WHY THE PRESIDENT WILL NOT RESIGN.

Indeed Mr Goodluck Azikiwe Ebele Jonathan, is the most criticized president. He said that himself and today i want to re echo it. This is based on the international backlash on his person and office as well as captured here. This is a compilation done by Iorliam Shija of
 Here Are Some Of WHAT THE WORLD SAID ABOUT THE NIGERIAN LEADERSHIP.

Amidst the mammoth criticism, i want to tell us all  why the president will not resign.
  • He will not resign because he is a Nigerian politician and has the mandate of Nigerians for now.
  • Even though highly criticized, Nigerian citizens do not expect him to resign and he wouldnt be in a rush to disappoint us.
  •  GEJ is from Otueke in Bayelsa,State south-south, a minority and oil rich area which is believed to be one of the states sustaining Nigeria and they consider this era their 'own time'.
  • The president of Nigeria will not resign because he has aides that report to him and they have not told him anyone is calling for his resignation.
  • He will not resign because he belongs to the ruling party. The great PDP
  • The president of Nigeria will not resign his position because this 'terrorism is a global issue and Nigeria is just facing her fair share'
  • Despite the bad light thrown on the international media, Mr President will not resign because he says his army is strong enough and that Boko haram does not have more sophisticated weapons.
  • Contrary to popular opinion, the president is not clueless about Boko haram,he knows that most of these  sponsors are within his government, (not cabinet) as he aptly corrected during his media chat and so he will not resign.
  • Mr president would need to stay another term to finish the many strides (power and agriculture) he has initiated and resigning will only mean giving up on the Nigerian dream.
  • The president will not resign because he doesn't have to do every thing as wished by a few people.
With these few and simple but solid points of mine, i hope you are reminded why the president of Nigeria will not resign.

One love and have a great week ahead.
