It would be unpardonably naïve to believe Jonathan has no sectional and regional support. Those who wish to replace him employing the present tactics should equally brace themselves for retaliatory hostility from his regionally extended kit and kin. Unfortunately for Nigeria the capacity of his people to pay back in like coins is beyond what Nigeria can afford. At the end of the day it all comes down to who wields imperial powers of patronage over the crude oil fed dispensation of pork at Abuja and so does the policy prescription of devolution and decentralisation of power. Take away the NNPC for instance and see how all sections of Nigeria will hiss and turn their back on this unhappy but potentially great union.
