The Senator representing the Anambra Central District who was a one-time governor of Anambra State, Dr. Chris Ngige made it official today of his intention to join the gubernatorial race in November 2013 in Anambra State. The disclosure was made in a letter to the Senate President, Senator David Mark.
The letter to the Senate President was read on the Senate floor today.
The letter read, “I have concluded my consultations, and now find it necessary to officially inform this Senate that I will be an Aspirant, and hopefully a Candidate in the November 16, 2013 Governorship election in Anambra State. Please wish me luck and offer your prayers for me, even if you are not of my party.”
“I intend to use the vehicle of the Progressives – our newly merged political party – The All Progressives Congress (APC),” the Senate said in the letter.
“It is to the benefit of all Nigerians that Anambra State is well governed, has peace, progress and sustainable development. This task is, therefore, not for unsteady or untested hands that would seek to learn on the job. Anambra State needs an experienced, tried and tested hand. The people believe that the Almighty God will do it for them through me. May God’s Will be done!!”
