₦airaland Forum

The First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, has enlisted the support of voters in Abia State and the South-East in general for the re-election bid of her husband, President Goodluck Jonathan.

Patience, who was speaking at a reception organised for her by her maternal kinsmen of Ohuhu clan in Umuahia North Local Government Area of Abia State, said a vote for Jonathan would guarantee sustainable transformation of the country.

She was also honoured with the chieftaincy title of ‘Nkalari’ at the event, which also doubled as a fund raiser and ground-breaking ceremony of Ohuhu Civic Centre.

Mrs. Jonathan noted that her husband had the interest of Ndigbo and Nigeria at heart, saying that he had demonstrated enough commitment to give the people of the South-East a sense of belonging.

The First Lady identified the upgrading of Enugu and Owerri airports to international status, rehabilitation of Onitsha-Enugu Expressway, Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway, the second Niger Bridge, among others, as some of the key projects undertaken by her husband in the region.

She, therefore, solicited the continued support of Ndigbo for her husband in the 2015 elections, saying that the ethnic group as well as people from other parts of Nigeria would be better off if Jonathan was re-elected.

Patience said, “A bird in hand is better than thousands in the bush. Any presidential candidate who wants women to go back to the kitchen should be shunned.”

She also urged the people to “vote massively for all the PDP candidates” in the 2015 elections, arguing that the party had plan for all classes of Nigerians.

Earlier in his remarks, one of the major financiers of the PDP in the state, Chief Arthur Eze, had said Jonathan was God-sent to console Ndigbo after decades of marginalisation and neglect. He urged the people to remain steadfast in their support for him.

He said, “Any Igbo person who abandons Jonathan will not progress.”

He recalled that Jonathan remained the only Nigerian President that had genuinely identified with the cause of Ndigbo.

In his speech, Governor Theodore Orji restated the willingness of the people of the state and Ndigbo in general to vote for Jonathan in 2015, describing him as a true in-law of the state.

“Abia will be the last state to abandon Jonathan,” Orji said, noting that the President had shown enough interest in the state. “Hence, he deserves their unalloyed support,” he said.

It was a Naira rain at the event as the N500m estimate for the entire project came from only two individuals – Arthur Eze and Chief Emma Mbaka of the Platinum Mortgage Bank, with each pledging N250m.Pledges from other donors which were also in millions were only extra.

Some dignitaries at the event were Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha; ex-governors Peter Obi of Anambra; and Sam Egwu of Ebonyi states; and Senator Hope Uzodimma.

Others were the PDP governorship candidate in Rivers, Nyesom Wike; Senator Andy Uba; and Chief Ifeanyi Uba of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria.

Ebele and his wife Don turn begi begi. they want us to pity them again.

"Any Igbo that Abandons Jonathan will no progress"

And that is what they call campaign of unity. PDP keeps using ethnicity in its campaigns. they are already behaving as the opposition.

Ur husband will be given Tompolo's job of securing the oil pipelines & facilities after May 29th. As for Aso rock,na CHANGE sure pass!

..“Abia will be the last state to abandon Jonathan,” Orji said, noting that the President had shown enough interest in the state. “Hence, he deserves their unalloyed support,” he said.
He said, “Any Igbo person who abandons Jonathan will not progress".

All Tribal statements ....
As expected from a divisive government

Don't you get woman? This is not about your "husband" this is about the nigerian people, and with all due respect to your "husband" he is not bigger than the totality of the Nigerian people

Keep on jonsing ma, ur husband is a dead man walking.

Goodluck Johnathan is a good man
as a
person,
his simplicity and gentlemanness is
second
to
none.
*He has given us his very BEST over
the last
6
years. I mean, what else are we
asking for?
*He has granted Alameisiya 'STATE
PARDON' and
my guy is now running for Senate.
*He allowed Fayoose to distrupt a
court
session
and beat up a judge, while he walks
freely. I
wonder if Nigeria is sane. *He
locked up the
house
of rep from the entrance of the
CONSTITUTIONAL
speaker of that house.
*7 law makers impeached a speaker
in Ekiti
in a
house of about 26 men, and nothing
happened.
*16 was suddenly greater than 19 in
base
10, just
to cancel the one-term agreement
he
signed with
the NIGERIA Governors' Forum and
all
Nigerians
in
2011.
*Subsidy has been removed and the
standards in
our hospitals have reduced with
time.
*$20 billion is missing and minister
of
Petroleum
eats and dines with the prexy.
*Another
BIGGER
&
BOLDER subsidy is scheduled for 1st
of
June,
2015
and you may have to sell your
laptop
charger
before you can buy fuel to charge
that
same
laptop!!!
* Earlier this year, over 22 innocent
Nigerians
were
killed in the job scam organized by
the
Nigerian
Immigration Service(NIS) . The
Minister of
Interior,
Abba Moro, told us the job interrwas
"simply
mismanaged" and he has retained
his office
and
even with extra luggage.
*1 Naira used to be equal $1.2
under #
GMB but
now it's #186.5
to just $1, the worst ever in our
history.
* Madam Gele, Ngozi Okonjo, just
told us
we
need
an extra $5 billion, through debts of
course,
so
that our economy will not collapse
like
Humpty-
Dumpty.
*While Benue State University was
on an
unending
internal strike killing the future of
poor
Nigerians,
Senator DAVID MARK (son of the soil)
built
his
own PRIVATE UNIVERSITY, of course
with
tax
payers' money, and my gentle
president
followed
him to launch the school
shamelessly.
*He has spent all money in the
treasury
and even
had to BORROW an extra $1 billion
but
# BokoHaram keeps getting
more equipped than our military.
*Over 200 girls are missing, over
15,000
killed by
# BokoHaram , over 6 million
displaced
from their
homes and uncountable injured
beyond
repairs
yet
my president went to a a meeting in
#
KENYA
with 7 different PRIVATE JETS..
*clears
throat...
* # PHCN is giving their loyal
customers
GENERATORS
as gifts for paying their # electricity
bills on
time..Grab your
COPY NOW!!! .
That's less than 1% of the reasons
we need
to
dance to a new SHOKI, this AWILO is
no
more
wulo for us. Cheers to an
unstoppable
change
