The South-West PDP Presidential Contact and Mobilisation Committee, has once again hailed President Goodluck Jonathan for conceding defeat despite the noticeable irregularities in the just concluded presidential poll.

It said the development had allowed Nigeria to remain united and prevent outbreak of post election violence.

The group called on defected members to return and rebuild the party, since the All Progressives Congress had boldly declared that there was no space for them in the party.

The party committee also vowed to resist any attempt to impeach the Ekiti State governor, Ayo Fayose.

The committee stated this after a closed-door meeting held on Friday in Ado Ekiti.

A statement read by Olabode George averred that the PDP will never allow anybody to oust the governor because of his loyalty to the party.

It also lauded Fayose for resisting intimidation and remaining dogged in the battle against impeachment by the APC, encouraging him and the Ondo State Governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko, to continue to work together.

George said, “People like President Jonathan are very rear to come by. He accepted a flawed election for Nigeria to stand united. Can those who have not been sworn in and have started threatening to impeach a PDP governor do this?

“PDP lost the elections because of unresolved issues and due to the handiwork of enemies within, coupled with the conspiracy by INEC Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, who wisely made Nigerians to have the impression that the election was free and fair when it was not.

Speaking on his impeachment travail, Fayose said, “I am a member of the PDP and nobody can harass me because of my political belief.”
