JONATHAN REMAINS COMMITTED TO CREDIBLE ELECTIONS – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday said it is impressed with President Goodluck Jonathan’s stand on ensuring credible elections in the country.
The PDP, in a statement by its national publicity secretary, Chief Olisa  Metuh, said it is proud of President Goodluck Jonathan’s stand on electoral transparency and credible polls at all  levels across the country. The party stressed that contrary to claims by the opposition, President Goodluck Jonathan has remained resolute in his commitment to free and fair elections as reflected in his mantra of ‘one man one vote’ noting that the drastic reduction in electoral disputes under President  Jonathan is a clear testimony in this regard.
 Lashing out at the APC for not imbibing the spirit of sportsmanship when it is defeated as demonstrated by the PDP on many occasions, the PDP said President Jonathan has remained open and objective on election issues adding that “it is on record that the President has always congratulated candidates who won in free and fair elections irrespective of the parties they belong.”
The PDP told the opposition to “wake up to the reality of its rejection by the people and look elsewhere to cast its lame vituperations.”
