ALL the ethnic women groups organization in Ebonyi State, have drum support for Atiku/ Obi presidency come February 16th presidential election. The group described the APC government as a failure even to live up to the minimum expectations of Nigerians in terms of infrastructure, security and job creation.
The women threw their weight on the former Vice President of Nigeria yesterday at Friends of Atiku Campaign Office in Abakaliki during their courtesy visit to the state coordinator of the group, Hon. Linus Abaa Okorie.
Speaking on behalf of others, the leader of Benue state women in Ebonyi state, Mrs Ujoh Rose, condemned what she described ‘disheartening treatment being meted to the women under the current APC government, saying the time has come to end the ugly development.
She noted that women were not being carried along properly in the scheme of things under the current government due to the belief of the leader of the government that women should belong to the ‘other room’.

Mrs Ujoh who retired as Assistant Director of Administration at the Federal Teaching Hospital Abakaliki said ” if you take time to study how politicians handle women and youths during campaigns and after elections it is very disheartening. Because they only value us during elections only to discard us after the victory.
“Since I retired from service, no benefits, no entitlements, nothing at all. Each time I call the man in charge, he will say I am in a meeting. What kind of meeting is that, that holds every day and which does not end? It is time to change that, and it is our belief that Atiku Abubakar will be very different when he comes on board on May 29th.
“As leaders of women groups from various tribes and ethnic groups in Nigeria, we shall galvanize our fellow women in this state to ensure the victory of Atiku Abubabar come February 16th.
In her remarks Mrs Hajia Adiza Abubakar leader of Hausa Women In Ebonyi from Adamawa state said chilling reports of Killings and sundry insecurities across the country demand urgent attention, stressing that Atiku Abubakar was the only presidential candidate with the experience and political will to tackle the challenges.
“All these killings, hunger and unemployment everywhere in Nigeria should be addressed and I know that my brother Atiku will stop it when he becomes President.
“All our women have decided to vote for him for the betterment of Nigeria.”
In his reaction, the state Coordinator of Friends of Atiku in the state and member representing Ohaozara/Onicha/Ivo federal constituency, Linus Abaa Okorie, commended the women for their visit and assured them that Nigeria will be great and prosperous under Atiku Abubakar and Mr.Peter Obi.
Okorie directed the coordinator of the women wing of Friends of Atiku in the state, Mrs. Eze Mercy, who is also the Women Coordinator, PDP Presidential Campaign, Ebonyi State; to work closely with the women to ensure the victory of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) Presidential candidate in the next month’s presidential polls in the state.
