Sambo Is Part Of Our Winning Team – PDP


The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday said it was satisfied with the working relationship between President Goodluck Jonathan and Vice President Namadi Sambo, noting that the vice president is part of the party’s winning team ahead of the 2015 election.



A statement by the national publicity secretary of the PDP, Olisa Metuh, yesterday restated the overwhelming confidence of the party in a winning team that had transformed Nigeria in less than four years in office despite obvious challenges.

“There is no doubt whatsoever that the vice president has the implicit confidence of the president. The PDP is therefore very pleased that they are working together in actualizing the transformation agenda to the popular acclaim of both Nigerians and the international community. “

“We wish to place on record as well that the 66th NEC meeting of our great party which endorsed President Jonathan as the sole candidate of the PDP for the 2015 general elections, responsibly reasoned and anchored this decision on the outstanding performance of the Jonathan Presidency of which Vice President Sambo is an integral part of.

He noted that the motion, which was unanimously endorsed by NEC left no room for any form of speculation as Sen. Jim Nwobodo, who had seconded it, expressly commended both the president and the vice president for lifting the banner of the PDP very high while praying the NEC to approve the motion.



The party added that its statement was to clarify obvious

misinterpretation arising from its position at the world press conference yesterday, where it averred that the President was yet to accept the sole presidential candidacy offered by its NEC.

More firepower against ISIS

Not weeks. Not months. Years. That's how long nations entering the fight against ISIS may need to be prepared to spend on the battle, British and U.S. officials say. British Prime Minister David Cameron told Parliament Friday of the likely length of the mission ahead of what turned out to be an overwhelming vote to send UK air power into the fight.
