The governor of Enugu State, Chief Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and many members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) family in the state have expressed for Senator David Mark’s aspiration to become the party’s presidential candidate.
Governor Ugwuanyi expressed his unalloyed support when Senator Mark’s Presidential Campaign team visited him in his office in Enugu on Tuesday, saying that that the aspirant has the capacity and competence to turn around the living condition of Nigerians.
In a statement issued by the former Senate President’s Media Assistant, Mr. Paul Mumeh, he described the reception given his boss in Enugu state as being impressive and warm, adding that Governor Ugwuanyi has demonstrated encouraging support.
“I worked with him at the National Assembly, I can attest to his capacity and competence.
“We shall support him to ensure he gets the ticket of our party” Ugwuanyi stated.
In his response during the visit, Senator David Mark emphasized his experience and competence, noting that there are great challenges ahead towards making Nigeria a better place.
“I entered the race because I have what it takes to address the socio-economic and political challenges facing our nation.”
“The level of insecurity and economic down turn in our country today requires a man with a proven record of excellent performance to confront. Besides, we must ensure peace and justice for all”.
“I am a man of my words. For me, it will be a covenant with Nigerians if given the mandate; I have the blueprint to tackle the economy through massive Industrialization, Agriculture and Small and Medium Scale industry.
“Every Nigerian will feel the impact of the economy if I am elected. I have the ability to do so.”
“Irrespective of the number of presidential aspirants under the PDP platform, I am confident of victory but we (aspirants) have resolved that whoever wins through a transparent and credible process will be supported by all,” the former Senate President stated.
State chairman of the party Mr. Augustine Nnamani added that Senator Mark is the kind of leader the nation needs at this time, promising that Enugu delegates would do the needful in his favour.
Nnamani told Senator Mark to do all that is needed to change the condition of Nigerians for good if elected saying “I know you have the pedigree to make a difference.”
