LEADERS of the South-south geopolitical zone who met yesterday under the aegis of the South- South Peoples Assembly (SSPA) in Effurun, Delta State agreed to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan to run for a second term in 2015.

Nearly all the six states of the region were duly represented.

The leaders have not met since the Calabar declaration of 2004 when the region was clamouring for the Presidency to be zoned to it.

Yesterday, the speakers were unanimous about Jonathan’s re-contesting in 2015.

They therefore endorsed Jonathan to complete his eight years tenure when they echoed ‘yes’ to a call by Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark if they wanted Jonathan in 2015.

The convener, Clark said the northern political leaders were being unduly antagonistic to the south-south especially since President Jonathan assumed office in 2011.

He specifically noted that some leaders of the north, like Alhaji Lawal Kaita had threatened prior to the 2011 elections that unless a northerner emerged as president, they would make the country ungovernable and more so had recently threatened that except a northerner succeeds Jonathan, there would be “no Nigeria.”

He said that the threats by the northern leaders was fuelling the insurgency by Boko Haram, stressing that until these northern leaders rose above sectional interest and the governors lived up to the challenges of insecurity, the threat to the northern economy and peace of the country, the quest for peaceful co-existence and development would remain futile.

Clark said that the North was doing everything possible to shut down the South-South hence they were calling for the abrogation of the 2004 Act which ended the onshore/offshore dichotomy so as to cripple the South-South region.

The leaders discussed the convening of the national conference of all ethnic nationalities in the country to trash out issues of national co-existence.
