Below is an official statement by President
Jonathan after the announcement of the results of presidential election
Fellow Nigerians,
I thank you all for turning out
en-masse for the March 28 General Elections. I promised the country free and
fair elections. I have kept my word. I have also expanded the space for
Nigerians to participate in the democratic process. That is one legacy I will
like to see endure. Although some people have expressed
mixed feelings about the results announced by the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC), I urge those who may feel aggrieved to follow due
process based on our constitution and our electoral laws, in seeking redress.
