The presidential candidate of the Young Progressives Party in the 2019 general elections, Kingsley Moghalu, on Friday officially announced his presidential ambition.
The former Central Bank of Nigeria Deputy Governor in a post on his Twitter account noted that he is not waiting for any fake call before he declares his intention to contest in the 2023 presidential election.
Moghalu further stated that he is running on a vision and not on ethnic identity politics, adding that he is capable like any other candidate contesting in the race.
He wrote “I’m running for President of Nigeria. I’m not waiting for anyone to (fake) “call on me”, or until the presidency is zoned to anywhere.
“I’m running on a vision, not on ethnic identity politics. I’m as good as anyone in Nigeria, north or south, to be President.”
Meanwhile, Moghalu would be pushing to contest on the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) after dumping the Young Progressives Party.
The likes of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, the chief whip of the Senate, Orji Uzor Kalu and several others have expressed their intention to contest in the 2023 presidential election.
