Posted by admin Top Stories Sunday, December 19th, 2010

President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has said in Kaduna on Saturday, that if the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) delegates from the North West zone supported him and Vice President Mohammed Namadi Sambo to emerge victorious during the 2011 Presidential election, he would never disappoint the North.

He said already, his administration had given priority attention to the region as of recent, Vice President Sambo reopened one of the largest textiles in the region which had remained closed for many years, the United Nigerian Textiles Limited (UNTL) and had not relented in its effort to transform the Almajiri system of education among others.

The delegates from the states of Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Kebbi, Jigawa, Sokoto and Zamfara who were supported by their state governors and former governor of Kano state, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, unanimously endorsed the Goodluck/Sambo ticket for 2011 and declared their unflinching support for PDP.

According to Jonathan who was on a working visit to Kaduna State with the Vice President, he would only spend 4 years if voted into power in 2011 within which he would ensure that young men and women were engaged in various sectors of the economy so that they would be productive and things would improve generally in the country.

He said since commercial banks in the country were afraid of taking risks, the Federal Government would provide loans at low interest rate for the development of the Agric sector which contributes to our GDP, and for the revival of industries especially the ones in Kano and Kaduna.

He said Nigeria has one destiny and Nigerians would have to work together to develop the nation as a problem in one part of the country, affects other parts also.wp_posts
