Like other Nigerians out there, I can’t wait to know the outcome of the forthcoming Presidential elections. So, a group of women from Ondo, Oyo and Ogun took to the streets of Lagos to throw their wings behind President Goodluck Jonathan who is seeking a second term in office.

the solidarity walk which took place on Friday 23rd January 2015, started  from Jibowu, down to various parts of Surulere, and ended at the National stadium saw women and some GEJ supporters carrying placards and banners in support of the President.

A novelty match was played between women from various states, after which various representatives of the women groups gave good testimonies about the works of President Jonathan and why they support him to run for another four years.

One women who spoke on behalf of her group said women feel safe been governed by President Goodluck Jonathan and are convinced that he will bring peace and progress to Nigeria, despite the Boko Haram insurgency. The woman said given more time, the President will put an end to the  menace.

Another woman leader, said she sees the President as a ‘champion for Women’, as he is the first President to appoint over 30% women to strategic positions in his cabinet.

The women also added among that President Jonathan promptly responds to the plight of women, and for this and more, he has their full support.
