The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr Olisa Metuh, made the commendation in a statement issued in Abuja on Friday.

According to him, the ruling is also a victory to the nation’s democracy.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the court had ruled that Jonathan, as a Nigerian, has the constitutional right to seek re-election in 2015 on PDP's platform.

It held that Jonathan was in his first term, which commenced on May 29, 2011 and was therefore, free to seek a second term in the 2015 if he so desires.

Metuh maintained that the court’s ruling had freed the nation from "the shackles of intimidation and harassment’’ by some desperate politicians.

According to him, the judiciary has reaffirmed the freedom and right of every Nigerian to seek for any elective office under the constitution.

"It has laid to rest the unnecessary debate on whether or not the president is constitutionally eligible to seek re-election in 2015.
