President Goodluck Jonathan has distanced himself from the campaign posters declaring his interest for the 2015 elections that flooded Abuja in the early hours of New Year Day.
He described those behind the posters as people “doing their own thing” and not acting as his agents.
The campaign posters, announcing Jonathan’s readiness to contest in 2015, greeted Nigerians in Abuja, at the dawn of the New Year.
But the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, told State House reporters said that the President is focused on delivering on his mandate for Nigerians and would not be distracted by the politics of 2015.
According to Abati: ‘Those pasting the posters are trying to express their own view.
“The President had stated that he would talk about the presidency from 2014.
“Those doing these do not have the consent of the President.
“What is most important now is for the President to deliver on his electioneering promise to Nigerians and not to embark on the pasting of posters.
