Advisers Often Gives Me Contradictory Advice – President Jonathan Laments

President Goodluck Jonathan has said that he always get contradictory advice from authorities when he wants to take decisions on major national issues.

Speaking at a Christmas carol at the banquet hall of the presidential Villa, president Jonathan said only God knows why he is the president of the country.

According to the president, nobody can be in any position without the consent of God.

He said the God that gave him and others the opportunity to serve the country would see them through.

President Jonathan requested Nigerians to pray for God to give him the wisdom to do what is right in His sight.

“God knows why we are here. Nobody will place himself in any position without God. So God that gives all of us the opportunity will see us through.

For me, your servant today, I will continue to request for your prayers that God should give me the wisdom to do what is right in His sight”, he said.

He prayed that God give him the grace to do things with His fear, saying the country would survive if her leaders begin to do what is right in their own little way.

Jonathan disclosed that he often received contradictory advice and suggestions most times he wanted to take decisions on national issues.

He pledged that he would continue to do his best, especially to ensure that any opportunity given to him, he would use it to serve mankind.

“Because it is quite challenging for a leader. For every subject that you want to take a decision, you will have multiple suggestions, some contradictory, some to the left, some to the right, some to the centre. But you must take a decision.

“It is only God that can guide you to take the rightful decision that will not bring suffering to your people. We will try our best and we will continue to do our best. We promise that any opportunity given to us, we will use it to serve mankind.”

Nigeria is really getting interesting..

Fellow compatriots, we need not shout nor fight ourselves.

*President Goodluck Johnathan is a good man as a person, his simplicity and gentlemanness is second to none.

*He has given us his very BEST over the last 6 years. I mean, what else are we asking for?

*He has granted Alameisiya 'STATE PARDON' and my guy is now running for Senate.

*He allowed Fayoose to disrupt a court session and beat up a judge, while he walks freely. I wonder if Nigeria is sane.

*He locked up the house of rep from the entrance of the CONSTITUTIONAL speaker of that house.

*7 law makers impeached a speaker in Ekiti in a house of about 26 men, and nothing happened.

*16 was suddenly greater than 19 in base 10, just to cancel the one-term agreement he signed with the NIGERIA Governors' Forum and all Nigerians in 2011.

*Subsidy has been removed and the standards in our hospitals have reduced with time.

*$20 billion is missing and minister of Petroleum eats and dines with the president

*Another BIGGER & BOLDER subsidy is scheduled for 1st of June, 2015 and you may have to sell your laptop charger before you can buy fuel to charge that same laptop!!!

* Earlier this year, over 22 innocent Nigerians were killed in the job scam organized by the Nigerian Immigration Service(NIS) . The Minister of Interior, Abba Moro, told us the job interview was "simply mismanaged" and he has retained his office and even with extra luggage.

*1 Naira used to be equal $1.2 under GMB but now it's 186.5 to just $1, the worst ever in our history.

* Madam Gele, Ngozi Okonjo, just told us we need an extra $5 billion, through debts of course, so that our economy will not collapse like Humpty-Dumpty.

*While Benue State University was on an unending internal strike killing the future of poor Nigerians, Senator DAVID MARK (son of the soil) built his own PRIVATE UNIVERSITY, of course with tax payers' money, and my gentle president followed him to launch the school shamelessly.

*He has spent all money in the treasury and even had to BORROW an extra $1 billion but BokoHaram keeps getting more equipped than our military.

*Over 200 girls are missing, over 15,000 killed by Boko Haram, over 6 million displaced from their homes and uncountable injured beyond repairs yet my president went to a meeting in KENYA with 7 different PRIVATE JETS..

*clears throat...
* PHCN is giving their loyal customers GENERATORS as gifts for paying their electricity bills on time..
