Hosanna
today crucifying him tomorrow!!! Unfortunately, that's how lots of people are. During
his Thanksgiving farewell service yesterday in Abuja, President Jonathan, told his audience that he's been abandoned by
people who he once considered friends. According to him;
"As long as I live, I will continue to do my best for the state because it has helped me as a person. I have to thank Nigerians especially my state for giving me the opportunity to serve as deputy governor, governor and the whole country gave me the opportunity to serve as Vice President and then President, first was to complete the tenure of the late President Umaru Yar’Adua and later serve as President from which I am exiting now as a very happy and fulfilled man”.

"When I look at the
whole picture of my life up to when I became the President of this country, and
I say that if soldiers and police officers that have not received 0. 5 per cent
of the benefits that I have received from the state can lay their lives for
this country, I should do anything in the interest of Nigeria including paying
the supreme price."
Jonathan
said he wasn't surprised that friends and associates have abandoned him, since
losing the election and he expects worst things to happen in future. He said
those that benefited most from his government were same people crucifying him
today but he wasn't phased by it.
“To my ministers, I wish you what I wish myself. They will have hard times, we will all have hard times. Our ways will be rough.”

But we are happy the
ordinary people appreciate what we did and that is the most important. It’s not
what the elite or the privileged few talk or say about you but what the
majority of the Nigerian public think about your actions and inactions that
matter.
“Like the Primate said,
we came to Abuja peacefully and we are returning peacefully. “I thank the
church and Nigerians because they stood by us at our most difficult times.
