Editor,
Ag. President Jonathan's hasty decision
The installation of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan as the acting President of Nigerian nation
remains appreciated by most Nigerians, including yours sincerely. Nevertheless, there are
some antagonists who are saying that the Senate made an uncoordinated decision; the
house could have arrived at the same decision by avoiding the loopholes now being
pointed out by some respected and responsible Nigerians.
Suffice it to say that the Senate waited to be reminded by a Letter to the Editor, which many
must have read published in the media recently entitled ‘Re: Yar’Adua’s Unfulfilled
Promises’ credited to one Dr. Akin Jamiu of Akilo Road, Ogba-Lagos in which he wrote in
part thus: “My appeal now to the Senate is that since it has heard the voice of President Yar’
Adua over the BBC, its members should take it that he has communicated to them, nay
Nigerians; they should waste no time in doing what the constitution expects of them, so that
Nigeria moves forward”. Why the Senate had to wait for persons like Dr. Akin Jamiu to
remind it of a ready reference before actualizing the needed action goes to show that its
members are not up to their responsibilities as the elected representatives of the people.
Nevertheless, my main point of writing this piece is not on the Senate but on the hasty way
the acting President conducted his minor cabinet reshuffle. He acted so fast; as if the
former Attorney-General and Minister for Justice, Michael Aondoakaa is the only official that
has committed urgent sin against him and the nation. He should be informed that he has
more deadly enemies; in his cabinet; in some former state governors; and in some serving
governors. He needs to shine his eyes and take urgent action against any subversion.
