Foremost governorship aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic
\nParty (PDP) in Abia state, Barr. Friday Nwosu says he remains the
\ncandidate to beat in the 2015 poll in the state.<\/p>\n
In an interview with newsmen in Aba, Nwosu said he has assessed the
\nprofiles of aspirants contesting for the Abia governorship position and
\nrealized that he is better placed and possess the right credentials to
\nsucceed Gov. Theodore Orji<\/p>\n
Nwosu who expressed confidence that he will emerge the PDP flag bearer in
\nthe governorship primary election called on residents of the state to join
\nhands with the present government to make the state a better place for
\nall, stating that\u00a0 the governor has placed Abia on a sound footing judging
\nby the quality of projects he has undertaken.<\/p>\n
He disclosed that he is still consulting with the people of the state and
\nbeyond about his ambition.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m consulting the people of Abia state and beyond; consulting privately
\ninforming them about my intention and seeking for support. The support we
\nare getting from the stakeholders and people across the state and beyond
\nis unparalleled. My ambition is a mass movement and this tells you that it
\nis a divine project. I have my unique selling points which will be made
\nknown at the appropriate time,\u201d Nwosu stated.<\/p>\n
He condemned reports alleging that he will later withdraw for a better
\ncandidate in the build up to the governorship race and called on people
\nseeking political offices to sell their programmes to the electorate
\nrather engaging in propaganda.<\/p>\n
According to him,\u201d As a legal practitioner, I deal with facts; I cannot
\nbegin to talk about stepping down for anybody when I know that no aspirant
\nis better qualified than me. I can assure you that most of these aspirants
\nwill not even purchase expression of interest forms. They are standing on
\none foot, pretending to be aspirants but time will reveal these pretenders
\nand their game.\u201d<\/p>\n
He advised journalists to be factual in their reports instead of
\nmisquoting people and pandering to political interests.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
