Femi Adesina, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), says Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi, can challenge for president in the 2023 decisions.
He said however the decision All Progressives Congress has not come out with its drafting equation, Umahi has the option hope for any situation in government "as long as he can gather the required help and force for triumph".
Adesina in a piece on Friday named, 'Dave Umahi's Heart of Lion', applauded the Ebonyi State lead representative for having the mental fortitude to dump the resistance Peoples Democratic Party for the APC.
He said Umahi had been a devotee to the Buhari administration even while he was in the resistance.
The president's representative expressed, "Umahi had consistently adored and regarded President Muhammadu Buhari, and never concealed it, however they were of various ideological groups. Also, the President responded in like way. Indeed, the main State the President ever visited in the nation and spent the night, was Ebonyi. Umahi was PDP in the outside, yet APC on a basic level.
"My first notion of what was in transit was around two years back. There was a gathering of Progressive Governors (as those chosen on the foundation of APC are called), and Gov Umahi had sent his appointee to join in. A PDP man among APC Governors? Something was certainly cooking.
"Presently, the deed has been finished. Gov Umahi has done what Napoleon couldn't do. He has authoritatively crossed from the PDP to APC. Just a man with the core of a lion could do that."
The PUNCH had before announced that the APC National Executive Committee on Tuesday affirmed waivers for Umahi and other people who just joined the gathering to challenge elective situations on the gathering's foundation without sitting tight for a specific number of years.
Umahi, who absconded a month ago from the PDP to the APC, had griped of minimization of the South-East zone by the PDP as one of his purposes behind leaving the gathering. He had additionally noticed that he accepted the APC would ensure the interest of the South-East zone in the 2023 official political race.
Adesina authenticated Umahi's cases, saying the South-East should play better legislative issues to get a definitive office in the nation.
The president's representative further expressed, "Umahi has shown a mental fortitude of conviction. He said the South East has been let somewhere near the PDP over the most recent 21 years, so the time had come to switch camp. It takes the core of a lion to change course in such setting. A few people said it was on the grounds that he needed to run for President in 2023. What's more, why not? The gathering has not come out with its drafting recipe, yet in a majority rules system, anybody can aim for any situation, as long as he can marshal the required help and energy for triumph.
"I've generally said it. The South-East should play better legislative issues to get a definitive office in the nation. Resting and confronting a similar course may not be the most ideal choice. The Orji Kalus, Hope Uzodimmas, Chris Ngiges, Dave Umahis, and numerous others, are currently focusing the light, with the goal that their kin can discover the way. Thus let it be."
