Julius Abure has said he has no intention to contest for the Edo governorship election next year.
The chairman said the clarification was as a result of several inquiries from the media and other party members after a group at the national headquarters of the party on Monday urged Abure to join the contest. The group, while making their demands on Abure, said that his acceptance to run for the election will help the party ward off non-party members allegedly bent on hijacking the party primaries ahead of the governorship election.
National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh informed them that the National Chairman had no intention of contesting the Edo governorship election.“Presently, the National Chairman is preoccupied with helping our Presidential Candidate in the February 25 election, Peter Obi to reclaim his mandate freely given to him by Nigerians.
