Aso Rock Describes N2trillion Election Funds Story as “Mischievous, False and Wrongheaded”

The presidency has exposed today's front-page story on the Sunday Punch that said Pres. Jonathan spent a whopping N2 trillion on the 2015 General elections, and that a committee of five has been set up by President Jonathan to conduct an audit of how the funds were payed out by party members and state officials.

In an interview with state house correspondents, the president’s spokesman, Reuben Abati, described the report as “mischievous, false and embarrassing. It was just to paint Mr president and his party bad to the people; the handiwork our its opposition.. he said".

Ababti continued saying... “The President has not set up any committee as alleged in that story. It is also not true that the Presidency and the Peoples Democratic Party used state funds, or spent N2 trillion during the campaigns. The innuendoes are wrong-headed; the motives behind the story are suspicious.

READ: President Jonathan Addresses The Nation Ahead of Tomorrow's Election.

As Nigeria returns to the polls again tomorrow, I urge all registered voters to come out in mass and exercise their civic duty/civil right to vote.

I have instructed our security agents to fully facilitate the right of Nigerians to choose leaders of their choice at various state and local assembly levels by putting away devotion to a particular party or group but ensuring that we all vote in a secure environment. It is the sacrifice and mandate of our security agents to secure our nation, so we can all be confident to come out and vote our conscience all over the federation.

I urge contestants to respect the will of the people as we promote a new Nigeria that is a pacesetter and light bearer in the practice of democratic politics without bitterness.
 May God bless Nigeria.

President Goodluck Ebere Jonathan
