The ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has fired backed at former President, Goodluck Jonathan, over the statement credited to him.
The Spokesman of the APC, Bolaji Abdullahi, stated that Jonathan has insulted millions of Nigerians who voted President Muhammadu Buhari into power in 2015.

Gistlovers recalls that Jonathan while receiving one of the chairmanship aspirants of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Prof Tunde Adeniran, at his private residence in Abuja, insisted that the PDP, which controlled government at the centre from 1999 to 2015, did well for the country, but that the APC has failed the country and its people.
Reacting, Abdullahi said: “I doubt that President Jonathan actually said these words you have reported, because he would be exposing himself to reactions that would not be edifying of his status as a statesman by so doing. Secondly, I know the former President to be of even temperament.

“Only a few days ago, I read that he was counseling his party on the choice of Chairman and Publicity Secretary. Statements like these would not represent an example of the kind of attitude he was canvassing.
“But if he truly said that, I would say with due respect, that he may need to commission a more dispassionate study of how and why APC won the 2015 Presidential election.
“To say that APC won the election simply by deceiving the people, would be too simplistic, and may even be interpreted as an insult to the millions of Nigerians that voted the APC into power”, he said.
