2023: Governor Emmanuel joins Presidential race, picks nomination form
Brekete Family, a human rights and good governance advocacy media group in Abuja, has purchased the 2023 Presidential election nomination form for Governor Udom Emmanuel with a call on the Akwa Ibom State Chief Executive to accept their appeal and step forward for the contest.
The form was purchased, Wednesday at the PDP National headquarters, Wadata Plaza in Abuja.
Addressing the press, leader of the delegation, Mr Innocent Orji, popularly known as Daddy Scaffold, said their decision to buy the Presidential nomination form for Governor Emmanuel was informed by the need to ensure credible leadership for Nigeria in 2023.
He explained that they found Governor Emmanuel most suitably qualified to govern the country at a time like this.
“We are mandating him to contest. This is the only way we can make this country better.
“Our reason behind this is that since we got independence as a country, we’ve not really fared any better.
“There is nothing to write home about. We travelled to Akwa Ibom and saw everything, and we even discovered there are many things he has done that he didn’t mention during the interview we had with him here in Abuja.
“As a result of that we are of the opinion that if he can do that in his own state, he will do that in Nigeria. This is the only way we can move this nation forward”.
The Brekete family show airs on radio and cable television, and streams online through social media platforms and Human Rights Radio 101.1 FM in Abuja, Nigeria.
Reacting, a cross section of Nigerians who watched the live streaming of the purchase of nomination form on the Brekete family platform, commended the group for the move, and urged the Governor to accept the clarion call by Nigerians, urging him to rescue the country from bad leadership.
A Northerner, Musa Muhammed prayed God to bless members of the Brekete family for the gesture “God bless all the Brekete Family and bless Nigeria”.
Promise Asbiggyange was hopeful that Governor Emmanuel’s Presidency would herald “positive result” in the country.
“Positive result is going to be necessary”
In his reaction, Echie Sylvester from the East noted “very good. I hail ordinary President and the entire Brekete Family Worldwide”.
