The Niger
Delta Renaissance Organisation has hailed the transformation strides of
President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. The group also said Rivers State will be
better off with Chief Dumo Lulu Briggs as governor of the state come 2015.
The group
made this known in a press statement signed by its Director of Publicity Eddie
Tekenah after the well attended zonal rally organized by the Transformation
Ambassadors of Nigeria TAN at the liberation Stadium Port Harcourt.
The group
said despite the security challenges faced in the country today, President
Jonathan has achieved a lot in infrastructural and human capital development.
The group said Jonathan must be supported to continue his good works which is
yielding fruits. It said it will be wrong to kick against his bid for
reelection because it will send wrong signals as far as equity and justice is
concerned.
The group
also praised Chief Dumo Lulu Briggs for his mobilization effort in the rally
and his distribution of sanitisers at the venue of the rally. The group said
Rivers state needs a better person to run the state stressing that Chief Dumo
Lulu Briggs has all it takes to govern the state and make it a major economic
hub not only in the country but in the West Africa sub region. It concurred
with Chief Dumo Lulu Briggs’ statement that the President has brought down
inflation by 40 % and has won the confidence of the World Bank. The group said
it believes that with Chief Dumo in the helms of affairs in Rivers state, he
will replicate such feat in the state especially considering his corporate
background.
The Niger
Delta Renaissance while thanking the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria TAN for
the rally urged all Niger Delta people to shun enemies of the region masquerading
as progressives in the opposition party and support the Peoples Democratic
Party as well as President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan come 2015.
It condemned
the antics of the opposition to discourage people from attending the rally by
attempting to use the ebola scare as propaganda. ‘’we consider it dangerous and
evil for people to use a disease as dreadful as the ebola virus as a political
propaganda to discourage people from attending the rally. This must be
condemned. We praise the efforts of all those that defied this threat by
turning up en mass for the rally. It goes a long way to show the acceptability
of the PDP and President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan by the people of the region’’.
The statement added.
