The President in a post on his Facebook wall yesterday acknowledged that there were still some challenges regarding the fight against the Boko Haram terrorist group in the North-Eastern part of the country.

President Jonathan, who was elated with the turnaround of things in the region said: “I am gratified that my people in both states are experiencing greater levels of security due to the efforts of our gallant military.”
The President, however, prayed to God to bless Nigeria.
Reacting to the development, Adeyemi Juwon said: “We need to reciprocate this noble gesture by supporting the drive of Mr President in ensuring never again will any part of our country held hostage by terrorist. You are doing your best and remember that those on your side are more than those against the Peace of Nigeria.”
Austin Ufoma, who is also a supporter of President Jonathan, said: “God bless you sir. My PVC is for you.” Jacob Nuhu in his remark described Jonathan as the most humble President but lamented that he was too soft for a country like Nigeria.
“My Vote, my family vote and my street vote definitely not for PDP. I need Change,” he said.
Odekunle Oluwaseun Abel described President Jonathan as the best so far in terms of infrastructure and education, while Rose Agbale, who condemned the President move described it as medicine after death.
Ibraheem Yunusa Ali prayed the President return safely saying: “Hope you reach home back safely Mr. Presido, my PVC is ready for you I’m only waiting for March 28.” Orjiakor Ijeoma said carry go my humble president, while Edeyan Emmanuel reiterated that he is forever on the President Jonathan’s side.

Ebi Amboh remarked that: “Is it going to be umbrella or broom for you? Well, come Saturday March 28 election day, two situations may crop up with regards to weather. It may possibly be a day of light or heavy downpour, or a hot day with moderate or scorching sun in the afternoon. Whichever way it goes, some items, especially items like umbrellas will always remain useful, while some other items, especially items like brooms will be absolutely useless, be it on a sunny or rainy day! In both ways- with regards to the political weather of Nigeria- umbrella represents: shelter, comfort, positive transformation, and hope for the Nigerian youths, while on the other hand, broom – a symbol of juju priests and ritualists, respresents: hopelessness and dissimulated change. Which one is it going to be for you as you place your thumb print on that ballot paper on election day, is it going to be that useless broom or that uselful umbrella?

Bonny Fran lamented that Nigerian people keep using big grammar and if you ask them to breakdown the word “CORRUPTION” with tangible facts, they can’t explain it. Instead they will mention $20 billion, N65 million, this and that. He alleged that the rich wants to get rid of Jonathan because it is no longer business as usual for them.
According to him, President Jonathan has truly decided to ensure that the masses sees the wealth of the nation in terms of his transformation agenda, adding that Jonathan has refused to take order from those cabals and continues to cut off their corrupts activities day in day out as seen in the stoppage of Ghost workers’ pay in the civil services.
“Those cabals do not want to see railway restoration in this country because of their trailers; They don’t want to see agricultural improvement so that only them can continue to import food items or have food items supplied from their farms; they also vowed to frustrate electricity power project because importation of Generator sets is in their care; The cabals wanted only PRIVATE schools and were so unhappy that GEJ could build over 12 New Federal Universities which is against their interest; the Cabals creates and uses insecurity to loot our monies, hearing and seeing that GEJ wanted to purchase ammunitions to fight insecurity, they were not happy with such a development and they started all forms of attack to stop ammunition seller from selling ARMS to Nigeria.”
Christian Enukpere in his response said: “why do we allow sentiment to cloud our judgment? why in this computer age we allow analogue ideals to retard our growth? I have not met the president one on one, but his good works speaks volume for him. Friends, change is the only constant thing in life, As we clamour for change, lets know change can either be for good or bad, and we refuse to go back. GEJ is change for good. GMB lies if he says he is sinless. It only means he is calling God a liar because the true tests in judging someone is by comparing his good and bad. If his good outweighs his wrong then he is a good man. Same can be ascribed to GEJ, a humble man, a core and practising democrat, forget it friends, GEJ will win this election, his achievements are so obvious that it will take a real devil not to acknowledge it.”

Onyinye S. Ibe said: “The cheerful ad always happy president even when the whole world turns against you, you know there is God in heaven who is always there for you, thank you my Presido. God will always show you his mercies and help.”
Meanwhile, Daramola Sogzy Oluwafemi used the medium to raise some sensitive questions for the major opposition party, the All Progressive Congress (APC) and its presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari.
“No amount of propaganda can deceive us! when you kill NYSC students and many other Nigerians just because you lost 2011 presidential elections. You stoned the president just because he was campaigning in the North and nobody ask you why…But u want to go to ICC because OPC’s demonstration in Lagos state…My question is ” DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING GOOD FOR NIGERIA”? Oluwafemi asked.
Edeyan Emmanuel O while defending the President alleged that the Northerners are donating their sons and daughters to Boko-Haram, yet they will still be blaming President Jonathan.
