"My advice that a publicity committee made up of eminent journalists be put in place in Aso Rock and that media proprietors and senior journalists should be invited to Aso Rock were jettisoned by Abati because of what I suppose is his covetousness, particularly when many journalists and media houses always complained to me that he was not carrying them along.
Dr.
Reuben Abati has risen to the defence of his last employer too late. He
owes the former President apologies for his (Reuben Abati) failure to
perform while in office. I should not be used as a scapegoat. I love
Goodluck Jonathan and Goodluck Jonathan loves me. I
do not recall any favourable remark made by Abati all those years when
he was the chairman of the Editorial Board [of the Guardian] and
syndicated columnist about the former president, His Excellency, Dr.
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and the First Lady Dame Patience Jonathan. If
I recall correctly, they were always the butt of ridicule by Dr. Reuben
Abati. In fact, he became so notorious and fearless a critic of former
President Jonathan and his wife in the Guardian Newspaper that I had to
draw the attention of my cousin the proprietor of the Guardian newspaper
to his excesses. These
vitriolic attacks on former President Jonathan and his wife only
stopped when he was appointed the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity
by the former president,” he said.
In the email, Clark went further to state that Jonathan was a good president during his tenure.
"He
said he remained proud of the performance of Mr. Jonathan in a number
of areas such as the railway system, economy, fight against polio and
ebola, maternal health, the power sector, etc. He
tarred more roads than any of his predecessors; he turned agriculture
to agro-business, a multibillion dollar business; he built the Almajiri
schools in the Northern parts of this country. He established new
federal universities across this nation; he allowed for free speech
across this nation, and did not mind when he was criticised or, even,
abused. People were not arbitrarily locked up in jail or prison, as he
truly respected the rule of law. He signed the Freedom of Information
Bill into law, which was not done by his predecessors; he modernized the
aviation sector; he convoked a National Conference that brought
Nigerians together and proffered recommendations on how to better bind
Nigerians together as one. He sanitized the electoral system of this
country, unlike what we had before him, when elections results were
announced without actually voting, when ballot snatching were rampant
and common place. He brought transparency into the electoral process –
when people could vote and the votes actually openly counted without
violence. Today he stands as the first African president to concede an
election to an opponent, even before the final counts. In keeping with
my character, I cannot say in private what I cannot say in the public. I
do not therefore, reject or disown Jonathan as my beloved political
son,” he wrote

Edwin Clark claims Reuben Abati sabotaged Jonathan..
Just looking at the face of Edwin, you'll see the face of a traitor. Everyone of them is interested in their own stomach infrastructure.
Can this old man leave Jonathan alone & stop washing their dirty linen outside? We all know Jonathan is a good man who had the single misfortune of surrounding himself with selfish,dishonest & enemies masquerading as friends,all in around him.Too bad,they succeeded in dooming his tenure.
What I don't understand is why this old man has refused to let the sleeping dog lie.We are in a change dispensation, allow the past be in the past biko.
Dem don dey tackle each other now..lol
THE HOMELESS MAN AND THE SHOP OWNER – I CRIED WATCHING THIS STORY, SO WILL YOU

Yeye people! Hahahaha
Politicians wahala,
Mr Edwin Clark is beginning to sound like someone suffering from diarrhea of the mouth.
Your comment will be visible after approval.
Ruben Abati never did anything good for Jonathan. He failed to capture the local media in favour of his principal. Goodluck failure came partly from the damage to him by the local media such as Sahara Reporters, Premium Times, The Nation Newspaper and the Channels TV. Abati and Clack should stop crying over spilt milk. The damage is done.

Baba you are right. Ababti stopped criticizing Jonathan after he was asked to come and chop and he eventually chopped.
Farida Waziri gave Reuben Abati a plot of land in Abuja or so. Abati return the land. Abati is a smart ass. Once you pay, he stops criticizing u.
We apr8 dis write up and its nice dat we r hearing dis frm him. Its well wit his soul and I wish him all d best.
Ok Mr Clark, is right for some of the statement he says here.
Hmmm
Latest Political news
The likes of Obasanjo and Ebun Clark are the fever that Nigeria has to deal with. They keep talking and talking. They should borrow a leaf from some our elder statesmen like Alex Ekwueme and other responsible elders. They should keep quiet and let Nigeria move forward.
I wonder who has not been blamed for Jonathan's failure. Jonathan has accepted defeat and moved on, this men should find a day job abeg.

And d drama continues.....Hehehehehe
The Ijaws have proven to the world that they are the most disunited ethnic stock.what GEJ is passing through could liken to a rich man who scripted his own death and observes people's reaction. If GEJ is given another chance to rule Nigeria I know he will correct most of the ills associated to his regime.
Enough already abeg
