Jonathan’s Reaction To Amaechi’s Challenge Is Admittance of Failure – APC Campaign

SAN FRANCISCO, January 29, (THEWILL) – The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCPCO) has described President Goodluck Jonathan’s response in Rivers State on Wednesday, to a challenge by Governor Rotimi Amaechi as an admittance of failure.

“What else more can be a signpost of failure if a president comes back after five years in office and cannot point a finger at a single project he has initiated in an entire state,” the Director of Media and Publicity of APCPCO, Mallam Garba Shehu, said in a statement on Thursday.

According to the statement, “It is bewildering that President Jonathan could tender such a pedestrian excuse for not developing Rivers State because he doesn’t want to be seen as a sectional leader.

“If we must report the president by his own words, he said he didn’t develop Rivers State because he wanted to avoid being accused of developing only his area of the Niger Delta.

“Of course, we know that is a not the truth. The president’s statement is false and totally insulting to the intelligence of Nigerians.”

The APC Presidential Campaign further explained that President Jonathan’s excuse was an acknowledgement of Amaechi’s consistent position accusing the president of bringing no development to Rivers State.

Expatiating on Jonathan’s pretext for not developing Rivers State to avoid being accused of favouring Niger Delta states, the APC Presidential Campaign also threw a challenge at President Jonathan to produce concrete evidence of other states that he has developed since he became president in 2010.

“The APCPCO wants to advise the PDP to come clean to admit the colossal failures of the Jonathan administration. We offer this advice because Jonathan’s government has lost the trust of Nigerians as a result of its incompetence and non-performance,” the statement said.
