I’m considering whether to Seek Re-election or Not ––Jonathan


President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday harped on the platform provided by the Eid-El-Kabir celebration to inform Nigerians of certain considerations he had been grappling with before yielding to calls by some Nigerians to either contest the 2015 presidential election or withdraw for National interest.
He thanked “the many individuals, stakeholders, groups, associations, non-governmental organizations, unions and political leaders from across the country” who, according to him “have, in recognition and appreciation of our efforts and commitment to repositioning our dear nation for more rapid growth and development, urged me to seek a second term in office.”
He however added that: “In deciding on an appropriate response to such calls, I will place the greater interests of national harmony, cohesion, unity, security, political stability, progress, equity, justice and fairness above any personal ambition or sectional agenda.”
