Ex-President Jonathan, wife, mother vote in Otuoke

For us as Nigerians, if we want to grow we must endeavour to elect the right people to lead us. So Nigeria needs decent and credible elections.

As a PDP member, I want my party to win all the seats.

We must give room for credible elections that is the only way a true leader can be selected to rule the people.
