Like Yahoo Boys, Nigerian leaders, lawmakers, judges contribute to country’s bad global image: Jonathan
Mr Jonathan said the actions of all arms of government contribute to the value of Nigeria’s passport.
Mr Jonathan made this statement at the annual colloquium organised by the Haske Satumari Foundation in Abuja on Saturday, where he spoke on “Promoting social change and development through diversity, equity and inclusion.”
The former president accused the executive, legislature and judiciary of the lingering crisis in Rivers State, saying, “I always plead with our people that whatever we do affects everybody, and sometimes we do things, and we think that it doesn’t affect us.”
Mr Jonathan said the actions of all arms of government contribute to the value of Nigeria’s passport and the kind of treatment citizens get outside the country.
“Why is it that our passport is not valued that much? Why is it that Nigerians are not given the kind of treatment we’re supposed to receive at international airports?” Mr Jonathan queried.
“Sometimes, we think it’s because of ‘Yahoo Boys’ or 419. Not only them; yes, they are part of the problem,” the politician said. “But whatever happens in the country, decisions that are taken by the executive arm of government, decisions that are taken by the parliament and judicial decisions affect everybody.”
Mr Jonathan further said, “For example, no businessman can bring his money to invest in a country where the judiciary is compromised, where government functionaries can dictate to judges what judgment they will give.
“No man brings his money to invest in that economy because we are taking a big risk. So whatever we do affects everybody, and if we want to build a nation where children and grandchildren will live, no matter how painful it is, we must strive to do what is right.”
Mr Jonathan’s statement comes amid lingering reputational damage from President Bola Tinubu’s sordid antecedent and sexual harassment allegation against Senate President Godswill Akpabio by Kogi lawmaker Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, who have continued to speak on international news platforms about her ordeal.
In January, Peoples Gazette reported how Mr Tinubu has hired lobbyists in the United States to help convince lawmakers and policymakers that he carries acceptable personal probity to lead Nigeria after suffering a reputational hit that followed reports of his involvement in illicit drug peddling and certificate fraud.Like Yahoo Boys, Nigerian leaders, lawmakers, judges contribute to country’s bad global image: Jonathan Mr Jonathan said the actions of all arms of government contribute to the value of Nigeria’s passport.

"My wife went to the market to buy one or two things and left my 4 months old baby to the 22 years old house help.
The little baby started crying, the house girl has done everything to make him stop crying , but the boy kept crying, so the girl now brought out her bre@st to breastfeed the baby, and immediately the bre@st entered his mouth he stopped crying.
As the small boy was sucking the breast, I entered and saw it, I was so angry and afraid that he could contact disease from there. I shouted on the girl, but she told me that nothing was coming out of the bre@st but I didn't believe her, she asked me to test it and I decided to suck the bre@st too to confirm. As I was sucking her bre@st, my wife came in.
Upon all my explanations she refused to understand and it's now a big problem. What can I do to convince her it was an innocent sucking?
What can I do Now? Your Advise is needed Pls because there is fire on the mountain now."My wife went to the market to buy one or two things and left my 4 months old baby to the 22 years old house help.
