According to him, the PDP is ready to work for Nigeria.
“I want to commend INEC for a good job. As you can see everything is working perfectly and the elections are going on smoothly.

“We thank God for the very peaceful elections and I must say thank you to INEC for what we see at the moment and we say thank you to Mr President for ensuring that there is fairness in the elections.
