<b>STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN AFTER THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE RESULTS OF PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION 2015</b><br />
<br />
<br />
Fellow Nigerians,<br />
<br />
I thank you all for turning out en-masse for the March 28 General Elections.<br />
<br />
I promised the country free and fair elections. I have kept my word. I have also expanded the space for Nigerians to participate in the democratic process. That is one legacy I will like to see endure.<br />
<br />
Although some people have expressed mixed feelings about the results announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), I urge those who may feel aggrieved to follow due process based on our constitution and our electoral laws, in seeking redress.<br />
<br />
As I have always affirmed, nobody’s ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian. The unity, stability and progress of our dear country is more important than anything else.<br />
<br />
I congratulate all Nigerians for successfully going through the process of the March 28th General Elections with the commendable enthusiasm and commitment that was demonstrated nationwide.<br />
<br />
I also commend the Security Services for their role in ensuring that the elections were mostly peaceful and violence-free.<br />
<br />
To my colleagues in the PDP, I thank you for your support. Today, the PDP should be celebrating rather than mourning. We have established a legacy of democratic freedom, transparency, economic growth and free and fair elections.<br />
<br />
For the past 16 years, we have steered the country away from ethnic and regional politics. We created a Pan-Nigerian political party and brought home to our people the realities of economic development and social transformation.<br />
<br />
Through patriotism and diligence, we have built the biggest and most patriotic party in Nigerian history. We must stand together as a party and look to the future with renewed optimism.<br />
<br />
I thank all Nigerians once again for the great opportunity I was given to lead this country and assure you that I will continue to do my best at the helm of national affairs until the end of my tenure.<br />
<br />
I have conveyed my personal best wishes to General Muhammadu Buhari.<br />
<br />
May God Almighty continue to bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.<br />
<br />
I thank you all.<br />
<br />

Nigeria's Election of Muhammadu Buhari is Truly Revolutionary | The Guardian

<br />
<b>The most valuable asset in politics is credibility. Politics is persuasion and “to be persuasive we must be believable; to be believable we must be credible” wrote the American journalist Edward R Murrow.</b><br />
<br />
Muhammadu Buhari has just been elected as the next president of Nigeria by a margin of more than 2m votes because on the issues that mattered to Nigerians, he had more credibility than his rival, current president Goodluck Jonathan.<br />
<br />
Corruption and insecurity dominated the agenda of Nigeria’s most competitive presidential election since its return to democracy in 1999. Pew Research has shown that 72% of Nigerians are concerned about Islamic extremism while more than eight in 10 feel that corruption (86%) and crime (88%) are “very big” problems.<br />
<br />
Buhari and Jonathan both vowed to tackle these issues, especially with regards to Boko Haram, the Islamist terrorist group that has killed more than 13,000 Nigerians and displaced 1.5 million.<br />
<br />
But Buhari, a 72-year-old retired general, enjoyed advantages on these fronts from the start. His record as Nigeria’s hard-headed military ruler from 1983 to 1985 lent credence to his promises to crush the Boko Haram insurgency. His reputation as an incorruptible politician who lives modestly rendered his pledges to tackle government graft believable.<br />
<br />
Jonathan, on the other hand, couldn’t escape the fact that Boko Haram had grown in strength during his five years as president, or that he had failed to react swiftly to the kidnap of 276 girls from Chibok, most of whom are still missing.<br />
<br />
Only six weeks ago, the Nigerian army, together with soldiers from neighbouring countries, launched robust operations to recapture territory lost to the Islamists who had declared a caliphate on Nigerian soil. The recent military successes, while welcomed, left many Nigerians wondering why Jonathan waited until the eve of an election before getting serious on terrorism. Regarding corruption, numerous financial scandals involving government ministers and allegations of billions going missing from public coffers in recent years made it difficult for Jonathan to convince Nigerians that he was serious about tackling what is widely regarded as the country’s biggest curse.<br />
<br />
The president’s campaign did what it could to try to discredit Buhari, but in a haphazard fashion. One day Jonathan’s people would accuse Buhari, a Muslim, of wanting to introduce strict Sharia law throughout Nigeria, the next they’d insist he wants to legalise same-sex marriage. Buhari, for his part, exhibited grace under fire throughout the campaign, maintaining an air of dignity. His never-say-die attitude invited respect; this was his fourth attempt at the presidency.<br />
<br />
In the end, Nigerians responded in their millions to Buhari’s unoriginal yet effective slogan of “change”. People turned out to even in the troubled areas of the north-east, where Boko Haram had vowed to attack anyone who dared to vote.<br />
<br />
Nigeria has suffered from mediocre leadership for as long as I can remember. Most heads of state have been corrupt, small-minded men, incapable of seeing further than the ends of their own nose. A principled man in the presidential office is nothing short of revolutionary in Nigeria. The excited reactions to Buhari’s victory in various parts of the country attest to the hope he inspires in many.<br />
<br />
But his honeymoon with Nigerians will not last long. Millions of people believed in his message of change. Expectations are high and it will be easy to disappoint. It is not an easy country to govern.<br />
<br />
With government revenues reeling from the slump in oil prices and a fast-growing population expected to reach 210 million by 2020 amidst high unemployment, Buhari will have his work cut out. If history is anything to go by, he will delegate economic policy to technocrats, and focus his own energies on tackling insecurity and reducing corruption in government.<br />
<br />
But whatever happens, Nigeria will never be the same again. Something has changed in the psyche of the Nigerian citizen. For the first time since independence in 1960, Nigerians have defenestrated a sitting president. The masses now realise the tremendous might they can wield when they act collectively. It is a lesson that will embolden them. The era when Nigeria’s rulers could take the people for granted is no more.<br />

<b>Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has congratulated the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd) on his victory in the presidential poll, charging him to fight corruption and carry out reforms in different sectors.</b><br />
<br />
The congratulatory message was made available to our correspondent at Abeokuta on Tuesday following Buhari victory in the March 28 presidential election.<br />
<br />
Obasanjo, who noted that so much harm had already been done to many national institutions, including the military, however, advised him to be magnanimous in victory.<br />
<br />
He said, "With so much harm already done to many national institutions including the military, which proudly nurtured you and me, you will have a lot to do on institution reform – education, healthcare, economy, security, infrastructure, power, youth employment, agri-business, oil and gas, external affairs, cohesiveness of our nation and ridding our land of corruption.<br />
<br />
"Your varied and wide experience will undoubtedly stand you in good stead."<br />
<br />
The former president said the country "is blessed with men and women of goodwill, character and virtue across the board that you can mobilise to join hands with you in the reform, repairs and re- direction that will be imperative to put Nigeria back on the fast lane of good governance, unity, cohesiveness, development and progress."<br />
<br />
Obasanjo noted that Buhari’s victory, after three previous unsuccessful attempts, must be a great lesson to himself and for all politicians, particularly in Nigeria.<br />
<br />
He said, "For me, the totality of 2015 elections hold many lessons for our democracy and democratisation process, which are both maturing.<br />
<br />
"On this occasion, the system has been unnecessarily overheated before and particularly during the campaigns when emphasis was more on trivialities and hate, divisive, undignifying and disrespectful statements and comments rather than on pressing issues requiring attention.<br />
<br />
"I know that in victory, you will be magnanimous to start binding the wounds and bitterness occasioned by the campaign and the evil disciples."<br />

<b>Lai Mohammed, APC spokesman calls Goodluck Jonathan a 'hero' for conceding ‘it will calm everything’ he says.</b><br />
<br />
“President Jonathan called General Muhammadu Buhari, the winner of the elections, to congratulate him,” Lai Mohammed, spokesman for the APC, said.<br />
<br />
“There had always been this fear that he might not want to concede, but he will remain a hero for this move. The tension will go down dramatically,<br />
<br />
“Anyone who tries to foment trouble on the account that they have lost the election will be doing so purely on his own,” he added.<br />
<br />
Victory for Buhari marks the first time in Nigeria’s history that an opposition party has democratically taken control of the country from the ruling party.<br />
<br />
A while ago, President Goodluck Jonathan called his major challenger and the likely-winner of the 2015 presidential election, Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress, APC to congratulate him.<br />
<br />
Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka said the president spoke with Muhammadu Buhari on the phone and will address the country after rounding off his meeting with his cabinet.<br />
<br />
President Jonathan also spoke with the National Leader of APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the 2015 election, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), has expressed gratitude to Nigerians for voting him and his party to steer the ship of state for the next four years.</b><br />
<br />
Buhari said this in an interim message of thanks and gratitude to Nigerians in Abuja on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
This was contained in a statement by the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Malam Garba Shehu.<br />
<br />
In the message, Buhari thanked Nigerians “for choosing him and his party over and above the PDP and their candidate, the incumbent President, Dr Jonathan Goodluck.”<br />
<br />
The APC statement said it “Declared victory after Dr. Jonathan called General Buhari at 5.15pm to make a concession and congratulate the winner.<br />
<br />
Shehu quoted Buhari as saying the mood of the country as well as its current state, did not warrant the type of wild celebrations reportedly going on in some cities across the country.<br />
<br />
“Buhari said anybody happy with the victory of the APC in the presidential election will not be involved in the molestation of opponents or the destruction of their property.<br />
<br />
“He or she is not with me, whoever does that,” Buhari curtly said.<br />
<br />
He is expected to make a major acceptance speech as soon as the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission declares the final results in which Buhari is expected to be declared winner.<br />

<b>The All Progressives Congress has lost five House of Representatives seats to the Peoples Democratic Party and a seat to the Accord Party in Lagos.</b><br />
<br />
Investigations by our correspondent showed that most of the reps lost in Igbo- dominated local government areas.<br />
<br />
Sources in the APC said the love the people of the South-East have for President Goodluck Jonathan positively affected the PDP candidates, some of whom had not even been rigorously campaigning.<br />
<br />
In Amuwo Odofin local government, which has a very high Igbo population, especially in areas like Kirikiri, Satellite Town and FESTAC, the PDP candidate, Oghene Egboh, who is from the Niger-Delta, defeated Mr. Ganiyu Olukolu of the APC.<br />
<br />
In Ajeromi/Ifelodun, which is one of the most densely populated areas in Lagos State and is home to Ajegunle (another Igbo dominated area), the PDP candidate, Mrs. Rita Orji, who also hails from the South-East, defeated Taiwo Adenekan of the APC.<br />
<br />
The story was the same in the Igbo-dominated Ojo LG, where the PDP candidate, Mr. Tajudeen Obasa, won the seat.<br />
<br />
In Surulere federal constituency 2, which is home to Aguda and a few Igbo settlements, Mr. Tunji Soyinka of the PDP defeated Mr. Hakeem Bamgbala of the APC.<br />
<br />
It was learnt that apart from the ‘Igbo’ factor, the incumbent rep, Mr. Aliyu Kazeem, had been in court with Bamgbala over the conduct of the primary.<br />
<br />
It was learnt that the division within the party gave the PDP the opportunity to penetrate the community.<br />
<br />
An APC leader in Surulere said, “We are still in shock. Haliyu Kazeem, who is the incumbent, lost the primary in December last year and refused to work with Bamgbala. He took Bamgbala to court and they are still slugging it out.<br />
<br />
“If they had put things in order, we would not have lost. Bamgbala is a former chairman of Aguda Local Council Development Area and a good grass roots politician.”<br />
<br />
In Mushin federal constituency 2, the APC candidate, Yemi Alli, lost to Dauda Kako-Aare of the Accord Party.<br />
<br />
Kako-Aare, who is the incumbent, lost at the APC primary last December to Alli and defected to Accord.<br />
<br />
In Oshodi/Isolo federal constituency 2, the incumbent, Mr. Akeem Munir, lost to Mr. Tony Nwoolu of the PDP.</div>

<b><br /></b>
<b>A shocking video recorded for PREMIUM TIMES in Polling Units 009, 010 and 011 at Oniong West Ward 1, Onna Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State, has exposed an official of the Independent National Electoral Commission colluding with supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party in the area to rig the presidential and national assembly election in favour of the party.</b><br />
<br />
The ugly incident happened in the village square - Ikot Eko Ibon village - within the full glare of the villagers.<br />
<br />
Former Secretary to the Federal Government, Obong Ufot Ekaette and wife, Eme Ekaette, a former senator, are from the area.<br />
<br />
But they did not show up for voting on Saturday. Some of those who spoke to PREMIUM TIMES in the area said the Ekaettes may have stayed away from voting because of their disappointment with the PDP and Governor Godswill Akpabio’s leadership style.<br />
<br />
INEC officials were through with voters’ accreditation as early as 1:30PM in the three units, but refused to commence voting until some PDP chieftains arrived around 4pm.<br />
<br />
The PDP chieftains, who apparently were working in agreement with the INEC officials in the units, immediately ordered all the voters to move away from the polling centre.<br />
<br />
In the midst of the confusion that ensued, gunshot was fired within the polling centre, prompting the voters who were mostly old men and women from the village to run away to safety.<br />
<br />
The PDP supporters then had a field day thumb-printing ballot papers, under the supervision of INEC officials.<br />
<br />
Security officials were not deployed in the three units. It is unclear if it is deliberate to allow the PDP supporters execute their plans without molestation.<br />
<br />
One of the INEC officials in the units told PREMIUM TIMES he and his colleagues were under pressure from their ‘boss’ to assist the PDP win the elections, but didn’t however explain who the boss was.<br />
<br />
The PDP governorship candidate, Udom Emmanuel, is from Onna Local Government Area where the rigging captured on the video took place.<br />
<br />
In other parts of Akwa Ibom state, especially in areas considered as APC strongholds, there were reported cases of non-availability of election result sheets at the polling units.<br />
<br />
The APC governorship candidate, Umana Umana objected to INEC accreditation and election taking place in his ward at Ndiya, Nsit Ubium Local Government Area, because election result sheets were not available.<br />
<br />
The Akwa Ibom state chapter of the APC has petitioned INEC chairman, Attahiru Jega, calling for fresh election in the state.<br />
<br />
On Monday, the APC governorship candidate led a peaceful protest to INEC office in Uyo calling for the cancellation of the poll, describing it as a farce.<br />
<br />
The protesters stormed the INEC office while the collation of the presidential election result was going on.<br />
<br />
Mr. Umana said the party would not accept the results of Saturday’s elections held in the state.<br />
<br />
He said the party, after a review of field reports on the elections across the state, had come to the conclusion that the elections be cancelled.<br />
<br />
The People’s Democratic Movement’s candidate for the House of Representatives (Ikot Ekpene Federal Constituency), Anny Asikpo, has made similar allegation of election result sheets not being available during the election.<br />
<br />
“We have 365 polling units, but as I speak to you I have not seen nor know how the result sheets for yesterday’s election look like because everything was carted away by the PDP to an unknown destination. There was no election in Ikot Ekpene Senatorial District,” Dr. Asikpo told a local radio station in Akwa Ibom State, Planet FM, on telephone during a live phone-in programme on Sunday.<br />

<b>The Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, has imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on Port Harcourt, the state capital, hours after the Independent National Electoral Commission announced the result of the presidential and National Assembly elections in the state.</b><br />
<br />
In a terse statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government, George Feyi, the governor said the curfew will hold from 7p.m. to 6a.m.<br />
<br />
"The curfew will continue till further notice," a part of the statement said.<br />
<br />
The declaration of the curfew comes amidst heightened tension occasioned by the conduct of last Saturday’s election in the state.<br />
<br />
Mr. Amaechi and the All Progressives Congress had boycotted the polls over the failure of INEC to supply result sheets to many polling units especially in the party strongholds.<br />
<br />
But the elections continued despite the boycott and the result of both the presidential and National Assembly polls were announced at about 2pm amidst protests and call for cancellation by the APC.<br />

<b>Senate President David Mark survived a grilling electoral battle to pick the ticket for the Benue South Senatorial District in the National Assembly.</b><br />
<br />
Earlier report had suggested that Mark, representing the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who is seeking his fifth term in the Senate, might have been defeated.<br />
<br />
Latest result has however indicated that the Senate President has survived his toughest battle ever since he started contesting the ticket from the zone since the return to democratic rule in the country in 1999.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, Governor Aliyu Wammakko of Sokoto State (APC); his Plateau State counterpart, Jonah Jang (PDP); Abia State Governor, Theodore Orji (PDP); and Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State (APC), have won their Senatorial election to represent their respective zones in their states.<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>President Goodluck Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has defeated his opponent of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Gen. Mohammadu Buhari in a keenly contested election in Nasarawa State.</b><br />
<br />
Announcing the result at the state headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the state collation officer, Prof. Abdulmumin Hassan Rafindadi, Jonathan defeated Buhari with 36, 627 votes.<br />
<br />
He polled <b>273,460</b> while Buhari of the APC polled a total of <b>236,838 </b>after leading in seven local government areas out of thirteen.<br />
<br />
President Jonathan’s return quest got its biggest boost in Nasarawa Eggon local government which is home to an array of PDP stalwarts like Sen. Solomon Ewuga and Sen. Patricia Akwashiki, minister for Information.<br />
<br />
He polled 44,825 as against Buhari’s 7,574 to close in on a heavy defeat he suffered in Nasarawa local government where Buhari polled 29,160 as against his 19,889.<br />
<br />
Lafia, the state capital, which hitherto gave APC landslide victories in elections could not deliver Buhari in the same spirit this time as the votes returned shows that the APC got 53,008 votes to PDPs 51,633.<br />
<br />
To emerge victorious in a state which was previously written off for APC, Jonathan defeated his opponent in Keana, Obi, Kokona, Doma, Karu, Nasarawa-Eggon and Akwanga local government areas.</div>
