The guy has been through a lot sha, in his reign some pple in the north vowed to make his reign a hell and so many challenges because he's not a politician but a Father and teacher. This must have touched him. God is with U̶̲̥̅̊ President GEJ, we've seen worse leaders.

presidential weep availet much *RME*

Weeping won't solve the problem. We need justice!!!! He should act right. Let those behind this very unfortunate event be punished. Even if it won't bring back the precious lives lost, at least it will serve as a warning to other companies who are all out for profit making, without considering that human life is irreplaceable.

He weeps, why? He shouldn't cry crocodile tears yet oooo....Did he not also weep during other fatal attacks for innocent victims from bomb blast to ethnic clashes. yet, he can not perform his duties as a leader/president... His wife kpa kpa, nothing!!! #GodiswatchinghimandDame#

Terrible regime GEJ, from boko haram bombings of Kano, churches, police and UN headquarters in Abuja to mention a few, strike due to subsidy removal, plane crashes, tanker explosions, etc. What went wrong? We thought you were the answer?

Tunde said...

I don't understand why people blame GEJ for problems that existed long before he came into power. It doesn't make any sense at all. I don't think these are crocodile tears either. PERSONALLY, I feel like GEJ DOES have good intentions for Nigeria, but there are definitely bad people in government who are in the way of progress for selfish reasons. I know the most ignorant ones will bash me on this, but face fact, most of Nigeria's problems existed before GEJ got into politics, talk less of when he came into power. He's been in for a year now, you cannot expect him to do wonders for a really dysfunctional country in a year can you?

Is it an ordinary coincidence that this is coming almost exactly after his one year in office as a means of appeasing the gods? Let the truth be told..the blod of the innocent will remain on an incompetent government, the individuals that deliberately cut corners for pecuniary purposes and the idiotic company that played ludo with the life of hardworking innocent citizens

@anon 7:10 can you do half of what he has accomplished in his life? I think not. GEJ has done a lot for himself regardless of him being president or not. So who is the real failure here? It must be you.

TufiakwaAtPeoplesDestructiveParty said...

These PDP (People's Destructive Party) bastards and their crocodile tear. Look at that pathetic piece of shit Nnamdi Udoh the Chief Executive and Managing Director of NAMA (Nigerian Airspace Management Agency). That bastard has the blood of the 153 victims on his hands. He job is to enforce the safety of all traveling personals and he can't even do that right!! God save Nigeria from these animals.

Anonymous said...

@Tunde, i don't agree withyou. He isadding to the problem. He is not keeping to his promises, rather, he is making it worse. Please don't say that he can't help, he can but he's chosen to be WORSE than his predecessors. GEJ's choice!

Crying is not the solution to these series of trouble in our country, let him stand on his feet and take responsibility, after crying he will enter his house and sleep. He should make those who own Dana air face the law without pity or better still freeze all their assets until they explain to the public the history and how the got this faulty plane 4rm Alaska

Tunde said...

@anon 7:22 thanks for not being mean about disagreeing. But can I ask, how exactly has he ADDED to the problem. And if he is adding to it, is it entirely his fault or are there any other factors that contributed to it? (from others etc)Let's not forget, GEJ cannot make decisions on his own since it's not entirely a dictatorship. People in his party will definitely have a say in whatever he does.

Anonymous said...

Thank you! My father said the exact same thing. They needed blood and couldn't get it from the Unilag students. Before those Nigerians in diaspora will start calling us diabolic, or over spiritual, lemme quickly say this. Naija has loads of evil men in politics. Dread them. I worked at cargo handling at the airport, when a cooler dropped and human fingers fell out in their hundreds. The cooler comes every week for a particular governor, and that was the first time its content was revealed. Trust me, his people were on ground to clear the air and bury the story instantly.

Tunde said...

@anon 7:28 I completely agree with you. I think you've even put it better than I could have. Whether people like it or not, A LOT will need to be done for Nigeria to get better. And this one man will need TIME and EFFORT to put certain things in place because it's like people are kicking against the change that is for the betterment of the nation.

I saw the sincerity of his pain. Common guys, its not his fault that all these stuff are happening. He is surrounded by higher principalities waiting to suck blood. GEJ is just a pawn. We need a mentalo to come and wipe all the Anenihs, OBJ, JP Clark,PDP excecutives,Northern oligarchy etc. Then we can now start. Every single idiot would sit up.Jonathan is just a scape goat. I would advise him also not to come back in 2015 and he should announce it, so they would allow him to rule in relative peace. Those guys in Abuja operate on another level ooh.They must suck blood. Jona, i beg you leave their country for them till we get the crazy military guy that would kill them.(JJ Rawlings style in Ghana) Then we would start all over again. The rate we are going is getting really scary

@ anon 8:03 pm yes I would better than him if I were in his shoes. Is he not suppose to make sure the country works and demands answers when it doesnt? Is he not supposed to clamp down on corruption and lack of standards or are u among the idiots that believe his hands are tied? If your hands are tied cos of godfatherism and you truly have the interest of Nigerians at heart and you came to serve, you would resign. Cos as a dummy fool tht he is there he is doing no one no good. His tenure will go down as one of the darkest in Nigeria. Shame for a man who grew up knowing the pains of the masses, a man who according to him had no shoes. Now we Nigerians are losing our legs and hearts

LET US BE HONEST TO OURSELVES, 97% OF NIGERIANS ARE CORRUPT!

At the Intnl Airports, the Immigration will search ur bag and ask for bribe for u to take ur dried fish/crayfish, to travel.
U want to get ur Transcript, they collect bribe.
Lecturer collect Bribe.
Police Collect Bribe.
Gateman collect bribe before e go tell u weda oga/madam dey house.

Civil Servant go collect bribe before u go go see oga, before dem go sign paper, before dem go deliver message.

Only very very few pple are exempted from this BRIBERY and CORRUPTION and that is based on SELF IMPOSED DISCIPLINE.

So the Whole nation needs help, not only GEJ/PDP and the people in power.

If you remove GEJ and place an average Nigerian on that Seat, he/she will do worse. So I think Hypocrisy is also part of the game since everybody is innocent until proven guilty.

To all these Idiots trying to defend him and saying Nigerians should stop blaming him, you fools are all the cause of Nigeria's problems. 1st rule of leadership: Everything is your fault. If you can't do anything, step aside and let someone who can. It's this stupid attitude of finding an excuse for our leaders that has led to our passiveness. And this passiveness is what allows our leaders to continue ignoring our well being and exploiting our resources.

11 years of democracy and things have actually gone worse, and yet you stupid people still say the leader has tried and don't blame him. What try? What the heck has he done? People are dying in the north to Boko Haram, in the south due to bad roads and all over the country from hunger, lack of security and yet you say the leader has tried. Thunder fire the leader and those who think he's not to blame.

Anonymous said...

OK GEJ we appreciate your tears and all, but you know what may help the situation? Answers. So while the 3 days of mourning is on please be talking to the aviation ministry and to Dana Air. We want a comprehensive, bullshit-free report. We want to know who exactly is responsible, what exactly happened, and then we want to know what is going to be done about it. Even more important, we want to see it being done! There's no need to cry. Believe me we'd rather have your actions than your tears. We'll cry our tears ourselves. Thanks.

Sometimes we do not want to take credit for our evil choices, we want to blame them on God ...R.C. Spur! You, I, everyone here needs to change their attitude. We care too much about money. We want wealth at the expense of our neighbour...sadly wealth will never be enough. Now lives have perished...in a week at the maximum, life will continue. The issue will be swept under the carpet and Dana or Air Nigeria or Aero Contractors or Chachangi Airline will continue business as usual. I dont know if GEJ has all the blames, but what I am sure of is that he has people who work with him, I am also sure the person who asked the plane to move is not GEJ. He is human, He is one of us. Some of you commenting here have uncles that work in the tower control room of MM2, some of those uncles and aunties failed to do their duties...Is that GEJ's fault too? We care less as long as it doesnt concern us and there is money to be made...our values have gone with the wind...thereafter we blame God for our misfortune. Someone sent me a bb broadcast message saying God's protection is ever sure...As much as I agree, I wont test God by jumping in front of a moving train, neither will i drive my car when I know the brakes are faulty...Sadly this is what we do in Nigeria. Things spoil and we pray, we pray to a God who is not irresponsible...We are! Make a change wherever you are. Start with your self, be accountable to God..dont do things because your boss is watching. Do things because God is watching and gradually change will spread as a wide fire! LIB PLS POST MY COMMENT! Thank you

If you want to know how difficult it is to lead, please go to where Moses grave is, call on his dead bones three times and he will tell you how the children of Israel deprived him of his promise land. He never made it. Tunde, a presidential sit is not let me try and see how it feels position, even if the problem existed before he start politics is not the issue here, the fact that he promise he is going to fix it what we are saying fix it!! And by fixing it, you have got to fight ccorruption first. You can't tell me that GEJ did not eat Nigerians money as a vice president do u? He's not clean, no one in PDP is. So if you inherit poverty from ur father and debt, you are going to pay when debtors come knocking. If you inherit wealth, you still enjoy when your father passes , weather he didn't creat the problem or not, he swear an oath that he will fix it so he needs to act more. As a commander in chief, you are not suppose to shed tear on the camera just to prove a point, you suppose to tough both indeeds & action, not like a woman. Head of military is not suppose to show his weakness and emotions like that, you are trained to be tough!!!! I guess he never got such training so. Let me stop here!

He came with a Presidential jet and blaring sirens,why did he not pass thru the dilapidated airports and the run-down Federal highways ???? bloody undertaker,visiting each death scene to cry crocodile tears! the same alacrity he used to send soldiers to quell the Ojota uprising and to change UNILAG's name,he should use to arrest the bastard Indians that killed our people!

We all voted for him not knowing that he is a spineless green snake under the green grass. Kai, how did we all voted for a mumu like this. How i wish i can take my vote back and throw it away because i will never ever give it to that JIHADIST called BUHARI.

Ok people oya start abusing GEJ, since we are so sure he is the cause of all things bad in Nigeria... First step to healing is acceptance, until then, Nigerians need to brace themselves cause it ain't over. If you at any point anyone thought or believed that GEJ in 1yr should turn around years of negligence, common man's corruption, greed infested country or he should be some sort of superhero and single handedly monitor and correct what everyone in every area of govt is doing, then pls stop reading here because you are obviously too stupid to comprehend the rest of what I am going to say. What is happening to us as a nation is called repercussion...
Its like when you used your like it is immortal, drive it from Abuja to Lagos, ur mama then drove it from Lagos to Enugu, put gas when you can, use the money you were suppose to use to change the oil to eat and drop trash in it, then months later, the check engine light comes on, but so long as the car is driving, you keep spending oil change money. As time goes your sister now ask, "Can I pls use ur car to run to market, I promise I will put gas and change oil, on her way to the market, she put N100 gas, cause she wants to put the more before she drops the car for you, unfortunately, the car knocks engine, 2miles to the market, and your start abusing your sister that she ruined your car.

People if you have ear listen, we as Nigerians as a whole are to be blamed for what is going on in our country, "Every one of us" and until everyone accept the part they have played in this whole mess, this will not resolve!

Sorry Linda, I didn't mean to write an article, just can't believe the ignorance of most people and then the audacity of some others who do have some knowledge of Nigerian History! Sometimes I wish GEJ do act like OBJ, talk rubbish about him and he will visit you and your family, nonsense!. Na now una remember say Nigeria be democratic nation!

This is so emotional. I hope this will be a wake up call or time for change where these leaders will want to do something different with their lives instead of the corruption, wickedness and greed.

It's easy for many of you to come here and talk. I bet your fathers are more corrupt than the president or head of state that Nigeria has ever had.

The purpose of leadership is to solve those problems sir, if he made a choice to contest, he then should have understood these issues and had plans to tackle them. I'll take a competent leader over a compassionate leader any day.

@Tunde and all the others defending GEJ and saying he does not work for Dana, I worry about your lack of depth of thought. It is the incompetence and corruption that permeates all of governance in Nigeria, starting from GEJ, that has resulted in this crash. If he did his job and was stern and clear about his direction for this country, so would his Ministers and everyone down the line. So his weakness and incompetence is why everything is falling down around him. Yet he sheds stupid tears. And why not? His electorate like you don't hold your leaders accountable. Who begged him to take a job that he was incapable of performing? Oloriburuku!

While I sympathise with Mr. President for this monumental loss of lives, think he shld use this sad opportunity to act as a man by taking a decisive action in the aviation sector. The time for an integrity test of all aircraft in Nigeria is now and this should be done by Internationally acredited firm.

It saddens my heart to see such a display for the galaries. What in the world is he shedding them tears for. The same reaction and displays that everybody saw with Petroleum Minister when she was minister for works when she visited the Ore Benin Road and promised the heavens, what was the resultant consequence, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. So please take back your tears and get back to the creaaks cos you are not fit to rule this crazy ass counrty. They need a more mature and vibrant mind and not a PUPPY. They need to close down Dana Air and Air Nigeria NOW and follow up with others to make sure that they are doing the right thing. You can manage a vehicle because if it brakes down on the road, you look for a mechanic or abondone the crap and catch a ride out. But in the air? you cannot stop but keep coming down and that's what happened to Dana Air.

I really do pity president jona,in as much as he has failed us in several places which i believe he is being manipulated by those so called ''godfathers'' and thus disobeying them might result to some unpleasant things.this man has conscience and he is humane,i only pray God to help him.....

Y.Tee said...

Whatever!!GEJ should park out of sight jorrr. Even Jesus Christ weep, but then He went right ahead and did something about the situation that upset him so much!

Mr. president sir, the only time i'll feel REAL pity for you is when you grow a really tough backbone and do something about this whole situation. Start doing something about just one of our numerous problems in this country, and you'll be shocked how Nigerians will help you with the rest. I just pray God gives you the wisdom to carry this load you have accepted.

May the souls of the departed rest in peace and may their loved ones be truly comforted.#iweepformycountry.

Never seen Government officials cry at the scene of any of the numerous motor accidents claiming lives everyday in Nigeria.

There is an equal need for govt to regulate the Road transport system (if any exists) cos the majority of Nigerians travel by road.

May the souls of the victims of air crash and motor accidents be granted eternal rest in God's kingdom. Amen!

Y.Tee said...

GEJ is a jelly. For real. Is this the only national disaster we have endured??? Does he shed tears whenever Boko Haram strikes and kill innocent people just because of him??? Does he cry everytime Fulani herdsmen attack women and children in Jos??? Everytime people die because of bad roads???I think the tears our dear president is shedding is just for the camera.

Take a look at Fashola, he got to the site of the incident, and changed 3 orphans lives instantly. That's a man there and not our chicken-livered president.

He should cry us a sea, then we'll see if his tears can drown Boko Haram. #iweepformycountry

I just received this -


"Is there any way of getting confirmation about news I'm just getting that the Dana plane was distressed for a while but could not make an emergency landing because the airspace was closed for 2 hours for  the Presidential Jet carrying Dame Patience Goodluck Jonathan.

Private jet owners who had to hover in the air same time leaked this. This was apparently the reason local news didn't report the crash for so long till CNN and foreign news stations started reporting it.

Local news was 'blacked out' trying to kill the story of the airspace being closed while a distressed plane couldn't land.

It would be shocking if so. Though there was engine failure there was still time for the plane to have landed apparently.

You do know anyway that the airspace is closed for up to 2hours each time the Presidential Jet needs to go into the air? 2 hours for a 15minute take off or landing!

And this jet is used by President, VP, President's wife and if I recall David Mark.

It's almost a daily occurrence I've been told by airline staff when it caught me out on a trip


The truth remains that the President's wife was actually in Lagos to attend the christening of their personal assistant's child at the Oriental hotel.. Lekki. Anyone living on the Lekki axis saw first hand the horrendous traffic caused by the president's wife's visit..and confirmed reports from airport staff who volunteered information, collaborated this fact, that the Lagos airport was actually shut for 2 hours, about the same time the ill fated Dana Plane crashed. This also strongly explains the reason why Aero contractor airplane could not depart Abuja for Lagos at 3:40pm because of the closure of the Lagos airport. This is criminal and one can only imagine the deep sorrow ad-in-finitum (without limit) that the families of these unfortunate Nigerians and other nationals are currently plagued into. Grief that is so thick in the air, that one can cut through with a knife...rooted soul searching. Yes we have to and yes we can; beginning from our immediate homes and While we pray for the repose of the souls of the departed, we need as a nation to thoroughly do some deep ommunities.. with time this will snowball into our National consciousness. For how long are we going to sacrifice the lives of our dear brothers and sisters and by extension mortgage the future of their/our children, just for the comfort of our leaders? For a 15 minutes ritual of plane take-off, an airport was shut for 2 hours because our "DEAR FIRST LADY" was scheduled to return to Abuja.. OH merciful God, help Nigeria in Distress!''

NIgerians need to know what happened?who closed the airstrip for two hours on sunday june 3,2012????

@ Asampokoto, why do u talk like u r not Nigerian? dont u think u r myopic? i know so. i guess u know that the wider picture still brings jonathan, a head of a sick society into focus. if u are vast as you want to arogate albeit wrongly, u will know that the society is decaying. with a currupt leader, square pegs are placed in round holes and what u get in sectors are disasters cos unaffected checks can never be carried out when bribery is a shorter way out. Dont think sick man! think before u write and stop being myopic and unnecesarily generic in ur thoughtless, empty and baseless argument.

hmmmm! tears for what nah?.its a shame that someone can open his mouth and say GEJ has accomplished a lot for himself? who gives a shit? the presidential office is not about him , its about serving people..and why go for it if you know you are a spineless incompetent moron(no apologies).

boko haram( a handful of hungry looking un-intelligent irritants) are in his backyard in Abuja ...yet he can't strike at them and end their movement... and you say we have a president ?***i spit in disgust and anger**

in other parts of the developed world, the boss NAA in charge of aviation or whatever the heck its called would have tendered his resignation by now as a result of this.that is what is called taking ownership and not crying crocodile tears.

we Nigerians have none but ourselves to blame ..for voting in a man that has never been elected for any office post in his life before, no experience..no pedigree..yet we voted..Why ? ..because he is from the south south,..he is a christain....NONESENSE. this is the result of our sentiments rather
than using commonsense.

politicians have studied the Nigerian masses like a book for years... they know what buttons to push to get the kind of reaction they want.

my only consolation is that i personally knew that this guy called our president would be a failure ...reason i did not bother to cast my vote.

RIP to the ones who have once again paid the ultimate price for being citizens of a failed state .

God help Nigeria.

Still trying to recover from the disappointment of this govt. I guess he has reached a breaking point? Yeye

Kpele!! Get more efficient or the pain of Nigeria will be visited on you. All we want is efficiency and honesty. Please help settle the people that have been affected from this. We shall pray for you because that is a prayer for Nigeria.... i digress.

It is a terrible situation and quite depressing. may God accept the souls of all the faithful that died from this sudden and unprovided death. Amen

peace!!!!

When you see the bodies of 150 people in a terrible crash like that, what is abnormal about being moved to tears!

Most of you are ritualists anyway, so you have no feelings.

Nigerians will soon get what they deserve, a return to the dark days of old. When God tries to redeem Nigeria by giving them a President and team working tirelessly to improve things, Nigerians respond with hate, abuse, bombs.

If Nigeria ever fails, they deserve it. A bunch of selfish, tribal, narrowminded, short-sighted and greedy fools.

Please who are you. Don't be an idiot abeg be saying what you don't know. How do you know they are ritualists? Ignorance will be the death of you. Don't say what you don't know nigga. You should be very ashamed, you're a disgrace to the human race. You don't trash a country you know nothing about. Nigeria is a blessed country so shut the fuck up and get your crazy ass the fuck outta here. Fucking idiot.

You guys sef, bunch of ignorant humans. Y'all are talking about how GEJ is crying crocodile tears and blah blah. Seeing Nigeria as a whole, do you think its easy to lead a nation like it? No offence. Nigeria was basically built on corruption so how you gonna lead a nation with corruption that deeply rooted in it? And again being a president is not an easy task, most of you talking shit here won't be able to do half of what he's doing. Besides the fate of Nigeria doesn't only depend on who the president is but also the people. You guys are the ones corrupt. Wind of change this, wind of change that you lot say. Search yourselves. Don't be taking out the frustration of what the country was built on, on people who are trying to make it better.
