President Jonathan bows down to traditionalists for Prayers

President Goodluck Jonathan is really interested in the votes from the South-West and it seems he is ready to go to any length to get the votes, including visiting pastors, groups, and now traditionalists for endorsements and prayers.

But the APC said Jonathan is just wasting his time as the Yoruba's cannot be deceived:

"For such a President (Jonathan) to now crawl about in Yorubaland, seeking their votes to continue in office is nothing short of insulting the intelligence of the Yoruba people. That is aggravated insolence.

“Jonathan will pay a price equal in magnitude to his deliberate crime against the Yoruba nation; for nobody pokes a dirty finger in the eyes of the Yoruba people and gets away with it. Jonathan will get the red card in Yorubaland, and he will fall.

“The party said that since Jonathan became comfortable in his position as President – largely through the efforts of Yoruba intellectuals and political leadership – the President has been so negatively disposed to Yoruba that his Federal Government did practically nothing of significance to encourage the sympathy of the Yoruba nation.

“It is therefore a wasted effort for the President to be frantically seeking the support of Yoruba traditional leaders who already know how bitter their people are against Jonathan,’ the APC said, adding that ‘Yoruba people can see, feel and taste the deceit in President Jonathan’s promises. They cannot trust him after the humiliating treatment of the last six years of Jonathan’s Presidency."
