Former President Jonathan finally exposes President Buahri

Buhari and Jonathan

President Buhari blame  game seem to be getting out of hand as most of the accusations are being seen as baseless and does not portray the true person and achievements of the previous administration of Ex-President Jonathan.

The latest blame game which was made by President Buhari during his recent trip to the US as the former President according to report could not withstand the numerous lies of the already failed Buhari’s government, which has inflicted untold hardship to Nigerians from all sectors and regions. Buhari again lied that his administration inherited a failed system with no power, roads, railway to mention but a few.


According to the president, “We got into trouble as a country because we did not save for the rainy day. For example, between 1999 and 2015 when we produced an average of 2.1 million barrels of oil per day, and oil prices stood at an average of $100 per barrel, we did not save, neither did we develop infrastructure. Suddenly, when we came in 2015, oil prices fell to about $30 per barrel.

“I asked, ‘Where are the savings?’ There were none. ‘Where are the railways, the roads, the power?’ None. I further asked, ‘What did we do with billions of dollars that we made over the years?’ They said we bought food. Food with billions of dollars? I did not believe, and still do not believe.”

Contrarily, former president Jonathan debunked Buhari’s false accusation against him, when he said he was very proud of the various strides achieved by his regime which includes the rail project being commissioned by the Buhari’s administration as it was one of his administration’s legacy.


Jonathan, in a Facebook post, made reference to a piece composed by a previous PUNCH journalist, Tolu Ogunlesi, which was distributed on January 12, 2015.

According to the former president, “I am grateful to God and my team for what we were able to achieve with our railways, among other things.”

Ogunlesi, who is now the Special Assistant on Digital/New Media to President Buhari, had applauded Jonathan's accomplishments in a piece entitled, ‘The case for and against President Jonathan.’



Jonathan while making the Facebook post quoted Ogunlesi’s piece verbatim, “Let’s start with infrastructure. On the railways, the Jonathan government scores high marks. The railway line between Lagos and Kano has been revived after about two decades of inactivity.


“The Enugu-Port Harcourt line has just been launched; Abuja-Kaduna is almost finished. There was a determined push to upgrade airports across the country, for which we are grateful.”
