2015: Jonathan’s performance’ll ensurehis re-election –Uzodimma

Senator Hope Uzodimma representing
Imo West Senatorial District in the upper
legislative chamber of the National
Assembly has said President Goodluck
Jonathan will be re-elected in the 2015
presidential election based on his track
records.
Speaking with journalists in Abuja
yesterday on why the president should be
re-elected for another term, Uzodimma
said the Jonathan administration had
been “silently transforming the country
from its dark ages of underdevelopment
to a 21st century economic and political
force,’ which he said would earn him
brighter chances of re-election in 2015.
He noted that the president had prompted
true democracy by creating an enabling
environment where people from diverse
backgrounds and with divergent views
and opinions could be accommodated.
He said: “Under the watch of Goodluck
Jonathan administration, the All
Progressives Congress (APC) has been
registered by the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) as a mega
opposition party which before now would
have been unthinkable.”
He further said the administration had
ensured the conduct of free and fair
election in the country, including the 2011
polls, which was adjudged to be the most
credible election that had ever been
conducted in the country.
Stating that the administration had kept
faith with its transformation agenda,
which according to him, had opened up
many sectors, including the rail system,
he added that unlike in other
administrations, the Jonathan
administration had given a free hand to
the country’s electoral umpire, INEC, to
perform its statutory duties.
