President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday, April 7,
condemned what he called “negative triumphalism” which he said had been
adopted...
by some unnamed persons since his defeat to Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to the president, the action flies in the face of his personal commitment to post-election peace, unity and national stability.
Jonathan made his stance known in a statement released by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati.
Abati said as the nation prepared for Saturday’s governorship and State Assembly elections, Jonathan called on all Nigerians to remain peaceful, united and law-abiding.
He said while also condemning the undue harassment of public officials serving under him, the president urged the victims to continue to discharge their responsibilities without fear.
He said, “The President condemns the very unseemly attempt by some politicians, groups and individuals to intimidate others, heat up the polity and cause public disorder and disaffection in the aftermath of the Presidential and National Assembly elections.
