President Goodluck Jonathan

The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation has said that President Goodluck Jonathans response to the challenge of failing Rivers State is both an admission of failure and a sign of what he would do if given another four years.

The APC campaign said this in a statement by the Director of Media and Publicity of the APCPCO, Mallam Garba Shehu, on Thursday.

The statement read, It is bewildering that President Jonathan could tender such a pedestrian excuse for not developing Rivers State because he doesnt want to be seen as a sectional leader.

If we must report the President by his own words, he said he didnt develop Rivers State because he wanted to avoid being accused of developing only his area of the Niger Delta.

Of course, we know that is a not the truth. The Presidents statement is false and totally insulting to the intelligence of Nigerians.

It further noted that Jonathans excuse was an acknowledgement of Governor Rotimi Amaechis consistent position that the President brought no development to Rivers State.

The APC presidential campaign threw a challenge at Jonathan to produce concrete evidence of other states that he had developed since he became president in 2010.

Meanwhile, the presidential candidate of the APC, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) has expressed confidence that Nigeria will move forward again.

Buhari said this in another statement by Shehu on Thursday.
