2019: We will contribute significantly to buying Pres. Buhari's nomination form - Anambra Monarch

Ifitedunu community of Dunukofia
local government of Anambra State
has said it will make significant
contribution to the purchase of
President Muhammadu Buhari’s
nomination form for his second term.
The traditional ruler of the
community, Dr Emeka Ilouno stated
this on Friday during the ground breaking ceremony of a federal
government specialist skill acquisition center by the minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige.

The monarch said the community was
ready to make financial contribution
to Buhari’s second term as a gesture of
their support, and to also have a stake
in his government when he returns
again.
“We will support the president for a
second term because he is doing well.
We only need that he tells us when he
wants to buy the form,” Ilouno said.
The president general of the
community, Chief Samuel Nweke said
the community will support the
president for a second term, while also
saying that Anambra would be glad to
donate the minister, Dr Ngige as a
running mate of President Buhari in
2019.
Nweke said the community is
delighted to donate the over 3,000
square metres of land to the federal
government for the centre. Reacting to the call, Dr Ngige praised
the community for freely donating
their land for the project, saying that
the good thing about the project is that
it was captured in 2017 budget, and
also in that of 2018.
“What that means is that the funds for
the project is already available. There
is not fear of the project being
abandoned. Federal government will
construct this skill acquisition centre
with maximum dispatch,” he said.
The minister said the construction of
the centre, which is also being
constructed in other parts of the
country would take care of the deficit
in employment and ensure jobs for all
category of persons.
Reacting to the endorsement of the
president by the people of the
community, Ngige reminded members
of the community that the APC was
one party that woos voters with projects and not money.
He said more project of the federal
government will still be cited in
Anambra state as a way to woo voters
in 2019.
He called on the people to continue in
their support for the president, while
also assuring that the president would
not disappoint them.
