President Jonathan Compares Kidnapped Chibok School Girls To Missing Malaysian Airplane

jonathan media chat transcript

May 4, 2014 – President Jonathan Compares Abducted Chibok School Girls To Missing Malaysian Airplane

During the Presidential media chat tonight, Nigerian President responded to a lot of current national issues.

GEJ seems not too bothered by the case of the missing school girls. He even compared them to the missing Malaysian airplane.

Read what Jonathan said on the Missing schoolgirls:

“On the list that I saw, 80% of the kidnapped girls in Chibok are Christians. We have requested for assistance from the US, but I can’t go into details. We can’t negotiate with somebody you don’t know; nobody has claimed responsibility for abduction.

We promise we will find the Chibok girls. We need every information, their pictures, names and any other details that we can get to put this incident behind us. We are trying our best and appreciate the concern of Nigerians over the situation in the country. Even the missing Malaysian Aircraft the world is yet to find it, so we are not alone”

Check out his other responses:

On his re-election, GEJ said:

My declaration for 2015 should not be a problem for Nigeria, but how we manage the economy. PDP is the champion. We need to know the challenger before we declare our candidate for 2015

On the state of corruption in Nigeria, GEJ said:

The word corruption is now being overused. There is difference between corruption and common stealing. If anybody steals $20bn today, America will know and tell you where the money is, because $20bn is a lot of money. More than 70 % of the cases called corruption are stealing which can be easily investigated.

On his approach to issues, he said:

People say I am too gentle, that is not true. If I should exercise 50% of my powers, I will be described as a dictator.

Many Nigerians have expressed their disappointment over the media chat.

Did you watch the chat, what is your take on Jonathan’s response?

    I am not happy with GEJ. He talks as if he is not in communication with his subjects the security personnels.
    It is now obvious that he has no answer to all the questions Nigerian are asking.
    May God help us all in this country.

    It is very disappointing indeed to continue to see Syril Stoba, a journalist and hosts of his old colleagues especially the only lady in there who hardly was able to construct questions properly, these bunch of old school journalists I have known as a young man in UNILAG in the late 80s are still made to represent our interest in the burning questions Nigerians would have wished to ask this Jonathan man. Is Nigeria not training young journalists anymore. Its a disgrace to see these old folks struggle to piece together simple english language in full glare of the whole world. A programme mornitored by the international media houses to get to know first hand what that Jonathan will say about the missing Chibok girls.

    Why America? Mr. President, prepare the country for breakup do not give in. Nigerians must defend Nigeria . Mr. President, you are paid to do the job, please do not hesitate to use your power to the fullest. Flimsy excuses weaken the trust we have in you. In as much you have legitimate reason(s) to crush the enemies of the country, I say go on sounnnnnnnnn!!

    President Badluck Jonathan responses or answers to questions asked during the presidential media chat today shows that we have the most incompetent, low mentality and the most unfortunate president in Nigerian history. The more this president open his mouth, the more foolish he become among the African leaders. This president is so dumb and unintelligent that he had no good or reasonable answers to many question he was asked during the so called presidential media chat. This is a dirty monster created by political manipulations of criminal Olusegun Obasanjo. He-OBJ had finally paved way for the most incompetent and low IQ person to assumed the highest position in the nation. President Badluck has nothing good or positive to show for being the president of the most popular black and oil rich nation for more than five years. Nigerian people should pay close attention to the destructive politics been display by this do-nothing president. I want to carefully analyze some of the president’s comments or answers during the presidential media chat today.

    First, when asked about the where about of the 240 missing school children. Badluck Janathan says, “On the list that I saw, 80% of the kidnapped girls in Chibok are Christians.” My great Nigerian people, what does religious affiliates of young innocent girls has to do with them been kidnapped in a lawless nation like Nigeria? According to eye witness report, those kidnappers carried out their evil operation at the school for more than two hours with no response from police station around the school. Instead of giving reasonable and intelligent report about the missing girls, we have a stupid president who has only religious information of those little children that have been kidnapped for more than eighteen days. This president third term reelection strategy is to divide our dear nation along religious and ethnic lines. This is old tactic of “Divide and Rule” employed by the slave masters more than 350 years ago. He has no clue about these innocent children where about, their health conditions, those responsible for this evil act or where they are been kept. It is a national disgrace that we have a president who is clueless about serious issue of national security and citizen safety. The only solution he offered today was begging the U.S government to intervene. Is still a misery how a man of this low mentality become Nigerian president.

    Moreover, when president Badluck was asked about gross corruption that has engulfed his administration. He says, “The word corruption is now being overused. There is different between corruption and common stealing.” This incompetent president believes that common looting or stealing of public funds should no longer be called corruption. This man is the worst mistake and a great disaster to peace, stability and progress of our beloved country-Nigeria. We have a president who feels that looting of national treasury does not constitute corruption but that should be called common stealing.

    In addition to that, when Badluck Jonathan was asked about him not declaring his willingness to run again in 2015. This was what this president says, “My declaration for 2015 should not be a problem for Nigeria, but how we manage the economy. PDP is the champion.” Wao! This is the most terrible response from an incumbent president who had failed Nigerian people from every section of the country. President Badluck declaration means so much to us- Nigeria citizens. We are so worry about what become of our beloved nation if this do-nothing president rigged the 2015 election. Any right thinking, reasonable and honest incumbent president would have declare his intention to Nigerian people by now. He would not tell us if is running or not in 2015, but he was in Kano State campaigning and dancing that same day Boko Haram terrorists killed more than seventy of our citizens in Abuja city. President Badluck will eventually destroy Nigerian economic, unity, stability and progress if allowed to rig the 2015 election. On his watch as the most incompetent president Nigeria ever had, more than 50,000 innocent Nigerian people have been killed by Boko-Haram. He-Jonathan had imposed great suffering and hardship on the masses than any past Nigerian presidents. He increased the prices petrol and kerosene by 75%; prices of food products have sky-rocked in the past five years; gross corruption and looting of public funds and unemployment among Nigerian youths is at alarming state.

    When president Badluck Ebele was asked about is inability to put things under control. He simply says, “If I should exercise 50% of my powers. I will be described as a dictator.” Wahalai, this is the most ridiculous response ever from any sitting president since the start of democracy. People elects president to exercise 100% of the people’s given power to protect lives and properties of the people, channel the country to path of economic prosperity, and enact policies that are best for the people. This man does not have the intelligent and the management skills to govern a nation like Nigeria. The more he opens his mouth to talk, the more foolish he sounds and looks. President Badluck Jonathan can never be reelected in a fair election as Nigerian president come 2015. We are tired of his failures as the most incompetent president. My great Nigerian people is time a change that will put our nation back on the right path of peace, economics progress, political stability and unity.

      @Omokehinde, I salute your sense of reasoning.
      No doubt some disgruntled elements might rain abuses on you without any point because they’re myopic in reasoning as well as subjective. GEJ is the master minder, financier of Boko Haram to cause religious rancor among the citizenry.. To raise sentiments for his re-election. He never mind sacrificing as much lives as possible just to get re-elected. God is exposing him, and he will soon be disgraced of he fails to retrace his steps

    All we need to get through this is not to outrightly criticize the president, but, those who swore to make the nation hell place and death toll, because they lost to the president. Here is what we ought to do now, is to pray to God to help our president overcome this vampires, blood demons, and wizards who have taken oath to break Nigeria, and divide a loving and caring people with a collective destiny, today, Russia wants to piece USSR together, because they have realize that there is strength and profit in number, well, ask China. Lets hold our president in high esteem, he is doing well and creating viable benefit for all, there is no perfect though, but we will be better off soon, I believe. God bless Nigeria, God bless the president, and God bless you.

    Next time,the organisers of this charade called presidential media chat should use journalists from Channels tv to anchor the chat and they shld not rehearse with the man Nigeria calls president! Until that can be done, allocate that time to a good soap opera or a nollywood movie featuring John Okafor, Chiwetalu Agu, Victor Osuagwu, Aki, and Pawpaw! Wetin?

    The problem with Nigerians is impatience, Mr. President Sir. Please use your veto power, because it is better to use your power and be tagged a detector than let some senseless Nigerians crumble your Leadership.
