Former President Dr. Goodluck Jonathan said the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole is suffering from multiple personality syndrome.

Jonathan who described as misleading Oshiomhole’s allegation on national television that vote buying in Nigerian started when he was president, said it is disingenuous for anybody to link the former President with the incidence of vote buying.

Jonathan in a statement by his media adviser, Ikechukwu Eze, said voting buying in Nigeria started in Edo State gubernatorial election in 2016, a year after Jonathan his left office.

It noted that while in office between 2010 and 2015, the former president conducted many elections adjudged as free and fair by both national and international observers.

According to the statement, there was no incident of vote buying in the two general elections conducted by Jonathan in 2011 and 2015, and off-season gubernatorial and parliamentary elections in Anambra, Ekiti, Ondo and Edo States.

“It is instructive that in each case, the former president was given a clean bill, with both local and international observers commending him for having supervised a credible and transparent process.

”In November 2017, a United Nations delegation led by Ambassador Mohamed Ibn Chambas, the Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for West Africa and the Sahel, and Chairman of the Cameroon-Nigeria Mixed Commission (CNMC) commended former President Jonathan for the positive outcome of the electoral reforms he initiated during his tenure, and prayed that the institutions he built and the high standards he set in organizing credible and peaceful elections are maintained and sustained by his successors.

“It is instructive that Jonathan also received plaudits from the visiting UN team over his conduct of the same 2015 elections which Oshiomhole had casually singled out for condemnation,” the statement added.

Jonathan recalled that Oshiomhole himself praised him for conducting credible election in 2012 that re-elected him as Edo State government, and wonder how he could turn around to blame his for vote buying.

He noted that the former Edo State governor is suffering from multiple personality syndrome, recalling how praised Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso only to denounce them the next day.

The former president said it appeared that Mr. Oshiomhole psychological strain, as he is in feud with everybody, including of his party.

According to Jonathan, Oshiomhole’s false accusations might have stem from his own guilty conscience arising from the unenviable behaviour he exhibited during the September 2016 gubernatorial election in Edo State.

“After observing the Edo 2016 gubernatorial election, the Transition Monitoring Group (TMG) a coalition of over 400 civil society organizations spread across the country, said ‘the most frequent reported incidents (of electoral irregularities) are vote buying/voter bribery.’

“The trend was later to spread to Ondo, Anambra and Ekiti States governorship elections, all taking place after Jonathan had left office as President.

“What also changed was that Oshiomhole’s emergence as the national chairman of APC and the burden of ‘delivering results to his party’, has pushed him into exporting and escalating this vote buying dexterity to other states, as recently witnessed in Ekiti governorship poll.

“The fact is that inducement as a tool in the hands of politicians is an old malaise that no Nigerian can be proud of.

“It is bad enough that this has been allowed to fester and morph into the ugly trend that is today called vote buying.

“Given this circumstance, you would expect a statesman of Oshiomhole’s standing to offer perspectives on how to solve this problem that is already making our country an object of scorn in the eyes of the international community.

“That Oshiomhole only resorted to blame game rather than offer any useful suggestions to the election management bodies on how to solve this shameful problem, in the cited television interview, is a sad commentary on the quality and character of today’s political leaders.

“A government that continues to blame its predecessor rather than show its scorecard, less than one year to the end of its four-year tenure, is only giving the impression that it is already at its wit’s end.

“We believe that it is high time Mr. Oshiomhole began to put a leash on his unhelpful, ill-conceived comments and tumultuous style of leadership, to enable him offer quality service to the party he currently leads,” Jonathan added.

Everyone should calm down.

Adams Oshiomole should walk back his style of leadership and start showing a little bit of class. I know you can go to school,and still come out,without imbibing that professional decorum of treating others with respect.

But he should try some. Adams Oshiomole should stop acting like a market woman,and instead act like someone befitting to be the Chairman of a great party like the APC.

Then as regards Goodluck Jonathan. There are some things that are beneath a person or the position you held before. You are the former President of Nigeria,and it is not everything written or spoken about you,that you should reply to.

All political parties buy votes. It did not start in 1999. And even if no evidence is provided, It is good politics to accuse the opposition of buying votes. So why is this accusation hurting Goodluck Jonathan?

Anyway. President Goodluck Jonathan, I still consider you the most clueless man that has ever ruled Nigeria, if that will make you feel any better.

GEJ, please stop replying these aimless people, we have all seen the truth!

Adams is a mad man.. Stupidity is usually harmless. Power and stupidity together are dangerous.

Let's for the sake of argument agree to your sweeping generalisations and unfounded assertions that GEJ and PDP spent all that money you accuse them of spending for elections. Surely you as old as you are should know there's a difference between payment for the of influential persons in a region or state during campaigns to help sway public opinion in favour of GEJ or PDP....which is distinct from 'vote and show to collect your four thousand naira' the incidence of which has been rampant and been on the rise DURING ACTUAL VOTING ever since APC got desperate to 'win' elections come hell or high water....by fire or by force!?
