Secretary to Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator Anyim Pius
Anyim, has said President Goodluck Jonathan would soon declare his
intention to seek a second tenure as president in the 2015 elections.
This came as about 40,000 people of the South-south region defied the
ebola virus disease (EVD) scare in Port Harcourt to show their support
for the present and also present 4,150,000 signatures urging Jonathan to
seek a second term.
The leader of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN), Kenneth
Kobani, presented 4, 150,000 signatures to Ayim, who represented
Jonathan, at the South-south rally of TAN at the Liberation Stadium,
Port Harcourt, urging the president to contest the 2015 presidential
election.
Addressing the mammoth crowd, an obviously elated Ayim said, “Yes, the
South-south has broken the record of the other five regions that have so
far asked President Jonathan to run for a second term of four years.
Your region has collected 4,150,000- signatures. The signatures can be
verified. You can see the names of those who signed; their telephone
numbers and local government. This process is real”.
