Nigerians living in Ottawa, Canada under the auspices of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) Diaspora has endorsed President Goodluck Jonathan for re-election.
According to the Coordinator of TAN Diaspora, Mr. George Chukwu, Jonathan has demonstrated an humane approach to governance and he has performed more than all his predecessors.
A leader of Nigerian community in Canada, Dr. Abel Onileola added that after assessing all the presidential candidates in the coming elections, the decision to endorse President Goodluck Jonathan was taken because he possesses the necessary vitality, vigour and qualifications to take the nation and her citizens to the next level of growth and development.
Onileola said “By all standards and considerations, President Jonathan remains the best man for the job, because the office is so strategic to all citizens, Africa and the global politics and should be entrusted to only the best material.”
Meanwhile General Overseer of the Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare has said that he trusts the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) but he doesn’t trust his environment.
Bakare, who was the running mate of Gen. Buhari on the platform of the Congress for Progressive Change in the 2011 presidential election, said “Yes I trust Buhari and this is because I have worked closely with him but I doubt his environment. The Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress, which one is really clean? Only God can give us true leaders.
“If General Buhari wins, let President Goodluck Jonathan accept defeat. Whoever loses is not a loser and if the winner is President Goodluck Jonathan, Buhari should accept this as the will of God.
“The 2015 election is a serious crossroad and we might be playing with fire but with wisdom and prayer, we shall end well.
“ I am not a politician; I am not a PDP nor APC member. I am a nation-builder. Whoever I support is not the issue, God’s will must prevail. My loyalty is first to God and to my country but God knows Nigeria’s next president.”
