A Nigerian woman  eyeing  the presidency of Spain has said  she said she is in the race to draw attention to Africa and to earn respect for Africans.

In an interview with TheNEWS on Friday, Helen, 45 years old , said she is giving the ambition all it deserves, doing sensitisation among the Spanish people and the over six million immigrants living in the country.

“We are working  very hard. We have started the sensitisation work. Our objective is not just to win. Even if we can get just a seat in Congress, it is a big achievement”, said Helen  who compares her efforts with that of Barack Obama in the United States, the African-American, who defied the odds to win the US presidency in 2008.

Helen also sees herself as a pioneer in Obama’s mould and rates her chances very high. “I believe we are going to win the votes of 6 million immigrants in the country who have the right to vote and the votes of millions of other Spanish people by the time we start campaign”, she said.

“I am doing this for Africa. I am trying to open the doors to Africans in Europe, because there has not been any African vying for the highest office in Europe”.

The 2015 Spanish general election would hold on or before Sunday, December the 20th, 2015
