2015: One tenure is not enough for Jonathan – Akpabio, Ali


A former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Ahmadu Ali, on Tuesday declared that Nigerians are strongly behind President Jonathan’s reelection.

The party chieftain stated this at a national rally of over 7,000 pro Jonathan groups under the umbrella of Goodluck Support Groups (GSG), organised by the National Coordinator, Prof. Rufai Ahmed.

Ali, who was chairman of the rally, stated that Jonathan remained the best option for the country.

He said, “In spite of evil machinations, Nigeria has remained undivided; we shall remain one and `we dey kampe’ and the Jonathan administration has provided meaningful, feasible ideas to sustain democracy.

“He has invested in the youth and developed national consciousness among them. The nation’s GDP has risen from 169 billion dollars in 2013 to 283 billion dollars today.

“Food importation has reduced from trillions to the region of hundreds of thousands of dollars; Nigeria is the number one destination for foreign direct investment in Africa; our oil is witnessing a projection. Come rain, as it has fallen now or come sunshine, we stand behind Goodluck.’’

Also speaking at the rally, Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom said “everyone keeps saying I’ve performed well and that there is uncommon transformation in my state. I didn’t do it in a tenure; I am in my second tenure.

“For Nigeria’s total transformation, one tenure is not enough. He has put measures in place to stop gas flaring, decided to address the problem of the north-east by building schools for almajiri.

“He has been the most distracted but the most focused president, has faced Ebola squarely and made Nigeria the biggest economy in Africa’’, Akpabio said.
