Stella Oduah Begs Jonathan

Monday, October 21, 2013

The embattled Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, has commenced a high-powered lobbying to get into a room with President Goodluck Jonathan with a view to beg him to forgive her and save her job.

She tried using former President Olusegun Obasanjo to beg Jonathan to forgive her but Obasanjo turned her down, saying he can't get himself involved in an obvious act of corruption. Stella Oduah, sensing that she has bitten more than she can shew, then rushed to Aso Rock to personally beg Jonathan...

She was sighted at the Presidential Villa in Abuja late on Friday but Jonathan ignored her. A presidency top source confirmed Stella Oduah’s visit to the Villa.
According to the source, Oduah “wanted to explain herself to the President who, like every Nigerian, was embarrassed by the media reports and the evidence of the purchase of the two cars at an outrageous sum of N225m.”

The source said, “She was here (Villa) on Friday but like you know, Mr. President was busy throughout the weekend.”
Meanwhile, indications have emerged that Jonathan is set to probe Stella Oduah over the N255m car and all other transactions he has trusted her with in the past. This is because Jonathan used to believe that she is one of the best ministers he had until this monumental fraud was uncovered.
Meanwhile, Ms. Oduah is expected to appear before the Senate as the Senate resumes plenary on Tuesday.

"I'm So Happy To Meet Nigerian's President, Goodluck Jonathan" - World Richest Man, Bill Gates

Thursday, September 26, 2013

According to Bill Gates, he was happy he had a good meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria with regards to Polio cases in Nigeria which are down 50% from this time last year.

Below is the report from Bill gates' website:

    It's the kickoff to U.N. Week here in New York, and while locals like to complain about the traffic (I can see why), it is a great opportunity for me to meet with leaders from parts of the world where our foundation is working—to talk about global health and development projects.

    I started off on Monday morning meeting Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan. Besides our work with our partners on polio in Nigeria, we are also working with the government to improve their agricultural sector. I've written before about China's potentialto help developing countries in Africa learn from its successes, but in Nigeria we have a really interesting project just getting off the ground where Brazil is working with Nigeria to bring up agricultural productivity in their northern Guinea savannah.

    Brazil has done an amazing job helping their own farmers in the Cerrado region to improve their yields, which brings tremendous economic and social benefits. President Jonathan assembled a meeting of experts in New York and we spent a couple of hours reviewing their progress and discussing next steps. I also had a chance to catch up with President Jonathan about the work we're doing with our partners on polio, which is showing encouraging progress. Nigeria had 43 confirmed cases of polio in the first 8 months of 2013, a drop of 50 percent from the same period last year.

    Finishing the job is quite an undertaking, so having the President's support is a big deal. I was pleased we got to spend as much time together as we did.

Jonathan Makes His Own Demands: Gives Condition for Peace

Saturday, September 7, 2013

It appears that President Goodluck Jonathan was jolted by the harsh criticism he got from one of his die-hard men and supporter of his second term ambition, Alhaji Asari Dokubo, recently.

Asari has condemned the manner in which President Jonathan was handling the PDP crisis with kid gloves, as he called on him to be a real Ijaw man and call the bluff of all "dissidents" trying to denying him his right, one that is constitutional, to remain the president come 2015.

After consultations, President Jonathan has given his own conditions too:
We observed that Jonathan, speaking through his adviser on Political Matters, Dr Ahmed Gulak, insisted that he will not succumb to any "unreasonable terms" from those who are after his job.

Reacting to the thorny issue of 2015 and demands of the Atiku Abubakar faction, Gulak said “The President as the leader of the party has no objection to any peace move either from inside or outside. He always encourages peace talks; he prefers solving disagreement through dialogue. He believes in peace.

“It is not true that the President is not ready to discuss with Governor Amaechi. Peace move is all inclusive, depending on reasonable and acceptable terms.”

A source told us that Jonathan is set to contest the 2015 election as PDP candidate no matter what anybody thinks. He is said to have indicated his readiness to go ahead with the ten governors said to be loyal to him, believing that he would enjoy the structures of the Old PDP in several states.

I hear Jonathan is now trying to win new "friends" that will work for him if the peace moves fail and governors in the Atiku faction decide to dump the PDP.
