Dr. Goodluck Jonathan is the Best President - Ralph Nwadike (Filmmaker)

As Nigeria goes through her rebirth, leadership at the Federal level continues receiving bashing and tackles, and sometimes accolades from all angles; with the opposition mostly highlighting the negatives, and a disillusionment created and acted by bad actors. Fear, confusion and uncertainty gripping citizens and the dream for nationhood glaringly promoting dishonesty, showcasing an infinitesimal trust and belief in the new Nigeria concept.  

Some of us have continued to approach the various new angles from the filmmakers' point of view.

Some of us have cast President Jonathan as our protagonist in the wonderful story of a new Nigeria. A story of an incredible group of people challenged on earth like non-other. Challenged like in the old! An epic narrative, epochal and modern, a people focused and determined, resiliently resolute, led by an unassuming character, called Goodluck Ebele Jonathan; a fisherman's son who became president and commander-in-chief of this most populous black nation on earth.

Masters of the new narrative, coming from Nollywood, making new arguments and calling criminals by their names and their atrocities. It is no longer news Nollywood is made in Nigeria. What is news is that they have become agents of positive change in Africa.

Ralph Nwadike is one of those great minds, a member of crew in the struggle, a master in the new narratives from Nollywood and he admonishes the following: "It's about time President Goodluck Jonathan stopped listening to those men and women who parades themselves as elders. All knowing , all powerful and begin to listen to God, and just like our Chibok girls were kidnapped by Boko Haram, King David's wives were kidnapped by the Amalekites who had invaded the South and Ziklag, smitten it and burned it with fire."

Nwadike is one of the founding fathers of Nollywood, a senior colleague of mine whom I hold in high-esteem. I couldn't help but agree with the angles he directs. Like in filmmaking, the good director is usually in charge.

President Jonathan

This is my colleagues narrative on his #Facebook status:"They did not only take away the wives, they also killed many sons and daughters of those cities, leaving a lot of destruction. And just as the people whose cities and villages have been destroyed in Nigeria by Boko Haram, there was a lot of wailing in those cities, and they cried, and cried. And like in this time of anomy, the people cursed David, and others spoke of stoning him; but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God. At this time, many have cursed out Jonathan, calling him names, and other un-imaginable and unprintable words. And that time, King David was the best King the world will come to know and appreciate in the making. President Goodluck Jonathan is the best President Nigerians will come to know and appreciate in the making. I believe at this time, President Jonathan must have sought the face of the Lord, and l will urge him to follow Davids step in 1 Samuel 30:8 (And David inquired at the Lord, saying, shall l pursue after this troop? (Boko Haram) shall l overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all. Today, God has delivered his enemies in his hand, so Mr President, go pursue and recover, and at the end of the day, Nigerians will say "YES", to Goodluck!"

I think the president should consider this as a new angle in the Transformation of Nigeria. I congratulate #Nollywood filmmaker, Mr. Ralph Nwadike for this new vista in the #NigeriaRebirth struggle! #OurDreamNigeriaIsPossible! Di.
