National Chairman,New Nigeria Peoples Party , NNPP, DR. B.O. Aniebonam has said that his party is ready to adopt either General Muhammadu Buhari of APC or President Goodluck Jonathan of PDP as its presidential candidate.
He made this known in statement emailed to Newsdiaryonline.According to the chairman, “It is our wish to enter into strategic alliance with any of our sister political party where we may be weak in any of the states. The campaign team of Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GCFR), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (GCON) and any other presidential candidate is at liberty to reach out to us to take a look on its manifesto to enable our declaration for support among our teaming supporters nationwide.
“This should be concluded a week to the election to enable our mobilization of members. We must all remember that election is not a do or die matter but a process of choosing the best in the service of our country. Every campaign should be issue based rather than personal attacks on individuals. Aggrieved individuals and or group of persons should seek redress through the appropriate channels on all matters. This is the way we would build a greater Nigeria. We must work together as a people with a common goal towards building a greater Nigeria.
He noted that in 2011, the party actually supported Jonathan. “Whereas we supported Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GCFR) in the last presidential election 2011 which was achieved on a platter gold, this time around it is apparent that opposition is very stiff, Mr. President being an epitome of humility in service may be a true representation of sustainable democracy in Nigeria.
“The chase for a change in Nigeria is also a major issue in the polity of Nigeria today provided we agree that it is necessary at this material time. At the moment we are contesting election in the senate seat, Federal House and State Assemblies in about 23 states of the Federation.
“May God help us”,NNPP chairman said.
