Former national chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, yesterday told a group
campaigning for President Goodluck Jonathan against 2015, to marry its
talks with actions.
Speaking when the group, Goodluck
Solidarity Mandate (GSM) paid him a courtesy call at his residence in
Abuja, Tukur said when a person is elected president of the country,
everybody owns a duty to support him stressing that if followers support
their leaders, they will be sure of holding them accountable.
“Jonathan is the one, support him and ensure that peace reign, ensure we succeed because we are the majority. Because of that, we have to come together, unite ourselves to ensure that 2015 by the grace of God, because of his good transformation agenda, we give him a second term he is entitled to by even the constitution of our country, it is our right”, he said.
Tukur said without peace, leaders cannot carry out whatever good thing they want to do for themselves and for the people stressing that there is every need to support President Jonathan’s transformation agenda.
”If you don’t support your leader who is leading you in the country, you cannot also demand from him what you believe he should do for you,” he stated.
Earlier, national coordinator of the group, Olusegun Akinbodewa who led state leaders of the group to the event said the group’s target is the south-west.
