President
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has called on aggrieved candidates of other political
parties in the just concluded Anambra State governorship election to seek
redress in a law court.
Jonathan
who made this call in a statement signed by his spokesman, Dr Reuben Abati
congratulated the winner of the election and candidate of the All Progressives
Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Willie Obiano, who was declared winner by the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) after a supplementary election
on Saturday, November 30, 2013.
He
urged the Anambra governor-elect to dedicate himself to building on the laudable
achievements of his predecessor, Mr Peter Obi, adding that Obiano should
be fully committed to further the socio-economic development of all parts of
Anambra State and the protection of the interests of all citizens of the state
irrespective of their party affiliations or political loyalties.
“To
promote greater peace, unity and harmony within the state, President Jonathan
calls on Chief Obiano to ensure that his incoming administration carries all
stakeholders along in its bid to move Anambra forward.
“The
President assures Chief Obiano that the Federal Government under his leadership
will continue to work with the Anambra State government and all other state
governments to achieve better living conditions for all Nigerians.
“Having
also noted complaints about the conduct of the governorship elections in
Anambra, President Jonathan calls on all aggrieved persons to keep their bids
for redress within the bounds of legality, decorum and acceptable political
conduct in conformity with the principles of democracy and the rule of law.”
The
President urged Obiano to promote greater peace, unity and harmony within the
state by carrying all stakeholders along in a bid to move Anambra forward.
