As shared on

After going
through all I could lay my hands on, I'm further convinced that the people who
President Jonathan entrusted with authority in different sectors of the economy
and government did him in.
And they did
this smoothly & strategically. The crop of people I'm talking about, were
those one who were more concerned with their goals to enrich themselves, so
they were going about doing everything they could to amass wealth.
Then there
was this other group who were building their political dreams will turning
GEJ's administration to a nightmare. They tactically made sure they alienated
all those who had superior reason and better advice, away from him.
They
strategically put him on a war path with those who he should have had as his
backbone in the unpredictable storms of Nigerian politics. They knew that if he
listened to those people they (the vultures) would starve.
Two
examples.
After an
event, ADC sent word to see GEJ. While waiting, at about 1:30am or later, 8 or
more senators came to inform him of the plans by members of National Assembly
to cross carpet with their Governors.
Some leaders
of PDP, were there. They told GEJ to forget them. Good riddance! one of them
said. The devil is in the detail. If governors who fund the party machinery
cross carpet, it exposes your party.
When they
take their reps and senators, it endangers your President. So, 3 weeks after
that meeting, there was mass defections. That was when PDP rushed to court to
stop them.
Another
instance, this time it was a phone call, when I was in Abeokuta. Baba had just
come back from a UN envoy trip. He told GEJ, to think very well & beyond
the 16/19 elections of Gov's Forum. That if 19 govs voted Amaechi, then you
have enemies in your camp.
Baba said
accept the result, deal with it later because the world was watching. For wia?
The advisers, said call his bluff.
Now, it is
clear, they were all fighting for themselves. Not GEJ. They all enriched
themselves to the detriment of his administration. Bet he is shocked at some
revelations.
I have known
him since Deputy GOV days and I can say, he was betrayed by many of his foot
soldiers. If I be GEJ, everyone go answer him papa name.
