President Goodluck Jonathan and his ruling Peoples’
Democratic Party, PDP, on Thursday officially opened their
campaign towards next month’s presidential and
governorship elections in Lagos, with a vow to emerge
victorious at the polls.
The president and all PDP state governors made the
declaration at the Tafawa Balewa Square.
In his opening remarks, Ahmadu Ali, the Director of the
Jonathan-Sambo Campaign Organisation, said that the
PDP, unlike the opposition All Progressives Congress, APC,
belongs to all Nigerians.
“The PDP is not the exclusive preserve of an individual who
has turned Lagos into a cow to be milked,” said Mr. Ali.
Tunji Shelle, Chairman, Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP),
Lagos State, on Thursday said the impressive turnout at the
party’s rally in Lagos indicated support for the re-election of
President Goodluck Jonathan.
Mr. Shelle was quoted by the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN,
as saying that the transformation agenda of the Jonathan
administration should be allowed to continue.
“President Jonathan, despite security challenges being
faced by the nation, has performed well in all sectors of the
Nigerian economy.
“The crowd here today is not just party members but
Nigerians who believe that Jonathan, his team and the PDP
have done well and will do better,” he said.
The party later presented its flags to the governorship
candidates of the respective states.
