Those criticising PDP are pretenders - Jonathan President Goodluck Jonathan yesterday descended heavily on critics of the PDP, saying they were pretenders who have refused to admit the fact that the party had achieved tremendously in line with its promises to Nigerians since it came to power in 1999. According to him, apart from boasting as the only party that has retained its identity since three parties were registered in 1998, the PDP remained the only party that is not align to any ethic, religious or regional interest. Jonathan noted that, while other parties have imploded or have their identities subsumed in search of political direction and relevance, the PDP stood the test of time. Stressing, Jonathan said, “We are bound together by the love of God and the Love of our dear country. We have very promising years ahead of us as we continue to transform our great nation. We must continue to do this as we work in one accord and unity. “Ours is not only the party of the present, but is the party of the future. It is very clear that we are the party destined to take Nigeria to greatness. We are the party that holds the interest of Nigerians dearly at heart. We do not pursue divisible policies, we do not preach hate, we reject violence, we reject killings, we recognise Nigeria as one indivisible entity; we deplore ethnic distrust among our great people. He added, as the biggest party in Africa that is truly nationalistic in nature, PDP would not disappoint Nigerians, just as he reaffirmed the party’s commitment to internal democracy and belief in the rule of law.
