Professor Tam David-West, former Minister of
Petroleum Resources, has called on President Goodluck Jonathan to start
preparing his hand-over note because his days in office as president of Nigeria
are numbered.
The
reason, according to David-West, is because Jonathan’s party, the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) will suffer a humiliating defeat in the hands of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming general elections.
“Jonathan
should quickly look for shoes and go back to Otuoke. I have shoes in Ibadan and
Abuja, I can give him some if he is in need of shoes.
“Everywhere
you go, you see signs that the end of this government, led by Jonathan, is very
near. Honestly, I do not have anything against him, but a party and a man that
can better manage Nigeria has appeared on the scene, and we have no choice but
to save our country from an impending doom.”
The
elder statesman and Professor of Virology said Nigerians cannot continue to
tolerate a government that is evidently confused and incapable of providing
leadership. He warned that the drift in almost every sphere of our national
life will continue if Jonathan is not shown the way out because, according to
him, the president lacks the capacity to lead.
David-West
also called on President Jonathan to show Nigerians his doctoral thesis, and
end the ragging controversy around his certificate. “I became a professor in
1974, so when I see a scholar I know. I have asked people to look for the PhD
of Jonathan but I am yet to find it. I think he owes Nigerians an explanation
because he is our president, Professor David-West said.
