No Comments
The Peoples Democratic Party Councillors Forum will on Friday in Calabar "pass a vote of confidence on President Goodluck Jonathan and also endorse him for another term in office because he has done creditably well."

The forum has called on the national leadership of the party to make all its members "automatic delegates" in the forthcoming primaries of the party.

The Chairman of PDP councilors Forum, Mr. Onogu Collins, made the plea on Tuesday in Abuja, while speaking with journalists on the forthcoming inauguration of its Cross River State executives headed by Andrew Aleke scheduled for Friday.

Speaking on the screening of the over 8,000 support groups for President Jonathan's re-election bid by his Special Assistant on Political matters, Prof. Rufai Alkali, he commended his efforts saying the forum wants "to be involved in the screening process of the various support group."

According to him, the group is supporting President Goodluck Jonathan for another term in office because of the ways he has responded to the fight against insurgency and how the Ebola Virus Disease was tackled.

Onogu said, "All Nigerians must work to support President Jonathan in the fight against insurgency; we must all be vigilant and we believe that very soon, the issue of Boko Haram will be a thing of the past."

"Jonathan is one of the best President Nigeria has ever had. I believe the opposition parties should stop witch-hunting him. They should give him the chance to take Nigeria to the next level in the next four years."
