Citizens of Cross River Central Senatorial District want Jonathan and Ndoma-Egba for Another Term
The people of Cross River Central senatorial district have announced their endorsement of President Goodluck Jonathan for the 2015 Presidential election and Senate Leader, Victor Ndoma-Egba (SAN) for another term in the Senate.
At a special mobilization and sensitization rally held over the weekend at Ikom, several youth and women groups, led by representatives of the district at the Nigerian Youth Parliament, said they supported the choice of Jonathan by the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a sole candidate for the election, while also demanding Ndoma-Egba’s return to the Senate next year.
Speaking at the rally on behalf of the people, representative of the Central Senatorial District at the Nigerian Youth Parliament, Prince Ayu Ojor, said, “The people of Central Senatorial District under my leadership in the Youth Parliament officially en dorse President Goodluck Jonathan. We want him to continue in 2015. The next generation belongs to us. Nobody can dictate to us because this is our time. It is our collective decision that the Transformation Agen da of President Goodluck should reach every youth.
“It’s not easy to rise to the position of Senate Leader. The last time we had this kind of opportunity was in the Second Republic when Senator Joseph Wayas was the Senate President. Now that we have this opportu nity, we don’t want to lose it. We are even hoping to get something higher in 2015. I have been directed to endorse the re-election of Senator Ndoma-Egba, the one we know, the voice of the senatorial district and the only one to lead us in the right direction.”
