We South-South are solidly behind you, youth leader assures Buhari
By President Muhammadu Buhari has been assured of maximum support from the majority of voters, especially youths in the South-South region of the country, urging him not to despair.
This assurance came from Mr Tamuno George, a prominent Niger Delta youth leader and strong supporter of President Buhari on behalf of people and voters in the region.
Tamuno, who spoke to journalists in Warri, Delta State, on Saturday, expressed confidence that the South-South region will vote en masse for President Buhari to enable the region to demand adequate representation and benefits in his second term.
He commended Senator Goodwill Akpabio and Dr Ebikabonwei Victor Ben aka Gen Boyloaf who had volunteered to mobilize and sensitize the people of Niger Delta, changing the narratives in the creeks and communities in the region.

“Despite the fact that the South-South did not vote for President Buhari in 2015, the President has shown more commitment to the development of the region.
“President Buhari has completed the Itakpe-Aladja railway, dredging of Escravos to open up the Warri Port, Nigerian Maritime University, Okerekoko, reconstruction of Port Harcourt International Airport, sustenance of the Amnesty programme among others,” he enthused.
According to him, “the people of South-South now understand and have clearly seen Buhari’s genuine commitment and good plans for the development of the region, and that is why the people of the region would cast their votes for President Buhari at the presidential election on February 16.”
