Agabus Pwanagba, Jos   – As the Presidential election draws close, a youth group under the aegis of Middle Belt Youth Council has called on all Middle belt people to vote for President Goodluck Jonathan, saying he is better option for the country.

Addressing journalists in Jos, Monday, Leader of the group, Emmanuel Zopmal said, “Our reasons are not far fetched from the fact that he is a man who loves Nigeria and has never tampered with the political development of this country.

“For the fact that President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration is faced with the worst challenges that ever confronted Nigeria before does not mean that he has failed, but in the face of these daunting situations he has achieved a lot in education, transport, youth empowerment programs, agriculture, road construction, water projects, aviation among others.

Zopmal maintained that, they will not give their support to general Mohammedu Buhari, describing as “jihadist”.

He said, Buhari has taken politics to be amoral game by promising to repeal the anti-gay right laws in his purported Chatham house address.
