Former Senate President and presidential aspirant, Anyim Pius
Anyim, has stated that due to his experience in politics, he isn’t going to
learn on the job if elected President.
The meeting which was held on Tuesday night in Abuja was in
continuation of Anyim’s interface with critical stakeholders in the party
regarding his presidential bid.
Anyim, who was also Secretary to the Government of the
Federation, said this while meeting with former ministers who had served under
the Peoples Democratic Party.
Speaking to the group under the auspices of Forum of Former
PDP Ministers, Anyim stated that he has the singular advantage of not coming to
learn on the job when he is elected President in 2023.
A statement made available on Wednesday quoted
the former Senate President as saying, “There is one thing that I have which
many do not have. I have lived in Abuja for 33 years. And I have spent all my
life working around the presidency. When I worked as a civil servant, it was in
two parastatals in the presidency.
“As President of the Senate, I worked along with the
President of the country. When I worked as SGF, that was the engine room of the
presidency where all of you served, providing the fire.”
Anyim also reminded the former ministers that they have come
a long way together.
“There is one thing I have which other aspirants don’t.
There is no minister here who didn’t serve in government with me. None! It is
either you served with me when I was President of the Senate or SGF. So, for
me, this is truly homecoming,” he said.
