The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, has congratulated Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari on his victory at the March 28 presidential election.
He said it was the will of God that the All Progressives Congress produced the president of the country in 2015.
Okupe, however, said on his Facebook page on Thursday that if it took Buhari 30 years to come back to power, it would take the Peoples Democratic Party much less to do so.
He said PDP was bowed, but not cowed.
He wrote, “It has pleased the Almighty God to give victory to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the APC and the President-elect. We accept this as the will of God and I personally congratulate the General on his success.
“We have run a good race and fought a gallant battle. We are bowed but not cowed. We lost the crown but we gained a trophy. The PDP family must not despair; if it took General Buhari 30 years to come back to power, it should take us much less. For the opportunities we have had, we give God all the glory.
“The strife is over for the next four years only. We rejoice with APC and the people of Nigeria on the process we have jointly made in our democratic journey. For our democracy to endure, it is important that the winner clearly emerges while the loser concedes with equanimity.
“Certainly, we will be back. We will overcome this defeat and rise to power and glory in the twinkle of an eye.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Lovely words from excellent politician. Goodluck Jonathan is the stateman we know! You can't steal part of his glory. What kind of adviser have you been?
ReplyDeleteExactly!!! Please help us ask him ooo...We have not forgotten all your campaign of calumny against the General. I only feel sorry for President Goodluck Jonathan, he surrounded himself with wolfs in sheep skin (Okupe, FFK, Oduah, Deziani, Reno, Abati...). Posterity will judge you ALL.
ReplyDeleteElder, I think you are not addressing the real issues surrounding your party's demise and this will ensure that the nails are finally hammered on the coffin of your party come 11/04/2015 by the special grace of Almighty God.
ReplyDeleteYou are also not remorseful that the people has rejected your party from leading this great Nation called Nigeria. Your demonstrated attitude should be a concern to any right thinking Nigerian.
Your statements and that of your party compatriots reminds me of the statements of some Nigerians that were convicted for corruption in the past, rather than being sincerely apologetic and remorsefully, one of them was foolish enough to tell Nigerians that "He Will Be Back" i.e. "He Will Bounce Back".
Nigerians rejected your party from leading Nigeria based on Godly principles and all you and your party compatriots can do is boast to us that "Your Party Will Bounce Back". This is indeed rather very very unfortunate.
During this election, your party mostly depended on openly squandering the scarce Dollars of the Nation in order to buy the heart of electorates (especially the religious leaders and traditional rulers) but the majority of people in Nigeria depended on the Almighty God (the one that has the heart of even Kings in His Hands).
Your party has aligned itself with Weapons that are Carnal but the majority in Nigeria (including Lagos) have aligned themselves with the weapons that are NOT Carnal.
The Almighty God has already hearkened to the cry of sincere and patriotic Nigerians (including Lagosians) that we do not want a ruling party but a party that equivocally states that they are a governing party which means servants of the people.
Within the next four years, God will use APC all over Nigeria (including Lagos) to set the requisite Leadership Standards after which the stage can be set for serious politics in Nigeria henceforth.
Sir,
ReplyDeletePlease permit us to announce to you that it's no more business as usual Sir, the almighty God has firmly transferred power back into the hands of the people. Our votes now count through our PVCs.
By the special grace of almighty God, the Card Readers shall work perfectly come 11/04/2015 and your ruling proud party shall be firmly voted out of power even in many more states across the Federation.
Just like one patriotic Nigerian indicated, the following Bible verses are speaking against you and your party in general, I would implore that you kindly take time to read and meditate on each of them very well;
1) Proverbs 14 vs 34: Sir, it is righteous and the strife and thirst for it that will exalt our dear Nation and the unprecedented corruption and governance atrocities you and your party are known and obvious disgrace/embarrassment to our dear Nation Nigeria, e.g. Drug Baron Burugi Kashamu, Ekiti Gate Tapes, Corruption is not same as Stealing, etc.
2) Proverbs 6 vs 16-19: Sir, it is common knowledge that these are the key attributes of your so-called great party, you encourage pathological liars, murderers, wicked schemes (you postponed the election because you felt GEJ will loose woefully, and now it has happened), you encourage evil (thank God for the way Prof. Jega handled Elder Orubebe, your evil scheme backfired and GEJ was forced to quickly concede defeat knowing fully well that he can never be exonerated from the shameless manner (which for the records, GEJ has never officially rebuked to this day) that Elder Orubebe portrayed our dear Nation Nigeria, you encourage false witnesses who pours out lies and above all your party encourage GEJ to stirred up dissension among Nigerians who are suppose to see themselves as brothers (... in brotherhood we are suppose to stand.).
3) Ephesians 5 vs 11-13: Sir, it is also a common knowledge that your so-called great party encourages and rewards evil doers and workers of iniquity.
By this Sir, permit me to conclude that, it is only a foolish and unduly sentimental Nigerian that will believe that your party PDP in it's current composition and disposition as it is has any sincere thing to offer Nigerians and Nigeria at large.
Is it terminator 2? We will b back. Baba ode. Except APC does not know what it took to get there. Everyone now knows if you don't perform you're history. So they will likely perform just to make sure they stay so long that u guys will 4get which party you belong to.
ReplyDeletePDP is finished as a party. The name will change in future to try to bury their shame. Smaller parties will become more relevant than PDP in future.
ReplyDeleteOga Doyin, PDP will never rule Nigeria again! God forbid! I'm sure by this time next year your kind will be card carrying members of the APC!
ReplyDeletePDP is finished! There's nothing good to remember about your party. Idi Amin's regime was better and more tolerable than your six years of torture!
NOT the matter of PDP OR APC if Buhari put religious and ethnic sentment ahead of nigerian's interest definitely he must leave Aso ROCK comes 20019
ReplyDeleteHe accepted that he is a BASTARD. Also won a trophy of FAILURE
ReplyDeleteAPC will govern till jesus come back
