In a press statement released by the Special Adviser to the President on Media & Publicity, Reuben Abati, reveals that President Goodluck Jonathan, is not comfortable with his 2015 campaign banner which is being floated everywhere in the Abuja metro polis with the inscription, ‘#Bring Back Jonathan 2015.’
President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has directed that the #Bring Back Jonathan 2015 signs and banners around Abuja which he and many Nigerians find offensive and repugnant be brought down immediately.
According to the press release, “President Jonathan wholly shares the widely expressed view that the signs which were put up without his knowledge or approval are a highly insensitive parody of the #Bring Back Our Girls hash tag.”
It further read that, “While President Jonathan appreciates the enthusiastic show of support for his administration by a broad range of stakeholders, he condemns the #Bring Back Jonathan 2015 signs which appear to make light of the very serious national and global concern for the abducted Chibok girls.”
The President assured all Nigerians and the international community that his administration remains fully engaged with efforts to rescue the abducted girls.
