It is also truism that of all zones in the South, only the South-East has not tasted the presidency. That gives much weight to the demand you are making.<\/p><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n\u201cIn PDP, they are arguing whether it will be North or South. In our own party, APC, we have already agreed that it is South. I told my supporters when they came on December 31 last year that I will speak after the spiritual season of Lent, to enable me consult my God, angels and archangels. Easter is tomorrow (today). It is the resurrection day. We shall rise with the resurrection and after Easter Monday, I will make a pronouncement on my journey to the presidency.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\nThe two-time minister said he had done consultation with mortal and immortal people and they were now going to speak.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut make no mistake about it again, I have ears and heard your message clearly. You should all come to my hometown, Alor in Idemili South local government area of Anambra State on Tuesday. I will make a pronouncement that day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the issue of consensus among the APC aspirants in the South-East, he said the issue has not arisen now, saying such discussion would come after the expression of interest and buying of forms.<\/p>\n<p>He thanked members of the APC South-East Progressive Forum from trooping out in large numbers to receive him and prayed God to honour each and every one of them the way they honoured him.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the spokesman of the group, Comrade Tony Chime told Ngige that they trooped out to plead with his personality to join the race for the presidency.<\/p>\n<p>Chime said they had screened many people presenting themselves for the post of president, but were yet to see the material wanted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe appeal to you, our father, brother and son to please come out and join the race. We know that it is the turn of the South and when it comes down South, we know that it is the turn of the South-East and you are eminently qualified to deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ngige later paid a visit to the Governor of Enugu State, Rt. Hon. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi as part of his consultations with political leaders across the country.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;Set to make pronouncement Tuesday Ahead of the 2023 general elections, the Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige has said that he has consulted with God, the mortal&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18600,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-93988","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
