Jonathan’s 2015 Posters Flood Ogun State
President Goodluck Jonathan’s 2015 presidential campaign posters were spotted strategically displayed in various parts of Ogun, on December 16, 2013, Monday.
Residents
of some communities within the state also confirmed seeing the posters
which had him wearing the traditional Yoruba cap and smiling.
The
poster bore no party logo, but it is generally believed that President
Jonathan plans to return to the seat of power through the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), the ruling party, at the centre of which is
riddled with controversies.
The
simple message on the posters seen at the Toll Gate end of the
Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway as well as the Sango area of Ogun state, read:
“Continuity is ok, tomorrow will be far better. It is now or never.”
Though the President is yet to publicly state if he plans to return, analysts say his body language says it all.
Moreover,
some people, including ex-militants, believed to be beneficiaries of
his government had often
declared that Jonathan must run for a second
term.
One
of such loyalists, Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, who had maintained that the
country would be ungovernable if Nigerians fail to support Jonathan in
2015, reportedly gave in recently declaring that under a free and fair
election, Jonathan, a Niger-Deltan, would lose.
Also,
the President is facing a serious heat from his party, as five
governors in the party recently defected to the opposition All
Progressives Congress (APC), while others are demanding the removal of
the PDP National Chairman, Bamanga Tukur.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo last week levelled serious allegations against President Jonathan, who he assisted to become the President.
One
of such allegations was that due to the President’s desperation for
2015, he already has 1000 politicians on his watch list while training snipers for use during the coming election.
What do you think of such a premature start of the 2015 presidential campaign?
