You can't stampede Jonathan out of office -Presidency to APC
Category: Nigerian National NewsThe presidency has warned APC to stop trying to stampede Jonathan out of office.This is in response to accusations by the APC that , the president is busy making last minute appointments, instead of concentration on the smooth handover..
The Special Adviser to the President on Political Affairs, Prof. Rufai Alkali,said in a statement that, Jonathan will not be coerced, stampeded,or undermined, while exercising his responsibilities.He also said the president has the constitutional right to discharge his duties until May 29.On allegations president Jonathan was ruining the economy, he said
“The allegation is immature, reckless and out of tune with the President’s desire and patriotic commitment to a peaceful transfer of power.
“Nigerians will recall that shortly after the result of the presidential election was announced,President Goodluck Jonathan inaugurated a high-powered transition committee to plan and organise a hitch-free transition programme for the inauguration of the incoming administration.
“Surprisingly, it took the APC more than three weeks to wake up to its responsibility to constitute its own transition committee. How then can they turn round to accuse the government of frustrating the transition programme?”By the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, PresidentJonathan remains in office up to May 29, 2015 when he formally hands over to the incoming President.
“Governance is a serious business. With the sudden and unexpected concession of victory to them, it appears that the APC is beginning to face the full reality of managing the great challenges of a complex nation.”
