A female aspirant, Ibinabo Joy Dokubo, has declared her intention to contest for the presidency on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Ibinabo announced her intention to vie for the country’s highest office on Wednesday in Abuja.
She said, “I stand before this great gathering to declare my intention to run for the office of the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria under our great party, the All Progressive Congress (APC) come 2023.
“As we can see, for the past seven years, our great party has performed tremendously well in all the sectors but the constant insecurity that has been witnessed in all parts of the country especially the North-East and the North-Central has made Nigerians not to see our overwhelming achievements.
“Look at the overwhelming infrastructural developments in the roads, railway sector, just to mention but a few. In today’s Nigeria, there is no state in the country that is not witnessing road construction under our great party, the APC.
“I will build on the infrastructural development being witnessed by my party, the APC. I will ensure that once these roads are constructed they are regularly maintained to avoid total collapse.
Also, as regards the rail construction, I will make sure we link up the rail lines to all the six geopolitical zones to reduce the burden of moving heavy trucks by the roads instead of the rail.
“As a true Bakana, Kalabari, Rivers and Ijaw girl, I will connect the riverine areas to the city.”
