PDP Governors Vow Not To Lose State Elections

Godswill Akpabio
Governors on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP on Wednesday Promised not to lose their states to the opposition. 

PUNCH reports that the Governors made the promise during a solidarity visit to President Goodluck Jonathan. Speaking on behalf of the Governors, Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom said, ''We, as governors, came to assure him (the President) that we are going back as field commanders to hold our states and that come April 11, the PDP will still maintain its lead across Nigeria.

''Everybody knows that the only party that is national in nature and is on ground is the PDP. So we are not going to be undaunted by what has happened.

''The party has already indicated that it will explore all legal means in order to ensure redress. So, we are also proud of the party and we want to congratulate all our voters and all PDP faithful across Nigeria for their peaceful disposition. This is the only party that has not carried stick to break somebody’s windscreen after election. Because of the sacrificial stand of the President, our faithfuls are not on the streets, breaking APC windscreens and vehicles.

''If it were to be the other way round, you know what would have happened today. This is where Nigerians must judge: we want peace, stability and unity''.
