I Built 9 Varsities, 50 Almajiri Schools In 20 Months – Jonathan

Ahead of the February 14 presidential election, President Goodluck Jonathan has started giving account of his stewardship, saying in 20 months of his assumption of office, he built nine universities and 20 Almajiri schools across the country.
The president, who spoke yesterday through his special assistant on new media, Reno Omokri, outlined his achievements via the social media platform, twitter, with a question hashtag #canyourcandidatesaysame?
Apparently responding to the barrage of criticisms on the performance of his administration by the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), Jonathan said he has prioritised education and led an open government, adding that no critic, journalist or newspaper has been jailed or banned for their criticisms.


Omokri who tweeted via his twitter handle @renoomokri, revealed that Jonathan was committed to the ethos of democracy, stressing that Jonathan has never privately or publicly called for violence because of desperation for power.
He stated in his tweet, “In Jonathan’s first 20 months in office, he built nine universities and 50 Almajiri schools. Under Jonathan, education always had either the highest or second highest budgetary allocation.”
According to him, even when power was within his reach in 2010, GEJ did not take it but waited for God to elevate him.
“Jonathan submitted his PhD certificate to INEC in a show of transparency. Jonathan has remained loyal to his party, the PDP, and has NEVER been in another party. God, is Jonathan’s Godfather, not a ‘Chicago Certificate’ described by some as having the “worst corruption cases.”
“Under Jonathan, soldiers never flogged innocent Nigerians on the streets. Jonathan never served under a military government in which pro-democracy activists were brutally murdered. God gave Jonathan power through the votes of millions of Nigerians; he never took it by force”.
Finally, Jonathan said, “My ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian.
“Absolutely nothing ever happens to those who criticise President Jonathan. I wish same can be said about Buhari’s critics like Sheikh Gumi!”
He said, “Jonathan publicly declared he has no property or account abroad and all his children school in Nigeria.
“Bad workmen blame their tools. Why this talk about parallel govt/rejection of elections? You lose Ekiti, it’s rigged. You win Osun, it’s fair.”
