Jonathan •says, ‘PDP Can’t Lose Any State If I Manipulate Election’ by Nobody: 9:18am On Aug 12, 2014 |
PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan, on Monday, said those predicting and prophesying doom for the country on the basis of the 2015 general election would be disappointed. Jonathan stated this at an interfaith conference organised by the Interfaith Initiative for Peace, with the theme: “The Imperative of Interfaith Understanding and Cooperation for Responsible Politics,” in Abuja. He reminded them of the killings and destruction that greeted the 2011 elections, including the killing of 10 youth corps members in Bauchi, and vowed never to let it happen again. According to him, the defeat of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in some of the polls showed that he was not using state security apparatus to manipulate elections in favour of his party as alleged by the opposition. “My promise of free and fair election is clear. All governorship elections that have been conducted so far, you can agree with me that they have been free and fair. “I am from the PDP, the ruling party, but I don’t use that strength to make sure that PDP must win by all means. “PDP has lost elections in Edo State; we lost in Anambra State, we lost election in Ondo State, of course only two days back, we lost in Osun, but we know and we are saying that this country must change. According to him, if he had been manipulating elections in the country, PDP would not have lost the series of governorship elections it lost recently. Source : Tribune . 1 Like |

I wonder what is wrong with his statement...someone is trying to make you understand that the deployment of troops during elections is not to rig in favour of his party neither to favour the oppositions, pointing the fact that his party has lost elections where troops were deployed. 31 Likes |

What has the president said here that is warranting this insults? Let us be sincere here, anyone attacking the president on this should ask himself this: would there be a free and fair election if Tinubu was at the helm of affairs in this nation? Can Tinubu be in power and not rig the election? Anybody attacking this statement is either an APC apologist,not being truthful to himself or is just a slowpoke. 30 Likes |

Credit must be given to Jonathan for the heavy presence of security during election.I want to believe their presence have not been used to better PDP rather the people opted for the opposition. Having said this,I want Jonathan to continue in this manner and to further channel this same energy to the Northeast that have been troubled by bokobastards. My only grudge is why would the Security cover their faces during election?This facial covering is not only intimidating but totally unacceptable.I want to believe there are reasons for this. So far so good,Jonathan has done well in terms of providing enough security during election. 6 Likes |

prophetone: Is this guy too daft to fire his speech-writer? Why would a president even mention election rigging like it's an option open to him. Some things even when true, should not be said. I don't understand you guys. The APC and its hungry apologists have been vociferous in their condemnation of the security measures put in place to maintain law and order in the recently concluded elections in Edo, Ekiti, and Osun. They alleged that the heavy military presence was meant to help the PDP win unfairly. Now, the president has negated this allegation by citing the PDP's loss in Osun and Edo as evidence that he is not interested in using our security forces to favour his party. He also pointed out, rightly so, that if he had indeed used the security forces to rig the elections, the PDP would not have lost. How exactly is this an unreasonable thing to say? 20 Likes |

In other words, the president just told the world that our electoral system is fatally flawed and can be manipulated by anyone who desires to do so!!! Question is, why don't you work towards making it very difficult for anyone to manipulate the system?? Wouldn't that be a lasting legacy that even your children and children's children would benefit from after you are long gone What happens in an event you leave the system rotten as it is and your successor decides to exploit the flaws to disenfranchise you and your people in the future Sometimes I really don't blame those who insult the president. His utterances give him off as someone who's very deficient upstairs!!! 3 Likes |
