Pres Jonathan release statement after defeat

Official statement by president Jonathan after
the announcement of the results of
presidential election
Fellow Nigerians,
I thank you all for turning out en-masse for
the March 28 General Elections.
I promised the country free and fair elections. I
have kept my word. I have also expanded the
space for Nigerians to participate in the
democratic process. That is one legacy I will
like to see endure.
Although some people have expressed mixed
feelings about the results announced by the
Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC), I urge those who may feel aggrieved to
follow due process based on our constitution
and our electoral laws, in seeking redress.
As I have always affirmed, nobody’s ambition
is worth the blood of any Nigerian. The unity,
stability and progress of our dear country is
more important than anything else.
I congratulate all Nigerians for successfully
going through the process of the March 28th
General Elections with the commendable
enthusiasm and commitment that was
demonstrated nationwide.
I also commend the Security Services for their
role in ensuring that the elections were mostly
peaceful and violence-free.
To my colleagues in the PDP, I thank you for
your support. Today, the PDP should be
celebrating rather than mourning. We have
established a legacy of democratic freedom,
transparency, economic growth and free and
fair elections.
For the past 16 years, we have steered the
country away from ethnic and regional
politics. We created a Pan-Nigerian political
party and brought home to our people the
realities of economic development and social
transformation.
Through patriotism and diligence, we have
built the biggest and most patriotic party in
Nigerian history. We must stand together as a
party and look to the future with renewed
optimism.
I thank all Nigerians once again for the great
opportunity I was given to lead this country
and assure you that I will continue to do my
best at the helm of national affairs until the
end of my tenure.
I have conveyed my personal best wishes to
General Muhammadu Buhari.
May God Almighty continue to bless the
Federal Republic of Nigeria.
I thank you all.
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR
President,
Federal Republic of Nigeria
March 31, 2015
