THE POLITICIAN COLOURED NOVEMBER 2013 | Page 14

Of course not, it was clear that certain individuals were not happy with the decision to make President Jona- than acting President after the death of our beloved President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, and they decided to make his Presidency a living hell. My Fellow Nigerians, our problems are much deeper than what we are being shown in the media. President Goodluck Jonathan urgently needs our support and our prayers because we have no idea what type of internal conspiracy that man is facing. He honestly wanted to transform this country, but as you all are seeing with your own eyes, certain power hungry and greedy elements in the society have vowed to frustrate him and his agenda. Even within his political party we have all seen what is going on. People who have no moral authority to call the President “corrupt” are opening their mouths, the entire thing is laughable. They’re calling themselves “The New PDP”, wow, what an original name. What exactly is new about their movement? Do they have new policies or new politicians with fresh ideas? No they don’t. It’s just the same old faces wrestling for power and claiming to be fighting for Nigerians. The truth of the matter is that 2015 is on the mind of some of these so called New PDP members and the desire to seize power by any means is far more important to them, than the chaos and national instability that their actions are causing. Instead of them to concentrate on the job that they were elected for as Governors of their individual states, they’re busy running up and down Abuja holding press conferences. The people in their states need food, water, healthcare, quality education and employment today, but all their Governors are doing is plotting about 2015 and if some of them become President in 2015 what is this new thing that they’re going to do for Nigerians? Nigerians need to wake up, and refuse to allow themselves to be deceived by these selfish career politicians who do not seem to want to join any other profession other than politics or rather poli-tricks as one of my friends would say. Nigerians should rise up and tell those people who are not allowing President Goodluck Jonathan to govern that enough is enough. We should not allow ourselves to get mixed up in the politics of ethnicity because we are all Nigerians and the majority of us believe in “one Nigeria”. We don’t want to divide the country because many of us have friends and relatives from practically every tribe and religion and we see ourselves as one people. I repeat, President Jonathan needs our support, our encouragement and most importantly our prayers. He means well for this country, but if we are honest with ourselves we will admit that right from the onset of his administration the plot to make Nigeria ungovernable for him thickened. There is a conspiracy by some demonic elements in the system to frustrate President Goodluck Jonathan out of office, and every well meaning Nigerian can see it. No matter how much money or followers you think you have, you’re not God and therefore you cannot behave as if Nigeria is your personal property, and that the only person who can become President is the one you anoint. 8 Even within his political party we have all seen what is going on.
