Road To 2015 Won’t Be Smooth, PDP Govs Tell Jonathan by argon500(op): 4:39pm On Nov 11, 2014
Peoples Democratic Party governors on Tuesday told President Goodluck Jonathan that the road to 2015 would not be smooth for him and the party. However, they said they were of the opinion that the party will still win the presidential election and majority of the governorship seats in the country.

The Chairman, PDP Governors’ Forum and Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Chief Godswill Akpabio said this on behalf of his colleagues at President Jonathan’s presidential declaration at Eagles Square, Abuja on Tuesday. The governor, who is among the governors contesting for the position of senator, said that the ruling party will not handover to sponsors of terrorism.
While saying that he and other PDP governors were behind the President, Akpabio said, “We were robbed of three states, but the entry of Ekiti and Ondo States have increased our number. We may end up with about 30 states.
“But Mr. President, we know that the route to 2015 is not going to be very smooth but we are assuring you that at the end of the tunnel victory is yours as victory belongs to all of us and victory remains that of PDP.
“We will never be intimidated. You are like David in the Bible, you are fighting all the wars today so that future Presidents in Nigeria will have peace.
“We recognize that. You have taken the right step by building the Almajiri schools particularly in Northern Nigeria, you are building other schools in the South.
“You have decided to take education as a major step to educate Nigerian children so that they will not be misled in the future again.
“Never again will people mislead our children into terrorism; never again will our children succumb to insurgency. We are witnessing something that is totally un-Nigerian and we are saying do not be intimidated, we are behind you.
“Those who are behind you are more than those who are against you. In 2015 all Nigerians are going to tell you that we are behind you.”
He said that the opposition was fighting a lost battle, adding that there was no way the ruling party would handover the reigns of government to them.
He said that the opposition All Progressives Congress has no plan for the country, describing it as blackmailer and agent of destabilizer.
Akpabio added that opposition was fighting selfish war, stressing that the PDP would not be intimidated.
