A member representing Sagbama-Ekeremor Federal Constituency in the House Representatives, Dr. Stella Dorgu, Thursday saluted President Goodluck Jonathan for his uncommon show of sportsmanship after losing the Saturday’s election to Gen. Muhammadu, Buhari (retd).
Dorgu who spoke in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, further hailed Buhari for his success and appealed to him to be magnanimous in victory.
She said the President by conceding defeat immediately demonstrated his love and commitment to the unity of Nigeria.
Dorgu said President Jonathan had made the Ijaw proud and changed people’s negative perception against the ethnic group.
She said the posture of the President had paved the way for a peaceful transition for the continuity of democracy in the country.
“I salute his courage and magnanimity. I also salute Governor Seriake Dickson for keeping the Bayelsa PDP family together.
“We will now enter another phase of political development that will make us stronger strategically. We need to work in unity for good governance in Bayelsa State and Nigeria as a whole,”she said.
