Voodoo, is the best way to describe the NOI American poll which prescribes Jonathan Goodluck as leading other presidential contenders for 2011 election. The poll is low politics full hog. Buhari and others are cuing along Jonathan their major as rumoured.
Voodoo, is the best way to describe the NOI American poll which prescribes Jonathan Goodluck as leading other presidential contenders for 2011 election. The poll is low politics full hog. Buhari and others are cuing along Jonathan their major as rumoured.
Picture this! The NOI poll scores Jonathan Goodluck with 16 percent as ‘man of integrity’ while Buhari is rated only 5 percent as ‘man of integrity.’ Heaven knows that in any sane poll, voters would applaud Buhari as one of the very most reputable Nigerians on earth. Furthermore, Buhari clinched 8 percent for experience while Jonathan scored 18 percent. As if poll participants aren’t aware that Buhari governed Nigeria more than Jonathan would do when he finally hands over next year. See www.noi-polls.net for more absurd grand deception of further result ratings.
The news started from a humble beginning, appearing on a Nigerian internet news blogosphere initially. And uniformly on the 5th November, it dotted all conventional newspapers in Nigeria the same day like tsunami.

When a certain erstwhile American diplomat wrote lately and reported by SaharaReporters.com that, Nigeria as a country is walking on a tightrope hardly did any newspaper in Nigeria cover it. But the news of Jonathan’s lead became a hotcake for them. If you pay the piper, you dictate his tune. That’s by the way for now.
So I flipped the internet to locate source of the poll. Behold! NOI is synonymous with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala former Finance Minister of Nigeria. No one could badmouth the way the onetime minister wears and showcase our traditional attire abroad. But her occupation at the World Bank cut the ice in the negative for all the wrong reasons.
The World Bank has a the mania or bad boy image for using underhand tactics to cheating and racing developing countries to the bottom in furtherance of its personal financial and power profits. Everyone working for Bretton Woods has a share of the bad boy curse hanging on their employer. It’s hard not to suspect and scrutinise every way Ngozi Iweala moves and shakes so long she members World Bank. More so now, when her NOI poll is going ahead to politically sell Nigerians the Richard Nixon dummy. In this era of trust but verify, after Ronald Regan – and, as it constitutes the conventional wisdom in Washington amongst politicians yonder. There is nowhere worldwide where you could ever ‘trust’ occupants of Bretton Woods like Mrs Iweala and therefore, one is left with the ‘verify’ option about Ngozi and her peers in their engagements with poor countries.
My take is that, madam Ngozi’s NOI American poll enterprise just as her World Bank, is populated by international economic hit-men and women, jackals and crooks who know how to talk and walk the international institution and system ways, for cabal profit. Placing Jonathan as core in their poll by crook or hook is an attempt at appeasing him to hand Nigeria over to the Bretton Woods when he finally wins the election – which Modesty forbids! The World Bank and its agents as Mrs Iweala have manifold ways to attune to leaders of Third World countries in order that they mortgage their countries for endless demand of economic and financial rip-offs. They’re well schooled in manipulating international systems and institutions to benefit their Caucasian establishment. They dress their worst intentions as modesty and proper sense of purpose when attempting to capture government machinery of buoyant Third World country. There’s this compulsive survivalist tendency each time they take on an international actor as Nigeria. Those who read the book ‘Economic Hit Man’ by John Perkins know what time it is and what I am talking about.
The gallup poll which put Jonathan as ace is faulty in more ways than one. That a lot of Nigerians on the blogs and streets worldwide have started wondering if the poll was organised in Jonathan’s bedroom in Bayelsa State. Those Nigerians who partook on the NOI phone-polling must be a scary bunch of Nigerians who loves darkness than light.
Are they aware the damages Jonathan’s PDP has wrought on Nigeria? Do they not reckon that Jonathan might not make it in the PDP primary that has become their signature die or die? Did the NOI poll partakers in Nigeria aware of the huge spending for nothing that Jonathan has been doing which has bankrupted Nigeria for now? Are they aware that Jonathan has after giving his okay, refused to pay workers mere 18 thousand Naira per month? Are they not menaced that Jonathan is in the Ribadu’s dossier as one corruption heavy of an ex-governor? Are they not in the know that the president who couldn’t pay his worker trifle salary is buying three airplanes at ones?
So how did they vote to put Jonathan in front row of presidential contenders?
Unless you unite a cabal of international economic hit men with Jonathan Goodluck’s disciples – or else, how do you get such not a watertight porous result? Their endpoint is to throw spanners in the works to politically dis-engineer Nigerians by falsified gallop poll in 2011 election era. The NOI gallop poll birthed by erstwhile finance minister of Nigeria cannot be credible whatsoever. Judging by the lacklustre personality of the organisation she works for which in turn epitomises her own.
Nigerians should be circumspect of international cabal profiteers and survivalist gamblers who together with their Nigerian collaborators, are out to fool Nigerians and make outstanding profits for their Caucasian employers. The deeper Nigeria and other African countries roll in desperation, chaos and bad leadership the better legroom they have to exploit us.
Finally, it’s Mrs Iweala’s NOI poll that has issues with bad reputation and not Buhari. He’d trounce Jonathan Goodluck in any upright poll in Nigeria and sundry places however. I challenge the NOI to do a poll asking if Nigerian would vote for PDP as a party where Jonathan Goodluck is holed up. Thenceforward, NOI should poll Nigerians to ask if they believe that ex-president Obasanjo bedded his female ministers. These are some of the social matters we have in Nigerian now. And I challenge NOI hereon, to do further polls in Nigeria with modest socio-centric behaviour devoid of bias for cabal interest.
