Political blogger, Japheth Omojuwa recently conducted a series of polls where Nigerians were asked to rate GEJ’s performance in the office so far….
These polls were inspired by some
other poll saying over 50 percent of Nigerians approve of the
President’s work. That didn’t readily reflect the reality on the streets
of Nigeria. That prompted a need to carry out an open online poll. This
involved no mathematics or calibrations, just the direct result of how
people voted based on whether they think the President is doing well
enough or not. Like most conventional polls, we polled 1000 respondents.
We didn’t decide who to poll, respondents were at liberty to vote based
on their interest in the question. The results are attached below.

Of the 1004 people who answered the
question of the poll, 51 people (representing 5% of the sample) said
they couldn’t tell if the President was doing a great job, while 114
voters (11%) answered in the affirmative. An overwhelming 839 voters
voted ‘No’ representing 84% of the sample. The poll ran in April of
2014.

This is nothing close to perfect but it
does represent the views of some 1004 Nigerians who cared enough to
answer the question. There is a new poll on the right hand side of this page if you are reading on a non-mobile platform or below this page if
you are reading on a mobile platform. Like we did with the polls we
didn’t agree with, if you don’t agree with this result, you can conduct a
new poll. Just be kind enough to make it as open as we made this. Thank
you for taking part in the #OmojuwaPolls
