Official statement by president Jonathan after the announcement of the results of presidential election

Fellow Nigerians,
I thank you all for turning out en-masse for the March 28 General Elections.
I promised the country free and fair elections. I have kept my word. I have also expanded the space for Nigerians to participate in the democratic process. That is one legacy I will like to see endure.
Although some people have expressed mixed feelings about the results announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), I urge those who may feel aggrieved to follow due process based on our constitution and our electoral laws, in seeking redress.

As I have always affirmed, nobody’s ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian. The unity, stability and progress of our dear country is more important than anything else.

I congratulate all Nigerians for successfully going through the process of the March 28th General Elections with the commendable enthusiasm and commitment that was demonstrated nationwide.

I also commend the Security Services for their role in ensuring that the elections were mostly peaceful and violence-free.

To my colleagues in the PDP, I thank you for your support. Today, the PDP should be celebrating rather than mourning. We have established a legacy of democratic freedom, transparency, economic growth and free and fair elections.

For the past 16 years, we have steered the country away from ethnic and regional politics. We created a Pan-Nigerian political party and brought home to our people the realities of economic development and social transformation.

Through patriotism and diligence, we have built the biggest and most patriotic party in Nigerian history. We must stand together as a party and look to the future with renewed optimism.

I thank all Nigerians once again for the great opportunity I was given to lead this country and assure you that I will continue to do my best at the helm of national affairs until the end of my tenure.

I have conveyed my personal best wishes to General Muhammadu Buhari.

May God Almighty continue to bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

I thank you all.

Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR
President,
Federal Republic of Nigeria
March 31, 2015

I am a Buharist. A resolute one!

BUT I give kudos to GEJ for taking the honorable path. It is a tough decision to make despite the evil people surrounding him.

Despite the fact that Jonathan was a failure as a president, he will go down in the history books as an honorable man.

He has now avoided ICC by the skin of his teeth.

God bless Jonathan

God bless the new President (Buhari) - we will be watching you and remove you if you mess up!

That's fantastic from my Outgoing President, you have really demonstrated maturity just like Fayemi did last year. I wish you a safe trip to Otueke. God bless you sir!

Sai Buhari!!

Your legacy will never be forgotten. Well done President Goodluck Jonathan. President of federal Republic of Nigeria. 2010-2015.

Good

I kind of feel for him now.. chai

nice one

this is an example African leaders should follow....
a ruling president unseated and then this message. Great example. I wish he had ruled with authority. He would have stamped out the bad eggs that marred his tenure. His wife inclusive.

like if you think patience would have crashed her computer during a toefl test.

Thank you Mr. President. It's all jubilation where I am, didn't know APC had these number of fans in my South South state.

Sai Buhari

This is an emotional moment.
Oh Jona! Chai! (where is my handkerchief?)

In spite of your flaws, you can leave with your head high because you gave Nigerians what they wanted. You made them believe in the electoral process once again.

General Muhammad Buhari rtd. Ruled between
1983 and 1985 after seized power in a coup.
Ousted himself in another military take led by
General Ibrahim Babangida. General Muhammad
Buhari he declared himself a convert to
democracy and since run and lost in several
previous elections due to currupt government
rigging

when Late General Sanni Abacha died in june 1998 everyone was happy and dancing. Now that we have a new President elect in 2015, people are also happy and dancing. And most interesting part is that we are using 1998 calendar.
NIGERIANS want happiness
