Also speaking, a former Senate Leader, Victor Ndoma-Egba justified the endorsement saying it will bring stability.
“People say this endorsement is coming too early, I don’t think so. It is good we endorse them now so they can continue with the good work and not be distracted by politics. There is no better time than now for this endorsement particularly for the reason of stability “, he said.
