Read Pres.Jonathan's Official Speech on Election Results

Fellow Nigerians,
I thank you all for turning out en-
masse for the March 28 General
Elections. I promised the country
free and fair elections. I have
kept my word. I have also
expanded the space for
Nigerians to participate in the
democratic process. That is one
legacy I will like to see endure.
Although some people have
expressed mixed feelings about
the results announced by the
Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC), I urge those
who may feel aggrieved to follow
due process based on our
constitution and our electoral
laws, in seeking redress.
As I have always affirmed,
nobody's ambition is worth the
blood of any Nigerian. The unity,
stability and progress of our dear
country is more important than
anything else.
I congratulate all Nigerians for
successfully going through the
process of the March 28th
General Elections with the
commendable enthusiasm and
commitment that was
demonstrated nationwide.
I also commend the Security
Services for their role in ensuring
that the elections were mostly
peaceful and violence-free.
To my colleagues in the PDP, I
thank you for your support.
Today, the PDP should be
celebrating rather than
mourning. We have established a
legacy of democratic freedom,
transparency, economic growth
and free and fair elections.
For the past 16 years, we have
steered the country away from
ethnic and regional politics. We
created a Pan-Nigerian political
party and brought home to our
people the realities of economic
development and social
transformation.
Through patriotism and
diligence, we have built the
biggest and most patriotic party
in Nigerian history. We must
stand together as a party and
look to the future with renewed
optimism.
I thank all Nigerians once again
for the great opportunity I was
given to lead this country and
assure you that I will continue to
do my best at the helm of
national affairs until the end of
my tenure.
I have conveyed my personal
best wishes to General
Muhammadu Buhari.
May God Almighty continue to
bless the Federal Republic of
Nigeria.
I thank you all.
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR
President,
Federal Republic of Nigeria
March 31, 2015
