Battle
of Throne! Fact Or Publicity Stunt? Lol!
Yesterday, the North Central
zonal rally organized by Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) was held
at Minna, Nigeria State. I don’t want to talk about the calamity that nearly
happened at the VIP stand of the rally that yesterday, but, my main focus is on
the statement credited to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation,
Pius Anyim, where he was quoted as saying at the rally in Minna, that at least
1.2 million Nigerians have signed a register calling on President Goodluck
Jonathan to seek a second term in office. Wow! That great!
According to the statement, the
signatories stand as follows: Benue, 103,694; FCT 101,377; Kogi 100,948 and
Kwara 101,060. Niger State, 300,767; Nasarawa 100,429; and Plateau 308,610.
The SSG added that by September
30, during the grand finale of the rally, TAN is expecting a greater number of
signatures’’, which he claims was an affirmation of Nigerians’ appreciation of
the present administration’s achievements.
Wow! Did you see that number? 1.2
million Nigerians (still counting) out of the about 170 million population in
Nigeria have already asked the President to re-contest. Quite intimidating!
