2007 election results embarrassed me, says Jonathan “I was embarrassed when the international observers complained that there were certain bridges (in the 2007 polls.) “Even though after taking oath of office and the Supreme Court declared us winners, but each time one travelled abroad, people asked all kinds of questions that even got one angry. “That was when I promised myself that if have an opportunity to oversee elections in Nigeria, no other President or Vice President should suffer that can kind of harassment by the international community. “That is why the 2011 elections, even though I was candidate, I said nobody should manipulate elections for me. That my ambition and the fate of the country are two different things, the interest of the nation is much more superior than any other ambition and I kept faith with that. “At least at the end of that elections, it was accepted by observers locally and internationally. And I promise that 2015 elections will be better.”
