    While Samsung's success has been largely attributed to their

    unconventionally large displays, a new trend may have caught on in the

    Dr Bello spoke on the affirmative that the party would be heading to the tribunal

    “Sure! The party petitioned. Don’t forget. So the party will follow through the petition. There are rules for this. The law is there. The result was declared on the 1st of April, I think. We will follow the due process. Like the president (Jonathan) said, ‘If you have any grievances, follow due process and the due process in this instance is to go to the tribunal.”he said

  • NEWS: Orubebe Apologizes For His Behaviour Yesterday, Says He Regrets It

    By William Oyo-Ita, 1 April 2015 11: 33

    Former Niger Delta Affairs Minister Elder Godsday Orubebe has apologised for his behaviour at the collation centre in Abuja yesterday morning. Speaking with reporters last night, the PDP party agent, who held up proceedings and used abusive words on Jega, said he regretted his action and asked Nigerian to forgive his behaviour. 

    ”Election is a passionate thing and I really regret what took place this morning. I was unnecessarily pushed by Jega to get to that level. I want to apologise particularly to young Nigerians that look up to take politics as a career to say that what happened was
    not intended to cause them any embarrassment. 

    To Nigerians generally, I regret my actions as even an elder in the church, and a leader, the young men expected to see a lot from me and I believe that if there was any disappointment they got from me I apologize to Nigerians and to the youths of this country.”

    On President Jonathan conceding defeat, Orubebe said:

    “Two things are in place. The president is the president of everybody. As a statesman and as a president; he has done what he should do.”

    On whether the PDP will challenge the result, he said:

    “I cannot decide for the PDP. It  is a large family. We were sent on an errand to come back to report. We will go and report to the party and the party will take the necessary action it has to take. 

    You remember what happened in Ekiti’s  governorship election when the governor congratulated his opponent and the party went back and said this is what they have seen. The candidate is not the party, he is a candidate and he has acted very well as a statesman, and as the president, the father of all. For us, we are agents to be here to see what transpired here and give report to them.”
