We Are Highly Disappointed In The Administration Of Goodluck Jonathan
Office of the chairman
south south youth leaders forum
5th Nov. 2011
We Are Highly Disappointed In The Administration Of Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, and can no longer hide our feelings but bow our face in shame.
-Planned removal of fuel subsidy
-Planned increase in electricity tariffs
-Planned re-introduction of tollgate fees
Sir, is this promise of "FRESH AIR"?
We urgently advise that you sack all your advisers, as you have demonstrated enough proof that you are ill- advised. Else you will go down in history as Nigeria’s worst president.
We condemn in strong terms the recent move by the Federal Government to drag Nigerians, seven (7) years backward! by the planned re-introduction of TOLLs on our High Ways on the excuse that such fees will enable them improve the state of our Roads.
Meanwhile we still vividly remember, that former President Olusegun Obasanjo, abolished TOLL GATES in Nigeria, while he sought to remove fuel subsidy, saying the burden will be too heavy for Nigerians.
Yet this administration which claim to have human face, seeks to rough Nigerians so hard as to re-introduce tolls, increase electricity tariffs and still remove fuel subsidy! What has the common man done to deserve all this?
The same man (GEJ) who's cardinal campaign point was the fact that Nigerians did not experience increase in fuel price, has turned around in just few months of being Voted into Power to stab Nigerians at the back by taking steps to rocket the price of fuel, from N65.00 to N150.00. Per litre, In the name of Removal of Fuel Subsidy.
It is no secret as both Nigerians and Foreigners are well aware that "POWER" electricity is Nigeria's biggest challenge, yet the Federal Government is taking steps and has vowed to increase Electricity Tariffs, which is an attempt to make Nigerians pay for that which does not exist.
The present Economic Team lacks the capacity to be proactive in their thinking, the nation has witness rapid increase in the sales of crude oil, following the relative peace in the Niger Delta, yet nothing tangible has been done with such resources, in fact Nigerians even face tougher times now than ever.
Will it be too much for the Federal Government to build a SEA PORT in YAURI, KEBBI STATE? Is it also an impossibility to have an INTERNATIONAL MARKET in KANO STATE, these are infrastructures that will by all means improve the plight of young people in the Northern part of Nigerian, as well as impart on the Economy of our country, what then is the problem with the BRASS LNG, in BAYELSA STATE.
Mr. President, your Economic Team is bankrupt in ideas, and the problem of Nigeria has gone way above political party borders, it is high time you get good thinkers on board to move this nation forward, not minding if they voted for you or not, or whether they are in your good books, we are tired of backward movement as a nation, it would have been better if we are stagnant.
We are however consoled by the fact that YOUNG PEOPLE in Nigeria are now more united than ever, and have come to appreciate the fact that, the same hardship faced by the Youths in the North also affects the Youths in the South.
Sequel to this we are all waiting, and will vehemently resist all inhuman policies of the Federal Government, especially that of the planed REMOVAL OF FUEL SUBSIDY! We shall occupy ASO ROCK in protest and show the world that we also have the capacity as young people to effect positive change.
We wish to remind Mr. President, that the good people of Nigeria voted him in to power, to transform this nation and improve the living condition of poor Nigerians as well as generally reduce hunger to the minimum.
How ever the reverse is increasingly the case, as the hope of Nigerians fades on par second bases.
We want the President to know, that although he is our son, protests against inhuman policies of his administration shall commence from the South South !
This we have resolved to do to save his (GEJ) administration from the CABAL of self-serving political sycophants and to save the lives of ordinary Nigerians, which are being fiercely threatened.
Signed.

Do you know that graco
Do you know that graco duoglider double stroller is an excellent double stroller for your children. It is perfect for both infants and for pre-schoolers.
Efik and Ibibio will never forgive Ojukwu and his Igbos
@Calabarboy, I don't know who put you up to see because what you are trying to tell us is all lies. Or you are an Igbo trying to portray yourself as a Calabarboy. I met some Efiks and Ibibios recently actually less than a month ago, and they told me categorically that they (Efik & Ibibio) do not trust the Igbos collectively at all for anything. The two tribes will never allow Igbos to dominate them forever because Ojukwu betrayed them during the 1965 Civil war when he and his soldiers killed their men at Oron. The Efik and Ibibio are in the East all right but like the Niger Deltans, they have said that they are not citizens and will never be citizens of the Biafra. Go and read the proper history and ask the Elders in Calabar if you are indeed a Calabarboy as you claimed!
How could we have voted a man without at least 60 hours of math
God save Nigeria from this zoologist. that has simply turned our country in to use for zoological experiment.
it is now clear beyond
it is now clear beyond reasonable doubt that jonathan rigged election.

Rudderless Ship
It's very unfortunate that GEJ, first and foremost, is a person who does not have the intellectual capacity to think properly and thus lacks sound judgement. Secondly, he's too timid and afraid to bring any meaningful changes to Nigeria. Thirdly, he is too corrupt to fight against corruption! He is just a stooge for the real enemies of Nigeria and Nigerians who also happens to be Nigerians. Events of the last one month has truly exposed the qualities of GEJ which has been nothing but an apology. The PDP house of horror is stubbornly filled with wicked people, corrupt people, sick people, morons and mad people. The wicked and the corrupt of their household have always prevailed on the the sick and morons. I sympathize with you because I am sure you voted for him. I am not disappointed whatsoever because I saw this coming from the day evil Obasanjo handpicked Yar'Ardua and GEJ. Hope next time you'll make a wise choice.
its now or never
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

gej admin
the writer forgot to add the introduction and cost of new number plates as well as driving licence.all for the good of the common man.
Goodluck has a bad company as ministers and advisers
When Sanusi came into CBN he immediately tripled the number of licences awarded to BDC operators in a bid to settle his godfathers without considering the impact on the economy. When he later realised how the national reserved is depleted by this, rather than take responsibility for his mismanagement, he resorted to revoking all licences with ridiculous claims. He continued with lies upon lies to cover up his errors and inexpereince. He assured the affected BDC operators that they will get their mandatory 500m naira deposit returned to them quickly (within 1 months of the change in policy) in order to minimised their losses but, this never happened until after a full year of that promise. Yet, that was within the ‘small CBN’ that Sanusi has absolute control over its operations. All manner of things happened under his nose, including asking for bribes by CBN inspectors and this was reported to him in a stakeholders meeting but he never acted
ypou are out of senses
Buhari is for the muslim north and not south, those killed cos he lost election where are the killers, u are one of them fool,
the man is fake indeed- Amachree diedem of Hausa-Fulani
As far the south is concern Jonathan is not and can never be a disappointment to any man but a disappointment to north and killers of igbo race in the name of religion, IBB, ABACHA, ABDUSLAMI,BUHARI, etc they all wasted enough resources and letting of innocent blood through organized killings, they are the most and great disaster to human race,the south has the oil let them use it the way the wants, the cows, onions, pepper and ground nut are Hause-fulanis,have any body from south partake in sharing of the proceed, we should tell our selves plain truth.so the writer of this mess is member of Boko-harras, hiding under the the name of Amachree,disturbin. be plain to ID

Who bought you to put up this write up. Upon all your level of education you allowed yourself to be used to insult our dear president. I am ashamed of you.
What type of stupid statement have you made? be very careful so that you don't heep curses upon yourself. remember, the evil that men do leaves with them.
A word is enough for the wise.
Who is a Good Man????
If u want to know if a man is a good man. Go to his house & see how he's respected in his own house. If u see d wife hissing when the name of d man of d house is mentioned & u see d children not enthusiastic about d mention of their father, then you don't need to go far; such a man is definitely a bad man. He may be respected outside but at home, he doesn't have any value. Such analogy readily describes Jonathan. Patriotic and honest people from his clan have come out boldly that Jonathan is a great disappointment.
I don't know why OBJ should do this to Ijaw people & South-South by looking for a weakling to be saddled with this responsibility of representing South-South when there are thousands of capable people from that region that can perform excellently well. But OBJ because of his wicked scheming & manipulation anointed Jonathan who he thought would be pliable to manipulate knowing fully well that he's not a tested & experienced man for d job. It is very sad.
MAY GOD BLESS MEN WHO FOR THIER PEOPLE AND FEAR GOD ONLY
THIS SUBSIDY ISSUE HAS NOW COME TO THE POINT WHERE THE STRIKERS PROFER THAT THEIR ANGER IS THE TIMING OF THE REMOVAL, NOT THE REMOVAL ITSELF. AT THIS POINT HOWEVER, AND IN MY OWN OPINION, IT IS NO LONGER AN ISSUE. IF ONLY WE CAN GO BACK A BIT TO LOOK AT OUR USUAL REACTION WHENEVER THERE IS ANY GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING PETROLUEM PRODUCTS, IT THEN BECOMES OBVIOUS, WHY THE PRESIDENT DID WELL TO REMOVE THE SUBSIDY AS SUDDENLY AS POSSIBLE. IF, FOR INSTANCE, THE PRESIDENT HAD GIVEN A FUTURE DATE FOR THE REMOVAL, WE WOULD NOT HAVE SEEN A LITRE OF PETROL IN FUELING STATIONS, LET ALONE HOW MUCH IT WOULD HAVE BEEN SOLD FOR. WHO AMONG US WOULD NOT SEAZED THE OPPORTUNITY OF MAKING 100% SURE PROFIT BY BUYING PETROL NOW TO SELL IT 4 TO 6 MONTHS OR EVEN ONE YEAR AFTER? I BET, PMS WOULD HAVE SOLD FOR UPWARDS OF N500 IF A DATE HAD BEEN GIVEN IN THE FUTURE. MAY IT BE WELL WITH YOU OH OUR PRESIDENT. BUT, REMEMBER YOUR PROMISE
what is it all about? Please
what is it all about? Please educate us.
Good talk IFYGUY. These
Good talk IFYGUY. These people cannot see beyond their noses. Armchair critics - they never see any good in anyone who does not look or think like them. Mob mentality spreading so quickly among Nigerians.
NLC and co blinking already
tuendemash, You south-south hater, so get a life. Read Jonathan's lips - he is saying NLC and the rest of you are not getting your way. He has the support of millions on this even if NLC and co are itimidating people through the protest and the media on a trip with false and hyped reports. No, south - south people do not want any patronizing comments from you nor your insults. Yes, we have no sense, but the president is making one of the soundest economic policy ever in Nigeria and you wise men and women from the north and west are too blinded by your tribalsim to appreciate. why afre your all not vigorous in preferring solutions and organizing protests to bring an end to Boko Haram? Oil subsidy is your prioty becuase west and north benefit most from fuel subsidy, and this has to end - period.
Please stop being patronizing
Please stop being patronizing to the S-S people, we can speak for ourselves. Who are these S-S buffons - Amb, Barr, Amachree Odiedim
of the South South Youth Leaders Forum? Never heard of these chahraters. They are not representing me, they speak for themselves. We have only personalized the whole issue and poured our venom on Jonathan. Did he invent fuel subsidy? Why were northern youth leaders not disappointted with Yardua, the west with OBJ? where they good leaders? the issue is whether we can afford to continue to subsidize fuel or not - you all know the answer and it is no. We cannot tackle corruption with fuel subsidy in place. Now labor is negotiating for N120/litre. Did they have to bring about so much destruction instead of embarking on dialogue? No. Please lets be real and honest for once. We should all be rallying around the government to address Boko Haram killing innocent people instead directly promoting their agenda to break-up Nigeria.
south-south youth
I always respect d south-south
GEJ we are disapointed
every region in nigeia has one natural mineral resource or another,why is the whole nation depending on oil from the niger delta region?no subsidy or let everybody go back and develop is resources and run itself.we are tired of over depending on oil revenues and the people in the region living in abject poorvety.
JONATHAN, A REAL DISAPPOINTMENT
I am happy that we have Nigerians who will tell the truth, no matter whose ox is gored. Thanks, the SOUTH SOUTH FORUM!!!!!!!
Someone should prevail on Jonathan to do the right thing!
Is it not obvious that Jonathan cannot fight corruption?
JONATHAN knows what is right. Can he fight for the rights of the commoner when he runs with the hares and hunts with the hounds?
Despite the fact that the country is falling apart and things will get rapidly worse if Goodluck does not do what is right, he continues to dilly dally daily.
Oil subsidy removal is just the straw for deep down, corruption, disrespect for the people's humanity is the issue.
If Goodluck is not in cahoots with the corrupt elements, why can he not fight corruption and bring the criminals of OIL subsidy to book?
Nigerians were with him when Turai's cabal made a minced meat of him. They won then and they will win again. I promise you.
Why is he going against these same people now?
Tambuwal, David Mark have chosen sides, where is he heading?
Unless somebody can prevail on Jonathan, Nigeria is rapidly moving to a point of no return. Civil war is staring us in the face.
Making sense of responsibility
You made a sense of responsibility, because that what we need to hear from you as south south youth forum by stated the true about this present government. Hope Mr president will hear this advice with sense of responsibility as you thougth on. What we need in Nigeria is true leader who respond to people needs not enforced what people doesn't want. Please mr president sack all your ministers and advisers now, because they are not means good to you the people of Nigeria.
Where are the bombers
Fuel now costs #150/litre.jet GEJ has budjeted 1billion for his food what a new year gift to his followers.
well,lets hire sucide bombers to destroy PDP as a whole,especially their oga Jonathan.
We are not disappointed in the Jonathan Administration
Mr Amachree or Mr Odiedim. Why must you use your membership of PDM to discredit the Jonathan administration. How much are you getting from control of Onne ports or similar ventures in which the leadership of PDM is neck deep.
What do you expect from Jonathan? A miracle worker to right the wrong of years of maladministration. How many people of Jonathan's stock had the opportunity to contribute to the mess he has inherited. Of course, he knew the magnitude of the problems and he is offering solutions.
Is there anything wrong in Nigerians demonstrating against their parents for not producing enough cocoa, groundnut and palm produce to make up the short fall in revenue from petroleum? Let us see the fruit of our labour by ensuring that revenue from oil is judiciously spent to develop all parts of the country.
Please fake Amachree, you're not helping Tonye. Stop maligning and defaming the Amachree name in your nefarious activities.
It is high time people shed
It is high time people shed out protectionalism and call a spade a spade like the people that matter from the SouthSouth no matter whose ox is goed.
You need to advise your brother that power belong to the people so he needs to understand that the people put him there and the people can also take him away. He is a public servant who should not lord it over the massess.
And talking about GEJ, Methinks he will perform better as a follower and not a leader, because he is clueless, so why don't we demote him to a Deputy President instead. As for Deri the chap with the brain of chicken, you are better of with Igbos than against them. A word is enough for the wise
Here I stand
CONCERNED CITIZEN
GEJ BETTER AS DEPUTY THAN AS PRESIDENT (OVERWHELMED)
