PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN IS A LEARNER, SAYS FORMER VP “ATIKU”

Former Nigerian VP, Atiku Abubakar says President
Goodluck Jonathan does not have what it takes to
rule the country.
Former Vice President of the Nigeria, Alhaji Atiku
Abubakar, says President Goodluck Jonathan is a
learner in terms of leadership and has no experience
despite being on the mantle for over five years now.
Atiku who is a perennial contestant in the
presidential race in the country believes he has more
experience than the incumbent and if he is elected
president in the 2015 election, he has what it takes
to move the country forward and out of the wood it
currently finds itself.
Speaking with the French News Agency, AFP, the
Adamawa State strong man who was the number
two man from 1999 to 2007, says all the woes and
calamities befalling the country can be traced to
Jonathan’s incompetence, especially the insurgency
that has been ravaging the North Eastern parts of
the country for years now.
This insurgency shouldn’t have lasted even six
months. Within weeks, we (Obasanjo and I) crushed
it because we did not neglect military training and,
of course, we did not lack the leadership and the
capacity to take decisions.
I told Nigerians that Jonathan did not have the
capacity; he didn’t have the experience.
He didn’t have anything and yet they gave him the
chance, the opportunity.
And they can now see the chance and the
opportunity they gave him. Of course, I’m more
experienced than he is.
I believe my capacity cannot be compared with his,
in all respect.
Do you think Alhaji Atiku would fare better as
president of Nigeria?
