"We as governors came to
assure him (the President) that
we are going back as field
commanders to hold our states
and that come April 11, PDP will
still maintain its lead across
Nigeria. Everybody knows that
the only party that is national in
nature and is on ground is the
PDP. So we are not going to be
undaunted by what has
happened.The party has already
indicated that it will explore all
legal means in order to ensure
redress. So, we are also proud of
the party and we want to
congratulate all our voters and
all PDP faithfuls across Nigeria
for their peaceful disposition.
This is the only party that has
not carried stick to break
somebody’s windscreen after
election. Because of the
sacrificial stand of the President,
our faithfuls are not on the
streets, breaking APC
windscreens and vehicles. If it
were to be the other way round,
you know what would have
happened today. That is where
Nigerians must judge: we want
peace, stability and unity.” he
