Former President Goodluck Jonathan has attributed the failure of heavens to open in Abuja on Saturday during the non-elective convention of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to God’s belief in the party.

Jonathan was one of the speakers at the event, and was accompanied to the podium by his former deputy, Mr. Namadi Sambo, and some serving and ex-governors.
For sometime now, Abuja has been recording rainfall. Coincidentally, the federal capital territory was dry on Saturday. But the former president believed there was more to the weather than meets the eyes.
“Nobody should intimidate the PDP. I believe in the PDP. Even God Himself believes in the PDP. Today is August 12, look at the weather. God wants us to celebrate in the PDP, that’s why there is no rain.
“It is important we manage our differences responsibly, with an eye on the divine role of the PDP to lead Nigeria to greatness. Let us rededicate ourselves to playing by the rules,” Jonathan told the party members gathered at the convention.
