Terrorism won’t stop Jonathan –Niger Delta youths

Youths of Ni­ger Delta re­gion have de­clared that no amount of terrorism by the Boko Haram would stop President Good­luck Jonathan’s second term bid.

The youths made the state­ment yesterday, when they paid a courtesy visit on the Special Adviser on Youths to the Managing Director of Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Barr. George Turnah. The youths, who described the Islamist sect as a political creation to distract Jonathan’s presi­dency, warned the group against further violence, pointing out that no group had monopoly of violence.

President of Niger Delta Youth Movement (NDYM), Mr. Felix Ogbonna, in his speech, said that a second term for President Jonathan cannot (be) negotiated.

“Time has come for us in this region to tell Nigerians that we are not comfortable with all this distraction mak­ing him (Jonathan) not to concentrate.
