PDP House of Reps Members endorse Jonathan for 2nd Term
« on: July 15, 2014, 09:20:46 AM »
THE Peoples Democratic Party caucus in the House of Representatives late on Monday night passed a vote-of-confidence on President Goodluck Jonathan and endorsed him for a second term in office.

This was disclosed to State House correspondents by House Leader, Mrs. Mulikat Adeola-Akande, at the end of a meeting with Jonathan with most of the PDP governors also in attendance.

However, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, was not at the meeting which took place in the new Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa Abuja but the House members were instead led in by the Deputy Speaker of the House, Hon. Emeka Ihedioha.

According to Adeola-Akande, "We are PDP caucus of the House of Representatives. A meeting like this is not strange because we met with the President who is our party leader. We deliberated on issues affecting our party.

"The House caucus on our own decided to pass a vote-of-confidence on Mr. President and also endorse him for second term."

When asked whether the President accepted the endorsement, she simply said, "We did the endorsement and we are urging him to run for second term."
