In an interview with news magazine The interviewer, former governor of cross river state Nigeria Donald Duke opens up to what Jonathan told him and Obasanjo. According to him Jonathan was not ready to become the vice president of Nigeria. Excerpt from the interview below.
"You don’t give authority to an unwilling person, particularly in a country like Nigeria. Umaru never wanted to be president. He was dealing with his health issues and wanted to retire and go lecture in a university. He was really offered an appointment at the Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria. Jonathan, on the other hand, had just been re-elected to be governor of Bayelsa and when he was picked, he was not so pleased. He said to Obasanjo and me, ‘I don’t want this job".
So you can actually force some one to become the president? This is to tell you the level of control these guys have over us... There is God oh!
