First Lady, Patience Jonathan, today urged women in Ondo State to vote for President Goodluck Jonathan in the Saturday’s general election.
According to her, the President had done enough for women in the country to deserve their votes.
Mrs. Jonathan spoke in Akure, the state capital, at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Women Rally in the state.
The President’s wife urged women in the state not to disgrace her but to vote for all the PDP candidates in the coming elections.
She said the people of the state had been longing for a federal polytechnic for more than 20 years, but it was the Jonathan government that acceded to their request.
“Don’t disgrace your Mama. Don’t forget your Mama. I kneel down for you to vote PDP candidates. I have come to plead with you to vote for Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.
“In Ondo, for 20 years, you have been crying for a federal polytechnic. But it is PDP government, this government, Goodluck government that found it fit, that found it worthy to give our children another school”, Mrs Jonathan stressed.
The First Lady, who described the All Progressives Congress, APC, as a party of propagandists, urged the women not to give their votes to the opposition party.
Mrs. Jonathan stated that Nigerian should prefer the transformation agenda of the PDP government to the APC’s promise of change.
She stressed that the Jonathan government had tried for the people of the country in the areas of transportation, education, agriculture and woman development.
According to her, the government had drastically reduced corruption in the country, especially in the distribution of fertilisers.
