The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation on Wednesday urged the South-West to ignore President Goodluck Jonathans repeated promises to implement the National Conference report.

The APC campaign said the Presidents promises contained nothing that approximates to the zones collective interest.

According to the organisation, whilst it was not averse to any group supporting any candidate for the forthcoming general elections, it considered it important to state that a recent purported endorsement of Jonathan by former Confab conferees from the South-West was predicated on spurious and utterly dishonest reasons.

This was contained in a statement by the Director of Media and Publicity of the campaign, Malam Garba Shehu.

He noted that the points of the Yoruba agenda that could have favoured the South-West, including regional autonomy, restructuring, devolution of power and parliamentary system, could not sail through at the conference.

Shehu alleged that the real reason for the endorsement was the because of personal economy.

The statement read, Some of them have had their personal finances transformed by way of juicy but dubious security contracts and handsome cash largesse by the government of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan at the expense of Nigerian people.

We consider it asinine that any group can predicate its support for Dr. Goodluck Jonathan on his promise to respect any agreement. The antecedents of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan speak eloquently of a serial promise breaker, unreliable keeper of gentlemanly agreement and unabashed turncoat!

It will be recalled that the first real show of Dr. Goodluck Jonathans immense capacity for not keeping to pacts was when he, in 2010, conveniently walked away from his partys North/South zoning arrangement, of which he was signatory to, with indescribable villainy.

The campaign argued that of all the 492 members of the National confab members, none was elected by the people.
