Goodluck Jonathan as the governor of Bayelsa state was not much different from Alamieyeiseigha: he was lazy and incompetent, he was not accountable and transparent in his financial and political dealings, had clannish tendencies, he looked to the North and the West for solution to his problems and never trusted his fellow Ijaw brothers and sisters, maintained a choir of praise-singers, was intolerant of critics and criticisms, allowed his wife to run a parallel government, and acted as though the state was his fiefdom. Government affairs come to a screeching halt whenever Alamieyeseigha took one of his frequent trips. Jonathan learnt from his former boss, and so delegating authority was a foreign concept.
