Leadership (Abuja) Bethrand Nwankwo22 April 2011

Mr Labaran Maku has called reasons Abuja - the Minister of information and communication, why the presidential candidate of the peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. GOODLUCK Jonathan won the just concluded presidential election in the country.

Addressing a press conference in Abuja yesterday, the Minister attributed the victory of the party in the presidential election the presence of the PDP in all 36 States of the Federal and Abuja. He have also the victory of the President in the poll due to his performance and the people trust in him, as he denied, that the choice in favour of PDP has been tampered with. He said "Professor Jega INEC fleeing from the same zone with the Congress of progressive change for (CPC) candidates for the presidential election."

Jega is Hausa-Fulani Muslim of Kebbi State, so that the question edit by someone not someone who. There is a large change in the perception of politics in Nigeria.

Goodluck Jonathan is from the ethnic minority which has never ruled the country in the past. But because he have alliances in the country could and was of a large parties in the country and because of his character, humility, and his performance in the Government is sponsored, it and the trusted people why he choose won "said he."

He said that the Godfather, which dictate, wins the election, were losing that attributed it to free and fair nature of the choice.

The Minister, who condemned the violence in some parts of the country, who advise, who were not happy with the outcome of the election, to channel their complaints to the Court instead of resorting to violence.

He said PDP was not in the control the independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and added that the electoral body, was given a free hand to use. He said that was the PDP of a transnational party, which has spread all over the country.

His opinion, for each party in Nigeria, a presidential election win, that party must have a national distribution. He said there was no way the CPC the presidential election could have won, because it has no national distribution.

"So, the PDP is a transnational party." Nigeria is a country of 250 different ethnic groups and a party that wants to win at the national level must, at least, reach out to a wide range of these groups. If you don't, the consequence of that the last is your victory.

"The CPC reach not." The ACN accepts his fate because the ACN in the Southwest is domiciled. The performance of the CPC is due to the fact that there is a a-year-old party and the fact that it expect not structure in wide range of the Federation of. "And because it won is not in the State, by controlled were it clearly indicates that it, carried out on what should have run you", the Minister said.

He said that for the CPC to run its capacity have shown that the election was free and fair.

Maku, which confirmed that CPC has a credible candidate added that the party was only a year and had no control over all prior State, that presidential elections.

Maku said that CPC could have made tangible impact, if all Nigerian political party (ANPP) had developed the proposed alliance with the action of Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and who.

To condemn the violence in some States, the Minister described it as the handiwork of some criminals. He said the violence was neither ethnic nor religious but simply a political issue as a result of the just concluded presidential elections. He said that those who were either killed or wounded were mainly Muslims.

"It is my opinion after that the violence was the handiwork of criminal and villains who probably negative mobilised." Strictly speaking, it can be seen as really sectarian. It can be negative mobilization and the mood in the campaign were of course, "he said."

He said that the Federal Government the number of the security authorities, where the violence broke out had increased so that peace and security of life and property in these areas.
