National Auditor of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Adewole Adeyanju, has declared that President Goodluck Jonathan is qualified to run for a second term in 2015.
Adeyanju also urged members of the party in the South-West to support Jonathan in his second term bid.
The PDP national auditor, a recent replacement for Chief Bode Mustapha, said the president never signed any agreement with anyone that he would not contest in 2015.
Adeyanju who spoke at a grand reception organised in his honour in Ilaro, Ogun State, by the PDP in the state, said justice would only be done in the country if all the zones were allowed to take their turns at the nation’s presidency one after the other, saying this would better the lot of the nation as every section would be assured of having a shot at the number one office at the appropriate time.
He said, “Today, our leader in the PDP is President and Commander-in-Chief of Armed Forces in Nigeria, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan. This man is from the South-South, the best thing we can do to sustain Nigeria is to take Nigeria turn-by-turn Nigeria limited. South-West has done two terms, South- South is there, and we should allow them to do two terms, that is how Nigeria can survive.
“The President should be allowed to run for second term because he represents the South-South. Others can take their turn when it gets to their turn.”
Adeyanju, a former member of Obasanjo’s faction of the party in the state, also expressed readiness to beg any aggrieved member in the interest of the unity of the party.
He however said the new strategies adopted by the PDP National Chairman, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, to solve the crisis rocking the party had been yielding results.
Meanwhile, ahead of the 2015 general elections, the PDP in Ogun State on Saturday warned Governor Ibikunle Amosun and the ruling Action Congress of Nigeria not to be deceived by the current division within the party in the state.
The Ogun PDP said the ACN-led government in the state should discard the erroneous belief that it would have a smooth ride in the 2015 general elections.
It said the party in Ogun State had been waxing stronger, contrary to the recent insinuation by Amosun that the PDP in the state was dead.
The Ogun PDP Chairman, Chief Adebayo Dayo, who stated this during a grand reception organised in honour of Adeyanju said the opposition party would ensure that it displaced the ruling ACN in 2015.
