President Jonathan Says Opposition Will Be Confused In 2015; APC Replies Him

President Goodluck Jonathan has said members of the All
Progressives Congress and other political parties will be “more
confused” in 2015 if they think they can wrest power from the
ruling PDP.
Speaking at the 62nd National Executive Committee meeting of the
PDP in Abuja on Thursday, Jonathan said any party or group that
believed that the PDP would be rocked by crises during the 2015
elections would be “terribly disappointed.”
But the APC, through its National Publicity Secretary, Lai
Mohammed, said President Jonathan would wake up one day and
realise that in politics, "there is a limit to good luck."
Jonathan had told the NEC members, who resolved to shelve
Saturday’s South-West congress of the party that the early
commencement of political activities was not unconnected with
opposition’s worry over the “intimidating credentials” of the PDP.
The President also attributed the formation of new political
parties to the quest by some desperate politicians to defeat the
PDP. He said those behind the parties are “confused and would
continue to be confused.”
He said that the turnout at the NEC meeting was a clear reflection
of the fact that the PDP was intact.
Jonathan said, “I was not expecting to see so many people
especially our senior party members but when I came in and saw
their faces, I thanked God because those who believe that the
PDP is divided, will all be disappointed.
“The chairman said it all; we thought that political activities will not
start so early in the country, but because of the intimidating
credentials of the PDP, people have started meeting. Parties have
started coming together, and new ones are being formed. These
are blessings to all of us because those people behind them are
confused about how they will manage the PDP. They will continue
to be confused especially in 2015.
“And those who continue to think that the PDP cannot come
together; that the PDP cannot manage success will be terribly
disappointed. We will go to the Eagle Square and take the right
decision for our party.”
Reacting to President claims
APC spokesman, Lai Mohammed urged him to devote his energies to
resolving the crisis in the PDP instead of concentrating on what is
happening in other political parties.
“Clearly, President Jonathan is still relying on luck to defeat the
opposition APC in 2015 and that is why he says we will be
confused and disappointed.
"On the contrary, the President will wake up one day to realise
that in this business, there is a limit to good luck. Not only has his
luck run out on President Goodluck Jonathan, he has exhausted his
good will with Nigerians.”
