President GEJ begged Nigerian to keep trusting pdp
President Goodluck Jonathan has appealed to
Nigerians to continue to trust the PDP in their
choice for elective offices.
Jonathan made the appeal at a rally
organised by the party's North Central Zone in
Minna on Saturday.
He added that PDP remained the only party
that was yet to change its slogan, logo or
name since its formation in 1998.
Jonathan urged Nigerians not to trust those
he said had dined and wined with the party
for the past 14 years, and had attained
various elected positions like governors,
senators and others only to turn around and
dump the party.
He described such people as chameleons who
should not be trusted.
"PDP is still the party for all Nigerians. It is
the party for the Nigerian students, it is party
for Nigerian youths, women, men and elders,"
he said.
He expressed optimism that the PDP would
win elections in Nasarawa and Kwara States
come 2015.
Jonathan stressed that the party would
ensure that the two states were recovered
from the grip of opposition party.
He added that the two states would be
reconstructed and restructured in line with the
vision and philosophy of PDP.
He also assured the party's supporters that it
would continue to remain in power in Niger,
Kogi and Benue, stressing that the PDP
remained the dominant party to beat in the
country.
Jonathan said the rally was not organised to
campaign for any elective office but to remind
the people of the zone to continue to support
the party.
In his remark, the National Chairman of PDP,
Alhaji Adamu Mu'azu, said the party had
brought about positive changes to Nigeria
and Nigerians in the past 14 years.
"We know PDP is Nigeria and Nigeria is PDP,"
he said.
The News Agency of Nigeria reports that
Senate President David Mark, Governors of
Bauchi, Plateau, Cross River, Akwa Ibom,
Gombe, Kogi, Taraba and Benue were among
those who attended the rally.
