Today, presidential candidate of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and incumbent Nigeria's President, Goodluck Jonathan was endorsed by the Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere to contest the presidency for the second time.
The reason for the endorsement is not far fetched. According to the Spokesman for the group, Yinka Odumakin,
the endorsement was predicated on the President’s commitment to implementing the recommendations of report of the National Conference 2014.
In the words of Odumakin, "Afenifere supports the President’s reelection because he had the courage to convoke the national conference and we hope that he will implement the report.
"The President expressed the commitment that he will adopt the report within 12 months of returning to office."
