President Jonathan’s Delegation To Brazil Is World’s Largest, At 116!
As Nigerians lament the abrupt departure of President Goodluck Jonathan for Brazil in the middle of violence and counter-violence in the North, SaharaReporters has gathered that the Nigerian ruler arrived at his destination with 116 men and women, the largest national delegation, contrary to his pledge in January to travel at less weight and expense.
Our sources say the team is made up of:
• 25 personal aides
• 18 aides of Patience Jonathan
• 2 members of the National Assembly
• 5 Ministers
• 2 Governors, and
• 63 officials from the Ministries of Enviroment, Foreign Affairs, National Planning and Petroleum Resources.
The junket will continue for Mr. Jonathan next week Thursday when he will be in Brussels for the World Customs Conference, scheduled for June 28-30. He will be taking with him about 57 people, including 26 aides, 3 Ministers, 8 members of the National Assembly, and 20 other government officials.
From June 25 to 29, Mrs. Jonathan will be in Maryland, United States, accompanied by 36 people: 18 aides, 4 wives of Governors, and 14 friends and associates to attend a UNESCO First Lady’s “Youth Infusion” Summit in Annapolis, Maryland.
Nigerian political parties yesterday lambasted Mr. Jonathan’s decision to leave for Brazil, just hours after violence and counter-violence had reportedly resulted in over 74 dead and hundreds injured. On Sunday, the president called on God to intervene in the violence.
But he has also promised to see to the end of the Islamic militant group militant Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati Wal-Jihad, widely-known as Boko Haram, this month. After he made that pledge in April, the militants promised to make June a bloody month in order to prove that Jonathan has no power over them. Some helpless Christians have in the past few days resorted to reprisal attacks against Muslims.
Only yesterday, as Jonathan hopped on one of his gleaming new executive jets and left the chaos in Nigeria behind, Boko Haram notified SaharaReporters that it would launch even more devastating attacks on churches and government buildings in the coming days.
The group’s contact person said Boko Haram had line up about 300 suicide bombers to attack churches in Southern Kaduna and in Plateau State in its determination to exact considerable revenge for the Muslims killed in Christian reprisals in the last few days.

Protect christians
The President is insensitive to what is happening, why are you waiting your time? So you voted for him to protect only Christians? If that is what you were told to do, now you are seeing what that action has putting the country into. Shame on you all. He is not fit to be the President of this country because he has no courage and the liver to handle issues.
mr president himself is preching coruption
President himself is welcoming corruption why must he travel with does aids 116 nigs hmmm may God save dis black nation black mind and black thinking.
46 or 116 which one is fair?
46 or 116 which one is fair? James Cameron travels with less, Barack Obama travels with less, so what is GEJ's problem?????
GEJ needs to take Advice
It is high time our president begin τ̲̅ȍ take some criteria into consideration before making som vital decisions, indeed this is too much looking at nigeria's economy,frankly speaking if GEJ needs τ̲̅ȍ take caution, i want the president τ̲̅ȍ know that he is there today but another man would be there tommorrow, and whatever he does today will tell on his children tommorrow, what we want him τ̲̅ȍ do is τ̲̅ȍ fight Corrupion not τ̲̅ȍ promote it, Corruption is a killer, it will do nothing but τ̲̅ȍ make his landlord an a Failure.GEJ needs more advice and should advice if he actually wants a success in his administration.GOD help nigeria
Call 2 Nigerians
The Nigerian Army Force are bunch of corrupt. They don't even know their duty. What are they waiting till now, while our life is on jeopardy, your calling yourself a army. This is theright time for a coup d'etat in Nigeria and I'm sure that no any country or organization will question your action. BH is not about muslims agenda, they are not even muslims. Call Obasanjo, Jerry Gana, T.Y. Danjuma, Gen. Ali Gusau, Gen. IBB, Sen. Ali Modu Sherrif for a close meeting, cos they know the roots of this instabilty in our country. Your just fooling pple for nothing.
RE:-) WELCOME TO MORONIA
This submission aptly sums up the entire Nigeria vs. GEJ situation. When in 2011 those of us in ACN called attention to Jona's glaring short comings, unpreparedness and lack of experience to lead our dear fatherland, we were called names for pointing out these flaws. Here is a so-called PhD literarily fiddling while Nigeria burns. And the 150+ million of us are busy killing each other! Need we look for any more reason why we are ALL morons now? God save Nigeria!
Solution suggestion
Let us be sincere here. Mr. President and the government is helpless in tackling BH, but they are not in attending conferences. It's normal business rule to leverage where your strength is. Even if you asked him never to leave Nigeria again, he has no idea on what can be done and nobody does including the opposition.
We need to tear apart the FGN(not Nigeria, at least initially) Release the factors of production to those that want to develop and allow those that are retrogressive to please themselves.
Pray 4him
The man you are praying for is not doing anything meaningful. what prayer do we offer him. May be OBJ can suggest.
Let us sell Nigeria to America. These leaders are stealing from David Mark to the Bottom From tambuwal to the Bottom, From Governors to the bottom, from president to the bottom, from political contractors to the bottom. who is a free man, from mrs jonah to the bottom
@wahala: Gbam, you hit it on teh neah !
"The truth is that Super Dumbo knew the bad boyz were closing in on him since this is June, the month of 'kill or get killed' and he has dived for Cover. Schikena!" ......credit to @Wahala
Gbam! You struck it right on the head ! The Coward One from Otuoke took cover, no wonder the other foolish pepper-soup eating Defence man and Police IG are both on ground in Kaduna; to re-assure Dumbo Jo they are in charge and to come back. I bet you, the moron will typically make another gaffe before he leaves Brazil.
Where is DERI?
I haven't seen you come out to support your brother Badluck Jona. Or are you in Brazil with him?
Let someone from the
Let someone from the south-south advise our President or are they all blind to what is happening? The masses are suffering and the govt officials couldn't care less. If this continues, be sure both male and female will take up arms and begin to kill govt officials' relatives(or those left in the country). The masses are watching and our patience is running out o. By the way what is the total cost of this trip, one billion naira?
God help Jona
I pray he still have a country to return to by the time he decide to come back, 4get about GEJ cos its only God Almighty that can give us fresh air in this country.
i can't shout...
Who will save Nigeria..... If Jonathan that people confide on him is running country like as if he's the owner of the country..... I PITTY MA COUNTRY NIGERIA. Because another person still will come and lie take all the money go, till everything collapse...
WE STAND BY PEACE - BH ARE NOT REPRESENTING ISLAM OR MUSLEMS
Please fellow Nig, BH are not representing muslems. They are representing the political class of PDP. The muslem too are targeted and killed. They want to weaken the security forces against them by igniting religion riot so that more security would be deployed to those areas thereby allowing them to hit more targets in other places. Please make peace with your muslems and chriatians friend. Do not allow few unguided ones to set Nig into war.
MR BADLUCK
I said it that BEJ ( Badluck Ebele Jonathan ) has nothing to offer. He is insensitive and lacks leadership qualities. He is a wasted Phd product. A shame to ASUU and a bad example to youths .
We should rise against BEJ .
Lets Impeach this President
I say, before our country comes crashing on all of us, let the National Assembly (by NASS, I mean the lower chamber since the senate is more or less a sitting duck) start impeachment process. This suffering will not be bearable before we reach 2015. God save Nigeria. Mr. President? I care not for you anymore...
hum; may GOD help nigeria
hum; may GOD help nigeria
Please who will pay for the
Please who will pay for the 14 personal friends travelling with Mrs Jonathan? what do all these so called aids actually do?when you think we have heard enough,more comes up and we all gulp it down.When will Nigerians say enough is enough?
I concur
I'm totally in support of your statement,one thing of about Nigerians is that we live in denial a lot,instead of calling things out the way they truly are,will start throwing God's name around. Here is a President that is not capable of protecting the lives of country,what even irritates me the most is,him coming out and using strong words like 'will soon rid d country of boko haram' when he knows he's not going to do anything. And to crown it all,he goes jetting off with all these people,wasting money while we the masses suffer that he claims the country does not have. The question is,how green is Nigeria? What's our 'so-called' President's business at the summit in Brazil?something a Minister ought to have gone to if at all it was important,yet,he took his madam,ministers,aides etc isn't that just plain dumb?I can't wait for 2015 for us to be rid of this weakling and he is a disgrace to the South-South
JONATHAN 'S INSENSITIVITY IS VERY SAD.
The communique released at the end of the earth summit is non-binding,it was just another jamboree on protecting the environment.The real environmental protection should be getting tough with oil and minning companies who wreck havock on our environment in Nigeria.
The present economic climate and extreme insecurity prevailant in Nigeria is another reason why one wonders exactly why he cannot delegate such trips to the appropriate minister and save us some cash and must he always travel with the first lady,even the President of the USA does not travel with his wife on every official visit.
Yes,a President can give orders from any where but if your country is on the brink,you cannot pretend to be happy wherever you are.The President should take the peoples feelings into consideration too,people are getting bombed to oblivion,many are bereaved and maimed we just suffered two avoidable air disasters,major corruption cases are on the table.Think properly.
Iam a southern Christian and
Iam a southern Christian and am fed up with the fact that book haram goes unchallenged . I am ready to start retaliating on mosques in Abuja, Kano , Jos and Kaduna... Alongside their worshippers at Friday prayers
I tire o... Prayer and no
I tire o... Prayer and no action.
Prayer/Faith without work is dead.. in the bible too
Prayer/Faith without work is dead.. in the bible too.. We need workers and not prayer people, we have churches in every corner of Nigeria right now yet things are getting worse, we need hard working men and women of integrity who want to see a country succeed.. the pastors and bishops all queue up in Aso Rock or completely abstain from politic and yet you are asking for prayers.. My friend please preach hard work, integrity, dedication and patriotism rather than [prayer warriors for our beloved country
Insulting our head of state is unpatriotic
Please stop abusing him if you are not happy with his style of goververnance wait untill 2015 and vote him out. All the comments expressed through this social media proved that you guys are been paid by the political opponents as it neither logical or make any sense.. I am sick of hearing Nigerians whether you voted him or not he is our president and it desire some respect. Other citizens of other countries will be prepared to died for their country's flag talk less when it comes to the person of their head of state been abused. Enough is enough if you are not prepared to accept Nigeria as your country please ,,,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You can apdopt any other country alternatively show some patriotism and respect who ever is you president..
For God sake, what is Jona
For God sake, what is Jona doing with such a large crowd on his entourage. Can someone educate me because I don't know much about this diplomatic travels. I believe this is a way of wasting our God-given resources without a recourse to what happens to the ordinary man on the street and must he always travel with his cumbersome wife?
Re- You are a standard bastard.
You have said nothing.

I guess when you wrote exams
I guess when you wrote exams you just prayed and God miraculously made you pass without you having to open a single book and when you need money to eat and pay your rent you just pray and money just falls yafun yafun from Heaven without you having to do an honest day's work. Please let us not hide behind the Holy Bible to encourage mediocrity, corruption and bad governance. The man needs to do his job as the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces the Federal Republic of Nigeria. If he can't let him step aside for those who can abeg!!
