The problem with we Nigerians is that we always prefer to have myopic view on everything dat has to do with the government, we hardly engage in constructive criticism, but rather we go about condemning everything, and some of us always prefer to be spoon fed by the government, if not, den the government is doing absolutely nothing. Whether you like it or not GEJ remains the best president Nigeria has ever had, the young President means well for this country, if not for insecurity problems (book haram wahala), where he yearly had to budget almost half of the countrys yearly budget to fight insecurity,, and in 2014 alone out of a total budget of N4.962 trillion, the allocation to the defence sector took about 20 per cent, totalling N968.127 billion because of the growing insecurity situation in the country, and in midst of all the insecurity palava the young man is still defiling all odds to work for this country. And then somebody who can not even lead his own family will just sit at home and be castigating and condemning a man that is defiling all odds to put this country in good shape. How can you begin to castigate and condem a man who has set the below infrastructures in place => 1. 125 Almajiri schools in 13 Northern States. 2. 27 Special girls school. 3. 12 New Federal Universities. 4. 34 New NCE awarding institutions. 5. 101 Presidential Special Scholarship for Innovation and Development. 6. 10 million increase in Universal Basic Education Enrollment (UBEC). 7. 75% increase in OLevel credit pass in Math and English. 8. 100 Innovation Enterprise Institutions licensed. 9. 7,000 lecturers sponsored for post graduate studies home and abroad. 10. 51 Polytechnic laboratories rehabilitated. 11.

Privatized PHCN and Power Generating Plants undergoing constructions in different states. * Economy: Our GDP is now viable, overtaking that of South Africa and Brazil for the 1st time. Nigeria is now the biggest economy in African. Foreign investors who ran away from Nigeria are now beginning to come back to invest in our economy. * National Conference: Jonathans govt has successfully convened a National Confab where stake holders tabled their demands and grievances. The conference report has been submitted for govt to implement for the overall benefit of the nation. * Elections: This administration has conducted free and fair elections allowing opposition to win their enclaves back, unlike what played out in past administrations. The era of election rigging is now over, courtesy of Jonathan. Sentiment apart, which past Nigeria President / Head of state recorded such remarkable achievements in 3-years? I have no doubt in my mind that Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, will surely be re-elected in 2015 based on his achievements. Let the Transformation Continue!!!
