GOODLUCK STILL IN PDP- MEDIA TEAM

Report claiming that the former President, Goodluck Jonathan has concluded plans to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress has been debunked by his media team.

Following the reported disagreement between the Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson and the former President, there have been speculations that Jonathan supported the candidate of APC, David Lyon in the November 16 governorship election and also celebrated his victory.

A former aide to the former President, Reno Omokri has however described the ex-President as a loyal party member.

Reno Omokri in a statement said, “Former President Goodluck Jonathan is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party. Throughout his sojourn on Earth, he has been a member of only one political party.”

“Dr Jonathan is known for his stability and loyalty. These are character traits that have been lifelong companions of his. He is also an elder statesman and that role requires that he accepts all Nigerian citizens, and indeed all the world’s peoples, in the spirit of the brotherhood of man”.

“As an elder statesman and Chairman of the Goodluck Jonathan Foundation, Dr Jonathan will receive people of goodwill who apply to pay him a courtesy visit, irrespective of their political or religious leanings. Though a Christian, he has received Muslim groups and other diverse visitors.”

It would be remembered that the relationship between the former president and Governor Dickson of Bayelsa State was not so smooth leading to the PDP losing the elections to the APC .
