Jonathan is a failure - El-Rufai

 Former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, (FCT), Malam Nasir el-Rufai, has said President Goodluck Jonathan is the worst Nigerian President, describing the zoning formula of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a failure.

This is as el-Rufai who is also the Deputy National Secretary of APC said President Goodluck Jonathan is the most incompetent leader ever produced in Nigeria.
Speaking at the distribution of poverty alleviation materials of APC senator representing Kaduna Central, General Mohammed Saleh (rtd) in Kaduna yesterday, el-Rufai said APC was working toward a credible election in 2015.

On his part, former speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Bello Masari, noted that PDP was already afraid of the APC having seen its strength, adding that the party is the alternative to PDP.
However el-Rufai who was answering questions from newsmen stated that, “We want credible election so that we kick out those who have been embezzling our public funds and destroying our institutions”.

He said the woes in the country are caused by the PDP. “It is mostly a PDP issue because it controls about 24 states in Nigeria and the kind of leadership that it provides is an example for everyone. “PDP is the biggest problem and also the followership is also another problem of its own; the major problem of Nigeria is the toxic party called the PDP.

The fact that one is in PDP does not mean that when you recognise that the party has gone toxic you should not leave, can you compare General Buhari with anyone in the PDP?
“We are offering Nigerians an alternative and fresh approach to governance that is inclusive, honest and fair that will serve the people and not that which will serve the pockets of a few”, he said.
On the 2015 presidency, he noted that: “I don’t think the North and the South are the issue, what Nigeria needs is a competent president, whether he is from the North or South; it is immaterial to us in APC.

“We want competent governors that will serve the people, whether blue, black, from the moon or south we are not concerned with that, and I think Nigerians should stop voting people on the basis of where they come from. President Jonathan is the most incompetent president in Nigeria from.
Also speaking at the same event in Kaduna, Masari said, “PDP is only afraid of the emergence of APC; they are aware of the strength of the party and certainly APC is an alternative to PDP”.

He boasted that “APC will form the next state and National government come 2015. PDP is the unpopular party in Nigeria today, what you see in PDP is government officials.
“The present administration’s performance under President Jonathan’s leadership is very disappointing, it has not delivered anything, no security, power, there is nothing you can say is the achievement of the PDP government,” he said.
Senator Saleh distributed 15 Peugeot cars (406), 350 motorcycles and 80 deep fridges to members of his constituency as part of his contribution to their welfare.
