Jonathan's god-father, E.K Clark, has been abandoned in Abuja

Soon after President Olusegun Obasanjo made Goodluck Jonathan what he became between 2007 till date, he was hijacked by Ijaws as a regional president and they made sure he had no time for OBJ.

Now, the loss of last month’s presidential re-election effort by Jonathan has continued to rubbish most of those who had hijacked him, including the desertion of the once bubbling Abuja residence of his god-father, Chief Edwin Clark, located in the expensive Asokoro district of the FCT, Abuja.

The home once had a security force of about 12 soldiers, civil defence officers and the police...

In the past, politicians who were looking for appointments or favours of the now-humbled PDP, thronged the place to seek the approval of the self-appointed leader of the Ijaw tribe.

Apart from soliciting favours, some of the politicians visited Clark to report those they considered to be moles within the Presidency and the PDP at both national and state levels to him in the hope he could use such information to their benefit.

However, since the President’s defeat by General Muhammad Buhari of the APC, the politicians have all disappeared from the presence of the once influential man.

When visited on Sunday, the house has become a ghost of its past. Most security men have been recalled by their bosses, who have concluded that with Jonathan’s defeat, there is no need to attach them to a political hanger-on who should never have had them in the first place.

Clark is presently in London where he is hoping to recover from the shock of Jonathan's defeat by Buhari. He had sworn many times that Jonathan would be re-elected.
