The Governor of Enugu State, Chief Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi and the entire Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) family in the State today gave tacit support to the ambition of top Presidential contender, Senator David Mark.
Governor Ugwuanyi expressed his unalloyed support when Senator Mark’s Presidential Campaign team visited him in his office in Enugu today. The Governor said that the aspirant has the capacity and competence to turn around the living condition of Nigerians.
“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.
Senator Mark told his host that “I entered the race because I have what it takes to address the socio-economic and political challenges facing our nation.”
He stated that “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”.
The Senator added: “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.”
He stated: “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.”
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.”
