Hahahahahahahhahahahaha....please pardon my outburst...
Jonathan said this in a statement issued by his media aide, Ikechukwu Eze.
Oshiomhole had earlier blamed the former President for introducing vote-buying into Nigerian politics during the 2015 general elections.
In his response, Jonathan said the APC chairman might be going through too much pressure as a result of his new office.
According to Daily Post, he said “We really do not know the real reason for this misleading falsehood, at this point in time. However, we can only guess that Mr Oshiomhole who is currently operating under tremendous stress in the bid to steady the already floundering ship of his administration as the new leader of his party, may have got himself entangled in a voyage of tactless desperation.
“His recent flip-flops where he praised Governor Samuel Ortom and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso one day only to denounce them the very next day, is enough evidence of his fragile psychological state.
“Not only is he content on squabbling with members of the opposition, we note the self-destructive tendencies of Oshiomhole who is locked in a feud with members of his own party including the minister of labour, Chris Ngige, and a host of APC Governors. It appears that Mr Oshiomhole’s psychological strain may have reached boiling point.
“On the vexatious issue of ‘vote-buying’, which has unfortunately found its way into our election lexicon, this is what we know: It is obvious that the shameful development in our democratic experience became very glaring during the 2016 gubernatorial elections in Edo State; an exercise that took place more than one year after President Jonathan had left office.
“It is therefore disingenuous for any politician or group to link the former President with the anomaly, no matter how they want to stretch the now-failing blame game.
“While in Office as President between 2010 and 2015, Jonathan conducted many elections including the 2011 and 2015 general elections, and many off-season gubernatorial and parliamentary elections in some States like Anambra, Ekiti, Ondo and Edo; and not for once did the issue of vote buying come up in the assessment of those elections.
“It is instructive that in each case, the former President was given a clean bill, with both local and international observers commending him for having supervised a credible and transparent process.
“One of those who gave the former President a clean bill of health, was Mr Oshiomhole himself who on July 16, 2012, said: ‘What the Edo election has confirmed is that when the President and Commander-in-Chief puts the country first and he conducts himself as a statesman not just as a party leader, credible elections are possible.’
“When you juxtapose the above statement with Mr Oshiomhole’s current statement, it becomes obvious that the APC Chairman is suffering from multiple personality syndrome and has a Jekyll and Hyde schizophrenia.”
The issue of vote buying was brought to the fore during the recently concluded Ekiti Governorship election where the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the ruling APC were reportedly offering money to voters.

ReplyDeleteOshiomanle should just dive into Sakponba River jejely!
DeleteJonathan conducted elections and handed over to the opposition winner for the first time in Nigerian history. Oshi omo ole is a beneficiary of this. His government promised "change" but instead delivered "chains".
ReplyDeleteWhy is Oshi Omo ole ranting? Face governance and deliver just like Jonathan delivered -a democratic election void of rigging. Or is he trying to find excuse to do vote buying during the 2019 presidential elections?
Shame ole.
