President Jonathan Goodluck of Nigeria has failed woefully in almost all the parameters that are globally used to measure any good government in any country of the world today. The Nigeria's national economy is growing only on the government paper and failing to reduce the double-digit unemployment rate and the 80% poverty rate. Today, tens of millions of the hardworking Nigerians are still earning poverty wage, the value of the Nigerian Naira remains fluid and unstable against the international currencies. The inflation rate on goods and services is rising, the nation's foreign reserve is rapidly depleting and her foreign debt is bloating up again.
The insecurity to life and properties of all Nigerians has reached the lowest and the worst level in decades. The war against Boko Haram that is supported with huge yearly budget is a colossal failure. This government has failed to provide Nigerians with electricity, basic social services, modern and affordable health care, functioning 21st century public education and the modernization of our old and overcrowded national infrastructures.
The government has remained passive and indifferent in its fight against the menace of the official corruption and the mammoth state resource mismanagement. This is a government that is functioning on many unresolved financial scandals, such as, Malibu oil deal, petroleum subsidy fraud, $20 billion missing oil money from the NNPC and extra-budgetary spendings that violate the financial regulations and laws of Nigeria.
Any Nigerian who plans to vote for this President in 2015 is either the Nigerian is benefitting from the ongoing corruption and the mismanagement of this country or the Nigerian is sentimental with religious bigotry, ethnic loyalty and geopolitical politics that will never make Nigeria a great nation in all reality#NigeriaAnd2015PresidentialElection
