GoodLuck Jonathan Has Done Below Average – Obasanjo

Recall when everyone thought, former President Obasanjo, handpicked Jonathan as the running mate to the late President Musa Yar’Adua because he knew that Yar’Adua was sick, well, Olusegun Obasanjo on Friday, while speaking with book writers in Abeokuta, debunked all such insinuations, while also describing the performance of President Goodluck Jonathan as below average.

When asked of his view on Jonathan’s administration, Obasanjo said:

“His performance is below average. I will not accept responsibility for his performance. There is nobody that gets such a position without being helped.”

According to Obasanjo, he only supported the idea of a South-Southerner succeeding Yar’Adua to extend the sense of belonging that the emergence of a Southern President in 1999 represented, Punch reports.
Anyways, the Presidency on Friday said a statement credited to Obasanjo that President Goodluck Jonathan’s performance is below average was “not true and in error.” and according to Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, said this in a telephone interview with SATURDAY PUNCH, said:

“If indeed former President Obasanjo said that, that statement was in error because no government since independence has done close to 50 per cent of what this administration has done in less than four years,”.

What’s your take – Is Obasanjo right on the scorecard????
