The Presidency has dismissed a call from the camp of the opposition on President Jonathan to resign, describing such as devilish and ill motivated, coming from those it described as agents of destabilization in Nigeria.

The Presidency said Nigerians are aware that nothing better could come from those behind the call because the are desperate politicians who had lost focus and relevance, a reason they have been clinging to a plot to destabilise the country, just to reap from it.

Special Adviser to the President Political Parties who said this in a statement, said, “The opposition is troubled while members contend with travails. They had better be advised to face their troubles and travails while leaving the President out of them.

According to the President’s adviser, nothing less should be expected from a group of discredited, directionless, selfish and desperate turn coats who pretend often to have the magic wand to brace Nigeria like never before.

He said the opposition knew it had lost out in the modern day political race in Nigeria having divested itself of the grassroots support as a group so replete with disoriented managers and members with personality disorder.

His words: “They should leave the President alone and begin to address the challenges that have portrayed them as strange bed fellows with irreconcilable differences and a group of politicians who had lost touch with the reality.

“President Jonathan has the mandate to conduct free and fair elections in 2015. His past exploits in election conduct speak volumes of his sincerity and preparedness to make the difference. If the opposition is desirous of making impact in 2015, it should leverage on the good template already set by the President by campaigning to win converts rather than holding on to the rueful plot of pulling down the man who means well for the country.

“Nigerians know the difference, and have been demonstrating overwhelming support for the President at every point in time. Such overwhelming support Nigerians have for the president cannot just be wished a way by any opposition, because the President worked hard to earn the love by Nigerians.”
