last night with a declaration by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs that the President’s transparent leadership and concrete performance would make Nigerians to ask him to run for a second term.

Okupe said: “As an insider I know what he has been doing since he took over as President of Nigeria. I am very certain in my mind that Nigerians are going to applaud him and even if he does not want to run for election in 2015, Nigerians are going to force him to run again because of the level of his performance.”

The public affairs helmsman made it clear that Jonathan had set a 2014 deadline for himself to deliver uninterrupted power supply, tackle unemployment, insecurity and provide infrastructure to enable the economy to blossom.

Okupe said the President was quietly working to deliver on his mandate of bringing fresh air to Nigerians, explaining that it was in a bid to achieve the set goals that he recently committed ministers to endorse performance contract to show deliverable timelines.

According to him, the performance contract is geared at keeping top government officials on their toes and to enable the President to measure their performance and decide on how the best hands to continue to man the ship of state.

He said: “President Jonathan is not a theatrical or show man. He is not a man given to too much speech but action. I am very sure Nigerians will soon come to know more about his level of sincerity and commitment to the transformation of this country.

Okupe also said that it was wrong for Nigerians to continue to chastise the administration for not fighting graft when it was the same government that started the probe and eventual prosecution of those implicated in the subsidy fraud.

He however noted that cynicism of Nigerians towards leadership was borne out of many years of past failures by previous government, promising that the Jonathan administration was out to change things for the better.

“Nigerians have become use very cynical and skeptical about government because of past failures. But they should not judge Jonathan by the failures of the past. Mr. President is an innocent politician who is untainted by the politics of the past and not deeply entrenched in the principalities that have ruled us,” he pleaded.

On the issue of Boko Haram, Okupe noted that the government was dialoguing with the sect and was studying the conditions put down by the sect.

He announced that the government would make its position known on the matter at the appropriate time.

  3. Why would people stoop so low as to lie in the faces of the masses? Has it gotten that bad that they now see us as Illiterate or blind,that we can’t understand what is happening in the country!!! May God have mercy on all you hypocrites!

  4. The situation of this country has gone from bad to worst, this days they dont sell fuel in the filling station anymore i have to buy 25 liters of fuel for N5000 from the black market. our so called president gave us a new year gift of fuel increment with out caring about the effect it will have on the masses. our president goodluck jonathan reduced P H C N workers salary instread of encourage them to perform better by increasing the workers salary. for over 2 month their have been constant fuel scarcity in Nigeria and our so called president is doing nothing about it insted he is planning to run for a second term.
    I know we nigerian have been patient and tolerant with this government but that doesn’t make us fools. Thank you.

  5. Doyin i think you are making the most stupid and nonsense statement that even the mad man on the street can not say. Immagine a president that owns the political boko haram who he assign them to kill any one that sound as a trait to him, bomb are exploided in the mosque and churches all with the aim to imposed any north sentiment and muslim-christain crises, our elders are been eliminated almost every day and the suspect BH said they dont knw anything about the killing, we are suffering from highest state of insecurity, our lifes are been wasted on daily bases by the so called BH and the military on peace keeping, for how long should we continue to face this turture by the GEj administration. Nigeria should think twice and remove all religious and tribal sentiment and vote for a leader that would move us forward not dragging us backward, a man that would protect our lives and property not a man that will hire for your distruction, vote for a man that has nigeria in his heart not a man that is selfish,self centered who forgone national interest for his selfish ideology.

  6. it was said that Doyin was coming as an attack dog which he denied. The purpose for which GEJ employed him is becoming clearer. But Doyin, remember that life does not end with this government. A good name is worth much more than all the money you will make from this assignment. Remember how the society will remember and judge you after.

  7. We do not mind who becomes the president in2015,but the man must feel the nigerian pains. Gej should ensure he reduces the level of suffering an average nigerian is passing thruogh,secure the nation and ensure all corrupt elements indicted in all probe reports are prosecuted without favouring anyone. If he does these he may represent himself for another term. But may no mistake,it will no be so easy. He got this present term on a platter of gold.
