Gov Umahi<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The governor of Ebonyi, Dave\u00a0Umahi, has stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential ticket should be assigned to the south-east for \u201cequity and fairness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Umahi, who announced on Tuesday that he would run for president in 2023 as the party\u2019s standard-bearer, spoke with Arise TV on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Given the \u201csentiment voiced by all segments of society,\u201d the governor suggested the APC should zone its presidential ticket to the south-east \u201cto enable the nation to move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Umahi stated that he \u201cwould not feel any sense of injustice\u201d if the party does not support his or the south-east region\u2019s ambitions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m still a new person in the APC, and whatever thing I get in terms of my desire, I will consider favour from God and leaders of the party. I will not feel any sense of injustice,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut looking at it generally about the sentiment being expressed by all the sectors of the society and to move the nation forward and for absolute unity and peace, it\u2019s important that equity, fairness and justice should come to be and to enable the nation move forward.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd nobody is saying, \u2018if you don\u2019t zone it to the south-east, the nation will not move forward\u2019, but I think that if a nation is built on equity and fairness then there is going to be progress and prosperity. So you can understand that I\u2019m new in the house and whatever happens in terms of my desire and that of the south-east is a favour.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
