Opposition parties, APC, on Sunday took a swipe at the governors that rejected the election of Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi as Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum as bad losers.

They lambasted the PDP and President Goodluck Jonathan over the rejection, accusing them of desperation to win the 2015 election at all costs.

“The bilious discontent arising from the elections for the new chairman of the NGF bears the imprimatur of the Presidency. The PDP and indeed the Presidency are bad losers. But Nigerians are watching. They are not docile and will, when the time comes, give the Presidency and his party the shocker of their lives,” said CPC spokesman, Rotimi Fasakin.

Also, the ACN, in a statement in Abuja by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said that the anti-Amaechi governors were undoubtedly acting the script written for them by the presidency and the leadership of the PDP.

“The Presidency and the ruling party have lost control of themselves. They are bound to also lose control of the nation, democratically, in 2015. Make no mistake about it,” the party said.

It said the message that the Presidency is sending to the nation through the governors’ forum election was that the outcome of the 2015 elections would only be valid if they [the PDP] are the winners.

“If an election involving only 35 governors can generate so much controversy and threaten to overheat the polity, what will happen when millions of Nigerians vote in 2015? Is this how President Goodluck Jonathan, who is the godfather of the losing governors, has been sanitising the electoral process as he has been enthusing?”

“The show of shame by the bad losers supporting Governor Jonah Jang, of course at the behest of the presidency, is an extension of the threat that has been issued by some rabble-rousers that it is either Jonathan for 2015 or there will be no Nigeria as we know it.
