No Administration Has Done Better Than Mine- Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan has
challenged his critics to compare the
achievement of his administration with
any other before they criticise saying
that his administration has in two years
and eight months performed better than
any administration past and present in
the country.
The president, who was addressing People's
Democratic Party (PDP) stalwarts from the
north western zone of Nigeria who were in the
Presidential Villa on a solidarity visit, said that
it is blackmail for anyone to say that he is anti-
north, insisting that he was the first to
establish nine universities in the north at one
time as well as the Almajiri schools to
emancipate people from the shackles of
poverty.
He decried the challenges of insecurity in the
north promising that he will do more for them
by the time he gets rid of insurgency in that
part of the country.
Channels Television's State House
Correspondent, Chukwuma Onuekwusi reports
that the president called on the ministers of
state for works, education, mines, agriculture
and power to give a bit of their scorecard one
by one in the north western zone in line with
the transformation agenda of the
administration..
A former chairman of the PDP and leader of
the delegation, Dr Alero Mohammed reeled
out the efforts of the administration and
promised to support the president at all times.
He also reports that the president called on
them to see the amalgamation which brought
Nigerians together as a source of unity
promising to use the national dialogue to
cement the bond.
Meanwhile, some of the politicians in the
delegation said the visit was an eye opener to
what the Jonathan administration has been
doing since its inception.
Speaking to State House Correspondents after
the meeting Mr Mohammed Abacha, the son
of late Head of State, General Sanni Abacha,
described what is happening in the northern
part of the country as unfortunate, calling on
those who critcise the administration to be
careful because it might be their turn and they
will be the ones to be criticised.
On his part, Senator Hamisu Musa said it is
unfortunate that many Nigerians feign
ignorance of the transformation agenda. He
likened what is happening in the political
space as a gang up against the administration
that is doing well.
