Oil magnate and billionaire, Chief
Arthur Eze, has declared that the re-election bid of President Goodluck
Jonathan was not subject to any debate.
He made this declaration in Abuja
during a meeting of the Elders’ Advisory Council of Goodluck Support Group.
Another businessman and owner of
Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company Limited, Innocent Chukwuma, at the
occasion donated 24 vehicles to Goodluck Support Group, with a promise to do
more in the coming days.
Eze, a Peoples Democratic Party
chieftain therefore urged all Nigerians to support Jonathan in fulfilling his
political aspiration.
He argued that some regions in the
country had already been given the chance to produce Presidents of Nigeria.
According to him, it is only fair to
allow President Jonathan complete his eight years in office before ceding power
to other parts of the country that have not produced any president since
independence.
He said, “Goodluck Jonathan must
complete his second term. Nobody will take it from him. After his eight years
in office, another region can take over. The South-West has done its eight
years. Some parts of North have done their own. Jonathan has to complete his
own term.”
Also speaking, a former Deputy
Senate President and chairman, Elders Advisory Council of GSG, Ibrahim Mantu,
urged supporters of the President to hit the ground running, adding that
securing the re-election of President Jonathan was a tax that must be paid.
He said, “Now that Mr. President has
picked his nomination form, it is time to hit the ground running. It is time to
come all out and ensure that we campaign for the re-election bid of President
Jonathan.”
The Special adviser to President
Jonathan on Inter-party Affairs, Senator Ben Obi also said that he was out to
give his unrelenting support to the re-election bid of the president.
“I stand in full support of this
group as part and parcel of promoting the re-election bid of President
Jonathan. This organisation brought a new lease of life when it endorsed
President Jonathan. Our duty as aides to Mr. President is to mobilise and
ensure that this organisation continues to move forward,” Obi said.
