Terrorism Sponsored To Discredit Goodluck Jonathan-PDP

You would recall that prior to the 2011 general elections,some individuals in the northern part of Nigeria made threats to the effect that they were going to make the country ungovernable if President Goodluck Jonathan won the already scheduled elections.Jonathan eventually won the elections and ever since then,its been one act of terrorism to the other.Boko Haram have continued to carry out deadly and senseless attacks on innocent citizens,and the attacks seem to have increased with 2015 elections around the corner,even though security agencies have been up and doing.
The PDP through its Natiotional Publicity Secretary Chief Olisa Matuh have therefore declared that these acts of terrorism were sponsored by unpatriotic and wicked Nigerians all to discredit the President and his administration and to paint him as a weak leader.

"We accept the reality of terrorism as a global phenomenon, however, the peculiar trend of the Nigerian version which subsists on a welter of nebulous demands and masked identities, hacking down innocent Nigerians -women, children and the elderly in an awful scorch earth fashion, and in an obstinate ridicule of dialogue, defies all reason and logic and only summarises a well considered agenda of national destabilisation for a purely selfish political cause. We pointedly finger the opposition.

"We recall statements by some politicians, vowing to make the country ungovernable for President Jonathan on the eve of the 2011 general election, and therefore adjure Nigerians to rise against this brute ideology of violence from which a tiny clique of the political class intends to benefit ultimately. It is the climax of wickedness only heard of the Lucifer in the distant bosom of hell fire."

The statement further said that the President was being persecuted because of his minority origin and that no President in the history of Nigeria had been this persecuted and criticized.

"Ironically, this is in spite of his humility and his fidelity to the orthodoxy of all democratic norms and values. This is in spite of his proven commitment to the unity and progress of every party of Nigeria irrespective of tribe and religion.  Ironically, this is in spite of his proven competence and record delivery of his electoral promises.
