Yobo, who last played for Fenerbache of Turkey (in 2014) made the declaration while speaking during the Peoples Democratic Party's presidential campaign flag off at the Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos.
Yobo who was equally present when the the incumbent president declared his re-election bid late last year called on Nigerians in the diaspora to support Jonathan in getting a fresh four-year mandate.
"If not for our president (Jonathan), we wouldn't have won the Nations Cup in South Africa," said the former Everton player. "I know what he has done to help the youth of this country. Our future is bright. This country belongs to all of us. He (Jonathan) believes so much in the youth. We have hope and our president has given us hope. I represent the youth and I am saying that let us support him to continue."
The first and only player to play 100 matches for Nigeria stated that the administration of Jonathan has excelled in all sectors.
"He has performed in all sectors be it in education, power supply, sports, industrialisation. The transformation agenda is on and we have to support him (Jonathan) to continue what he has started. Today we do no longer see kids roaming about the streets unlike in the past as they have now embraced western education.
"I know the input of president Jonathan to make the youth of this country happy and we have to support him to continue in office," said Yobo who also hails from the Niger Delta region with president Jonathan.
