Impeachment of President Jonathan amay not end Political and Economic crisis in Nigeria


Few days ago, some members of opposition party called on concerned legislators to staged impeachment process against Nigeria No 1 citizen: President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. The All peoples congress (APC) spokesperson Lai Mohammed claimed that the impeachment of President Jonathan is imperative at this point. The called for this impeachment move as generated so much physical and media attention and criticism among Nigerians.

Recently, the erstwhile former president alleged the current president of misplacement of priorities in a position of governance, Tambuwal the speaker of the Nigeria lower house of legislative also allege the president of nursing corruption and several other displeased Nigeria has doubt the ability of the No 1 citizen to fix Nigeria state

However, presently it is not a doubt that Nigeria has a country is not working” every sphere of the economy is struggling and there is a lot of kiosk and mayhem in the land considering economic, social and political indices.  Power or energy sector for instance despite the transition from public to private has not yield positive changes, education is just recuperating from five month old industrial action, health sector is about to be shut down by aggrieved medical workers, corruption is becoming a lifestyle, agriculture is abandoned and neglected , security status especially in the north and part of the south is questionable , aviation sector struggling, manufacturing nil, and youth empowerment and employment is nil

Despite all these daunting challenges, impeachment of Jonathan will not be the end to these Problems: Reasons
  •      Nigeria problems are as much as they are when Jonathan assume office
  •      Much of these problems are there as far as 1960s till now
  •    Jonathan is not the root of Nigeria problems and therefore might not be the true solution provider to Nigerians problems
  •    A wound of many years cannot be heal in a day and therefore problem of about 53yrs cannot be fixed within 6yrs
  •     Problems in Nigeria cannot be fix alone by Jonathan  but through collective effort of all Nigerian state and citizens

“Therefore, the called for impeachment of Jonathan by members of APC and their political associates is destructive and not patriotic hence the called should be discarded and ignore by all Nigeria citizens”


APC political elites are part of Nigeria problems and they may not be the solution to Nigeria problems, let them fix the problems in their state and territory first, then Nigerians will listen to their pleas. Some of them have occupied various positions in their state and at the centre, what has been their landmark achievement in terms of promoting peoples welfare and socio economic development of Nigeria state. The basis of Nigeria problem is corruption” how many of these political elite in APC can swear by Ogun, Sango, other goddies and their parents grave that they have not directly or indirectly steal Nigerians money. 

What we need in Nigeria goes beyond planting of flowers while citizens lives on empty stomach with no hope of tomorrow and implementation of non tangible policies that cannot end the suffering of a common man. It is only unfortunate that Jonathan sit at the centre, the failure and all forms of undevelopment in all the 36 states of the federation cannot be out rightly put on Jonathan administration.

One thing is certain, if you cannot fix your state, you cannot fix the centre, and if all the state is made to work then it will justify the centre. What we need in Nigeria state is to collectively work together to fix our fathers land. If Nigeria succeeds, then it is for all of us and if otherwise we shall pay for it together.

Jonathan should be allowed to prove his leadership prowess may be he can fix things not that these congregations of self political driven individuals who are after their personal and political interest will disrupt this country for us. To all common man in this country, do not be allowed yourself to be used by any desperate power seekers because if anything happen today, they can fly in their private own jet but where will you and I run to?

Let us join hands together to build Nigerian state, we can fight corruption and end bad leadership not by violence or using selfish political oriented utterances to create societal pandemonium in the society. For those who do not see anything in Jonathan administration, come 2015 we shall see how far they will go
Beware, what matter is not where we are but where we are going

Great Nigerians!!!
