"1,000 REASONS WHY NIGERIANS VOTED FOR JONATHAN GOODLUCK AND NOT FOR THE PDP"

‎Nigerians voted for GEJ for all the reasons under the sun except for merit, good leadership skills, exemplary leadership abilities, past records of great performance and achievements in the public elected offices that he held in the past as a public official, as well as his academic achievements as a university teacher and a researcher in zoology. Nigerians in April 2001 voted for JEG on the ground of pure sentiments and never because he was the best presidential material at that election. They voted for JEG because he is a southerner. They voted for JEG because he is a "Christian". They voted for JEG because he was openly anointed by Pastor Adeboye, one of the most popular pastors or the men of God in Nigeria today. They voted for JEG because he came from a humble beginning without having any shoes growing up and his pathetic story of a life of abject poverty growing up as a child. They voted for JEG because he has a PhD in Zoology and the other presidential candidates did not have.

They voted for JEG because they hate to see another Northerner at Aso Rock. They voted for JEG because they hate to see another Hausa or Fulani as the occupant of the Aso Rock villa. They voted for JEG because they hate to see another Muslim at Aso Rock villa. They voted for JEG and not for PDP, because they thought that was how to change a regime or vote PDP out of power in a country that has no independent candidacy in its electoral laws. They voted for JEG because the ACN leaders led by Bola Tinubu told the westerners to vote for him. They voted for JEG because of the uniqueness of his name "Goodluck" that was associated with luck and good omen. They voted for GEJ because he had a very rapid accelerated rise to political power, fame and celebrity status that were all based on the dirty politics of Godfatherism that Olusegun Obasajo designed, planned and executed. The Igbos voted for JEG because he is one of them from the south and has an Igbo name "Azikwe". The South-South voted for JEG because he is the "son of the soil."
