Regardless of who's heading the
government, when they've been doing it for so long and fails to get it right,
they must be replaced. The public knows that, and President Jonathan is feeling
the replacement coming already. President Goodluck Jonathan seems to have lost
touch with the ground rules of democracy and has become a danger to the
country. He would be voted out come March 28th 2015, because Nigeria needs to
heal.
Out of panic mood, the President
embarks on a last-minute blitz ahead of the upcoming election. He visited
several places and consulted with many more people within these 6 weeks of
postponement than he earlier did before. All in an effort to garner more votes
for his re-election bid. He has been to churches and has requested for prayers
from pastors. He has visited mosques and has asked for intervention from the
“Alfas and Imams”. He has been to the shrine, has consulted with the oracles
and has sacrificed to the gods. He has
paid courtesy visits to various “Obas”, requested for the supports of “Emirs”
and has persuaded “Igwes”. Even with all that, he is not yet relieved of his
panic mood. The truth is President Jonathan has entered the decisive few days
of his re-election campaign bid, but he does not have this election in his
pocket still.
It cannot be over emphasized
that the people want change and cannot give room for further incompetence and
lack of care of his administration.
The wisdom of the people
recognizes that it’s intolerable for one man to be in power cluelessly, not
knowing what to do, how to do it and who to do it.
The wisdom of the crowd
recognizes that it`s inexcusable to have one man in the elm of affairs leading
a very wealthy nation and breeding a very wretched people.
The wisdom of the masses
recognizes that it`s intolerable to have one man leading the largest and
biggest economy in Africa, yet majority of his citizens live on less than two
dollars per day.
The wisdom of both young and old
recognizes that it`s intolerable to have a President who is afraid of taking
responsibilities and blames everybody for his negligence, incompetence and
failures.
It no longer makes any
difference and sense what his opinions or policies are right now. He already
had his fair chance and didn’t capitalize on it. The mere fact of heading the
government for four years and yet causes stagnation, corruption, inaction and
the triumph of evil over good is enough reason to proceed on voting him out in
the upcoming election.
After all, what distinguishes
democracy from dictatorship? It is the possibility of change! In democracy it
is normal for leaders to be replaced, thereby permitting new ideas, new
programs, and new concepts to come to power.
President Jonathan’s panic mood
has also taken the form of making many more promises to numerous groups,
organizations- both private and public sectors. But we are not stupid, that we
would believe his empty promises and his lying speeches that stand in stark
contrast to his socioeconomic philosophy.
The President is so nervous and
scared of defeat to the point that the Card Reader introduced by the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) gives him nightmare that he
could not hide is feeling about it.
Now, in the home stretch,
everyone scents the fear radiating from President Jonathan, the loss of self-confidence
and the visible panic mood he displays in all his actions. President Jonathan
scents defeat, he`s nervous, this is the beauty of democracy.
God Bless Nigeria
