Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
Electricity even if we have not received the full divideds yet, we must not deny there's progress, at least the privatization must people yearned for has been done.
That the naira is almost 200 today is not because of GEJ's policies, you can compare data of dollar and other currencies like pounds.
Corruption: the reason why you even know the level of corruption and wrath in the system is largely because of the FOI Bill signed by GEJ that Even former president OBJ refused to sign probably bcos he feared this backlash, to solve a problem, we must first be able to identify it.
Agriculture, they've been loads and loads of progress.
Aviation, airports are renovated from Lagos to ph to abuja to taraba, yola. status upgraded to int'l, like enugu, there's now full coverage of the entire airspace, reduced crash accidents due to avoidable faults and yeah thanks to God for that.
Federal roads, Benin-ore Lagos-ibadan, abekuta, enugu-abakaliki, kano-maduguri, abuja-lokoja, east west road etc.
I recently just saw the gradual revival of the train system of transportation in Nigeria and noticed that some of those trains are even better than trains used in the UK, where train is like the major means of transportation. Education? ICT? Electoral reforms?
I could also go on.... and you want me to accept GEJ has made a nonsense of this country. Maybe this professor and his proponents are the ones who doesn't know what it means to make a nonsense of a country.
I am not saying Nigeria as a nation are still suppose to be where they are or Jonathan's administration has been very perfect, but when criticizing let's do it objectively, give kudos where it ought to be given, security is the major drawback and that alone tend to hinder developmental tides.
This is not an issue of armed robbers attacking ur estate so u called police, Terrorism is never easy to curb and it falls on the shoulders of every citizen.
Some people make it seem like GEJ is the main beneficiary of boko Haram, Without dis boko Haram insurgency I doubt if Jonathan would even have any real opposition in the polls, hasn't he done enough to be given a 2nd tenure, its not like even the opposition has any clear cut plan to curb insurgency and fight corruption. the respective governors, national assembly members etc that we support for 2nd tenure what av they done to deserve it?
