Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party in Edo State have described President Goodluck Jonathan as an exceptional leader who should be given another four years to continue his good work.
The Edo PDP Chairman, Chief Dan Orbih, while speaking with newsmen in Monday in Benin, affirmed that “nobody is contesting President Jonathan’s second endorsement”, adding that, “PDP members have agreed on his performance and sincerity.”
Similarly, former PDP candidate for Edo State governorship seat, Gen. Charles Airhiavbere said the Jonathan’s contribution in area of grass-root development made him to win his way into the hearts of many PDP members and Nigerians at large.
“You agree with me that when a leader brings unity and development, irrespective of the terrain and party affiliation, you will want to trust and choose him for continuation”, Airhiavbere said.
In his own view, Matthew Iduoriyekemwen, the former Edo NDDC Commissioner, said “President Jonathan is not just a leader, but one who has complemented the efforts of the past administrations in the area of infrastructure development”.
Also speaking, Sen. Ehigie Uzamere said, “PDP campaigned on quality of a leader, what to look at when making a choice and how to vote, for the vote to be valid.
“Jonathan stands for quality; he has performed and still performing; we are just comfortable with him for the second time.”
He, however, warned against those selling their votes, adding that the choice of their leaders would determine the development in their communities.
“Do not vote for imported candidates who do not know the meaning of unity and development but somebody who knows and feels the pains of what you are in need of, or lacking like Jonathan.
“Cast your vote according to your conscience not for sentiment; and by so doing, development will extend to your door steps”, he advised.
