Ben Ayade got his presidential form

Cross River Governor, Prof. Ben Ayade on Monday in Abuja, said he would be Nigeria’s next president given his pedigree and the support enjoyed from Nigerians.

Ayade made this known when a concerned group of persons known as sons and daughters of Cross River, presented him the All Progressives Congress (APC) nomination form to contest for Presidency in 2023.

The governor, who assured that he would tackle the problem of poor electricity supply head-on, said that he was ready to deploy a workable solution to fix the problem once and for all.

On whether or not he stood the chance of emerging as the party’s choice being a southerner, Ayade assured that the leadership of the APC would find a lasting solution to the issue.

He said the inheritance of democracy as a practice in Nigeria and other African countries without customising the ethnic sensitivity and diversity of the people had become a critical issue.

“As other democracies deal with population and numbers, which is the supremacy of numbers over the minority, democracy as an instrument for egalitarian distribution, equity, fair sharing and equal access to power is a subject for discussion.
