Coalition of Urhobo Youths Organisation, CUYO, said on Tuesday that it had rebuffed moves by the Goodluck Support Group, GSG, to solicit its support for President Goodluck Jonathan in the 2015 general elections.

CUYO President, Mudiaga Abiri, who spoke with newsmen in Ughelli, Delta State, on the outcome of the group’s meeting with the leadership of GSG in the state, lamented that the Urhobo nation, as the fifth largest ethnic nationality in the country, had been unfairly treated by the Jonathan administration.

He said: “CUYO notes with dismay that by the 2011 general elections, it had about 25,273 unemployed Urhobo graduates in its data base and this number had risen to 31, 738 in 2014. The Jonathan administration has done nothing to reduce the figure.”
