I would if I were in his place, so I don't understand why the media is fascinated by the obvious. The question should be, will he win? It’s obvious GEJ is running for president.

If Jonathan was serious about making change he would have started the power project as soon as he came into power; he was indeed the Vice President and not a stranger to the concerns of the people. I am not concerned with the $150m purchase, but does he really need 3 new planes. Can't he just buy one new one, repair the others and use the balance of the funds on improving a hospital, university or something visible in the country. Our leaders have taken us for granted!
