President Jonathan's campaign team has reacted to the
controversial Ad by Ayo Fayose..The Director of Media and Publicity of the PDP
presidential campaign organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, said
"Governor, Ayo Fayose is a distinguish leader of our
party. A democratically elected governor and someone we have immense respect
and affection for and he released this advert in his own name. That represents
his own personal opinion which he is entitled to. That is what I can tell you
on our part as the Presidential campaign organisation. It does not represent
the opinion of the Presidential Campaign Organisation or indeed the President,
it is his opinion which he is entitled to. "I have
spoken with him and we respect him but for any body to suggest that this is the
position of the presidential campaign organisation or President Goodluck
Jonathan, that will be most unfair. If we wanted to say something like that, we
will say it without any kind of apology but of course, .. but of course we will
never say that because we believe in the sanctity of life and age is not a
function of how long you will live ..it is important that we recognize the fact
that age is not an indication of how long somebody will live"
