Chief Rommy Ezeonwuka, a member of Board of
Trustees, BoT of the All Progressives Grand
Alliance, APGA, has promised that Ndigbo would
still vote for President Goodluck Jonathan in
2015 presidential election, despite lack of federal
presence in the Southeast geo-political zone.
Vanguard reports that Ezeonwuka, on Friday
advised that in as much as Ndigbo has already
made up their minds to vote massively for
Jonathan in 2015, the President on his part
should be ready to reach an accord with Ndigbo
in order for him to have the guarantee for Igbo
votes.
He, however, lamented that for over 15 years
the PDP has been in power, it failed to maintain
Eastern roads built within only four years by the
Shehu Shagari administration.
“We will vote for Jonathan on the condition that
he has to speed up the second Niger Bridge
project, maintain Eastern roads, give us
uninterrupted power supply and ensure federal
presence in the Southeast region,” Ezeonwuka
said.
The APGA chieftain further stated that the party
as an Igbo party has already endorsed Jonathan
for the second tenure, despite of all odds.
He noted that it is now left for President
Jonathan to reciprocate the gesture by swinging
into action to fulfill his own part of the deal when
he starts his second tenure.
