Ex militants in the Niger Delta yesterday urged the Northern political leaders to bury their ambition over 2015 presidential polls and instead support President Goodluck Jonathan to fulfill his developmental blueprint for the entire country.
They specifically called on the Nigerian voting public to be weary of those they term ”expired leaders” who are masquerading as progressives..
The ex militants under the aegis of Third Phase Amnesty Camps Committee (TPACC) declared that the Northern leaders for now have no business eyeing Aso Rock. “They should wait until 2019 after Jonathan had completed his second term.”
Speaking in Yenagoa at the end of their meeting, the chairman of the group, Preye John aka, Gbikigbiki said President Jonathan had done creditably well in spite of the security challenges caused by the Boko Haram insurgency and as such deserved a second tenure.
“The northern leaders should bury their face in shame for the country’s woes having ruled for more than 35 years,” he said and urged those spoiling for war to put Nigeria above their personal interest.
“The South has over the years supported the North and this is the time for the North to support the South,” he said adding that ex-militants would soon embarked on a peaceful rally in the nations capital to rally support for Jonathan to contest the 2015.
On the newly registered APC, he said, “the party is no threat to Jonathan or the PDP.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
