Osun Governorship Election, A Very Painful Loss –– Jonathan
Ekiti magic could not work in Osun. President Goodluck Jonathan has said it is painful that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party lost the Saturday’s governorship election in Osun State to the All Progressives Congress.
This statement was made by Special Adviser to Jonathan on Political Affairs, Prof. Rufa’i Alkali, while he was conducting a facility tour on Goodluck-2-Goodluck (G2G) 2015 Project headquarters in Abuja.
In his words: “Today we would have celebrated Osun victory. It is however, a very painful day for us because the PDP candidate and the party had completed their home work and we know the people of Osun are tired of what is happening in the state, but here we are.
“I hope the APC, which is in the habit of complaining of having security agencies in ensuring enabling environment for election and is consistent in controversy and rejecting election results, will reject this Osun state gubernatorial election result.”
Speaking on the groups canvassing for the re-election of President Jonathan in 2015, the Special Adviser said “Since assumption of office, we inherited 3,000 Goodluck Support groups, some have been existing and some are new, and we felt it is only those that are serious, and that we know each and every one of them, in faces, not only on papers, know what they can do and how we can collaborate with them.
National coordinator of G2G and former governorship candidate of PDP in Edo state, Charles Airhiavbere has vowed that President Jonathan would return in 2015.
“Our target is 50 million volunteers to mobilise so as to ensure that President Jonathan wins in 2015,” he said
