29 States’ Delegates To Vote For Jonathan – Tafida
If all the political permutations now going on the President Goodluck Jonathan’s camp are anything to go by, the President is sure of sleeping well because delegates from 29 states, that cut across the six geo-political zones of the country, have declared their total support for his presidential aspiration in 2011, particularly his bid to secure the flag of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
The breakdown of the Pro-Jonathan states, according to the Director-General of his campaign organisation, Ambassador Dalhatu Tafida, shows that five are from the North-East, six from the North-Central, six from South-West, two from South-East and three from the South-South including Bayelsa State.
Ambassador Dalhatu Tafida, who stated this in Yenagoa while addressing pro-Jonathan groups in Yenagoa said in all the states visited, the resolution was unanimous as the promise of a block vote was based on the agreement with the vision of President Goodluck Jonathan to complete the tenure of his late boss and propel the country into a height of change and development.
Dalhatu Tafida, who was accompanied by members of the campaign organisation including the South-South Coordinator and Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Prince Chibudom Nwuche, told the crowd of supporters and the Governor Timipre Sylva led executive council, that the nation was lucky to have Goodluck, as God has ordained him to occupy the Presidency in 2011.
He said, “Nigeria is lucky and I don’t want to equate Goodluck Jonathan to Bayelsa alone because he is not a President of a community, or a state, or geographical area or regional but of all the nation. God put him there as President for him to occupy the seat. The President told them to judge him by what he can do and not by the area he comes from and he has started doing what he promised.”
“This man only asked that he be allowed to complete the tenure which his boss left behind uncompleted. That is normal. He decided not to use his instrument of office to campaign and muscle people but to establish the campaign office and visit each states to beg them for vote and all the 29 states visited have assured us of total vote come primaries of our party.”
