Some politicians are Jobless and Impostors: - president Jonathan.

 The president after church service today was responding to the sermon by the Anglican primate who accused politicians of being unforgiving. He said:-

“The chaplain accused us politicians that we do not forgive, or that some politicians don’t forgive. Apparently the Bible said this, but politicians are the people who forgive,” the president said.

“Politicians are those who forgive because in politics, whether local politics or national, you don’t have permanent friends or permanent enemies but permanent interests.

“If somebody is your enemy today and there is a change of interest and A becomes your friend, first of all, you have to forgive otherwise you cannot have a friend that you cannot work with.

“But politics is just like some kind of trade. More than 50 per cent of us who are into politics are not supposed to be politicians.

“For example, in the profession of nursing and teaching, people with wicked hearts and unforgiving spirit are not the kind of people who should be nurses or teachers, but we find them there.

“So, most of us who are in politics are not supposed to be there but because we have no other thing to do. So, if you see a politician than cannot forgive, he is an impostor,” the president said.
