The Ebonyi State Governor, Egnr. Dave Umahi, on Wednesday
denied that he has abandoned his ambition to contest the 2023 presidential
election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Recall that a Federal High Court in Abuja recently ordered
Governor Umahi, his deputy, Kelechi Igwe and members of the State House of
Assembly, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the APC to
vacate their offices.
Speaking to State House correspondents shortly before
joining his colleagues for a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the
Presidential Villa, Abuja, the governor said that he was not worried about the
court judgement, which he said was the design of God to enable him to reach
where he had not previously reached during his consultation.
Asked whether his presidential ambition has died he said:
“It could be just your own imagination because there is no such thing. You can
see us in the various media houses, you know, social media. You can see my
supporters everywhere, you can see my consultation.
“I even consult those who are also aspiring. And that shows
you how committed I am to this course and I think it’s God’s project. So, there
is no such thing. Whatever is God’s project, no such consideration will come to
such project.”
