MY TRANSITION HOURS: A PSEUDOLOGIA FANTASTICA - ZAINAB ABIOLA
"Goodluck Jonathan's "My Transition Hours" is a pseudologia fantastica, a monumental manipulation of historical facts and figures. The claim by Jonathan that former US President Barack Obama and ex-UK Prime Minister David Cameron interfered with the country’s 2015 election is “ludicrous. Jonathan did not want to believe that Nigerian voters swept him out of power because of his gross incompetence and ineptitude. I think the only option left for Jonathan is to plead with God and Nigerians for forgiveness and until we forgive him, he should remain in his purgatory of lethargy.
No amount of write-up can erase the fact that he took this great nation for granted. The indeprecabilis question for Jonathan to answer is "what did he do with the power Nigerians entrusted him with?" Did he ameliorate the sufferings of Nigerians or even the marginalized Niger Deltans? Did he even put drinking water in his own village? Are Jonathan’s village mansions accessible by road? Why does he charter helicopters to travel to his own village? Jonathan said corruption is not stealing and thereafter flagged off the looting spree of the treasury, which ultimately plunged Nigeria into recession when he left. Jonathan will go down in history as Nigeria’s worst political mistake." - Zainab Duke-Abiola.
