The PDP chieftain urged Nigerians to judge President Jonathan on the basis of his work.
“We have a president that is governing for the peace, welfare and good government of the country. We have a president that is making decisions and taking actions, including public appointments, in the public interest without regard to personal or other immaterial considerations. We have a president that is treating all people equally without permitting any person or corporation special access or influence. We have a president that is informing the public of all decisions and actions. President Jonathan is committed to the principles of accountability and good governance”
She advised the electorate to insist on the leader who has ability to provide service to the nation.
“We live in a country where there is respect for rule of law, unlimited environment for mutual conversation with the powers that be.

In her message for International Women's Day 2015, Olejeme urged women to make an informed decision when choosing the next president of the country.
“Nigeria is moving in the right direction. Women have received reasonable positions in government at the federal level. President Jonathan is promoting girl education in remote villages. We have the environment conducive to business investments and trade. We have policies that are expanding the economy. There is the rule of law in this country. The Jonathan led People’s Democratic Party government is committed to fiscal prudence” she said.
