2015: Jonathan's Group Dumps Him For Buhari

President Goodluck Jonathan has been dumped by a group known as Mass Movement for Goodluck (MMG).

The group that allegedly worked for Jonathan in the 2011 general elections dumped him for Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC)‎, Leadership reports.

They have now become the Mass Movement for Buhari (MMB).
The national coordinator of MMB, Kenneth Ibe-Kalu, who addressed the northwest members in Kaduna, said their action was prompted by the failure of Jonathan and the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to deliver on their electoral promises and good government.

He added that the PDP had failed to meet the yearnings and aspirations of the citizens and that is why the people are seeking change.

Kenneth urged people to ‎ensure that they collect their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) which is their voting power, just as he urged APC supporters to shun all forms of violence.

Also speaking, Alhaji Abdulkadir commended the courage of the group to join the movement for change, while assuring them that an APC government is the answer that will save the country from imminent collapse.

“The PDP knows that their time is up and waiting only to hand over to an APC government come May, 29th, 2015, but let us not relent in sensitising people and be an ambassador of change in wherever we find ourselves,” he said.

He called on the group not to stop at changing their name but to move a step further by being proactive in the quest for change by spreading the message to every nook and cranny of the country until the desired change is achieved.


Nobel Laureate Prof Wole Soy­inka had earlier said Gen Buhari was a better choice than President Jonathan.
