JONATHAN UNDERRATED ME- Sen. Bola Tinubu

“Jonathan had the opportunity to turn things around when some of us offered him advice and were even ready to help him succeed but he turned us down. He actually underrated my political experience and might“, begins Tinubu
“At some point I was willing to help salvage him government the very bad situation his administration threw the country into but he shunned my advice and decided to see me as an opponent who did not mean well for him. today he has his fingers burnt and his mind full of regret. You don’t buy experience. He was not yet a politician when some of us were busy fighting the military through NADECO and other democratic platforms.


National Leader of the governing party the All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has revealed that former President Goodluck Jonathan lost the election because he belittled his political might and prowess. Tinubu made this disclosure during the inauguration of the new government of Muhammadu Buhari on Friday in Abuja.
Speaking to selected journalists, Tinubu said, “Jonathan failed to recognize the political experience of some powerful politicians including himself who tried to correct him (Jonathan) when things were going bad but he chose to maintain deaf ears and followed the advice of those who ran down his government.


 “His experience and situation should serve as a lesson to other politicians. You don’t throw away experience or buy it. You must always listen to people who have something to offer going by what they have seen or experienced. He belittled my advice and saw me as a threat. He underestimated my political strength. He has paid the prize in a rather bitter way. Jonathan is not a bad leader as an individual but when you surround yourself with people with little or no political experience you get what Jonathan got.”
