Some ex-NADECO chiefs are hypocrites –Jonathan
President Goodluck Jonathan took his campaign to Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Monday where he described some former National Democratic Coalition leaders in the South-West as hypocrites.The President, who arrived at the Mapo Hall venue of the campaign at 12.50pm after paying homage to the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Samuel Odulana, had in his entourage the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Adamu Mu’azu, members of the National Working Committee of the party, the Ondo State Governor, Olusegun Mimiko, Mrs. Jumoke Akinjide and other National Assembly members.
Also present were the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Olisa Metu; the Director General of the National Campaign Organisation, Dr. Ahmadu Alli; the Director, Media and Publicity of his campaign organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode; the party’s governorship candidate in Oyo State, Teslim Folarin and other party stalwarts.
While calling on the South-West leaders to justify their leadership style and love for the people, Jonathan said that instead of building prisons for the youths, he would build schools for them.
He said, “I did say that the South-West reminds one of the days of the National Democratic Coalition. But I am convinced that some of the NADECO actors are hypocrites, because they cannot justify what they are doing today. The South-West believes in human rights and social justice. No south-westerner will pray that someone who does not go through proper trial will be jailed for 300 years and above. If they are not hypocrites, they couldn’t be doing what they are doing today, but I don’t want to go into that now. If they are not hypocrites, they will not be talking about not empowering women.
“Without education, you cannot change people. If I did not go to school, I will not be where I am today. Every Nigerian child must have the Goodluck opportunity; that is why we are building out-of-school children secondary schools and Almajiris schools in some parts of Nigeria. I will not build prison for you but I will build schools for you.”
On the issue of corruption in government, Jonathan said that his administration had tried and jailed many Nigerians but it would not solve the problem. He explained that the problem would be solved through modern technology rather than harsh approach.
He said, “On the issue of corruption, let me reassure Nigerians that my commitment and method of solving the problem of corruption is not the number of people I tried and jailed. We have tried more Nigerians; more Nigerians have been jailed within this period after passing through due process. But I have told people that if I try 10 million Nigerians and jail five million for corruption; that will not solve the problem. We must use modern technology to prevent people from stealing, and that is what we are working on. If you vote me in again, the day I will leave after four years, the next president will not have to tackle corruption because we will use technology to block areas where people are corruptly enriching themselves. We are no longer in the analogue generation, I will solve corruption problem in this country.”
The President also used the opportunity to tell Nigerians that if voted in, his administration would give more opportunity to women in government, saying that women’s place was not in the kitchen or creating babies all the time.
He said, “We must continue to encourage women in politics. We have been told by some political parties that they will not encourage it. They said they would scrap the office of the First Lady at the federal and state levels. They said they would scrap the Office of the Council Chairman’s wife, the Defence Officers’ Wives Association, the Army Officers’ Wives Association, the Naval Officers’ Wives Association, the Air Force Officers’ Wives Association and the Police Officers’ Wives Association, but having served as deputy governor, governor, Vice President and now President, I can tell you that these offices are helping to mobilise our women. The money they spend is coming from non-governmental organisations. We send our daughters to big schools but do we then sentence them to become baby factory workers and yam pounders? I don’t believe that Nigerian women are designed to pound yam or be manufacturing children only and do nothing more. Women are as endowed as men and they will continue to be in top position in our government. I have told Nigerian women that their 2015 votes are to liberate them or imprison them in kitchens.”
While thanking the Ibadan people for coming out in large numbers to welcome him, Jonathan said that after meeting the Olubadan, he was convinced that the city deserved an international airport. He promised to act on the request by the monarch.
“The Olubadan has requested that we change the Ibadan airport to an international airport. Let us complete this one first and the next step will be taken but I assure you that Ibadan deserves an international airport. I have also promised that Ibadan dry port, meant to decongest Lagos port, will be looked into.”

Neither President Jonathan Nor Muhammadu Buhari Will Rule After February Election - Prophet Anthony Nwoko
A cleric, Prophet Anthony Nwoko, has said that neither President Goodluck Jonathan nor Gen. Muhammadu Buhari will be president after next month's election.
Nwoko had in 1993 prophesied the end of the military regime of former Head of State, Ibrahim Babangida, which came to be.
Also in 1998, he prophesied that the late military ruler, Gen. Sani Abacha, would leave governance of Nigeria in a mysterious way. Briefing newsmen in Enugu yesterday on the state of the nation, he also lamented that the nation was turning very ungodly, saying, "I had told IBB in 1993 to leave office and it happened and in 1998, I prophesied that Abacha would leave office mysteriously, and you saw what happened."
Speaking on prospect of Jonathan's reelection, Nwoko said, "In 2010, I told Nigerians that they should not expect much or any miracle from Jonathan.
Now, in this coming election, Jonathan will only serve as John the Baptist and Buhari has not got any heavenly crown to rule and will not rule this country because he hasn't got that crown.
"Don't take my prophecies for granted because I had also told Gen. Abdulsalam Abubakar not to make Obasanjo president and I had also warned Obasanjo not to make the late former President Yar'Adua president and my advice was not heeded and you saw what happened."
On what would happen having prophesied that the two leading presidential candidates would not be president after February elections, the 64-year-old prophet vacillated, saying: "I can see the glory of Nigeria in the South East and I don't agree with Wole Soyinka that Jonathan is Nebuchadnezzar; Jonathan is a forerunner to the glory of God."
On the controversy stoked recently by Rev. Fr. Ejike Mbaka in Enugu, Nwoko said he was not condemning the priest but "I want to tell him that I can see the glory of God in the South," an ominous projection that showed no definite direction for the country in the event that either of the two giants become president as prophesied.
The prophet, who said he is not married at the advanced age of 64 years, has no home of his own and has not set foot on his Umuahia country home in Abia State in the past 45 years.
He said he would only visit Umuahia after accomplishing the prophetic task for which he was called home from America by God decades ago.
Seun Kuti denies saying people shouldn't vote for Buhari, calls out reporter
Afrobeat musician Seun Kuti took to his Facebook page this morning to deny saying in an interview with Tribune that folks shouldn't vote for Gen. Buhari. Seun even called out the reporter he had the interview with. Continue to see what Seun allegedly said..
From Sunday Tribune January 11th, Seun Kuti was quoted as saying...
“I will only urge Nigerians, especially her youths, to come out enmasse to elect the ruler of their choice so that Nigeria’s democracy will continue to grow. As for me though, I will never vote for Buhari because of what he did to my father. It is a personal grouse. Buhari denied me the chance of seeing my father in the early stage of my life. He arrested and detained Fela in Kirikiri for the same number of years I was growing up without a father, and even did not allow his family members to see him on a daily basis. He eventually jailed my father and I will always remember that. He jailed my innocent father on currency trafficking, but he is claiming to be a saint now. Truth is that I have no reason to give my vote to any of the two contestants, but more especially Buhari because of the eternal emotional damage he caused the Kuti family, especially me"
