So, It's Goodbye, Good Luck Jonathan.

The hands on the reins of power in Nigeria have changed democratically. Can this be considered anything other than a very good thing?

[lindapalmara]

As long as this lot aren't as corrupt as the last. Don't hold your breath!

A Muslim ex army general in charge of a wealthy Africa country.

What could possibly go wrong?

[icecreamicecream]

Does goodluck in Nigerian translate into English as useless,incompetent ***?

[icecreamicecream]

****??-t-w-a-t.

Why isn't he wearing a uniform ( general ), bet he does when civil war breaks out.

Give it a couple of years and Goodluck(sic) and this new gadgie will both be sharing a tent on the outskirts of Calais.

[janbee]

Douglas... my sentiments exactly.

[janbee]

Maybe in May, we can say Goodbye to Whoop-di-do Dave and Numpty Nicky. Get those removal vans ordered lads.

[sandyRoe]

Ice cream, having sticky fingers is thought to be quite normal for the powerful in Nigeria. If Good luck ever sees the inside of a tent it will be at some posh society do in the home counties.

[janbee]

True, very true Sandy

[Brinjal]

At least Goodluck was content with his previous Goodluck and the fortune he has amassed and conceded defeat . Not like the kleptocracy that we have here.

[lady-janine]

don't count on that brinjal.

Not much point they will most likely call a lightening strike as soon as the Labour Party get in power.

[sandyRoe]

AOG, there would be a special dispensation to enable Cameron's bits and pieces to be taken out the back door of number 10.

[ichkeria]

Kleptocracy?
You have to laugh

[douglas9401]

A lightening strike eh? Fed up with dark oppression?

[New Judge]

I'm not too fussed who runs Nigeria (or, for that matter, any other African nation). Virtually all of them are a complete shambles and a change of leadership will not alter that.

But I will miss the chuckles I have whenever I hear "Goodluck Jonathan" mentioned on the news. His parents were obviously entertainers.

[mazie]

I'm with the Judge... going to miss his name and the chuckles

[sandyRoe]

I still remember with some fondness Canaan Banana and Indabiingi Sithole

[icecreamicecream]

I wonder why all the countries (or most of them) who used to be British colonies in Asia such as Singapore or Hong Kong went from strength to strength,yet our fomer colonies in Africa have reverted back to the defecfory orifices they were before colonisation?
