President Goodluck Jonathan has said that talking about interim government is treasonable because interim government is not in an institution and that is why people should not talk about it.
Jonathan said this during his campaign in Daura, Katsina State, the home town of All Progressives Candidate, Gen. Mohammadu Buhari (rtd.).
Jonathan said “Let me use this opportunity to make a statement again because sometimes I read in the papers of people talking about interim government.
“Even yesterday (Friday), some people were making pronouncements that some people are planning interim government.
“And I will say that anybody who is planning or who is linked to anything that has to do with interim government must be dealt with according to the law. It is treasonable and government will not allow it.
He also highlighted the achievements of his administration while assuring the people that if re-elected, he will do much more.
“So, if people are arrested and being prosecuted, people should not say government is haunting people.
“There is no reason why people should talk about interim government that is not known to our constitution. It is treasonable and I will advise Nigerians to keep away from it.”
