2023 ELECTION: ENUGU APC GOVERNOR CAUTIOUS OF GODFATHERS
Chief Uchenna Nnaji, the All Progressives Congress's (APC) governorship candidate for Enugu state in 2023, has cautioned voters in Enugu to be wary of politicians with godfathers.
Nnaji made the announcement over the weekend when he presented his plans to the Enugu Business Community under the auspices of the Enugu Chamber of Commerce, Mines, and Agriculture (ECCIMA) and the Enugu Coalition for Business and Professional Association (ECOBA).
According to him, the only contender without a godfather is him.
"I'm the only guber candidate in this election without a godfather. But God and the people of Enugu State are my godfathers," he said.
The APC candidate explained that his administration would create Enugu State Development Bank with a capital base of N250 billion if elected, saying that, "Government will own 10% equity in the Development bank while the people of Enugu state and other private investors will own 90% of equity."
He said, "Any business we invest in, we do so with the private sector by investing 10% but when the business begins to do well, we will divest and move into another business."
Nnaji, described himself as a complete "Enugu boy", having done his primary, secondary and university education (University of Nigeria Nsukka, UNN) in the State before venturing out for business.
"I'm the only businessman in this contest; I started my business from scratch, without using government funds. Business is meant to grow from one level to another.
"PDP candidate (Peter Mbah) is not a businessman, he did not grow in business, he only 'jammed money' and started oil marketing," Nnaji claimed.
