The oath of office of President is enshrined in the Seventh schedule
of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (of 1999 as
amended). This oath of office is solemn and inviolable and ought to
guide the holder of the office of the President of the Federal Republic
of Nigeria as the most important commandment of political leadership.

More than a year after he took the oath of office, the current president, Good luck Jonathan has all but failed woefully to fulfill the constitutional provisions that importantly obliges him to safeguard the lives and property of Nigerians. Section 14(2) (b) provides specifically that "the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government". *7%@# But since assuming office, President Jonathan has presided over an administration that is largely seen as weak, clueless and ineffective in the area of ensuring security of lives and property of the citizenry.*7%@#
Well armed terrorists have waged terror-related violence in most parts of the North and have made governance in the North Eastern states of Yobe and Borno virtually impossible. The activities of the armed Islamic insurgency known as Boko Haram has almost led to the collapse of the economy of the North East. In all of these murderous attacks, the federal government and specifically, President Jonathan is yet to show effective leadership in ensuring that the real sponsors responsible for these dastardly attacks on state institutions, churches and even innocent civilians including government officials are brought to justice. The best description for the inability of the presidency to contain these mass killings is to say that the federal government is in a state of "organized confusion" over the unprecedented rise in terrorism.*7%@#
Report any suspicious act to the nearest police or any security body.
