The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe has labeled opposition of the ruling government led by Goodluck Jonathan as noisemakers.

Speaking to journalists in Abuja, he commented on the Presidency’s accusation against the opposition of carrying out a campaign of calumny against President Goodluck Jonathan by presenting him as incompetent and clueless.

“Achievements and competence are always not judged by noise making, propaganda and deception which are the hallmarks of the activities of the Nigerian opposition.” He said.

Mr Okupe also rejected the statement that the present administration has left the country worse than it met it stating that the opposition is responsible for such false claims.

“The repeated false claims by the opposition that the president is incompetent, is not only untrue and obviously cannot be supported by facts but it is also part of the oppositions’ grand strategy to present Government as not being ineffective so as to advance their own selfish cause.”

He also called on Nigerians to ignore such “wild and baseless comments” and support President Goodluck who he described as a “silent and effective achiever”.

He added that what remains are part of works in progress which, hopefully, will be resolved before the end of 2014.
