The National Coordinator of a Yoruba group, Odua Peoples
Congress, Gani Adams has explained why he boldly supports President Jonathan
and his re-election into office. According to him Jonathan has provided 15,000
jobs for South-West youths, and his boys have secured about 5000 of the jobs
already, so why shouldn't a man like that be supported?, he asked. Hear him;
“The allegation is that the Federal Government gave us a
contract: Pipeline security. What is the security of pipeline to the OPC? We
have been running this organisation without getting a dime from any government
but most of the security agencies saddled with the responsibility of protecting
the pipelines have failed; people were dying every day.
“Nigeria was losing more than N3bn everyday to the
activities of the vandals and the agitation of that contract started from Dr.
Fredrick Fasehun one and a half years ago and you know the bureaucracy of
Nigerian ministries. It was a long process and it was just granted and it will
empower nothing less than 5,000 youths from my side.
“Altogether, that is about 15,000 jobs for Yoruba land. Will
you deny Yoruba youths the opportunity of getting 15,000 jobs because of
politics?”, he said.
