When former President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan
called President Muhammadu Buhari after the 2015
presidential election to concede defeat, many applauded
him as a gentleman who has the interest of the country
at heart. Many went as far as calling him the hero of
our time. So were his many friends in the
entertainment industry. But it seems singer and
actress, Adokiye would remember the leader for a
different reason.
“ I feel really
bad for the
Nigerians
calling
President
Jonathan a
hero. Hero to
who please?”
she asked
disdainfully. “
Why waste
your saliva and
brain on
someone who
has brought
poverty,
national
blackout, danger, unemployment, terror and insecurity
to our dear nation” she said.
“Don’t get me wrong, he was my president before now.
His wife is even from my mum’s village, Ogu Bolo in
Okrika and I know her home. So, they are my people.
But my dear, he disappointed me. Someone that has
seen poverty before but was blessed by God to change
mankind. What did he do?
He
forgot us and started forming ‘big man’ for Nigerians. I
bet he thought the world was his. Thank God for his
mercy for not allowing him to come back to complete his
mission of doom” she declared.
She also took on those who worked under the former
president in he chat with Showtime, saying they did not
work in the interest of the masses.
“They were all heartless people. People that could not
feel the pains of the poor who put them there to serve
then. If anybody by now is still calling Jonathan a hero
that person should be checked” she added.
Adokiye spoke
with Showtime on Monday at the height of the fuel
crisis across the nation.
