One of the major pro- Jonathan support groups rooting for his re- election, the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria TAN disclosed Wednesday that rather than organise a rally in the North East which is slated for this week Saturday, it would instead put in place a prayer session for Nigeria because of the security challenge following the activities of members of Boko Haram.
According to TAN in a statement by its Director of Communications, Udenta O. Udenta, top clerics from the two main religions in the country, Christianity and Islam from within and outside the zone would be mobilized to Gombe, the Gombe state capital for prayers to God to put an end to the problem.
Meanwhile, Udenta O. Udenta has challenged the National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC to a public debate where they would face each other and brainstorm on national issues, adding, “Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria TAN after due consideration of the developments in the polity as it relates to the continued deliberate misconception of the its activities and the mindless attacks on it, has on Wednesday challenged the main opposition party All Progressive Congress APC’s spokesman Alhaji Lai Mohammed to a public debate with its spokes person Dr. Udenta . o. Udenta to discuss issues of national importance.
According to TAN, the challenge has become imperative to lay to rest the opposition party’s bell arching over the ongoing nationwide rallies of TAN, adding, ” the debate is to enable the two bodies, APC and TAN present to the public their various positions on raging political issues for their discernment. TAN said that as an advocacy group it would not shy away from its responsibilities just because some political nihilists are intent on sowing chaos and disorder in the polity.
” The feedback from TAN monitoring system shows that Majority of Nigerians are happy with our activities going by the turn out and enthusiasm that greeted four out of our scheduled six zonal rallies.
“The zonal rally scheduled for the North East this Saturday will take a unique shape different from the previous ones to reflect the prevailing situation in the troubled zone. The Saturday rally, the statement continued will be more of a prayer session for peace to return to the zone and indeed Nigeria.
“Top clerics from the two main religions in the country, Christianity and Islam from within and outside the zone would be mobilized to Gombe, the Gombe state capital for supplications to our creator for an end to the hostilities, prayer for members of the nation’s armed forces who are putting their lives in the line of fire to keep the nation safe, and distribution of relief materials to victims of terrorism and other internally displaced persons.”
