| President Goodluck Jonathan |
The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) has described as a travesty of democracy for President
Goodluck Jonathan to recognise Governor Jonah Jang of Plateau State as the
chairman of the Nigerian Governors' Forum (NGF).
The party said it is smacks of political opportunism for the
President to show his bias for the faction of NGF led by Jang even though he
lost to Governor Chibuike Amaechi of Rivers State in what has been widely
acknowledged as a free, fair and transparent NGF poll.
In a statement issued on Sunday by its National Publicity
Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the President's ill-advised
decision has shown that he has little or no respect for democracy, and will
stop at nothing to jettison time-tested ideals on the altar of political opportunism.
