Corporate Forum endorses Jonathan
President Goodluck Jonathan
CITING his ability to initiate and implement reforms that enhanced the operations of the private sector, a group of business leaders and professionals under the aegis of Corporate Forum, has endorsed President Goodluck Jonathan’s second term bid.
According to the group, most initiatives and intervention of Jonathan in critical sectors of the economy have been under-reported and often ignored, adding that this necessitated its endorsement for the President.
Speaking at an endorsement ceremony organised by the group in Lagos, yesterday the Forum’s Chairman, Funso Lawal, said that the move was designed to support and engender good governance. He explained: “The private sector has benefitted from the various reforms and good posture of President Jonathan’s administration. We want a consolidation of achievements and that is why we are endorsing the President for a second term.
“Corporate Forum is not a political organisation but a non-governmental organisation advocating support for President Jonathan’s administration based on his activities and intervention in the private sector.” Lawal added that the forum “has been facilitating meetings between the decision makers and business communities, stating that the endorsement was a result of the town hall meeting held between the President and private sector leaders earlier in the year.
The forum’s chairman added that the organisation celebrates good governance and supports the aspirations of political candidates through interactive sessions with the Organised Private Sector (OPS), professional organisations, and opinion leaders, while it also undertakes, on a regular basis, extensive research and reviews of economic performance and governance process through its Strategy Re

Pray hard that Buhari does not win otherwise you will know the difference between khaki and leather. The man is tough, hard and unforgiving like OBJ and if he takes note of this, well I can’t just imagine what he will do.
Buhari can do them nothing. It will be difficult for him to win.
the Nigeria government has ordered the sales of uncleared imported
vehicles
into the country in the last three months. Those willing to get a
vehicle at 39%off the actual price can call OLA for more information on 07067969891………
by GOD grace PGEJ will win the election
we will vote PGEJ again for a better nigeria
let unite and vote PGEJ for more transformation.vote PDP vote PGEJ
My prayer is for Jonathan to win.
This simply means more vote for Jonathan and this will give more edge to win.
Nigerians will vote for Jonathan massively.
Oshee! Carry go
This is a step they won’t regret.
Goodluck Jonathan will win because the All Progressives Congress chose the wrong candidate to be their flag bearer. A Fashola ticket for instance would have given Jonathan the kayoo punch(I for one would have voted for a Fashola presidency).
If a non-governmental organization can attest to the fact the President is up and doing then what more can i say.
This goes to say that the PGEJ has so much in stock for Nigerians.
So much, unimaginable good stuffs for us.
a step closer to victory, keep calm and vote the right leader GEJ all the way.
That’s a nice one…am impressed.
Everyone can witness the changes we have undergone with GEJ, so with a collective effort we can make more happen.
May the good LORD bless your bread and water.
They have taken the right step.
How many organizations do we even have in this Nigeria sef? CAC must be working overtime to keep licensing them.
We will review and take appropriate action.
