A presidential aspirant, Governor Udom Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State has said that the 2023 general elections will determine what the future holds for Nigeria.
Emmanuel bemoaned the state of the nation, saying things have deteriorated pitifully in critical aspect of governance.
Emmanuel spoke in Calabar, Cross River State capital on Tuesday to inform PDP stakeholders and delegates of his intention to run for the presidency of the country.
“Next year’s general election is very critical to the well-being of Nigeria. The elections will redefine whether the country will move forward or not. This will depend much on the types of politicians elected into power,” he said.
“Somebody must rise to redeem and restore the country. I, therefore, offer myself to partner with God to rescue Nigeria,” he said.
Director General of the campaign, former Governor of Benue State, Senator Gabriel Suswan said Nigeria needs somebody like Emmanuel who is grounded in economics to raise her from the economic doldrums.
Chairman of PDP in Cross River, Venatius Ikem assured Emmanuel of their support and prayers.
