The Minister of Labour and Employment, Senator Chris Ngige, on Saturday, said, he had consulted with both mortal and immortal people and would disclose his position on the 2023 presidency on Tuesday, 19th April, 2022.

Ngige disclosed this to newsmen on Saturday at the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu, while responding to a request from a pressure group under the aegis of the South East Progressive Forum, to contest the presidency in 2023.

“This is an ambush. It’s an Easter ambush and anything done in Easter is spiritual. So I thank you people for meeting us here and saying what is in your mind. Make no mistake about it.

“It is us in the southern part of Nigeria that the presidency is due for. It’s also true, a truism that of all the zone in the Southern Nigeria that is only the South East zone that has not tasted the presidency.

“So, that gives much weight to the demand you are making now. Yes, in PDP, they are considering whether it will be North or South. No, in our own, as gentlemen, we have already agreed in South”, he said.

Ngige said he waited till after spiritual season of lent to enable him consult God in order not to make mistakes before declaring his intention about the presidency.

“In December 31, 2021, I told a group that after the spiritual season of lent, I will consult with my God, Angel and Arch-Angels. Easter is tomorrow and Easter is a resurrection day. We shall rise with the resurrection and after Easter Monday, I will make a pronouncement on my journey to the presidency.

“So we have done the consultation with mortal and immortal people and we are going to speak, but make no mistake again, anything to be shared, if it is seven, it should be shared equally. If you collect first, collect second and collect again without others collecting, that’s where the problem comes”, he added.

While commending the group for believing in him, Ngige said, “I am inviting you on Tuesday to Alor, in Idemili South, that’s where I am going to unveil my intention for the Presidency.”

On the possibility of the South East aspirants presenting a consensus candidate, Ngige said, “the issue of consensus candidate has not arisen now. You have to wait untill when all the declarations have been made. Not only the declaration, the buying of forms, when the forms have been bought and expression of interest. That is the official first step on declaration.

“So, after declaration of interest the people will buy the forms and fill, some people will buy form for some people too, but that’s when the question for consensus will arise. So until we get to that bridge, we will cross it.”

On his part, leader of the group Comr, Tony Chime, said the call for Ngige to contest for the number one post of the country was predicated on his track record in governance.

Chime said that though so many people have queued for the position, however, none of them meets their criteria for the position other than Ngige.

“We know the good things you have done in the south East and Nigeria in general. Our appeal is that you should come and contest for the President of Nigeria.

“We know that there are too many people queueing up for this position, but we have screened them individually and collectively, but we have not found the material we need, hence we are here to appeal to you our brother, father and son to come and deliver us from the problem we are having in this country”, said Chime.
