The First Lady Dame Patience
Jonathan, on Wednesday in Ikom, Cross
River, enjoined Nigerians to re-elect her
husband as President of the most populous
black race in Africa.
Patience, who made the call at the PDP rally
in Ikom, Cross River Central Senatorial
District, said her husband deserved re-
election for a second term.
She said she was in Ikom in continuation of
the PDP nationwide women rally to solicit
votes for her husband.
The first lady, who spoke shortly Jonat
inaugurating the 6 000-capacity Ikom
Township Stadium, said Jonathan had so far
performed well to earn a second term in
office.
“I came to thank you for keeping to your
promise in 2011 to vote for my husband. And
I want to use this opportunity to appeal to
you to you to repeat the same thing in the
March 28 presidential election.”

“My husband, during his first tenure, has
performed tremendously and has impacted
positively on the people especially women. “
“My husband promised to give women 35 per
cent appointment in line with the Affirmative
Action and he did. Now we are in 2015, and
he will do more for the nation and women in
particular."
She listed achievements made by the PDP-
led Federal Government to include
improvement in health care delivery where
infant mortality rate had dropped drastically.
The first lady said her husband’s
administration established federal
universities and instituted development
programmes to empower women and youths.
She said Jonathan’s administration should
also be credited for building no fewer than
125 Almajiri schools to take kids off the
street and give them hope as well as
improvement in transportations and energy
sectors.
She said Nigeria’s participation in sports
improved significantly on the continent and
beyond during her husband’s first term which
also saw the blossoming of Nollywood.
The first lady, therefore, enjoined them not
to be cajoled by those who claim to be
agents of change.
“When they were in office, they did not
implement the change they are canvassing
now.”

“Those promising you change did not
recognise nor regard women when they were
in office and it is better you follow a man
who has promised to do more for the nation
and sworn to keep it.”
“You have two options, either President
Jonathan or nothing. I am confident that the
women, youths and all eligible voters in
Cross River will vote for Jonathan and all
PDP candidates on March 28 and April 11
elections.”
Also speaking, Gov. Liyel Imoke said: “There
are only two options for Nigerians to choose
from: vote Jonathan and move forward with
its transformation initiatives or follow the
opponent and be dragged 30 years
backward.”
Imoke said Jonathan had in his first term
established and initiated developmental
programmes as well as empowered women.
“No president has done what Jonathan has
done; so, in the history of Nigeria women, for
the first time, have been given opportunity to
participate in politics and be voted into
offices.”
“We the youths and women in Cross River
will support Jonathan and all PDP
candidates,” he said.
