Jonathan’s Supporters Commence Campaign, Mobilisation For Tinubu

Members of the Citizens Network for Peace and Development in Nigeria, CNPDN, who support former President Goodluck Jonathan, have begun mobilizing for All Progressives Congress, APC presidential candidate Bola Tinubu.

The political group launched campaigns in Port Harcourt, the capital of Rivers State, claiming that Nigeria’s next president must come from the country’s south.

The supporters endorsed Tinubu in November and began grassroots mobilization in the country’s South East and South South geopolitical zones.

In November, Tinubu’s supporters endorsed him and began a grassroots mobilization in the country’s South East and South South geopolitical zones.

Wainwei, whose group made a cash donation of N1 million to support Tinubu’s campaign in the two geopolitical zones, vowed to do everything to ensure the next president emerged from the South.

He said, “In the same vein, our position that the next president of this country should come from the south is driven by same vision and principles,” he added, saying there would be a better sense of belonging for the southern people.

“We are, therefore, calling on the South South governors who have betrayed their people by supporting another northern candidate to take over from Buhari after eight years of a president from the North, to resign immediately.

“This is because the people of the South South zone can no longer trust them with their common heritage as they have placed their personal interests above the collective interest of their people. Our call on them to resign is also premised on the fact that they recently received huge sums of money via the 13% derivation fund and squandered the same in pursuit of their personal interests at the expense of their people,” Wanwein articulated.
