Jonathan will not contest 2019 presidential election – PDP


hehehehe........The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, South-South league, has said former President Goodluck Jonathan would not contest the 2019 presidential election.
The group said this while dismissing claims that Jonathan wanted to hijack the party structure in Bayelsa state for his presidential ambition in 2019.

In a statement by its Chairman, Barr. Ariolu Tebidapa (Delta State) and the Secretary, Akpan Ibibio (Akwa-Ibom state), the body claimed that those against the interest of the party were behind the allegation.
Noting that the PDP had zoned its presidency to the North, the body warned against any attempt to ridicule the image of the immediate past president.
The body maintained that if Jonathan was interested in anything, it was how to reposition PDP at the national level to “push forward his vision for Nigeria.”
The statement reads, “It is obvious, that since after the supreme court judgement that laid to rest the leadership crisis that rocked the PDP, some persons within the party in the region, are still not settled due to the role they played, in spite of the fact that the party has granted amnesty to all those who worked against the interest of the party.
