President Goodluck Jonathan has assured that the South East zone would get an additional state to bring them at par with other zones in the country.

Jonathan who gave the assurance yesterday during a reception organised for him by the Imo State Council of Traditional Rulers in Owerri , the Imo State capital, said that if he is re- elected, he would ensure that the recommendation of the just concluded National Conference on state creation is implemented.

He said the proper thing to do is to ensure that the South East geo-political zone with only five states, gets additional one as recommended by the National Conference for equality before any other zone agitating for additional state is considered.

President Jonathan said he was elated for the massive support he had received from the zone, adding that he was sure that the same support would be given to him and his party in the general elections to enable him consolidate on the achievements of his administration so far.

“The South East is the support base of the PDP and I am here again to solicit for your supports and blessing in the Saturday election.

“It is a rare privilege for me because the South East has not supported anybody the way they have supported me since 2011 and in the next four years, I will ensure that the zone benefit more in terms of projects and most importantly, I will also ensure that the recommendation of the National Conference which has been adopted by the Federal Executive Council (FEC), is religiously implemented.”

He appealed to traditional rulers to mobilize their people to cast their votes for all the PDP candidates at all levels.

Earlier, the Chairman of the Imo State Council of Traditional Rulers and Chairman, South East Council of Traditional Rulers, Eze Cletus Ilomunanya said that they are solidly behind the re-election of President Jonathan, because he has done marvelously well in the last four years.

He appealed to the president to come and rescue the royal fathers in the state as they have suffered so much deprivation in the hand of those who do not understand how the traditional institution operates.

I wonder where he is going to create a new state in the SE from? Anyway, It seems like GEJ don't have anything new to offer. What the Igbos need is jobs, Electricity, good roads. The major roads in the east is in horrible state. Nigerians are dying every day in The PH- Enugu road and Onitsha- Enugu road because of the poor state of the roads. You could not even complete the 2nd Niger bridge that you promise to build and complete. The Enugu airport is not yet an international airport like you promised in 2010.

Thousands of graduates from the east cant get good job because the unemployment rate is high. You have done nothing for the Igbos in the last 5 yrs and you want us to vote you again. Now you want us to vote for you again so you can create an imaginary new igbo state from air.

GEJ till 2019!!!

Its a pity you ll never win. Even if Buhari was not in the presidential race, I doubt if you ld beat other presidential candidates @ the polls, judging by how poorly you ve ruled us.

It was James E Faust who said "In this life, we have to make many choices. Some are very important choices. Some are not. Many of our choices are between good and evil. The choices we make, however, determine to a large extent our happiness or our unhappiness, because we have to live with the consequences of our choices.

Propaganda will always crash when confronted with the Facts and like we will always say, Lies have expiry dates but the truth will Never expires, here are the two choices you will be presented with on saturday;

1. Saturdays election is a choice between  Moving Forward and going backward 

2. This election is a choice between a 73 year old man that cannot remember the name of his running mate, his party or INEC and a 53 year old man that has midwived the transformation of critical Infrastructure in our Country


3. This election is a clear choice between going Analogue and proceeding with digitalisation

4. This election is a choice between a Man who built the first speed rail in sub-Saharan Africa and another who cancelled it's first Metro project


5. This election is a contest between a man who set up 12 brand New universities and a man who did not set up any as head of state


6.This election is about a man who gave young people YOUWIN and Almajiri schools and another who celebrates them as weapons of electoral Terrorism 


7. This Election is about a man who is on the verge of wiping out Polio and a man who does not believe in immunisation 


8. This Election is a race between a Generation that superintended over the Decay of our Nation and a generation that must salvage it,



9.This election a clear fight between a confused cattle herder with a stagnant No of 150 cows after 12 years and a Man whose agricultural policies and programmes have cut our food import by 40% 

10.This is election is between a Professor of Buharinomics who wants to stabilise the price of crude in the international Market / make =N= equivalent to $ 1 and a Man who under whose watch Nigeria became the biggest economy in Africa 



         This Election is a clear choice between Good and Evil 


       This election is about you 

               Use your PVC wisely 


God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria
