has started pouring in from different
quarters.
The Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria and
members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance,
APGA, both have endorsed President Jonathan for a
second term.
At different rallies held in Port Harcourt and
Anambra State, both groups unanimously agreed
that one good term deserves another.
Thousands of transformation ambassadors gathered
at the Liberation Stadium in Port Harcourt Rivers
State to ask the President to re-contest the presidency
come 2015.
It was the third in the nationwide solidarity
campaign for the President's re-election bid in 2015,
organized by the Transformation Ambassador of
Nigeria.
With solidarity songs and placards displaying their
love, delegates from the South South region of
Nigeria took turns to climb the podium as they
pledged their allegiance to the man they call an agent
of change.
Millions also signed the big book to show their
seriousness in backing President Jonathan for
another term. So far over 4 million signatures from
the South-South region have been gathered.
Meanwhile, in Awka, the capital of Anambra State,
South-East Nigeria, it was a different gathering but
one that tells the same story.
Members of the All Progressives Grand Alliance,
APGA, gathered to rally the support of their members
to endorse President Jonathan for a second term.
The National Chairman of the party, Victor Umeh,
while speaking at the rally said, "Ever since 2011,
APGA has remained a strategic partner to President
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan in Nigeria.
"We have, as party leaders, at various times, spoken
unequivocally of our support for President Goodluck
Jonathan.
"In 2013, there was a governorship election in
Anambra State, and from what we have seen in
Nigeria under President Goodluck Jonathan's watch,
credible and free election is now the order of the
day…Democracy has come to stay in Nigeria."
The party, therefore, believes that one good term
deserves another.
"Looking at the political template in Nigeria today,
we are certain that President Goodluck Jonathan
needs to be re-elected for another 4 years in office,"
Umeh told the gathering.
