This was even as the SGS, Mustapha Inuwa, said that the APC led administration operates an open door policy, adding that the administration is ever ready to take pieces of advice irrespective of religion.
The Secretary to the State Government insisted that the APC administration has impacted positively on the lives of the populace with it people-oriented projects hence the need for their re-election.
Also MEND spokesman, Jomo Gbomo, in a statement said: “although MEND didn’t officially accept the Federal Government’s amnesty programme, President Buhari has, till date, kept faith with a programme that has positively impacted on youth development in the region.
“Amidst other development efforts stalled by funding problems partly occasioned by oil assets vandalism, it is our view that President Buhari’s re-election bid be supported to enable him demonstrates avowed love for the Niger Delta.
“This peaceful approach is not cowardice and we warn militant groups to shun vandalism of oil facilities.
“In giving this support, we know the world is watching and hopes that Buhari will reciprocate rather than fritter away this sufficient goodwill freely given for his re-election.”
