President said, this occurred because the governments have
enough time to settle down and plan quickly.
He said: “ Whatever we have done in the last four years, we believe
that we will even do more in the next four years. Most governments
all over the world do better in their second tenure.
“This is because the Presidents are more stable that time, especially
in this two terms arrangement. They are more stable. They sit down
and plan for the country and focus on key areas. ”
Jonathan said his government would pay bigger attention to the
Ajaokuta Steel Company of Nigeria and ensure that the steel is
comprised into the nation’s rail system if he won re-election.
He vowed to continue to work with the state government to
