2015: Jonathan is Ready for APC Candidate —Presidency

Don't get it twisted, 2015 is looking us straight in the face and the politics has kicked off. Ahead of the 2015 presidential election, the Presidency has declared that President Goodluck Jonathan is set for a keen contest with whoever emerges as presidential candidates of other political parties, especially the APC.

Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Rufai Ahmed Alkali, speaking in Abuja, said:

"Looking critically at the turn of events in PDP, it is trite to conjecture that the Party, considering all critical elements, has succeeded in demonstrating strength, unity and determination to make the difference this time around while staving off untoward possibilities. 

“We should not forget that PDP having been in power since 1999 remains the most experienced, dependable, consistent and strongest with spread in all nooks and crannies of the country. 

“If it deploys such experience in putting its house in order so as to excel in the coming general election, the rest of Nigeria should rather applaud its approach and tactics in politics. Moreover, there has not been any complaint in any quarter from within on the good option the PDP had taken [to adopt Jonathan as its sole candidate].
