Briefing newsmen after the Federal Executive Council meeting on Wednesday, Minister of National Planning, Abubakar Suleiman, a member of Jonathan’s transition committee, said the council frowned at the terms of reference of the in-coming government and warned that the President’s magnanimity should not be construed as cowardice. He said the council agreed that Dr Goodluck Jonathan remains the President of the country until May 29 and the in-coming government should avoid creating a parallel government.
Justifying its claim that the Jonathan administration was plotting to hinder a smooth transition of power, APC said: “While the outgoing government had earlier issued a memo to all ministries, departments and agencies to make sure their handover notes are ready by April 20, the same government has now reversed itself and said the handover notes will not be ready until May 14.
“With the new date, the Buhari transition committee will have little or no time to take a thorough look at the handover notes or seek clarification on knotty issues, effectively handing it (Buhari Transition Committee) a fait accompli as far as the handover notes are concerned. This does not augur well for a smooth transition and gives the impression that the outgoing administration is trying to hide something. “By its dilly-dallying on the date for the readiness of the handover notes from the MDAs, the administration’s posturing that it is ready to hand over has been exposed as nothing but a smokescreen.”
Responding yesterday to President Jonathan’s accusation, the APC in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said it was becoming apparent that the Jonathan administration will not fully cooperate with the incoming government, despite its public posturing in that regard.
The party also described as “an act of hostility and a patently-misplaced aggression the unnecessary vituperation against the incoming Buhari administration by the Jonathan government, ostensibly because of the terms of reference of the Buhari transition committee but in reality part of an orchestrated plot to sabotage the transition.” It rejected the continued blackmail by the Jonathan administration as a result of President Jonathan’s concession of defeat, wondering whether the concession, gracious as it was, has now become a shield for all wrong doings. The party said: “We are sick and tired of being blackmailed by the Jonathanians.
Gen. Buhari won the March 28th Presidential elections fair and square, having satisfied both constitutional and other statutory requirements. “We have no apology for our victory, and the concession of defeat – while it may have increased the political stock of President Jonathan – has by no means diminished the historic and emphatic victory of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress.”

We need genuine hand over not a headBoy hand over ( collect n take)
Corrupt government and leader
God pass una PDP

APC is like a child always complaining. Seems that this power is too big for them to handle.
We've come a long way on this quest for change, they should try manage this GEJ administration which is almost done.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
Buhari did not wi. Smoothly. He won cos underage voters voted for him, secondly he wasn't voted in all the region's but at least Jonathan got votes in some northern region and Ekiti,some Nigerians would regret voting for Buhari and the party called APC soon
APC alarmists, everyday one thing or the other.
APC take it easy,your. Quest for. Power is too much
"MAMA PEACE: "Ebele! Ebele!! Ebele!!! wake up! how many tines wen I call you"??
GEJ: "Na 2 times nah".
MAMA PEACE: "Ewu! Na 3 tines. So na so you wan take miscount ya votes abi"?
"Anyway, d tin wen I wan tell you b say, if you lose this eleshon, just
know dat ayam no longer ya wife again"! "Kpakam"!
APC won't let us rest despite the fact that they won the election. Buhari n his party re already acting like they re already running things. Lai Muhammad pls shut up already. GEJ is still our president till 29th of May. APC n their Bipolar sickness
Ubanagum
Abeg, I am tired of their drama. May 29th should jx come n go already
Would all this stop already?
Alh LIAR mohamed.
Now Jonah wants to spoil his reputation again *thamixbreed *
With all the crazy appointments left right & centre.He really is messing himself up & preparing himself for a big fall ahead.
This party too dey complain all to heat the polity... Na Jona go allow una rig elections...
Are they still at this? Elections are over, these idiots should act right, do what ought to be done and let us breath as a country and move forward.
The APC are too hungry for power, in less than a month it will all be their's why can't they just chill! They really are acting like a parallel govt.
APC should Jst stop wth! I agree with jonathan on this one. It's not even Buhari's time yet like chill. Someone would think he was president alteady. Even at May 14, they still have enough time. So why is APC so paranoid thinking everyone is like them? Smh!
They accused jonathan of planning one thing or the other since election started, and none of it has even panned out. Abeg they should go to bed.
This man is another FFK. Always heating the polity and creating unnecessary rancour
Why these APC guys acting like the tortoise who once rescued by a traveler from a stench-filled pit began to complain incessantly about the smell on the outside? In just a matter of days APC will start to chop its own share of the national cake as they like. So, why all these shaking & trembling now? Abi na so the thirst take reach?
This man is another FFK. Always heating the polity and creating unnecessary rancour
Abeg APC enuf of all dese brouhaha already!!!....kilode gan??
Abeg wee u keep kwayet..linda go n sleep n rest
If not that nigerians ar tired of dis administration, buhari never won d election fair and square, it was Jagadized.
APC . Una too complain abeg
F*ck the APC. Apart from people not dying cos Buhari won, things will get one. And since they penetrate the media, even if it is one scholarship position they have for a student, they will make it look like another 3rd mainland bridge has been #justobserve
these APCriminals are just too used to being the opposition, their mindset is so small that they can't even handle being in power. They've won the elections but are still making baseless unsolicited accusations.. i'm sure they would blame their failure on PDP when they resume.
Apc nd stupid accusation. Jona has conceded defeat, now he wants to hinder smooth handover
Even d accusation sounds stupid. Una no. Beget any good agenda for us. Na so so accusation frm. D outgoing adminstration. D way u pple r rhaving, I wont b surprise if u finally achieve notin. Be focused, for once and leave jona alone. D way u pple r rushibg to d seat is d way u might rush out. Mind u to b an opposition party is very easy dan d ruling party. Continue accusing and blaming till ur tenure sweeps away without any thing to show for it. Dega sabo shuga ba nkasha. Duca n nigeria suna jera changing.. unu jiri ya wayo oo. Taniska........
Lai Mohammed go sleep! This constant lamentation of yours is beginning to get on my nerves... We all know that this present government were too corrupt.. For the fact the man conceded defeat is enough to overlook certain mismanagement, and let him leave there in peace... I'm beginning to regret voting APC...its low trying to rub the victory over your opponent's face..when he has conceded defeat.. Allow the man leave with some dignity
Apc are fools and useless. Always looking for trouble. Always threatening Nigerians with one thing or the other. That was how they accused Goodluck of rigging the elections and yet they won, now they are saying that Goodluck does not want to handover, I think those Apc old men are mentally derailed.
Nna eh
29th May should pls come αи∂ go...so person go hear word for this ppl
All dese their stories is getting too much jor
Moye says so via BB Passport...Courtesy LIB....
Accusations upon counter accusations. Can they all jst chill already. This Buhari's administration is prolly going to be a problematic one. The writings are there on d wall

APC - a party of propaganda!
I hate this APC people. They are trouble shooters
I don't like the way some set of people like this Lai Mohammed is mouthing up and down. He is talking too much and needs to be cautioned. What is his own self? Is this the way they will rule this country. I just doubt. They are gearing towards tearing this nation apart. I doubt whether they can keep this nation together with the way they are going . Lai the errand boy of apc should be careful and stop being flippant with his mouth.
Complains everywhere, abeg let the countdown begin already. Linda take note!

I'm beginning to hate APC do they always have to condemn PDP? With this attitude I see PDP returning in 2019
Dear incoming govt, your own don too much. We are tired already, wait for your time na! Abi was it a crime to conduct election early. You are busy receiving envoys and acting like president, forming transition committee. Truth be told you actually have no constitutional right to do that, you have not been sworn in, so you have no capacity to act yet, just take a chill pill already.
this is not good, we had an almost smooth election, they should have a smooth transition and stop attacking themselves, both men have phones right? squash this thing and move on, their dogs are killing their rep
APC should chill, is becoming too much for them.
Do the think we like them? Many of the votes the got, were anti GEJ rather than proAPC or Buhari. They have Four years to prove themselves or
APC and their false rumours! So hungry to occupy that hot seat! To whom much is given, much is expected!
Looks like Jonathan wants to chop cane before he leaves. The world will unite in caning him if he is not careful.
This Jona or what do they call him should pls get out of that place abeg and stop whining. In fact let them bring d date forward like May 2nd so we can be rid of him ASAP. Tired of seeing and reading about him and his sycophants on my light screen
I know they've been busy planning evil
Ds APC even after winning d election u are still troubling d peace of ds country
Hmmmmmmm, naija
APC should take a chill pill already. They have special talent in blame games and accusations. This handover should come n go already n let's see how they will run.
Buhari and co Pls leave Jona alone! What do you guys want from him? He has been as humble as he can be. Leave him alone. You trying to bring him down will only bring him glory
APC Abeg park well! What else do u guys want! Always complaining take over and start working ur magic, let me see who u I'll blame again
These stupid secretary .....kant you guys wait till after ma 29? U busy setting up different committee . When you are not yet the d president ..stupid Apc . Who even asked for your apology .
Jonathan's concession has diminished Buharis win cos he didn't call for violence. Buhari has no value for human life. So its better to kill people just cos you say you are anti corruption? Money can be replaced but can life be replace?. THey are not on the same level no matter how apc tries to brainwash us.. Jonathan has more intergrity whilst buhari is just a blood letting , "mouth changing" desperado.
let hope for the best... Team@seybyth
We knew from day one that the APC are a bunch of aggressive and pathological complainers/protesters. With them the transition can never be smooth but the burning question is "what are these impossible demands?". Secondly, why can't the APC wait for proper hand over notes to be prepared?. Why are they in such a hurry.
APC should be advised! This is a very arrogant and reckless statement coming from them! It is not everything that they have to show aggressiveness and hostility! There is a Nigerian adage that says - "na small small them dey take catch monkey" They should be smart to toe the line with this present government and peacefully complete the transition; thereafter, when they are now in power, they can do/probe whatever they want to do/probe!
I have said it before that Goodluck Jonathan is still the CinC and still wields vast power! He can still do and undo this country! If, God forbid, a demon decides to possess him, he can decide to plunge this country into deep crisis! He can even decide to hand over to the military and not APC! If that happens what all these APC rabble rousers (especially Liar Mohammad) can do is either run back to their tents or run to exile!
Apc members what's all this? Una no go let us rest? Una too like trouble and u guys are so desperate 4 power. GOSH! in few weeks time u guys are taking over yet una blood dey hot like this.. only God knows what could have happened assuming Apc lost dis election. . With d way they are going Buhari might move into d villa b4 d end of this week o.. make una chill nah. 29th May is almost here haba!
APC should be patient 29th is almost here
Geez. I luv the last paragraph.
Enough both parties. Let us hear word nau. God remains alpha and omega.
This Apc members are just irritating!
Enough both parties. Let us hear word nau. God remains alpha and omega.
What are they on about? Apc can we live? U people are disturbing d masses.. not like u have our interest at heart.. u all are going there 2 pack ur own money.. all of una be d same with pdp.. una interest na money.. so please disturbing our peace..

Can't wait for May 29.
These APC people are Mad!
Am tired of this man, the worst president so far. Mr otueke do and go
Do you comment from your nose?
The strongest democracies flourish from frequent and lively debate, but they endure when people of every background and belief find a way to set aside smaller differences in service of a greater purpose.
APC show some maturity in everything you guys are doing and stop saying all.
This APC sha! Na only God knows your intentions for tthis country but your evil agenda shall not affect the innocents. You guys are looking for trouble where there's none. That Buhari won the election is not an end but a means to an end. Nigerians are listening and watching.
APC pls grow up.
God pls fast forward the next 8 yrs for us, bcos I hate Buhari govt already
APC will blame everyone except themselves.
Stupid APC
BELIEVE APC BELIEVE ANYTHING. POWER HUNGRY LEECHES.
Some pep r just clueless..linda,pls be more professional to ur job..the game is not over untilll may 29th..goodluck is a hypocrite...
