The chairman of President Goodluck Jonathan fund raising committee, Prof. Jerry Gana, has said Jonathan will defeat any other candidate because he is one of the best presidents in the world.
Gana who helped Jonathan raise N21.2 billion at the Peoples Democratic Party fund raising dinner held at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Saturday believes that Jonathan’s achievements are enough to give him a second term in office.
“PDP has advantage because it has done very well in its 15 years in power at the centre. Besides, our presidential candidate is very good and is one of the best in the world in terms of delivery of democracy dividends.
“But doing well or having good candidates is not enough; we need to tell the electorate what we have done as a party.
He stated that though the party had done well under Jonathan, members must campaign and communicate his achievements to the electorate.
Gana said: “the 2015 elections will be very competitive. Do not take it for granted. We must never underestimate the opponent.
“We must endeavour to effectively communicate our achievements and candidates to the people; the elections must be issue-based and the PDP is noted for that.”
Gana warned the leadership of the PDP at all levels against imposition of candidates on Nigerians.
