Youth leaders across Yala /Ogoja federal constituency have pledged to support the re-election aspiration of Hon.Jarigbe Agom and other PDP candidates.
Speaking on behalf of the youth groups, Chief Mrs.Angela Ogeyi Odey stated that they have resolved to back Jarigbe to win the election next year.
Madam Angela described Jarigbe as a heavyweight politician whose aspiration is causing the All Progressives Congress (APC) sleepless nights.
“Only a man of verifiable performance and integrity like Hon.Jarigbe can be guaranteed of our support .
This has posed a big threat to other-candidates who see his return to the green chamber as a set back to their ambitions.
But to us , Hon.Jarigbe is a valuable asset that we can not afford to play with. As it is now, PDP cannot afford to risk any position in the 2019 election.
“What we need now is a much experienced legislator who is loaded with new ideas and innovative concepts and Hon.Jarigbe is the only way out in 2019 especially with his proven achievement,” she said.
The political leader noted that Jarigbe has touched every sector in the constituency particularly in education.
“He has influenced the construction of classroom blocks for schools, many communities are now enjoying electricity through his intervention and provision of transformers, many communities now enjoy road projects, skill acquisition through SDG has been influenced for constituents amongst others,” he added.
Chief Mrs.Angela Ogeyi Odey said,Jarigbe has institutionalised good legislative representation and therefore should be appreciated with another four years to enable him continue and complete all his on-going legislative impact on Yala/Ogoja.
“We the youth have studied the political situation in Cross river and noted that there is a need for Jarigbe to continue the good work he is doing for his people.
Though we are aware of some sycophants who are silently working against his re-election, we know it is out of fear of the weight of the ‘Big political personality’.
They are no match with Jarigbe. Lots of them have been trusted in different capacities and we have know their strength and limitations. We have nothing against anybody’s aspiration, but PDP will not toy with such a sensitive seat as the lawmaker of our constituency.
“As at today,Jarigbe has the highest number of Bills and motions in the history of green chamber. Presently, he sponsored two (2) out of the bills that the president have assented to and out of the bills awaiting presidential assent, he has another two.
What else do we need from a legislator?
“Jarigbe has attracted very high federal presence to Yala/Ogoja in the last 3 years and we want him to do more.”
