“Jonathan best person suited to lead the country to promised destination”- Shekarau

While addressing a large crowd of supporters over the weekend at his Mundubawa home in the Bompai Highbrow GRA quarters, Former minister of education, Malam Ibrahim Shekarau said that he has no regret joining Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Shekarau said he will continue working for the success of the party for the rest of his life.

He blasted the APC-led federal government’s anti-corruption stance, wondering how it could fight corruption if one looks at the close allies of the president who were actively instrumental to his success, as they were all ex PDP members.

 

Shekarau further explained that, histories relating to electoral rigging, manipulations, intimidation in states like Rivers, Kano, Plateau, Kaduna, Edo and some others in the South-west were successfully executed by those now calling themselves progressives and likened it to a situation where the kettle is calling pot black.

The two-term governor of Kano also revealed that PDP has excellent policies and programs designed to uplift the country but was betrayed by those he called ingrate politicians, expressing hope that the party will bounce back and reclaim its mandate come 2019.

He commended the Reconciliation Committee set up by the party to review its dismal performance in the last general elections for doing an excellent assignment hoping that the National Executive Council of the PDP will implement the far reaching decision recommended by the committee for the overall success of the party. 

Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, re-affirmed his loyalty to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan, describing him as the best person suited to lead the country to its promised destination.
